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.

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 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.

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 you’d 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. You’re 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 seventh house 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 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.

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 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,

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 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 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 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 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.

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 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 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.

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 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 others–what makes them tick–as 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 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 27-29 Mercury is stationary direct. When Mercury is stationary,

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.

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.

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 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 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. 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 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.

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 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.

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 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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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 relationship sectors, and advances can also be made with friends and groups, and any matter that requires drawing upon your communication, negotiation, and compromising abilities.

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 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 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 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 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 time–otherwise, 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 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.

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 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 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.

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 22-24 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 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 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 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.

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

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.

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. Applying reason and logic to problems, as long as it is done warmly, will do wonders now.

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 gracious–naturally!

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 will–it’s hard to win just now. Trying to get the upper hand is fruitless today.

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 pleasure7mdash;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 16-18 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 now–a 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.

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 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 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 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. Avoid any form of speculation.

April 26-27 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.

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 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 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 usual–either 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 else–it 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 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 your values and finances.

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 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 stage–perform! Your timing should be perfect, and those around you should find you most spontaneous and alive.

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 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 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, opportunities for love may be found on the job.

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 eclipse–a 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!

Sagittarius (Born December 13 to 21) and Sagittarius Ascendant from 20 to 30 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. 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 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! 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 8-92Your 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 usual–either 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 else–it 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 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 sibling, neighbor, acquaintance, or message. Listen to your intuition!

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). 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 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 22-23 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 stage–perform! Your timing should be perfect, and those around you should find you most spontaneous and alive.

February 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.

February 27 New Moon in Pisces 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.

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 one–it’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!

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 11-12 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 usual–either 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 else–it will come back soon enough. Concentrate on communication with a special partner.

January 13 You may make an important new contact or receive an invitation today.

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 19-20 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 first and fifth solar houses. An opportunity to enhance your relationships, a new love interest, or a creative solution to relationship problems may appear. Use your considerable powers of attraction today!

January 26-27 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 stage–perform! 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. 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.
