CAPRICORN
December 21 – January 19
The most influential event for January
and possibly all of 2015 actually takes
place on December 23rd of 2014.
On this day, your ruling planet Saturn
moves to accent existing obligations
and future plans, beginning a cycle
of review. Urgent as decisions seem,
first focus on de-cluttering your life,
especially unrewarding activities and
alliances. This clears your mind. This
also commences a two-year cycle of
strategic thinking and planning. Better
yet, you’ll be exploring ideas or offers
that, only months ago, you’d never have
considered.
AQUARIUS
January 20 – February 17
Mostly, planning ahead iswise. But during
January it will only cause confusion. The
trick is to think ahead but ensure that
both arrangements and your thinking
are flexible. This enables you to explore
ideas or offers different from anything
you’d previously considered, yet without
concern about the changes these would
trigger. Most important is the fresh
perspective these bring to longstanding
elements of your life, especially around
the Aquarius NewMoon on the 20th. This
ushers in a new, and intriguing, cycle.
PISCES
February 18 – March 19
During late December and early January,
you face a series of disappointments.
Although most are minor, they make
you realise cer tain once-valued
arrangements, personal and more
worldly, are no longer rewarding. This
is timely, as it’s preparing you for
the cycle of review and action that
comes with Mars’ presence in Pisces
from 12 January until 20 February.
During this period you’ll do something
difficult, which is put yourself first.
With circumstances shifting, often
dramatically, make any necessary
decisions but view them as tentative.
GEMINI
May 21 – June 20
Those around you – friends, family
and colleagues – will be focusing on
decisions. Discuss their ideas but ensure
your position and, indeed, your thinking
remain flexible. What you learn is
broadening your horizons, enough that
you’re eager to learn more about what’s
possible. Equally, certain individuals you
meet will become important in the future.
Explore until mid-January, when you’ll
need to formulate plans. Still, with the
actual circumstances involved changing
until well into February, each day offers
both undiscovered ideas and intriguing
opportunities.
ARIES
March 20 – April 19
January divides neatly into two portions.
Its first begins in early December of
2014, when ideas and encounters
spark excitement. This continues during
January’s first half. It’s fun, which makes
your biggest challenge choosing which
intriguing offers to pursue. On the
12th, however, your ruler Mars moves
into the most strategic portion of your
chart, raising questions about those
activities. This timely review gets you
thinking about longstanding goals and
how, and if, you can create a balance
between the two.
TAURUS
April 20 – May 20
Impossible as it seems, you’re making
decisions while still exploring your
options. Ordinarily you’d gather
information, take time to reflect, then
focus on planning. Once you become
accustomed to doing all three at once,
you learn to ensure decisions are
flexible enough that you can alter
them as you learn more. Better yet,
this inquisitive mood leads to exciting
ideas and encounters. By the New
Moon, on the 20th, you’re viewing your
existing options and future plans from
a completely unexpected and more
optimistic perspective.
