***** INTRODUCTION *****

The Solar Return is a chart calculated for the time that the Sun arrives at the exact position of the Sun in your natal chart. That happens once every year around your birthday, but at a different time each year. This chart is calculated for the time of the Sun’s return this year and marks the principal events for the year from birthday to birthday. This report also gives the location of your Solar Return. From this, it can be determined that some places are more favorable than others. With the aid of more than one report you could analyze the changes that are produced in the Solar Return Reports, choosing from different locations where you would want to spend the day.

This report essentially is divided into two parts. The first part analyzes the general external conditions of the year: opportunities and problems that could occur in different areas. For the benefit of students of astrology, the influence of the Ascendant and Midheaven of the return are described as well as that of the Sun and Moon.

The second part analyzes the twelve astrological houses, marking specifically in what area of your life the various astral influences will be manifested, emphasizing your probable responses and inner changes. This section analyzes the position of the solar houses on the natal houses, the planetary conjunctions, and the location of the planets in the houses. You will be given a description of the most important matters derived from the placement of the planets in the houses, which are outlined in the text for each of them.

In some cases you will find contradictions. A planet may be beneficial in a certain area, while others may indicate the opposite situation. This means that you could have two types of possible situations during the year. For example: a lover’s quarrel and a following reconciliation. To get the most out of this report, it will be necessary to use your own logic and intuition, fitting the descriptions outlined here to your own particular case.

The objective of this report is to offer you a practical guide that helps you to analyze this year’s prospects and to learn from them using your free will.

***** FIRST PART *****

Chapter 1:
General characteristics of the year. The external conditions.

Solar Return Ascendant Sagittarius :

This is a period of expansion, personal growth and general good luck. You will feel a desire to expand your sphere of interest beyond that with which you are familiar. Your idealism will also increase, and you will have a strong interest in the fields of religion, philosophy, law, metaphysics, and in advanced science. You will draw people to you who are positive and helpful.

Your desire for independence will be strong, along with a desire to travel and become acquainted with distant lands. If you have been thinking about taking a vacation, this is a good year to do it. You will carry out your plans with great enthusiasm. And this year you think big! Nothing less will do.

You may feel discontented and restless with your normal, daily routine. There will be a tendency to exaggerate, to be overly optimistic, and to be so preoccupied with the outcome that you ignore any potential dangers. You will have faith in yourself and your plans, but there is a risk of making mistakes that you will later regret if you do not plan well and pay attention to necessary details. Be positive but realistic!

If you are by nature quite serious and reserved, this year you will surprise everyone. You will become more talkative and spontaneous. If you are normally outspoken and friendly, these traits may be even more emphasized. But regardless of your basic temperament, good humor will prevail and you will find ways to resolve any problems you may encounter.

You may be attracted to adventure and conquest. The new and unusual will appeal to you, especially if it involves a degree of risk or danger. You should be careful not to go overboard in your search for excitement. This spirit of adventure could bring you into contact with new people, cultures, and languages. You could be involved in a light-hearted romance that may or not last after the year is over.

Under the influence of Jupiter, there is a tendency to gain weight, particularly in the hips and thighs. Therefore, you should be more than usually careful about your diet. And, of course, getting a lot of exercise is desirable.

You are likely to meet some interesting people who will stimulate your intellect and expose you to new and exciting ideas. They also will encourage you to spread your wings and travel. This could be a social year for you where you can go places and do things you have never considered before. If you are single, you will have the opportunity to meet other unattached people. One of them could become important to you. However, the relationship will probably not turn out to be long-lasting. If you are in a committed relationship, you might feel a little restless with the restrictions that it places upon you. One solution is to bring the new friends you make home to meet your partner. This is certainly a year when you can explore and grow in mind and spirit.

Solar Return MC Libra:

It will be possible this year to find the balance you long for. You will work tenaciously and persistently to materialize your goals. Diplomacy and your gift for sociability will go a long way toward achieving success in whatever you do this year. Overhasty actions and decisions without forethought will interfere with your progress. It will be important to think before you leap and plan your work carefully and calmly.

There is a possibility for romantic problems to occupy your mind a lot, which may interfere with your professional life. Deal with this by keeping your personal and professional life separate and don’t waste your energy on it. If you can achieve emotional balance, you will be stronger in everything you do, but don’t rely on others in order to achieve your personal success.

This influence favors working in groups to accomplish your goals, finding a solution to any legal problems you may have, and reconciling any differences you still have with others. It is important that you overcome and heal any bitterness or hurts you may have experienced in the past which might be standing in the way of your progress.

If your work is related to the courts, public relations, diplomacy, or some artistic form, you will have a year of progress and professional satisfaction. As a matter of fact, regardless of the kind of work you are involved in, you will find more harmony and balance than before.

However, this influence could also generate strong tensions within your home. The principal cause of the disagreements and arguments will come from others wanting to impose their authority on you. Fire also could be a threat now, especially if similar indications in this report indicate it. You should take the necessary precautions to insure your safety.

Chapter 2: Astrological influence of your personality.

Sun in 7th house:

Under this solar influence you will seek balance in your emotional life. If you don’t have a partner, chances are that you will look for one. Possibly family members or a close friend might introduce you to someone. If you are already committed, this influence could bring you closer and you will spend the majority of your time this year with him or her. If you have plans for marriage, it would be an ideal year to tie the knot. You will be more influenced by others and will listen to and adopt their ideas with greater interest. It’s important to select people who are compatible with your interests, because this is a year of sharing for you. Surrounding yourself with positive, interesting people will bring better results.

This year also favors team work and political or social activity. You could find yourself in the public eye in some way. It would also be a good year for settling legal claims.

The most favorable period will be halfway through this year (from birthday to birthday), at which time you will be most receptive to this energy and better able to profit by it. You will ask for and receive help from people in the position to give you positive assistance.

Sun conjunction Mercury:

Your ideas will be on the right track this year. You will be able to understand situations better and put things in their proper place. Communication will be important to you and this influence will prompt you to keep your correspondence up to date and to stay in contact with your friends. You probably will take one or several short trips, especially if other astrological factors in this report indicate the same.

Sun opposition Asc:

During this period your energy will increase a lot. However, you might use it ineffectively. You could use your energy trying to impose your will on others or fighting with people who try to dominate you. You could also become more selfish and rigid in your way of thinking. Your interests and desires will probably collide with those around you. Be careful to act in good conscience. Your personal vanity or your excessive pride will be your enemy during this time. You will blame everything on others because you won’t be able to recognize and acknowledge your own errors.

The relationship with your father, or with other people who represent a certain type of authority, will be difficult. You will feel unjustly imposed upon. You will find it very difficult to live peaceably with others during this year.

It is important to watch your energy level and your nutrition. You should not allow yourself to get to the point of physical exhaustion. It is advisable to adopt a diet that supplies your body with the proper nutrition to keep your strength up.

Sun semisquare Venus:

You may encounter, and have to deal with, some unresolved romantic problems from the past. Stay calm and develop a positive attitude toward your partner, as well as your social life in general. The irritations and displeasures caused by others could be the reflection of your own inner uneasiness. This aspect generates a desire for comfort and pleasure, which could lead to disruptions in your routine, followed by a possible loss of income. Do your best to control these yearnings and search for a creative solution for your inner dissatisfaction.

Chapter 3: The emotional world.

Solar Return Moon in Virgo :

You will be self-contained and more reserved during this time. You will be very sensitive and receptive to any criticism or comments of others, especially those coming from women. It is important for you to keep your self-esteem high and to remain on solid ground during this time so that you don’t become too critical of yourself. You will tend to be more analytical, paying more attention to details than you usually do.

You may tend to be more helpful and cooperative at this time, especially with people who appeal to you. In your professional life, you could possibly become dissatisfied with your job and think about finding another one. It would be wise to think seriously before you make any changes, because you will be acting from your emotions and may not make the wisest and most advantageous decision.

You may notice that your memory is better and that you can concentrate better. You will have more interest in taking up some new study, especially in such subjects as nutrition or diet.

You may be more quiet and reserved than is normal for you this year. Or you may find yourself being victimized in some way. This could lead to your getting some sort of psychosomatic disorder. Maintain a mentally positive attitude, express your emotions freely, and use this time to study, with your goal being to know yourself better and to improve yourself.

Solar Return Moon in 9th house:

This year favors the possibility of a long journey to a foreign country, probably with your family or with someone you know intimately. You will feel the desire to visit places of a different culture and to increase your knowledge of the world in general. The decision to travel will be more emotional than logical.

On the other hand, your consciousness and your emotional depth will be expanded. You will need and search for new experiences in scientific as well as philosophical or metaphysical fields. Your general attitude will be more open and liberal. You could also become more interested in pursuing a search for religious or spiritual truths. The practice of meditation or prayer will be very favorable during this time, and you could experience moments of inspiration and illumination.

Moon square Mercury:

Your thinking will be less sure, precise, and positive. This could affect your ability to communicate with others and your ability to concentrate. You also will have frequent changes of mood, which may confuse the people around you. You will be more subjective and less logical.

You may want to make a change of residence or make some changes within your home. Any possible change should be considered and thought out thoroughly, avoiding impulsive or capricious decisions. There could be communication problems within the home which will lead to conflicts and difficulties. Always be clear and precise in what you want and ask for. Your popularity will be up and down as you could sometimes be the target of criticism.

In addition, you will be involved in a variety of projects which do not produce any satisfactory, appreciable results. The failure will be a consequence of the lack of continuity in your ideas and projects. Be alert and use your analytical mind in making your decisions.

Moon sesquiquadrate Pluto:

Your emotions will be very profound, intense, and difficult to control with your own will. You could have violent and unexpected reactions due to the great activity of your subconscious mind. Fears and negative memories from your childhood will come to the surface, and it will be necessary to deal with them. Take care not to repress these emotions, but to allow them to be expressed freely now.

Conditions in your home could become tumultuous and you may find that someone is trying to manipulate you. At times you could also be the one who wants to manipulate the others. The relationship with your mother and with women in general will be closer, but there could be difficulties in communicating.

***** SECOND PART *****

ANALYSIS OF THE 12 ASTROLOGICAL HOUSES. INNER RESPONSES.

HOUSE 1: Personality. Principal interest of the year.

Solar Return Asc in or within 3 degrees of natal 5th house:

Love will be the principal theme this year. Your desire to achieve a stable and happy relationship will cause you to direct your attention to any problems within yourself that need to be dealt with. If you are not involved with anyone, there is a real possibility of beginning a new relationship. If you are already in a committed relationship, it will be a year of pleasure and enjoyment. In either case, your desire to enjoy life and to search for amusement will be accentuated. This could lead you into some risky situations.

Your contact with children will also be important. In the chart of a woman, this influence could indicate pregnancy.

Solar Return Asc Conjunct natal Neptune:

Your mystic and spiritual side will surface. You will search for a closer understanding of spirituality and will become interested in the mysteries of life. You may find it more difficult to concentrate hard on day-to-day tasks. Your sensitivity and intuition will also increase.

Any bad habits you have could become more serious, especially at times when you are confronting problems or upsetting situations.

 

HOUSE 2: Financial situation.

Solar Return 2nd house cusp in or within 3 degrees of natal 6th house:

You may find yourself earning your principal source of income this year while working in a more subordinate or dependent position than you are used to. If you are self-employed, your financial stability will probably depend in great measure on some other person or persons whom you work with. There could be some medical expenses to be paid out.

Pluto in 2nd house of Solar Return:

This year will bring profound changes in your financial situation. You will be presented with possibilities for discovering new sources of income which you didn’t expect. However, this could require you to make some radical changes in your life style.

You will concentrate more on your material security needs, and will pay more attention to people and to situations that can help you obtain a more secure financial base. You will be concerned with finding new meaning in your daily activities.

However, the changes you attempt to make could also result in loss or setbacks that will force you to explore new strategies and plans for your future. It is possible that these adverse situations are not under your control but are caused by the general economic conditions at the time.

 

HOUSE 3: The conscious mind. Study, communication, and short trips.

Solar Return 3rd house cusp in or within 3 degrees of natal 8th house:

This year brings a certain danger of accidents or problems while taking short trips. It is also important to use caution in the commitments you make and the contracts you sign during this year. Some of your letter-writing relationships may terminate.

 

HOUSE 4: The home.

Solar Return 4th house cusp in or within 3 degrees of natal 9th house:

You could feel the desire to begin a new life in a foreign country, but your final decision will depend on the current conditions in your home. There is the possibility for some of the members of your family to do some long-distance traveling. Your own opportunities will come toward the end of this solar year.

Your spiritual life will be strongly influenced by your family traditions.

Venus in 4th house of Solar Return:

You will be thinking about beautifying your home, redecorating, buying new furniture or other things that increase your comfort and provide a harmonious environment. However, it would be wise to be practical and not spend too much on luxuries or unnecessary objects.

This astrological influence promises happiness in your home and improved relationships with family and loved ones. You will enjoy each other’s company. You will probably be in the mood to have some social affairs in your own home.

The last three months of this solar year will be very favorable and harmonious, especially regarding your personal and home life.

Saturn in 4th house of Solar Return:

You will confront problems or obstacles within your home, especially with older people. Commitments and responsibilities at home could weigh you down and limit your freedom, causing you to become frustrated and unsatisfied. You may have to return to your parents’ home to lend assistance, or you may receive a family member into your home who needs your help and support. This period could bring about ties and responsibilities that will be difficult to cut off later on.

During this year you will be concentrating on your security needs and building a financial base for the future. However, any efforts you make to invest in real estate will be delayed or frustrated at this time.

The most difficult period will be during the last months of this solar year.

Neptune in 4th house of Solar Return:

The climate in your home could be confused and uncertain and you could have problems that are difficult to resolve. This uncertainty in your home could be the result of dishonesty, betrayal, or envy. There is also the danger of robbery or theft so it would be advisable to increase your security methods. Make an attempt to carefully select the people who visit your home. Also become aware of any current problems or disagreements between the persons in your family circle. If you don’t take these precautions, you will suffer the consequences at some future date.

It is possible that your family will demand certain types of sacrifices from you that you won’t be willing to comply with, and if you do, they will become a heavy load. This will be coming mainly from your parents or others in authority over you. These problems will probably surface toward the end of this solar year.

 

HOUSE 5: Romance & amusement. Relationship with children.

Solar Return 5th house cusp in or within 3 degrees of natal 10th house:

You will become very creative in your professional work. You will develop many new ideas that will allow you to improve your work style. You could also be successful in business investments and speculative ventures that involve a degree of risk. You could receive help and encouragement in your professional growth from a spouse or partner.

If you have children, their achievements will bring you great satisfaction.

 

HOUSE 6: Health and illness. Employment. Service.

Solar Return 6th cusp Conjunct natal 11th cusp:

Your health could be affected by your determination to pursue your goals and aspirations at the expense of your physical body. It would be advisable to take this into consideration as you plan your work schedule. This influence could also indicate concern over the health of a friend.

In the work arena, there is the possibility of beginning some activity with friends whom you trust, or you may receive the support of friends which will improve your present conditions.

Uranus in 6th house of Solar Return:

You will have problems in your work due to your new progressive ideas. You will start to resent a routine that you feel is too stringent and will search for more freedom. Your rebellion against authority and rigid schedules could cause problems with your superiors. You could be tempted to make drastic changes in your work or start looking around for another position. It is not wise to make impulsive decisions. Your desire for more independence will cause you to act first and think about it later.

In the physical area, you could have nervous problems because of the great stress you will be feeling during this year. You may have health problems that are difficult to diagnose and it would be advisable to get a second opinion in the type of treatment you require.

 

HOUSE 7: Associations. Marriage and partnerships.

Solar Return 7th house cusp in or within 3 degrees of natal 11th house:

Some of your friendship ties will be reaffirmed and strengthened this year. You will probably renew your association with some people who you have not had much contact with recently, or you may begin a romantic relationship that could become a long-term one. You will appreciate the help you receive from friends and associates that assists you in realizing your hopes and aspirations.

Solar Return 7th cusp Conjunct natal Sun:

You will feel very pleased with your spouse or committed partner and will have the opportunity to show others who he/she is. At the same time, your partner will help you to have more trust in yourself and to develop your personal authority. The relationship will also help you to undertake enterprises and fulfill objectives that perhaps you could only accomplish together. The same applies to your friends and business associates. Success during this period will depend in great measure on the quality of your relationship with the people close to you.

Mercury in 7th house of Solar Return:

You will be attracted to interesting people with whom you can share ideas and opinions. This will be a very good year for communication with those close to you, particularly if you are involved in a committed relationship. You will be able to clarify your problems more objectively, because you will be more detached and logical. On the negative side, this could be carried too far in your intimate relationships. You could become more detached and cerebral, searching only for intellectual stimulation and good conversation. This could very definitely affect your partnership in a romantic situation. Any problems you may encounter should be dealt with very carefully. On the other hand, this influence is good for business contacts and negotiations.

Solar Return Mercury Conjunct natal Sun:

The ideas and comments of others will be very beneficial to you this year, and they will increase your personal pride. On the other hand, they could also be critical or full of gossip. You will feel more sure of yourself and better established in your current position and will be less influenced by the ideas of others.

Solar Return Mercury Conjunct natal Mercury:

Your intellectual capacity will increase during this year. You probably will associate with people who have the same interests and will stimulate you to continue studying or to participate in intellectual groups. It will be easy for you to learn and also to relate your knowledge during this period. It will be important not to spend all the time talking about your projects without giving anyone else the opportunity to share.

Jupiter in 7th house of Solar Return:

You will enjoy your intimate and personal relationships a great deal, especially if you are with a partner. This year will be very favorable for companionship and for all types of relationships. You will have a positive response from others and will feel the protection and help from those around you. If you are not involved with anyone, you could begin a very positive relationship during this year that will be very beneficial for you. You will have contacts with influential and powerful people, probably people from other countries. The important relationships could be personal as well as professional. If you are planning marriage during this year, you will have a very happy union that will permit you to expand your own horizons.

Legal matters will also be favorable as well as contacts with the public in general. However, try not to be so confident and outspoken that you invite deception or other problems in the future.

Solar Return Jupiter Conjunct natal Mercury:

You will look for contacts with certain people who will mentally stimulate you through the knowledge or wisdom they share with you. In addition, their kindness and sympathy will make it easier for you to communicate more effectively.

 

HOUSE 8: Life and death issues, inheritances, and mysteries.

Solar Return 8th house cusp in or within 3 degrees of natal 12th house:

You should not neglect your health during this period, especially if you have had a serious illness in the past. There is a possibility of having a relapse, or an aggravation of a chronic condition. You may have to confront other serious problems that you have been carrying around for a long time and finally resolve them.

There also is the possibility that you will need to confront old enemies and come to terms with them.

Solar Return 8th cusp Conjunct natal Saturn:

You will try to find logical, realistic, and rational explanations for the extraordinary or paranormal events in your life. During this year you will change by becoming more responsible and aware of your obligations to others. On the other hand, there could be the possibility of acquiring some new chronic bad habits that are difficult to cure. You should be aware of this and use your will power in order to avoid serious, future problems. You should also take special care of your joints, teeth, and skin.

Mars in 8th house of Solar Return:

During this year you could have conflicts relating to inheritances, legacies, or the possessions of your partner or another person very close to you. If you are married, you could have arguments in reference to the handling of community property or of your money. There is the possibility that you will tend to waste money or assets which you control. It won’t be a good time to ask for any type of credit or loan.

During this time you could have an encounter with someone which will have a powerful effect on you and will lead to some sort of transformation within you. This encounter could be in the form of a positive or negative confrontation or an argument or disagreement with this person.

On the other hand, your sexuality will be revitalized and will be an important means of expression for you and for your transformation.

 

HOUSE 9: Religion and spirituality. Long-distance travel.

Solar Return 9th house cusp in or within 3 degrees of natal 2nd house:

You could take a journey to a foreign country with the end result of beginning a business or making investments there. You will search for ways to increase your income and will investigate the possibilities available in other places. Progress in business affairs is very positive.

 

HOUSE 10: Your profession, success, and status.

Solar Return MC in or within 3 degrees of natal 3rd house:

You may have to take some short trips relating to your profession, or you may receive certain job proposals by mail or other communication. Your professional growth will be in direct relationship to your intellectual achievement, your conscientious pursuit of your studies, and your relationship with your environment. If you are involved in some type of intellectual work, you will have much success during this year.

Solar Return MC Conjunct natal Pluto:

You will have the desire to change the direction of your life and your profession. Your desires will be more profound and will come from your most inner self, which will make you more ambitious and tenacious than you were before. You could become impatient and demanding with people you work with, and could develop a great need to control which will result in opposition to your ideas. You will make many changes in your daily routine and could even make a complete change in your occupation.

 

HOUSE 11: Friendships and social life.

Report Order FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions related to Report Orders

WHAT IF MY ORDER DOESN’T ARRIVE WITHIN 24 HOURS?
Reports are generally delivered within 24 hours of order placement, or if there were missing details, within 24 hours of the receipt of full information needed to generate the report(s). Occasionally, an order might arrive a little late if there was an unexpected influx of orders, for example, a power outage, etc.

However, if 24 hours have passed and you don’t find an email from Cafe Astrology (reports@cafeastrology.com) in your inbox or spam folder, then please write and let us know. Please understand that we make every effort to send your order, and if this is impossible, you will receive a refund.

Some people have problems with email delivery, particularly with emails that have attachments. In these cases, we can put the report(s) in a secure place online for download. If you prefer this method regardless, write us an email at reports@cafeastrology.com with the request or add the request in the notes with your order placement.

HOW WILL I RECEIVE MY REPORT?
By default, we send report orders placed in this shop to the email address you enter during the checkout process. You can specify an email address where you prefer we send your reports.

SHOULD I USE 12 PM FOR AN UNKNOWN BIRTH TIME?
No, you should specify that the birth time is unknown rather than guess it so that the report can be created specifically for unknown birth times.

Although unknown birth time reports can be a little shorter than the reports with known birth times, they only include information that is known. Most importantly, the ambiguous information is excluded from the report.

Some people feel that they will get more for their money if they guess at the birth time, as they assume that more interpretations in the reports are better. However, it’s much better to have a shorter report with accurate interpretations than a longer report with a mix of accurate and inaccurate interpretations! In this case, less is definitely more.

CAN I ORDER A SOLAR RETURN (OR OTHER FORECAST REPORT) FOR A YEAR IN THE FUTURE/PAST?
Yes, absolutely. The start date of a report can be any date in the past or the future.

In the case of a Solar Return, the start date will be on or in the two days surrounding the birth month and day due to the nature of this type of forecasting technique, but the year of the report can be any year in the future or past.

In the case of the Time Line report, the software only allows the start date to be the first of any given month, for example, May 1st, 2017.

DO I NEED TO PAY WITH A PAYPAL BALANCE TO PLACE AN ORDER?
No, the shopping cart used on the site is run by Paypal, but all the usual payment options are included so that you can use credit cards, debit cards, and the like. There are different shopping cart technologies available to sellers, and Cafe Astrology has selected the Paypal shopping cart as its solution. All payment details are sent to Paypal and not to Cafe Astrology. Paypal sends Cafe Astrology an email with each order that lists the order details and email address, not any payment information. We are not set up as a merchant at this time.

WHY ARE THE PLANETS’ TRANSITS OF THE HOUSES IN MY REPORT NOT THE SAME AS THOSE OF YOUR HOROSCOPES?
Reports are based on your birth time, while horoscopes are based on solar charts. A solar chart places the Sun’s sign on the Ascendant, and most people don’t have the same Sun and Ascendant in their natal charts. While a solar chart is a valid chart and certainly has its merits, the natal chart should be the first you look at.

WHICH HOUSE SYSTEM DO YOU USE?
For reports, the default house system used is Placidus. However, you can request another house system for your order (example, Koch, Equal, Whole Sign, etc.).

WHY DO MY RESULTS DIFFER FROM THOSE FROM OTHER SOURCES?
It’s important to note that there are many different valid methods for arriving at various astrology calculations, including the Zodiac (Sidereal or Tropical), system of houses used, method of progressing the houses in the case of progressions, use of current or birth location for certain forecasting techniques, and many more. It’s rare that an astrology software program is making wrong calculations. Typically, discrepancies have to do with different systems and not about one or the other being “wrong.” When the Ascendant differs, it’s usually about an ambiguous time zone since we must use the time zone that was in effect at the time of birth and historical time zone information is not perfect. It is simply not true that any one particular software program has every historical time zone correct, although many efforts are made to get them right.

If you receive unexpected results, please send us an email at reports@cafeastrology.com so we can look into the matter and explain the reasons for it, such as an ambiguous time zone or a particular calculation method. It’s important to provide as many details as possible.

WHY IS THE DATE OF MY SOLAR RETURN NOT THE SAME AS MY BIRTHDAY?
The Solar Return chart is drawn for the date and time of the return of the Sun to its exact position at birth, and not to the birthday itself. The Sun returns to its birth position once a year on or near the day of birth, and rarely coincides with the time of birth. For example, if my birthday is September 2nd, 1970 @ 5:00 PM, my Solar Return could be September 1st, 2016, @ 4:24 AM one year, September 2nd, 2017, @ 1:22 AM the next, and so forth. If the birth data is entered correctly on the report, you can expect the Solar Return date and time to be accurate.

HOW CAN I GET MY REPORT ORDER QUICKLY?
Report orders are promised within approximately 24 hours from the time of order placement and complete information required to create the report. We send out reports by email and are at the report computer typically eight hours a day. Because orders and responses come in from all around the world at all hours of the day and night, rush orders are not possible. However, to prevent delays, making certain that you’ve included all information requested and that it’s accurate will prevent the need for email back and forths that will cause delays.

Typically orders are emailed out within 12 hours or so, but they do sometimes come closer to 24 hours. The most common reason is a sudden influx of orders. There are times when more than the usual number of orders come in and it takes much longer to complete orders.

WHEN DO I RECEIVE MY REPORT?
Within 24 hours of order placement, you should receive an email from Cafe Astrology, either as a request for further information or clarification if there is missing/unclear information or with a report attachment. If the information is incomplete, we will request it from you and you will receive your order within 24 hours of receipt of the full information necessary to create your report.

DO I HAVE TO ENTER MY BIRTH DATA FOR EACH REPORT THAT I WANT TO ORDER?
If you are buying more than one report in one order, you can enter birth information only once if you prefer. However, it’s important to note that some reports require different or additional information, so be sure to supply all that is needed to create your reports.

Solar Return Dates

Further clarification of Solar Return dates: A Solar Return chart is cast each year for the time that the Sun returns to its exact position at birth. My birthday is September 18th, so my Solar Return charts will always start on or around that date each year. (It may occur on September 17th or 19th some years – each year, the exact time and date will be different).

A Solar Return report draws up a Solar Return chart for the birthday, and that chart is representative of the year following that date. It’s important to note that unless you were born on January 1st, Solar Return reports do not cover calendar years. So, if your birthday is April 15th, for example, a Solar Return chart drawn for April 2019 will cover the year from April 2019 to April 2020. If your birthday is November 20th, the Solar Return chart cast on November 20th, 2019 will cover the birthday year spanning from November 2019 to November 2020.

If it’s June 2018 and I want to place an order for my upcoming Solar Return year (that is, a report that would cover the year from September 2018 to September 2019), I would specify that I want a report for “2018-2019,” or I would write that I want the report to “start September 2018”. The location of the Solar Return chart would then be the location I expect to be in September 2018.

Similarly, if my birthday were April 10th, my Solar Return charts will always occur in April and the periods covered for Solar Return reports will always be the year from one April to the next April.

Which Solar Return?

Which Solar Return (Birthday Forecast) report is best for you?

 

Many of our customers order more than one Solar Return report for the same forecast period, as each report offers a different perspective on the same period. The Journeys Solar Return report is perhaps the most detailed and examines the most factors. However, some may find this report too detailed. As well, it is highly analytical, examining both negative and positive potentials rather bluntly at times, making it best for students of astrology. The Solar Return Yearly Forecast report tends to be more focused on potential events than the other reports. The Planets in Solar Return report takes a psychological and behavioral approach to the forecast period, offering strategies for dealing with the planetary influences of the Solar Return chart. This report is most recommended for growth-oriented individuals and those not familiar with astrology, although it’s also excellent for those who have knowledge of astrology. The Merriman’s Solar Return report adds forecasting for specific dates. Like the Journeys, it has some blunt descriptions of negative potentials. If this makes you nervous, it’s better not to order either of these reports.

If you’d like to compare the four reports, I have put all four Solar Return report samples on one page here: Sample Solar Return Reports.
