In March, May and November Jupiter makes a helpful link to Uranus. If you wish to start up your own company, or make some innovative moves in your career direction, now is the time to put this into action. Never before have you been given such blessings from the Cosmos to achieve your goals. Take bold and decisive measures to consolidate your aspirations and you will be totally dazzled by the results.

In November Saturn opposes Uranus which can be a difficult time not only in your personal and home life, but also in your career aims. You may find that onerous obligations on the home front impede your success and goals at this time. You may be required to look after someone elderly or who is confined to your home base and this will take its toll on you unless you find ways to alleviate your stress levels.

During the next twelve months, the ‘greater benefic’ Jupiter will occupy your sector of wills, legacies, the goods of the deceased, loans, your partner’s income or any other shared resource and will go into retrograde (backwards) phase for five months between May and early September. You may become aware of some benefit or other financial gain that involves any of the above issues. It is also a time to question what your real values and rights are and set about putting your affairs in order. Your marriage or business partner may become very wealthy during this time. Whatever occurs will be shared generously in your direction. The retrograde phase can give you another viewpoint to consider in relation to this area of your life, and when this planet goes direct (January to early April and September to December) you will have a better understanding of your part in relation to these matters.

Saturn the taskmaster of the zodiac will continue to occupy your sector of home and family matters and your early upbringing up until November 2009. Saturn however, will be in retrograde motion (backwards) between January and April. This may be a time when you make a major purchase of a home and property that could obligate you for several years to come. It can also mean that the responsibilities of home ownership seem heavy and associated with too many burdens. A family member, especially an elderly one, may come to stay with you. During the retrograde phase you can sit back and perhaps see why you have chosen this time to be so tied down to your home. During the direct phase (between May and the end of the year) you will come to realize that this was the foundation you had to lay for your future security.

Uranus, the planet of change, will continue to occupy your sector of career, reputation, status and how you are seen in the eyes of the world, during which time he will be in retrograde phase between late June and late November 2008. This often brings huge changes to where you are in terms of your position in life and can offer unpredictable leaps and bounds up the ladder of success. During the retrograde phase it may seem that the changes are coming at you thick and fast so this can be a hectic time when you feel you cannot cope with so much going on. During the direct phase (January to June and again late November to June 2009) these changes will feel more comfortable and convince you that you are now on the most appropriate path.

Neptune the planet of mystery, will continue to occupy your sector of travel, higher education, studies and connections to foreign people or places, though will go into retrograde (backwards) phase between late May and up to the end of October 2008. This can be an interesting time where your mind and imagination are stimulated to a very high degree. It is a fabulous time to write a book where your creative talents are put to good use. However, it can also cloud your mind with imaginary thoughts that are not based in reality. During the retrograde phase you are perhaps in a more reflective mode of thought than at other times. During the direct phase (January to May and November to December) you will be able to conjure up anything you can imagine and put this to good use through art, music or writing.

Pluto, the transformer of the zodiac will now occupy your sector of wills, legacies, the goods of the deceased, loans, your partner’s income or any other shared resource (with the exception of a retrograde phase back into your sector of marriage and business partnerships and any public presentations between mid June and late November). There is often a major shift in consciousness and the understanding of what is the truth of our lives during this very long transit of many years duration. During the retrograde phase you may notice that you are observant of all that is going on around you and try to come to grips with the realities of life and death. A transformation of attitude is possible and during the direct phase (January to March 2008 and again from September to the end of the year) you may come to a complete change in your understanding of the complexities of life, and this can also indicate an inheritance.
