December 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

December

Overview. Until the 22nd, the Sun illuminates your solar first house, highlighting your personal interests and initiatives. You are feeling quite independent during this cycle–not content to take a back seat to anyone, nor to follow anyone’s lead but your own. You are likely to feel more confident and vital now, and you tend to make a distinct impression on others during this cycle. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage. It’s a great period to do something entirely new and pioneeringto go solo in some area of your life. Now’s the time to make a presentation, particularly from the 8-15, when Mercury is on your Sun and you make yourself perfectly clearand others listen to you with rapt attention!

From the 22nd, the Sun spotlights your solar second house, and turns your attention to issues surrounding your personal finances, possessions, comfort, and value system. You have practical matters on your mind during this cycle. Security is a driving force for you right now, and you might find that you are especially interested in accumulating possessions. Pour your energy into your work and your finances, and you might just be able to take your ideas to the bank. Extravagance with your pocketbook is something you may want to look out for, especially with impulsive Mars in your sign most of the month! If you find yourself itching to make unnecessary purchases, know that at the root of this urge is the desire to pamper and comfort yourself. Nothing wrong with it, but there are inexpensive (and even free) ways to make yourself feel good. You are not in a risk-taking frame of mind for the most part now. Your eye is on security, comfort, and longevity.

In the first half of the month, enthusiastic energy and a brand new, exciting perspective is brought to your personal initiatives. You are feeling extraordinarily enthusiastic. You are fairly busting at the seams with ideas. You might start a new venture or solve a problem now that previously left you stumped. You should probably watch a tendency towards being too blunt with others, however! With Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter teaming up directly on your Sun (or Ascendant), you are feeling like the world is your oyster.

The ball is in your court this month, and it’s up to you how to handle it. You are enjoying a surge of optimism. The more positive energy you radiate, the more opportunities open up. While youve been uncharacteristically withdrawn much of the year, you are now more willing to experience life to its fullest. You attract the right people and the right resources, and encounters with others are consistently working to your advantage. A partner has an important revelation around the 4th. Reasonable speculation may pay off around the 10th.

This month, three inner planets (the Sun, Mercury, and Venus) align with Pluto and also form a harmonious trine to Saturn. With Saturn in your solar ninth and Pluto in your solar first, opportunities abound to spread your word, expand your mind, and broaden your audience. Others are likely to turn to you for advice. Teaching may play a big role in your life now and into 2007. Authors will find a broader audience. Trips could be especially rewarding for you–they can provide a pleasant breather from pressures in your life. This link is a long-term trend that occurs again next August and is in effect until then. Determination, perseverance, and a deep sense of purposefulness are brought to your life and your creative projects. The dates when you could see initial benefits in December occur on the 6-8, 16-18, and 24-25.

Your ruler, Jupiter, connects by conjunction with both Mercury and Mars on the 9-12, and by declination for the first half of the month. This brings opportunities to assert your personal influence, begin a new project, present your case, spread your word, and to go solo in some area of your life. Your communication powers are excellent now. You are likely to have an important conversation or receive long-awaited news. Jupiter also forms a sextile to Chiron from the 22-31, bringing healing energy into your life. You are accepted “as is” during this period–no need to explain or prove yourself. Humble confidence will take you everywhere. You should also experience power days when the Sun, Mercury, and Venus align with Pluto in your sign on the 7-8, 17-18, and 25th. The only red flag period for your ruler this month is a minor one, occurring on the 28-29, when over-indulgence could set you back temporarily. You might have a brief feeling of being underappreciated on those days.

Finances begin to become more significant in your life towards the end of the month, when the Sun and Mercury join Venus in your money sector. The most opportune periods of the month for finances include the 1-3, 5-7, 16-17, and 24. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 4th, 18-19, and 30. Minor financial problems may be part of the picture on these dates.

Romantic and creative matters are rather strong for you in December. Opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 8-13, 26-27, and 30-31. These periods represent power days for personal magnetism, charisma, and creativity. Issues that could be annoying or disconcerting concerning romantic matters are more likely to occur on the 20-22–love is unpredictable on these days. Of course, these would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. Close partnership matters run well on the 9-10, 12, 19, and 25th; and could be challenging on the 4th, 15th, 22, and 29.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 1, 6-8, and 19-20. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 12-13, 18, and 28-31, when you should avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible. Matters related to your career and reputation are strong on the 9-12, 19, and 25th–a power period for all career matters–and somewhat challenging on the 4, 15, 22, and 29.

Venus leaves your sign and warms your solar second house from the 11th. As the natural ruler of this sector of the chart, Venus feels right “at home” here. This is a rather content position for Venus, although there can be some restlessness when it comes to money and spending it–you are more inclined to want more things around you! Financial security and enjoyment of the good things in life are important to you, although you also value simple pleasures. The ability to relate well with others might enhance your own personal finances during this period. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of financial matters with social or public affairs. This is a stable position for love matters and close relationships. You value those who make you feel comfortable, and the familiar is more important to you than someone new during this cycle.

Mercury enters your solar first house on the 8th of the month and continues its transit here until the 27th. This is a cycle in which you tend to talk more readily, particularly about your own personal likes and dislikes or your personal past. Your demeanor is light-hearted and curious, and others might turn to you for advice, as you tend to be more rational than usual. This is the time of year when you can most easily use the power of words to attract what you want for yourself. Your honesty and willingness to communicate openly impresses others. If you are in a profession dealing with words, ideas, or communications, this is a very positive and fruitful time for you. An active and restless spirit prevails, which stimulates many changes in personal affairs. Your mind is constantly assimilating facts and figures. There are times when you could find it difficult to turn the thinking process off, especially at bedtime when a good night’s sleep is most important. Study, mental activity paper work, letter writing, skilled manual dexterity, or frequent short trips may dominate much of your free time. Always maintain a positive state of mind. Negative thoughts can easily act on the health of your body.

Mercury moves to your solar second house on the 27th. As the planet of communication (verbal and non-verbal), this is an indication of taking a strong interest in your personal finances. You might play with various ways to increase personal funds, resulting in more than one avenue for monetary gain. Avoid letting pressure from others push you into signing important papers that may create a serious financial commitment. Shopping when experiencing nervous tension should also be avoided. Your mind is always active with new ideas for an increase of income during this cycle. Brothers or sisters, or communications, may be a source of financial or material gain or loss now. This is a strong period for analyzing your cash flow, income, and earning power. You are more practical and rational in your approach to finances now. With your conscious mind focused on money and possessions, as well as personal values, this can be a strong period for gathering new money-making ideas. Alternatively, it could be a time when you tend to fret over your finances. Conversations tend to be practical rather than frivolous now. Financial gain may come through communications.

Mars enters your solar first house on the 6th, where its energy is especially dynamic. Pioneering activities are what capture your attention during this cycle that began for you near the end of November. It’s natural to lead during this period, not to follow others’ lead! You are very decisive, energetic, and headstrong. This is a time when you simply won’t take no for an answer. Taking action comes naturally now. You are able to stand your ground and assert yourself more than usual during this transit. You have energy at your disposal to move your plans forward, and you are more enterprising. You want to leave your mark on the world in some way–however big or small–and you are more able to make an impression than usual. If circumstances are such, you are able to easily fight back. In fact, you may be somewhat combative under this influence, and you may have a short temper. Avoid being pushy. Take charge of your life, but don’t bulldoze over others in the process! This is an excellent transit for assertiveness and physical vitality. Love affairs may also be stepped up during this period. On the rare occasion when an accident occurs, it is more likely to involve the head or face.

The biggest news is Jupiter joining with your Sun (or Ascendant) this month! This brings your easygoing yet adventurous nature to the fore, and you are feeling fantastic. Overall, the best periods of the month for you are the 8-20, when you very easily take charge and experience direct and natural confidence in your abilities to get your message across and to take the initiative. Grab opportunities to advance your career, enjoy romance, or to boost your reputation around the 9-12.

Highlights:

November 30-December 1 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

December 2-3 Hard aspects operative now include Sun-Uranus, Venus-Chiron, and Mercury-Saturn. Negative thinking and expectations, as well as a generally rebellious mood, are not conducive to easy relating. Avoid pushing matters just now. Family matters may demand attention, and putting aside a personal interest may be necessary. Challenges could also arise with a close partner.

December 4 Full Moon in Gemini in your solar seventh house. Some sort of fulfillment, culmination, or revelation regarding your desires or new initiatives at the last New Moon on November 20th occurs now. The New Moon was all about you. Now it’s time to strike a balance with an “other”. The seventh house represents an important one-to-one relationship–a marriage partner, significant other, business partner, or an adversary. It’s time to strike a balance between your own needs and those of another. It’s time to compromise and negotiate. Partnership “tests” are possible now, but so is a chance to truly connect to a special someone in your life.

December 4-5 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

December 6-8 Venus joins with Pluto and trines Saturn. Passions are strong and intense, but controlled. A new sense of responsibility in our social relationships is with us, and it’s of a pleasant variety–we feel renewed, committed, and dedicated. Solid proof of commitment gives us a deep feeling of purposefulness and meaning. An opportunity to stabilize and strengthen a social or romantic bond arises now. In your case, this configuration occurs in your personal initiatives and adventure sectors, making this a strong opportunity period for expressing yourself in a more authentic manner, for travel or other mind-expanding endeavors, and for going solo with a personal initiative. Relationships are imbued with a deep sense of trust, maturity, and respect now, particularly due to your own projection of confidence, reliability, and sincerity. Sincerity and depth are most important to you just now. New responsibilities concerning your personal commitments may arrive now, but they give you a strong sense of meaning and purposefulness. This is also a strong opportunity period for work and health matters and friendships.

December 9-12 Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter align, and the Sun sextiles Neptune. Tremendous enthusiasm, newfound vigor, and optimism characterize this period. We are inspired, hungry for new experiences, and eager to share our ideas with others. You are feeling extraordinarily enthusiastic. You are fairly busting at the seams with ideas. You might start a new venture or solve a problem now that previously left you stumped. You should probably watch a tendency towards being too blunt with others, however!

December 11-12 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

December 15-18 The Sun joins with Pluto and trines Saturn; Mercury squares Uranus; Venus sesquiquadrates Saturn. The best way to use this energy to your advantage would be to focus on your commitment to your long-term goals. Hold off on major decision-making, saving it for a more auspicious time. Working on projects already in progress with an eye to your future is best now; research is especially rewarding. Ideally, you should be focusing on your commitment to taking a break from the routine. Wait until after the New Moon on the 20th, however, to begin new initiatives, particularly those that involve career matters. Focus on research for the time being. Avoid financial initiatives if possible. While you may be able to solidify travel plans now, your partnerships may be unpredictable at best, and you could also be taken off guard by new responsibilities on the job and feelings of being unappreciated by friends.

December 18-19 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

December 19-20 Venus sextiles Uranus and Mercury sextiles Neptune. Pay special attention to your intuition now. We happily embrace all that is new, unusual, and out-of-the-ordinary during this period. For you, this is a strong period for personal finances. Strong and pleasant communications with or from a family member could figure now. A pleasant surprise is likely.

December 20 New Moon in late Sagittarius in your solar first house affects you until the next New Moon. This New Moon carries with it the potential for tremendous growth and transformation. This cycle represents an opportunity to find ways to transcend the mundane details of day-to-day life and nurture our faith, commitment, hope, and vision. This New Moon placement is a powerful oneit’s a time to reinvent yourself in some personal way, such as with a new look or manner of expressing and presenting yourself. This is a personally busy time of year, when you feel energetic and enthusiastic. Think about how you present yourself to others, focus on changing personal habits in such a way as to improve your confidence in yourself, and concentrate on putting your best foot forward, as this is a time when you will get noticed and make a personal impression on others. However, factor in the importance of authenticity in your presentation of yourself. You do not have to, of course, reveal all of yourself to others, but the sign of Aries associated with the first house reminds us of the importance of acting on our impulses and believing in ourselves. This is a time when you can be brave and enjoy new experiences.

December 20-21 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

December 21-22 Mars squares Uranus. It’s challenging to focus on any one particular task. Rebelliousness and impatience with rules and restrictions could get the best of us. There could be some tension with family, such as new responsibilities to loved ones that get in the way of your personal initiatives. Unpredictable events on the romantic front or with your children, if applicable, could leave you feeling insecure or frustrated. Avoid stirring up more trouble than necessary now–many people aren’t in the most cooperative of moods.

December 24-25 Mercury joins with Pluto and trines Saturn. This is a time when we may share ideas, feelings, or thoughts that we normally keep hidden. Research brings rewards, new insights into old problems invites progress, and the uncovering of previously hidden information is inspiring. Thoughts, ideas, and communications are more intense and focused. We are more able, and motivated, to find hidden meanings and to cut to the chase. Efficiency and relevancy become important. This is an especially strong period for you in terms of gaining insight into partnerships and career matters. An eye-opening conversation or discovery may figure now. Very strong partnership and/or career opportunities arise now.

December 27-28 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

December 28-29 Hard aspects operative now include Venus-Jupiter and Mercury-Neptune. Jupiter sextiles Chiron. This is a dreamy period when pie-in-the-sky thinking tends to dominate. Excess is a strong inclination, with little thought about the consequences! While you may enjoy some wonderful conversations and opportunities to make friends, some feelings of being unappreciated are possible now. Enjoy yourself, but avoid going over the top.

December 31-January 1 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

Sagittarius (Born November 23 to December 2) AND Sagittarius Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Sagittarius:

November 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

November

Overview. Until the 22nd, the Sun continues to “hibernate” in your privacy sector, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have–to things, people, and routines–and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break. It’s not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it’s a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries. Situations that have naturally outgrown their usefulness in your life can now be put behind you. Endings of natural cycles may be part of the picture at this time of year. Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house on the 22nd.

From the 22nd, the Sun illuminates your solar first house, bringing issues surrounding your personal identity, appearance, outward behavior, and self-expression to the forefront. This marks the height of your physical solar cycle, and you are in the position to make an impression on others, and to assert your personal influence beyond its normal boundaries. Spontaneity of expression is what this transit is about. You are ready to put your past behind you and to start a new personal cycle. You have presence and you project confidence. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage. It’s a great month to do something entirely new and pioneeringto go solo in some area of your life. This particular season of the year smiles on your personal endeavors. This is a time when you more easily get in touch with a true sense of your identity and purpose. The most enterprising side of your nature pushes up and out, and it’s time to seize opportunities. Problems in your life may be overcome by bravery, self-assertion, and directness. There’s nothing wrong with a bit of self-centeredness during this cycle, but avoid taking it too far. It’s not the best time for team work and other cooperative endeavors. The spotlight is on you and your ability to lead, so make it a good one! Take steps to improve how you come across to others. It’s time to carve your own path in life.

Jupiters entrance into your sign in the last week of the month is fabulous news. Its the beginning of a year-long cycle in which you are more confident, generous, and successful. Its an excellent period for recognition, financial and legal matters, and commercial affairs. You have a new vision for your life, and youre bound to stumble upon new ways to broaden your horizons. Until then, life is quiet for you as you naturally pull back from the rat race. Rest well for busier times to come.

There is a rare preponderance of planets (the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter) in the sign of Scorpio in the first approximately three weeks of November, placing strong emphasis on your privacy sector. This allows you to focus on one area of your life, but it can also incline you to obsess on the same! In your case, private and spiritual matters capture much of your attention. Some of these planets (the Sun, Venus, and Jupiter) enter Sagittarius in the last week of the month, and a shift occurs towards emphasis on personal initiative. From the 19-23, some key astrological events give us a shot of adrenaline–Uranus turns direct, the New Moon occurs late in the sign of Scorpio, the Sun and Jupiter align, also late in the sign of Scorpio, and Jupiter enters Sagittarius.

Uranus direct on the 19th gives us all a blast of electric energy. Moving forward in your fourth house, and as the ruler of your third, this suggests new energy is brought to your relationships with family, domestic matters, home, property, communications, learning, transportation, and your personal sense of security. Stagnation in these areas begins to lift. A new insight about your domestic life could figure. Alternatively, an unforeseen encounter with a family member, an unexpected domestic change, or an unexpected communication could be part of the picture in the weeks surrounding the 19th. Uranus always acts to disrupt the status quo, often bringing surprising or erratic events.

Jupiter entering Sagittarius is particularly beneficial for you, as Jupiter is now moving onto your Sun and entering your first house. Jupiter changes sign approximately once a year, so this ingress is significant and represents a new shift of energy that will stay with us until December 2007. From now until December 2007, this transit brings noticeable improvements to your environment and self-confidence to your personality. Your personality is more expansive and enthusiastic. This transit heightens your optimism and generosity. This has the potential for being a relaxed, fortunate, and hopeful time. Events occur that help you to overcome problems that previously seemed challenging or even insurmountable. You are able to further your personal ambitions with more ease. At times, you may feel like the sky is the limit! You might need to guard against becoming too puffed-up and full of yourself, however. There is also a risk of overindulgence and other forms of extreme behavior. Be careful that your expansiveness doesn’t expand your waistline! These positive circumstances won’t necessarily fall into your lap, and are unlikely to come all at once, although they are more likely due to Jupiter’s direct influence on your life. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life.

Mercury remains retrograde in Scorpio until November 17th. Mercury retrograde cycles are periods when communications and transportation matters don’t go as smoothly as usual. All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications with bosses or in your career in general, as well as communications with a close partner, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Occurring in your solar twelfth house this cycle, you may find that you are less able to rely on your intuition. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with close partners or authority figures during this cycle; or, better yet, take this time to rethink these issues before talking about them prematurely. Also, it’s best not to sign on the dotted line for the time being, especially business contracts or marriages! In the weeks following the 17th, these matters begin to move forward. Mercury leaves its storm on the 22nd, when “all things Mercury” tend to resume near-normal pace, and leaves its shadow on December 4th. From the 22nd to December 4th, we have a chance to revisit matters that may have stumped or annoyed us while Mercury was retrograde.

Your ruler, Jupiter, is in very good shape this month. When Jupiter forms positive aspects to planets, opportunity periods surface for you. This month, these occur on the 5-7, when good news or a good idea could figure; the 11-17, when love, charm, and romantic opportunities figure; the 20-22, which is an excellent period for just about anything; and the 27-30, when personal courage, initiative, and magnetism are at a high. Jupiter does not form any challenging aspects this month, so there are no general red flag periods to report.

Financial matters are not as prosperous this month. Red flag periods for finances, when it’s better not to plunge forward on new financial initiatives, and when some minor financial strains are more likely to occur, are on the 1-2, 12-13, 16-17, and 27-29.

Romantic and creative matters are very private this month. Opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 11th, when something or someone from the past could resurface, and the 27-30. These periods represent power days for personal magnetism, charisma, and creativity. Small issues that could be annoying or disconcerting concerning romantic matters are more likely to occur on the 6-9 and 16-18. Of course, these would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. Close partnership matters experience a few hiccups during Mercury’s retrograde, although they go better on the 11th and 21-23; and could be more challenging on the 1-2 and the 7-8.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 1-2, 15-16, 21st, and 30-December 1st. Red flag periods for these matters occur on the 6-7, 12-13, and 25-27, when you should avoid scheduling health appointments or job interviews if feasible.

Venus warms your privacy sector until the 17th. Matters of the heart touch you deeply. You may willingly play a supportive role to a partner, offering him or her more compassion and selfless love. If a romance were to begin during this period, it would likely be a private or even secret one. What you don’t know might just be helping you right now, because what’s happening behind your back is moving in your favor and all will come out happily when your dreams become a reality soon enough. Venus comes out of “hiding” on the 17th, when your emotions will be on your sleeve. Before that, laying low is best in the love department.

Venus plays in your solar first house from the 17th. During this trend, a strong desire for companionship and sociability dominates. You want to maintain peace and harmony at all costs. You try to be just and fair when making decisions, as you do your best to see both sides of an issue. Women are likely to enter your life, helping or hindering personal or business affairs. You prefer the company of others, rather than going it alone. Others notice and perhaps admire you for your pleasant and cheerful personality. This is good for your ego, endowing greater self-esteem and an excellent opinion of yourself. This renewed popularity increases success, for you have the tact and diplomacy to deal with people well. Attention is placed on personal appearance, with an interest in jewelry, hairstyling, and clothing. You are more bold in your love nature, yet not aggressive either. You make friends easily during this cycle, and you are especially fond of love and admiration. Artistic self-expression is important, possibly through music, clothing or writing.

Mercury, the planet of communication, continues to activate your solar twelfth house all month. Your mental and communicative energies are turned inward. On a positive level, you may search for spiritual truth and mental enlightenment. Creative endeavors could flourish now, particularly those that draw upon the emotions or that require creative visualization skills, such as poetry, art, acting, and other such activities. You are likely to require a certain amount of solitude, or even periods of seclusion, in order to get your thoughts together or to be productive. You are less likely to chat indiscriminately during this transit, and tend to be a little secretive or tight-lipped for the time being. This may be important, in fact, because this position is sometimes associated with the uncovering of secrets, so discretion may be in order. Its a good time to do research. Running a fine-toothed comb over events from the past could help you to better understand the present. The only caution here is that Mercury is retrograde and then its storm until the 22nd, when communications can be challenging or awkward and decision-making foggy.

Mars brings dynamic energy to your solar twelfth house all month. This is the time to research and reflect upon your goals. It can be a time when past actions catch up with you–and this is not necessarily a bad thing! It could also be a time when much of your energy is channeled into private matters, or when you prefer that others not observe what you are doing. This is natural–you may just as well do your best work alone for now. Unconscious behavior patterns could influence the way you assert yourself. Some may experience insomnia during this phase, especially if they are not allowing themselves the chance to recoup and if they are not letting their intuition serve them. Others may enjoy a more active dreaming life (this includes day-dreaming), and, if allowed to run free, the imagination can serve them very well, especially with regards to goals and new concepts.

As planets begin to pile-up in your sign towards the end of the month, the heat is on, and it feels good. Before that, laying low is something that tends to come naturally, and that is also quite necessary. Get your rest, clean out the skeletons in your closet, end projects or habits that have run their natural course, pay attention to your dreaming mind, and listen to your intuition.

Highlights:

November 1-3 Venus and the Sun trine Uranus, and Mercury retrograde squares Saturn. Although we are likely to revisit tense discussions and topics that occurred on October 22-23, this is a strong period for new ways of approaching old problems. For you, it’s an excellent period to listen to your inner muse, reflect on potential new projects, and avoid at all costs harping on insignificant matters, especially with a partner.

November 2-3 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

November 5 Full Moon in Taurus in your solar sixth house. This Full Moon is emotionally passionate and potentially creative, but disillusionments may be part of the picture. Some sort of fulfillment, culmination, or revelation regarding your heart’s desire at the last New Moon on October 22nd occurs now. You look in the mirror and say, “That’s it! I’m starting that exercise program”. You crush out a cigarette with disgust and decide to quit smoking. You throw up your arms and say that you can’t take how your boss has been treating you. These are just some examples of a Full Moon transiting your sixth house. If it activates other personal planets, or if it’s an eclipse, the more intense or dramatic your proclamations will be. Of course, you don’t necessarily need to burst forth with emotional declarations, especially if you plan in advance. Avoid blaming others for your own state of discontent. You can use this surge of emotional energy to make positive changes to your routines. Do something to improve your work conditions if they are annoying you–even if it’s a small act of kindness with a co-worker or bringing in something to brighten up your desk or office. Get going on your exercise or nutrition program that you’ve been toying with in your mind. This may also be a time when a work project comes to fruition or completion.

November 6-7 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

November 6-9 With the Sun, Mercury, and Venus square Neptune during this period, we need to be wary of anything that looks too good to be true. Disappointments, disillusionments, foggy thinking, and wishful thinking are all strong possibilities now, and can affect our relationships, finances, communications, and more. This is a red flag period for all. For you, ambiguous feelings and uncertainties may temporarily undermine your confidence. Confusing or disappointing news may come your way. Concerns about or problems with partnerships and your career and reputation may be present now. Take this time to examine whether wishful thinking has been clouding your judgment, and take steps to see things more clearly.

November 13-14 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

November 15-16 Venus conjuncts Jupiter, and we have a taste for “the finer things” in life. Generosity, tolerance, and sociability come naturally, and so does over-indulgence in life’s pleasures. With your ruler involved and occurring in your privacy sector, a reward for past efforts or from a hidden/unexpected source may be part of the picture now. This is a very strong period for attraction.

November 17-18 The Sun squares Saturn and Mars squares Neptune. Mercury is stationary direct. Caution is in order – this is a red flag period for all. We are not seeing things clearly, and new initiatives should be avoided until after the New Moon on the 20th. You may receive disappointing news, or you could face a challenge involving your creativity or a romantic matter.

November 20 New Moon in late Scorpio in your solar twelfth house affects you until the next New Moon. This New Moon aligns with good luck Jupiter, but also squares Saturn. This cycle represents an opportunity to rid ourselves of the “junk” in our lives–material and spiritual. This is a period of review, letting go, and recharging one’s spiritual and, in effect, physical “batteries”. Focus, now, is on fulfillment through service, empathy, and awareness of other’s needs; but it can also be a time of withdrawal and some sort of retreat in a social sense, depending on your personal and natural predisposition. Some kind of soul-searching is in order, and the urge to find some level of emotional peace of mind will be apparent. This is a more sensitive position of the New Moon, and it is best to find some sort of peace for the soul in preparation for the New Moon in the first housea period that is more active and busy than this one.

November 20-23 The Sun conjuncts Jupiter, Venus sextiles Chiron, Mercury trines Uranus, and Uranus turns direct. Power days for all. Electric energy, faithfulness, bright ideas, optimism, the desire to break out and experience more from life. This is a time to break free from limiting circumstances and to start something new. For you, others are taking notice, and you are feeling spiritually strong. A reward for past efforts may come to you now.

November 21-22 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

November 23-24 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

November 26-28 Venus squares Uranus, Mars squares Saturn. Watch for impulsive attractions. We may have to face the consequences of past behavior now. Forcing matters only brings resistance and frustrations. Opposition from loved ones, or a feeling of being held back due to responsibilities, is possible now.

Sagittarius (Born November 23 to December 2) AND Sagittarius Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Sagittarius:

October 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

October

Overview. Until the 23rd, the Sun illuminates your solar eleventh house. It’s a sociable sector, and that’s exactly how you are feeling–happy, lighthearted, and social. You’re more detached than usual, as you tend to intellectualize things in your life these days. Conferences or other gatherings that are related to future developments and/or shared ideals and interests succeed for you at this time. You may lead, facilitate, or organize an important group function. A lively agenda is promised, you’re attracting quite a bit of interest, and your energy for making contact with others is strong. Personal relationships take on a fun, if impersonal, tone now. Activities with children increase. You are more stimulated by all that is unconventional during this cycle, and your ideas are original and progressive now. From the 13th, some down time is in order. Before that, enjoy your lively calendar!

From the 23rd, the Sun “hibernates” in your solar twelfth house. This is a time when you recharge your batteries, rest up, reflect, and perhaps close matters that have run their natural course. During this cycle, a sense of personal fulfillment is reinforced by resolving subconscious influences or matters from the past. You will instinctively withdraw from the hustle and bustle of daily life in an attempt to get to know yourself, your goals, and your needs better. This is an imaginative, perhaps dreamy, time of the year. Some may indulge in self-pity at this time, but as long as they pull strength from it, it might simply be a healthy process. You need time alone now in order to sort things out and to avoid overload!

A pleasantly busy agenda keeps you on the move and in social demand most of the month. Friends need your attention, and you are happy to lend a hand. A romantic matter blossoms around the 7th. More serious issues crop up by the 22nd, when you may need to close a deal or finalize an important project that has run its course. The need to negotiate and compromise with a partner could put a damper on the fun, but is necessary in order for you to move forward with a lighter load.

Your ruler, Jupiter, forms mostly awkward aspects this month. On the 2-3, overindulgence is possible, but is really a sign that you might be unhappy or feeling unappreciated. Jupiter’s parallel to Mercury from the 7-11 suggests a mentally active period when you may be called upon to speak or voice your opinions. From the 22-27, Jupiter conjuncts Mercury but also squares Saturn. You tend to see road blocks and obstacles to your goals now. You could face skepticism and doubt from within yourself and/or from others. Listen to the voice of prudence and caution, and do not attempt to press forward prematurely. Instead, pull back and see the flaws that can be worked on. Focus on repairs, strengthening weak areas, cleaning up and refining your presentation. Beware of letting negative voices dampen your spirits, however. Caution definitely is in order, but it doesn’t have to bring you down by any means. This could also manifest as problems with a partner, or increased responsibilities with a partnership.

Jupiter in your twelfth house squares Saturn in your ninth house from the 18-31. We’re forced to do things by the book during this phase, but may not want to. This is not the time to take shortcuts–they won’t work. When we think in big terms, or if we have the urge to expand, we confront obstacles or face reality. Some re-structuring of our lives and of our business goals is now in order. We may be looking for new challenges, sometimes because we are forced to do so (because things are not going exactly as we had planned). We have a desire to grow and expand, but our attitude is tempered with some caution and feelings of restriction. There is no “easy fix” just now. It is best to breathe new life into old plans rather than to strike out with a new plan altogether. Take steps to grow, but don’t overextend yourself at this time or you are bound to face frustrations. You are best off eliminating something in order to improve the overall quality of your life. This aspect can play out in a number of different ways in your life, affecting issues surrounding higher education, travel, legal matters, and adventure (where demands or restrictions are present or required) on one hand, and private matters, spirituality, the past, karma, and compassionate service (where the urge to expand and enjoy is great) on the other. For example, the inability to further your education, travel, or embark on truly adventurous endeavors could prevent an overall feeling of spiritual liberation or contentment.

Mercury turns retrograde in Scorpio on the 28th. This Mercury retrograde cycle lasts until November 17th. Mercury retrograde cycles are periods when communications and transportation matters don’t go as smoothly as usual. All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications with bosses or in your career in general, as well as communications with a close partner, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Occurring in your solar twelfth house this cycle, you may find that you are less able to rely on your intuition. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with close partners or authority figures during this cycle; or, better yet, take this time to rethink these issues before talking about them prematurely. Also, it’s best not to sign on the dotted line for the time being, especially business contracts or marriages!

Financial matters are quite strong this month, and opportunities are likely to surface. It will be up to you to recognize and act upon them, as they are unlikely to simply fall into your lap. These strong periods occur from the 11-13, 15-16, and the 18th. A friend or group could figure strongly. Another strong period for finances occurs on the 31st. The periods of the month when more caution is needed surrounding finances include the 5-6 and 22-27.

Around the time of the Full Moon on the 6-7, romantic matters could reach a head (although creative projects may feature instead). Opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 3-5, 11-13, 14-16, and 20-26. These periods represent true power days for personal magnetism, charisma, and creativity. This is a month when you can attract or enhance a casual romantic relationship. Small issues that could be annoying or disconcerting concerning romantic matters are more likely to occur on the 16-18, when a lover may be displaying erratic or rebellious behavior, and the 29-31, when either of you is misunderstood or self-protective when it comes to displays of affection. This is a time when others don’t really see you in the best light.

As far as close partnerships are concerned, care should be taken in the last week of the month when your partnership ruler, Mercury, slows down and then turns retrograde. Good days for partnership matters occur on the 10-11. More challenging days for partnerships include the 5th, 8-9 (suspicions could get the best of you or your partner), and 21-25. The 21-25 could involve giving up something in order to gain something else. It’s actually a “mixed bag” period, when some things look promising, but they often are at the expense of something else.

Better times to schedule job interviews or health appointments, and for success and happiness on the job, occur on the 3-5, 11-16, and 20-26. Big developments on the job or with your health are likely to arise in this latter period. Less favorable days for these matters include the 17-18 and 29-30.

Venus transits your sociable eleventh house until the 24th. The areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through forming harmonious, warm social friendships – probably related to group activities within a club. You may meet someone through such group activities; consequently, your interests will be shared. Whether or not you do, the bottom line is that sharing interests with someone is what makes you happy during this cycle. Venus here enlivens your friendships and group associations with charm and grace. You are more peace-loving than usual and slightly detached on a personal level. If a romance were to occur during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.

Venus transits your privacy sector — the solar twelfth house — from the 24th. During this cycle, expressions of affection and your love life tend to be quiet or private for you. A lover or close friend may lean on you a little now, requesting a little more compassion and understanding. Alternatively, you could experience a temporary lull in your love life, perhaps even closing a relationship that has run its course. Your unselfishness towards lovers and close friends is powered by your sensitivity to other people’s circumstances and a mystical inclination toward life during this cycle. If a new relationship were to begin during this period, it would be characterized by some level of privacy and perhaps a feeling of being fated. This is not a time of great confidence on a romantic level, and you may choose to bury your true feelings for the time being in order to avoid the risk of rejection or disappointment. Others take this time to regenerate and come into touch with their most deeply-rooted needs for affection and romance.

Mercury moves through your privacy sector from the 2nd. Your mental and communicative energies are turned inward during this period. On a positive level, you may search for spiritual truth and mental enlightenment. Creative endeavors could flourish now, particularly those that draw upon the emotions or that require creative visualization skills, such as poetry, art, acting, and other such activities. You are likely to require a certain amount of solitude, or even periods of seclusion, in order to get your thoughts together or to be productive. You are less likely to chat indiscriminately during this transit, and tend to be a little secretive or tight-lipped for the time being. This may be important, in fact, because this position is sometimes associated with the uncovering of secrets, so discretion may be in order. Its a good time to do research. Running a fine-toothed comb over events from the past could help you to better understand the present.

Until the 24th, Mars transits your eleventh house. Group activities and cooperative efforts are the best way to achieve your goals right now. In fact, you have all sorts of ideas about what you want to do. Avoid allowing the ego to attempt to dominate others. You prefer to lead a group rather than follow during this period, and there are certainly ways to do so without stepping on others’ toes. As well, the best way to achieve your goals during this period is to work as a team, or to at least to do some networking. You may have more energy than usual to want to organize projects. Your humanitarian impulse may be stimulated. The role you play for other people in your life becomes the focus. You may feel that your schedule gets overloaded at this time with things to do (usually for others).

Mars moving through your privacy sector from the 24th suggests that this is a cycle in which “down time” is necessary. This is the time to research and reflect upon your goals. It can be a time when past actions catch up with you–and this is not necessarily a bad thing! It could also be a time when much of your energy is channeled into private matters, or when you prefer that others not observe what you are doing. This is natural–you may just as well do your best work alone for now. Unconscious behavior patterns could influence the way you assert yourself. Some may experience insomnia during this phase, especially if they are not allowing themselves the chance to recoup and if they are not letting their intuition serve them. Others may enjoy a more active dreaming life (this includes day-dreaming), and, if allowed to run free, the imagination can serve them very well, especially with regards to goals and new concepts.

Highlights:

September 30-October 1 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

October 3-5 Mars trines Neptune and Venus trines Chiron. This combination is spiritual, heartwarming, and compassionate. It’s an excellent period for enhancing and healing relationships, as well as for expressing compassion and understanding. We act on our intuition now and our creative impulses are potent. We are less tense and driven, and more relaxed. “What will be, will be” is the attitude. Inspiration can be found. The arts and anything that requires relying on intuition and imagination are favored. This period is strong for you in terms of networking and communications. It’s also a good time for romance and creativity.

October 6-7 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

October 6-7 Full Moon in Aries in your solar fifth house. This Full Moon is emotionally passionate, self-centered, aggressive, and potentially creative. Some sort of fulfillment, culmination, or revelation regarding your heart’s desire at the last New Moon on September 22nd occurs on or in the days surrounding this Full Moon. You want to have fun, and the demands of your larger goals in life may have been eclipsing your pleasure-seeking activities. It can be hard to find time for everything you want to do, but without creative self-expression (be it romantic or playful), you simply won’t feel complete. It’s time to do something self-expressive, fun, and creative. You may be required to complete a creative project at this time. You could feel an overwhelming need to pour your heart out to a lover, or a romantic affair reaches some sort of epiphany. There could be a whirlwind of activity surrounding your child or children.

October 9-11 The Sun trines Neptune, Mercury trines Uranus, and Mars sextiles Saturn. This combination of influences can produce epiphanies and dreamy ideals that may actually bear weight in the real world. We’re at the right place at the right time, probably because our hunches are more likely to be correct and we are “tuned in”. This is a most opportune time for self-improvement programs or efforts. This is an opportune time to attend meetings and other organized group activities, to communicate online, and to take part in activities involving computers, scientific projects, and metaphysics. Unexpected gains may be realized through such mediums. The intuition is strong, and insights seem to come from “out of the blue”. Original, creative ideas are easy to come by. Work takes on definite shape, and we can see results from our efforts. This gives us a sense of responsibility and a feeling of directedness and purposefulness. For you, you could get good news about a friend or group association. This is a good period for wise speculation. Travel plans may be clinched now. It’s an ideal time to open up a personal, sensitive, or intimate conversation with someone close to you, especially regarding the past.

October 10-11 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

October 13-16 Venus trines Neptune, Mars sextiles Pluto, the Sun sextiles Saturn, and Mercury squares Neptune. This creative combination inspires imagination that can effectively be put into action. Although it’s not the best time to sign on the dotted line, we can make significant headway on in-progress projects. This can be a dreamy time on a romantic level as well. For you, this is a time when a little help from a friend goes a long way. Casual connections with others are especially rewarding, and networking pays off. It’s an excellent period for most communication matters, although some fogginess with a close partner could figure as well. Romantic and creative matters are especially favored.

October 17-18 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

October 17-20 Venus sextiles Saturn and Pluto, and the Sun sextiles Pluto. Yet another creative combination occurs now, and opportunities abound. This is a time when love matters and social relationships can be solidified; and when solid progress with finances can occur. It’s also a time when research brings rewards. We benefit now from strategy and keeping things to ourselves for the time being. Opportunities to find or renew something we had lost, and to gain some power are available now. It’s about watching and waiting–observing and collecting information before we make our move. For you, opportunities to advance your personal interests come through group associations and friends. Work matters stabilize, and you don’t mind putting in extra effort, mainly because progress is tangible and satisfying.

October 22 New Moon in late Libra in your solar eleventh house affects you until the next New Moon. This New Moon is very creative and relationship-oriented. In your house of groups and friendships, a new creative beginning with regards to your relationships with friends and to groups is in store now and in the month ahead. The eleventh house is a sector associated with networking, making contact, group activities, and income earned from business. With the New Moon here, focus is on making contacts and reaching out to others in both a social and professional sense. It’s a time to turn inner restlessness into fruitful contact with others. Heightened awareness of your position in life within the context of the group, rather than through self-centered focus, is probable with this position of the New Moon, as well as a need for social security. Goals that involve networking, making connections with others, joining or strengthening ties in a group project/activity, and nurturing good will are the focus this month.

October 22-26 The Sun conjuncts Venus and Mars; Mercury conjuncts Jupiter and squares Saturn. This is a vital, dynamic time when we thrive on progress and activity, as well as lively, creative, and sexual energy. Our creativity and desire to make something beautiful is stimulated now. Social relations are impassioned, and perhaps demanding or extreme. We may also feel compelled to do something creative or artistic. In some cases this impulsive energy generates “love at first sight” scenarios or erotic interludes. Team work is more successful now. Some level of competition is present in our interactions, but it’s likely of a pleasurable and gently challenging kind. In terms of mental pursuits, we may have to make a choice in which both alternatives are desirable, but we must choose one at the expense of the other. For you, this is an active period for friendships, group associations, and romance. There may be some challenges encountered in this period, however, with regards to communications. The Jupiter-Saturn square, discussed above in the Overview, is highlighted now. With your ruler in conjunction to Mercury and square Saturn, you may be called upon to make an important decision.

October 25-26 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

October 27-28 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

October 27-29 Mercury is stationary retrograde now, and will remain retrograde until November 17th–a cycle when rethinking matters is the name of the game. When Mercury is stationary, as it is now, it’s especially important to prepare for possible breakdowns in communication. Back up your computer, double-check your paperwork, and remember that you may not have all the necessary information to make big decisions for the time being. Avoid signing contracts or deals, as they may not work out as you expected, or they might need revision later. As well, both the Sun and Venus square Chiron, making it a less than ideal time to ask for favors and to make important purchases. For you, being doubted or challenged in a friendship may be part of the picture. This is a red flag period for all–it’s best to avoid major changes now.

Sagittarius (Born November 23 to December 2) AND Sagittarius Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Sagittarius:

September 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

September

Overview. Until the 23rd, the Sun illuminates your career and reputation sector. More than any other time of the year, your focus is drawn to your “place” or standing in the outer world, and your reputation. This is the time when you are more interested in, and focused on, accomplishing something important. Your competency is something that you are especially sensitive to during this cycle. You want to shine. Your vision is practical right now, and you want to see tangible results for your efforts. More contact with authority figures is likely during this period. Recognition is likely to come your way whether you ask for it or not, and the responsibility that comes right along with it! Do what you feel is right, keeping in mind that you are at your most visible during this period in the year.

From the 23rd, the Sun puts a spotlight on your eleventh house. This is is a more sociable time of the year for you. This is a rather happy, goal-oriented cycle. A lively agenda is promised, you’re attracting quite a bit of interest, and your energy for making contact with others is considerable. A stronger sense of community is with you during this cycle. Making friendly contact with others, in general, is probable. Relationships take on a fun, if impersonal, tone now. Activities with children increase. You are more stimulated by all that is unconventional during this cycle, and your ideas are original and progressive now.

A magnificent partnership opportunity comes your way in the first week of the month, when all personal matters also seem to be working in your favor. A family member demands special attention around the 7th. Youre especially charming and well-received on the 18th. New directions in your career are in store for you, although they have been in the works for the last six months. Although you have been in the dark, you will know exactly where youre headed by the end of the month.

Pluto in your sign turns direct this month after an approximately 6-month retrograde period. Slowly but surely, you feel renewed, more confident, and more effective.

Two eclipses occur this month. One is a Lunar Eclipse on the 7th in the middle degree of Pisces. Its conjunction to Uranus brings a surprising turn of events. The other is a Solar Eclipse on the 22nd in the last degree of Virgo. The effects of eclipses stay with us for as long as six months, and they reveal main areas of focus for this half-year period. A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. Therefore, major decision-making is best avoided in the first week of September as well as from the 15th to 22nd.

The Lunar Eclipse on the 7th stimulates your solar fourth house. Surprises surrounding your home, family, and domestic life are in store. Something that has been in hiding or brewing under the surface of things comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. Your sector of house and home, property, family, parents, and foundations is involved. This could manifest, for example, as the culmination of a project on the home, an event involving a family member or parent that grabs your complete attention, a flurry of activity in your home that demands attention, and other such possibilities.

The Solar Eclipse on the 22nd marks a new beginning for you. Flaws in an important system in your life are revealed and it’s time to start fresh. This eclipse occurs in your solar tenth house, suggesting that a new approach to your career or a new career direction altogether is in store for you. New business plans and goals may be formed in the coming month, and a sense of renewal and reinvigoration with regards to your career goals is a strong potential. This is a phase when you will be especially busy with career and/or public responsibilities.

Your ruler, Jupiter, forms some very pleasing aspects to Mercury, the Sun, and Venus this month. On the 3rd, good news comes your way, or an important conversation or communication occurs that can open up doors for you, particularly concerning career goals. On the 6-7, you may be recognized and acknowledged in pleasing ways. The 18-19 presents an opportunity to employ your considerable charm and attractiveness. This could indicate a love opportunity, or a new friendship.

Jupiter, your ruler, squares Neptune from the 20-29, affecting your third and twelfth houses. We may be misled easily under this influence–by others, or by our own unrealistic expectations. An inability to focus on important and realistic details, some disorganization, and extravagance or exaggeration, is likely now. You may be challenged to defend your ideals. Giving too much of your time and/or resources to others may be an issue now, and could leave you feeling discouraged if others are not appreciating your efforts. This may play out with siblings, at school, with neighbors, or in your personal communications. Be careful that you are not deceived. As well, avoid financial speculation during this period.

Less favorable days for financial initiatives include the 13-16, 15th, and 20-29. Impulsive purchases are seductive on the 13-16, and misinformation about financial prospects is likely from the 20-29. The only true green light for finances occurs on the 25th. However, since this occurs while your ruler squares Neptune, it’s best not used as a period for new financial initiatives. It’s better to stick to minor purchases.

With regards to romance, the 14-16 is the most active and favorable period of September. A love opportunity could pop up in your circle of friends or group affiliations, but it may be problematic. Be a little more cautious with your heart on the 5-8 and 25-27. These are less than ideal dates for scheduling first dates.

A strong period for attracting or enhancing serious partnerships occurs on the 3rd, when a surprise could be in store for or with a partner. Another favorable time for attracting a serious relationship occurs on the 27-28, although it would be wise to wait a little before making important decisions about relationships until after the 29th. Open up the lines of communication with a partner on the 23rd.

Be cautious at work (and with your health) on the 9-10, 15-16, and 25th. Avoid scheduling office parties, job interviews, or health appointments during these periods if you can. Save them, if possible, for the 1st and the 18-19. Excellent periods for recognition for your professional efforts occur on the 1st and 27-28. Your career is bound to be especially busy, public, and lively this month.

Venus journeys through your career and reputation sector from the 6th. Venus is charming, friendly, and affectionate, and her presence in your career and reputation sector brings social opportunities and charm to your career. You are coming across well at work now, and romantic opportunities, or simply more chances to socialize and network, are likely.

Chatty Mercury is in your solar tenth house as well until the 12th. Your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to professional and worldly ambitions where knowledge and education are pursued in order to enhance career prospects or social standing during this period. You might even be able to talk your way into a managerial post. Executive ability is with you now. You are bound to think and talk a lot about financial security and professional matters. Your thinking is more logical and precise than usual, with the ability to come straight to the point of any matter under discussion. Mental work or a good deal of short distance travels may be connected with your vocation right now.

Mercury moves through your eleventh house from the 12th, suggesting that your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to the pursuit of truth, mainly through the mental companionship of friends. Intuitive insights and original reasoning ability produce the occasional touch of genius – you often comprehend issues that others find quite incomprehensible during this cycle! Your objective and original thinking can be used for the scientific investigation of advanced metaphysical concepts and humanitarian ideals – or other profound issues that could lead humanity towards a better future. You could also do a lot of thinking and musing about your own happiness and long-term goals.

Mars is in your solar tenth house until the 8th, continuing to add energy and verve to your career and public life. You “chafe at the bit” when bosses try to restrict your freedom of movement, speech, or actions. For this reason, your career interests may be shifting, seeking new and challenging career opportunities that offer more flexibility in self-expression and personal decisions.

Mars enters your eleventh house on the 8th and will stay there until the last week of October. With the Sun in the same sector from the 23rd as well, socializing and networking are emphasized. Group activities and cooperative efforts are the best way to achieve your goals right now. In fact, you have all sorts of ideas about what you want to do. Avoid allowing the ego to attempt to dominate others. You prefer to lead a group rather than follow during this period, and there are certainly ways to do so without stepping on others’ toes. As well, the best way to achieve your goals during this period is to work as a team, or to at least to do some networking. You may have more energy than usual to want to organize projects. Your humanitarian impulse may be stimulated. The role you play for other people in your life becomes the focus. You may feel that your schedule gets overloaded at this time with things to do (usually for others).

The most rewarding periods of the month overall are likely to be from the 8th forward, when energy is easy to find from within and without. You are able to get your ideas across effortlessly, particularly from the 12-18.

Highlights:

August 31-September 1 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

August 31-September 1 Venus trines Pluto and the Sun conjuncts Mercury. A conversation or communication today could open the doors to a new adventure. A job opportunity may be part of the picture. You are coming across with playful charm today, and you may be called upon for advice.

September 2-3 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

September 3-7 The Sun and Mercury activate the Jupiter-Uranus trine. Both oppose Uranus and sextile Jupiter. Opportunities are present, but not without a struggle. Face-offs can occur now, as well as brazen assertions of independence. Sudden events and surprising news are in store. This can be a time of great insight or revelations–a time when you see the light and are jolted out of your usual (or automatic) mode of thinking and living. New perceptions come intuitively now.

September 7 Full Moon in Pisces in your solar fourth house. This is a potent Full Moon–a Lunar Eclipse–that can affect us for months after it occurs. The last two weeks have found you working hard towards your career goals and other public matters. The demands of your personal life are now paramount. Striking a balance between energy spent on work and energy spent on domestic matters is essential now. Balanced attention to your public and personal lives is what you need to focus on. It’s time to prioritize. Otherwise, you run the risk of over-extending yourself. A home, family, or property matter could grab your complete attention at this time.

September 9-10 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

September 9-12 Mercury squares Pluto, and the Sun and Mars form tense aspects with Neptune. Watch for sarcastic speech and suspiciousness, especially at work and with a close partner; as well as confusion or self-deception. Vagueness with a love affair or your children could bother you now. Something from your past may come up now. It’s challenging to see clearly at this time, so do your best to avoid signing on the dotted line.

September 13-14 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

September 15-17 Mercury-Mars conjunction is semi-square Saturn, the Sun squares Pluto, and Venus opposes Uranus. This is very potent, and potentially disruptive, energy! Although energy is brought to our communications, especially regarding personal relationships, we must be conscious of the tendency to be overly critical, sarcastic, or forceful with what we say and how we say it. We are likely to come to a very clear, definite decision at this time and to let others know exactly what we want, and we have no qualms about stirring up controversy in defense of our ideas or plans! Our comments may be particularly loaded, and discussions could easily escalate into arguments. Sudden or impulsive attractions to people and to material items that later prove to be unappealing occur now. This is not a good time to start a new relationship nor for any significant financial undertaking. We may not see eye to eye with our loved ones, and we might be taken off guard by unexpected events. It’s wise to hold off on decision-making with regards to finances and relationships. However, if we can separate rebellion from a sincere need for change, we might open ourselves up to new ways of dealing with others. We might find ourselves particularly impatient with rules. You may experience a powerful and possibly frustrating conversation or communication with or about a friend–watch for harsh words. Power plays may be part of the picture, and could involve career, reputation, and business matters. Challenging or surprising events regarding family and domestic issues are possible during this period.

September 18-19 Venus sextiles Jupiter. We are big-hearted and our feelings are expansive under this influence. This is a sociable, perhaps lazy and self-indulgent, time. We easily find meaning in our social connections. We are more open and trusting of friends and lovers. Integrity and loyalty are favored. This is a favorable influence for winning people’s trust, healthy speculation, advertising, publishing, finances, and travel. For you, this is an opportunity period for matters of the heart and attraction. It’s a strong period for career, business, and personal reputation matters, friendships and group associations, and work and health. This is also a good time for asserting your personal influence. Past good deeds are rewarded now.

September 20-21 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

September 22 New Moon (Solar Eclipse) in late Virgo in your solar tenth house affects you until the next New Moon. This New Moon is especially potent because it is a Solar Eclipse. Its energy is with you for the next six months. Heightened sensitivity to your standing in society and your goals for constructive progress are highlighted this month. It’s a good time to develop new business plans and goals, assuming the New Moon is not very afflicted, and a sense of renewal and reinvigoration with regards to your career goals is a potential. It is a time to focus on the elements of your personality that you are projecting to society and as a professional. Goals for self-mastery and self-discipline should be made at this time. This is a phase when you will be busy with career and/or public responsibilities.

September 23 Mercury trine Neptune. Imagination and intuition run high, and are involved in decisions made today. We are in the right place at the right time. We are inspired and able to inspire others with our words. This influence favors photography, the arts, poetry, fiction, spirituality, advertising, and promotion. For you, this is a strong period for career, partnership, and friendship matters. It’s an excellent time to open up the lines of communication with a friend, partner, or co-worker.

September 24-26 Venus squares Pluto, Jupiter squares Neptune (discussed in the Overview, above) and Mercury sextiles Saturn. Intense emotions and clashes over personal values are in store now. However, it’s a good time to get organized and to do some solid work that will have benefits down the road. During this period, you could be feeling undervalued. A clash with a co-worker or boss could be part of the picture. However, this is a strong period for strengthening a close partnership.

September 27-28 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

September 27-29 Mercury sextiles Pluto and sesquiquadrates Uranus; the Sun semi-squares Saturn and trines Chiron. Conflicts and blockages encountered now can lead to improved circumstances, healing, and a renewed sense of purpose. A truth may come to light now, or something from the past retrieved or found. Conversations are deeper and more sincere. Constructive strategies formulated now have long-term benefits. However, listen to your intuition in addition to your sense of reason.

Sagittarius (Born November 23 to December 2) AND Sagittarius Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Sagittarius:

August 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

August

Overview. Until the 23rd, the Sun illuminates your adventure sector. Your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith. This is a cycle in which you seek a higher meaning to your life, and/or seek out new experiences that take you beyond the here and now, and beyond the mundane details of day-to-day life. Anything that broadens your experiences attracts now. A lack of superficiality finds you straight to the point, interested in the truth of things. It would be wise for you to consider scheduling a vacation, adventure of sorts, or a course that expands your mind. These don’t have to happen now, but taking the time to recognize your needs for escaping the daily grind, taking a few risks, and feeding your spirit for self-expression through some form of adventure or higher learning will help you to feel good about yourself. The only caution with this cycle is that you could lose touch with everyday affairs and important details.

The Sun spotlights your career and public sector from the 23rd. Focus is on what you do, how you do it, and what you accomplish. Do whatever you can to adopt a serious approach to business because you are in the spotlight. A time when practical vision may be at a high, during which you can see what needs to be done and just how to go about doing it. Career and vocational issues may benefit from the increased clarity you possess. Much of your energy will be applied to vocational achievement, professional success, and leadership during this cycle. The desire for some form of recognition and financial success is stronger than any other time of the year.

Mercury picks up speed after a period of retrogradation in July. Problems with money or any shared/joint resources, intimacy and sexuality, career decisions, and partnerships matters are resolved for the most part early this month, particularly after the 4th. You can become more confident about decision-making with regards to joint finances, loans, career matters, and partnership issues.

This month finds you especially adventurous and energetic. For the most part, things run smoothly, although you may have some convincing or explaining to do around the 9th. Creativity and energy runs high in your career. Youre called upon to take charge, and you do so with gusto. You want to leave your unique stamp on whatever you do now. August is a strong month for you on a financial level. Opportunities to increase your income could come from travel or overseas, and good news arrives in the last week of August.

The 1-4 is a potentially awkward period for you, when you may feel you are treated with suspicion or a lack of respect. Feeling undervalued or downright unloved, particularly with regards to friendships, group associations, and work, could undermine your confidence on the 22nd. Tension with a partner, or on the job, can occur on the 18th, when you have a hard time seeing eye-to-eye.

Now, for the good stuff: your ruler, Jupiter, forms two very pleasant aspects this month. On the 7-9 is an opportunity period for you in terms of love, personal magnetism, and sex appeal. Displaying initiative and a sense of adventure will bring rewards. As well, the last week of the month is exceptionally favorable for you. Pleasant surprises, good news, and open-hearted discussions are part of the picture. The 11-16 presents an opportunity to show others how you shine, and recognition is forthcoming.

Plenty of activity with regards to your personal finances is in store for August. Your financial planet, Saturn, aligns with the Sun, Mercury, and Venus this month, signaling new beginnings, plans, and strategies. The need to adjust your spending habits becomes apparent in the first week of the month, after which you have the opportunity to (happily!) buckle down. A promotion or bonus, a boost in income of a partner, or a payoff from a long-term project may be part of the picture. Whatever it is, this is a month when you feel like you’re in control of your finances, and that you know where you’re headed. It’s time to face a few realities, but this needn’t be disillusioning. Instead, it should fill you with confidence as you move forward with a new financial plan or budget.

Some challenges in your love life are likely this month, particularly on the 12-14, when face-offs, disagreements, or unusual events/changes of plans can occur. Not surprisingly, it’s a time when you should expect the unexpected and avoid scheduling a romantic getaway! Try to avoid being impulsive or impatient. The 28-30 is another tense period for love affairs (as well as relationships with children and creative projects). Something from your past (or their past) may come up to throw you off-center. Avoid power games. Love can also be tricky from the 1-6, when disagreements get in the way of fun. To recap, the worst days to schedule a first date are the 1-6, 12-14, and the 28-30. The 19-21 is also a time when you simply won’t be seeing things clearly. However, the 7-9 brings huge opportunities for you in the romance department. It also is a time when you can show off your creative talents on the job.

Some adjustments and nagging issues on the job and with your work are likely this month. Days when you should not schedule job interviews or health appointments, if you can help it are the 2-3, 7-11, 17, 19-20, 22-23, and 27. If you can save either of these for August 31-September 1, all the better. This last period of the month is a great time for expressing savvy on the job. The 26-27 could be a little tricky when it comes to work or health issues, but ultimately liberating. The need to face realities and to shoulder responsibilities in these departments in your life becomes apparent. Perhaps you realize that your job is less than ideal, for example, but the realization that you need to do it right comes at the same time.

This month, Saturn opposes Neptune across your third and ninth house axis. This tricky opposition is activated by the Full Moon on the 9th, by Mercury on the 20-21, and by Venus on the 26-27. You experience a clash between reality and your ideals and dreams, particularly with regards to your studies, communications, travel or adventure-seeking, daily activities, education, and learning. You may become very demanding and critical of others, particularly siblings, other family members, classmates, or neighbors–or they are demanding of you. Painful memories may surface that need to be dealt with, and fears and insecurities may not be based on realistic expectations. Since you set your goals for success far out of reach these days, you are likely to “fail” (at least in your eyes) during this time. It is difficult for you to separate fact from fiction, and you may feel that you are going through a “reality shift.” Fears and anxieties may be overwhelming at times, but remember that things are certainly not as bad as they seem. There can be a feeling of being drained by the demands (or even the lack of demands) of others, or frustrated because someone wants something concrete and secure, and you are not clear in terms of what you want. This feeling of being drained is experienced by all, but for you, education, legal matters, and communications are the likely arenas where this influence will play out. There may be confusing matters or delays with regards to education and communications, and your attention may drift when it comes to dealing with facts and logic. There may be a feeling of being alone in the world, compounded by the idea that practical matters in your life seem elusive or confusing. This can also be an important month as well for your finances and your domestic affairs, also coming under the rule of Saturn and Neptune. Burdens, responsibilities, separations, or the need to mature quickly are things you are dealing with now in these life departments. The best way to handle this is to develop a workable plan for tending to your needs for higher education or self-expansion. Maturation is in order, and if you can think in terms of “building” slowly but surely, you will feel more grounded and realistic.

Jupiter trines Uranus in the last week of August. This transit is known for being lucky, and always brings something unexpected. Since Jupiter is your ruler, you may be integral in spreading the sunshine, surprising others, and enjoying the attention others are giving you for your unique personality. You feel like doing something out-of-the-ordinary at this time and want to explore new perspectives on life. A love affair could take you by surprise. You could have new opportunities presented to you, seemingly from out of nowhere, such as a real estate deal coming through, a business or job opportunity, a sudden windfall, money from the blue, a job promotion, or a chance meeting with someone who opens your mind or contributes to your success. Whatever it is, it will require immediate action on your part and it will probably be a wild departure from your norm. You may come up with innovative ideas that can be put into practice at a later time, particularly regarding ways you can express yourself and taking up new initiatives. You may also adopt a whole new “look” at this time. At the very least, your personality is sparkling and seems fresh and new.

Venus journeys through your intimacy sector until the 12th. During this cycle, the areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through harmonious sexual relationships, friendships, and business interests. You attract others like bees to honey now, and you favor a partner who is intelligent, with a somewhat mysterious flair about them. A financial boost is likely, or you may gain financially through your partner. Your social circle may include people who are interested in mysteries or those who are engaged in some form of psychological work. A deep personal connection and intimate exchange can be healing, replenishing, and soothing to your soul. This is a good time to work on resolving grievances, differences in values, or money problems in a close relationship. There are also apt to be favorable developments regarding shared assets, jointly owned property, borrowing money, or repaying loans to the satisfaction of all concerned. You are likely to get both the financial backing and the emotional support you need to succeed. On a more personal level, intimate relationships are intensified. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.

Venus warms your adventure sector from the 12th. The areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through a love of philosophy, study, intellectual interests, traveling abroad for pleasure, religion, and art. A wise, relaxed and pleasantly philosophical attitude towards life is with you during this cycle. You are more self-expressive and adventurous with regards to expressing your affections. A love interest who attracts you during this cycle may be somebody who you previously wouldn’t consider attractive, or someone whose cultural background is very different than yours. Your perceptions of beauty, in general, are broadened and widened now, and this can extend to things that attract you, including objects and ideas. You have a taste for the exotic and the spirit to match.

Chatty Mercury is in your intimacy sector until the 11th, along with Venus. Your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to the growth and development of the mind. Much of your knowledge may be gained through intuitive means rather than the study of books at this time. There is an aptitude for business and other financial dealings. Your mental disposition is ideally suited to work of an investigative nature, research, psychotherapy, psychiatry, police
or detective work. Focus the light of understanding and honest communication on emotionally-charged topics such as sexuality and intimacy, feelings about the power dynamics in your partnerships, and money you share with significant others. You can have a more objective and fair view of such things now, and could clarify any long-standing issues related to any of this. On a practical level, it is the time to handle joint finances, material assets or property you hold in common with another, and matters pertaining to inheritances, taxes, or commercial interests.

Mercury is in your solar ninth house from the 11-27. You’re thinking about the “big picture” rather than the mundane circumstances and details of your life during this cycle. Your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to the expansion of the intellect through foreign travel, philosophy, higher education and other profound studies.

From the 27th, Mercury is in your solar tenth house, suggesting that your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to professional worldly ambitions where knowledge and education are pursued in order to enhance career prospects or social standing. Your mental qualities are well suited to managerial posts and any work requiring communication skill and executive ability during this cycle.
Financial security, professional prestige, and social status are the dominant mental issues for the time being. Career planning strategies or thinking of concrete ways to turn your dreams into realities as well as sharing your thoughts on these matters with a few significant others should be very fruitful now. It is a good time to communicate with someone in a position to help you achieve your aspirations.

Mars is energizing your career sector all month. During this period, you are likely to exert your energy and initiative by actively pursuing your career and more worldly ambitions. Courage, ambition, energy, enterprise, force, emotional involvement, business acumen, and a strong compulsive drive for success may lead to special achievements or professional recognition during this cycle. You like to see practical results for your efforts and take pride in doing a job correctly. You may become a force to be reckoned with in career and professional life. However, if you let your argumentative, impatient, or aggressive side come out to play, you may create difficulties on occasion. Patience, tolerance, and a less-hasty attitude to events should be cultivated. This transit stimulates your ambition and/or your desire to be recognized for your accomplishments. Whether it’s professional or personal, you are likely to have an increased desire for others to notice you. This can be a good time to become self-employed or start a business if other factors (and Mars itself) are favorable. Conflicts with those in authority are possible now. You may pour more energy into self-promotion or business/career activities.

The most rewarding periods of the month overall are likely to be from the 11-21, when both Mercury and Venus form lovely trines to your Sun, and you are coming across swimmingly. A more challenging period occurs from the 1-7, when you can’t seem to get in synch with the rhythm of life around you.

Highlights:

July 25 New Moon in Leo in your solar ninth house affects you until the next New Moon. The ninth house rules our spirit to grow, explore, and expand beyond the “regular” experiences in our lives. The New Moon here may bring some restlessness and dissatisfaction with regular routines. Make an effort to initiate new projects or activities that expand your mind, feed your spirit for adventure, and stretch your imagination. You may feel renewed by a new perspective on your life, something philosophical or spiritual that you read or learn, or an adventure that takes you away from the mundane routines in your life. This is an especially pleasant cycle for you.

July 26-27 Venus trines Jupiter (your ruler). Under this influence, good humor, good will, strong morals, and a healthy sense of responsibility all contribute to a happy time. We are able to achieve growth through good feelings now. This is an excellent time for you to attract what (and who!) you want.

July 27-28 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

July 27-29 Mercury is stationary direct. When Mercury is stationary, as it is now, it’s especially important to prepare for possible breakdowns in communication. Back up your computer, double-check your paperwork, and remember that you may not have all the necessary information to make big decisions for the time being. Avoid signing contracts or deals, as they may not work out as you expected, or might need revision later. As Mercury regains speed in the next week, improvements will be seen, but you may want to hold off on new deals until after August 4th.

July 30-31 Venus trines Uranus. Romantic surprises. Under this influence, we lose our fear of taking risks and we happily embrace all that is new, unusual, and out-of-the-ordinary with regards to romantic involvements as well as financial undertakings. We are ready to experiment, but not necessarily ready to commit. Creative inspiration can be had now. We have an offbeat, pleasant attitude and we are more willing to socialize. This is a good time for financial undertakings involving electronics, technology, the internet, metaphysics, and the arts, as well as for group activities.

August 1-2 Our egos may be a bit out of control with the Sun in tense aspect to Jupiter and Pluto. Expansion is possible if we can keep our egos in check! Feeling underappreciated or downright neglected can lead you to ego conflicts with others. Resist the temptation to overstate your feelings. You may be coming across as haughty or even pompous.

August 3-5 Awkward aspects involving Venus-Neptune, Mercury-Pluto, and Sun-Uranus suggest some adjustments are necessary. This is a time when we tend to second-guess, re-think, and temporarily lose our faith in people. This could be a challenging period for your partnerships, career, friendships, or work. You may find yourself at odds with a friend or partner. You could also temporarily question whether your partner values the same things as you do, or if you are getting satisfaction from your job.

August 4-5 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

August 6-7 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

August 6-9 The Sun aligns with Saturn in Leo, and Mars forms a harmonious aspect with Jupiter. We become aware of increased responsibilities in our careers, love affairs, or family life. Perhaps we recognize the dangers of stress and overwork. We have a chance to become more mature, goal-oriented, and responsible. This can be a good time to begin a cycle in which we build a business, especially a creative one, or re-commit to a long-term project. Decisive action comes naturally now. We possess willpower, verve, and energy that we can direct toward achieving our goals. We want to branch out and take on more challenges. Positive yet realistic attitudes create winning situations now. A spirit of friendly competition prevails, as well as the desire to take beneficial action. For you, circumstances are such that you become acutely aware of a maturation process with regards to how you express yourself through a spirit of adventure, and how you expand your mind through travel or education. You are required to come up with something solid now in terms of your personal philosophies, and are accountable for how you conduct yourself on moral or philosophic levels. Issues surrounding your ability to provide for yourself, your personal finances, and your sense of self-worth and security may be part of the picture. Some advances can be made in your love affairs now. The way you present yourself to others enjoys a healthy injection of adventure and passion.

August 9 Full Moon in Aquarius in your solar third house. This Full Moon highlights a Saturn-Neptune opposition, bringing into our awareness a clash between our ideals and reality. Challenges in your communications, education, and daily life may come to light, and you may be feeling drained by the demands of these areas of life. Striking a balance is in order, but getting to that medium ground may be a bit of a struggle. The last two weeks have found you somewhat restless and in need of more from life than the mundane. Now the mundane is catching up with you. Errands need to be run, people are talking your ear off, you need to do some paperwork and answer calls. You are pushed to find a balance now. Do what needs to be done so that you can free yourself up for more adventurous and fulfilling activities.

August 9-13 Uranus is in hard aspect to Mercury, Venus, and Mars, while the Sun opposes Neptune. Infatuations are more likely now–with people, things, and ideas. The desire for something new and exotic–something that breaks the routine–is strong during this period. Unusual attractions (to people and things) can have us acting on a whim. We may deal with freedom versus closeness issues in our relationships. We have a tendency to take risks, to feel restless, and to act on sudden impulses without considering consequences. We assert our wills and individuality powerfully, and we are willing to fight for freedom. There may be changes in work schedules, or life’s circumstances could challenge us in such a way that we need to change our goals or actions. Some disappointments or disillusionments are also possible now. A close partner, lover, or child may be hell-bent on protecting his or her freedom or displaying erratic behavior. Clashes between the demands of daily life and siblings and the demands of your education or adventure-seeking activities could surface. Avoid confrontations with lovers, authority figures, and family members.

August 12-13 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

August 16-17 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

August 16-17 The Sun trines Pluto, and we are able to get to the bottom of things. We are more decisive than usual, and our abilities to concentrate and focus help us achieve what we set out to do. This is a very positive aspect for starting a money-making endeavor or a new project. Research brings rewards. We benefit now from strategy and keeping things to ourselves for the time being. Opportunities to find or renew something we had lost, and to gain some power are available now. This energy urges you to express the “real you” with confidence, but also with discretion. You don’t need to put all of your cards on the table just now. You are coming across well in terms of how you are presenting your ideas and opinions. Your magnetism is high now, and you inspire confidence in others.

August 19-21 Mercury conjuncts Saturn, quincunxes Uranus, and opposes Neptune; Venus forms a tense aspect with Pluto. This is a time when you are inclined to sort out your thoughts and re-think your strategies. Do just that, and avoid speaking out prematurely. You are required to show your responsible side, even if you are feeling a bit disappointed, or even disillusioned, with your life just now. This is a time when you need to re-formulate life strategies. It’s probably wise not to believe everything you hear now, as some important information may be omitted. Partnerships require some extra attention. You may have the opportunity to cement a commitment, although some disillusionments may be part of the picture.

August 22-23 Venus squares Jupiter. Use caution with your finances and your heart. If something seems too good to be true, it may very well be at this time! Feelings of elation in love or with regards to the pleasures of life can lead us to overdo, overindulge, overspend, and overstate our feelings. We might take great strides to get noticed. Avoid hasty (or haughty!) decisions, and steer clear of impulsive buying. Co-workers and friends may be promising more than they can deliver–take what they say with a grain of salt. Feeling underappreciated in general could grab hold of you now, but it’s temporary.

August 23 New Moon in Virgo in your solar tenth house affects you until the next New Moon. Heightened sensitivity to your standing in society and your goals for constructive progress are highlighted this month. It’s a good time to develop new business plans and goals, assuming the New Moon is not very afflicted, and a sense of renewal and reinvigoration with regards to your career goals is a potential. It is a time to focus on the elements of your personality that you are projecting to society and as a professional. Goals for self-mastery and self-discipline should be made at this time. This is a phase when you will be busy with career and/or public responsibilities.

August 23-24 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

August 24 Mercury trines Pluto, and we stand to gain enormous insight into problems, projects, and people! Conversations today could help you solve nagging problems in your life and allow you to move forward. This is a strong day for you for negotiations of all kinds. Recognition for your competency may be forthcoming now.

August 26-27 Venus conjuncts Saturn and opposes Neptune. Relationships are tricky and perhaps disappointing for the time being. We might want a commitment while a significant other remains evasive and hard to pin down–or vice versa. Your working relationships and friendships are involved in the equation. You’re called upon to get serious with regards to a travel or higher education matter, and it’s best to show your responsible side. Ambiguities with regards to your personal affairs may have you feeling anxious, but there’s no better time than now to formulate realistic plans for improving your commitments.

August 28-30 Mars squares Pluto and Jupiter trines Uranus. This is a time of fun surprises and interesting opportunities. Something comes along that breaks your routine. You may have new opportunities presented to you, seemingly from out of nowhere, such as a romantic opportunity, financial boost, or a chance meeting with someone who contributes to your success. Whatever it is, it will require immediate action on your part and it will probably be a wild departure from your norm. You are bound to come up with innovative ideas that can be put into practice at a later time. However, a power struggle on the job could have you squirming. An issue from the past may be called to your attention, and it doesn’t feel good. You want to move on! Do your best to let things flow naturally or you’ll only serve to stress yourself out.

Sagittarius (Born November 23 to December 2) AND Sagittarius Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Sagittarius:

July 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

July

Overview. Until the 22nd, the Sun highlights your solar eighth house, when all that is deeply personal comes into focus. Intimate matters become especially important to you during this cycle. Just how well you are handling your life from the inside out comes up for inspection. Your self-mastery skills and psychological predisposition matter to you more than usual. This is the time of year when you are most desirous of change on a deep level. Clearing out psychic “junk” or ridding yourself of bad habits may be part of the picture now. You are more willing than usual to explore life’s secrets. This cycle brings greater in-depth understanding and an inclination to delve beneath the surface of matters to get to the bottom of them. Research uncovers new material that allows you to develop a better overall picture of the year’s events. This is an especially introspective cycle during which you have the chance to truly uncover your personal strengths and talents. On a more mundane level, you may be dealing with joint finances and shared resources now.

From the 22nd, the Sun illuminates your solar ninth house–a sector of your chart that you are most familiar with, as it is associated with Sagittarius. Your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith. This is a cycle in which you seek a higher meaning to your life, and/or seek out new experiences that take you beyond the here and now, and beyond the mundane details of day-to-day life. Anything that can broaden your experiences attracts now.

The Mercury retrograde cycle from the 4-28 affects your ninth house and mostly your eighth house of intimacy, shared resources, and personal transformation. Avoid new decision-making regarding your money or any shared/joint resources, avoid filing taxes, and side-step arguments with loved ones that revolve around intimacy and sexuality. An argument over joint finances can also get you into hot water. Hold back. Because Virgo and Gemini are on the angles of your chart, you may be especially sensitive to communication mishaps associated with Mercury retrograde.

Jupiter goes direct on the 6th. This is great news for you because Jupiter, the great Benefic, is your ruler. This suggests that matters pertaining to intuition, spirituality, and personal confidence are beginning to show signs of moving forward after a period of stagnation. The first signs of resolution for these issues will be with you this month. You are likely to project more confidence through a more intuitive, faithful, outgoing, and spontaneous demeanor.

Not much activity with your personal finances sector suggests that money is not the most important topic this month. However, shared resources are a big focus this month, and good news about your own finances could arrive around the time of the Full Moon on the 11th. You could experience a few challenges from the 1-6, when you may be held accountable for a purchase, or you could feel blocked on a financial level. A clash of values regarding money may occur on the 14th, and impulsive spending habits are something you might regret in the last few days of the month.

Love affairs and partnerships, such as marriage, could see some real conflicts from the 4-6. Misunderstandings are likely now. However, an excellent period for attracting or augmenting love affairs occurs on the 13-16. Your lover is feeling especially adventurous this month, and you are sure to enjoy this side of him or her. Close personal relationships, including marriage or other committed partnerships, may require some serious smoothing over this month. Misunderstandings are possible, and a partner could be returning to a previous position or stance for the time being. Fortunately, Venus in your 7th and 8th helps you to smooth a partner’s ruffled feathers quite effectively.

Work and health matters should run well overall in July. Avoid scheduling either medical appointments or job interviews on the 5-7, 13-14, 21-22, and 24th. If you can, save them for the 1-2, 9-10, and 26-30.

Venus moves through your partnership sector until the 18th. Special attention to and from a partner is in focus, and flattery will get you everywhere if you use it wisely. Set aside some private time when no one else can get in the way of the feelings you want to share. Give to a partner exactly what you would like to receive just now. It’s not about you right now–it’s about someone else close, and the sweeter your attentions, the more delicious your rewards will be! Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle.

Venus makes her way through the deep, dark, and intimate solar eighth house from the 18th. You are rather introspective when it comes to your affections and the love you share. A deep personal connection and intimate exchange can be healing, replenishing, and soothing to your soul. This is a good time to work on resolving grievances, differences in values, or money problems in a close relationship. There are bound to be favorable developments regarding shared assets, jointly owned property, borrowing money, or repaying loans to the satisfaction of all concerned during this cycle. Financial or business affairs are favored at this time and you may meet a benefactor through friends or in a social atmosphere. You are likely to get both the financial backing and the emotional support you need to succeed. On a personal level, intimate relationships are intensified. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.

Mars enlivens your adventure and higher mind sector until the 22nd. You have the courage and determination to act on your convictions. Do take care not to bulldoze over others’ opinions, especially with Mercury retrograde in the same sector. It’s a fabulous time for promoting your ideas and beliefs, although coming on too strong could work against you. If you can’t travel, you’ll feel like doing so, or at least travel in your mind, simply because you have a great urge to expand your horizons in some manner. Energies thrown toward recreation, travel, or just cooking up great new ideas are well spent and serve to refresh and renew your vitality. Creative projects can flourish with enlarged focus and redoubled efforts that somehow don’t tire you out. Time flies when you’re having fun and leaves you with more vigor than when you began. Big, ambitious, adventurous ideas can come to you in a rush during this cycle, propelled by the urge to do something you’ve never done before.

Mars, the planet of action, enters your career and reputation sector on the 22nd. Active leadership, strong action to achieve important goals, and an intensified drive to rise to prominence (in whatever way you personally define prominence or success) are the themes now. You are willing to work, to earn your way, and to take risks in order to move toward what you want. However, competitive and egotistical urges are intensified now too, and unless you moderate your actions with an awareness of and respect for others’ goals and intentions you may provoke hot opposition. Conflict with superiors or authority can be especially problematic, as you are not inclined to be compliant or obedient just now! Rather, you want to take the lead.

The most rewarding period of the month is likely to be from the 22-31, when the Sun harmonizes with your own Sun, and life seems to run smoothly for the most part. The Sun in a fellow Fire sign helps keep energy levels high.

Highlights:

June 25 New Moon in Cancer in your solar eighth house affects you until the next New Moon. This is a time of empowerment. It is a good time to focus on issues of intimacy as well as developing self-mastery skills. You may experience increased awareness of otherswhat makes them tickas well as your own internal motivations during this period. It is a time when intimacy and deep levels of sharing are heightened. It is also a favorable time to start a financial plan, savings plan, take out a loan or consolidate, and do work in accounting.

June 30-July 1 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

June 30-July 2 Venus trines Chiron and sextiles Saturn, and the Sun trines Jupiter (your ruler). Romantic energy is strong, and good will reigns. This is a strong period for both relationships and finances. Healing energies are with us, and we tend to attract good things with our positive attitudes. This is an excellent few days for personal self-expression, stability and recognition at work, health, friendships, communications of all kinds, and business income.

July 3-5 Mercury is stationary retrograde now, and will remain retrograde until the 28th–a cycle when rethinking things is the name of the game. When Mercury is stationary,

as it is now, it’s especially important to prepare for possible breakdowns in communication. Back up your computer, double-check your paperwork, and remember that you may not have all the necessary information to make big decisions for the time being. Avoid signing contracts or deals, as they may not work out as you expected, or might need revision later.

July 4-5 With Mars opposite Neptune, the planet of illusion, we could find ourselves spinning our wheels. We want more from our actions than simple, everyday results–we’re seeking inspiration, bliss, release, anything that makes us feel like we’re not locked into the mundane world. Watch for passive-aggressive and manipulative behavior, simply because it can be a challenge to move forward and grab what we want if we take a direct, simple route. If something looks too good to be true now, it may very well be. You may feel somewhat disappointed with a lover, but things should resolve in your favor by remaining cheerful and harnessing the optimistic energy of Jupiter turning direct in the next couple of days.

July 6-7 Freedom of movement and of thought are especially important to us right now. Venus squares Uranus and semi-squares Mercury, and the Sun trines Uranus. It’s a time when we can safely “expect the unexpected”, particularly when it comes to personal relationships. Watch for impulsive spending or fickle behavior in love. Flexibility is the key to success now. For you, good news on the domestic front or concerning travel is possible. Your plans are suddenly moving forward, and it feels good.

July 7-8 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

July 9-10 Venus harmonizes with Neptune and Mercury and Uranus form a tense aspect. Romantic relationships have a touch of magic right now. We see the very best in people now, and this eases our interactions and takes the pressure off in personal relationships. This is a period of reading between the lines and thinking outside the box. Surprising but pleasant news is possible now.

July 11 Full Moon in Capricorn in your solar second house. This Full Moon trines Uranus, adding insight, the ability to free ourselves from parts of our past that have been limiting us, and a feeling of truly moving ahead to issues illuminated by the Full Moon. Intimacy, issues of power and control, or joint finances may have been a focus for the last two weeks. Now it’s time to recognize what makes you comfortable. This Full Moon is about balancing the give and take of intimacy–the giving and receiving of pleasure. Sharing issues come into focus, as do issues of power–what’s yours and what’s mine. Your comfort zones matter, and now is the time to take care of your own needs without eclipsing the needs of others. You may receive big news about your personal finances–some sort of culmination or revelation.

July 10-11 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

July 13-16 Intense energy is with us now with Venus opposite Pluto and sextile Mars, Mars trine Pluto, and Jupiter and Saturn involved. Romantic, creative, and sexual intensity is what these influences are all about. There can be a confrontation or drama in personal relationships that leads to greater closeness and understanding–even ecstasy. Interactions are complex and dynamic now, and our relationships have more verve than usual. We are more inclined to go after what we want. Some feelings of being blocked are also possible, which could propel us to try harder. Although you could be feeling undervalued right now, you are also in the position to either attract love or push a current love affair forward.

July 16-17 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

July 20-21 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

July 21-22 Hard aspects between Venus and Neptune and the Sun and Uranus make for an awkward, erratic, and perhaps disappointing couple of days. We could feel that our relationships are missing important elements, or we may face reality after engaging in self-deception. Surprises or changes in plans can throw us off center. We should feel re-energized by the 23rd, however, when both the Sun and Mars enter new signs.

July 27-29 Mercury is stationary direct. When Mercury is stationary,

Sagittarius (Born November 23 to December 2) AND Sagittarius Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Sagittarius:

June 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

June

Overview. Until the 21st, the Sun highlights your solar seventh house, and your one-to-one relationships are in focus. It’s a great time to balance your personal interests with what would be best for a significant other. The emphasis is on “us” rather than “me” now. You need the energies, companionship, and support of other people, and they also are drawing upon you a great deal. The need to compromise and share, and your desire to balance your life, are strong now. During this period, going solo is not instinctive. The best way to make use of this period is to acknowledge these needs rather than to push ahead on your own. The Sun illuminates your solar eighth house for the rest of the month (from the 21st), placing emphasis on intimate and personal matters. You may have a desire to intensify the level of intimacy and honesty in your personal relationships. This is also a time when you tend to rid yourself of extras so that you feel less weighed down. This could be as simple as doing a spring clean-up or it could involve ridding yourself of destructive habits. Intensifying your emotional connection to an intimate partner is the focus now. Also on the agenda are issues of shared values, shared properties or money, and the ways you blend with or withhold from one another on all levels. Practical matters that might grab your attention are insurance, debts, and investments.

A year-long trend involves your outlook on life, which tends to be more spiritualized. You find yourself in more need of meditation and “down time”, and your outlook is very much influenced by what is going on subconsciously. Your dreaming world is also especially active. Spiritual philosophies that go beyond traditional orthodox viewpoints can bring revealing insights into your life. Something about your personality reflects your desire to help other people and they can easily recognize this. This month, your first and twelfth house rulers form a semi-square, and you may experience some moments of self-doubt that seems to come from deep within. You are searching for a greater meaning to your life. Your ruler, Jupiter, also squares Saturn through most of the second half of the month. You become acutely aware of the tension between what you want to do versus what you actually have time for and can reasonably accomplish. You may be tempted to overextend yourself, but this transit teaches you that you are happier with less rather than more.

While Venus is moving through your solar sixth until the 24th, you should have plenty of opportunities to socialize on the job, or at least to create and enjoy a more harmonious working environment. An office romance or flirtation, or playing matchmaker at work, may be part of the picture. You’re most successful doing tasks that involve cooperation and team harmony. Venus enters Gemini and moves through your house of partnerships from the 24th and into July, placing much emphasis on partnering and creating harmony in your personal relationships–or attracting a new one! You want–even need–others during this period, and you could go out of your way to meet, share, and cooperate with them. This is an excellent time to begin a new romance or to shower your partner, lover, or friends with love and understanding. You may sacrifice your own agenda or desires to please and accommodate someone else. Making others happy makes you happy during this period.

Uranus’ retrograde this month suggests that a family member might be a little distant as he or she could be stuck on something from the past. You are also concerned about your own sincerity when it comes to your domestic relationships and the style in which you communicate. Formalities and small talk don’t satisfy right now. Finances could demand some attention around the 16-19, when an investment or speculation may pay off. Challenging days for finances occur on the 4-5, when over-spending has its consequences, the 13-15, when travel plans don’t seem to be within budget, and the 21-23, when you should avoid making important purchases. The 9th is an excellent day for finances, however, when increases can come through business income and investments or taxes. As well, June 30 to July 1 is an excellent period for increasing your income, and when you might be thinking about travel and recreation.

Work is especially service-oriented this month, and you may not get a whole lot of recognition but you could derive satisfaction from being helpful. Your attitude towards work this month could be going through some changes, or you may be doing some digging and researching in connection to your career. Tensions on the job could arise on the 4-7, when work seems restrictive and full of pressure, and the 14-15, when family affairs and the demands of work are in conflict. As well, the 14-15 could be challenging due to miscommunications. The 21-28 is an especially productive period for you. The 10-11 and June 30-July 1st bring rewards on the job.

Love affairs may be especially romantic and dramatic this month with Mars, the ruler of your romance and pleasure sector, entering Leo and your adventurous solar ninth. Creativity is also at a peak. A cross-cultural love affair may be part of the picture. As well, you could be especially interested in “getting away from it all”, and recreation like camping, hiking, and various other sports could feature. Getting serious about love is possible on the 16-19, when making a commitment is possible. With the ruler of your partnership sector in the solar 8th from the 3-28, there could be an intense sexual attraction this month, or a partner may be especially in need of more intimacy and personalized attention. A strong period for attracting love occurs on the 16-19. The 1-3 may also be quite active on a romantic level, although likely quite tumultuous. Tensions with romantic partners could arise on the 6-11 and 20-21.

Mars moves through your solar ninth house from the 3rd, bringing activity and passion to the expression of your opinions and belief system. This could mean you are more inclined to engage in vigorous philosophical debates, legal contests, or fiery rhetoric in defense of a cherished belief or cause. Essentially, you have a stronger than usual desire for freedom on all levels. It’s a good idea to do something active and physical, or make sure you have things to do that allow you to set your own pace. You don’t enjoy following the lead of others now. During this period, you are especially enthusiastic and more bold than usual. Some restlessness and hunger for adventure is experienced now. Essentially, you are looking to expand your activities, and you may find that you have a lot of energy for higher studies, travel, or simply new subjects.

Mercury enters your solar eighth house on the 3rd, and you are inclined to do some serious “digging”, analyzing, and researching. You are looking for honest, intimate answers to emotionally-charged questions. It’s a good time to discuss power dynamics in your partnerships, as well as shared resources and finances, simply because you are more able to be objective about these matters. Mercury enters your solar ninth from the 28th, and you may be communicating with someone far away, exchanging interesting and enlightening information with others, or thinking about traveling. Essentially, your thoughts are lifted above the usual daily concerns and immediate business into thoughts and visions about future, larger goals, and the purpose and meaning of your activities. You are putting everything into a larger context–looking at the “big picture”.

The best time of the month for coming across pleasingly and for getting your ideas across well is the 24-30. You are bound to experience an overall feeling of being energetically supported by circumstances and by others when Mars trines your Sun from the 3-20.

Highlights:

May 27 New Moon in Gemini in your solar seventh house affects you for approximately 4 weeks (until the next New Moon). Negotiations and diplomacy are highlighted during this period, as it is a favorable time to begin new relationships or to re-define existing ones. Issues of sharing and partnership come to the fore. Increased awareness of the need for someone significant to lean on or to rely on is often associated with this position. Working on, or resolving to work on, relationships that are mutually supportive is a good idea at this time. If you find yourself sensitive to the feeling of lacking support from partners, this may be a good time to ask yourself how companionable you are, and work on developing yourself in this area of life. You might just find that this is a period when you are at your most gracious. It is also a good time to make contacts and to make something public.

June 3-4 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

June 4-7 Some exciting yet unstable energy is with us during this period. Venus forms tense aspects with Saturn, Jupiter, Chiron, and Pluto, and we can experience a confusing mix of feelings on social and romantic levels. Overdoing it, under-doing it, and general see-sawing when it comes to relationships and finances are the theme. Further, the Sun forms tense aspects with Mars and Uranus, inviting us to take risks, but we may not be considering the consequences! It’s a less than ideal time to start a relationship or to make a significant purchase. For you, tensions regarding work, health, and friends could arise.

June 10-11 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

June 9-12 Mercury trines Jupiter (your ruler) and then Uranus, offering us breakthrough insights and downright brilliant ideas if we choose to listen to our intuition. The Sun also trines dreamy Neptune and Venus sextiles Uranus–the picture is very pretty indeed! Let loose, have some fun, and enjoy this smooth energy. This is an excellent period for you with regards to harmonizing with (or attracting) a partner. Good news may come through work or a friend.

June 11 Full Moon in Sagittarius in your solar first house. This Full Moon involves Pluto and is supported by Neptune, intensifying issues illuminated by the Full Moon, but with the potential for acceptance and clearer understanding–even spiritual enlightenment. “Hey, what about me?” is the feeling of a Full Moon in the first house. You’re looking for a bit of attention right now as you feel that life has been too “other-oriented” recently. Try to avoid infantile outbursts. Instead, work on your self-assertiveness. You do count, and there are ways to assert your own needs without stepping on others’ toes. Finding a balance between autonomy and dependence is what this Full Moon is about for you. Your emotions are on your sleeve right now. It is a good time to put your needs first, but doing so with respect for others will take you further. Whether you can succeed as a leader is “tested” right now.

June 12-13 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

June 15-16 Your ruler, Jupiter, forms a tense aspect with the Sun, and you could feel unsupported by circumstances or people, particularly when it comes to your opinions or beliefs. Your leadership abilities may be questioned during this period, and tensions with a close partner are possible.

June 18-19 Mars conjoins Saturn and squares Jupiter. We’re forced to do things by the book, but may not want to. This is not the time to take shortcuts–they won’t work. When we think in big terms, or if we have the urge to expand, we confront obstacles or face reality. Some re-structuring of our lives and of our business goals is now in order. We may be looking for new challenges, sometimes because we are forced to do so (because things are not going exactly as we had planned). We have a desire to grow and expand, but our attitude is tempered with some caution and feelings of restriction. It is best to breathe new life into old plans rather than to strike out with a new plan altogether. Take steps to grow, but don’t overextend yourself at this time or you are bound to face frustrations. The delays we may face now are actually fortunate ones! Patience and endurance leads to accomplishment and slow but steady progress in business and practical matters. Because your ruler, Jupiter, is involved, this could affect you quite personally.

June 19-20 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

June 20-24 Your ruler, Jupiter, squares Saturn, and you could be feeling limited or thwarted. Your vitality may be low. This is not a good time for new financial initiatives.

June 23-24 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

June 30-July 1 Venus trines Chiron and the Sun trines Jupiter (your ruler). Romantic energy is strong, and good will reigns. This is a strong period for both relationships and finances. Healing energies are with us, and we tend to attract good things with our positive attitudes. This is an excellent couple of days for personal self-expression, work, health, friendships, communications of all kinds, and business income.

May 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

May

Overview. The Sun shines its significant light on your work and health sector until the 21st this month. Work, daily tasks and routines, and health regimens are in focus during this period. You are determined to improve your skills, health, and efficiency. It’s a great time to get organized. Little details demand your attention. It’s not the most outgoing time in your year, but it can be a good period for taking care of the details of daily existence and uncluttering your mind in the process! From the 21st, the Sun transits your partnership house, illuminating one-to-one relationships, the need to compromise and share, and your desire to balance your life. During this period, going solo is not instinctive. You seem to need the energies and companionship of other people, and they tend to draw upon you as well. The best way to deal with this period is to acknowledge these needs rather than to push ahead on your own.

The goddess of love moves through your romantic fifth house from the 3rd, when it enters pioneering Aries–a playful, spontaneous, and loving period. You are more able to express affection and creativity during this transit. Your personal style comes over especially well now, and your romantic energies are stimulated. Any new romance begun under this influence is bound to have a romantic, playful, and spontaneous energy to it. Venus enters your sixth house on the 29th. Cooperation and harmony on the job become especially important to you. The social aspect of work grabs your attention. An office romance or flirtation may be part of the picture. You’re most successful doing tasks that involve cooperation and team harmony, or the personal, human side of things.

Mercury moving through your work and health sector from the 5-19 has your mind on mundane affairs–day-to-day details and organization that are essential to your sense of well-being. You can successfully find ways to be more efficient during this period, particularly with the Sun in the same house until the 21st. The planet of communication enters your seventh house on the 21st and stays there into June. Negotiations and one-to-one conversations appeal now. It’s a good time to truly listen to what a partner has to say, and relationship issues are now easily analyzed and sorted out. Leaving your heart out of conversations is good for us from time to time!

The grand trine on May 4-9 involves your ruling planet, Jupiter, and occurs in your emotional sectors. Because Jupiter is your ruler, Mars rules your romance and pleasure sector, and Uranus rules your communications sector, many different key life “departments” are affected. You could very well meet a special person, or significantly enhance an existing romance. The grand trine falls in your emotional sectors, and advances can also be made with family members, and any matter that requires drawing upon your stores of intimate emotion and depth. Pay attention to your dreams, watch for creative opportunities, and take a chance on presenting your ideas. A long-term trend while Jupiter is in Scorpio (until November 2006) is a movement towards spirituality. You are more sensitive to what lies below the surface of things this year. Your intuition is stronger than ever, and you’re paying attention. This grand trine could stimulate further growth in spiritual areas. As well, a Jupiter-Pluto aspect towards the end of the month may provide further stimulus for you to get in touch with what’s going on in your subconscious.

Finances look strong and steady this month. The 7th is an excellent day for sound speculation and investing. The 22nd and 27th are good days for financial gains through a partner and business dealings, and publishing or advertising could be in the financial picture. Work this month is especially creative and even fun. Recognition or a bonus could come your way on the 22nd. Tensions on the job could arise on the 9-10, 16-17, and the 22-24. Surprises on the home front could occur on the 25-26, and affect your job.

Your partner may be especially service-oriented and busy with work this month, or partnership opportunities arise on the job. The whole month is outstanding for attracting love and intimacy. An especially good period for attracting love occurs on the 4-8. Tensions in romantic relations can occur on the 16-17, when there could be a bit of a communication breakdown, and some challenges with lovers could crop up on the 22-24, when a lover is looking for more intimacy while you seem to be just having a good time! Some power politics in your intimate relationships are likely to pop up. Try to read between the lines and sensitize yourself to his or her point of view.

Mars moves through your intimacy sector all month. The overlap of Venus in the fifth and Mars in the eighth suggests an intensely romantic, sexual, and intimate month. If you’re single, this is a great time to meet someone. Sexuality and intimacy are stimulated under this transit. Negative expression of this energy is the tendency towards ego conflicts concerning jointly held property or money. Conflicts with partners over values or possessions are possible. Occasionally, this transit could bring a crisis or ending of some kind. Something you hear about now might disturb or touch you deeply. You are likely to be more strategic in your actions during this period, as you become aware of the subtleties of human interaction. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support.

From the 19-20 is an extremely busy period for you. Mercury and the Sun oppose your Sun, and this could be a time when you are in demand. An especially favorable period of the month is the 3-12, when Venus trines your Sun and your personal style is very much appreciated. It’s easy to spontaneously express your charm and playfulness. Furthermore, the Venus/Mars midpoint opposes your Sun on the 15-18, and you are bound to be feeling especially alive and sexy. The perfect balance of self-assertion and cooperation can help you to be successful in your relationships, or to attract the attention you want. The last week of the month is a strong period for focus and commitment to your goals.

Highlights:

April 27 New Moon in Taurus in your solar sixth house affects you until the next New Moon. The New Moon in the sixth house heralds a time when new diet regimes, healthy routines, and satisfying work schedules can be successfully initiated. It is a time of taking care of business, handling details, and increasing your efficiency by re-organizing or simply by working enthusiastically at tasks that help you get caught up in your work. It is also a good time for analysis of any sort, as critical thinking is now at its peak. This period is marked by a desire to sort things out, but also to be useful.

May 2-3 Venus forms a hard aspect to your ruler, Jupiter. This can be a pleasurable time when self-discipline may be lacking. Avoid excesses. Instead, enjoy a fresh perspective on matters that may have been troubling you.

May 4-9 Some exciting cosmic energy is with us now, with a grand trine involving action-oriented Mars, lucky Jupiter (your ruler), and inventive Uranus. This is a time of “lucky breaks”, although we need to capitalize on opportunities in order to benefit from them. Our intuition is good, we have a feel for new things and ideas, and we can benefit from timely action. Begin a creative activity (or enjoy the fruits of a successful one), and listen to your intuition. As long as we aren’t foolhardy, this is a good time for speculation, self-promotion, and recognition. This grand trine affects your emotional houses, and your life could benefit from a sense of emotional renewal and focus. Your intuition is strong now. It’s also an excellent time for communications of all kinds, pleasure, and romance. With your ruler involved, you could experience sudden surges of energy and bursts of creativity that can lead to exceptional accomplishments. You know what you want and are willing to take the necessary risks to accomplish your goals. You are able to break free of obstacles and limiting circumstances that have been hampering your personal liberation.

May 6-7 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

May 11-12 Venus sextiles Chiron; Mercury sextiles Uranus and opposes your ruler, Jupiter. This is an excellent period for romantic and intimate relationships. Good news or illuminating conversations offer hope and ease your mind. Healing energy is with you now–you have the chance to make amends or to offer support. A confrontation with a co-worker may be frustrating at first, but can lead to new insights.

May 13 Full Moon in Scorpio in your solar twelfth house. This Full Moon is supported by Mars and challenged by Neptune, cautioning us that we may be reading too much (or too little) into issues illuminated by the Full Moon. However, this can be a spiritually enlightening time. Circumstances are such that you have an overwhelming need to be alone. You’ve been busy with all sorts of everyday activities, deeply involved in your work and routines. It’s time to balance your life with some down timeotherwise, you simply don’t feel whole. Issues come to light that originate from deep within. It’s an excellent time to get in touch with what’s been brewing beneath the surface.

May 14-15 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

May 16-17 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

May 16-17 Awkward energy is with us now, and it’s best to lay low. Confusion about where we are headed, and awkward communications can put a damper on our spirits. Relax, reflect, and avoid confrontations.

May 20-21 Venus sextiles dreamy Neptune and contra-parallels exciting Uranus. Romantic energy is strong, but avoid getting into an unrealistic state of mind, as this will only serve to aggravate the tense period coming on May 22-24. This is a time when enlightenment can come in a flash. This is a good time to spend time with friends and to open up the lines of communication with a lover or with children.

May 22-23 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

May 22-24 Venus squares Mars with Mercury intensifying the square. Venus square Mars is a time of romantic misadventures and war between the sexes. With Mercury involved as well, a tendency to say the wrong thing only aggravates the tension. Try not to fly off the handle, and avoid making impulsive decisions with love and money.

You could too easily have a face-off with a co-worker or lover.

May 25-26 Venus trines Pluto and Mercury squares Uranus. Our feelings are intense and impassioned, but not in an offensive or destructive way. Hopefulness for the future is featured. A good time for financial endeavors, especially if they involve computers, technology, and new (futuristic) ideas.

May 26-27 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

April 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

April

Overview. The Sun spotlights your pleasure sector this month. A solar eclipse at the end of March fell in your solar fifth house, and its effects reverberate throughout April (and beyond). The sequence of eclipses in Aries and Libra in the past while have alerted you to the need to for appreciation from others, and the need for togetherness with others. A love affair may begin or end under this influence. New contacts with others may also occur. You are learning to let go of a fear of taking risks, and you are developing the courage to strike out on your own individual and creative path without fear. You are called upon to deal with others in a more personal, involved, and loving manner, rather than falling back on reason and intellect, which detaches you from your feelings. This series of eclipses is about learning to take personal risks, which requires a certain amount of self-confidence. The March eclipse should give you the final push towards a stronger creative identity. In the months ahead, creativity, romance, and children are a strong focus.

Mercury’s retrograde last month likely lead to misunderstandings with family members and poor decision-making with regards to home improvement, moving, and family matters. Your judgment with regards to money and income was not up to par either. Mercury moving forward means that problems you may have had with such matters are lifting. Your judgment was compromised in March, but this becomes a thing of the past in April. Now is the time to resolve problem areas on the home front by talking things through. Reason will do wonders now.

When Venus enters Pisces on the fifth, the goddess of love and money also enters your solar fourth house. This month, you are bound to enjoy some good times at home and with family. Harmony on the domestic front fills an instinctive need, and you may have a strong desire to redecorate and otherwise harmonize the atmosphere at home. Take this opportunity to improve your family relations. Any new relationships started now are bound to be private, deep, and comfortable. Existing relationships take on a more intimate and comfortable tone.

Mars has been moving through your partnership sector, and continues to do so until the fiery planet enters Cancer mid-month. Under this influence, partnerships may suffer from ego conflicts, or adversaries may be challenging. Use this energy to work cooperatively on relationship problems. You may even find that you seem to need someone’s help in order to do what you want to do during this cycle. Mid-month, Mars enters your most intimate sector, fueling up your deepest desires. Sexuality and intimacy are stimulated under this transit. Negative expression of this energy is the tendency towards ego conflicts concerning jointly held property or money. Conflicts with partners over values or possessions are possible. Occasionally, this transit could bring a crisis or ending of some kind. Something you hear about now might disturb or touch you deeply. You are likely to be more strategic in your actions during this period, as you become even more aware of the subtleties of human interaction. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support. Be cautious around the 6th-9th, when Mars opposes Pluto. You could encounter some opposition, most likely coming from a partner or adversary. Your need to express yourself more forcefully could be at the root of the conflict.

Saturn in Leo turning direct this month is excellent news for you. While Saturn was retrograde for the last 4-1/2 months, you may have felt somewhat blocked, especially when it came to finding the time to expand your horizons and venturing forth beyond your everyday activities. Your money-making ability and personal income were also affected (Saturn rules your money sector). These matters are not going to be moving forward quickly just yet, but you will begin to feel more on top of things now. It’s a good time to move forward with plans to structure your life. Although a vacation or other adventure that takes you out of your routine may not happen for a few months, you might want to start thinking about it now. Take this time to structure your personal finances. A great place to start is with a personal budget.

Highlights:

March 29 New Moon in Aries (Total Solar Eclipse) in your solar fifth house. This energy is with you until the next New Moon, and beyond (its effects can extend up to 6 months). Creative self-expression comes under the realm of the fifth house, and a New Moon occurring here sparks the creative juices. Romantic inclinations are also highlighted, as are any kind of celebratory, playful, and just-for-fun endeavors. You will be especially aware of your need for approval and feedback from others, deriving pleasure from the ways your own creativity impact the world around you. This can be a passionate time for you, and a time when you might feel more bold than usual. If you are feeling good about yourself, and especially if you have taken advantage of the time for re-building of confidence that last month’s New Moon in the fourth house brought, you will fairly radiate during this expressive period.

April 2-3 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

April 6-9 Mars opposes Pluto and Mercury forms a tense aspect with Saturn. Conflicts are very possible now, and they likely involve opposition from or with a partner. Avoid taking extreme measures to make things happen your way, and avoid people who might be doing same. Take a break if you can, and pass up on face-offs or battles of willit’s hard to win just now. Trying to get the upper hand is fruitless today.

April 9-10 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

April 13 Full Moon in Libra in your solar eleventh house. This Full Moon is supported by both Neptune and Pluto, offering us creative revelations and solutions to issues illuminated by the Full Moon. You’ve been focusing on what brings you pleasure–your hobbies, romantic activities, and so forth. Now you realize that the role you play in others’ lives (as a spouse, parent, friend) is an important element in your overall happiness. You’re looking for validation from friends and group activities now.

April 16-17 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

April 16-18 Venus conjuncts Uranus in Pisces, the Sun trines Pluto, and Mercury squares Mars. This is a high-energy, potentially productive period if we can avoid being too impulsive. There can be great excitement in love nowa feeling of re-birth, in fact. We could have the gumption to take a chance and speculate on a love that is intense and unpredictable, and we are more decisive than usual. For you, new beginnings in the romance department could feature. A fresh new friendship is possible, and it could be formed close to home or through a family member. A surprising yet illuminating conversation could lift your spirits.

April 19-20 Your ruler, Jupiter, trines the goddess of love and money, Venus. Benefits may come to you, and you could receive news that eases your mind. You’re feeling especially loving, and your manner is particularly attractive. This is a popular and friendly period that is also good for attracting money.

April 19-20 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are all possible.

April 23-25 The Sun and Venus form tense aspects with Saturn just now, and it’s best to avoid new financial undertakings, as they may prove to be “money pits” as time passes. There can be difficulties relating to others, and it’s hard to satisfy the ego. We feel blocked by circumstances or by others. It’s too easy to feel discouraged, but discouragement is a time waster. Gratitude isn’t forthcoming right now, so it’s best to wait it out rather than waste energy letting it get to you.

April 25-26 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

April 29-30 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

April 29-May 1 Your ruler, Jupiter, trines Uranus. A fresh feeling of renewal is with you now. Breakthroughs, however little or big, can be made. This influence suggests some advancement and a measure of good fortune. Your sense of adventure and excitement is strong, and you could have the desire to take a chance through speculation. Some sense of freedom from past constraints is experienced now.

Sagittarius (Born November 23 to December 2) and Sagittarius Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Sagittarius:

March 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

March

Overview. Jupiter, your ruler, continues to square Neptune for the first four weeks of March, suggesting that you may continue to have a hard time defining yourself and your path in life. Speculation is likely to have disastrous results just now–avoid get-rich-quick-schemes! Others might find you are too abstract and distant from the down-to-earth details of daily living. You can be generous without being discriminating, which can result in wastefulness, and you should be careful when investing or taking risks to make sure you have thoroughly analyzed the situation before committing yourself to it. Your dreaminess can be channeled successfully into creative outlets, however. Because your ruler is in the sensual sign of Scorpio, opportunities for sexual expression are strong. Venus is moving through your solar third house this month, and this helps you to come across as quite charming, especially from the 7th to the 17th. You could have the chance to smooth over relations with siblings and neighbors. Social situations can be ego-massaging events during this period. Note, however, that Mercury is retrograde from the 2nd to the 25th, and it is advised to put off decision-making with regards to home improvement, moving, and family matters for the time being. Because Mercury retrograde in Pisces affects the angles of your chart, you may be especially sensitive to all Mercury Retrograde issues–take care with paperwork and back up your computer. Mars moving through your relationships sector may cause a few waves in your close partnerships, particularly from the 23rd to 25th. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need others for support during this period–going it alone doesn’t seem to work for you just now. Even if you try to go it alone, you might find others intruding anyhow!

Highlights:

February 27 New Moon in Pisces in your solar fourth house affects you until the next New Moon. Home and family may be a focus during this phase. On a personal, developmental level, this is a time to not only listen to what is in your gut, but to pay homage to those feelings! What makes you feel safe and secure? This is the time to explore and develop a sense of inner security. Although the fourth house is associated with the home, it is an angular, cardinal house that stirs up activity. This is a time of re-organization and heightened awareness of your roots, issues of intimacy and vulnerability, and it’s an excellent time to come in touch with your feelings and needs. Focusing on your support system and the manner in which you support others is also probable. This is a good time to make long-range plans for the future, to do any type of re-organizing or even re-modeling of the home or home environment, and for family-related activities.

March 5-6 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and you may need to compromise. This is the time during the lunar month that is closest to the “pits.” Most likely time to catch cold, get overlooked, find yourself ignored. Energy may be low and efforts are more ineffectual than usualeither push twice as hard or take the day off and wait for improvement. The spotlight is on others close to you, so be willing to play a supporting role and pass the ball on to someone elseit will come back soon enough.

March 8-9 Your ruler, Jupiter, trines the Sun. Ego-gratifying experiences may be found now, and you may find you are in the right place at the right time. Listen to your gut feelings, and pay attention to your dreams. This is the time when you can successfully solve a problem that has been bothering you. Others notice you and recognize your generosity of spirit.

March 13-14 Monthly career and reputation peak. You are more accountable for what you do and how you do it right now. You are noticed for your accomplishments (or for what you haven’t done). You may receive unexpected word about your performance. You are at your most practical when it comes to dealing and working with others. You are called on to make use of your natural abilities and common sense.

March 13-14 Venus and Chiron align right now, signaling a magical time for making a resolution to repair, heal, and improve relationships. With Mercury retrograde, it’s probably best to keep your plans to yourself for now, but make a new resolution and feel the magical healing powers of Venus-Chiron unfold in your life. Resolutions for you might revolve around effective communication with your loved ones. This is an excellent transit for you, as it forms a harmonious sextile to your Sun. Opportunity is fairly knocking on your door!

March 14 Full Moon in Virgo (Lunar Eclipse) in your solar tenth house. This influence is in effect now and for some months to come. This may be the perfect time to button down career matters that have been under development for a while. Although the pace may be accelerated and last-minute additions come crowding in, you can have a fuller, rosier picture of just where you stand in your profession and what people think of you. Choose this spot for releasing a shotgun blast of self-promotion, whatever it is you do, as public relations has extra carrying power from this Full Moon. The buzz about you comes in a rising crescendo that peaks now, so start figuring out ways to take it to the bank. Although you may be tempted to squirrel yourself away at home, take time out during these few days to wave your own flag.

March 14-15 Your ruler, Jupiter, trines the planet of communication, Mercury. You’re bound to get some great feedback from others right now. It’s an excellent time for you to solve a few problems, particularly with regards to partnerships and career issues. The new perspective you gained February 19-20 is coming back to you now, and you are re-visiting important issues in your life. Good news comes easily and your ideas and concepts are received easily by others and can even become a point of reference or quoted by others in the future.

March 20-21 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. All eyes turn towards you, so be sure to show your best face. This is the time of the lunar month when you get an extra boost of physical energy, when things play in your style, so you don’t have to strain. This is a really good time of the month to get noticed, so get out there and take charge. The spotlight turns up, and you’re on stageperform! Your timing should be perfect, and those around you should find you most spontaneous and alive.

March 22-23 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

March 23-24 Your ruler, Jupiter, forms awkward aspects to the Sun and Mars. Watch for impatience, arguments, and errors of judgment. Don’t bite off more than you can chew, as over-confidence and impulsiveness can be costly right now.

March 25-26 Venus conjuncts Neptune and trines Mars. This is a time to enjoy sensual and dreamy arts. Romance is on the agenda! It’s a magical time for everyone to make a romantic and/or creative wish. For you, communicating with a partner will come easier, and new insights (or a feeling of renewed love and affection) in your relationship is likely.

March 28-29 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

March 29 New Moon in Aries (Total Solar Eclipse) in your solar fifth house affects you until the next New Moon (and beyond, because it’s an eclipsea more potent New Moon). Creative self-expression comes under the realm of the fifth house, and a New Moon occurring here sparks the creative juices. Romantic inclinations are also highlighted, as are any kind of celebratory, playful, and just-for-fun endeavors. You will be especially aware of your need for approval and feedback from others, deriving pleasure from the ways your own creativity impact the world around you. This can be a passionate time for you, and a time when you might feel more bold than usual. If you are feeling good about yourself, and especially if you have taken advantage of the time for re-building of confidence that the last New Moon (in the fourth house) brought, you will fairly radiate during this expressive period.

Sagittarius (Born November 23 to December 2) and Sagittarius Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Sagittarius:

February 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

February

Overview: Financial and work pressures, as well as strains in friendships, ease this month considerably. Venus changing direction early February means that relationships with friends and co-workers (which may have reached a crisis level recently) begin to improve, perhaps dramatically. You can put the past behind you now, and it feels good to do so! This month is a very busy one. You’re taking care of business, attending to many details, and perhaps repairing communication breakdowns that have recently occurred. Your ruler, Jupiter, is square Neptune all month, suggesting that you may have a hard time defining yourself and your path in life. Speculation is likely to have disastrous results just now–avoid get-rich-quick-schemes! Others might find you are too abstract and too distant from the down-to-earth details of daily living. You can be generous without being discriminating, which can result in wastefulness, and you should be careful when investing or taking risks to make sure you have thoroughly analyzed the situation before committing yourself to it. Although personal finances should be improved, it’s simply not the best time to go out on a limb. Status quo is best in this area. In the last week of the month, Mars enters your partnership sector, and you pour your energy into relationship issues. With Mars opposite your Sun then and into the first week of March, you are likely to have to deal with competitiveness from others, or your feelings and emotions may be running against your best interests.

Highlights:

January 29 New Moon in Aquarius is in your solar third house. The third house rules our communication skills, learning, methods, daily interactions and contact, and general “busy-ness”. This is a favorable time for learning something new, feeling at ease in social situations, taking care of the details of daily life, and developing a mental rapport with others. It is a time when you will be more aware of your environment, and when you experience increased alertness. It’s a good time to take tests, fill out forms, start a new course, write letters, make phone calls, and take care of daily tasks with energy.

February 2-3 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

February 5-7 Your ruler, Jupiter, is square the Sun, suggesting it’s not a great time to make plans or decisions. It could be hard to figure out the right move. You may feel frustrated as to where you are headed in life just now. Someone older or in authority may disapprove of your actions or decisions.

February 6-72Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and you may need to compromise. This is the time during the lunar month that is closest to the “pits.” Most likely time to catch cold, get overlooked, find yourself ignored. Energy may be low and efforts are more ineffectual than usualeither push twice as hard or take the day off and wait for improvement. The spotlight is on others close to you, so be willing to play a supporting role and pass the ball on to someone elseit will come back soon enough. Concentrate on communication with a special partner.

February 9-10 After a lengthy Venus retrograde cycle, this is our first good chance at meeting someone new or improving existing relationships. The Moon is in Cancer in your solar eighth house, and it’s a good time for intimate matters with a partner as well as joint finances and taxes.

February 12 Full Moon in Leo in your solar ninth house. Think big, stretch the imagination, push the envelope of your beliefs and feelings — this Full Moon has the potential to be an eye-opener. The energy is in the air to expand your window on the world, especially where it has been an ongoing operation already in the works. The heady feeling of suddenly having put it all together can have you wondering now what to do with it all, but that will take care of itself down the line. Look for good news on the legal front, as things wrap themselves up and come to a conclusion, but don’t count your chickens yet, as it’s easy to overestimate right now. Main issues can get resolved now, as all parties are willing to go an extra mile to agree in principle, if not on the details.

February 12-15 Your ruler, Jupiter, is sextile Venus, and you’re coming across well. Much happiness and joy can come into your life. You are well-liked and especially loving and attractive. Finances go well, and you may attract gains into your life from unexpected or private sources.

February 13-14 Monthly career and reputation peak. You are more accountable for what you do and how you do it right now. You are noticed for your accomplishments (or for what you haven’t done). You may receive unexpected word about your performance. You are at your most practical when it comes to dealing and working with others. You are called on to make use of your natural abilities and common sense.

February 14 An extremely creative day when ideas seem to come out of the blue, and we are strategic enough to apply them. Inspiration comes from a family member. Listen to your intuition!

February 17 From approximately 1:30 PM EST and through the night, a love opportunity. The Moon is in relationship-oriented Libra, and we are at our charming best. Do whatever you can to be around a special someone. Single? Get yourself out there and flirt! Friends and group associations are especially lucky or prosperous just now.

February 19-20 Your ruler, Jupiter, is trine Mercury, and you’re in the position to gain an important new perspective. Your partnerships as well as career and reputation issues go well just now. Communication is easy and smooth, making this a great time to present your case. Travel could be beneficial right now. Good news comes easily and your ideas and concepts are received easily by others and can even become a point of reference or quoted by others in the future.

February 21-22 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. All eyes turn towards you, so be sure to show your best face. This is the time of the lunar month when you get an extra boost of physical energy, when things play in your style, so you don’t have to strain. This is a really good time of the month to get noticed, so get out there and take charge. The spotlight turns up, and you’re on stageperform! Your timing should be perfect, and those around you should find you most spontaneous and alive.

February 23-24 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

February 27 New Moon in Pisces is in your solar fourth house. Home and family may be a focus during this phase. On a personal, developmental level, this is a time to not only listen to what is in your gut, but to pay homage to those feelings! What makes you feel safe and secure? This is the time to explore and develop a sense of inner security. Although the fourth house is associated with the home, it is an angular, cardinal house that stirs up activity. This is a time of re-organization and heightened awareness of your roots, issues of intimacy and vulnerability, and it’s an excellent time to come in touch with your feelings and needs. Focusing on your support system and the manner in which you support others is also probable. This is a good time to make long-range plans for the future, to do any type of re-organizing or even re-modeling of the home or home environment, and for family-related activities.

January 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

January

Much of your focus this month will be on your personal income and finances. With the Venus Retrograde cycle affecting your second house of money and values, you’d be wise to hold on to your money. Take the time to re-think your sources of income and how you spend your cash during this period, and avoid making any big purchases until February or March. Past debts are apt to come back to haunt you for the time being, and, because Venus rules your sectors of friendships and work, you may find that friends and co-workers are a little distant right now. Give them space, and you’ll find everything is back to normal come February. Some heated relations on the job are possible (especially mid-month when Mars opposes Jupiter), but your energy levels should be above par. It’s a good time to start a new health regime–you’ll have the energy and initiative to do so. Most of the year, Jupiter, your ruling planet, is in the position to give you “behind the scenes” luck, and January is no exception. However, with Venus retrograde in your sector of finances, the ruler of that same sector (Saturn) retrograde, and a Full Moon in your eighth house, put off major new financial endeavors for the time being. Instead, look for ways to cut back on purchases, as well as new sources of income. Venus retrograde seems to point to things you already have–you could have a gold mine right under your nose, but it’s up to you to find it. With most planets in your Eastern sector this month, the focus is on you. You’re feeling quite independent and, for the most part, in control of your destiny. All month, your ruler, Jupiter, is parallel Pluto, adding distinct and marked intensity to your personality. You’re not content with anything superficial just now!

Highlights:

December 31-January 1 New Moon in Capricorn. Make a resolution concerning commitment to your career goals on December 31st to January 1st. Think of ways to add more structure and organization to your life. This New Moon occurs in your second house. Heightened sensitivity to the world of the five senses, to your physical environment, and to the security you gain from the solid ground you have built for yourself is in order for this period of time. Attunement to, and appreciation of, the physical world of the senses is the focus, and this is a time to start fresh in terms of how you arrange your life in order to feel a sense of value and worthiness. Financial issues come into focus. Setting realistic financial goals, as well as formulating such things as budgets and other sensible financial planning projects, will be favored during this time. Discovering ways to increase your income is featured. It is also a wonderful time for taking moments to pleasure yourself through earthy, tactile, and comforting endeavors.

January 3-4 Your ruler, Jupiter, forms a pleasing sextile to the Sun and a tense aspect to Mercury. You have an added boost of confidence right now, and people are listening to you. However, be cautious that you don’t exaggerate or overstate. Information overload may get the best of you. Keep it simple.

January 5-6 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

January 8 From 4:35 PM EST to midnight, it’s a good time for business affairs, or making small purchases. Do remember, however, that Venus is retrograde the entire month of January, so hold off, if you can, on major purchases, financial initiatives, or starting new love affairs.

January 10-11 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and you may need to compromise. This is the time during the lunar month that is closest to the “pits.” Most likely time to catch cold, get overlooked, find yourself ignored. Energy may be low and efforts are more ineffectual than usualeither push twice as hard or take the day off and wait for improvement. The spotlight is on others close to you, so be willing to play a supporting role and pass the ball on to someone elseit will come back soon enough. Concentrate on communication with a special partner.

January 14 Full Moon in Cancer in your solar eighth house. It’s good psychic weather for putting the finishing touches on restoration projects, picking up that antique you’ve been chasing down, and clearing out the cobwebs that may have been settling on lesser-used items. You’ll have the courage to toss out those useless things you’ve been hoarding, and the burst of freedom will do you good. Intimacy issues become emotional for you. If you’re feeling especially lonely, this temporary state of mind may just be a catalyst for some big changes on the intimacy front. The theme: finish clearing the decks for action.

January 17-18 Monthly career and reputation peak. You are more accountable for what you do and how you do it right now. You are noticed for your accomplishments (or for what you haven’t done). You may receive unexpected word about your performance. You are at your most practical when it comes to dealing and working with others. You are called on to make use of your natural abilities and common sense.

January 19 From 6 AM to 2PM EST, a great time to get organized on the job, or to start a diet, physical activity, or health regime. Finish up odds and ends, attend to details (especially work-related ones), and then breathe a sigh of uncluttered relief.

January 23 Venus trine Mars today and affects your second and sixth solar houses. An opportunity to expand your income, enhance your relationships, a new love interest, or a creative solution to financial problems may appear. Use your considerable powers of attraction today, particularly on the job!

January 25-26 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. All eyes turn towards you, so be sure to show your best face. This is the time of the lunar month when you get an extra boost of physical energy, when things play in your style, so you don’t have to strain. This is a really good time of the month to get noticed, so get out there and take charge. The spotlight turns up, and you’re on stageperform! Your timing should be perfect, and those around you should find you most spontaneous and alive.

January 27-28 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

January 29 New Moon in Aquarius in your third house. The third house rules our communication skills, learning, methods, daily interactions and contact, and general “busy-ness”. This is a favorable time for learning something new, feeling at ease in social situations, taking care of the details of daily life, and developing a mental rapport with others. It is a time when you will be more aware of your environment, and when you experience increased alertness. It’s a good time to take tests, fill out forms, start a new course, write letters, make phone calls, and take care of daily tasks with energy.

Sagittarius (Born December 3 to 12) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Sagittarius:

December 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

December

Overview. All month, the Sun illuminates your solar first house, highlighting your personal interests and initiatives. You are feeling quite independent during this cycle–not content to take a back seat to anyone, nor to follow anyone’s lead but your own. You are likely to feel more confident and vital now, and you tend to make a distinct impression on others during this cycle. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage. It’s a great period to do something entirely new and pioneeringto go solo in some area of your life. The time to make a presentation is the 14-21, when Mercury is on your Sun and you make yourself perfectly clearand others listen to you with rapt attention!

Jupiter’s recent entry into your sign is a feel-good energy, but doesn’t directly affect your Sun (or Ascendant) until January 2007. Don’t feel left out, however, because due to Jupiter’s retrograde in April, its conjunction to your Sun spans over many months and is in effect from January through to the beginning of November!

In the first half of the month, enthusiastic energy and a brand new, exciting perspective is brought to your inner, spiritual world. Inspiration, a reward for past actions, or a renewed sense of spiritual vitality comes now. This sense of inner wellness is something that can provide you with a feeling of a new lease on life, even if it’s a private revelation for the time being.

The ball is in your court this month, and it’s up to you how to handle it. You are enjoying a surge of optimism. The more positive energy you radiate, the more opportunities open up. While youve been uncharacteristically withdrawn much of the year, you are now becoming more willing to experience life to its fullest. You attract the right people and the right resources, and encounters with others are consistently working to your advantage. A partner has an important revelation around the 4th. Reasonable speculation may pay off around the 10th.

Personal finances tend to take the back seat for the time being (they will figure prominently in January). The most opportune periods of the month for finances include the 1-3, 5-7, 16-17, and 24. Speculation and new financial initiatives are best avoided on the 4th, 18-19, and 30. Minor financial problems may be part of the picture on these dates.

Romantic and creative matters are rather strong for you in December. Opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 8-13, 26-27, and 30-31. These periods represent power days for personal magnetism, charisma, and creativity. The 9-12 is particularly spectacular for romantic and partnership matters. You could find that you are seeing eye to eye with an existing partner, and singles could enjoy an opportunity to meet someone special. Issues that could be annoying or disconcerting concerning romantic matters are more likely to occur on the 20-22–love is unpredictable on those days. Of course, these would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. Close partnership matters run well on the 9-10, 12, 19, and 25th; and could be challenging on the 4th, 15th, 22, and 29.

Venus continues to transit your solar first house until the 19th. During this trend, a strong desire for companionship and sociability dominates. The areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through your own self, by presenting an elegant, graceful, magnetic, happy, socially outgoing, attractive personality, with much joy for living. You are more bold in your love nature, yet not aggressive either. You make friends easily during this cycle, and you are especially fond of love and admiration. Artistic self-expression is important, possibly through music, clothing or writing.

Venus warms your solar second house from the 19th. As the natural ruler of this sector of the chart, Venus feels right “at home” here. This is a rather content position for Venus, although there can be some restlessness when it comes to money and spending it–you are more inclined to want more things around you! Financial security and enjoyment of the good things in life are important to you, although you also value simple pleasures. The ability to relate well with others might enhance your own personal finances during this period. You may find yourself in a position in which there is a blending of financial matters with social or public affairs. This is a stable position for love matters and close relationships. You value those who make you feel comfortable, and the familiar is more important to you than someone new during this cycle.

Mercury continues to keep your mind on private matters until the 14th. Your mental and communicative energies are turned inward during this period. On a positive level, you may search for spiritual truth and mental enlightenment. Creative endeavors could flourish now, particularly those that draw upon the emotions or that require creative visualization skills, such as poetry, art, acting, and other such activities. You are likely to require a certain amount of solitude, or even periods of seclusion, in order to get your thoughts together or to be productive. You are less likely to chat indiscriminately during this transit, and tend to be a little secretive or tight-lipped for the time being. This may be important, in fact, because this position is sometimes associated with the uncovering of secrets, so discretion may be in order. Its a good time to do research.

Mercury transits your solar first house from the 14th. This is a cycle in which you tend to talk more readily, particularly about your own personal likes and dislikes or your personal past. Your demeanor is light-hearted and curious, and others might turn to you for advice, as you tend to be more rational than usual. This is the time of year when you can most easily use the power of words to attract what you want for yourself. Your honesty and willingness to communicate openly impresses others. If you are in a profession dealing with words, ideas, or communications, this is a very positive and fruitful time for you. An active and restless spirit prevails, which stimulates many changes in personal affairs. Your mind is constantly assimilating facts and figures. There are times when you could find it difficult to turn the thinking process off, especially at bedtime when a good night’s sleep is most important. Study, mental activity paper work, letter writing, skilled manual dexterity, or frequent short trips may dominate much of your free time. Always maintain a positive state of mind. Negative thoughts can easily act on the health of your body.

Mars finishes up its transit in your privacy sector on the 20th. Until then, much of your energy could be channeled into private matters–a lot is going on behind the scenes, even though you are in demand in many areas of your life! This is the time to research and reflect upon your goals. It can be a time when past actions catch up with you–and this is not necessarily a bad thing! Unconscious behavior patterns could influence the way you assert yourself. Some may experience insomnia during this phase, especially if they are not allowing themselves the chance to recoup and if they are not letting their intuition serve them. Others may enjoy a more active dreaming life (this includes day-dreaming), and, if allowed to run free, the imagination can serve them very well, especially with regards to goals and new concepts.

Mars enters your solar first house on the 20th, where its energy is especially dynamic. Pioneering activities are what capture your attention during this cycle that began for you near the end of November. It’s natural to lead during this period, not to follow others’ lead! You are very decisive, energetic, and headstrong. This is a time when you simply won’t take no for an answer. Taking action comes naturally now. You are able to stand your ground and assert yourself more than usual during this transit. You have energy at your disposal to move your plans forward, and you are more enterprising. You want to leave your mark on the world in some way–however big or small–and you are more able to make an impression than usual. If circumstances are such, you are able to easily fight back. In fact, you may be somewhat combative under this influence, and you may have a short temper. Avoid being pushy. Take charge of your life, but don’t bulldoze over others in the process! This is an excellent transit for assertiveness and physical vitality. Love affairs may also be stepped up during this period. On the rare occasion when an accident occurs, it is more likely to involve the head or face.

Overall, the best periods of the month for you are the 2-12, when circumstances and others naturally support your goals; and the 20-31, when you very easily take charge and experience direct and natural confidence in your ability to take the initiative. Grab opportunities to advance your career, enjoy romance, or to boost your reputation around the 9-12.

Highlights:

December 5-6 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

December 9-12 Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter align, and the Sun sextiles Neptune. Tremendous enthusiasm, newfound vigor, and optimism characterize this period. We are inspired, hungry for new experiences, and eager to share our ideas with others. Inspiration, a reward for past actions, or a renewed sense of spiritual vitality comes now. This sense of inner wellness is something that can provide you with a feeling of a new lease on life, even if it’s a private revelation for the time being.

December 19-20 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

December 21-22 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

December 28-29 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

Sagittarius (Born December 3 to 12) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Sagittarius:

November 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

November

Overview. All month, the Sun “hibernates” in your privacy sector, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have–to things, people, and routines–and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break. It’s not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it’s a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries. Situations that have naturally outgrown their usefulness in your life can now be put behind you. Endings of natural cycles may be part of the picture at this time of year. Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house at the beginning of December.

Jupiter entering your sign this month doesn’t yet place Jupiter on your Sun, but this shift is imminent. Jupiter changes sign approximately once a year, so this ingress is significant and represents a new shift of energy that will stay with us until December 2007. From January 2007 until February 2008, Jupiter will officially be transiting your solar first house, bringing noticeable improvements to your environment and self-confidence to your personality. Your personality is more expansive and enthusiastic. This transit heightens your optimism and generosity. This has the potential for being a relaxed, fortunate, and hopeful time. Events occur that help you to overcome problems that previously seemed challenging or even insurmountable. You are able to further your personal ambitions with more ease. At times, you may feel like the sky is the limit! You might need to guard against becoming too puffed-up and full of yourself, however. There is also a risk of overindulgence and other forms of extreme behavior. Be careful that your expansiveness doesn’t expand your waistline! These positive circumstances won’t necessarily fall into your lap, and are unlikely to come all at once, although they are more likely due to Jupiter’s direct influence on your life. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life.

Venus warms your privacy sector from the 1-25. Matters of the heart touch you deeply. You may willingly play a supportive role to a partner, offering him or her more compassion and selfless love. If a romance were to begin during this period, it would likely be a private or even secret one. What you don’t know might just be helping you right now, because what’s happening behind your back is moving in your favor and all will come out happily when your dreams become a reality soon enough. Venus comes out of “hiding” on the 25th, when your emotions will be on your sleeve. Before that, laying low is best in the love department.

Venus plays in your solar first house from the 25th. During this trend, a strong desire for companionship and sociability dominates. You want to maintain peace and harmony at all costs. You try to be just and fair when making decisions, as you do your best to see both sides of an issue. Women are likely to enter your life, helping or hindering personal or business affairs. You prefer the company of others, rather than going it alone. Others notice and perhaps admire you for your pleasant and cheerful personality. This is good for your ego, endowing greater self-esteem and an excellent opinion of yourself. This renewed popularity increases success, for you have the tact and diplomacy to deal with people well. Attention is placed on personal appearance, with an interest in jewelry, hairstyling, and clothing. You are more bold in your love nature, yet not aggressive either. You make friends easily during this cycle, and you are especially fond of love and admiration. Artistic self-expression is important, possibly through music, clothing or writing.

Mars brings dynamic energy to your solar twelfth house from the 9th. This is the time to research and reflect upon your goals. It can be a time when past actions catch up with you–and this is not necessarily a bad thing! It could also be a time when much of your energy is channeled into private matters, or when you prefer that others not observe what you are doing. This is natural–you may just as well do your best work alone for now. Unconscious behavior patterns could influence the way you assert yourself. Some may experience insomnia during this phase, especially if they are not allowing themselves the chance to recoup and if they are not letting their intuition serve them. Others may enjoy a more active dreaming life (this includes day-dreaming), and, if allowed to run free, the imagination can serve them very well, especially with regards to goals and new concepts.

Highlights:

November 3-4 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others!

November 7-8 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor.

Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

November 14-15 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

November 22-23 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward.

Sagittarius (Born December 3 to 12) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Sagittarius:

October 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

October

Overview. All month, the Sun illuminates your solar eleventh house. It’s a sociable sector, and that’s exactly how you are feeling–happy, lighthearted, and social. You’re more detached than usual, as you tend to intellectualize things in your life these days. Conferences or other gatherings that are related to future developments and/or shared ideals and interests succeed for you at this time. You may lead, facilitate, or organize an important group function. A lively agenda is promised, you’re attracting quite a bit of interest, and your energy for making contact with others is strong. Personal relationships take on a fun, if impersonal, tone now. Activities with children increase. You are more stimulated by all that is unconventional during this cycle, and your ideas are original and progressive now. From the 13th, some down time is in order. Before that, enjoy your lively calendar!

A pleasantly busy agenda keeps you on the move and in social demand most of the month. Friends need your attention, and you are happy to lend a hand. A romantic matter blossoms around the 7th. The need to negotiate and compromise with a partner near the end of the month could put a damper on the fun, but is necessary in order for you to move forward with a lighter load.

Venus transits your sociable eleventh house from the 8th. The areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through forming harmonious, warm social friendships – probably related to group activities within a club. You may meet someone through such group activities; consequently, your interests will be shared. Whether or not you do, the bottom line is that sharing interests with someone is what makes you happy during this cycle. Venus here enlivens your friendships and group associations with charm and grace. You are more peace-loving than usual and slightly detached on a personal level. If a romance were to occur during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.

Mercury moves through your privacy sector from the 9th. Your mental and communicative energies are turned inward during this period. On a positive level, you may search for spiritual truth and mental enlightenment. Creative endeavors could flourish now, particularly those that draw upon the emotions or that require creative visualization skills, such as poetry, art, acting, and other such activities. You are likely to require a certain amount of solitude, or even periods of seclusion, in order to get your thoughts together or to be productive. You are less likely to chat indiscriminately during this transit, and tend to be a little secretive or tight-lipped for the time being. This may be important, in fact, because this position is sometimes associated with the uncovering of secrets, so discretion may be in order. Its a good time to do research. Running a fine-toothed comb over events from the past could help you to better understand the present.

All month, Mars transits your eleventh house. Group activities and cooperative efforts are the best way to achieve your goals right now. In fact, you have all sorts of ideas about what you want to do. Avoid allowing the ego to attempt to dominate others. You prefer to lead a group rather than follow during this period, and there are certainly ways to do so without stepping on others’ toes. As well, the best way to achieve your goals during this period is to work as a team, or to at least to do some networking. You may have more energy than usual to want to organize projects. Your humanitarian impulse may be stimulated. The role you play for other people in your life becomes the focus. You may feel that your schedule gets overloaded at this time with things to do (usually for others).

With many planets in Libra, a compatible sign to yours, much of the month should feel “right”. In other words, while the world around you isn’t quite playing in your style, it’s a style that you’re comfortable with. This is especially true for you from the 4-16–perhaps the strongest period of the month for you.

Highlights:

October 7-8 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

October 11-12 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

October 18-19 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

October 28-29 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

September 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

September

Overview. All month, the Sun illuminates your career and reputation sector. More than any other time of the year, your focus is drawn to your “place” or standing in the outer world, and your reputation. This is the time when you are more interested in, and focused on, accomplishing something important. Your competency is something that you are especially sensitive to during this cycle. You want to shine. Your vision is practical right now, and you want to see tangible results for your efforts. More contact with authority figures is likely during this period. Recognition is likely to come your way whether you ask for it or not, and the responsibility that comes right along with it! Do what you feel is right, keeping in mind that you are at your most visible during this period in the year.

Pluto in your sign turns direct this month after an approximately 6-month retrograde period. Slowly but surely, you feel renewed, more confident, and more effective. You are ridding yourself of guilt that has been undermining your confidence.

With regards to romance, the 14-16 is the most active and favorable period of September. A love opportunity could pop up on the job, but it may be problematic. Be a little more cautious with your heart on the 5-8 and 25-27. These are less than ideal dates for scheduling first dates.

Venus continues to move through your adventure sector until the 14th. You are all the more attractive and charming with this position, which increases your popularity. Public relations work, promotion, and other such endeavors are favored now. It is more about how you express yourself than the specifics of what you are saying that helps sway others to your position. There could be especial rapport with foreigners and with women if you are traveling during this period. If a romance were to begin now, it is more likely to be with someone of a different background or educational level, or someone you meet through travel. You have a taste for the exotic now that can show up in many areas of your life–who you are attracted to, what you buy, the kind of art or entertainment you enjoy, and so forth.

Venus journeys through your career and reputation sector from the 14th. Venus is charming, friendly, and affectionate, and her presence in your career and reputation sector brings social opportunities and charm to your career. You are coming across well at work now, and romantic opportunities, or simply more chances to socialize and network, are likely.

Chatty Mercury is in your solar tenth house from the 1-18. Your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to professional and worldly ambitions where knowledge and education are pursued in order to enhance career prospects or social standing during this period. You might even be able to talk your way into a managerial post. Executive ability is with you now. You are bound to think and talk a lot about financial security and professional matters. Your thinking is more logical and precise than usual, with the ability to come straight to the point of any matter under discussion. Mental work or a good deal of short distance travels may be connected with your vocation right now.

Mercury moves through your eleventh house from the 18th, suggesting that your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to the pursuit of truth, mainly through the mental companionship of friends. Intuitive insights and original reasoning ability produce the occasional touch of genius – you often comprehend issues that others find quite incomprehensible during this cycle! Your objective and original thinking can be used for the scientific investigation of advanced metaphysical concepts and humanitarian ideals – or other profound issues that could lead humanity towards a better future. You could also do a lot of thinking and musing about your own happiness and long-term goals.

Mars is in your solar tenth house until the 23rd, continuing to add energy and verve to your career and public life. You “chafe at the bit” when bosses try to restrict your freedom of movement, speech, or actions. For this reason, your career interests may be shifting, seeking new and challenging career opportunities that offer more flexibility in self-expression and personal decisions.

Mars enters your eleventh house on the 23rd and will stay there until the last week of October. Group activities and cooperative efforts are the best way to achieve your goals right now. In fact, you have all sorts of ideas about what you want to do. Avoid allowing the ego to attempt to dominate others. You prefer to lead a group rather than follow during this period, and there are certainly ways to do so without stepping on others’ toes. As well, the best way to achieve your goals during this period is to work as a team, or to at least to do some networking. You may have more energy than usual to want to organize projects. Your humanitarian impulse may be stimulated. The role you play for other people in your life becomes the focus. You may feel that your schedule gets overloaded at this time with things to do (usually for others).

The most rewarding periods of the month overall are likely to be from the 22nd forward, when energy is easy to find from within and without. You are able to get your ideas across effortlessly now.

Highlights:

September 1-2 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

September 3-4 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

September 15-17 Mercury-Mars conjunction is semi-square Saturn, the Sun squares Pluto, and Venus opposes Uranus. This is very potent, and potentially disruptive, energy! Although energy is brought to our communications, especially regarding personal relationships, we must be conscious of the tendency to be overly critical, sarcastic, or forceful with what we say and how we say it. We are likely to come to a very clear, definite decision at this time and to let others know exactly what we want, and we have no qualms about stirring up controversy in defense of our ideas or plans! Our comments may be particularly loaded, and discussions could easily escalate into arguments. Sudden or impulsive attractions to people and to material items that later prove to be unappealing occur now. This is not a good time to start a new relationship nor for any significant financial undertaking. We may not see eye to eye with our loved ones, and we might be taken off guard by unexpected events. It’s wise to hold off on decision-making with regards to finances and relationships. However, if we can separate rebellion from a sincere need for change, we might open ourselves up to new ways of dealing with others. We might find ourselves particularly impatient with rules. You may experience a powerful and possibly frustrating conversation or communication with or about co-workers–watch for harsh words. Power plays may be part of the picture, and could involve career, reputation, and business matters.

September 21-22 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

September 28-29 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

Sagittarius (Born December 3 to 12) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Sagittarius:

August 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

August

Overview. All month, the Sun illuminates your adventure sector. Your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith. This is a cycle in which you seek a higher meaning to your life, and/or seek out new experiences that take you beyond the here and now, and beyond the mundane details of day-to-day life. Anything that broadens your experiences attracts now. A lack of superficiality finds you straight to the point, interested in the truth of things. It would be wise for you to consider scheduling a vacation, adventure of sorts, or a course that expands your mind. These don’t have to happen now, but taking the time to recognize your needs for escaping the daily grind, taking a few risks, and feeding your spirit for self-expression through some form of adventure or higher learning will help you to feel good about yourself. The only caution with this cycle is that you could lose touch with everyday affairs and important details.

Mercury picks up speed after a period of retrogradation in July.

Problems with money or any shared/joint resources, intimacy and sexuality, career decisions, and partnerships matters are resolved for the most part early this month, particularly after the 4th. You can become more confident about decision-making with regards to joint finances, loans, career matters, and partnership issues.

Venus journeys through your intimacy sector until the 21st. During this cycle, the areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through harmonious sexual relationships, friendships, and business interests. You attract others like bees to honey now, and you favor a partner who is intelligent, with a somewhat mysterious flair about them. A financial boost is likely, or you may gain financially through your partner. Your social circle may include people who are interested in mysteries or those who are engaged in some form of psychological work. A deep personal connection and intimate exchange can be healing, replenishing, and soothing to your soul. This is a good time to work on resolving grievances, differences in values, or money problems in a close relationship. There are also apt to be favorable developments regarding shared assets, jointly owned property, borrowing money, or repaying loans to the satisfaction of all concerned. You are likely to get both the financial backing and the emotional support you need to succeed. On a more personal level, intimate relationships are intensified. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.

Venus warms your adventure sector from the 21st. The areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through a love of philosophy, study, intellectual interests, traveling abroad for pleasure, religion, and art. A wise, relaxed and pleasantly philosophical attitude towards life is with you during this cycle. You are more self-expressive and adventurous with regards to expressing your affections. A love interest who attracts you during this cycle may be somebody who you previously wouldn’t consider attractive, or someone whose cultural background is very different than yours. Your perceptions of beauty, in general, are broadened and widened now, and this can extend to things that attract you, including objects and ideas. You have a taste for the exotic and the spirit to match.

Chatty Mercury is in your intimacy sector until the 17th, along with Venus. Your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to the growth and development of the mind. Much of your knowledge may be gained through intuitive means rather than the study of books at this time. There is an aptitude for business and other financial dealings. Your mental disposition is ideally suited to work of an investigative nature, research, psychotherapy, psychiatry, police
or detective work. Focus the light of understanding and honest communication on emotionally-charged topics such as sexuality and intimacy, feelings about the power dynamics in your partnerships, and money you share with significant others. You can have a more objective and fair view of such things now, and could clarify any long-standing issues related to any of this. On a practical level, it is the time to handle joint finances, material assets or property you hold in common with another, and matters pertaining to inheritances, taxes, or commercial interests.

Mercury is in your solar ninth house from the 17th. You’re thinking about the “big picture” rather than the mundane circumstances and details of your life during this cycle. Your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to the expansion of the intellect through foreign travel, philosophy, higher education and other profound studies.

Mars energizes your career sector from the 7th. During this period, you are likely to exert your energy and initiative by actively pursuing your career and more worldly ambitions. Courage, ambition, energy, enterprise, force, emotional involvement, business acumen, and a strong compulsive drive for success may lead to special achievements or professional recognition during this cycle. You like to see practical results for your efforts and take pride in doing a job correctly. You may become a force to be reckoned with in career and professional life. However, if you let your argumentative, impatient, or aggressive side come out to play, you may create difficulties on occasion. Patience, tolerance, and a less-hasty attitude to events should be cultivated. This transit stimulates your ambition and/or your desire to be recognized for your accomplishments. Whether it’s professional or personal, you are likely to have an increased desire for others to notice you. This can be a good time to become self-employed or start a business if other factors (and Mars itself) are favorable. Conflicts with those in authority are possible now. You may pour more energy into self-promotion or business/career activities.

The most rewarding periods of the month overall are likely to be from the 17-29, when both Mercury and Venus form lovely trines to your Sun, and you are coming across swimmingly. However, from the 7-23, Mars squares your Sun, and life is a little hectic. Your energy levels could suffer during this period.

Highlights:

July 25 New Moon in Leo in your solar eighth house affects you until the next New Moon. This is a time of empowerment. It is a good time to focus on issues of intimacy as well as developing self-mastery skills. You may experience increased awareness of otherswhat makes them tickas well as your own internal motivations during this period. It is a time when intimacy and deep levels of sharing are heightened. It is also a favorable time to start a financial plan, savings plan, take out a loan or consolidate, and do work in accounting.

July 28-29 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

August 7-8 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

August 13-14 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

August 17-18 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise.

The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

August 23 New Moon in Virgo in your solar ninth house affects you until the next New Moon. The ninth house rules our spirit to grow, explore, and expand beyond the “regular” experiences in our lives. The New Moon here may bring some restlessness and dissatisfaction with regular routines. Make an effort to initiate new projects or activities that expand your mind, feed your spirit for adventure, and stretch your imagination. You may feel renewed by a new perspective on your life, something philosophical or spiritual that you read or learn, or an adventure that takes you away from the mundane routines in your life.

August 24-25 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now.

Sagittarius (Born December 3 to 12) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Sagittarius:

July 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

July

Overview. All month, the Sun highlights your solar eighth house, and all that is deeply personal comes into focus. Intimate matters become especially important to you during this cycle. Just how well you are handling your life comes up for inspection. Your self-mastery skills and psychological predisposition matter to you more than usual. This is the time of year when you are most desirous of change on a deep level. Clearing out psychic “junk” or ridding yourself of bad habits may be part of the picture now. You are more willing than usual to explore life’s secrets. This cycle brings greater in-depth understanding and an inclination to delve beneath the surface of matters to get to the bottom of them. Research uncovers new material that allows you to develop a better overall picture of the year’s events. This is an especially introspective cycle during which you have the chance to truly uncover your personal strengths and talents. On a more mundane level, you may be dealing with joint finances and shared resources now.

The Mercury retrograde cycle from the 4-28 affects your eighth house of intimacy, shared resources, and personal transformation. Avoid decision-making regarding your money or any shared/joint resources, avoid filing taxes, and side-step arguments with loved ones that revolve around intimacy and sexuality. An argument over joint finances can also get you into hot water. Hold back. Because Virgo and Gemini are on the angles of your chart, you may be especially sensitive to communication mishaps associated with Mercury retrograde. A partner may be expressing him or herself in ways that you can easily misinterpret, or he or she may be less communicative. Try to read between the lines instead of focusing on the words chosen.

Jupiter, your ruler, forms a healthy trine to the Sun on the 1st, which is excellent for credibility, feeling appreciated and “counted”, recognition, and intuition. This is a power period, as is the 26-27, when your ruler trines sweet Venus. This is a time of feeling loved and valued. Others appreciate you and you are especially magnetic. The 13-14 could be a somewhat challenging period, when work-related problems are possible, and you are feeling undervalued in general. A partner (business or personal) is re-visiting old issues that youd rather forget altogether. Money matters that, in your mind, seemed to have been settled crop up again. Even though relationship and career matters can be a little wacky this month, you have Lady Luck on your side. Youre more confident than you have been feeling recently, and your cheerfulness can only bring good things into your life.

Not much activity with your personal finances sector suggests that your money and possessions are not the most important topic this month. However, shared finances and resources are in focus. You could experience a few challenges from the 1-6, when you may be held accountable for a purchase, or you could feel blocked on a financial level. A clash of values regarding money may occur on the 14th, and impulsive spending habits are something you might regret in the last few days of the month.

Love affairs and partnerships, such as marriage, could see some conflicts from the 4-6. Misunderstandings are likely now. However, an excellent period for attracting or augmenting love affairs occurs on the 13-16. Your lover is feeling especially adventurous this month, and you are sure to enjoy this side of him or her. Close personal relationships, including marriage or other committed partnerships, may require some serious smoothing over this month. Misunderstandings are possible, and a partner could be returning to a previous position or stance for the time being. Fortunately, Venus in your 7th and 8th helps you to smooth a partner’s ruffled feathers quite effectively.

Work and health matters should run well overall this month. Avoid scheduling either medical appointments or job interviews on the 5-7, 13-14, 21-22, and 24th. If you can, save them for the 1-2, 9-10, and 26-30.

Venus moves through your partnership sector from the 2-27. Special attention to and from a partner is in focus, and flattery will get you everywhere if you use it wisely. Set aside some private time when no one else can get in the way of the feelings you want to share. Give to a partner exactly what you would like to receive just now. It’s not about you right now–it’s about someone else close, and the sweeter your attentions, the more delicious your rewards will be! Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle. You have a greater need than usual for contact and exchange with an intimate partner. If single, you are more willing than normal to enter into a committed relationships. In general, you are adaptable when it comes to your affections, and others are more receptive to your friendly overtures.

Venus makes her way through the deep, dark, and intimate solar eighth house from the 27th. You are rather introspective when it comes to your affections and the love you share. A deep personal connection and intimate exchange can be healing, replenishing, and soothing to your soul. This is a good time to work on resolving grievances, differences in values, or money problems in a close relationship. There are bound to be favorable developments regarding shared assets, jointly owned property, borrowing money, or repaying loans to the satisfaction of all concerned during this cycle. Financial or business affairs are favored at this time and you may meet a benefactor through friends or in a social atmosphere. You are likely to get both the financial backing and the emotional support you need to succeed. On a personal level, intimate relationships are intensified. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.

Mars enlivens your adventure and higher mind sector all month. You have the courage and determination to act on your convictions. It’s a fabulous time for promoting your ideas and beliefs, although coming on too strong could work against you. If you can’t travel, you’ll feel like doing so, or at least travel in your mind, simply because you have a great urge to expand your horizons in some manner. Energies thrown toward recreation, travel, or just cooking up great new ideas are well spent and serve to refresh and renew your vitality. Creative projects can flourish with enlarged focus and redoubled efforts that somehow don’t tire you out. Time flies when you’re having fun and leaves you with more vigor than when you began. Big, ambitious, adventurous ideas can come to you in a rush during this cycle, propelled by the urge to do something you’ve never done before.

The most rewarding period of the month is likely to be from the 1-6, when Mars harmonizes with your Sun and Jupiter is stationary. This is a time when your vital energy is flowing well. Although there may be some challenging issues to deal with during this period, you are feeling especially vital and dynamic, and solving problems empowers you now.

Highlights:

June 25 New Moon in Cancer just behind your solar eighth house affects you until the next New Moon. This is a time of empowerment. It is a good time to focus on issues of intimacy as well as developing self-mastery skills. You may experience increased awareness of otherswhat makes them tickas well as your own internal motivations during this period. It is a time when intimacy and deep levels of sharing are heightened. It is also a favorable time to start a financial plan, savings plan, take out a loan or consolidate, and do work in accounting.

July 1-2 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

July 3-5 Mercury is stationary retrograde now, and will remain retrograde until the 28th–a cycle when rethinking things is the name of the game. When Mercury is stationary,

July 8-9 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

July 21-22 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

Sagittarius (Born December 3 to 12) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Sagittarius:

June 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

June

Overview. The Sun highlights your solar seventh house all month, and your one-to-one relationships are in focus. It’s a great time to balance your personal interests with what would be best for a significant other. The emphasis is on “us” rather than “me” now. You need the energies, companionship, and support of other people, and they also are drawing upon you a great deal. The need to compromise and share, and your desire to balance your life, are strong now. During this period, going solo is not instinctive. The best way to make use of this period is to acknowledge these needs rather than to push ahead on your own.

Until the 7th, Venus moves through your romance and pleasure sector, continuing to emphasize recreation and pleasant relations with romantic partners, as well as the power to attract romance. Venus enters your solar sixth on the 7th, and you should have plenty of opportunities to socialize on the job, or at least to create and enjoy a more harmonious working environment. An office romance or flirtation, or playing matchmaker at work, may be part of the picture. You’re most successful doing tasks that involve cooperation and team harmony.

Uranus’ retrograde this month suggests that a family member might be a little distant as he or she could be stuck on something from the past. You are also concerned about your own sincerity when it comes to your domestic relationships and the style in which you communicate. Formalities and small talk don’t satisfy right now. Finances could demand some attention around the 16-19, when an investment or speculation may pay off. Challenging days for finances occur on the 4-5, when over-spending has its consequences, the 13-15, when travel plans don’t seem to be within budget, and the 21-23, when you should avoid making important purchases, as your judgment is impaired. The 9th is an excellent day for finances, however, when increases can come through joint finances, investments, or taxes. As well, June 30 to July 1 is an excellent period for increasing your income, and when you might be thinking about investing your money in travel and recreational pursuits.

Work is especially service-oriented from the 7th, and you may not get a whole lot of recognition but you could derive satisfaction from being helpful. Your attitude towards work this month could be going through some changes, or you may be doing some digging and researching in connection to your career. Tensions on the job could arise on the 4-7, when work seems restrictive and full of pressure, and the 14-15, when family affairs and the demands of work are in conflict. As well, the 14-15 could be challenging due to miscommunications. The 21-28 is an especially productive period for you. The 10-11 and June 30-July 1st bring rewards on the job.

Love affairs may be especially romantic and dramatic this month with Mars, the ruler of your romance and pleasure sector, entering Leo. This is even more probable from the 20th, when Mars moves into your adventurous solar ninth. Creativity is also at a peak during this cycle. A cross-cultural love affair may be part of the picture. As well, you could be especially interested in “getting away from it all”, and recreation like camping, hiking, and various other sports could feature. Getting serious about love is possible on the 16-19, when making a commitment isn’t out of the question. With the ruler of your partnership sector in the solar 8th from the 9th, there could be an intense sexual attraction, or a partner may be especially in need of more intimacy and personalized attention. A strong period for attracting love occurs on the 16-19. The 1-3 may also be quite active on a romantic level, although likely quite tumultuous as well. Tensions with romantic partners could arise on the 6-11 and 20-21.

The planet of action, Mars, moves through your intimacy sector until the 20th. Sexuality and intimacy are stimulated under this transit. Negative expression of this energy is the tendency towards ego conflicts concerning jointly held property or money. Conflicts with partners over values or possessions are possible. Occasionally, this transit could bring a crisis or ending of some kind. Something you hear about now might disturb or touch you deeply. You are likely to be more strategic in your actions during this period, as you become aware of the subtleties of human interaction. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support. Mars moves through your solar ninth house from the 20th, bringing activity and passion to the expression of your opinions and belief system. This could mean you are more inclined to engage in vigorous philosophical debates, legal contests, or fiery rhetoric in defense of a cherished belief or cause. Essentially, you have a stronger than usual desire for freedom on all levels. It’s a good idea to do something active and physical, or make sure you have things to do that allow you to set your own pace. You don’t enjoy following the lead of others now. During this period, you are especially enthusiastic and more bold than usual. Some restlessness and hunger for adventure is experienced now. Essentially, you are looking to expand your activities, and you may find that you have a lot of energy for higher studies, travel, or simply new subjects.

Mercury enters your solar eighth house on the 9th, and you are inclined to do some serious “digging”, analyzing, and researching. You are looking for honest, intimate answers to emotionally-charged questions. It’s a good time to discuss power dynamics in your partnerships, as well as shared resources and finances, simply because you are more able to be objective about these matters.

You are bound to experience an overall feeling of being energetically supported by circumstances and by others when Mars trines your Sun from the 20th. This is not the best of months, however, for presenting your ideas.

Highlights:

May 27 New Moon in Gemini just behind your solar seventh house affects you for approximately 4 weeks (until the next New Moon). Negotiations and diplomacy are highlighted during this period, as it is a favorable time to begin new relationships or to re-define existing ones. Issues of sharing and partnership come to the fore. Increased awareness of the need for someone significant to lean on or to rely on is often associated with this position. Working on, or resolving to work on, relationships that are mutually supportive is a good idea at this time. If you find yourself sensitive to the feeling of lacking support from partners, this may be a good time to ask yourself how companionable you are, and work on developing yourself in this area of life. You might just find that this is a period when you are at your most gracious. It is also a good time to make contacts and to make something public.

June 11-12 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

June 13-14 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

June 20-24 Your ruler, Jupiter, squares Saturn, and you could be feeling limited or thwarted. Your vitality may be low. This is not a good time for new financial initiatives.

June 24-25 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

May 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

May

Overview. The Sun shines its significant light on your work and health sector all month. Work, daily tasks and routines, and health regimens are in focus during this period. You are determined to improve your skills, health, and efficiency. It’s a great time to get organized. Little details demand your attention. It’s not the most outgoing time in your year, but it can be a good period for taking care of the details of daily existence and uncluttering your mind in the process!

Venus is in your home and family sector until the 12th, and your domestic life can be a source of great pleasure, comfort, and enjoyment now. It’s a great time for beautifying the home through redecorating, landscaping, and the like. Intimate and comfortable
gatherings with family and close friends are favored. The goddess of love enters your romantic fifth house from the 12th–a playful, spontaneous, and loving period. You are more able to express affection and creativity during this transit. Your personal style comes over especially well now, and your romantic energies are stimulated. Any new romance begun under this influence is bound to have a romantic, playful, and spontaneous energy to it. Casual relationships can take on a more intimate tone this month with Mars, the ruler of your fifth house, in your intimacy sector. Taking things to a whole new level is probable.

Your mind is on fun and pleasure until the 10th. You are filled with especially creative ideas, and you could put this energy to work with writing, composing, and other such creative endeavors. Intellectual diversions attract. Mercury travels through your work and health sector from the 10-24, and your mind turns to more mundane affairs–day-to-day details and organization that are essential to your sense of well-being. You can successfully find ways to be more efficient during this period, particularly with the Sun in the same house all month. The planet of communication enters your seventh house on the 24th. Negotiations and one-to-one conversations appeal now. It’s a good time to truly listen to what a partner has to say, and relationship issues are now easily analyzed and sorted out. Leaving your heart out of conversations is good for us from time to time! This is an excellent placement for Mercury, as it is in the house that it rules in your chart. However, it could also indicate that your partner is going through a self-interested phase.

An especially favorable period of the month is the 12-20, when Venus trines your Sun and your personal style is very much appreciated. It’s easy to spontaneously express your charm and playfulness. Furthermore, the Venus/Mars midpoint opposes your Sun in the last week of the month, and you are bound to be feeling especially alive and sexy. The perfect balance of self-assertion and cooperation can help you to be successful in your relationships, or to attract the attention you want.

Highlights:

May 7-8 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

You could too easily have a face-off with a co-worker or lover.

May 23-24 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others!

Sagittarius (Born December 3 to 12) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Sagittarius:

April 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

April

Overview. The Sun spotlights your pleasure sector this month. A solar eclipse at the end of March fell in your solar fifth house, and its effects reverberate throughout April (and beyond). The sequence of eclipses in Aries and Libra in the past while have alerted you to the need for appreciation from others, as well as the need for togetherness with others. A love affair may begin or end under this influence. New contacts with others may also occur. You are learning to let go of a fear of taking risks, and you are developing the courage to strike out on your own individual and creative path without fear. You are called upon to deal with others in a more personal, involved, and loving manner, rather than falling back on reason and intellect, which detaches you from your feelings. This series of eclipses is about learning to take personal risks, which requires a certain amount of self-confidence. The March eclipse should give you the final push towards a stronger creative identity. In the months ahead, creativity, romance, and children are a strong focus.

While Venus continues her journey through your communications sector until mid-month, your sense of humor and charm are strong. You may enjoy more opportunities than usual to socialize (especially in your immediate environment and neighborhood) as well as to improve relations with friends. The goddess of love and money enters your solar fourth house on the 15th, and good times at home and with family are featured. Harmony on the domestic front fills an instinctive need, and you may have a strong desire to redecorate and otherwise harmonize the atmosphere at home. Take this opportunity to improve your family relations. Any new relationships started now are bound to be private, deep, and comfortable. Existing relationships take on a more intimate and comfortable tone.

Mars has been moving through your partnership sector, and continues to do so all month. Under this influence, partnerships may suffer from ego conflicts, or adversaries may be challenging. Use this energy to work cooperatively on relationship problems. You may even find that you seem to need someone’s help in order to do what you want to do during this cycle. Be cautious around the 6th-9th, when Mars opposes Pluto. You could encounter some opposition, most likely coming from a partner or adversary. Your need to express yourself more forcefully could be at the root of the conflict.

Saturn in Leo turning direct this month is good news for you. While Saturn was retrograde for the last 4-1/2 months, you may have felt somewhat blocked, especially when it came to finding the time to expand your horizons and venturing forth beyond your everyday activities. Your money-making ability and personal income were also affected (Saturn rules your money sector). These matters are not going to be moving forward quickly just yet, but you will begin to feel more on top of things now. It’s a good time to move forward with plans to structure your life. Although a vacation or other adventure that takes you out of your routine may not happen for a few months, you might want to start thinking about it now. Take this time to structure your personal finances. A great place to start is with a personal budget.

Highlights:

April 10-11 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

April 13 Full Moon in Libra in your solar eleventh house. This Full Moon is supported by both Neptune and Pluto, offering us creative revelations and solutions to issues illuminated by the Full Moon. You’ve been focusing on what brings you pleasureyour hobbies, romantic activities, and so forth. Now you realize that the role you play in others’ lives (as a spouse, parent, friend) is an important element in your overall happiness. You’re looking for validation from friends and group activities now.

April 17-18 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

April 30-May 1 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise.

Sagittarius (Born December 3 to 12) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Sagittarius:

March 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

March

Overview. Jupiter, your ruler, continues to square Neptune for the first four weeks of March, suggesting that you may continue to have a hard time defining yourself and your path in life. Speculation is likely to have disastrous results just now–avoid get-rich-quick-schemes! Others might find you are too abstract and distant from the down-to-earth details of daily living. You can be generous without being discriminating, which can result in wastefulness, and you should be careful when investing or taking risks to make sure you have thoroughly analyzed the situation before committing yourself to it. Your dreaminess can be channeled successfully into creative outlets, however. Because your ruler is in the sensual sign of Scorpio, opportunities for sexual expression are strong. Venus begins its journey through your solar third house mid-month, and this helps you to come across as quite charming, especially from the 17th to the 28th. You could have the chance to smooth over relations with siblings and neighbors. Social situations can be ego-massaging events during this period, and if you are looking for love, you may just find it right under your nose–perhaps in your neighborhood. Note, however, that Mercury is retrograde from the 2nd to the 25th, and it is advised to put off decision-making with regards to home improvement, moving, and family matters for the time being. Because Mercury retrograde in Pisces affects the angles of your chart, you may be especially sensitive to all Mercury Retrograde issues–take care with paperwork and back up your computer. Mars moving through your relationships sector from March 10th and throughout April may cause a few waves in your close partnerships, particularly from the 23rd to 25th. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need others for support during this period–going it alone doesn’t seem to work for you just now. Even if you try to go it alone, you might find others intruding anyhow!

Highlights:

March 6-7 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and you may need to compromise. This is the time during the lunar month that is closest to the “pits.” Most likely time to catch cold, get overlooked, find yourself ignored. Energy may be low and efforts are more ineffectual than usualeither push twice as hard or take the day off and wait for improvement. The spotlight is on others close to you, so be willing to play a supporting role and pass the ball on to someone elseit will come back soon enough.

March 14-15 Monthly career and reputation peak. You are more accountable for what you do and how you do it right now. You are noticed for your accomplishments (or for what you haven’t done). You may receive unexpected word about your performance. You are at your most practical when it comes to dealing and working with others. You are called on to make use of your natural abilities and common sense.

March 14-15 Your ruler, Jupiter, trines the planet of communication, Mercury. You’re bound to get some great feedback from others right now. It’s an excellent time for you to solve a few problems, particularly with regards to partnerships and career issues. The new perspective you gained February 19-20 is coming back to you now, and you are re-visiting important issues in your life. Good news comes easily and your ideas and concepts are received well by others and can even become a point of reference or quoted by others in the future. Because this occurs at the time of your monthly career and reputation peak, good news may come with regards to your work.

March 21-22 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. All eyes turn towards you, so be sure to show your best face. This is the time of the lunar month when you get an extra boost of physical energy, when things play in your style, so you don’t have to strain. This is a really good time of the month to get noticed, so get out there and take charge. The spotlight turns up, and you’re on stageperform! Your timing should be perfect, and those around you should find you most spontaneous and alive.

March 23-24 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up now–the discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

March 29-30 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you!

January 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

January

This month, your ruling planet, Jupiter, is parallel to both Neptune and Pluto, giving an especial spiritual edge to your personality. Many planets occupy your solar second house, highlighting your personal finances and income. Venus is moving backwards here as well, and this means that it’s not a good time to forge ahead with financial plans. Wait until after February 3rd for that. Instead, you have the opportunity to research, formulate a budget, work on debts already accumulated, and uncover new ways to make money from resources you already have. The retrograde cycle of Venus affects more than just your personal finances, as it is tied to your sectors of friendships and work. If co-workers and friends seem to be emotionally distant, try not to let it get you down. Give them space, and you’ll find that everything returns to normal after February 3rd when Venus moves forward again. The best day of the month for attraction and discovery is the 23rd. You’re simply not thinking straight in the second half of the month with Jupiter, your ruling planet, square Neptune, the planet of illusion. With Neptune in your sector of communication, a tendency for foggy thinking is strong.

Highlights:

January 6-7 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! Like-minded (and hearted) people gravitate toward you. Make use of this smooth energy by taking the time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others!

January 11-12 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and you may need to compromise.

January 13 This is a power day for you. You may make an important new contact, receive an invitation, or receive important news regarding your personal finances and job.

Sagittarius (Born December 13 to 21) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Sagittarius:

December 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

December

Overview. Until the 12th, the Sun continues its transit through your solar twelfth house–a period that is designed for rest, reflection, and tending to private matters. Projects or issues that have naturally run their course are now ended. During this cycle, a sense of personal fulfillment is reinforced by resolving subconscious influences or matters from the past. You will instinctively withdraw from the hustle and bustle of daily life in an attempt to get to know yourself, your goals, and your needs better. This is an imaginative, perhaps dreamy, time of the year. Some may indulge in self-pity at this time, but as long as they pull strength from it, it might simply be a healthy process. You need time alone now in order to sort things out and to avoid overload!

From the 12th, the Sun illuminates your solar first house, highlighting your personal interests and initiatives. You are feeling quite independent during this cycle–not content to take a back seat to anyone, nor to follow anyone’s lead but your own. You are likely to feel more confident and vital now, and you tend to make a distinct impression on others during this cycle. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage. It’s a great period to do something entirely new and pioneeringto go solo in some area of your life. The time to make a presentation is the 21-28, when Mercury is on your Sun and you make yourself perfectly clearand others listen to you with rapt attention!

Jupiter’s recent entry into your sign is a feel-good energy, but doesn’t directly affect your Sun (or Ascendant) until November 2007.

You may have been uncharacteristically withdrawn much of the year, and you begin to come out of your shell this month and the next, when you are becoming more willing to experience life to its fullest. You attract the right people and the right resources, and encounters with others are consistently working to your advantage. Reasonable speculation may pay off around the 10th.

This month, three inner planets (the Sun, Mercury, and Venus) align with Pluto and also form a harmonious trine to Saturn. With Saturn in your solar ninth and Pluto in your solar first, opportunities abound to spread your word, expand your mind, and broaden your audience. Because Saturn and Pluto are directly influencing your Sun (or Ascendant), this represents a powerful period when you are more determined and persevering than ever. Others are likely to turn to you for advice. Teaching may play a big role in your life now and into 2007. Authors will find a broader audience. Trips could be especially rewarding for you–they can provide a pleasant breather from pressures in your life. This link is a long-term trend that occurs again next August and is in effect until then. Determination, perseverance, and a deep sense of purposefulness are brought to your life and your creative projects. The dates in December when you could see initial benefits, or at least hints of things to come, occur on the 6-8, 16-18, and 24-25.

Romantic and creative matters are rather strong for you in December. Opportunities to enhance or attract romance occur on the 8-13, 26-27, and 30-31. These periods represent power days for personal magnetism, charisma, and creativity. The 9-12 is particularly spectacular for romantic and partnership matters–something taking place behind the scenes is active now. A past lover may resurface, or you could begin a relationship that tends to be quite private. You could find that you are seeing eye to eye with an existing partner, and singles could enjoy an opportunity to meet someone special. Issues that could be annoying or disconcerting concerning romantic matters are more likely to occur on the 20-22–love is unpredictable on those days. Of course, these would be less than ideal days to go on a first date, for example. Close partnership matters run well on the 9-10, 12, 19, and 25th; and could be challenging on the 4th, 15th, 22, and 29.

Venus transits your solar first house from the 3-27. During this trend, a strong desire for companionship and sociability dominates. The areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through your own self, by presenting an elegant, graceful, magnetic, happy, socially outgoing, attractive personality, with much joy for living. You are more bold in your love nature, yet not aggressive either. You make friends easily during this cycle, and you are especially fond of love and admiration. Artistic self-expression is important, possibly through music, clothing or writing. So, while you are somewhat withdrawn on certain levels, your desire to socialize is not compromised!

Mercury keeps your attention on private matters until the 21st. Your mental and communicative energies are turned inward during this period. On a positive level, you may search for spiritual truth and mental enlightenment. Creative endeavors could flourish now, particularly those that draw upon the emotions or that require creative visualization skills, such as poetry, art, acting, and other such activities. You are likely to require a certain amount of solitude, or even periods of seclusion, in order to get your thoughts together or to be productive. You are less likely to chat indiscriminately during this transit, and tend to be a little secretive or tight-lipped for the time being. This may be important, in fact, because this position is sometimes associated with the uncovering of secrets, so discretion may be in order. Its a good time to do research.

Mercury transits your solar first house from the 21st. This is a cycle in which you tend to talk more readily, particularly about your own personal likes and dislikes or your personal past. Your demeanor is light-hearted and curious, and others might turn to you for advice, as you tend to be more rational than usual. This is the time of year when you can most easily use the power of words to attract what you want for yourself. Your honesty and willingness to communicate openly impresses others. If you are in a profession dealing with words, ideas, or communications, this is a very positive and fruitful time for you. An active and restless spirit prevails, which stimulates many changes in personal affairs. Your mind is constantly assimilating facts and figures. There are times when you could find it difficult to turn the thinking process off, especially at bedtime when a good night’s sleep is most important. Study, mental activity paper work, letter writing, skilled manual dexterity, or frequent short trips may dominate much of your free time. Always maintain a positive state of mind. Negative thoughts can easily act on the health of your body.

Mars transits your privacy sector all month, indicating that much of your energy could be channeled into private matters–a lot is going on behind the scenes, even though you are in demand in many areas of your life! This is the time to research and reflect upon your goals. It can be a time when past actions catch up with you–and this is not necessarily a bad thing! Unconscious behavior patterns could influence the way you assert yourself. Some may experience insomnia during this phase, especially if they are not allowing themselves the chance to recoup and if they are not letting their intuition serve them. Others may enjoy a more active dreaming life (this includes day-dreaming), and, if allowed to run free, the imagination can serve them very well, especially with regards to goals and new concepts. This is a preparation period for a considerably more active and dynamic period when Mars transits your Sun in January.

Overall, the best periods of the month for you are the 12-22, when circumstances and others naturally support your goals; and the 21-27, when you have much confidence in getting your message across. Grab opportunities to advance your career, enjoy romance, or to boost your reputation around the 9-12.

Highlights:

December 1-2 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

December 2-3 Hard aspects operative now include Sun-Uranus, Venus-Chiron, and Mercury-Saturn. Negative thinking and expectations, as well as a generally rebellious mood, are not conducive to easy relating. Avoid pushing matters just now, particularly on a professional level. Challenges could also arise with a close partner.

December 4 Full Moon in Gemini in your solar sixth house. Some sort of fulfillment, culmination, or revelation regarding your desires or new initiatives at the last New Moon on November 20th occurs now. Avoid blaming others for your own state of discontent. You can use this surge of emotional energy to make positive changes to your routines. Do something to improve your work conditions if they are annoying you–even if it’s a small act of kindness with a co-worker or bringing in something to brighten up your desk or office. Get going on your exercise or nutrition program that you’ve been toying with in your mind. This may also be a time when a work project comes to fruition or completion.

December 9-12 Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter align, and the Sun sextiles Neptune. Tremendous enthusiasm, newfound vigor, and optimism characterize this period. We are inspired, hungry for new experiences, and eager to share our ideas with others. Inspiration, a reward for past actions, or a renewed sense of spiritual vitality comes now. This sense of inner wellness is something that can provide you with a feeling of a new lease on life, even if it’s a private revelation for the time being.

December 12-13 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

December 20-21 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

December 22-23 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

Sagittarius (Born December 13 to 21) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Sagittarius:

November 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

November

Overview. Until the 12th, the Sun illuminates your sector of friends, groups, and dreams coming true. It’s a sociable sector of your chart, and that’s exactly how you are feeling–happy, lighthearted, and social. Group affiliations capture your attention. Connections can be made now and networking pays off. Being part of a community or circle of friends and building your social network is important to you at this time. This is a rather happy, goal-oriented cycle. A lively agenda is promised, you’re attracting quite a bit of interest, and your energy for making contact with others is high. A stronger sense of community is with you during this cycle. Relationships take on a fun, if impersonal, tone now. Activities with children increase. You are more stimulated by all that is unconventional during this cycle, and your ideas are original and progressive now. This is a time to follow your dreams and ideals, and to plant a seed in the form of a wish for the future.

From the 12th, the Sun “hibernates” in your privacy sector, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have–to things, people, and routines–and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break. It’s not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it’s a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries. Situations that have naturally outgrown their usefulness in your life can now be put behind you. Endings of natural cycles may be part of the picture at this time of year. Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house at the beginning of December.

A number of planets enter your sign in the last week of the month and in early December, which is fabulous news for year. Its the beginning of a year-long cycle in which you gradually experience more confidence, generosity, and success. Its an excellent period for recognition, financial and legal matters, and commercial affairs. You have a new vision for your life, and youre bound to stumble upon new ways to broaden your horizons. Until then, life is quiet for you as you naturally pull back from the rat race. Rest well for busier times to come.

Uranus direct on the 19th gives us all a blast of electric energy. Moving forward in your third house, and as the ruler of your third, this suggests new energy is brought to your communications, learning experiences, transportation, and casual connections to others. Stagnation in these areas begins to lift. A new insight about your domestic life could figure. Alternatively, an unexpected communication could be part of the picture in the weeks surrounding the 19th. Uranus always acts to disrupt the status quo, often bringing surprising or erratic events.

Jupiter entering your sign this month doesn’t yet place Jupiter on your Sun, and thus its influence is very subtle for you for the time being. Jupiter changes sign approximately once a year, so this ingress is significant and represents a new shift of energy that will stay with us until December 2007. Jupiter does not officially move into your solar first house until November 2007. Until November 2007, Jupiter continues to transit your twelfth house, benefiting activities carried out behind the scenes, quietly, alone, or in secret. More compassion and sensitivity enters your personality during this cycle. This position helps to allay self- destructive tendencies, deep-seated fears, and other deep-rooted problems, acting much like a guardian angel. Charitable and unselfish motivations bring benefits. New age studies increase your wisdom. This is an excellent time for any type of compassionate, mystical, or spiritual undertaking. Work that involves serving the physical, psychological, or spiritual needs of others can be rewarding. You are able to reconcile differences with those who may have been working secretly against you. Research can be especially productive. You may have psychic experiences or precognitive dreams. At any rate, your dreaming world is lighter, helpful, and more intuitive. Some people enter into a private romance during this cycle. In general, help seems to be there when you need it. These positive circumstances won’t necessarily fall into your lap, and are unlikely to come all at once. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life.

Venus warms your privacy sector from the 9th. Matters of the heart touch you deeply. You may willingly play a supportive role to a partner, offering him or her more compassion and selfless love. If a romance were to begin during this period, it would likely be a private or even secret one. What you don’t know might just be helping you right now, because what’s happening behind your back is moving in your favor and all will come out happily when your dreams become a reality soon enough. Venus comes out of “hiding” on the 25th, when your emotions will be on your sleeve. Before that, laying low is best in the love department.

Mercury, the planet of communication, continues to activate your solar twelfth house until the 6th, after which it dips back into your solar eleventh house for the remainder of the month. You have an active mind and the ability to come up with unusual ideas during this cycle. If this energy is used well, you can harness the power of your mind to turn your wishes into actuality. Intuitive insights and original reasoning ability produce the occasional touch of genius – you often comprehend issues that others find quite incomprehensible during this cycle! Your objective and original thinking can be used for the scientific investigation of advanced metaphysical concepts and humanitarian ideals – or other profound issues that could lead humanity towards a better future. You could also do a lot of thinking and musing about your own happiness and long-term goals. The only caution here is that Mercury is retrograde and then its storm until the 22nd, when communications can be challenging or awkward and decision-making foggy.

Mars brings dynamic energy to your solar eleventh house until the 21st. Group activities and cooperative efforts are the best way to achieve your goals right now. In fact, you have all sorts of ideas about what you want to do. Avoid allowing the ego to attempt to dominate others. You prefer to lead a group rather than follow during this period, and there are certainly ways to do so without stepping on others’ toes. As well, the best way to achieve your goals during this period is to work as a team, or to at least to do some networking. You may have more energy than usual to want to organize projects. Your humanitarian impulse may be stimulated. The role you play for other people in your life becomes the focus. You may feel that your schedule gets overloaded at this time with things to do (usually for others).

Mars activates your solar twelfth house from the 21st. This is the time to research and reflect upon your goals. It can be a time when past actions catch up with you–and this is not necessarily a bad thing! It could also be a time when much of your energy is channeled into private matters, or when you prefer that others not observe what you are doing. This is natural–you may just as well do your best work alone for now. Unconscious behavior patterns could influence the way you assert yourself. Some may experience insomnia during this phase, especially if they are not allowing themselves the chance to recoup and if they are not letting their intuition serve them. Others may enjoy a more active dreaming life (this includes day-dreaming), and, if allowed to run free, the imagination can serve them very well, especially with regards to goals and new concepts.

Highlights:

November 4-5 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

November 5 Full Moon in Taurus in your solar fifth house. This Full Moon is emotionally passionate and potentially creative, but disillusionments may be part of the picture. Some sort of fulfillment, culmination, or revelation regarding your heart’s desire at the last New Moon on October 22nd occurs now. You want to have fun, and the demands of your larger goals in life may have been eclipsing your pleasure-seeking activities. It can be hard to find time for everything you want to do, but without creative self-expression (be it romantic or playful), you simply won’t feel complete. It’s time to do something self-expressive, fun, and creative. You may be required to complete a creative project at this time. You could feel an overwhelming need to pour your heart out to a lover, or a romantic affair reaches some sort of epiphany. There could be a whirlwind of activity surrounding your child or children.

November 8-9 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

November 15-16 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

November 25-26 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

Sagittarius (Born December 13 to 21) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Sagittarius:

October 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

October

Overview. Until the 13th, the Sun puts a spotlight on your tenth house–the most visible sector of the chart. This is the most ambitious period of the year for you. You are more visible and perhaps in demand. Your personal fulfillment now is reinforced most by accepting responsibility for others and for the job you do. At this time of year, your more serious, hard-working, and perhaps sober side comes out for others to see. For some, pessimism gets the upper hand. For most, it’s a satisfyingly goal-oriented and disciplined cycle. Focus is on what you do, how you do it, and what you accomplish. Do whatever you can to adopt a serious approach to business because you are in the spotlight.

From the 13th, the Sun illuminates your solar eleventh house. It’s a sociable sector, and that’s exactly how you are feeling–happy, lighthearted, and social. You’re more detached than usual, as you tend to intellectualize things in your life these days. Conferences or other gatherings that are related to future developments and/or shared ideals and interests succeed for you at this time. You may lead, facilitate, or organize an important group function. A lively agenda is promised, you’re attracting quite a bit of interest, and your energy for making contact with others is strong. Personal relationships take on a fun, if impersonal, tone now. Activities with children increase. You are more stimulated by all that is unconventional during this cycle, and your ideas are original and progressive now. From the 13th, some down time is in order. Before that, enjoy your lively calendar!

A pleasantly busy agenda keeps you on the move and in social demand this month. Friends need your attention, and you are happy to lend a hand. The need to negotiate and compromise with a partner near the end of the month could put a damper on the fun, but is necessary in order for you to move forward with a lighter load.

Venus transits your career and reputation sector until the 16th. Venus is charming, friendly, and affectionate, and her presence in your career and reputation sector brings social opportunities and charm to your career. You are coming across well at work now, and romantic opportunities, or simply more chances to socialize and network, are likely. Sometimes this is a time when a partnership is formed with someone who one meets through business affairs or who is success and status oriented.

Venus transits your sociable eleventh house from the 16th. The areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through forming harmonious, warm social friendships – probably related to group activities within a club. You may meet someone through such group activities; consequently, your interests will be shared. Whether or not you do, the bottom line is that sharing interests with someone is what makes you happy during this cycle. Venus here enlivens your friendships and group associations with charm and grace. You are more peace-loving than usual and slightly detached on a personal level. If a romance were to occur during this time frame, it would be characterized by a strong feeling of camaraderie, but it could also be rather impersonal and perhaps lacking in depth and intimacy.

Mercury transits your eleventh house until the 18th. You have an active mind and the ability to come up with unusual ideas during this cycle. If this energy is used well, you can harness the power of your mind to turn your wishes into actuality. Intuitive insights and original reasoning ability produce the occasional touch of genius – you often comprehend issues that others find quite incomprehensible during this cycle! Your objective and original thinking can be used for the scientific investigation of advanced metaphysical concepts and humanitarian ideals – or other profound issues that could lead humanity towards a better future. You could also do a lot of thinking and musing about your own happiness and long-term goals.

Mercury moves through your privacy sector from the 18th. Your mental and communicative energies are turned inward during this period. On a positive level, you may search for spiritual truth and mental enlightenment. Creative endeavors could flourish now, particularly those that draw upon the emotions or that require creative visualization skills, such as poetry, art, acting, and other such activities. You are likely to require a certain amount of solitude, or even periods of seclusion, in order to get your thoughts together or to be productive. You are less likely to chat indiscriminately during this transit, and tend to be a little secretive or tight-lipped for the time being. This may be important, in fact, because this position is sometimes associated with the uncovering of secrets, so discretion may be in order. Its a good time to do research. Running a fine-toothed comb over events from the past could help you to better understand the present.

From the 8th, Mars transits your eleventh house. Group activities and cooperative efforts are the best way to achieve your goals right now. In fact, you have all sorts of ideas about what you want to do. Avoid allowing the ego to attempt to dominate others. You prefer to lead a group rather than follow during this period, and there are certainly ways to do so without stepping on others’ toes. As well, the best way to achieve your goals during this period is to work as a team, or to at least to do some networking. You may have more energy than usual to want to organize projects. Your humanitarian impulse may be stimulated. The role you play for other people in your life becomes the focus. You may feel that your schedule gets overloaded at this time with things to do (usually for others).

With many planets in Libra, a compatible sign to yours, much of the month should feel “right”. In other words, while the world around you isn’t quite playing in your style, it’s a style that you’re comfortable with. This is especially true for you from the 14-23–perhaps the strongest period of the month for you.

Highlights:

October 1-2 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

October 6-7 Full Moon in Aries in your solar fourth house. This Full Moon is emotionally passionate, self-centered, aggressive, and potentially creative. The last two weeks have found you working hard towards your career goals and other public matters. The demands of your personal life are now paramount. Striking a balance between energy spent on work and energy spent on domestic matters is essential now. Balanced attention to your public and personal lives is what you need to focus on. It’s time to prioritize. Otherwise, you run the risk of over-extending yourself. A home, family, or property matter could grab your complete attention at this time.

October 19-20 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

October 26-27 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

Sagittarius (Born December 13 to 21) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Sagittarius:

September 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

September

Overview. Until the 12th, the Sun shines a spotlight on your adventure sector. Your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith. This is a cycle in which you seek a higher meaning to your life, and/or seek out new experiences that take you beyond the here and now, and beyond the mundane details of day-to-day life. Anything that broadens your experiences attracts now. A lack of superficiality finds you straight to the point, interested in the truth of things. It would be wise for you to consider scheduling a vacation, adventure of sorts, or a course that expands your mind. These don’t have to happen now, but taking the time to recognize your needs for escaping the daily grind, taking a few risks, and feeding your spirit for self-expression through some form of adventure or higher learning, will help you to feel good about yourself. The only caution with this cycle is that you could lose touch with everyday affairs and important details.

From the 12th, the Sun illuminates your career and reputation sector. More than any other time of the year, your focus is drawn to your “place” or standing in the outer world, and your reputation. This is the time when you are more interested in, and focused on, accomplishing something important. Your competency is something that you are especially sensitive to during this cycle. You want to shine. Your vision is practical right now, and you want to see tangible results for your efforts. More contact with authority figures is likely during this period. Recognition is likely to come your way whether you ask for it or not, and the responsibility that comes right along with it! Do what you feel is right, keeping in mind that you are at your most visible during this period in the year.

A magnificent partnership opportunity comes your way in the first week of the month, when all personal matters also seem to be working in your favor. This is a time when your charm takes you places. Youre especially charming and well-received on the 18th as well. New directions in your career are in store for you, although they have been in the works for the last six months. Although you have been in the dark, you will know exactly where youre headed by the end of the month.

The Lunar Eclipse on the 7th stimulates your solar third house. Surprises surrounding your siblings, neighbors, or classmates are in store. Something that has been in hiding or brewing under the surface of things comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. Your sector of communications is involved. This could manifest, for example, as the culmination of a writing project, an event involving a sibling that grabs your complete attention, a flurry of activity in your immediate environment or neighborhood that demands attention, a letter or other communication that holds a big surprise, and other such possibilities.

Jupiter, your ruler, squares Neptune from the 20-29, affecting your second and eleventh houses. We may be misled easily under this influence–by others, or by our own unrealistic expectations. An inability to focus on important and realistic details, some disorganization, and extravagance or exaggeration, is likely now. You may be challenged to defend your ideals. Giving too much of your time and/or resources to others may be an issue now, and could leave you feeling discouraged if others are not appreciating your efforts. This may play out with family members, with your finances, or with friends and associates. Be careful that you are not deceived. As well, avoid financial speculation during this period.

Venus moves through your adventure sector until the 22nd. You are all the more attractive and charming with this position, which increases your popularity. Public relations work, promotion, and other such endeavors are favored now. It is more about how you express yourself than the specifics of what you are saying that helps sway others to your position. There could be especial rapport with foreigners and with women if you are traveling during this period. If a romance were to begin now, it is more likely to be with someone of a different background or educational level, or someone you meet through travel. You have a taste for the exotic now that can show up in many areas of your life–who you are attracted to, what you buy, the kind of art or entertainment you enjoy, and so forth.

Venus journeys through your career and reputation sector from the 22nd. Venus is charming, friendly, and affectionate, and her presence in your career and reputation sector brings social opportunities and charm to your career. You are coming across well at work now, and romantic opportunities, or simply more chances to socialize and network, are likely.

Chatty Mercury is in your solar tenth house from the 7-25. Your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to professional and worldly ambitions where knowledge and education are pursued in order to enhance career prospects or social standing during this period. You might even be able to talk your way into a managerial post. Executive ability is with you now. You are bound to think and talk a lot about financial security and professional matters. Your thinking is more logical and precise than usual, with the ability to come straight to the point of any matter under discussion. Mental work or a good deal of short distance travels may be connected with your vocation right now.

Mercury moves through your eleventh house from the 25th, suggesting that your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to the pursuit of truth, mainly through the mental companionship of friends. Intuitive insights and original reasoning ability produce the occasional touch of genius – you often comprehend issues that others find quite incomprehensible during this cycle! Your objective and original thinking can be used for the scientific investigation of advanced metaphysical concepts and humanitarian ideals – or other profound issues that could lead humanity towards a better future. You could also do a lot of thinking and musing about your own happiness and long-term goals.

Mars is in your solar tenth house all month, adding energy and verve to your career and public life. You “chafe at the bit” when bosses try to restrict your freedom of movement, speech, or actions. For this reason, your career interests may be shifting, seeking new and challenging career opportunities that offer more flexibility in self-expression and personal decisions. This transit stimulates your ambition and/or your desire to be recognized for your accomplishments. Whether it’s professional or personal, you are likely to have an increased desire for others to notice you. This can be a good time to become self-employed or start a business if other factors (and Mars itself) are favorable. Conflicts with those in authority are possible now. You may pour more energy into self-promotion or business/career activities.

The most rewarding periods of the month overall are likely to be from the 1-6, when your charm is strongest, and the 25-30, when you are able to get your ideas across effortlessly.

Highlights:

September 2-3 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

September 4-5 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

September 7 Full Moon in Pisces in your solar third house. This is a potent Full Moon–a Lunar Eclipse–that can affect us for months after it occurs. The last two weeks have found you somewhat restless and in need of more from life than the mundane. Now the mundane is catching up with you. Errands need to be run, people are talking your ear off, you need to do some paperwork and answer calls. An important document could arrive, or a sudden need to run an important errand or to take a short trip could be part of the picture. You are pushed to find a balance now. Do what needs to be done so that you can free yourself up for more adventurous and fulfilling activities.

September 10-11 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

September 14-15 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

September 15-17 Mercury-Mars conjunction is semi-square Saturn, the Sun squares Pluto, and Venus opposes Uranus. This is very potent, and potentially disruptive, energy! Although energy is brought to our communications, especially regarding personal relationships, we must be conscious of the tendency to be overly critical, sarcastic, or forceful with what we say and how we say it. We are likely to come to a very clear, definite decision at this time and to let others know exactly what we want, and we have no qualms about stirring up controversy in defense of our ideas or plans! Our comments may be particularly loaded, and discussions could easily escalate into arguments. Sudden or impulsive attractions to people and to material items that later prove to be unappealing occur now. This is not a good time to start a new relationship nor for any significant financial undertaking. We may not see eye to eye with our loved ones, and we might be taken off guard by unexpected events. It’s wise to hold off on decision-making with regards to finances and relationships. However, if we can separate rebellion from a sincere need for change, we might open ourselves up to new ways of dealing with others. We might find ourselves particularly impatient with rules. You may experience a powerful and possibly frustrating conversation or communication with or about co-workers–watch for harsh words. Power plays may be part of the picture, and could involve career, reputation, and business matters.

September 18-19 Venus sextiles Jupiter. We are big-hearted and our feelings are expansive under this influence. This is a sociable, perhaps lazy and self-indulgent, time. We easily find meaning in our social connections. We are more open and trusting of friends and lovers. Integrity and loyalty are favored. This is a favorable influence for winning people’s trust, healthy speculation, advertising, publishing, finances, and travel. For you, this is an opportunity period for matters of the heart and attraction. It’s a strong period for travel and educational matters, friendships and group associations, and work and health. This is also a good time for asserting your personal influence. Past good deeds are rewarded now.

September 29-30 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

Sagittarius (Born December 13 to 21) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Sagittarius:

August 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

August

Overview. Until the 12th, the Sun continues to spotlight your intimacy sector. With the considerable energy of the Sun in your solar eighth house, much of your energy will be applied to deeply personal and transformative matters. The use of power is highlighted in some way during this cycle. Will-power, strategy, and financial ability are accentuated now. Something may be lost, so that something else is gained. This can be a time for getting down to business and of stripping away and discarding nonessentials. You can separate the wheat from the chaff, concentrating on important things. The Sun is energizing and spotlighting all that comes under the reign of the eighth house: transformation, change, sexuality, personal growth, regeneration, others’ money and resources, addictions, and taxes. As a result, this is not the most gregarious of months for you. You take a step back, focus on intimacy with a partner, or simply retreat a little from the hectic pace of life. This is an excellent time to create a budget or financial plan, or to rid yourself of bad habits that undermine your sense of personal power and self-mastery.

From the 12th, the Sun illuminates your adventure sector. Your focus turns outward, away from the more personal concerns that have occupied your thoughts in the last months. More than any other time during the year, you are feeling most adventurous and willing to take a leap of faith. This is a cycle in which you seek a higher meaning to your life, and/or seek out new experiences that take you beyond the here and now, and beyond the mundane details of day-to-day life. Anything that broadens your experiences attracts now. A lack of superficiality finds you straight to the point, interested in the truth of things. It would be wise for you to consider scheduling a vacation, adventure of sorts, or a course that expands your mind. These don’t have to happen now, but taking the time to recognize your needs for escaping the daily grind, taking a few risks, and feeding your spirit for self-expression through some form of adventure or higher learning will help you to feel good about yourself. The only caution with this cycle is that you could lose touch with everyday affairs and important details.

Mercury picks up speed after a period of retrogradation in July.

The second half of the month finds you especially adventurous and energetic. For the most part, things run smoothly, although you may have some convincing or explaining to do around the 9th. August is a strong month for you on a financial level. Opportunities to increase your income could come from travel or overseas, and good news arrives in the last week of August.

This month, Saturn opposes Neptune across your second and eighth house axis. This tricky opposition is activated by the Full Moon on the 9th, by Mercury on the 20-21, and by Venus on the 26-27. You experience a clash between reality and your ideals and dreams, particularly with regards to your personal finances and possessions, your joint or shared finances and resources, and intimacy matters. You may become very demanding and critical of others, particularly close partners (business or personal) and family members–or they are demanding of you. Painful memories may surface that need to be dealt with, and fears and insecurities may not be based on realistic expectations. Since you set your goals for success far out of reach these days, you are likely to “fail” (at least in your eyes) during this time. It is difficult for you to separate fact from fiction, and you may feel that you are going through a “reality shift.” Fears and anxieties may be overwhelming at times, but remember that things are certainly not as bad as they seem. There can be a feeling of being drained by the demands (or even the lack of demands) of others, or frustrated because someone wants something concrete and secure, and the other is not clear in terms of what they want. This feeling of being drained is experienced by all, but for you, personal finances and joint/shared resources are the likely arenas where this influence will play out. There may be confusing matters or delays with regards to the attainment of loans, refunds, child support, or other support. There may be a feeling of being alone in the world, compounded by the idea that practical matters, such as finances and budgeting, seem elusive or confusing. This can also be an important month as well for your domestic affairs, also coming under the rule of Saturn and Neptune. Burdens, responsibilities, separations, or the need to mature quickly are things you are dealing with now in these life departments. The best way to handle this is to develop a workable plan for tending to your needs for financial security. Maturation is in order, and if you can think in terms of “building” slowly but surely, you will feel more grounded and realistic.

Venus journeys through your intimacy sector from the 4-29. During this cycle, the areas of life where you are most likely to express your social, romantic, and artistic qualities are through harmonious sexual relationships, friendships, and business interests. You attract others like bees to honey now, and you favor a partner who is intelligent, with a somewhat mysterious flair about them. A financial boost is likely, or you may gain financially through your partner. Your social circle may include people who are interested in mysteries or those who are engaged in some form of psychological work. A deep personal connection and intimate exchange can be healing, replenishing, and soothing to your soul. This is a good time to work on resolving grievances, differences in values, or money problems in a close relationship. There are also apt to be favorable developments regarding shared assets, jointly owned property, borrowing money, or repaying loans to the satisfaction of all concerned. You are likely to get both the financial backing and the emotional support you need to succeed. On a more personal level, intimate relationships are intensified. Either you or your partner want a deeper union.

Chatty Mercury is in your intimacy sector until the 22nd, along with Venus. Your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to the growth and development of the mind. Much of your knowledge may be gained through intuitive means rather than the study of books at this time. There is an aptitude for business and other financial dealings. Your mental disposition is ideally suited to work of an investigative nature, research, psychotherapy, psychiatry, police
or detective work. Focus the light of understanding and honest communication on emotionally-charged topics such as sexuality and intimacy, feelings about the power dynamics in your partnerships, and money you share with significant others. You can have a more objective and fair view of such things now, and could clarify any long-standing issues related to any of this. On a practical level, it is the time to handle joint finances, material assets or property you hold in common with another, and matters pertaining to inheritances, taxes, or commercial interests.

Mercury is in your solar ninth house from the 22nd. You’re thinking about the “big picture” rather than the mundane circumstances and details of your life during this cycle. Your mental and communicative abilities will largely be applied to the expansion of the intellect through foreign travel, philosophy, higher education and other profound studies.

Mars energizes your adventure sector until the 23rd. You are likely to exert your energy and initiative through self-development, travel, exploration, sports, religion, philosophy or higher education, in order to gain a broad experience of life. You are very independent, enthusiastic, and curious during this cycle–and you could also be itching for some kind of adventure! Sometimes, this position points to troubles with the in-laws or intellectual arguments in general. You enjoy any form of intellectual challenge and should do well in gaining academic qualifications or succeeding at debates. During this cycle, you have a crusading spirit, as well as breadth of vision. Your instincts for promotion are also strong now.

Mars enters your career sector on the 23rd. During this period, you are likely to exert your energy and initiative by actively pursuing your career and more worldly ambitions. Courage, ambition, energy, enterprise, force, emotional involvement, business acumen, and a strong compulsive drive for success may lead to special achievements or professional recognition during this cycle. You like to see practical results for your efforts and take pride in doing a job correctly. You may become a force to be reckoned with in career and professional life. However, if you let your argumentative, impatient, or aggressive side come out to play, you may create difficulties on occasion. Patience, tolerance, and a less-hasty attitude to events should be cultivated. This transit stimulates your ambition and/or your desire to be recognized for your accomplishments. Whether it’s professional or personal, you are likely to have an increased desire for others to notice you. This can be a good time to become self-employed or start a business if other factors (and Mars itself) are favorable. Conflicts with those in authority are possible now. You may pour more energy into self-promotion or business/career activities.

The most rewarding period of the month overall is the second half, when the Sun, Mercury, and Venus support your own Sun. Your ideas are received well, and energy is easy to find–from within and without.

Highlights:

July 29-30 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

August 5-6 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

August 6-9 The Sun aligns with Saturn in Leo, and Mars forms a harmonious aspect with Jupiter. We become aware of increased responsibilities in our careers, love affairs, or family life. Perhaps we recognize the dangers of stress and overwork. We have a chance to become more mature, goal-oriented, and responsible. This can be a good time to begin a cycle in which we build a business, especially a creative one, or re-commit to a long-term project. Decisive action comes naturally now. We possess willpower, verve, and energy that we can direct toward achieving our goals. We want to branch out and take on more challenges. Positive yet realistic attitudes create winning situations now. A spirit of friendly competition prevails, as well as the desire to take beneficial action. For you, circumstances are such that you become acutely aware of a maturation process with regards to how you express yourself through a spirit of adventure, and how you expand your mind through travel or education. You are required to come up with something solid now in terms of your personal philosophies, and are accountable for how you conduct yourself on moral or philosophic levels. Your joint finances and intimacy issues may also require fine-tuning, and could come up for inspection. Issues surrounding your ability to provide for yourself, your personal finances, and your sense of self-worth and security may be part of the picture. Some advances can be made in your love affairs now. The way you present yourself to others enjoys a healthy injection of adventure and passion.

August 9 Full Moon in Aquarius in your solar second house. This Full Moon highlights a Saturn-Neptune opposition, bringing into our awareness a clash between our ideals and reality. Challenges in your personal finances, property, possessions, joint finances, and intimacy matters may come to light, and you may be feeling drained by the demands of these areas of life. Striking a balance is in order, but getting to that medium ground may be a bit of a struggle. Intimacy, issues of power and control, or joint finances may have been a focus for the last two weeks. Now it’s time to recognize what makes you comfortable. This Full Moon is about balancing the give and take of intimacy–the giving and receiving of pleasure. Sharing issues come into focus, as do issues of power–what’s yours and what’s mine. Your comfort zones matter, and now is the time to take care of your own needs without eclipsing the needs of others.

August 18-19 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

August 19-21 Mercury conjuncts Saturn, quincunxes Uranus, and opposes Neptune; Venus forms a tense aspect with Pluto. This is a time when you are inclined to sort out your thoughts and re-think your strategies. Do just that, and avoid speaking out prematurely. You are required to show your responsible side, even if you are feeling a bit disappointed, or even disillusioned, with your life just now. This is a time when you need to re-formulate life strategies. It’s probably wise not to believe everything you hear now, as some important information may be omitted. Partnerships and career matters require some extra attention. You may have the opportunity to cement a commitment, although some disillusionments may be part of the picture.

August 25-26 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

Sagittarius (Born December 13 to 21) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Sagittarius:

July 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

July

Overview. Until the 12th, the Sun illuminates your solar seventh house. At this time of year, you have a greater need than usual to be with a partner. You seem to need a partner or good friend with whom you can bounce ideas off. A partner is a catalyst for you to discover and develop your own self, and to realize your own potential. During this time, you focus on balancing your personal interests and objectives with what would be best for a significant other. The emphasis is on “us” rather than “me”. You need the energies, companionship, and support of other people, and they also are drawing upon you a great deal. It’s important to give others credit and recognition, and to attempt to harmonize and include others rather than to go solo for the time being.

From the 12th, the Sun highlights your solar eighth house, and all that is deeply personal comes into focus. Intimate matters become especially important to you during this cycle. Just how well you are handling your life comes up for inspection. Your self-mastery skills and psychological predisposition matter to you more than usual. This is the time of year when you are most desirous of change on a deep level. Clearing out psychic “junk” or ridding yourself of bad habits may be part of the picture now. You are more willing than usual to explore life’s secrets. This cycle brings greater in-depth understanding and an inclination to delve beneath the surface of matters to get to the bottom of them. Research uncovers new material that allows you to develop a better overall picture of the year’s events. This is an especially introspective cycle during which you have the chance to truly uncover your personal strengths and talents. On a more mundane level, you may be dealing with joint finances and shared resources now.

Jupiter goes direct on the 6th. This is great news for you because Jupiter, the great Benefic, is your ruler. This suggests that matters pertaining to friendships, group associations, long-term goals, and personal confidence are beginning to show signs of moving forward after a period of stagnation. The first signs of resolution for these issues will be with you this month. You are likely to project more confidence through a happier, friendlier, more outgoing and spontaneous demeanor.

Love affairs and partnerships, such as marriage, could see some conflicts from the 4-6. Misunderstandings are likely now. However, an excellent period for attracting or augmenting love affairs occurs on the 13-16. Your lover is feeling especially adventurous this month, and you are sure to enjoy this side of him or her. Close personal relationships, including marriage or other committed partnerships, may require some serious smoothing over this month. Misunderstandings are possible, and a partner could be returning to a previous position or stance for the time being. Fortunately, Venus in your seventh house helps you to smooth a partner’s ruffled feathers quite effectively.

Venus journeys through your work and health sector until the 10th. This is a good time to promote harmony and good will on the job. Some laziness is possible now, as you tend to associate pleasure with work. Perhaps you are socializing more than usual on the job. You have good team spirit right now, and you are more tactful and obliging with your co-workers. Some people obtain a pet during this cycle. Love affairs may occur on the job, or at least attractions. Still, you are less inclined to fall in love for the sake of love itself during this cycle. Your tendency is to consider whether it is clever to do so. You’re most successful doing tasks that involve cooperation and team harmony, and/or the personal, human side of things. A pleasant break from routine, even a short vacation, would be appropriate now.

Venus moves through your partnership sector from the 10th. Special attention to and from a partner is in focus, and flattery will get you everywhere if you use it wisely. Set aside some private time when no one else can get in the way of the feelings you want to share. Give to a partner exactly what you would like to receive just now. It’s not about you right now–it’s about someone else close, and the sweeter your attentions, the more delicious your rewards will be! Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle. You have a greater need than usual for contact and exchange with an intimate partner. If single, you are more willing than normal to enter into a committed relationships. In general, you are adaptable when it comes to your affections, and others are more receptive to your friendly overtures.

Mars enlivens your adventure and higher mind sector from the 6th. You have the courage and determination to act on your convictions. It’s a fabulous time for promoting your ideas and beliefs, although coming on too strong could work against you. If you can’t travel, you’ll feel like doing so, or at least travel in your mind, simply because you have a great urge to expand your horizons in some manner. Energies thrown toward recreation, travel, or just cooking up great new ideas are well spent and serve to refresh and renew your vitality. Creative projects can flourish with enlarged focus and redoubled efforts that somehow don’t tire you out. Time flies when you’re having fun and leaves you with more vigor than when you began. Big, ambitious, adventurous ideas can come to you in a rush during this cycle, propelled by the urge to do something you’ve never done before.

The most rewarding period of the month is likely to be from the 6-22, when Mars harmonizes with your Sun and Jupiter is moving forward after a period of retrograde. This is a time when your vital energy is flowing well. You are feeling especially vital and dynamic, and solving problems empowers you now. You feel pleasantly ambitious and effective, and you can rally others to action because of your own enthusiasm and can-do attitude.

Highlights:

June 25 New Moon in Cancer in your solar seventh house affects you until the next New Moon. Negotiations and diplomacy are highlighted during this period, as it is a favorable time to begin new relationships or to re-define existing ones. Issues of sharing and partnership come to the fore. Increased awareness of the need for someone significant to lean on or to rely on is often associated with this position. Working on, or resolving to work on, relationships that are mutually supportive is a good idea at this time. If you find yourself sensitive to the feeling of lacking support from partners, this may be a good time to ask yourself how companionable you are, and work on developing yourself in this area of life. You might just find that this is a period when you are at your most gracious. It is also a good time to make contacts and to make something public.

July 2-3 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

July 3-5 Mercury is stationary retrograde now, and will remain retrograde until the 28th–a cycle when rethinking things is the name of the game. When Mercury is stationary,

July 9-10 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

July 11-12 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

July 17-18 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

July 27-29 Mercury is stationary direct. When Mercury is stationary,

Sagittarius (Born December 13 to 21) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Sagittarius:

June 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

June

Overview. Until the 11th, the Sun illuminates your work and health sector, placing emphasis on these life “departments”. You take pride in your work and in your daily routines, making this an excellent period for getting organized. It’s also a good time for upgrading efficiency and your skills. You may be recognized for your excellent work, but mainly you want the satisfaction of a job well done. You may also be called upon to attend to details of daily life.

The Sun highlights your solar seventh house from the 11th, and your one-to-one relationships come into focus. It’s a great time to balance your personal interests with what would be best for a significant other. The emphasis is on “us” rather than “me” now. You need the energies, companionship, and support of other people, and they also are drawing upon you a great deal. The need to compromise and share, and your desire to balance your life, are strong now. During this period, going solo is not instinctive. The best way to make use of this period is to acknowledge these needs rather than to push ahead on your own.

A year-long trend involves your outlook on life, which is moving towards becoming more spiritualized. You find your needs for meditation and “down time” increasing, and your outlook is very much influenced by what is going on subconsciously. Your dreaming world is also especially active. Spiritual philosophies that go beyond traditional orthodox viewpoints can bring revealing insights into your life. Something about your personality reflects your desire to help other people and they can easily recognize this. This month, your first and twelfth house rulers form a semi-square, and you may experience some moments of self-doubt that seems to come from deep within. You are searching for a greater meaning to your life. Your ruler, Jupiter, also squares Saturn through most of the second half of the month. You become acutely aware of the tension between what you want to do versus what you actually have time for and can reasonably accomplish. You may be tempted to overextend yourself, but this transit teaches you that you are happier with less rather than more.

Your emotions are on your sleeve around the time of the Full Moon on the 11th, as it occurs directly on your Sun/Ascendant. You could make a surprising proclamation as emotions burst forth seemingly out of nowhere. However, whatever comes out now has been brewing beneath the surface.

Until the 15th, Venus moves through your romance and pleasure sector, continuing to emphasize recreation and pleasant relations with romantic partners, as well as the power to attract romance. Spontaneity is emphasized, making this a happy, creative period. Creative endeavors, games, and entertainment are especially pleasing during this cycle. This is a strong period for romantic attraction and personal magnetism. Venus enters your solar sixth on the 15th, and you should have plenty of opportunities to socialize on the job, or at least to create and enjoy a more harmonious working environment. An office romance or flirtation, or playing matchmaker at work, may be part of the picture. You’re most successful doing tasks that involve cooperation and team harmony.

Uranus’ retrograde this month suggests that you are concerned about your own sincerity when it comes to the style in which you communicate. Formalities and small talk don’t satisfy right now, and people around you may find you a little hard to reach or to understand this month as a result. Finances could demand some attention around the 16-19, when an investment or speculation may pay off. Challenging days for finances occur on the 4-5, when over-spending has its consequences, the 13-15, when travel plans don’t seem to be within budget, and the 21-23, when you should avoid making important purchases, as your judgment is impaired. The 9th is an excellent day for finances, however, when increases can come through partnerships and career/business income. As well, June 30 to July 1 is an excellent period for increasing your income, and when you might be thinking about investing your money in travel and recreational pursuits.

Work is especially service-oriented from the 15th, when you may not get a whole lot of recognition but you could derive satisfaction from being helpful. Your work may also emphasize one-to-one associations or counseling, and research could figure in the second half of the month. Tensions on the job could arise on the 4-7, when work seems restrictive and full of pressure, and the 14-15, when family affairs and the demands of work are in conflict. As well, the 14-15 could be challenging due to miscommunications. The 21-28 is an especially productive period for you. The 10-11 and June 30-July 1st bring rewards on the job.

Love affairs may be especially romantic and dramatic this month with Mars, the ruler of your romance and pleasure sector, entering Leo. A lover may be especially intense this month. Emotional depth and intimacy are on his or her agenda. Creativity is also strong during this cycle. Getting serious about love is possible on the 16-19, when making a commitment isn’t out of the question. With the ruler of your partnership sector in the solar 8th from the 16th, there could be an intense sexual attraction, or a partner may be especially in need of more intimacy and personalized attention. A strong period for attracting love occurs on the 16-19. The 1-3 may also be quite active on a romantic level, although likely quite tumultuous as well. Tensions with romantic partners could arise on the 6-11 and 20-21.

The planet of action, Mars, moves through your intimacy sector all month. Sexuality and intimacy are stimulated under this transit. Negative expression of this energy is the tendency towards ego conflicts concerning jointly held property or money. Conflicts with partners over values or possessions are possible. Occasionally, this transit could bring a crisis or ending of some kind. Something you hear about now might disturb or touch you deeply. You are likely to be more strategic in your actions during this period, as you become aware of the subtleties of human interaction. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support.

Until the 16th, the planet of communication moves through your partnership sector, and the drive for mutual understanding in your partnerships is strong. You are more willing to listen to others’ points of view now, and you are more diplomatic than usual. You tend to seek out ideas and counsel to balance and fill out your own understanding. However you could get caught in a verbal tennis match, playing tit for tat, and thus leave your heart and feelings out of the discussion. If you avoid playing mental games and focus instead on clear, honest communication, you’ll get the most from your interactions. Mercury enters your solar eighth house on the 16th, and you are inclined to do some serious “digging”, analyzing, and researching. You are looking for honest, intimate answers to emotionally-charged questions. It’s a good time to discuss power dynamics in your partnerships, as well as shared resources and finances, simply because you are more able to be objective about these matters.

This is not the best of months for presenting your ideas and feeling supported by others on energy levels. For the most part, the ball is in another court this month, and the best way to work with this energy is to recognize your need for others, listen well, and wait until the ball returns.

Highlights:

May 27 New Moon in Gemini in your solar sixth house affects you for approximately 4 weeks (until the next New Moon). The New Moon in the sixth house heralds a time when new diet regimes, healthy routines, and satisfying work schedules can be successfully initiated. It is a time of taking care of business, handling details, and increasing your efficiency by re-organizing or simply by working enthusiastically at tasks that help you get caught up in your work. It is also a good time for analysis of any sort, as critical thinking is now at its peak. This period is marked by a desire to sort things out, but also to be useful.

June 4-5 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

June 11 Full Moon in Sagittarius in your solar first house. This Full Moon involves Pluto and is supported by Neptune, intensifying issues illuminated by the Full Moon, but with the potential for acceptance and clearer understanding–even spiritual enlightenment. Because it occurs on your Sun, you are likely to burst forth with some kind of proclamation or emotional declaration about something that has been brewing under the surface for some time. You might surprise others–and yourself! “Hey, what about me?” is the feeling of a Full Moon in the first house. You’re looking for a bit of attention right now as you feel that life has been too “other-oriented” recently. Try to avoid infantile outbursts. Instead, work on your self-assertiveness. You do count, and there are ways to assert your own needs without stepping on others’ toes. Finding a balance between autonomy and dependence is what this Full Moon is about for you. Your emotions are on your sleeve right now. It is a good time to put your needs first, but doing so with respect for others will take you further. Whether you can succeed as a leader is “tested” right now.

June 14-15 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

June 20-21 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

June 20-24 Your ruler, Jupiter, squares Saturn, and you could be feeling limited or thwarted. Your vitality may be low. This is not a good time for new financial initiatives.

Sagittarius (Born December 13 to 21) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Sagittarius:

May 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

May

Overview. The Sun illuminates your romance and pleasure sector until the 10th, and spontaneous self-expression is easy. You want to have a little fun, and your creative impulses are especially strong. Find outlets for expressing your unique, playful personality during this period, as this is the ideal time to do so. You take great pride in what you do and what you create now. You are also more inclined to take small risks. Emotional inspiration can be found now.

The Sun shines its significant light on your work and health sector from the 10th onward. Work, daily tasks and routines, and health regimens are in focus during this period. You are determined to improve your skills, health, and efficiency. It’s a great time to get organized. Little details demand your attention. It’s not the most outgoing time in your year, but it can be a good period for taking care of the details of daily existence and uncluttering your mind in the process!

Venus is in your home and family sector until the 20th, and your domestic life can be a source of great pleasure, comfort, and enjoyment now. It’s a great time for beautifying the home through redecorating, landscaping, and the like. Intimate and comfortable
gatherings with family and close friends are favored. You could also find some time to do work from home, and you will be especially willing to bring your friends home. If you can organize a group meeting at your home, this is a great time to do so. Any new romance started during this period is bound to be especially comfortable and cozy. Sharing your deepest feelings is easy. The goddess of love enters your romantic fifth house from the 20th–a playful, spontaneous, and loving period. You are more able to express affection and creativity during this transit. Your personal style comes over especially well now, and your romantic energies are stimulated. Any new romance begun under this influence is bound to have a romantic, playful, and spontaneous energy to it. Casual relationships can take on a more intimate tone during this period with Mars, the ruler of your fifth house, in your intimacy sector from the 18th. Taking things to a whole new level is probable.

Your mind is on fun and pleasure until the 15th. You are filled with especially creative ideas, and you could put this energy to work with writing, composing, and other such creative endeavors. Intellectual diversions attract. As well, you could bring more creativity into your career during this cycle. Mercury travels through your work and health sector from the 15-29, and your mind turns to more mundane affairs–day-to-day details and organization that are essential to your sense of well-being. You can successfully find ways to be more efficient during this period, particularly with the Sun in the same house from the 10th. This is also an especially favorable period for getting organized on the job, although it is unlikely to be a time of great recognition.

Your partner may be especially romantic and fun-loving this month, encouraging you away from the office and out and about. From the 20th onward is an outstanding period for attracting love and intimacy. A good period for attracting love occurs on the 4-8. Tensions in romantic relations can occur on the 16-17, when there could be a bit of a communication breakdown, and some challenges with lovers could crop up on the 22-24, when a lover is looking for more intimacy while you seem to be just having a good time! Some power politics in your intimate relationships are likely to pop up. Try to read between the lines and sensitize yourself to his or her point of view.

Mars moves through your relationship sector until the 18th, and partnerships may suffer from ego conflicts, or adversaries may be challenging. Use this energy to work cooperatively on relationship problems. You may even find that you seem to need someone’s help in order to do what you want to do during this cycle. Mars moves through your intimacy sector from the 18th. The overlap of Venus in the fifth and Mars in the eighth suggests an intensely romantic, sexual, and intimate second half of the month. If you’re single, this is a great time to meet someone. Sexuality and intimacy are stimulated under this transit. Negative expression of this energy is the tendency towards ego conflicts concerning jointly held property or money. Conflicts with partners over values or possessions are possible. Occasionally, this transit could bring a crisis or ending of some kind. Something you hear about now might disturb or touch you deeply. You are likely to be more strategic in your actions during this period, as you become aware of the subtleties of human interaction. This is a time when your best course of action is to recognize that you need, or rely on, others for support.

An especially favorable period of the month is the 20-31, when Venus trines your Sun and your personal style is very much appreciated. It’s easy to spontaneously express your charm and playfulness. The first week of the month is also very favorable for clear insights, communication, and coming across well. People are listening and enjoying what you have to say.

Highlights:

April 27 New Moon in Taurus in your solar fifth house affects you until the next New Moon. Creative self-expression comes under the realm of the fifth house, and a New Moon occurring here sparks the creative juices. Romantic inclinations are also highlighted, as are any kind of celebratory, playful, and just-for-fun endeavors. You will be especially aware of your need for approval and feedback from others, deriving pleasure from the ways your own creativity impact the world around you. This can be a passionate time for you, and a time when you might feel more bold than usual. If you are feeling good about yourself, and especially if you have taken advantage of the time for re-building of confidence that the New Moon in the fourth house brought, you will fairly radiate during this expressive period.

May 4-9 Some exciting cosmic energy is with us now, with a grand trine involving action-oriented Mars, lucky Jupiter (your ruler), and inventive Uranus. This is a time of “lucky breaks”, although we need to capitalize on opportunities in order to benefit from them. Our intuition is good, we have a feel for new things and ideas, and we can benefit from timely action. Begin a creative activity (or enjoy the fruits of a successful one), and listen to your intuition. As long as we aren’t foolhardy, this is a good time for speculation, self-promotion, and recognition. This grand trine affects your social houses, and personal relationships could benefit from renewed focus, commitment, and vitality. It’s an excellent time for revitalizing ties with friends and close partners. It’s also an excellent time for communications of all kinds, pleasure, and romance. With your ruler involved, you could experience sudden surges of energy and bursts of creativity that can lead to exceptional accomplishments. You know what you want and are willing to take the necessary risks to accomplish your goals. You are able to break free of obstacles and limiting circumstances that have been hampering your personal liberation.

May 8-9 Monthly career and reputation peak. Your credibility is important at this time of the lunar month, and efforts at self-promotion might be made now. This is the time when you’re noticed for what you’ve done or haven’t done. Do your best to be in top form, make career adjustments if needed, and don’t be afraid to show others exactly what you’re made of. You’re at your best when you are showing the world your practical, competent, and responsible side.

May 11-12 Venus sextiles Chiron; Mercury sextiles Uranus and opposes your ruler, Jupiter. This is an excellent period for romantic and intimate relationships. Good news or illuminating conversations offer hope and ease your mind. Healing energy is with you now–you have the chance to make amends or to offer support. A confrontation with a friend or lover may be frustrating at first, but can lead to new insights.

May 15-16 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

May 17-18 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are possible.

You could too easily have a face-off with a co-worker or lover.

May 24-25 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

May 28-29 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive.

April 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

April

Overview. A solar eclipse at the end of March fell in your solar fourth house, and its effects reverberate throughout April (and beyond). The sequence of eclipses in Aries and Libra in the past while have alerted you to the fine balance between your public and private lives, as well as attention to career and to family. The fourth house rules our instinctual needs, the domestic scene, our needs for security, and our focus on family and home life as well as relationships with family. The tenth house rules our needs for status, our career and reputation, our worldly ambitions, and our drive for success. Striking a balance between these issues is the focus of this sequence of eclipses. It’s time to improve your family and home life. March’s eclipse is the final cosmic push for you to take charge of your private life. In the months ahead, your family and home are bound to capture much of your attention.

Venus journeys through your communications sector this month, and your sense of humor and charm are strong. You may enjoy more opportunities than usual to socialize (especially in your immediate environment and neighborhood) as well as to improve relations with friends. Any new relationships started now are bound to be based on mental rapport. Existing relationships take on a more chatty, lighthearted, and communicative tone.

Mars enters your partnership sector this month. Under this influence, partnerships may suffer from ego conflicts, or adversaries may be challenging. Use this energy to work cooperatively on relationship problems. You may even find that you seem to need someone’s help in order to do what you want to do during this cycle. Be cautious around the 6th-9th, when Mars opposes Pluto. You could encounter some opposition, most likely coming from a partner or adversary. Your need to express yourself more forcefully could be at the root of the conflict.

Saturn in Leo turning direct this month is good news for you. While Saturn was retrograde for the last 4-1/2 months, you may have felt somewhat blocked, especially with regards to financial matters–joint finances, your money-making ability, and your personal income were affected (Saturn rules your money sector). These matters are not going to be moving forward quickly just yet, but you will begin to feel more on top of things now. It’s a good time to move forward with plans to structure your life. Take this time to structure your personal finances. A great place to start is with a personal budget.

Highlights:

March 29 New Moon in Aries (Total Solar Eclipse) in your solar fourth house. This energy is with you until the next New Moon, and beyond (its effects can extend up to 6 months). Home and family may be a focus during this phase. On a personal, developmental level, this is a time to not only listen to what is in your gut, but to pay homage to those feelings! What makes you feel safe and secure? This is the time to explore and develop a sense of inner security. Although the fourth house is associated with the home, it is an angular, cardinal house that stirs up activity. This is a time of re-organization and heightened awareness of your roots, issues of intimacy and vulnerability, and it’s an excellent time to come in touch with your feelings and needs. Focusing on your support system and the manner in which you support others is also probable. This is a good time to make long-range plans for the future, to do any type of re-organizing or even re-modeling of the home or home environment, and for family-related activities.

April 2-4 Some exciting cosmic energy is with us now. Venus is parallel Chiron and sextile Pluto, and Mercury re-visits its trine to Jupiter (your ruler). This is an excellent period for financial undertakings, love, and overall good humor. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to make a purchase, here it is. With Pluto on your Sun and Venus in sextile to both, this is an especially magnetic influence for you. You could receive a bonus or gift now, and good news could boost your confidence multi-fold. Your reasoning skills are above par. Love relationships and partnerships could also receive a boost, and your powers of attraction are high.

April 3-4 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and it’s time to compromise. Insecurities in your partnerships are brought to light now, and the best way to handle this is to understand that you need others instead of competing for the floor. Some people find this time of the lunar month an energy sapper, as they feel ignored or unnoticed. Trying to go it alone won’t work just now. The spotlight is on other people for the time being, and it’s best to let them shine. Concentrate on truly listening to those close to you, and on playing a supportive role. Perhaps not a time to be make a presentation or to come on strong to the world. You are feeling reflective rather than expressive. With the concurrent influence described directly above, the more positive expression of this period is likely. You are at your most graciousnaturally!

April 13 Full Moon in Libra in your solar eleventh house. This Full Moon is supported by both Neptune and Pluto, offering us creative revelations and solutions to issues illuminated by the Full Moon. You’ve been focusing on what brings you pleasureyour hobbies, romantic activities, and so forth. Now you realize that the role you play in others’ lives (as a spouse, parent, friend) is an important element in your overall happiness. You’re looking for validation from friends and group activities now.

April 16-18 Venus conjuncts Uranus in Pisces, the Sun trines Pluto, and Mercury squares Mars. This is a high-energy, potentially productive period if we can avoid being too impulsive. There can be great excitement in love nowa feeling of re-birth, in fact. We could have the gumption to take a chance and speculate on a love that is intense and unpredictable, and we are more decisive than usual. For you, new beginnings in the romance department could feature. A fresh new friendship is possible, and it could be formed close to home or through communications (online, phone, etc.). A surprising yet illuminating conversation could lift your spirits.

April 18-19 Your Personal New Moon. A new personal cycle begins for you, and you feel fresh and re-energized. It’s all about you now, so it’s time to put your best foot forward. A blast of personal energy comes your way, and showing your leadership skills works for you now. You are at your most convincing, as others are accepting you at face value. Some people find that the Moon in their sign brings with it a restless, discontented, and emotional state, and that there is more on their plate than they expected or wanted. If this is the case for you, remember that these feelings are there because you need to make a change, however big or small. Use it to stimulate activity and positive change.

April 20-21 Monthly money and income peak. You’re looking at the world in terms of value and worth now, and what you have (or don’t have) is on your mind. Money issues pop up nowthe discovery of a way to increase your income, an unexpected gift or reward, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money are all possible.

April 27 New Moon in Taurus in your solar fifth house affects you until the next New Moon. Creative self-expression comes under the realm of the fifth house, and a New Moon occurring here sparks the creative juices. Romantic inclinations are also highlighted, as are any kind of celebratory, playful, and just-for-fun endeavors. You will be especially aware of your need for approval and feedback from others, deriving pleasure from the ways your own creativity impact the world around you. This can be a passionate time for you, and a time when you might feel more bold than usual. If you are feeling good about yourself, and especially if you have taken advantage of the time for re-building of confidence that last month’s New Moon in the fourth house brought, you will fairly radiate during this expressive period.

Sagittarius (Born December 13 to 21) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Sagittarius:

March 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

March

Overview. Jupiter, your ruler, continues to square Neptune for the first four weeks of March, suggesting that you may continue to have a hard time defining yourself and your path in life. Speculation is likely to have disastrous results just now–avoid get-rich-quick-schemes! Others might find you are too abstract and distant from the down-to-earth details of daily living. You can be generous without being discriminating, which can result in wastefulness, and you should be careful when investing or taking risks to make sure you have thoroughly analyzed the situation before committing yourself to it. Your dreaminess can be channeled successfully into creative outlets, however. Because your ruler is in the sensual sign of Scorpio, opportunities for sexual expression are strong. The Lunar Eclipse mid-month squares your Sun (or Ascendant), and career issues may come to a head. Avoid flying off the handle. If things are bothering you, perhaps it’s time to make improvements, but do avoid emotional displays. Venus journeys through your solar second house this month, and you’re in the mood to shop! It’s a good time to enhance the attractiveness of your nest (and you!). Note, however, that Mercury is retrograde from the 2nd to the 25th, and it is advised to put off decision-making with regards to home improvement, moving, and family matters for the time being. Because Mercury retrograde in Pisces affects the angles of your chart, you may be especially sensitive to all Mercury Retrograde issues–take care with paperwork and back up your computer. Mars moving through your sector of work, routines, and health makes it a good time to pour your energy into establishing a healthy routine–or simply to organize your life a little. Conflicts on the job or with co-workers are also possible, particularly on March 23-24. The competitiveness you feel, however, can be channeled constructively–you can pour your energy and enthusiasm into getting your work done.

Highlights:

February 27 New Moon in Pisces in your solar third house affects you until the next New Moon. The third house rules our communication skills, learning, methods, daily interactions and contact, and general “busy-ness”. This is a favorable time for learning something new, feeling at ease in social situations, taking care of the details of daily life, and developing a mental rapport with others. It is a time when you will be more aware of your environment, and when you experience increased alertness. It’s normally a good time to take tests, fill out forms, start a new course, write letters, make phone calls, and take care of daily tasks with energy. However, while Mercury is retrograde from March 2nd to 25th, it is not the case!

March 2-3 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! The flowing, expressive, and spontaneous energy surrounding you attracts like-minded (and hearted) people. Be sure to take time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others! Keywords: romance, creativity, spontaneity, pleasure, self-expression.

March 7-8 Your partnerships are highlighted right now, and you may need to compromise. This is the time during the lunar month that is closest to the “pits.” Most likely time to catch cold, get overlooked, find yourself ignored. Energy may be low and efforts are more ineffectual than usualeither push twice as hard or take the day off and wait for improvement. The spotlight is on others close to you, so be willing to play a supporting role and pass the ball on to someone elseit will come back soon enough.

March 14-15 Your ruler, Jupiter, trines the planet of communication, Mercury. You’re bound to get some great feedback from others right now. It’s an excellent time for you to solve a few problems, particularly with regards to partnerships and career issues. The new perspective you gained February 19-20 is coming back to you now, and you are re-visiting important issues in your life. Good news comes easily and your ideas and concepts are received well by others and can even become a point of reference or quoted by others in the future. Because this occurs at the time of your monthly career and reputation peak, good news may come with regards to your work.

March 24-25 Monthly money and income peak. This lunar finance peak brings a flurry of monetary activity, perhaps a quick find, the discovery of a way to increase your income, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money.

March 29 New Moon in Aries (Total Solar Eclipse) in your solar fourth house affects you until the next New Moon (and beyond, because it’s an eclipsea more potent New Moon). Home and family may be a focus during this phase. On a personal, developmental level, this is a time to not only listen to what is in your gut, but to pay homage to those feelings! What makes you feel safe and secure? This is the time to explore and develop a sense of inner security. Although the fourth house is associated with the home, it is an angular, cardinal house that stirs up activity. This is a time of re-organization and heightened awareness of your roots, issues of intimacy and vulnerability, and it’s an excellent time to come in touch with your feelings and needs. Focusing on your support system and the manner in which you support others is also probable. This is a good time to make long-range plans for the future, to do any type of re-organizing or even re-modeling of the home or home environment, and for family-related activities.

March 30-31 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! Like-minded (and hearted) people gravitate toward you. Make use of this smooth energy by taking the time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others!

February 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

February

Overview: Financial and work pressures, as well as strains in friendships, ease this month considerably. Venus changing direction early February means that relationships with friends and co-workers (which may have reached a crisis level recently) begin to improve, perhaps dramatically. You can put the past behind you now, and it feels good to do so! This month is a very busy one. You’re taking care of business, attending to many details, and perhaps repairing communication breakdowns that have recently occurred. Your ruler, Jupiter, is square Neptune all month, suggesting that you may have a hard time defining yourself and your path in life. Speculation is likely to have disastrous results just now–avoid get-rich-quick-schemes! Others might find you are too abstract and too distant from the down-to-earth details of daily living. You can be generous without being discriminating, which can result in wastefulness, and you should be careful when investing or taking risks to make sure you have thoroughly analyzed the situation before committing yourself to it. Although personal finances should be improved, it’s simply not the best time to go out on a limb. Status quo is best in this area. You bring more energy and enthusiasm to your work and daily routines this month. It’s an excellent time to start an exercise and/or diet regime. Mid-month, Venus enters your income sector, and you focus on buying things that enhance your feelings of security and permanence.

Highlights:

January 29 New Moon in Aquarius is in your solar second house. Heightened sensitivity to the world of the five senses, to your physical environment, and to the security you gain from the solid ground you have built for yourself is in order for this period of time. Attunement to, and appreciation of, the physical world of the senses is the focus, and this is a time to start fresh in terms of how you arrange your life in order to feel a sense of value and worthiness. Financial issues come into focus. Setting realistic financial goals, as well as formulating such things as budgets and other sensible financial planning projects, will be favored during this time. Discovering ways to increase your income is featured. It is also a wonderful time for taking moments to pleasure yourself through earthy, tactile, and comforting endeavors.

February 15-16 Monthly career and reputation peak. You are more accountable for what you do and how you do it right now. You are noticed for your accomplishments (or for what you haven’t done).

Sagittarius (Born December 13 to 21) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Sagittarius:

January 2006: Sagittarius Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

January

You are more outgoing this month, perhaps itching for a change of scene, change of image, or a new project to sink your teeth into. Your ruling planet, Jupiter, aligns with both Neptune and Pluto in declination most of the month, endowing you with a real sense of purpose and mission. This is an independent cycle of the year. Although more confident than you were last month, your focus is less on your relationships with others than it is on what you want from your life, although sexual activity and creative output are likely to be strong. By mid-month, your attention shifts to your personal finances and income as well as intimacy issues. Some small change in your financial status is probable. Venus is moving backwards in your solar second house, and this means that it’s not a good time to forge ahead with financial plans. Wait until after February 3rd for that. Instead, you have the opportunity to research, formulate a budget, work on debts already accumulated, and uncover new ways to make money from resources you already have. The retrograde cycle of Venus affects more than just your personal finances, as it is tied to your sectors of friendships and work. If co-workers and friends seem to be emotionally distant, try not to let it get you down. Give them space, and you’ll find that everything returns to normal after February 3rd when Venus moves forward again.

Highlights:

December 31-January 1 New Moon in Capricorn sets a theme for the month ahead. Make a resolution concerning commitment to your career goals on December 31st to January 1st. Think of ways to add more structure and organization to your life. This New Moon occurs in your solar first house. This New Moon placement is a powerful oneit’s a time to reinvent yourself in some personal way, such as with a new look or manner of expressing and presenting yourself. This is a personally busy time of year, when you feel energetic and enthusiastic. Think about how you present yourself to others, focus on changing personal habits in such a way as to improve your confidence in yourself, and concentrate on putting your best foot forward, as this is a time when you will get noticed and make a personal impression on others. However, factor in the importance of authenticity in your presentation of yourself. You do not have to, of course, reveal all of yourself to others, but the sign of Aries associated with the first house reminds us of the importance of acting on our impulses and believing in ourselves. This is a time when you can be brave and enjoy new experiences.

January 3-4 Your ruler, Jupiter, forms a pleasing sextile to the Sun and a tense aspect to Mercury. You have an added boost of confidence just now, and people are listening to you. However, be cautious that you don’t exaggerate or overstate. Information overload may get the best of you. Keep it simple.

January 7-8 Romance and pleasure are highlights right now with the Moon in your solar fifth. The Moon is in your element, and so are you! Like-minded (and hearted) people gravitate toward you. Make use of this smooth energy by taking the time to enjoy yourself, preferably around others!

Your timing should be perfect, and those around you should find you most spontaneous and alive.

January 28-29 Monthly money and income peak. This lunar finance peak brings a flurry of monetary activity, perhaps a quick find, the discovery of a way to increase your income, or a brief and tiny financial crisis that motivates you to find new ways to make money.

January 29 New Moon in Aquarius in your second house. Heightened sensitivity to the world of the five senses, to your physical environment, and to the security you gain from the solid ground you have built for yourself is in order for this period of time.

Financial issues come into focus. Setting realistic financial goals, as well as formulating such things as budgets and other sensible financial planning projects, will be favored during this time.
