Astrology Chart![]() Astrology is the study of the stars and their influence upon human affairs and activity. Astrology is a testament to the occult maxim: "as above, so below." Astrology is considered an occult science. I truly believe that the occult (hidden) sciences have all the answers we pray for and have been looking for under religious pretenses. It is very sad and unfortunate that many religious individuals shun astrology due to grave ignorance and mental conditioning. It is the religious individual who desperately needs astrological information in every aspect of their lives, especially in the area of relationships (marriage partnerships), sex, finances, and health. However, the real reason of why astrology is prohibited in most Western religions is revealed in the section "Astro-theology" beneath which shows how Western religions are based upon the movements and activities of the Sun, planets, and other celestial bodies that convey to man a spiritual story or moral that pertains to man's inner and higher self. "The Twelve Signs of the Zodiac represent the twelve lessons of human existence, the twelve qualities to be developed in the formation of the perfect man. It is said that these qualities are gradually achieved by every human being, life after life, but not necessarily Sign after Sign. That is where man's free will comes in. If he chooses to work under some particular Sign more often than the others, or repulses the lesson of Sign altogether, a one-sided character results, such as genius with evil tendencies." - Vera Stanley Wilder "Astrology is based on the belief that the movement of the stars and other celestial bodies affect our lives here on Earth. Not everyone acknowledges these effects but those who study astrology have many reasons to believe that all things, both terrestrial and celestial, are strongly connected. In fact, scientist have absolutely determined that the moon has influence over certain phenomena on Earth such as ocean tides. One common misinterpretation of astrology is that it determines our fate. The truth, however, is that astrology describes our potential; it is our choice to live up to that potential or to deny it. Astrology is organic rather than mechanistic; its meaning grows and deepens as we learn its symbols and begin t understand its language. Astrology can't really predict what happens to us in day-to-day life because it deals with trends - not minute-to-minute occurrences. In other words, astrology examines patterns that prevail in our lives - opportunities or gateways that are made available to us. Astrology is a highly effective way of interpreting our individual realities. The study of astrology increases our awareness and knowledge of ourselves and of the people around us. It empowers us." - Jenni Kosarin "The wise man is master of his stars, the fool is ruled by them." - Vera Stanley Wilder "Astrology impels, it doesn't compel. It's a map!"

Continue ReadingQuadruplicity Signs that share the same qualities share many dynamic potentials for growth as well as profound fulfillment, but are often less harmonious.
Following is a chart specifically listing the actual Signs that are of the same Quadruplicity:
Cardinal Signs: Put together, this is a clear-cut picture of dynamism, activity, tremendous stress, and remarkable achievement. These people know the meaning of great change since their lives are often characterized by significant crises and major successes. This combination is like a simultaneous storm of summer, fall, winter, and spring. The danger is chaotic diffusion of energy; the potential is irrespressible growth and victory. Cardinal Signs = Aries, cancer, Libra and Capricorn. Fixed Signs: Fixed signs are always establishing themselves in a given place or area of experience. Like explorers who arrive and plant a flag, these people claim a position from which they do not enjoy being deposed. They are staunch, stalwart, upright, trusty, honorable people, although their obstinacy is well-known. Their contribution is fixity, and they are the angels who support our visible world. Fixed Signs = Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius. Mutable Signs: Mutable people are versatile, sensitive, intelligent, nervous, and deeply curious about life. They are the translators of all energy. They often carry out or complete tasks initiated by others. Combinations of these signs have developed minds; they are imaginative and jumpy and think and talk a lot. At worst their lives are a Tower of Babel. At best they are adaptable and ready creatures who can assimilate one kind of experience and enjoy it while anticipating coming changes. Mutable Signs = Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces. SOURCE: Berkeley Publishing Group TRIPLICITY Signs of the same element share many basic traits in common and tend to form stable configurations and ultimately harmonious relationships.
Following is a chart specifically listing the actual Signs that are of the same Element:
Fire Signs: On the whole these are emotional, volatile types, quick to anger, quick to forgive. They are adventurous, powerful people and act as a source of inspiration for everyone. They spark into action with immediate exuberant impulses. They are intelligent, self-involved, creative, and idealistic. They all share a certain vibrancy and glow that outwardly reflects an inner fame and passion for living. Earth Signs: These are in constant touch with the material world and tend to be conservative. Although they are all capable of Spartan self-discipline, they are earthy, sensual people who are stimulated by the tangible, elegant, and luxurious. The thread of their lives is always practical, but they do fantasize and are often attracted to dark, mysterious, emotional people. They are like great cliffs overhanging the sea, forever married to the ocean but always resisting erosion from the dark, emotional forces that thunder at their feet. Air Signs: These are light, mental creatures desirious of contact, communication, and relationship. They are involved with people and the forming of ties on many levels. Original thinkers, they are the bearers of human news. Their language is their sense of word, color, style, and beauty. They provide an atmosphere suitable and pleasant for the living. They add change and versatility to the scene, and it is through them that we can explore new territory of human intelligence and experience. Water Signs: These are silent, mysterious types whose magic hypnotizes even the most determined realist. They have uncanny perceptions about people and are as rich as the oceans when it comes to feeling, emotion, or imagination. They are sensitive, mystical creatures with memories that go back beyond time. Through water, life is sustained. These people have the potential for the depths of darkness or the heights of mysticism and art. SOURCE: Berkeley Publishing Group POLARITY Signs are either masculine or femine.
Following is a list of the specific Signs according to their polarity:
Each Sign also has a dominant statement that expresses a major attribute of the sign:
1st House (Personality): Individuality, body appearance, general outlook on life 2nd House (Money): Finance, possessions, ethical principles, gain or loss 3rd House (Relatives): Relatives, communication, short journeys, writing, education 4th House (Home): Family and home, parental ties, land and property, security 5th House (Pleasure): Pleasure, children, creativity, entertainment, risk 6th House (Health): Health, harvest, hygiene, work and service, employees 7th House (Marriage): Marriage and divorce, law, partnerships and alliances 8th House (Inheritance): Inheritance, secret deals, sex, death, regeneration 9th House (Travel): Travel, sports, study, philosophy 10th House (Business): Career, social standing, success and honor 11th House (Friends): Friendship, social life, hopes and wishes 12th House (Trouble): Troubles, illness, secret enemies, hidden agendas Following is a list of the Seven Major Chakras and the Signs that governs the specific Chakra. Chakras are energy centers located above the physical body that correspond to certain glands of the body's endocrine system. Chakras record and hold information (negative and positive) about a person's past and present life.
Following is a list of the Planets in the Houses. According to Berkeley Publishing, "An astrologer, knowing the exact time and place of your birth , will use tables of planetary motion in order to locate the planets in your horoscope chart. He or she will determine which planet or planets are in which sign and in which house. It is not uncommon, in an individual's horoscope, for there to be two or more planets in the same sign and in the same house. The characteristics of the planets modify the influence of the Sun according to their natures and strengths. Sun: Source of life, the conscious will, human potential Moon: Emotions, Moods, Customs, Habits, Changeable, Adaptive, Nurturing Mercury: Communication, Intellect, Reasoning Power, Curiosity, Short Travels Venus: Love, Delight, Charm, Harmony, Balance, Art, Beautiful Possessions Mars: Energy, Initiative, War, Anger, Adventure, Courage, Daring Impulse Jupiter: Luck, Optimism, Generous, Expansive, Opportunities, Protection Saturn: Pessimism, Privation, Obstacles, Delay, Hard Work, Research, Lasting Rewards After Long Struggle Uranus: Fashion, Electricity, Revolution, Independence, Freedom, Sudden Changes, Modern Science Neptune: Sensationalism, Theater, Dreams, Inspiration, Lust for Power, Strong Obsessions The following is a chart of the Planets in the Houses specifically listing the Sign that is ruled by the specific planet. It is the same as the above except wit the Sign being denoted after the Planet. Sun (Leo): Source of life, the conscious will, human potential Moon (Cancer): Emotions, Moods, Customs, Habits, Changeable, Adaptive, Nurturing Mercury (Gemini, Virgo): Communication, Intellect, Reasoning Power, Curiosity, Short Travels Venus (Taurus, Libra): Love, Delight, Charm, Harmony, Balance, Art, Beautiful Possessions Mars (Aries, Scorpio): Energy, Initiative, War, Anger, Adventure, Courage, Daring Impulse Jupiter (Sagittarius, Pisces): Luck, Optimism, Generous, Expansive, Opportunities, Protection Saturn (Capricorn, Aquarius): Pessimism, Privation, Obstacles, Delay, Hard Work, Research, Lasting Rewards After Long Struggle Uranus (Aquarius): Fashion, Electricity, Revolution, Independence, Freedom, Sudden Changes, Modern Science Neptune (Pisces): Sensationalism, Theater, Dreams, Inspiration, Lust for Power, Strong Obsessions MOON'S INFLUENCE OVER HEALTH Following is a chart each Sign governs on the human body. The corresponding Sign may be prone to injury and disease of the body parts it governs. Aries: Head, Brain, Face, Upper Jaw Taurus: Throat, Neck, Lower Jaw Gemini: Hands, Arms, Lungs, Shoulders, Nervous System Cancer: Esophagus, Stomach, Breasts, Womb, Liver Leo: Heart, Spine Virgo: Intestines, Liver Libra: Kidneys, Lower Back Scorpio: Sex Gland Sagittarius: Hips, Thighs, Liver Capricorn: Skin, Bones, Teeth, Knees Aquarius: Circulatory System, Lower legs, Ankles Pisces: Feet, Toes, Tone of Being NOTE: Avoid work being done on that part of the body when the Moon is in the Sign governing that part of the body. CELL SALT REQUIREMENTS OF EACH SIGN Some of the biochemical experts have declared that the twelve principle cell salts found in the human body are ruled by the twelve signs of the Zodiac. They affirm that a person uses more of the cell-salt belonging to the Sign under which he was born, as that chemical is connected with the key-note of his activity. Therefore the first deficiency that occurs in his internal laboratory is this cell-salt, his 'birth salt', and the various symptoms of his ills may be traced primarily to this depletion. - Vera Stanley Alder

You may get close to your goals, only to feel them slip away around July 23 when lucky Jupiter turns retrograde -- then forms a stressful square to relentless Pluto in your 10th House of Career on July 25. You remain motivated, yet satisfaction is elusive. Meanwhile, taskmaster Saturn enters graceful Libra on July 21 to rev up your diplomacy skills and stabilize your alliances. However, your need for freedom conflicts with your responsibilities to others as conservative Saturn in your 7th House of Partners bumps into a tense opposition with unorthodox Uranus in your 1st House of Self on July 26, which is then further aggravated by aspects from Mars on July 30 and 31. Self-determination sounds good in theory, but you may find its rewards fleeting unless you're also willing to consider the needs of others. Your passionate ruling planet Mars is running through your 6th House of Adjustments until July 29, bringing so many details and differences of opinion to your life that it's hard to enjoy the sweetness of love. You may have to put the needs of others first now. But when the Sun enters Leo and your 5th House of Romance on July 22, you're ready to start putting your own interests first again, with newfound confidence to go after what you want. Mars enters Libra on July 29 to lighten your obligations. This is happening in your 7th House of Partnership, which is bound to make your personal life more exciting, yet you'll need to balance your own desires with strategic concern for how others will react. Your assertive ruling planet Mars is tiptoeing through careful Virgo and your 6th House of Service until July 29, which may leave you feeling like you're doing all the hard work and not getting the respect you deserve for it. Complaining probably won't help, but buckling down to do the very best job you can will be beneficial in the long run. The New Moon on July 11 is a Solar Eclipse in your 4th House of Roots, which might signal some issues on the home front that take your attention away from your public responsibilities -- it's essential that domestic concerns be addressed. On July 22 the Sun fires into bold Leo and your 5th House of Self-expression, which should give you the swagger you need to sell your next big creative idea. Success comes this month when you're sensitive enough to read subtle clues and clever enough to express yourself cautiously. Mouthy Mercury's move into outspoken Leo on July 9 resurrects bold ideas in your 4th House of Roots, encouraging you to speak from the heart. Yet one misspoken word can spell trouble thanks to the emotional New Moon in anxious Cancer on July 11 in your 3rd House of Communication. This is actually a Total Eclipse of the Sun that is meant to open your eyes to unspoken signals that can deepen your understanding of others. A stressful opposition between Saturn and Uranus on July 26 can help put an end to the struggle between controlling your own life and responding to the surprises brought to you by others. How you communicate is as important as what you say. Modulate your tone to appeal to the ear of each listener. Love planet Venus, which happens to be your ruling planet, steps into Virgo and your 5th House of Romance on July 10 to increase your chances for happiness -- as long as you take time to think and make a plan instead of just following your feelings. But first Venus opposes dreamy Neptune on July 8, which could be inspiring but may also blur your judgment about people. You could end up falling in love with an illusion or sacrificing yourself for someone who is undeserving. The Sun enters Leo and your 4th House of Home and Family on July 22, making your home the place to be to warm up a live-in relationship or invite new people into your life. Just steer clear of arrogant individuals and realize a little flexibility can go a long way toward making your personal life more peaceful. Communication and careful listening are keys to your professional life this month while the Sun is in your 3rd House of Information until July 22. Venus, your ruling planet, starts the month in bold Leo and your 4th House of Home and Family. This could inspire you creative ideas, or it can bring about some stubborn behavior. On July 10, Venus moves into earthy Virgo and your expressive 5th House of Fun and Creativity to help you make powerful presentations. You may have a nagging feeling that you're missing some vital information around July 23 when Jupiter turns retrograde in your 12th House of Secrets. There may be some data you need to double-check or alterations of strategy may be required to achieve your goal now. Fortunately, your mind grows sharper on July 27 when mental Mercury moves into analytical Virgo. July gets off to a slow start, allowing time to adjust to recent changes. But then your key planet Mercury enters lively Leo and your 3rd House of Communication on July 9, requiring you to deal with one distraction after another (which is further intensified when the Sun also enters Leo on July 22). Thankfully, attractive Venus enters analytical Virgo on July 10 to narrow your desires and help maintain focus.

Monthly Readings (May)Mars is still on duty, in your fifth house of pleasure, adventure, love, and sexuality. The fact that you'll have much erotic energy and big romantic availability will considerably improve your chances of fully enjoying love. Venus in Gemini will encourage couple communication (oral or written, it makes no difference) and walks or trips together. May 2010 will be a good period to study along with the dear one or to start another intellectual project together. Events will show you it's time you made some changes in your work style, your way of approaching work problems or in the way you organize your work. Although difficult to put in practice, in May 2010 you'll see more clearly the advantages (and even the material profit) that such a change will bring along. Informing, editing, practical procedures, commerce and negotiations will be at an advantage. With the Saturn-Uranus opposition on the health axis, you'd better not neglect your weak medical points and not push your body too much. A balanced lifestyle, with light meals and enough sleep, time spent in the open air and sports, as well as avoiding stress and toxins (chemicals, tobacco, alcohol etc.) are factors that will help you keep in shape. A dental check-up would be recommended. Take advantage of this period and try to get rid of a psychical addiction or to give up a harmful habit! The first two decanates in May 2010 won't be as sentimental as you'd like them to be. They'll bring a lot of sexual energy, but you seem to want more tenderness and understanding. To get what you want, you have to make an effort of communication. Talk to your partner as much as possible, don't hesitate to share your likes and fantasies, emotional expectations or even worries related to the couple's problems and obligations with him/her! Your discussions will show their results especially in the last decanate in May 2010. The presence of the Sun in Taurus is a nice promise of success: it'll help you mark out, exploit your abilities better and will enhance your organization and commanding capacity. Other energies will concentrate on team or popularity actions. It is here that you'll become aware that a change in your attitude and methods is required. You'll earn good money, but try to avoid useless expenses! Due to the Sun in Taurus, you'll enjoy much vitality, especially in the first two decanates in May 2010. The problem is you'll take in a lot of stress, and your nervous resistance is not great. Hence the tendency to anxiousness, impatience, inconsistency. The possible friends or children-related complications, the problems at home and of the family in general will distract you and make you tense. Read, go to a course, learn something new, do something related to getting informed! It wouldn't hurt if you took more walks, either. Venus will be in your sign between April 25th and May 25th 2010, a period in which you'll have charm, you'll attract love and sentimentally potential situations. But there'll be some Venusians stress that won't let events unfold smoothly, without headaches. You might experience moments of elation and great boldness, others of frustration and inhibition, you might also sometimes underestimate and have surprises, while unexpected sentimental things can happen to you. Don't stop, keep your flexibility and sense of humor! There'll be new factors that could make something change in your career. An opportunity, a crisis... The message is the same: a reevaluation is in order, maybe even a fundamental change. Regarding the home, family, properties, maybe the real estate, agriculture or hotels, you'll make efforts to overcome a problem. In everything you do, you'll be helped by your intuition, you'll be able to benefit from some secret support and you'll have the advantage of discretion. Financially, you can rely more on the side income rather than the direct, constant one. Mercury, the ruler of your sign, will be your the twelfth house, a restrictive house that diminishes strength and has medical connotations. Until May 12th 2010, Mercury will be retrograde in this house, worsening the risk of physical and psychological discomfort. Until May 20th 2010, the Sun will also be in your twelfth house. Therefore, in the first two decanates (especially in the first one), spare your strength, sleep as much as possible, reduce consumption of toxins and stimulants! And if something goes wrong, see a doctor immediately! Spend time around cheerful people, see the good side of things and make an effort to organize yourself better! There are no high chances for a burning and shared love in May 2010. Or, they are not visible, anyway. If something important happens though, it'll most probably happen secretly, away from indiscreet eyes or (that would be the saddest!) only in your imagination. Do your best for some realistic expectations, because hopes or demands that are too high can take you to bitter disappointments! Friendship and communication-based relationships are among the only ones with real chances to succeed. Current projects take us to the conclusion that you need to acquire new knowledge, to reset your scale of values and priorities or maybe your way of thinking. Trips, people from a distance, going abroad will become important aspects to you, maybe even when making decisions. Friends (or protectors) will help you with advice or even more consistently than that. Collaborations and associations will have an unpredictable development and can undergo moments of crisis. Your mood will vary, whereas your health is not that good. Not only can some old ailment relapse, but there's also the risk of unexpected problems regarding health. On the other hand, you can use this planetary stress as extra energy, as a very useful impulse to settle some issues about your lifestyle, all for the sake of your health. Fight against the tendency to be stubborn and don't take rigid positions in your relationships to the others! The romantic background will stay, but in May 2010 it can take on euphoric shades, or it can generate really exaggerate sentimental reactions. The erotic appetite will be more than considerable, but unfortunately it won't find the best use. You could blame the sentimental fuss, the hesitation, or some external troublesome factors. Eventually, the opposition between the ruler of your house of couples and the ruler of your house of sexuality points to a difficulty in matching the affective side with the physical one. With the Sun (the ruler of your sign) in your house of professional goals and social status, in May 2010 the stress will obviously be on career, status, image, prestige or reputation. You'll have great potential for success, especially if you control your enthusiasm and act diplomatically. A business, a loan, a succession, an estate distribution or other material matters in which third parties are involved, will come (back) to your attention. Finances, in general, demand energy and concentration, but also a new vision, new approach methods. Your vitality will be very good but, as well as in the previous months, the presence of Mars in Leo will lend you a predisposition to inflammations, infections, accidents or acute diseases. In some cases, your own carelessness or haste will be to blame. Excesses will definitely harm you and so will weird experiments done on your own. Consequently, for now, it's wiser to be moderate and to take only roads you've been before. Prudence and lucidity, especially when it comes to relationships and money! With Saturn in Virgo, in opposition with Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in your house of couples, the “I-you” axis will be terribly energizing, but considerably tense at the same time. The sentimental availability will be very high, offers will come and you can expect the most unexpected happenings! At the same time, the pressure around you, maybe even the one from your partner, directly or indirectly manifested, can lead to changes in mentality, habits, and look. You could have a notable interaction that will offer you new prospects, the chance for new collaborations or associations or other types of contact with significant meanings, which will generate new principles, ways of action or even goals. Change is inherent and it'll come due to an external impulse. There are chances for a contract or a work relationship to appear, with connections to study, culture or remoteness. Expect higher expenses than the usual ones. The financial situation will get better after May 20th 2010. A lot of energy, but a lot of stress too. Nervousness can have as results carelessness, anxiousness, sleep troubles or maybe stronger addictions (tobacco, alcohol, pills, food etc.). There's also a compulsive tendency to alternate excesses and inhibitions of optimism and pessimism. Friends, culture, information, hobbies and sex will relax you. Be careful when traveling or when handling relationships with far-away people, especially in the first part of May 2010! Joint goals, cultural-spiritual affinities and distance will have a great impact on the couple. You might get involved in a larger project together, which more people participate in. And if you started to make shared plans in the fall of 2009, they might head towards a finalization. Tension, stress and strictness can make your rather high erotic needs hard to fulfill in this period. There'll be new chances for success. You just have to be ready for changes and dominate your idleness and patterns. A process related to the work style, environment or the type of professional commitment, started in 2007, will reach a maximum stage and will ask for concrete action. In the first part of May 2010, expenses and income will follow the same trend as in the last decanate of April. Some delays or troubles related to calculations, papers, and bureaucracy are possible. The opposition Saturn will make with the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction will overlap the medical axis, managing to draw the attention to the physical shape and the problems concerning the functioning of the body. Certain procedures regarding health, lifestyle or appearance that started in 2007 will now be in the spotlight and will either give the expected results, or ask for some decisions to be made. Don't get involved in too many things! Try to make more time for yourself, for rest and relaxation! Everything will be filled with love and enthusiasm. You'll be surrounded by pheromones, your sexual magnetism will be irresistible and you'll have many invitations to adventure. Free yourself from rigidity and welcome love! New people that will make your heart pound, meeting some former lovers, coming back to some old love stories, all this is possible. If you have a stable relationship, it's time you clarified problems through calm, sincere and rational discussions. You'll keep making efforts for your career: fights for a better position, persuading discussions with your bosses and authorities, striving to prove who you are and what you are capable of, the temptation of competition, performance and reaching ambitious goals. But these efforts will pay off especially due to collaborations. Financially, the income you usually count on could cause troubles, but you might get some money from side sources. You'll be in a good enough shape. You'll even have more energy that you need, so you have to find a way to put it to use. Sport or other types of consistent physical activity would have more than good results on your health and, besides that, it would help you detach psychically, as stress will be rather high in this period. Clear up your relationships with friends, settle them right! No emotions, no hard feelings. With Venus in your house of couples, in the first two decanates of May 2010 your love chances will double. Venus will enhance your seduction capacity, will draw attention to your charm, will raise your receptivity to the advances of the opposite sex and will create the right conditions for dates, flirts, and love affairs. They seem to be connected to work. Could Cupid's arrow strike a person you work with, collaborate or come in contact with by means of current obligations? Efforts, obligations, work… Don't panic! It is now that your efforts can have special effects on your career, position, home, real estate or patrimony goods. The idea is it's worth the effort. Your effort will have results financially speaking as well, although money might not come in immediately. Somebody in the family will support you in making things move and operating those changes that will provide you with the social status you want. Relational involvement (associations, collaborations, team work) will be very important. Health will be an important topic: both the Sun, and Mercury (retrograde in the first part of May 2010) will be in your health sector. There's a sore point with the breathing or with your heart, there could be problems with the back bone, it can also be about an ophthalmology check-up. Or you'll simply manifest higher interest in various diets, treatments or rules for a healthier life. Be careful about the work-life balance, so that neither of them is affected! Mercury will stay in your house of eroticism, accompanied by the Sun in the first two decanates. The hunger for flirts, lust for love and appetite for sensuality, all of them will demand attention in May 2010. New relationships and short-term affairs seem to be more advantaged than old or long-term relationships. Promises will nevertheless be very beautiful on all levels starting with May 25th 2010, when Venus enters your house of couples. Information, knowledge, exchange of ideas, dates, trips – these will be the agents of change and novelty, the elements on the base of which you'll restructure certain principles or scales of values that used to seem eternal, but have now become obsolete. Intellectual procedures doubled by creativity and good promotion will be highly successful. Work generates money, but can also make things tense. You might have a problem with making decisions: you'll oscillate a lot, have difficulty in making up your mind. Your physical shape will be satisfactory, you'll be energetic and resistant. The nervous system will be tense though, and your psychic tormented. You could use a few days' holiday, away from all the problems. May 2010 will be a good month for investments and medical treatments, but also for body or cosmetic care. Beware if you travel and make sure your car is in a good technical condition! With Mars (the planet of desire, passion and action) still located in your house of couples and with Venus in transit through your house of love and sexual enthusiasm, it's clear that love is courting you more fervently than in the past few months. You have all the necessary weapons to seduce and conquer. In a relationship, you seem to be the active part, hot and full of initiative. And even if all the month May 2010 will be stimulating and exciting, the real fulfillment is promised for the last decanate though. Material issues will be priorities, no matter what it's about: earnings, business, investments, debts or relations with various involved institutions. The development in this period will clearly prove that you need to review your financial strategies and the way you manage money, maybe even that you need to take some measures to make your work more profitable. The family or the home expenses will help you understand these things even more clearly. Success will come through creativity, talent, imagination. You'll be ok and your vitality will improve. However, you might have a problem with excesses and overreactions, especially when tired or pressured. It'd be to your advantage to sleep more and organize your work so that you are not pressured by time. Pay more attention to home! You should have more patience with parents, the other relatives and domestic chores. You'll go through a period in which some older topics to meditate on come back to attention. They are about relationships in general, some of them concerning directly the couple relationship. The problems will be defined in terms of wishes and possibilities, enthusiasm and obstacles, private space and responsibilities, overcoming some prejudices or rigidity, understanding the other's mentality and aspirations, etc. On putting these aspects together will depend your happiness not only in May 2010, but for a long time from now on. You'll face the last restrictions that will try to stop novelty, change, the possible beginning of a great adventure. Maybe these obstacles will not even be so harmful, maybe their role is to help you find a better place in the middle of events, objectives and aspirations, to assess your chances, resources and risks more correctly. The better you inform yourself, the more chances for success you'll have. You'll spend much money on health, shape and body care, but your resources seem to be regenerating. The situation is much the same as it was in the previous month: work capacity, physical energy and good morale, but with a predisposition to small accidents, inflammations, infections, burns, cuts and other small accidents. You'll have initiative in medical problems, you'll take measures, interact easily with doctors and you might even take a trip on such purposes. Avoid excesses and over solicitation! Be careful what you write and sign and when traveling!

In the first decanate of February 2010, there'll be more chances for professional opportunities especially on the vocational or creativity side, and in the second decanate, more on the profitability side. Consequently, the income will rise too. February 2010 will be a full, generous, love-prone month, but it'll demand very much of you. Be careful especially in the first and second decanates! Have enough rest and avoid any harmful substances, regardless of the source, from cigarettes, alcohol or pills, to gone-off or over-processed food or poisoning substances! Dare anything in the name of love! Your initiative will be welcome! Routine relationships are not your cup of tea. You want love and sensuality and you'll get them in a more romantic shape in the first decanate of February 2010 and more sensible afterwards. Your ruler is Venus, and the happy combinations, filled with affection and eroticism, that it'll make in February 2010 cannot possibly leave you ice cold! It wouldn't be a surprise for you to fall in love, and your work or study environment seems to be the most fertile nursery for new love stories. Or maybe you're working on something very interesting with your partner. The perspectives are excellent for work and career, where there are circumstances favoring you and highlighting your qualities. There will be offers for a better job, a second one or some other collaborations. Not only will you have a good sense of organization and administration, but also enhanced artistic or creative talents. You might feel like bringing a more aesthetic touch to your work or to the office you work in. Financially, there'll be money from extra collaborations or other side sources. With Jupiter in your house of health, in February 2010 you'll enjoy good health and a lot of work capacity. Still, try not to exaggerate with delicacies, because in February 2010 you can put on extra weight more easily than other times! Focus on work! Dare more, stand out more, expand! The atmosphere of February 2010 will be perfect for the Scorpio in love, looking for love or simply for fun and adventure. Stirred by the Venus-Jupiter conjunction, the erotic enthusiasm, the need for love and lust for adventure will be at their peak in February 2010, especially in the second and third decanates. It's not only about finding a new love, but also about discovering new sensations. The joys could also be of a parental nature: satisfactions related to children or to a long-wished-for pregnancy. The ambitious Mars will be watching in your house of career, supported by the perseverant Saturn, and this team is renowned for its efficiency in reaching very difficult aims. Their efforts can be greatly fructified by the instinct of opportunity that Jupiter and Venus will lend you, which instinct will help you seize advantageous opportunities. Talent and creativity will express fully. Financially, you'll be quite well, too. However, undesired expenses could appear. In February 2010 you'll enjoy a very good shape. There will be some extra energy that needs to be used through serious physical activities. The morale will be optimistic, the instincts good, the sexual force on the top. But who knows, maybe you want more than that. In fact, you always want more… Assess the investment for your accommodation very carefully! You might risk getting confused. In February 2010, the stars won't be very clear about helping you with love, but they will do it in an indirect way. The fact that Venus, the planet of love, will be around your ruler, Jupiter, is bound to leave a trail of pheromones around you, felt on a large area by the opposite sex. In February 2010 memories will still be trendy, as well as ex lovers or the exotically romantic atmosphere, with declarations under the moonlight and perfumed notes. You'll have all sorts of wonderful ideas, but not very realistic. It'll be wonderful if your job requires inspiration and creative enthusiasm, but less useful for practical purposes. You'll be doing very well with everything related to real estate, hotels or restaurants. And if you're dreaming of something concerning home or properties, you can now make your dream real. It will be an interesting period for redecorations, real estate or patrimony investments (paintings, antiquities etc.). You've had better, physically speaking, but it won't be too bad either in February 2010. Firstly, because you have a strong body from Mother Nature, and secondly, because you manage to keep your optimism and self-confidence under control no matter the stress and work load. Be careful when choosing and negotiating in the first two decanates in February 2010, when you find it quite difficult to see things clearly. Moreover, this goes for all sectors. February 2010 will spoil you especially if you're into a relationship in its early stages of tenderness and passion, looking for a relationship or just want to flirt and have little affairs. Everything is under the jurisdiction of Venus in your case, and Venus will be in one of the happiest periods over the year. There are a few words to be said about the sexual instinct, which will be stronger in this period, promising sweet alcove delights. February 2010 will be a favorable month to any type of initiative requiring intelligence, communication, action. Intellectual work will be primarily marked by chance. You'll be in luck with exams, tests or negotiations, and commerce and changes will be favored. The money and fortune aspect will be equivocal. There might be favoring opportunities, but connected to something suspicious, and this could result in misunderstandings because of lack of concentration, attention or lucidity. Fortunately, logics will eventually come in and you won't completely lose control. There will be a certain tendency towards irritation or stress, but luckily, it'll be under good psychological control and periodically cancelled by a sense of humor which is more vigorous than ever. Your health will be relatively good in February 2010, but you need to prevent infections and accidents. Learn something new, anything! You'll take in information just like a dry sponge! The first week of February 2010 will be very romantic, and then things will cool down. Some old efforts could now pay off in the form of a concrete and favorable result. Wise solutions will gain ground, and there will be more availability for stability and taking responsibility. Something will strengthen or will be defined in the couple in February 2010. It'll be more complicated if February 2010 catches you between two relationships, one towards its end and one on the point of starting. In this case, you might have some problems. February 2010 will be a good month for collaborations and business. You could get a proposal for a serious, long-term partnership or one that has connections to official institutions. It won't definitely be an easy task, but don't let the difficulties scare you off. The best news will be about money: there will be more of it, probably from a raise or other such things, or from a valuable present. If you're in a conflicting situation, the chance will be on your side. Your innate energy resources are big, so you can get by in this period when there's no much planetary support for you. The only one really supporting you is Saturn, which lends you resistance. And Saturn is your traditional ruler, which is the most important. You haven't been in such a sentimental delight for so long now! In February 2010, stars will favor you throughout everything, but particularly in love. After the first week, in which things will stay at a discrete or secret level or maybe only at the level of wishful thinking, Venus' entering Pisces will reveal everything. Jupiter, the extrovert, daring and adventurous, and Uranus, the open-minded, will incite and help Venus to express herself as wholeheartedly, courageously and imaginatively as possible. Enjoy! There could hardly be more advantageous transits for you! Be happy, it will be one of the best periods of the year, in which success can show up from anywhere. Mars will still be in your house of work and will still keep you under some pressure, but you'll be energetic, in an optimistic mood, full of charisma and initiative, you'll have the advantage of great personal charm... and luck. Socializing will bring useful connections in February 2010 and collaborations and contracts seem to be looking for you. Money and gifts will be drawn to you like iron to a magnet. You'll be in a great shape! Everything seems to be perfect. But don't lower your defense, because Mars can surprise you at any time! Avoid excesses and risks of any kind! You are allowed almost anything, but not everything. Don't impose upon the stars' generosity! Dare and you will succeed, ask and you will be given! Monthly Readings (January)It won't be the most harmonious sector for Aries in January 2010, although it promises to be quite “hot”. In the first twenty days, Venus in Capricorn seems to be too moody to be sentimentally comfortable. Moreover, it can prove to be tense and rather vulnerable to the bad influences of the Saturn-Pluto square. You need to wind down! Relaxation will be beneficial to sexual fulfillment as well, considering that retrograde Mars in your house of eroticism can generate frustration, inhibition or other such problems. The last ten days of January 2010 will be much more favorable. With the Sun in your house of accomplishments, January 2010 makes it reasonable for you to hope for a positive evolution. There'll be opportunities but it's important that you speculate them wisely, especially since retrograde Mercury, located in the same sector, is not always a wise adviser. Maintaining good relationships with collaborators, authorities and superiors is of great importance. Beware that papers, communication, editing, calculations and negotiations will also play an important part. Money will be Venus' concern – and it will cope with this responsibility fairly well! With retrograde Mercury (the ruler of your house of health), in the first half of January 2010 it'll be advisable to take better care of your health, to avoid overdoing it and to stay away from stress. Have as much rest as you can! It's not at all a waste of time, but a means for you to keep your engines in a good functioning mode, capable of efficiency. Because Mars, the ruler of Aries, will also be retrograde, it's compulsory that you exercise, to use the disharmonious excess of energy. Don't rush into anything, because a wrong decision could compromise success! Things aren't going exactly the way you'd like them to. The ruler of your house of couples (Mars) and the one of sexuality (Mercury) will both be in retrograde movement – Mars all throughout January 2010, and Mercury until January 15th. You'll therefore deal with obstacles, delays, inadvertencies or other complications coming from a malfunction of the relationship. But there are situations in which retrogradation isn't harmful: the ones when past love stories come back to attention or they are given another chance or when things left unsolved get clarified. In the first twenty days of January 2010, distance can become relevant to work and success, in the shape of business trips or long-distance collaborations. Another possibility is that you'll study more complicated or more specialized things, have contact with university or cultural environments, different publications or publishing houses. It's not exactly easy, but it's necessary. The greatest satisfactions are foreshadowed for the last ten days, due probably to a promotion or another type of marking out. Be careful about money in the first half of January 2010! The health will need monitoring. Your body is no longer as strong as you knew it was, and stress and the household and family problems will undermine your good mood, make you tired and eat up your energy. Take care of yourself and if something goes wrong, go to the doctor's immediately! Stick to priorities and organize your agenda well! Avoid family conflicts! Jupiter, the ruler of Gemini's house of couples, will divide January into two periods: until January 18th, the climate will be similar to the one in 2009, and after January 18th, once Jupiter enters its exaltation sign, you'll gradually start feeling a change (hopefully, for the better) of rhythm, perspective and even chance! So, don't worry in case you won't be very busy or your activity won't be too satisfying until January 18th 2010. The Sun, Venus and Mercury (the ruler of Gemini) in Capricorn will speak about money, business, investments or material advantages that will come from a different source to the monthly paycheck. The lack of some financial implications will leave space to other ways of expression for the planet transits, namely through a risk of crisis or anxiety. The research on hidden, mysterious or taboo things will either favor you or reveal completely special information. The first eighteen days of January 2010 can be complicated. But be happy, because on the 18th January Jupiter will enter your house of career, promising success and expansion for 2010. You won't enjoy an overwhelming vitality, but at least you can rely on good physical resistance. What needs to be watched is the nervous equilibrium (don't overdo it intellectually, take magnesium, lecithin, etc.!) and the prudence during trips and when handling sharp, hot or dangerous objects. Prudence in everything until January 15th 2010, while Mercury, the ruler of your sign, is retrograde! Oh, relationships! All your interest will be focused on love, marriage, friendship or other social interactions. You'll reflect yourself in the others, you'll act together with the others or for the others. With Venus and the Sun in your house of couples, the thirst for love will be enormous and you'll exert strong sex-appeal to the opposite sex. That does not rule out though a certain amount of stress that can come either by means of faulty communication or some financial misunderstandings. In love or at home, the environment will stay rather tense… A lot will be going on around collaborations and contracts, the area in which unexpected evolutions, novelty and surprises can come along. It'd be more prudent not to make strong commitments before the second half of January 2010 unless you've analyzed the implications very carefully (or you've asked for advice from somebody competent in the matter) or it's about an older initiative. Financially, with retrograde Mars in the house of money, the present decisions can be made a bit too soon and can have important consequences – so be careful! You won't have great planetary support, so you'd better use your physical strength wisely and protect yourself as much as you can against nervous tension. Avoid stress, tension and worries, get some rest, eat healthily! Every now and then, it wouldn't hurt if you indulged yourself in small pleasures that could raise your morale. The last decade will provide a better shape. Make sure you understand exactly what the other means and that, in their turn, the other understands your message correctly! Although it has started the retrogradation movement, Mars in Leo still has enough resources at a passionate and erotic level. As it is its last period in your house of couples, Jupiter will still be thirsty for love in the first twenty days of January 2010; consequently, its place in your house of couples will be taken by Venus and the Sun. To sum up, January 2010 can be very active relationally speaking but the activity will be rather stormy, and the events can go in any direction. Therefore – show much diplomacy, please! With retrograde Mars in Leo, it's possible that you'll experience some inhibition at the energetic or action level. Still, this position allows some old initiatives to be retaken, as well as some unsettled or unfinished conflicts or fights to get into attention again. A lot of work, many tasks, much stress. Financially, the first half of January 2010 can be rather annoying. Take it easy! Retrograde Mars in Leo can manifest either through badly managed actions, restlessness or irritation, either through inactivity, inertia, incapacity to mobilize. Try not to push it and act prudently because there's a certain predisposition towards accidents, acute diseases, infections and inflammations! Much exercise is recommended. Be careful what you do with papers, documents, files; what you say, write or sign and how you understand what you are told at work or about issues of a medical nature! The planetary agglomeration in Capricorn will turn your senses upside down and will stir your hormones up making them cry for adventure, love and pleasure. Don't pretend you can't hear them and don't let your reason take over! It'd be wrong of you to hope for reason in the first two weeks of January 2010, while Mercury is retrograde. Rely on instincts and you won't be wrong! On the other hand, beware of hidden perils, protect yourself and be discrete! Even if you're not in the spotlight, chance will be on your side. You'll benefit from favorable circumstances, you'll be the right person in the right place at the right time and you'll do a good job promoting your image, talent, intelligence, competence, and outcome. Things at work will be excellent in the last week of January 2010, when your merits are given credit and even financially rewarded. As for the rest, money won't flood in, so it'd be wise if you used your resources moderately. You'll enjoy an enviable tonus, both physically, and psychically. Energy and good mood will accompany you all throughout January 2010. In theory, there'll be nothing to be afraid of; however it wouldn't hurt if you guarded yourself. With retrograde Mars in your house of hidden dangers, you can never know. Dare display your qualities and praise them with no reserve! Aroused by the energizing aspects Mars makes – with Jupiter first and then with the Sun and Venus that is crossing your house of Eros – love will have an important say in January 2010 especially in its passionate, sexual aspect. The new love stories, the burning feelings and the adventurous affairs will have more strength than older, steady relationships for which excitement is not what it used to be anymore. The latter ones might end up being on the rocks, especially since they'll be coordinated by Mars, which is now retrograde. Your accommodation, the real estates and the patrimony possessions will be at the top of the preoccupations in the first three weeks of January 2010. The promotion and representation initiatives will put you at an advantage all the month, but especially in the last week which, as a matter of fact, seems to be the luckiest, the most productive and satisfying professionally speaking. Group actions will entertain, but they could become troublesome at one point. It's possible that you'll concentrate again on an older, postponed, interrupted or abandoned project. As far as money is concerned, some surprises are possible. There'll be no reasons to worry about. You might have to cope with more stress, especially in the first three weeks of January 2010, but this will not take its toll on health. However, you should try to avoid excesses and start eating lighter food, to prevent over soliciting the hepatic-biliary apparatus, high cholesterol or high blood pressure, problems that Jupiter can bring upon you in your house of health in 2010, unless you're careful. Handle the things in the house gently and be patient with the members of the family. Love whispers, romantic notes, strolls under the moonlight, or more sensibly, private conversations face to face or over the phone, mails and messages, walks in the city or out of the city at the weekend – they will all have a direct implication in the couple life in the first three weeks of January 2010. It's possible that you'll tend to rationalize feelings and attractions too much. Fortunately, on January 18th 2010 Jupiter will enter Pisces, seriously tipping the scales in favor of passion and eroticism not only for the last decade, but for all the year. January 2010 will be a dynamic month, marked by a lot of procedures, trips, discussions and meetings. There'll be a completely special interest in career and status but retrograde Mars can oppose some of your initiatives, can cause difficulties with superiors and can also – attention! – affect reputation. It's important that you stay within the limits of discipline and that you pay attention to what you say, write, sign. Financially, you'll be ok, but you'll soon be very well. Your shape will entirely depend on retrograde Mars, which is not only the master of your sign but also of your house of health. It's time you stopped pushing it and have some medical tests run on you, regardless how well you think you are. After all, why not have the yearly health check right now? Be careful when traveling, when on foot or by car! Remember that sometimes it's better to be kind and tolerant! Relationships (and not only the couple ones) can have a rather strange development in the first half of January 2010, while Mercury is retrograde. At the same time, it's not excluded that old passions will arouse again or at least you'll get news about them. Sexually too, things seem to be different from before. As the master of your house of eroticism, retrograde Mars can be strangely moody and lustful. All in all, you can expect a stranger month as regards love. Although, theoretically, you're more motivated by the spirit than by material things, and by glory more than by money, time has come for you to take a closer look at your financial situation. Many things are now being measured by the scale of value, profit and profitability, and your accounts might undergo important changes. Plan your expenses carefully and don't waste! If you have some studying to do or an exam to sit, strive for it! Neither too, nor very. It'll be less great in the beginning of January 2010, but a bit better in the last week. It's still the last week that is at danger regarding accidents. Don't take risks, don't dare too much! If you're into financial speculations, gambling or other such money-losing activities, give it up! With Venus (the planet of love) in Capricorn, in the first three weeks in January 2010 you'll be at an advantage: you'll become sexier, you'll attract the opposite sex, you'll have higher affective availability and, more briefly, more luck in love. Venus will urge you to have flirts and will provide more opportunities to start a new affair. It's still Venus that will significantly enhance your libido or interest in erotic experiments (because it governs your house of sexuality). January 2010 will be an active month, with important potential to accomplish things. Even if the dissonant aspect between Saturn and Pluto tries to throw obstacles in your way and even if retrograde Mercury in Capricorn is not always a good adviser, the Sun's shininess and the Venus' glitters will shed light on your sign and will allow money, love and success to find you. But try not to let money go away! You'll be in shape: the Sun in Capricorn will lend you vitality, and Venus will ensure a great morale. But (because there's a but) if you were born at the beginning of the sign (in December), Pluto's conjunction with your natal Sun might try to cause problems, so be prudent! Pay special attention to communication in the first part of the month to avoid misunderstandings! Located in the sector of couples, Mars will be very involved, very passionate, but it can also be impatient, irritated and quarrelsome. There's nothing you can demand from it, since it'll be in a bad mood because of the retrogradation. It can cause problems in love, especially since in the first half of January 2010 it'll get help from Mercury too, which will behave abnormally about desire and sexuality. However, there's the chance of reunions and make-ups. The last week of January 2010 will be favorable to love from all points of view. You'll be active, but it'll mostly be by force of inertia. With the Sun carefully hidden in the previous sign, no initiatives are foreseen in the first three weeks of January 2010. You'll be in a germinating period, conceiving new ideas and projects. Retrograde Mars in your house of relationships could interfere with your collaborations and contracts, or it could over solicit you in this regard. The last week of January 2010 promises success, and Jupiter's entering Pisces allows expectations for above-average income in 2010. You can hope for Jupiter's moral support and protection in the first three weeks of January 2010, considering that it'll only be for a short period in Aquarius from now. That is exactly for as long as the other planets are in indifferent or opponent positions. Still, it's better for you to avoid conflicting situations, to watch your health and say no to addictions and excesses. Make an effort and behave more diplomatically! If you've seen Arizona Dream, you probably remember how Goran Bregovich's song goes: “The fish knows EVERYTHING”. Similarly, as a real Pisces that you are, you know everything, including that adventure is in the air. The adventure that will overwhelm you and throw you in the whirl of absolute passion. Whether it comes in January 2010 or later, it doesn't really matter. You know it'll come in 2010, you nurture yourself from the preceding vibrations and you're always ready to go for it. In January, for example, it might appeal to you in a reunion, among friends or in any other place where more people gather with shared passions or interests. The most evident developments of January 2010 will take place in the area of work, where there'll be hard work, but stress, debts or relapses are to be expected, and also in the area of collective activity, supporters and popularity, where chance will be on your side and there'll be favorable circumstances. Anyway, success will depend on the way you decide how to deal your cards. It's important that you closely examine the ratio work-money, to get an idea of the profitability or the measures needed for its improvement. As for the rest, enjoy yourself: Jupiter will enter your sign on the 18th! Retrograde Mars is strongly related to the area of health, too. January 2010 will be a good period for restarting some investments or treatments, reevaluations or corrections. It's not at all recommended to ignore the signals of your body, the symptoms of an ailment. If you feel something goes wrong, even if it seems minor, go to the doctor's immediately! Don't ignore anything, not even the most insignificant cold! It's recommended that you exercise as much as possible and handle instruments and machines of any kind very carefully, because there's an injury risk. Avoid stimulants and don't take risks! Socialize as much as possible! Meet friends that you haven't seen for a long time! |
