The 2025 Annual Forecasts are available for pre-order. Annual Forecasts will be sent via e-mail on January 1st.
Mercury rules communications and everyday routine. It slows down Dec. 21, and goes retrograde five days later. Therefore, wise buyers will purchase cars, trucks, bicycles, computers, and phones BEFORE Dec. 21. Use the next two weeks to get as much done as possible! Delays and snafus will increase shortly afterward. Meanwhile, back in the barracks, Mars will be at the same degree for three weeks from Dec. 10 to Dec. 31. This is like a violin holding a high note for a sustained time, or a CD that's frozen at one spot. Oy! It creates a strong pressure in a particular area for each sign. Mars can help or hinder. It can help you row, or blow you off course. (The question is - why are you out rowing in this weather?)
Romance, love affairs, parties, and social occasions will put you in the swing of things. Cha cha cha! Sports and arts and crafts will flourish. You'll enjoy making, selling, and buying goodies. Playful activities with children will be a big plus. While this social swirl takes place, you want to explore beautiful places, museums, galleries, art shows, and stand around holding a Pinot Noir discussing profound things with fascinating people. ("We saw them at Eagle Beach in Aruba. She's much shorter in real life.") Many will explore educational opportunities. Publishing, the media, medicine, and the law hold promise as well. Romance with someone from another culture might begin. (Time to learn how to say, "My room or yours?" in a few languages.)
You're ready to roll up your sleeves, and deal with nitty-gritty issues right now because tension, chaos, and increased activity at home might be a bit exhausting! Let's face it, you like your home to be orderly, and a source of peace and quiet. Your home is your refuge! No wonder you want to escape somewhere. Nevertheless, your focus continues to be on shared property, inheritances, taxes, debt, and anything that involves your responsibilities to others. You want to sort out loose details here. Good idea! It's very easy to procrastinate about these matters, nevertheless, they don't go away. No matter how much you ignore them. They never take the hint. (Pity.)
You're in the driver's seat. This heavy-duty emphasis from Mars makes you direct and forthright, especially with relatives and siblings. You're gonna say what you mean and mean what you say! (Very handy for actors, teachers, salespeople, writers, and trainers.) A handful of planets now sits directly opposite your sign drawing your attention to partnerships and close friendships. You're giving a lot more thought than usual to these relationships; furthermore, you now have a chance to observe your own style of relating to others. When planets oppose you, they offer you an opportunity to learn more about how you deal with others. Fortunately, fair Venus makes things mutually harmonious.
You're working hard to earn money, because you're working equally as hard to spend it! Go gently with disputes about what you own. You feel very attached to something right now. ("Aaagh! Get it off me! What is that - a leech?") Despite your focus on your cash flow, you're also determined to get better organized. You don't want to be caught unawares. You want to feel that you've got everything covered. You're applying these high standards not only to your job, but also to where you live. (This might not go as far as the floor of your bedroom closet, but you wish it would.) Your health is better now. Some are enjoying the pleasure of small pets, or acquiring new pets. Make the most of this chance to get better organized.
You're working so hard right now, you're a house on fire! The result is you can accomplish an enormous amount. (We're all so proud of you.) However, your determination to achieve will be sidelined by an equal determination to get out and have fun! This is because a handful of planets now urge you to do your own thing. You want to enjoy fun times with children. Go to the theatre, movies, parties, restaurants, and social occasions. Romance is appealing. You'll jump at any chance to dress up and flash your dazzle. Because your physical energy level is high, you can work and party at the same time. (Ever the Leo.) This is a positive time in your life. You will show the world what you can do. "For my next trick, I will take this simple fountain pen and write my full name."
Home, family, your domestic world, and even real estate are absorbing your attention. Family discussions are taking place. Many are dealing with a parent more than usual. Naturally, memories from your childhood are bubbling up. This is certainly the classic time of year when family events stir up nostalgia for the bad old days. (With a few memory shifts you too, can have a happy childhood.) Meanwhile, something is going on behind the scenes. This could be private work you're doing, or you might be working alone a lot. But something is very secret and hush-hush. Hmmm? Some are having a clandestine affair. Oh my.
Group activities demand your attention. Something competitive could be taking place. You might be at odds with someone. Don't let this get you down. Don't try to please everybody. Just do what you want to do. You don't have to fix things; and you don't have to make everybody happy. You have rights, too! Just go with the flow because your daily pace is busy. Short trips, buying and selling, negotiations, plus increased reading, writing and studying keep you hopping. Please note: if you're buying cars, trucks, computers, phones -- do it now -- before December 21. You're in an enormous time of transition from letting go of things, and moving to a whole new sandbox. (Yikes!)
Mars is at high noon in your chart arousing your ambition. You're keen to achieve something, and impress important people. Keep a strong focus on making money right now, in part, because you're full of moneymaking ideas. But also because you're also giving more and more thought to what really matters in life. You don't want to wake up when you're 90, and realize you put your money on the wrong horse. This is a good time to shop for wardrobe items. It's a great time to enjoy fun with friends. Family relationships are warm and cozy. Get together and pay some bills. The family that pays together, stays together.
Travel plans look appealing! You want to broaden your horizons, seek adventure, explore other cultures, and learn something new. Because the Sun and Venus are in your sign, the universe owes you a favour. You can easily attract opportunities and important people to you. Therefore, it's equally easy to pull off what you want to do! This is the one time of year when you have earned the right to do exactly what you want. Be yourself without fear or apology. Recharge your batteries. Put yourself first. This is not being selfish, this is survival. If you don't take care of yourself -- you'll be of no use to anyone!
You have a sense of waiting for something. Mercury and Pluto are in your sign, but the Sun and Venus are lurking in the wings. Until then, continue to strategize what you want your new year to be all about. Don't just go forward willy-nilly and let life happen to you. Take the reins! Make some goals. Disputes about shared property, inheritances, insurance matters, taxes, and debt are likely. Many are forced to deal with the values of others, which requires compromise. While this squabbling is going on, why not have passionate, memorable sex? It's a great way to take your mind off those dusty files and forms. Ya think?
You have to practice patience and tolerance dealing with everyone because fiery Mars is opposing your sign! Mars is confrontational. When it directly opposes your sign, it makes you confrontational as well. From your point of view, others are just annoying. (Well, reality is a relative thing, and relatives are definitely annoying.) Fortunately, you can enjoy good times with friends, groups, clubs, and organizations. Think about your dreams and wishes for the future. This is the best time of year for you to focus on what you hope to achieve. Talk to others about your goals. (But stop if they snicker.)
This is a favouable time with both the Sun and Venus at high noon in your chart. Everyone notices you more than usual, especially bosses, parents, teachers, and VIPs. Furthermore, they think you're great. Venus could attract new romance with someone older, more established, or richer. Many will be asked for your creative input on something. Take advantage of these good vibes. What's happening is you're getting ready for one of the best years of your life -- 2010! That's when you'll be the most blessed sign of all. Since you're psychic, you can feel the good vibes coming down the tube. Nevertheless, keep working because all this hard work is going to pay off!
