Pisces Forecast for 2014

To a Better Year Ahead!
Canada and the US will enjoy an improved financial climate this year as North America moves towards a more solid footing. Family life and especially the rights and care of children will also improve.
Last year Saturn entered Scorpio to stay until September 2015. This means Saturn is now being expressed in a Scorpio style - or to put it another way - the areas that are governed by Scorpio are the ones undergoing strong challenges.
The sign of Scorpio governs sex, secrets, espionage and spying, police detection and criminal activity as well as medicine, plumbing, manufacturing, nuclear fission, television, the military and everything related to death.
Meanwhile the planet Saturn governs all pyramid structures, especially rules and regulations and the government.
When Saturn was last in Scorpio in 1984-86, Indira Gandhi was assassinated, AIDS was discovered, Apple released the first MAC computer, Geraldine Ferraro was the first woman to run as a Vice President running mate, Nintendo was released, the Challenger exploded after take off, the Chernobyl disaster occurred and FOX network began. This same energy will pervade in 2014.
Small wonder we have press coverage about NSA spying on its own citizens as well as other countries, plus security leaks and whistle blowers like Edward Snowden. The year 2014 will continue to focus on crime, ruthless politics and overburdened medical systems, as well as exposing illegal surveillance of the public.
The real-estate market will continue to improve until summer, after which it might settle for awhile. From the summer of 2014 and beyond, we can expect improvements and more activity in the arts and the entertainment world. During this same time, there will be a wonderful boost to the hospitality industry, which is good news for restaurants, hotels, resorts and theme parks.
So it's a bad year for spies and a good year for stand-up comedy. Does this mean funny is out of the bag? No more hidden humour?
I agree with Margaret Mead who said, "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful citizens can change the world; indeed it's the only thing that ever has."
But I also agree with George Carlin who said: "Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups."
Hello 2014!
This is a positive time in your life. You're entering a year with opportunities for vacations and chances to explore your creative talents. You will enrich family relationships and prepare for a time of harvest, which is just a couple of years away. In 1999 and the turn of the millennium, job changes and residential moves created uncertainty. In 2002-03, improvement to your job and your health were followed by solid relationships in 2004. Help from others was supportive in 2005 and by 2007, your reputation started to shine! Now as you enter 2014, it's important to understand that more than other signs, your belief in yourself dictates your success. You are a shape-shifter. You become what you believe is possible. Fellow Piscean Jackie Gleason understood this so well when he said, "If you have it and you know you have it, then you have it. If you have it and don't know you have it, you don't have it. If you don't have it but you think you have it, then you have it."
Mars Attacks!
Every two years Mars is in one sign for about six weeks. Right now Mars is in one sign for eight months! This is a huge focus of sustained energy in one part of your chart and is most unusual. For your sign, this means it will amplify your sex drive. (I kid you not.) Mars is related to your ego, which means you want sexual relations to be transcendent and over the top, which is a lot to expect from another mere mortal. Mars also governs war and aggression, which means you will likely have disputes about shared property, inheritances, taxes, debt or anything that you own jointly with someone else. This also means your values might clash with the values of others. But for sure, you will stand up for your rights and defend your own best interests. In fact, quite fearlessly!
Money - the Second Most Important Thing
Expect opportunities for personal growth and increased wisdom in 2014. Your self-assurance is strong and you have the courage to be yourself. These positive qualities come together now because you're headed for a career peak in about two years. That will be a time when you achieve a cherished dream -- perhaps you will graduate, marry, have a child, get a major promotion, establish your own business or receive accolades and honours. Because you are so close to this, now is the time for final preparation. What further education or training can you get in 2014 to promote your work or enrich your life? Perhaps travel and acquiring more worldly experience will help you to be performance-ready in two years. Isn't that how they define luck? Being ready for opportunities when they arise? Late in 2014 and all of 2015, you will have the best chance in more than a decade to improve your job, or get a better job, or remove nasty conditions at work. (Your boss?) Work that is related to children, professional sports, the hospitality industry (especially travel, vacations, theme parks, cruises and resorts), will flourish. Expect success in the entertainment world as well. Lookin' swell! Life is good.
Love is Chemistry, Sex is Physics
Twaaang! Was that Cupid's arrow I just heard? I think so because love and romance are where things are really blessed for you this year. (Actually so many areas are.) The year 2014 has one of the best influences for love and romance for your sign in 12 years. In part, this is because you feel happy, self-assured and confident. Obviously, these are qualities that attract others as well as improve existing partnerships. You will feel lighthearted, fun-loving, saucy and flirtatious. Because you will have a greater interest in sports, vacations, the arts, the entertainment world and show business as well as restaurants, resorts and hotels - you will encounter many exciting possibilities for new love, or chances to revive an existing relationship. Count on a vacation. Factoid. Some of you will meet someone new through travel or perhaps you will encounter someone from a radically different background or a different culture. This will be thrilling because it will give you a chance to learn more about the world than you ever dreamed possible.

If one person in the family has happy energy, the entire family will benefit. In the same way, if one person is tragically unhappy, the entire family suffers. Your happiness will be high in 2014. Perhaps you are happy because you have chances to explore the arts, or take vacations, or enjoy romance and great sex. You might be happy because your job will improve or you see a time of achievement just a few years away. Whatever the case - your positive energy will promote a positive family feeling for you and others. In addition, your increased self-confidence will help you deal more positively with family members. Granted, disputes about shared property, inheritances and anything that is jointly owned are likely. This could be a fly in the ointment. But at least you will defend yourself and the rights of others.
A Sneak Peek beyond 2014
A time of harvest awaits you in 2015 and this time of culmination will last for several years. It will mark a time of great achievement, but it also can be where you see clearly if something is not working. If this is the case, cut your losses and move on. Without question, your job and career will improve in your immediate future. By 2016, partnerships will be enriched, making this a great year to marry or enter into professional partnerships as well.
Your Pisces Mantra for 2014
"Sometimes we work; sometimes we play. This is my turn for play and pleasure!"
Mercury Retrograde in 2014
Expect delays, lost items and confused communications! Best to finish things, not begin them. These are poor times to buy cars, trucks, bikes, computers, printers and phones.
Dates below are actual retrograde dates and buffer dates. Why? Mercury slows down before it goes retrograde and, likewise, it takes a while to catch up to the degree it was at when it first went retrograde. Use buffer times for big purchases like cars.
| Actual Mercury Retrograde Dates | Buffered Dates (I use this one) |
|---|---|
| Feb. 6 - Feb. 28 | Feb. 2 - Mar. 20 |
| June 7 - July 1 | May 28 - July 16 |
