| Uranus and Pluto orbit a long way out in the solar system, the former at nineteen times further from the Sun than us and the latter amazingly, at over twice this distance. Uranus takes a good lifetime to circuit the zodiac while Pluto is slower by a factor of three, so any alignment between these two proves lengthy and infrequent. For the past five years Pluto in Capricorn has been at right angles to Uranus in your sign, with exactitude occurring seven times between 2012 and 2015. As the third direct hit takes place this month, it’s your struggle to make an impression that is uppermost, while avoiding unwanted opposition… |

| The annular solar eclipse in May is the first of two that will grace your sign during this year and the next. Annular eclipses occur because the Moon appears smaller when slightly further away from the Earth and so cannot completely obscure the Sun, leaving a bright ring called the annulus on display. You’ll see this best from the South Pacific, although northern Australia gets a grandstand view. Such an event is certain to have you thinking about what you are doing and where you’re heading with your life. In the end, it comes down to whatever counts, with others playing a bigger role than maybe you acknowledged lately… |

| Jupiter has occupied your sign since June of 2012. Its stay has seen enormous growth, on several levels including those where you haven’t had the chance to appreciate the consequences yet. Jupiter’s stay has almost concluded and late next month it departs for another circuit of the heavens, yet the intervening period is far from quiet, as several planets highlight your constellation and form one splendid alignment after the next. The full import of this you probably won’t realise until the final days of May, but there is a heap of good fortune coming your way. Enjoy it and make the most of it, it is nothing you don’t deserve… |

| By nature you are shy and rather retiring, but seeing how everybody else carries on you can’t help but feel sometimes anyhow, you have taken a back seat for too long. Probably, you are basically correct and do have a point, but most likely this is part of the big scheme of things with a recognisable purpose in the end. The cycle from beginning to finish, seed to fruit and back again, occurs consistently throughout creation. As you strive for those goals you have set for yourself, understand why you believe they are so important. Late next month sees the initiation of a new growth sequence and you ought to get prepared… |

| A solar eclipse puts the spotlight on your ambitions and career interests. If you have never much cared about your professional affairs then maybe this is the moment to start, since it is one constructive and worthwhile way to attract the kind of appreciation you desire and in essence thrive upon. One thing is a definite though, you can’t force a square peg into a round hole, not without a huge amount of damage to both sides of this equation in the process. You won’t be happy in a menial position or conversely, in a job you hate simply for the status. Working for yourself is one way, you can ensure the best of both worlds… |

| august 23 - september 22 | |
| Review recent developments and what these have taught you, at this opportune juncture for reflection. Then consider how directly or informally, you ought to merge these pearls of wisdom into your overall approach and attitude heading forwards. You are keen to make a contribution both at work and from a wider point of view, so to achieve this you must cooperate within the framework of other people’s needs and expectations. Success comes with striking the balance between promoting your personal abilities and unique range of skills, while letting others know you are just like them and appreciate their sensibilities… |

| september 23 - october 22 | |
| Increasing, the desire to focus on your personal needs is clear. Taking others into account is wonderful whenever you can, but you will run yourself ragged trying to second guess what they want from you and can create a bunch of misery for yourself, by safeguarding their welfare to your personal detriment. You aren’t the type to act arrogantly or selfishly, but when you’ve tried and still face the same difficulties, no one would think any the less of you if you absented yourself temporarily from this situation. A weekend break or short holiday does the trick, somewhere you are unlikely to encounter the same old anxieties… |

| Your partnership affairs take centre stage with a solar eclipse in your opposite sign, close on the heels of the lunar eclipse highlighting your constellation last month. The ancients regarded eclipses with awe and wonder, but such phenomena seemed more infrequent then without any global perspective. You have nothing to fear from these upcoming events that continue what has started, overtly in most instances and on a subliminal level otherwise. If you are single the urge to share your life with another, seems a more attractive proposition. If you are already in a committed association, to formalise your link seems likely… |

sagittarius |
| november 22 - december 21 | |
| Sometimes your responsibilities appear overwhelming and you start looking around for an escape route. But you never were cut out for drudgery, since you need to feel your life is a journey that is leading somewhere good. Without the promise of fresh vistas ahead, whether this means somewhere you’ve never visited or a serenity you intend to cultivate, you soon start feeling claustrophobic and disconsolate, as you long for the days when you could greet the sunrise with a smile. If it wasn’t all on your shoulders life wouldn’t seem so bad, but those who should help prove unwilling, to uphold their part of the bargain. |

| december 22 - january 19 | |
| Pluto in your sign and Uranus in Aries form the third exact right angle in a series of seven, characterising the three years between June 2012 and March 2015 especially, but that will colour a period three times this length from 2008 onwards. This has caused you to acknowledge the truth of plenty that previously you'd have dismissed as irrelevant and impractical, so you have changed enormously and although you still maintain certain principles from before, it grows apparent that in time even these mainstays must alter. You could use some stability where you live, but that seems to be furthest from everybody’s mind… |

| january 20 - february 18 | |
| Planets in Gemini encourage you to look beyond the confines of your family and the limitations of your domestic boundaries. Where you believe these have curtailed your freedom you are keener than ever to escape from their clutches, especially when it comes to the demands of other family members. Say for example your parents are infirm or your children specialise in one ultimatum after another. You owe it to yourself to live your life, to develop a career you can be proud about, to enjoy successful friendships and to experience romance, with the scope for sundry leisure pursuits that maybe have no other significance. |

| Referred pain is a phenomenon that sees discomfort occur at a distance from an injury. A heart attack is one extreme example because pain is felt in the jaw, arms or shoulders rather than the chest, where the actual damage happens. Similarly, once there are problems, the root cause is not always obvious. You may blame the neighbourhood for problems at home, when if it wasn’t for these factors acting as a focus for your dissatisfaction, you could no longer ignore their real origins. Try to make decisions on your own judgement this month, rather than being swayed by the vagaries of a situation that needs time to clarify. | |
