The 2025 Annual Forecasts are available for pre-order. Annual Forecasts will be sent via e-mail on January 1st.
The weekly column below will discuss the impact of the shift of the Sun in Taurus to Sun in Gemini. In a completely different vein (other arm), I want to console those people who were born: 1935-1938 and 1965-1967 and 1994-96. What is happening is that Neptune is opposite the Saturn in your chart, which is discouraging and confusing! It makes you feel lost, depressed, fearful and disoriented. Neptune will even alter your perception of reality. You might think some things are important - and they're not. You might think others things are unimportant - and they are. It's vital to know that by 2018, these fears will dissolve. At that time, you will feel the mist lifting and you will be able to see where you want to go. Therefore, have hope! (Hope is the feeling you have that the feeling you have isn't permanent.)
Tie your hat on because the next four weeks will sweep you off your feet! Your daily pace will accelerate with a jam-packed schedule of short trips, errands, visits to siblings and relatives plus increased time spent writing, studying and reading. You will be keen to enlighten others with your point of view, which makes this a strong time for those who sell, market, teach, act and write for a living. If you can travel or take a vacation, this will satisfy your restless urges. Now is the time to look at casual relationships that are actually important to you. Basically, your focus will be on your immediate environment - friends, neighbours and relatives plus your daily routine. Chop chop!
Money, money, money! As I've said before, you are the financial wizard of the zodiac. You're good with money! In fact, many of you work in banking. In the next four to five weeks, you will ponder your values in life, especially in terms of money and movable property. Take a realistic look at how you handle your possessions. Do you own them or do they own you? After all, your possessions are supposed to make your life easier, not the other way around. Some of you might make a big purchase during this time and want to show it off to others. Basically, in the next month, learn how to use what you own to establish greater control of your world. Mend, repair and take care of what needs to be done so that you feel proud!
This week the Sun enters your sign to stay for the next four weeks. Because the Sun is your source of energy, this is your chance to recharge your batteries for the rest of the year! The Sun in your sign is also an indication that you will attract important people to you as well as favourable circumstances. It's totally okay to put yourself first without any qualms because yes, the month ahead is all about you! And if you don't take care of yourself, you will be of no use to anyone. Because you will project yourself on to others with more force and enthusiasm, you will make a positive impression on everyone! Connect the dots. If you easily impress others, obviously, this is a time to promote your own agenda and ask for what you want. ("I want a pony and I want to be a ballerina.")
For the next four weeks, the Sun will be "hidden" in your chart. By extension, this means that you will seek ways to hide during this time. You might choose to work alone or behind the scenes. You might shun invitations to busy affairs not because you're being antisocial but because you prefer to withdraw from the hubbub going on around you. This is totally appropriate. In addition, because your birthday is a month away, this means your personal year is drawing to an end. Why not use these moments of seclusion to strategize what you want your new year to be all about? You will benefit by setting some goals with deadlines because that is the most effective way to achieve your hopes and dreams. It's your choice: You can either steer your life or just respond to what happens around you through Management by Crisis.
Your popularity rating will soar in the next four weeks because the Sun will energize the part of your chart relating to friendships, casual relationships and anything to do with clubs, groups, classes and organizations. This window of time will be ideal to work with and cooperate with other people. All group efforts will reward you, which is why you should socialize extensively. You can use this time to establish who you are with others. You can also learn how to fit in with a group, and at the same time, maintain your integrity. Because your idealism will be aroused, many of you will become involved in charitable organizations and efforts to make the world a better place, especially for those who are less fortunate. You can do this because Leos are leaders!
For the next four weeks, the Sun will be at the top of your chart, which is an indication that you will be high viz., especially in the eyes of authority figures like bosses, parents, teachers, VIPs and the police. Fortunately, the light that shines on you will be flattering, which means they will see you in a favourable way. (Thank heavens!) Obviously, you can use this to your advantage. Put your best foot forward and ask for what you want because you will probably get it. However, do not pretend to be something other than what you are because the truth will come out eventually. Trust in your own good karma. Many of you will be more involved with a parent more than usual. Now is the time to examine your life as a whole to see if you're going in the direction you want.
Do whatever you can in the next four weeks to broaden your horizons and your experience of the world. The obvious choice would be travel. Break free of your daily routine and give yourself a change of scenery! Talk to people from different backgrounds. Learn something new and be open to adventure. Many of you will take a new course of study or a new hobby, which is a great idea. Some of you will be more involved in metaphysical, religious and spiritual journeys. The main thing to keep in mind is that you have to expand your world and get out of your velvet rut. Albert Einstein said, "Have the courage to take your own thoughts seriously, for they will shape you."
You're looking at an intense four weeks ahead. One reason for this intense time is that you will be more in touch with aspects of yourself that you often ignore. (Does this room make me look fat?) You will take things more seriously because you want to experience life on a feeling level, not just an intellectual understanding. Not only will you have an increased focus on psychological self inquiry, you will have a greater focus on shared property, inheritances, finances and anything that is jointly held. You might also attract someone powerful to you who makes you question things. (Why am I paying so much for my data package?) No, the questions you have will be more profound than that. (Why is your data package cheaper than mine!)
During the next four to five weeks, the Sun will be opposite your sign, which means it will be as far away from you as it gets all year. Since the Sun is your source of energy, this means you will feel more tired. Obviously, more sleep in the next five weeks is the answer. (But what was the question?) Another thing this oppositional Sun will do is force you to study partnerships and your closest one-to-one relationships. You will question which relationships do or do not fulfil your needs. Remember: For a successful relationship, you must be as good for your partner as he or she is for you. In the next four weeks, experts will help you as well - lawyers, doctors, psychologists, counsellors or astrologers. This is not the time to go it alone. Form working units with others to get things done.
You are a hard-working sign because your philosophy is, "No pain, no gain." In the month ahead, you will strive to work as efficiently and effectively as you can because you want top production! More specifically, you want the most bang for your buck when it comes to putting out your effort. Yes, you want results! As you set these high standards for yourself, by extrapolation, they will also apply to you personally - especially your health. That's why the next four weeks are a good time to explore anything that boosts your energy and benefits your body. After all, if you take care of it - it will take care of you. An old Arabian proverb says, "He who has health has hope, and he who has hope has everything."
Beginning this week, you are entering a 4-5 week window of time that might be the most playful time of the year for you! You want to get out and have a good time. You will feel lighthearted, playful and flirtatious. Sports events, social excursions and fun times with children will please you. Needless to say, this is an excellent time to slip away on a vacation. You will also enjoy the arts - plays, musical performances, the theatre etc. Basically, the next four weeks are the time for you to be yourself without fear or apology. Like Popeye, you will face the world confidently knowing, "I yam what I yam!" Some of you will enter a new romance with someone fun-loving and playful.
For different reasons, according to the details of your life, your focus will now turn to home, family and your private world during the next four weeks. For starters, you will want to hang out at home more than usual. You want to feel thumb-sucking cozy among familiar surroundings. This is why you will cocoon at home in an effort to escape the busy insanity of the world around you. Family reunions and family plans will be important. But this will also be a time where you will do some psychological self evaluation, especially as you ponder your role in the family and the subtleties of the relationships you have with each family member. Oy vey.
