Your Year at a Glance: what's the unique focus of your year ahead, specifically from a romantic point of view? This handy bar graph reveals your personal themes for the coming twelve months.
Each year marks a new and different phase of your life. What are your goals for this year? What would you like to learn or accomplish? What opportunities will arise for you this year, at work or in love? Your Solar Return report answers these questions more in depth, but this bar graph provides a quick view into the focus of your next year of life.
Based on that snapshot of the planets' positions at the exact moment of your Solar Return, the graph reveals the themes of your very own New Year. The more heavily featured planets in your Solar Return chart are the ones that will figure large over the next year. If Mercury makes lots of aspects with other planets, for example, this will be a big year for you in terms of communication and education. You might write a book or go back to school. If Venus makes several significant aspects, this could be a big year for you in love!
In astrology, the Sun reflects your core self, including your own sense of self as well as recognition and appreciation from others. Recognition, after all, can come from formal, outside sources, such as a raise at work or a trophy for winning the game; from more intimate outside sources, such as your friends or partner...

Mercury represents your intellect, the way you process information, and your interest in learning, teaching and communicating. Schoolwork, reading, writing, debates, lectures and conversations all fall within Mercury's domain.

Saturn acts as your conscience and your stern taskmaster. This planet reminds you that you'd better stop goofing off, start working hard and take care of those responsibilities. If your Saturn line is...Short: You won't feel hemmed in this year by duties or self-discipline. Instead, you've got the freedom you need to go where... Read more
On your birthday, everyone wishes you a wonderful year ahead. But what's it really going to be like? It can't all be a barrel of monkeys. We've created these meters to give you that at-a-glance view you need of your year ahead.
The Stress meter measures the potential for obstacles in the coming year. Whether it's one trouble spot after another or you've got a free ticket to Easy Street, remember that every hurdle life tosses up in your path presents a lesson. That's what life is all about -- jumping through hoops, growing and learning.
The Relaxation meter measures the easy times ahead -- those days and weeks when you'll have a smile on your face and a spring in your step regardless of what's going on around you. Though you may think you want a high Relaxation score and a low Stress one, it's actually best if you come out somewhere in the middle on both meters. That way, your year will be fun, interesting and complex -- just like you!... Read more
7-10: One thing after another and no end in sight
4-6: Some bumps on the road, but nothing you can't handle
0-3: Living on Easy Street!
7-10: Even when life gets hectic, you still know how to chill
4-6: You'll work hard and play hard too
0-3: Schedule a massage - you're going to need it!
Sun conjunct Mercury
Communication is about to become a major part of your life, in a very noticeable way. Who you are and how you think are one and the same, and will be for the entire year. From business affairs to matters of the heart, you'll know exactly what to say and when to say it. In fact, others may have a difficult time keeping up with you mentally -- but don't worry, they'll catch up eventually! Focus on being as clear as possible, and remember that there are other ways to communicate besides speaking. Writing a note to a special someone in your life is more than just romantic; it's an unexpected, tangible treat that will prove just how much you care. And you don't even have to 'say' a word!Writing, in general, is a great way to make the most of your year. If you ever wanted to be an author or journalist, this is your year to go for it. Keeping a diary or a scrapbook is another way to channel all your mental energy. You might consider joining a book club, as your critical faculties are highlighted. It's romantic if you're already part of a couple, and great way to meet someone new if you're single. Another great way to meet like-minded people is to take a class -- learn to speak Italian, and you just might find someone to travel with you to Italy!
Sun square Pluto
You cannot keep living your life as you have been. Something must change, and if you don't make that happen, then the Universe will -- and it won't be pretty. Like a snake shedding its skin, you must peel away at your own layers and protective barriers. As you do so, you'll become more and more true to yourself -- and only then will you be able to successfully conquer anything else life throws your way.Transformations like this are never easy, and you'll find your year is complicated by power struggles, emotional entanglements, self-denial and obsessive-compulsive tendencies. Accept any challenging tasks that are offered up. They may be difficult, and you may find they bring you to the end of your ropes, but when you finally finish, the end result will take you to a higher level of personal acceptance. Each accomplishment can also help take you to the next stage of your development. Relationships of all kinds will be especially trying and fraught with deceit and secrets. But that may work out in the end -- you'll need to accept that this is a year for you to focus on your own personal growth.
Mercury in Aries
Patience is a virtue that you'll have a hard time learning this year. Your mind will be on fire, racing from one topic to the next, soaking as much up as it can before you get too bored. And get bored you will! At the same time, you'll be exceptionally bright, and when you do take a few moments to ponder some conundrum, you'll find you easily come up with a unique solution that blows everyone away. In fact, your quick-thinking wit could become your strongest asset these next 12 months -- if you can slow down long enough to let that happen.Though slowing your mind down won't be the easiest thing you can do, you'll want to pay attention to make it happen. Your reactions will be impulsive and argumentative if you don't take a moment to think about what was really just said and what your response will be. At the same time, you'll be incredibly persuasive, and you'll have the ability to win any argument because you'll be so quick to understand what the real issues are. But again, your impatience could hold you back, as you'll lose interest waiting for everyone else to catch up to your line of reasoning. Accept that others won't be as fast as you and use that to your advantage by getting ahead at work and impressing your superiors.
Mercury retrograde 
No matter what your plans are, you can definitely plan on something going awry this year! Your mental style, all forms of communication, travel, and even your electronic gadgets have the potential to be more problematic than usual. Everything from learning a new language to buying a new computer will likely involve a series of unexpected obstacles you'll have to work around. Emails will get lost, meanings will be misconstrued, flights will be delayed; you can pretty much expect that nearly every aspect of your life, from romance to work, will be affected in some way by all these trials. Murphy's Laws were likely written for times like this. Basically, if something can go wrong it will. Remember, though, that careful planning, double checking, and vigilant attention will help you minimize most problems. These situations will be annoying nuisances, not life-changing upheavals. There will be times of frustration, and you may have to mop up some messes. On the bright side, you'll also find that whatever you have to deal with this year will actually help prepare you for future obstacles. This is also a good time to take up journal writing as you will be more introspective than usual.
Mercury conjunct Venus
It is said that actions speak louder than words. But in your case, the opposite couldn't be more true. Your mind is turning into a beautifully run machine, brilliantly analytic and poetic at the same time. When you turn that power toward the one you love, your words, whether few or many, will speak volumes.For the next 12 months, you'll be charming, attractive and brilliant, and your writing and speaking styles will be sophisticated, intelligent and sensual. You'll find you benefit by this in all areas of your life, but your talents will be most efficiently put to work in literary, social and romantic fields. From writing your own romance to hosting a party, whatever you attempt will prove successful. These skills are also useful in mediation, where you'll discover you're something of a miracle worker when it comes to helping people see eye to eye.If it's love you're looking for, it's love you'll get. All of those qualities listed above will make you desirable and sought after. It will simply be up to you to decide to whom you'll devote yourself. When you finally do narrow it down to one person (if you haven't already), write them a poem or song. Your words will go straight to their heart.
Venus in Aries
Love will become quite the fiery affair for you as you move from this birthday through to your next. Your sensuality and sexuality will practically ooze out of you, and many amorous encounters will await you. Whether you're single or part of a couple, sparks will fly between you and the object of your desire. You won't need any encouragement to go for what you want -- that will come to you quite naturally. This will be your chance to finally make romance do what you want.In fact, some people may even consider you to be a bit too pushy. In more areas than just romance will you be willing to fight to extremes to get what you want, so you'll need to make sure that you don't cross any lines when doing so. Make sure that if you're going to push hard for something, you choose something you're excited about. Anything that doesn't have a risk involved will leave you bored quickly, so don't waste your energy with anything (or anyone) that you don't think will offer enough stimulation. Instead, try to channel your creative energies into a more useful cause such as your work or, of course, your love life.
Mars in Pisces
You are filled with a soft and compassionate energy. You will have the ability to see other people's weaknesses, but you'll be too empathetic to try to take advantage of them. Your methods of asserting yourself will be sensitive and thoughtful, and others may not even realize you've taken control of the situation. You, however, will know the truth. You'll move through the year with a quiet confidence and power that will help you get what you want, without doing so at the expense of others.Your sexual drive will feel scattered, but then you'll prefer a more mystical connection to another person than raw sexual energy. All of your being will be about living in a higher level. Take time to make sure you are completely clear about where you stand on things, but when you're certain, you'll have complete confidence in your convictions, and you'll be a silent force to be reckoned with. Your power will come from your heart, and therefore, you won't need the same level of aggression that others will to accomplish the same things. You will be able to easily balance your own needs and transcendence against the urges of others.
Mars conjunct Saturn
The stars are about to place you in the middle of your very own conundrum -- you'll have the drive to get what you want, but external (or internal) barriers could make that nearly impossible. Nearly impossible, but not completely. There's a lesson to be learned this year, and that's how to channel your aggressive energy into a productive, tangible result. This will be especially true in relationships, but all aspects of your life will suffer until you can tame your aggression and pay attention to all the details.Your instinct will be to rush into everything you put your mind to. But that will be a guaranteed failure almost every time. You must learn to slow down! Think everything through carefully, and then proceed slowly and with caution and discipline. Any relationship you're in, will be made more difficult by your hot and cold approach. If you want love to work, you're going to have to take some time to understand your needs and feelings, and then do the same for your partner. Your career will be a bit easier, but you're still going to have to deal with your desire to just get things done when what you really need to do is go over everything with a fine-toothed comb to make sure you didn't miss one thing.
Mars conjunct Neptune
Under normal circumstances, it's good to follow your dreams and believe that you can do whatever you put your mind to. However, this year, you may not be quite as in tune with what you're actually capable of doing as you usually are. Your dreams will be undeniably powerful, full of action, aggression and possibly even violence. This will be how your subconscious comes to terms with the aggressive energies flowing through you. But your aggressive energies could become quickly overwhelmed by your dreamy, diffuse subconscious. Energy evaporates, or is squandered trying to find a firm surface to kick off from.Anger is certainly present, but unable to find an outward expression. It turns inward, creating depression or bitterness. Unable to be straightforward when you're mad, you adopt a passive-aggressive approach, leaving your victims impotent and furious in your wake, after you've wrecked something when you were 'only trying to help.'One area where your passion finds expression is your principles. You could easily be swept off your feet by a newfound leader or belief. Unquestioning, you become a foot soldier in the ground war. Beware the fanatic, and try to channel your urge to do good into channels that will actually be effective.
Mars sextile Jupiter
Exuberant, energetic, cheerful. Yep, that'll be you for the next 12 months -- give or take an off day here and there, of course. For the most part, though, you'll be ready and eager to take charge of your life and expand your mind and your opportunities. That, in turn, will help you make great improvements to your love life, your career and even your finances. So get ready to actually want to get up each morning and face your day.The two things that will really make this a great year will be your never-ending supply of energy and your unfailingly positive attitude -- you could actually become the person who drives everyone else crazy with your constant cheerfulness! How can you be so happy? Well, why not? Your sexual energy will either help you meet someone new or please your current significant other. Your excitement about your work will inspire you to go above and beyond the call of duty, pleasing your superiors to no end. You'll be willing to take risks that will result in big payoffs. The opportunities will just keep coming to you, and you really have no choice but to be ridiculously happy about everything that goes on around you.
Mars sextile Uranus
It's been said that fools rush in where angels fear to tread. Though you'll certainly fall under the category of fool this year, few people will be able to fault you for it. You'll have an original and unique take on the world around you, and you'll come up with innovative and successful approaches to tried and true methods. And this won't just be about how to make a better TV (though it could be). You'll be on a mission to improve the world. You'll have beliefs to stand up for, and you may find yourself becoming something of a freedom-fighter.Your creative thoughts will fuel a fire toward a brighter tomorrow, but this year, your cause will probably still be unfamiliar to most and, therefore, seem a bit radical. In reality, this is because you'll have a very forward-thinking bent. In time everyone else will catch up (due, at least in part, to your incredible efforts), but in the meantime, you'll have to deal with working in defense of your cause. If possible, use this as a positive outlet for that rebellious, fighting spirit that will be building up within you. This will be an excellent opportunity for you to channel your rebel qualities into making a real difference in the world.
Jupiter in Taurus
The world around you can offer up plenty of learning opportunities that you can use to improve your life. It will simply be up to you to uncover these and use them to your advantage these next 12 months. Nature, especially, can provide a wealth of knowledge. From the growth of the plants to the communication between animals, there's a lot for you to learn. One of the most valuable lessons you can learn this year will be to take pleasure in all the small things around you.It's time to unravel any cynical attitudes that may have been holding you back. Your life does not need to be any more complicated than you make it, and only you have the capabilities to make things easier for yourself. If possible, take responsibility for holding down the fort. If you're smart with your investments, you could create some extra time for yourself. Plus, notwithstanding your tendencies to go to excess with food and sex, you'll have a good grasp of the essentials of life, and your love and understanding of security will make you a solid rock that those close to you can build upon. Share your wisdom of creating this ideal life with others -- they may not heed your advice immediately, but you'll have at least planted the seed of knowledge.
Jupiter conjunct Uranus
One of the most amazing aspects of science fiction is that a certain portion of it somehow ends up being true years and years later. That's how your mind will be working in the coming months -- it'll just be so far out there that your ideas will seem like fiction, but wait a few years and suddenly everyone will realize just how right you were. Your mind will be working in hyperdrive, and it might be a good idea for you to write everything down so everyone else will have an easier time catching up later.Spend as much of your time traveling as possible, as new locations and cultures will enhance your imagination and bring even crazier ideas to the forefront. Living for the present may be difficult this year, so go ahead and let your mind wander into uncharted territory. Take advantage of your incredible technical savvy at work and wow your superiors with your brilliant solutions to age-old problems. Meanwhile, if you're looking for love, try to find someone who can share your vision of the future. Or, if you're already part of a happy couple, you should talk everything through with your partner so they'll understand what's going on in that head of yours.
Jupiter sextile Saturn
Basically, your whole life is about personal growth. It's about taking what you've learned and expanding on that to make things better for the future. If ever there was a time for you to dive right in and get started on the plan to improve yourself and your future, this year is it. Theoretically, you should try identify every growth opportunity that comes before you, but in reality, every single experience is just that opportunity. Use this knowledge and it will help you bring a positive influence to any and all aspects of your life.It will be up to you to motivate yourself to open the doors that will bring you a better future, and fortunately, you'll have the skills to do just that. You'll have a grasp of the details you'll need to work through in order turn your dreams into reality. Your strong understanding of your place in society will be a major component in just how far you can go -- which will be quite far, if you put your mind to it. You will have the creative ability to imagine the best life possible, and you will be able to accept the responsibility of seeing that come to life. Ultimately, your power to see everything to completion will be your greatest strength and ally.
Saturn in Pisces
So much out there is unexplained, intangible and just not understood. And yet you'll be asked to put your faith in it, anyway. Scary? Yes. But doable? Probably. Your fears may hold you back for a while. The unknown is always a scary place to visit, but you'll be asked to live there this year. Irrational thoughts will rule your world, and you'll feel like you don't have enough control over the chaotic circumstances that take hold of your life. Sometimes you need to take a leap of faith and trust that things will work themselves out in the end.In response to this, you may have problems with drugs or other addictions. You could also develop relationship issues, and you may not feel comfortable devoting yourself to someone else or relating to others with true compassion. However, once you can accept that you have these fears and faults, you can work on improving them. At that point you will begin to build up faith again, and you'll be more likely to be able to develop a compassionate and unconditional love, as well as a more matured trust in the intangibles of life, such as the mystical and spiritual aspects.
Northnode in Aries
The desire to discovering your true individuality will hold a strong power over you this year. You'll be looking to develop a freer, more accurate way to express yourself as a distinct entity, separate and unrelated to those around you. This may sound an awful lot like a teenager struggling to find themselves, and it is similar, but your actions and reactions in trying to find yourself will go much deeper than just understanding your place in society. You will attempt to walk away with a truer idea of who you are and where you're going by the time your next birthday rolls around.You are already familiar with your place in in society and in your more personal relationships. The path to your future will start when you step beyond that and attempt to familiarize yourself with who you are as an individual. You will seek out challenges in an effort to fulfill the independent energy within. This could include anything from pulling away from a comfortable partnership to heading off on your own with your career. You don't want to alienate others in your search for your identity, but you will need to head out on your own if you're going to succeed in following your life path this year.
Uranus in Taurus
You are heading into a unique situation in which you will have the power to make major change, but you'll be able to do so in a grounded and safe way. Progressive action can be scary and unpredictable, but you will manage to create a smooth balance between the radical ideas flowing through your mind and the processes needed to turn these ideas into reality. You will certainly see some major transformations occur in many aspects of your life, and possibly in aspects of the rest of the world as well.There is much wisdom to be gained from this world, both from nature and from history. Unlocking these secrets will be the key to keeping your originality and growth moving forward in a stable manner. Two of your major weaknesses this year could, ironically, be a fear of change and an impatience about upcoming transitions. Mixed in with your forward-thinking ways will be a stubborn steak, a part of you that just wants everything to remain the same. At the same time, you'll be giddy waiting for your plans to go into effect. If possible, try to find a happy medium. Your mental powers will be strong and stabling this year, so don't forget to use them on your own psyche as well.
Neptune in Pisces
The truest compassion is not something that comes and goes depending on your moods or the circumstances, but rather, it's a state of being. It should be given out as unconditional love for all creatures, good and bad. The most real feelings of brotherhood and sisterhood will come to you this year when you are able to develop a genuine empathy for all creatures on earth. You will feel something of a craving to get out and help those in need as much as possible, and that's one craving you should certainly give in to. Volunteer at homeless shelters, children's organizations, hospitals, etc. -- anything that will leave you satisfied with the work you've done.Your spiritual connection will also become much stronger, and you'll feel an overwhelming desire to transcend the rational world and move more fully into your belief system. Again, feel free to give in to the desire. Let your dream world and your imagination guide you along the path to enlightenment. Just be sure you don't fall astray into the world of escapism. Though you might enjoy yourself there, you will not fully complete yourself until you leave the physical realm behind your entirely.
Neptune sextile Pluto
The cycle of life says that something must die in order for more life to go on. This could be something traumatic like a mother dying in childbirth, but that's extremely rare compared to all the other little things that occur by the millions every day. A piece of rotten fruit in a field provides nutrients to animals passing by or the soil below it. A caterpillar turns into a butterfly. Even you getting rid of old clothes to make room for new ones falls under this category. Change and transformation are simply processes of life, and ones that we deal with every day.This year, however, you'll be more sensitive to the transformations that occur, and they'll become a part of who you are. It will likely be a very spiritual time for you, as you will begin to question all that goes on around you. Just what is the reason for our cyclical behavior? How can one concept apply to every aspect of life (e.g. for every action there is an opposite and equal reaction)? These questions and many others will plague you as you make a transition from simply accepting the world around you, to really seeing its complexities and wondering if a powerful being is in charge, or if everything just fell into place somehow, like a well-oiled machine.
I hope you have enjoyed the valuable insight, wisdom and guidance of this astrology report. You might be a little curious about astrology and perhaps wondering how an astrologer can know so much about you!
Astrology is a mathematical system. It's all about applying meaning to numbers, or more specifically, finding meaning in the movements of the planets around the Sun, as viewed from our perspective here on earth. These planetary movements are easily captured and recorded with measurements, calculations, angles and so on.
That's why astrology works so well with computers, whose programs are also based on numbers and formulas. In 'the old days' -- thousands of years ago, when astrology was first recorded -- those early astrologers had to painstakingly observe the heavens and catalog their observations for the next generation of astrologers to build upon. Thank goodness for the computer age! Now we can simply use computers to make those calculations quickly and pull just the applicable pieces of information. Now, astrology is instant, based upon thousands of years of observations obtained through careful methodology.
Interpretations of planetary positions are based in part on ancient Greek and Roman mythology, but your astrological report is unique, describing you and you only. Even in the case of twin siblings, their birth charts differ from each other's in at least a few ways. And besides, no one amounts to just a simple interpretation of their birth chart; everyone's personality is complex. Your astrological report leaves plenty of room for variations based on your free will, personal growth and transformation over a lifetime.
Just like you, your astrological report is unique. It’s generated online in seconds and provides you with instant insight at your fingertips. Whether you have a pressing question about your future or you just want some guidance and direction, now you can have it all -- in a fast, focused, all-about-you format.
You can choose from several different types to find the report that's right for you and your needs. Your natal report is all about you -- your unique characteristics, strengths, weaknesses, potential and so on. Compatibility reports analyze the connections between two different people, to see how well and in what ways they get along. And a forecast is based on where the planets are today and how they're affecting you, uniquely. Be sure to try a free sample of another report to find out more about you!
