***** FIRST PART ***** Chapter 1: General characteristics of the year. The external conditions.

Solar Return Ascendant Leo :      This year you will be inclined to express yourself in a more intense and dramatic way. Your authority will increase and you will try to impose your opinions on others and dominate each situation. There is a tendency to call attention to yourself and to exaggerate everything. In no way will you be unnoticed during this period and you will continually search for the approval of the public. Increased energy will impel you to undertake new activities or to work intensely on your projects, which could lead you to the brink of exhaustion. In general, this will be a happy time and you will be in good humor, providing that no one opposes you; otherwise, you may respond in an impatient and sometimes aggressive manner. If by nature you are a timid person, this year will show a great change in your personality and you will fight, more than usual, to attain the place in life that you think you should have. But if you already are a person of strong character, you should remind yourself of this extra forcefulness you feel and avoid falling into situations where your pride and selfishness can get you into trouble.      Your creativity will be notable and it could manifest at all levels. If you have artistic abilities, this is the year to dedicate your time to them, since you will feel a great personal satisfaction in developing your talents. Your personal magnetism is also accentuated during this period, bringing love affairs, conquests and adventures. No doubt you will participate in numerous parties and amusements in general. You also could be attracted to games of chance and can expect a certain amount of luck. There is a possibility of receiving income from some speculative business too, where a certain degree of risk is involved. You will have high physical energy and will enjoy the practice of any sport.      Some people in your environment may feel the effect of your somewhat domineering approach but will not try to inhibit you. This year you will want to start many new projects. You will probably make them public before your next birthday. To avoid tension, you should try not to insist on having your own way with projects and endeavors that you are not directly involved in.      It will be a year of great activity. It is important that you maintain a good balance and that you alternate your activities with periods of rest. You run the risk of over-extending your efforts and arriving at a point of exhaustion. If you have any problems with your heart, you should be especially careful this year. However, in general, a serious illness is not likely due to your strong vitality, fortified by the Sun.      You will be guided more by your feelings than by reason during this time and therefore your romantic encounters are inclined to be less conventional or less durable. If you are in a committed relationship, it would be advisable not to try to dominate your partner as you will probably come on a little too strong. And this could cause a problem in the relationship. If you are single, you will encounter new situations, but they may not be long-lasting.      This is not a good year to resolve unsettled issues from the past or to try to get approval from the public as you may have in previous times as you will tend to be more demanding and revolutionary than normal and may alienate others by your forcefulness. Solar Return MC Taurus:      This is a good year to achieve sound, concrete, and profitable objectives, especially those that were planned in previous years. You will channel and organize your ambitions better, and they will be more realistic, which brings a good possibility of increasing your income. You will probably become more materialistic and worried about status and improving your social position. As a consequence, you may tend to ignore the needs of others. You might not be as emotionally available to your family and friends as you usually are.      This influence favors activity related to finance, administration, business, and organization. If you have some artistic ability, you may find a way to profit from your artistic interests, particularly in areas such as ceramics, handiwork, or crafts. You will want to use your talents, if possible, to make money. This could be a year of concrete, material success, where perseverance and attention to specifics can pay off.      At the same time you could experience some tension in your home during this period. There could be frequent disagreements or fights and a certain degree of struggle for power that will be difficult to resolve. It is advisable to attempt to smooth things out by talking things over and thereby coming to some mutual agreement. Jealousy and old grievances could be the cause of tension. Guard against bringing people into your home who you know could cause trouble between you and your loved ones.

Chapter 2: Astrological influence of your personality.

Sun in 11th house:      This solar influence increases your social life, and your circle of friends should widen. These people will have a positive influence on you. Existing friendships will also be strengthened and will be a great support to you during this year.      You will feel a desire to join groups and participate in group activities with people who have the same interests. You will find yourself depending on friends to help you carry out your projects and plans. However, if there are other indications negating this, you will find that friends you counted on might not be there for you as you had hoped. Or you might find that the groups you have joined and are participating in are actually not positive influences but are wasting your time with useless activity.      You will develop new goals and objectives during this year. You will also be more idealistic. You will have increased understanding of those you work and play with. The first half of the year will be more a time for thinking and planning, while during the second half you will begin to activate and carry out your goals.      A special friend's offer of support and dedication may be instrumental in the achievement of your goals. Sun sesquiquadrate Moon:      Minor problems and conflicts in your home could alter the peace during this year. There is a possibility that problems from the past that haven't been resolved yet will resurface. You can't expect much support from your family in carrying out your plans.      It also is possible that you will have moments of doubt and indecision. You will be less decisive and practical, and you will tend to be more influenced by your feelings and emotions. Sun semisquare Venus:      You may encounter, and have to deal with, some unresolved romantic problems from the past. Stay calm and develop a positive attitude toward your partner, as well as your social life in general. The irritations and displeasures caused by others could be the reflection of your own inner uneasiness. This aspect generates a desire for comfort and pleasure, which could lead to disruptions in your routine, followed by a possible loss of income. Do your best to control these yearnings and search for a creative solution for your inner dissatisfaction. Sun quincunx Mars:      There is a strong tendency to be aggressive and to lose your patience easily. Problems you may have overlooked in the past could arise and hinder you in your present business activity. It will be necessary to put your life in order so that you can have a calmer year.      This aspect can also cause you to be careless, thereby making you subject to accidents, blows, falls or burns. Be alert and use caution. These impulsive and rash actions will be your worst enemy. You could also very easily get entangled in discussions or arguments with others, which might lead to fights or quarrels that will be difficult to reconcile.      In order to have a good year, you should keep physically active. Practice some sport or gymnastics, which will use up some of your excess physical energy and will break up your usual daily routine. Sun semisextile Asc:      You will be very dynamic, alert, and positive during this time. You will express yourself strongly, thereby making a very solid impression on others. You will probably have a big financial improvement and could receive the support of people in higher positions.      This year's success will primarily be due to the trust you have in yourself and the strength you put into achieving your own goals.

Chapter 3: The emotional world.

Solar Return Moon in Pisces :      During this time you will be more emotionally intense, romantic, and dreamy. Your sensitivity will increase and you will be attracted to the world of feelings. Your imagination will also increase considerably, which could bring true moments of poetic or musical inspiration. If you have artistic inclinations, this influence will inspire you to create many new works. If you are not artistic, you will have new experiences of an emotional nature.      You will also be very sensitive to issues or problems centering around your home, especially those involving women. You will have a helpful attitude toward situations that come up and will even be willing to make some kind of sacrifice of yourself in order to restore harmony among your friends and loved ones.      It is important that you have contact with nature during this time, especially with places near water because it will help you to discharge your negative emotions and find inner peace.      Your desire to give and receive love will be increased. If you are involved with someone and don't receive the amount of affection you need, you may end up in another similar relationship where your emotional needs would be satisfied. If you don't have anyone special in your life at this time, you will search until you find someone. This astrological influence causes you to be more idealistic than usual. You probably won't see the people you are associated with too clearly or realistically and could, consequently, be easily deceived. Try to be objective and analyze the situations before you make any important decision. If you do not do this, you may find yourself in a world of emotional chaos.      Your sensitivity also will increase and you could easily feel hurt by someone for no apparent reason. To ease the pain and discomfort, you could search for a means of escape, such as alcohol, cigarettes, drugs, or tranquilizers. Or you may escape through sleeping a lot. It is especially important to maintain your objectivity and not let your emotions get out of hand. Solar Return Moon in 7th house:      This year will bring a change in your life. If you are not involved in a relationship, you will be inclined to find someone this year. If you are already in a good relationship, you will experience important changes in your daily routine. The kind of changes will be determined by aspects to the Moon, as described in the following paragraphs. This could be the year you commit yourself to a long-term relationship.      You should be careful in the decisions you make because you will be inclined to sudden and capricious actions which could hurt your relationship in some way. Your life and actions could be more public this year. Guard against giving others a reason to gossip about you. . This astrological influence will bring both positive and negative responses from others.      On the other hand, you will receive much support from the women in your life. Moon conjunction Uranus:      You will become very impulsive, impatient, and restless during this year. You will search for a break in your routine and will oppose situations that limit your freedom. Your emotions will be very unpredictable, fickle, and changeable. It will be very difficult for you to remain still, in one place, for any length of time. You long for change, movement, and new ideas. If by nature you are inclined to be nervous, you should search for ways to relieve your anxiety; otherwise you could suffer from nervous exhaustion. If you are a calm person, you will surprise others with the expression of your new ideas and your changing emotions.      On the romantic side, you will search for unusual relationships or those with special characteristics. You will be very attracted to taking risks and associating with people you would never have considered before. This could cause scandal in your family and you will receive serious criticism. However, during this time, you will have the strength and courage to confront them. It seems that opposition to your actions makes you want to continue doing it even more.      One of the key words for this period is "freedom". You won't allow anybody and anything to stop you or slow you down.      Due to the increased tension this year, your digestive system could suffer. It is advisable that you maintain a light, healthy diet that is good for the digestive process, avoid eating meat and fatty or fried food as much as possible. and keep physically active. Moon square Venus:      You will have a strong desire for pleasure and harmony this year, but will not always be able to achieve it. The search for enjoyment could cause a degree of emotional and financial imbalance for you. Control your spending; otherwise, you will acquire unnecessary debts. There is a tendency to act on a whim without thinking first during this time.      You could become more protective than usual toward your loved ones, which could lead to your attempting to control their actions or to become too possessive. Watch out for a tendency toward uncalled-for jealousy and control.      You could also become attached to certain emotions, memories, or relationships from your past that could cause a problem in your present relationships. Your emotions will be intense but not very stable this year which could lead to difficulties and undesired changes in these current associations. If you don't have a steady partner, you will probably seek out more than one new relationship this year, none of which will be serious or on solid ground.      You should select your friendships carefully. Otherwise, you will be subject to gossip or public scandal because of the places or people you associate with. Moon trine Mercury:      Your emotions and your rational mind will be in balance. Your thinking will be influenced by your emotions, but at the same time, you will have the ability to make logical conclusions. Your mind will be very keen and alert. Therefore, any type of study or language learning would be very favorable. You will also be able to listen to the problems of others with sensitivity and understanding and be willing to offer them very valuable help.      If you have any interest in writing professionally, you will find this to be a good year for it. Or, if you are not a writer, you will at least be able to keep your personal and business correspondence up to date. Communication in general will be favored and you will be able to speak your mind easily.      This influence increases your romantic inclinations and would be a good time to tell your partner and other loved ones in your home how much you care for them.      This astrological aspect is extremely favorable for business relationships.
