Oh, Aries. You’re known to be a feisty fighter, and you sure have been proving it lately! Luckily, the second half of 2014 will be absolutely divine for you, welcome news after a year like 2013!

Before we get to that, however, let’s back up. 2014 starts out on a rough note, with a new moon in your career house that’s conjunct Pluto and Mercury, square your ruler Mars in your 7th house of partners, square Uranus in your own sign, AND square Jupiter in your 4th. Ouch. These are hitting all the angles of your chart, and there’s seems to be a tug of war going on between your home and career needs. Perhaps a new career opportunity is proving to be a lot more challenging than you anticipated, or you’re having troubles with your father or another authority figure in your life. Alternatively, you might be spending so much time on home or personal matters that you’re neglecting your job. The 10th house (where this nasty new moon takes place) also rules marriage, so you may be dealing with conflict in this area- perhaps your family isn’t pleased with your spouse, or your marriage is hitting a rough patch.

Luckily, the end of January is more friendly, with a full moon occurring in your 4th house of home supported by Saturn in your 8th house of other people’s money. A home loan may come through, or perhaps your partner comes into a bonus or inheritance of some kind.

February is friendly too, with a new moon in your house of hopes and dreams supported by Uranus in your own sign. You may hear sudden good news about something close to your heart, or a friend may pull through for you in a big way. This month also sees a full moon in your 5th house of true love sextile Mars in your 7th house of partnerships. A love matter may culminate, and you may finally make it official! Aries who are already coupled up may discover a pregnancy, or perhaps decide to have kids around this time. Alternatively, Aries in the wrong relationship may break up. I don’t really foresee this happening, but if it does, rest assured that the universe is only looking out for you, encouraging you to take the steps to meet someone else.

March is looking fine and divine, with a new moon in your 12th house of closure conjunct Neptune and trine Jupiter in your 4th house. You may move around this time, or perhaps bundle yourself up at home to work on a creative project. The moon will also sextile Pluto in your 10th house, indicating that your career needs will jive nicely with your home needs. With Saturn also providing support from your 8th house of resources, it looks like any financial needs will be met as well. How lucky for you! Perhaps you find the money to move to a new home that’s closer to your work, or your father or a prominent man in your life becomes instrumental in a home matter. One chapter of your life appears to be closing. but luckily any loose ends you need to tie up should go smoothly.

This is good news, because the new beginnings that you launch in April will come with a little bit of turbulence, my dear. The new moon in your sign will conjunct Uranus, indicating that something will come up out of the blue. The moon squares Jupiter in your house of home, and Pluto in your house of career. Later in the month, Mars in your house of partnerships will square as well, and you might see some fireworks around matters of this nature! As usual, the fight seems to be between home and career, or family and marriage. A new career venture may upset your family or partner, or perhaps you have to change careers to suit your partner’s or family’s needs. Don’t fret- while you may encounter challenges in these areas, the universe is just asking you to make changes that will suit you best in the long run. Rome wasn’t built in a day, right? Soon these planets will move on, having transformed these sections of your life to their liking.

Luckily, April isn’t all tough, as there are two friendly eclipses. The first takes place in Libra and your house of partnerships, bringing a partnership matter to a conclusion. You may make it official, or unfortunately, you could break it off. My feeling is that the former will occur, and you will become very serious with someone. Marriage may even be in the cards for you. This is because the north node will have moved into this same sector in March, putting all of your focus on a partner. Let’s not forget that Mars, your ruler, is also in this sector for 8 months- until July 2014. The universe certainly seems to want you to put your own needs on the back burner for a minute so that you can focus on a partner. If you’re the independent type (you’re an Aries- of course you’re independent!) this may be frustrating for you, but hopefully the north node’s transit will make you appreciate the rewards that come with compromise and collaboration.

The other eclipse taking place in April is in Taurus and your second house of income and self-worth. This one will conjunct Mercury and sextile Neptune in your 12th house of endings. You appear to be starting a new job or source of income at this time (Mercury rules your 6th house of work and your 3rd house of contracts). Neptune’s presence indicates an artistic or creative angle, and the 12th house reinforces this. You may begin a writing project, perhaps a novel or screenplay, that will be a great source of income for you 6 months down the road. Alternatively, a new marriage may increase both your financial status and your sense of well-being and health. If you sign any kind of contract, be sure to read the details closely, as Neptune can cast an idealistic fog over anything he touches.

The big news of 2014 is Jupiter’s move from Cancer to Leo. This is huge news for you, Aries! While it was nice to have Jupiter in your house of home, it can be tough to have any big planet square to your sun, as Jupiter has been since July 2013. Not only will Jupiter move out of the square and into your 5th house of true love, fun, and children, but it will also move into a fellow fire sign, giving you an extra blast of good fortune! Even better, it will stay there for a whole year- until July 2015! Yippee Ki-Yay, mothereffers!

In July, Jupiter will conjunct the new moon in your 5th house, and you may begin an amazing new relationship, or even hear joyful pregnancy news! Single and dating? Get down with your bad self. Date around, play the field, and explore your options. You might not meet the love of your life, but you may just meet Mr. Right Now (do be careful though- you are a fertile mertile during this time!).

August will see a minor hiccup with a friend or long-term project. The full moon in this sector will sextile Uranus in your own sign, oppose Mercury in your partnership sign, and square Saturn in your 8th house of other people’s money. A long-term project may hit a financing snag, or perhaps you fight with a friend or business partner over money.

Luckily, fall of 2014 is yours for the taking. Jupiter in your 5th house of love, children, and fun, will trine Uranus in your own sign in September, and October 8th sees an eclipse making a golden triangle between your 1st house, 5th house, and Mars in your 9th house of travel. A creative writing project may take off like wildfire, or you may get engaged or announce a baby. Alternatively, you could go on a fun trip with a lover or child!

October also sees a solar eclipse in your 8th house of other people’s money that’s conjunct Venus and Sextile Neptune in your 12th house of endings. You may receive a bonus or inheritance, or perhaps your partner comes into some funds. Adding to the great news, Saturn will leave this sector on December 24th, 2014 (although he will return briefly in 2015), easing any financial pressures you’ve felt over the past few years. All in all, 2014 is looking to be a great one, Aries. You’ve been through the fire lately, but this is your year to rise from the ashes. Enjoy it!

Aquarius

You’re probably getting pretty sick of hearing me talk about your career, but I can’t help it! It’s what the stars are saying. With the Sun, Mercury, and Saturn all in your 10th house of career, and a solar new moon eclipse activating this same sector on the 3rd, you’re still focused on the office. Sextile to the eclipse are Mars in your 8th house of other people’s money and Pluto in your 12th house of endings. You might close a financing offer for a new business idea, or perhaps get a bonus check from a creative endeavor. Alternatively, you might be ending or beginning a marriage. Solar eclipses indicate new beginnings, so watch what comes up around this time. Wait to initiate any ventures until November 12th, at which point Mercury will be direct, and the Sun in your 10th will trine Jupiter in your 6th house of work. You might upgrade your offices, hire a key new person, or garner some press for your accomplishments. Exciting! On the 7th, Jupiter goes retrograde, so you may find yourself reviewing office procedures or client lists, and making sure you have your priorities straight. Alternatively, you may evaluate and re-do a diet, workout regime, or health ritual to see if you can get better results. On the 15th, Venus will conjunct Pluto in your 12th house of closure. It’s hard to know how this will manifest- Venus is a healing planet, but conjunctions can bring harsh news- in the 12th house, a secret may come out into the open. You may finally deal with a mental or health issue on this day, or perhaps a love connection will solidify or terminate. Uranus will be squaring the pair, so it’s likely a communication issue or contract will be involved. The full moon in Taurus on the 17th falls in your 4th house of home. You may sell or close on a new house, or an ongoing family matter may culminate. Jupiter in your 6th will be at a nice angle, suggesting you may do some work from home. 2 days later, Mars- which has been touring your house of other people’s money all month- will sextile Jupiter, and you may get a commission or bonus! What a nice holiday surprise! See if you can take a few days off and celebrate!

Pisces

Just as the pilgrims found America by venturing beyond the unknown, so can you find new horizons by broadening your scope. Ok, cheesy, I know, but this month is urging you to push against your comfort zone. The Sun, Mercury, and Saturn are all rooted in your 9th house of travel and education. You could be knee-deep in a course of a study or a fellowship abroad. Perhaps you’re writing a novel or you’re in production on a tv show. The new moon solar eclipse in this same sector falls on the 3rd, and you may start a new project or course of study that will culminate sometime in the next six months. Mars in your 7th house of partnerships will sextile, suggesting you have a strong partner to guide you, whether that’s in love or business. Pluto in your house of hopes and dreams (and friendship) is also sextile, so you may even have a supportive friend helping you along the way. Try not to initiate anything until November 12th, when Mercury will have gone direct, and the Sun will trine Jupiter in your 5th house of love and creativity. This could be a great day for a screenplay or manuscript to be turned in! Alternatively, if you’re able to jet out of town with your lover, I highly recommend it during this time! It would a fun and romantic time- the best in a while! Jupiter will go retrograde on the 7th, so you may have to review any issues involving creative projects, children, or love relationships to make sure you’re happy with how things are going. On the 15th, Venus will conjunct Pluto in your 11th house of friendships. You may have a problem with a friend, or perhaps a friendship will transition into a romantic relationship- seemingly out of nowhere!  Uranus will be squaring the pair from your 2nd house of income, so be careful when it comes to friends and money. You know what they say- they don’t mix! The full moon on the 17th falls at 24 degrees of Taurus in your 3rd house of communication. You may sign a contract near this date or finish out some kind of project. Jupiter in your 5th house will be in good angle, so it should all go well. 2 days later, Mars – which has been zooming through your partnership sector of Virgo- will signal Jupiter in your 5th, and you may hear good news in love, or about a creative partner. One day to watch out for is the 25th, when the Sun moves into your career house and squares your ruler, Neptune, in your own sign. You may hit a snag on a career matter. Luckily, with all the other good aspects this month, I think this will be a Thanksgiving to remember!

Aries

With Saturn, Mercury, and the Sun, as well as a new moon solar eclipse, all falling in your 8th house of other people’s money, you are all about the benjamins this month. The eclipse is sextile Mars in your 6th house of work, and Pluto in your 10th house of career, indicating that you’re looking at a hefty commission coming in for a work project. Perhaps you’ll get a bonus, or funding to start your dream company.  Alternatively, you could be going through a major work and career transformation as you seek to find your true path. Try to save any initiatives until November 12th, when Mercury will be out of retrograde and the Sun will trine Jupiter in your 4th house of home. Your work and home needs seem to be in balance on this day, and you may even come into funds having to do with your home- perhaps you sell your house or receive an inheritance. Jupiter goes retrograde on the 7th in your house of home, so you may begin to revisit any housing or family situations over the next few months. Perhaps you’ll start househunting, or finally re-do your kitchen. It could even be as simple as re-arranging your furniture! The 15th is a wild card, when Venus hits Pluto in your house of career. You may get an unexpected offer for a job that causes you to think hard about what you want. Uranus in your first house of self will be squaring the pair, so the job may be very personal to you. The full moon in Taurus on the 17th falls in your 2nd house of income- see what I mean about this month being all about the benjamins? Jupiter is nicely angled in your 4th house, suggesting that income could come through a family member or a home sale. 2 days later,  your ruler, Mars- which has been zipping along in your 6th house of work- bringing in lots of assignments- will signal Jupiter in your 4th, again indicating that your work environment and your home or house will be closely aligned.  If you have to work, why not keep it close to home around the holidays? Everyone’s gotta eat- so put down the computer and grab a fork already!

Grammia virgo

Money can’t buy you love. So say The Beatles anyway. I advise you keep that in mind this month, as your financial situation might get a little wonky. Luckily, the month starts out on a nice note- your ruler, Mercury, is in your 3rd house of communication (the house mercury rules!), and on Oct 3rd, it will trine Neptune in your 7th house of partnerships. Communication with your sweetie will be divine on this day. Alternatively, any contract you sign to form a new business partnership will be swimming in good luck. Unfortunately, the good vibrations come to a halt on the 5th, with a new moon in your income house. This new moon will be opposing Uranus in your house of other people’s money, and squaring Pluto in your house of true love. Perhaps you and your love aren’t on the same page regarding a financial situation, or your child has a large expense. Alternatively, funding for a creative project may suddenly go awry. This isn’t such a new influence- Uranus has been sending you surprises in your money sector for 2 1/2 years, and Pluto has been drudging up issues regarding love, children, and creativity since 2008. The two planets have been squaring each other since June 2012, forcing you to confront any issues you have with love and money. They will continue to do so until 2015, so you may as well start listening. They know what they’re talking about. Coming back to this month, on the 13th, the Sun in your financial sector will square Jupiter in your 11th house of hopes and wishes, and the funding for a long-term goal could hit a snag. As if that weren’t enough, your ruler Mercury will conjunct hard-knocks planet Saturn twice this month in your communication house- once on the 8th and once on the 30th (and again next month- argh!). If you didn’t sign a contract on the 3rd, for the love of all that is good and holy please don’t do it now. If a contract isn’t on the table, you might instead have issues with a car or sibling. There’s always the chance that instead of bringing bad vibes, Saturn could bring stability to a contract, so if you have to sign something on the 8th you might be able to get away with it. However, because Mercury goes retrograde on the 21st,  you definitely want to avoid the 30th. Since Mercury is your ruler, its retrograde is extra frustrating for you. You may find a project close to your heart needs to be re-configured, career matters seem sticky, or perhaps your car suddenly has a host of problems. You don’t need me to tell you that you shouldn’t even think of buying a new car or taking a new job until Mercury turns direct. Next month, on November 13th, Mercury will resume forward motion at the same time the Sun in the 3rd house will trine Jupiter. Give your final word then. You might be wondering if this month brings ANY good news. Well- it does! On the 10th, Venus in your 4th house of home will trine Uranus in your 8th house of other people’s money. A home loan may come through, or you may be the recipient of an inheritance. Perhaps your home  life will go through an epic transformation that you didn’t anticipate. The lunar eclipse in this same financial sector on the 20th makes an influx of cash a real possibility.  Just make sure you avoid moving or signing contracts when Mercury turns retrograde on the 21st! Mars enters your sign on the 8th giving you tons of energy and drive. This is a fortunate aspect that only comes along every 2 years. Unfortunately, you may find yourself beating your head against the wall once Mercury goes retrograde. The energy of Mars + the delays of retrograde = frustration. Sweat it out at the gym, Virgo, and breathe. It will pass. Specifically, it will pass after November 12th, when Mercury will go direct and you’ll still have Mars in your sign. On the 20th, Mars will oppose Neptune in your 7th house of partnerships. Neptune has been transiting this house for a while, casting a fog over your partnerships. This dreamy planet doesn’t play very well with aggressive Mars in your sign, and you may find yourself in a confrontation with your significant other on this day. Luckily, on the 26th, the Sun in your 3rd house will trine Pisces in your partnership house, bringing communication back to a manageable level. Even better, on the 31st, Mars in your sign will trine Pluto in your 5th house of true love, making for one helluva sexy Halloween. Why not make scary, sexy!

Hope you have some ginger ale handy this month, cause you may get carsick on this wild ride. Let’s get the bad out of the way, shall we? The new moon on the 5th in your 3rd house is one jerk of a hostess. She’s opposing Uranus in your 9th house and squaring Pluto in your 6th. Travel is not ideal this month, nor are writing or speaking endeavors. With the 6th house in play, a health issue could come into the picture. Alternatively, you may be fighting with co-workers. Contracts could go awry, siblings could cause problems, or you may suffer transportation breakdowns. Your work and travel houses have been fighting since October 2012. You may have been struggling with whether your values match your job description, and communication breakdowns with co-workers have probably been likely. You have a few more years to sort out your feelings on this, cause these planets will continue to fight until 2015. Complicating matters this month is the fact that Mercury goes retrograde on the 21st in your house of home. Issues surrounding the house and home will go fuzzy and stall. Promise me you won’t commit to a new lease during this time! As if retrograde weren’t enough, Mercury conjuncts Saturn in your house of home twice this month (the 8th and the 30th). Eek. Saturn is a serious planet that can cause hardships and limitations. Mercury is a communication planet, so you can see these aren’t ideal conditions to commit to a housing situation. Mercury rules your houses of income and long-term goals, and retrograde will cause you to review and change matters of these nature, so I’d wait until next month to see where things stand. There’s always a chance Saturn will actually be beneficial- it could lend stability to your venture- but with that wonky new moon and Mercury retrograde, I personally wouldn’t take any chances. You can look at apartments, but don’t put anything in writing until November 12th. In fact, on November 13th, the sun in your housing sector will trine good-luck Jupiter, so that will be a great time to move forward. This month however, on Oct 13,  your ruler (the sun) in your communication house will square Jupiter in your 12th, so you should pretty much avoid contracts of any kind all month. Some good news for your love life- Venus moves into Sagittarius and your 5th house of pleasure and love on the 8th, sure to make for a romantic time. On the 17th, Venus trines Uranus in your 9th house of travel. You might find sudden sparks with a foreigner or while at university. Alternatively, you might have a flash of inspiration for a publishing or broadcasting project. The eclipse in Aries at 25 degrees on the 18th will bring this same house into focus, and a matter regarding publishing, education, or travel will peak. Just watch out for the 20th, when Mars in your 2nd house of income will oppose neptune in your house of other people’s money. Mars is the aggressor planet and neptune likes to smoke ’em peace pipe, so these two go together like Zuckerberg and the Winklevii twins. Go over any financial dealings with a fine tooth comb, as Neptune likes to conceal details. Halloween brings good news on the money front, as Mars in your income house will trine pluto in your work house- an excellent aspect for raising your salary at your current job! Sounds like a happy halloween to me!

Last month seemed to see you focusing on travel and communication. This month, October 3rd puts the finishing touches on whatever came up around Sept 20, as Mercury in your 5th house of true love trines Neptune in your 9th house of travel. These are great aspects for a creative writing or broadcasting project, but you must tread carefully, as other planets in the solar system happen to be wreaking havoc! There’s a new moon in your 4th house of home on Oct 5th, and unfortunately it’s opposed to Uranus in your 10th house of career, and also squaring Pluto in your 7th house of partnerships. Because you’re a cardinal sign, and all of the planets I just mentioned are also in cardinal signs (Aries, Capricorn, Libra), you’re gonna be feeling the heat on this one. Especially if you were born around July 5th, plus or minus a few days. There seems to be a war going on between your personal and professional needs. Perhaps you found your dream home, but it’s located an hour away from your workplace. Or perhaps your spouse was offered a great position in another state, but you happen to like the job and home you already have! Uranus has been making its way through your career house since 2011, causing all kinds of sudden changes and revelations, and Pluto has been doing the same thing in your partnership house since 2008. Since June 2012, these two planets have been tangled up in bed together, pitting the worlds of your career and partnerships together until you come up with a solution. You may be having trouble with an employer or business partner, or your significant other might be unhappy with the hours you’re putting in at the office. Alternatively, you could be trying to sort out your feelings on marriage, and whether you should take the plunge or go your separate ways. It’s easy to brush problems under the rug for a while, but your issues won’t go away until you deal with them. This influence will last until 2015 so you may as well get cracking. Later-born Cancers probably have yet to feel this influence as the planets haven’t quite made their way through those degrees yet, but those of you born in early July (or the mid-degrees if you know your rising sign) are in the thick of it. Luckily, you have Jupiter in your house protecting you, and this is an influence that will last all the way until July 2014. One particular day to watch out for is October 13th- on this day, the sun in your home house will square Jupiter in your sign, and you may get housing news that throws you for a loop. Mercury is also dead set on ruining everyone’s month. It will conjunct Saturn twice in your house of true love- on the 8th and 30th- and will be retrograde from Oct 21st- Nov 11th. Mercury rules your 3rd and 12th houses, so you may have to go back and review any issues having to do with writing or communication, transportation, mental health or illness. Saturn has been making its way through your 5th house since October 2012, which isn’t a very fun influence! The 5th rules your house of fun, creativity, and playfullness, so things may feel a bit somber for a while (until 2015). The universe is asking you to get serious and get your affairs in order- it may even be encouraging you to settle down and start a family! So trust that things will work out for the best. There is some good news this month. Venus moves into your house of work and health, and you may beef up your health routine or decorate your office. Perhaps you will even find love on the job! On the 17th, Venus in this house will trine Uranus in your career house and you may get a raise or promotion! On the very next day, the 18th, a lunar eclipse will fall in this same house- your career house- indicating that something regarding your career will come to a head. One day to watch out for is the 10th, when Venus in your 6th house of work and health will square Neptune in your house of travel and writing. Illness may interfere with a trip, or you may hit a snag in a work project. Mars moves into your 3rd house on the 8th, and you could find yourself with about a billion errands to run and emails to answer. On the 20th, Mars will oppose Neptune in your 9th house of writing and travel. This is an odd influence, as Mars is turbo-booster planet, and Neptune is soft and compassionate. You may find yourself torn between fantasy and reality on this day- you want to dream and create, but the real world needs you to handle your business! On the 31st, Mars will trine Pluto in your 7th house- this is a good day to sign a contract for a partnership. On the 26th, the Sun in your 5th house will trine Jupiter in your 1st house, and love matters may be divine! This would also be a great day to ~ahem~ try to make some babies if you’re into that. Seems like a good way to spend a cuddly fall night to me!

Did you score a career triumph at the end of last month? If you did, expect the finishing touches to be put on on Oct 3, when Mercury in your work house will trine Neptune in your career house. You may tie up any outstanding paperwork at this time. Good thing too cause the new moon falls shortly after, on October 5th, in your house of true love, and my is it a doozy! It’s opposing Uranus in your house of hopes and dreams and squaring Pluto in your 8th house of other people’s money. You may fight with a lover over money, or funding on a creative project could go sour. Alternatively, you may be struggling with whether or not you want that best guy (or girl) friend of yours to be something more…can your relationship go from platonic to romantic? One particular day to keep an eye on is October 13th, when the Sun in your house of love and creativity will square Jupiter in your house of income. Again, money is in the picture- you may have to spend a bunch on a child or creative endeavor, or perhaps your love isn’t bringing home his share of the bacon. This is not a new influence, as Uranus and Pluto have been in a square since June 2012. You may have been trying to get funding for a long term dream, or perhaps a friendship is going through a transformation. Whatever is going on, expect it to continue to morph and change over the years until 2015. You may have some resolution on the 18th, when a lunar eclipse in Aries falls in this same house of hopes and dreams/friendship. A project or commitment close to your heart should culminate at this time, especially if you have a planet or point at 26 degrees of Aries. Alternatively, a friend may make a big announcement. Moving on, your ruler, Mercury, is set to cause all kinds of problems this month. Mercury will conjunct Saturn on the 8th and 30th in your house of work and health. Saturn has been moving through this sector since October 2012. It can often be a relief when Saturn changes sign. It takes 2 1/2 years to move through each house, and by the end of the transit most people are ready for it to move on already! You previously had Saturn in your 5th house, which can be a real bummer. The 5th house rules love, creativity, and most importantly FUN, so you may have felt a little somber at times. Now, Saturn is in your 6th house, which isn’t much of a picnic either! I certainly hope Saturn isn’t bringing to light any medical issues, although that can certainly happen (I discovered a long-term medical issue when Saturn transited my solar 6th house). Most likely you are feeling an increased pressure at work. When I had Saturn transiting my natal 6th house, I found myself working full time and going to grad school full-time. I worked all day and night, including weekends, and for about 9 months it seemed I barely had time to brush my teeth! Mercury conjunct Saturn could manifest in a few different ways, as Mercury is both your ruler and also rules your 4th house of home. You or a family member may fall ill, or a work project could go off the rails. To make matters worse, Mercury will go retrograde in your work house on the 21st, and won’t go direct until November 12th. Mercury retrogrades always affect you the most since it’s your ruler. You may have to re-do work that you thought was finished, or you may encounter staffing or office changes on the job. Alternatively, you may wish to examine your health routines to make sure you’ll doing all you can to stay healthy and fit. If joining a gym is on the agenda, please wait until after Mercury goes direct to make a commitment. Same goes for any job hunting. Any commitment you make at this time will need to be revised, as you’ll find the conditions won’t be what you were hoping for. Now for some good news- Venus moves into your house of committed partnerships on the 8th, injecting new love and life into a romantic relationship. Whether you’re newly dating or been married for a decade, this is sure to put a little pep in your step. Even better, on the 17th, Venus will trine Uranus in your 3rd house of travel and communication. You might say “I love you” for the first time, or perhaps receive a hand-written poem from a lover. Although it’s a little close to Mercury retrograde for my liking, this could be a wonderful time to take a short trip to a nearby B&B for some romantic relaxation. One day to watch out for though is October 10- on this day Venus will square Neptune in your house of career. Work demands may trump pleasure on this day, or perhaps your boss scolds you for taking time off to be with your boo. Home matters will get an energetic boost when Mars moves into this area on the 16th. You might decide to move or do renovations, or perhaps you have family visiting from out of town. On the 20th, Mars will oppose Neptune in your career house, once more pitting your personal house against your career house. You might be so focused on home drama that you’re neglecting work obligations. Luckily on the 31st, Mars will trine Pluto in your house of other people’s money, and a home loan or re-financing option may come through. Alternatively, you could receive an inheritance you didn’t see coming, or a family member comes into a windfall. Happy Halloween to you!

Bonus September 2013 Horoscopes- Venus and Saturn Conjunct North Node

On September 18th and 19th, Venus will conjunct Saturn and the North Node in Scorpio, a rare event that won’t happen again until 2026 (Saturn and the North Node will conjunct exactly on the 26th).

The North Node is a fated point, and it’s considered a spiritual teacher. Its lessons are ones we need to follow in order to be truly happy and fulfilled in life. Its opposite point- the South Node- represents the natural habits we’re born with which we need to overcome in order to reach our full potential.

While the North Node in the natal chart points to the area the individual needs to work on throughout their entire life, the transit of the North Node offers temporary lessons in every area to everyone.

What does this particular transit mean for you?

Aries

Events transpire that allow you to let go of your need for financial independence. You don’t have to go it alone- it can be wonderful to be part of a team. Combining your income with another will lift you both. In doing so, you may find your income rises on its own as well.

Taurus

It’s time to give yourself to another emotionally and physically. If you have been avoiding commitment, now is the time that you will merge. Why not take your new union on vacation?

Gemini

Now’s the time to pay attention to the mechanics of situation, not just the big idea. Routine can be necessary for success. Pay attention to the details, get your affairs in order, and you will come out on top.

Cancer

You don’t always need to be one of the crowd. You’re allowed to stand out and shine on your own. Take a risk and bet and yourself. You’ll have a fan club in no time. Bonus- you might meet or commit to the love of your life.

Leo

Who needs to live up to stranger’s expectations, when you have a loving family supporting your every move? Release your need for control, and you just mind find everything goes your way.

Virgo

You’re learning to stop, look, and listen. You thought you knew all the answers, but now it’s time to get your facts straight. No one likes a know-it-all, and your message may have gotten lost with your aggressive delivery. Slow down and keep that tongue in check.

Libra

Time to put on your big girl pants and stop relying on others. You’re perfectly capable of supporting yourself, so why don’t you? Quit with the drama already and stop making excuses. Focus on the here and now, and try to see things as they are.

Scorpio

Co-dependant no more. There’s no need to fear your own power or decision-making capabilities, and you don’t need anyone else to validate you when you can validate yourself. Put on your own oxygen mask first before helping another with theirs, and you may end up with  a more balanced relationship.

Sagittarius

You gotta have faith, the faith, the faith. The universe is telling you that you can’t control everything. Let go, and trust that the details will fall into place without you micro-managing. Focus on the big picture and use your imagination- there’s only so much you can do.

Capricorn

Let go and trust that everyone else is as capable as you. You may have appointed yourself the Ultimate Diva in Charge, but other people don’t appreciate being ordered around. Collaboration is key now. You can achieve way more with others than by yourself.

Aquarius

Events transpire to bring you out of your bubble and into the public eye. Sure, your bed is cozy, but you need to take your rightful place at the head of the boardroom. You can’t win if you don’t try, and pushing yourself to achieve more will bring the emotional benefits you so crave.

Pisces

Trust in the bigger picture and release your need to grasp all the details. Open your mind and anything is possible. Slow down, take a yoga class, meditate, or do what you need to do to quiet the voices in your head. Only then will you reach your full potential.

2013 October Horoscopes- Capricorn

Under Capricorn

Just when you thought you’d put your career troubles behind you, they decided to pop out again to say hello- just in time for Halloween! Saturn spent 2 1/2 years in your career sector, leaving in October of last year. The pressure lifted, but it’s coming back briefly this month as some cosmic storms come rolling in. The new moon in your 10th house of career on Oct 5th will oppose Uranus in your house of home, and square Pluto in your sign. You might get the job offer of your dreams…but it’s located across the globe. Your career and home seem to be at war with each other, and it’s hard for you to know which direction to take. This isn’t an entirely new influence- Uranus and Pluto have been doing a complicated tango since June 2012, trying to get you to put down roots and figure out where you want to be. It can be exhausting, and unfortunately this influence will last until 2015. It’s especially tough on you, as you’re one of the cardinal signs (along with your Aries, Libra, and Cancer buddies) that these large outer planets are traveling through. Don’t feel too bad- all signs are feeling the heat from the Uranus/Pluto square, just in different ways. One specific day to watch out for is the 13th, when the Sun in your career house will square Jupiter in your house of partnerships, and the needs of your career may be at odds with the needs of your personal life. If it’s a housing or home-related matter you’re dealing with, things should be resolved by October 18th, with the lunar eclipse in Aries in your 4th house. This is especially true if you have any planets or points at 25 degrees Aries, Capricorn, Libra, or Cancer, or if you were born around January 18th. Eclipses can be felt up to one month before or after the eclipse date, so you may have already experienced a major development, or one may not happen until November. Going back to the beginning of the month for a minute- on Oct 3, Mercury in your house of friendships will trine Neptune in your house of short travel. You may go on a fun trip with friends, or perhaps a writing or communication project will come to fruition. I want to emphasize that this beneficial influence is only good on this date, however, as the sky will be too chaotic later in the month for travel. Mercury will conjunct Saturn twice this month in your friendship house- on the 8th and 30th- before going retrograde on the 21st. Mercury rules your 6th house of work and health, as well as your 9th house of travel and publishing. You may experience set-backs at the office or decide to change your diet or health routine. Additionally, you might be re-assessing your personal philosophies and beliefs to make sure you’re living your life in a way that reflects your true values. Be careful while traveling after the 21st, as Mercury can cause all kinds of delays and breakdowns. With Mars moving into your 9th house of travel on the 16th, it could be tough to avoid. Just keep your eyes open and plan for contingencies. Another way Mars in the 9th may manifest is if you are dealing with a foreign company, or if you are pursuing higher education. You might find you have three papers due on the same day, or perhaps a client in another country is causing problems. Heck, you may just decide to do a deep dive into some books on Buddhism or take a yoga and meditation workshop. Just be careful on the 20th, when Mars will oppose Pisces in your 3rd house of communication and transportation. Mars wants to GO GO GO while Neptune wants to RELAX MAN, and they’ll be in a stand-off in your communication and travel houses. You may want to move forward with a project or plan, but something appears to be blocking you or obscuring details. Luckily, the end of the month sees Mars trine Pluto in your own sign. Although Mercury will still be retrograde (until November 12th), you should be able to make progress on this day.

October 2013 Horoscope- Sagittarius

Sagittarius, the Archer

It appears you’re wrapping up a home-related issue. Did the full moon last month complete a move? If so, your aspects continue to be good in the first few days of October. Mercury in your house of completions trines Neptune in your house of home on the 3rd, so you might be finishing up some last minute paperwork. A new moon on the 5th is proving to be quite a headache for all signs this month. For you, the new moon occurs in your house of hopes and dreams. It’s also the house that rules friendships. Normally this is an excellent place for a new moon- it’s full of happy light energy- anything is possible! Unfortunately, this moon is a real ball buster, opposing Uranus in your fifth house of love, children, and creativity, and squaring Pluto in your house of income. You might be suffering from unnecessary drama in a relationship or fighting about money with a friend, lover, or child. Sagittarius is known for being vocal with their opinions- perhaps you’re getting called out on your tendency to dominate conversations. Another option could be that you’re finally striking it out on your own-perhaps starting your business or deciding to write a novel- instead of falling back on job after job working for “the man.” New endeavors take time, so take any difficulties in stride. None of these are particularly new influences. Pluto entered your income realm in 2008 and has seen to it that you don’t get complacent in money matters. Your financial situation has probably gone through massive ebbs and flows. Additionally, Uranus has been stirring up all kinds of trouble in your 5th house since 2011. Perhaps you got unexpectedly pregnant, or have found yourself falling easily in and out of love. Since June 2012, these two planets have been in a screaming match with each other, bringing these matters to a climax. Luckily, Venus moves into your sign on the 8th, giving you charm in spades. On the 17th, Venus will trine Uranus in your 5th house of true love, making for a sexy fun time with a special beau. If you’re single, you might meet someone out of the blue. Coupled up Sags might be surprised by a romantic gesture from a loved one. This is also a great time to upgrade your wardrobe or appearance- just make sure you do it before Mercury goes retrograde on the 21st. Mercury will be in your 12th house, so you may have to go back and address a previous health or mental issue. Because Mercury rules your 7th and 10th houses, issues with your spouse or employer may come up. Watch out for the 13th, when the Sun in your friendship house will square Jupiter (your ruler) in your house of other people’s money. You may have problems with the financing of a long-term project, or perhaps you’ll have to lend money to a friend. The lunar eclipse on Oct 18th sees a love or creative project come to a climax. You might break it off with a honey or on the flip side, get engaged. Alternatively, you might discover or announce a pregnancy! Mars enters your career sector on the 16th, giving this area a boost of energy. You may get some press or be extra busy impressing VIPs. Watch out on the 20th, when Mars will oppose Neptune in your house of home. Mars stirs the pot, while Neptune casts a fog, so things could get confusing. You might be so busy at work that you’re overlooking things on the home front. The end of the month- Halloween specifically- brings good news, as Mars in your career house will trine Pluto in your 2nd house. You might end up with bonus or raise. Happy Halloween indeed! Just watch out for the Pluto/Uranus square  going on between your 2nd and 5th houses, an influence that will go into November (and ebb and flow until 2015!). You may argue with your love about money, or perhaps find that a child is costing you a lot of money.

October 2013 Horoscopes- Scorpio

The Sting of the Scorpion

Did you know that when food is scarce, scorpions have the ability to slow their metabolism down enough to survive on only one insect a year? Perhaps you’d heard that researchers discovered they were able to freeze a scorpion overnight, only to watch it thaw out and walk away the next morning. Your sign is a survivor, Scorpio, and it’s known for its ability to navigate the dark side effectively. This skill will come in handy this month, as the new moon in the darkest part of your chart, the 12th house of secrets and closure, will be harshly angled to Uranus in your house of work and health, and Pluto (your ruler!) in your house of communication. You got a taste of this last month, but because this month is powered by a new moon, things will get even messier. You might be having problems at your workplace, or having it out with an underhanded co-worker. Or maybe YOU’RE the underhanded co-worker, and your mis-deeds are finally biting you in the butt. Alternatively, you might be having transportation or health issues. If your issues are work or health related, they should be resolved by the 18th, when a lunar eclipse in your 6th brings things to climax. Know your chart? See if any planets or points fall at 25 degrees of Aries. If so, keep an eye on that area of life. Luckily, the beginning of the month starts off on a better note. On the 3rd, Mercury in your sign will trine Neptune in Pisces in your 5th house of true love. Pisces is a fellow water sign that blends beautifully with yours, and things seem to be going swimmingly in your love life. When the Sun moves into your sign near the end of the month and signals Pisces in the same way (on the 26th), things will get even better. Watch out for the 13th, when the Sun in your 12th house will square Jupiter in your 9th. Travel or education matters will go wrong on this day, or you may have problems with a publishing or broadcasting project. Also, we need to talk Mercury for a second, cause this little bugger is causing problems all month. Not only will the stinker be going retrograde on the 21st, but he’ll also be conjuncting Saturn in your sign TWICE- on the 8th and the 30th- which could cause problems with your money or friendships since Mercury rules these areas. Things should straighten out next month when Mercury goes direct on the 12th, although you have to deal with Mercury hitting Saturn in your first house of self one more time on the 26th of November. Saturn in your first house has been putting pressure on you since October 2012, and will continue to do so until 2015. October born Scorpios are finally coming out from under Saturn’s glare, but those born in early November are currently feeling the burn. Don’t fret- although it can feel rough now, any changes you’re going through are ultimately for the best. Mars enters your friendship house on the 8th, so you can expect lots of activity in that area all month. On the 20th, Mars will oppose Neptune in your 5th, making for some uneasiness surrounding love and friendship. You may have gotten friend-zoned (we’ve all been there), or perhaps you were the one who had to break the news to a lovestruck friend that you just want to be pals. Alternatively, a creative project may go awry this day. Luckily, on Halloween, Mars will trine Pluto (your ruler) in your house of communication, smoothing things over.
