INTRODUCTION TO THE FORECAST REPORT
Your Forecast report is designed to help you in your quest for self-knowledge and personal growth. It does not contain predictions -- as you probably know -- true astrology is not fortune telling. The Forecast is intended to help you recognize and use the opportunities occurring in your life; to reap your full potential; and to grow through an understanding of the lessons the planets are trying to teach during the difficult phases. It predicts a possible course of events, in which you can then use your opportunities to their full potential; or alter the effect events have on your life by transforming difficult influences to work to your advantage. Astrology, therefore, gives you an edge on life, and greater control.
Above each aspect interpretation you will see three dates - Enter, Exact, and Leave. These dates refer to the period in which the influence is felt most strongly. Some aspects only last a day or two, while others can last several weeks, months, or even years; therefore, some of them will already have been in effect when your report begins. The Enter date marks the beginning of the strongest period of the influence; the Exact date is the day on which the transit to your natal chart is exact -- and is often (though not always) the day on which it is felt the most; and the Leave date marks the date on which the planet leaves the orb of strongest influence. Where you see only Enter Start Date and Leave End Date – without an actual date -- this refers to the beginning and end of the month in which the transit is exact.
Beside each aspect date you will find a * rating from 1* - 5 *****. This rating indicates the importance of each astrological event -- a great extra benefit of this report.
You will note that some aspects interpretations are repeated in your report. Aspects sometimes repeat themselves during the course of a year, because the planets appear to move backwards and forwards in relation to the Earth, so their influence will come and go several times. (This applies also to “once-in-a-lifetime” transits, which may become exact more than once in a year, but once they leave your chart altogether, do not come round again).
The progressed planets
interpretations prepare you for both the positive and negative trends of the
period ahead. When difficult situations are indicated, it is a good idea to
consider what you might be doing; thinking, or feeling that could bring such a
situation to manifest. Difficult aspects can be worked with to further personal
growth and channel their potentially harmful features into constructive
manifestations. You will find indications of how to do this throughout your report.
“Forewarned is forearmed”.
You will sometimes note that aspects occurring during the same time period seem to be contradictory in their influence. There is nothing wrong here -- this is normal. Aspects do not conveniently occur one after the other! And, if you think about it, life is contradictory, and people are contradictory, and this is reflected in planetary movement. After you have studied your report, you will begin to feel these influences at work in your daily life: they might change in the course of a week, or often a day -- your report helps you to become sensitive to this, and then you can make your best choices and decisions in the moment, based on what you know -- for you are free to choose your course of action, and the way in which you respond to events.
After looking through your report, we recommend that you begin to study it in sections, or month by month to start with, as it contains a lot of in-depth information, difficult to digest all at once. Also, some months are more active, planetarily speaking, than others: thus you may find that some months show little activity, while in others multiple aspects occur.
Special Notice: An accurate time of birth is
required to narrow down the period of strongest influence for some of the
transits from the slower-moving planets. If you are thirty minutes out, the
transit could be a month or two out. If born earlier, it would have taken place
earlier and vice-versa.

Report for September
Sep 15 Saturn Sextile Asc Transit (Gemini-Leo 10th-1st)
**** Enter (Enter: 09/15/02 Exact: End Date Leave: 11/06/02)
During this phase you
will work on clarifying your view of yourself through other people's eyes.
Those around you whom you respect are the best reflections of yourself, but are
usually the last to tell you what they think. You will seek out these people's
opinions of you as a person and as a valuable contributor to society. Older
persons will be particularly helpful to you now. This is a favourable time to
handle legal matters or to deal with government agencies.
You take your role in
society very seriously now, and this is an excellent time to ponder your goals
and plans for the future. This is an important turning point in your life, and
decisions you make now will greatly affect your success in the years to come.
Use Saturn's influence to become more conscious of your patterns in life.
Instead of being prone to following habits -- a rather unconscious state of
mind -- begin to employ self-discipline -- a deliberate step toward taking
charge of your life. This is a good time to learn the difference between the
two.
With Saturn's influence,
you can expect to feel rather serious and business-like. It is more a time to
relax and enjoy a serious book or movie than it is a time to party. And if you
do begin to feel a little glum, remember that the somber effects of this
influence, like all things, will pass. Lighten up and enjoy those you love!
Sep 17 Saturn Sextile Mars Transit (Gemini-Leo 10th-12th)
**** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 09/17/02 Leave: End Date)
This is a good time to
direct your energies toward planning and building projects slowly and thoroughly,
and whatever new plans you undertake now will be more likely to succeed in the
long run. You have a practical and reasonable attitude now, which can help you
achieve your goals more easily. It would be a good idea to join forces with
other individuals or a group now.
You have remarkable
endurance during this period and can work long and hard to bring your ideas to
fruition. You are not in the mood to give up and will stick to projects until
they are finished; and of course you will be very thorough in all you do. You
will receive the respect of your peers and be admired by superiors and
co-workers for your abilities now.
It is easier for you to
“live by the rules” now than at other times, and your friends may wonder why
you seem to be more conservative. You exercise great discipline and will
accomplish things through hard work, not by mere luck. This is an excellent
time to undertake projects that require great attention to detail and patience,
especially for jewelers, craftsmen, builders, scientists, engineers, or
mathematicians. This is also a favourable time for the use tools and machinery.
Because you are so thorough in your work at this time, it may take you a little
longer to accomplish things. Do not allow anything, or anyone, to hurry you along:
you do best working at your own natural pace.
Sep 17 Uranus Trine Jupiter Transit (Aquarius-Gemini
6th-10th)
***** Enter (Enter: 09/17/02 Exact: End Date Leave: 12/19/02)
This Transit only occurs twice in every eighty-four year cycle
of Uranus and is traditionally known for the good luck it brings. You could
receive a significant break or windfall during this period, especially in the
form of grants, insurance, government funding or an inheritance, if
appropriate.
While this influence
lasts you may feel driven to break free from situations -- or people -- that
have been restricting you or holding you back from achieving your goals. This
liberation may be brought about through a sudden piece of good luck, or a
fortunate turn of circumstances. If even for a short time, you will have the
opportunity to have a rest from the everyday burdens of life.
Your mind is expanding
now, and you have a renewed curiosity about metaphysical and spiritual subjects
in your quest for gaining greater understanding. You are willing to consider
greater truths, which you would have thought impossible before, and you may
become involved in a group that shares these interests. The friends you make
now will be stimulating, and they will bring you spiritual inspiration.
You are highly intuitive
now and you could receive some deep and interesting insights about life. You
could become concerned with issues of world peace and the brotherhood of man.
You derive your greatest satisfaction from working toward more esoteric goals.
Sep 22 Uranus Square MC Transit (Aquarius-Taurus
6th-10th)
***** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 09/22/02 Leave: End Date)
Uranus will square your
Midheaven only twice during its eighty-four year cycle. Although you may not
realise it on a conscious level, you are in a phase where you need to obtain
greater freedom at home and at work. As a result you may experience a sudden
desire to change your direction in life and to rebel against restrictions or
behaviour patterns of the past. One danger with this influence is that you will
act impulsively in an effort to bring about change without carefully
considering all of the consequences of your actions.
If you have been living a
rigidly structured life, you are more likely to react radically to this influence.
The more flexible you have been, the more likely you will be to make needed
changes without totally disrupting your life. If you have obediently served
others most of your life, you will feel more compulsive about having things
your way now.
Sometimes this influence
evokes intense disagreements with or concerning parents. You may become free of
some particular parental programming of long ago that is not compatible with
your current experience of life. This can be a time when young people break away
from overly restrictive parental influence.
You are also likely to
encounter exciting opportunities for increased freedom of expression at this
time. For example, you may find that you are able to work as your own boss and
be successful doing what you enjoy. Or long-time restrictions in your life may
suddenly disappear, allowing you more room for growth.
If you are unwilling to
recognize the need for change in your life, however, you will probably
experience problems in your work or at home during this period. On the other
hand, if your life has been running fairly smoothly until now, you are not
likely to experience severe difficulties; although some adjustments will be
required. If you resist making changes at this time, they are likely to occur anyway.
It is best that you are flexible; that you relax and "go with the
flow" as much as possible. This influence can help rid you of the need to
live by others' standards and expectations. Just remember to THINK before you
ACT and you will turn this planetary influence to your advantage.
Sep 24 Moon Conjunct Asc Secondary Progression (Leo-Leo 1st-1st)
*** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 09/24/02 Leave: 10/24/02)
This marks the start of a
new twenty-eight year progressed lunar cycle through the twelve houses. It is a
significant time of renewal and important new emotional beginnings. You may
decide to relocate, change jobs, pursue further education, marry, have a child,
or make other alterations in your personal life. Major changes are likely in
matters ruled by the Moon and fourth house such as the family, one's domestic
life, real estate, women in general, the public, one's mother, and significant
endings. A change of residence or a greater appreciation for where you live now
is highlighted. Food takes on more importance for you in this period, and there
could be a tendency to gain weight -- a good time to exercise self-discipline
where eating is concerned.
The next two plus years
will be a time of emotional sensitivity and fluctuation. You are in a nurturing
mode, and very intuitive about what people want and need; this can lead to much
success if you act on these instincts. Your emotional responses to people are
heightened: be careful of being overly sensitive to any real or imagined
slights. As the Moon crosses the Ascendant, hidden issues or psychological
concerns that were stirred up during its just completed progression through the
12th house may now come to light.
Sep 26 Moon Conjunct Mars Secondary Progression (Leo-Leo 1st-12th)
*** Leave (Enter: Begin Date Exact: Begin Date Leave: 09/26/02)
For a month or two before
and after this date you may experience intense emotions, irritability, or
flashes of temper -- patience is in short supply, and you feel a little rough
around the edges. You may also become the brunt of someone else's aggressive
impulses. It would be wise to keep your cool and avoid confrontations with
explosive or emotionally unstable individuals. You desire change and adventure,
and acting on instinct is a major part of your life pattern now. However,
excessive haste or rash behaviour can leave you vulnerable to accident or
injury. There may be an opportunity to travel. In a man's chart, this influence
may correlate with a marriage. On occasion it can indicate the birth of a child.
Report for October
Oct 01 Uranus Trine Saturn Transit (Aquarius-Libra 6th-3rd)
***** Exact (Enter: 09/01/02 Exact: 10/01/02 Leave: End Date)
This Transit occurs only twice in each eighty-four year cycle of
Uranus and presents an opportunity for learning to balance your need for
freedom and your responsibilities in life. It is not difficult for you to
recognise your limitations now, and to see them as guiding you rather than
restricting you in your efforts to achieve your goals. You understand that
freedom and responsibility are two sides of the same coin, and that one is
necessary for the success of the other.
You are well organised
and orderly in your undertakings and can accomplish a great deal through
careful planning and perseverance. You feel a desire to implement constructive
changes in the world around you, and you are eager to learn to do so. This is a
good time to study any subject that has seemed too technical and complicated
before. You are especially interested in science and electronics, as well as
metaphysical sciences such as astrology.
You may make changes in
your professional life, and you can benefit greatly from the many innovative
ideas that come to you. Your supervisors will notice you and may award
recognition for your achievements. A promotion is possible during this time, or
at the very least a change that will make your job more exciting and
fulfilling. You may join others in a group effort to bring about social or
global change. Or it is possible that you will find a way to work within the
"system" itself to bring about beneficial results. You are likely to
make new friends through work with organisations and groups.
Oct 27 Pluto Trine Venus Transit (Sagittarius-Leo
4th-12th)
***** Exact (Enter: 09/03/02 Exact: 10/27/02 Leave: 11/25/02)
This Transit occurs only once in your life and is a very
favourable time for your love life. During this phase you may form a new love
relationship, or deepen an existing one. Any new love will bring passion and
intense feelings -- there is nothing casual about relationships begun under
this influence. It may seem as though fate has brought you together almost
against your will, and a relationship begun now will have profound significance
for both of you. You and your partner will learn a great deal about yourselves
through your relationship.
In an existing
relationship you will reach new depths of feeling and understanding that you
previously had not considered possible. New truths will be uncovered and faced,
and this will most likely bring you closer together. Your passion and mutual
feelings of devotion are stronger now and you are more willing than ever to
deal with things that you have avoided in the past.
If you are involved in
the arts or music this could be a time of tremendous creativity. Your stronger,
more intense feelings will be reflected in your work in a profound way. You may
well achieve the success and recognition that you have always sought. In
general, your finances should improve during this time.
Whether you experience
this Transit mostly through love or through creativity, it is
certain that you will not settle for anything superficial. You are seeking
transcendental experiences, and those you find will change your life forever.
You will look back at yourself after this Transit ends and be amazed that you have
changed so profoundly in such a short time.
Oct 27 Jupiter Conjunct Venus Transit (Leo-Leo 12th-12th)
**** Exact (Enter: 10/19/02 Exact: 10/27/02 Leave: 11/06/02)
During this Transit, which occurs once every twelve years, your close
personal relationships will be more harmonious, and you can use this time to
smooth any ruffled feathers. You feel a deep longing for peace and love so you
are more likely to compromise now. This is a very sociable time, and you enjoy
having your loved ones around you. It is a great time to have a party or go out
on the town with friends. You will receive a lot of attention and can lean back
and enjoy it. It is an excellent time for travel or for business dealings
involving art, music or cultural activities.
Sometimes this Transit will bring a new love interest, especially if there
are other Transits happening around this time that echo this effect.
A relationship formed now will be unusually successful and will teach both of
you a great deal. It will contain much love and also a respect for each other's
personal freedom. There would be little jealousy or suspicion between you.
Existing relationships will also improve at this time. It is easy for you to be
yourself and relate to others, and you are a pleasure to be around now.
You feel like spending
money now and your tastes are on the costly side. You may be drawn to fancy or
expensive gadgets. This is one of the pitfalls of this influence, however. Be careful
what you buy now. You may not think it so appealing when this time has passed.
This aspect can also
indicate a windfall or increase your resources. Just be sure your attitude does
not become "easy come, easy go." Although it may seem things will always
be this good, this free flow of resources will slow down once the Transit has passed, so save some of your bounty for leaner
days. You may be tempted to over-indulge in food or drink. Remember
--everything in moderation. You enjoy surrounding yourself with peace and
happiness now and appreciate the beauty of life. Just do not overdo it.
Report for November
Nov 04 Saturn Sextile Mars Transit (Gemini-Leo 10th-12th)
**** Exact (Enter: Begin Date Exact: 11/04/02 Leave: 11/22/02)

Dec 06 Uranus Trine Saturn Transit (Aquarius-Libra 6th-3rd)

Dec 14 Uranus Square MC Transit (Aquarius-Taurus

Uranus will square your
Midheaven only twice during its eighty-four year cycle. Although you may not

Dec 20 Saturn Trine Saturn Transit (Gemini-Libra 10th-3rd)
**** Exact (Enter: 12/08/02 Exact: 12/20/02 Leave: 01/02/03)
This is an excellent time
to reflect on where you have been and where you are going in life. You have a
clearer understanding of who you are, and what you want to make of your life
and have the patience and careful planning skills at this time to make the most
of it. The solid foundations that you establish now will serve you well in the
future.
You are able to think
back over your past experiences and gain the most from them. This does not mean
you dwell on the past, but you will be able to see the value of your experience
and the wisdom you have gained over the years. You are able to see any
"failures" as valuable lessons. This gives you the understanding you
need to plan effectively for the future.
This is a good time to
make progress in your career or business. Because of your heightened sense of honesty
and integrity, employers or clients appreciate your expertise now more than
ever and will spread word about you to others. This is an excellent time to
negotiate or sign business contracts. Your personal relationships will also be
more stable during this time frame.
Dec 27 Saturn Conjunct Jupiter Transit (Gemini-Gemini
10th-10th)
**** Exact (Enter: 12/15/02 Exact: 12/27/02 Leave: 01/09/03)
This Transit occurs only once in each twenty-eight to thirty
year cycle of Saturn and combines the serious, restrictive energy of Saturn
with the jubilant and expansive influence of Jupiter. The result can be the
best of both, if you can pull it off.
Saturn gives you patience
and self-discipline with which to plan and build structures in your life, and
Jupiter brings optimism and a strong desire for growth. These two can either
operate in balance with or at odds to each other. Saturn can dampen Jupiter's
optimism with its own pessimism or Jupiter can ignore Saturn's better counsel
and act impulsively and rashly. It is up to you to balance these influences in
your life.
You will be able to work
incredibly hard on the areas of your life that are working out, but you may
become impatient with those that are not and begin to rebel against the
limitations you live with. Although you may feel more confident and optimistic
at times, you can also see the need for caution and will (hopefully) curb any
impulsiveness. Drawing upon both the careful planning of Saturn and the good
luck of Jupiter, this is a good time for professional and legal matters. Other
common manifestations of this Transit are change of job or residence, seclusion from
others due to hard work, and the need to tighten your finances to make ends
meet.
Report for January
Jan 08 Saturn Square Mercury Transit (Gemini-Virgo 10th-1st)
**** Exact (Enter: 12/26/02 Exact: 01/08/03 Leave: 01/24/03)
This is a time of
intellectual conflict and disagreement with others. Others may challenge your
points of view and communication in general will be problematic. You may feel
you have to defend yourself and justify your beliefs. This may lead to feelings
of depression because no one seems to understand you or be sympathetic to your
opinions. You may even sever relationships with others (or at least think about
it) because of such disagreements.
Refrain from making
important decisions until this Transit has passed because there is a serious danger of
miscommunication. Your viewpoint is limited to your own outlook, and you may
not be able to see the whole picture now. You are more pessimistic than usual
and may not be able to recognise true opportunities when they come your way.
If you are aware of this
tension between you and others, you can avoid conflict and work toward a
mutually satisfactory resolution of any problems that arise. Avoid allowing
your thinking to be inflexible. The purpose of this Transit is to prompt you to re-examine ideas and beliefs
you have held for years to see if they are still valid.
Perhaps it is time to
broaden your way of seeing things in certain areas. The challenges you receive
from others will help you do this. Do not ignore this call to restructure your
thinking. If you do, the upcoming stressful Transits of Saturn to your Mercury will
be even more difficult times for you. If you can incorporate necessary changes
now, you can save yourself difficulties later on.
Jan 09 Saturn Sextile Pluto Transit (Gemini-Leo 10th-12th)
**** Exact (Enter: 12/27/02 Exact: 01/09/03 Leave: 01/26/03)
You are able to see
yourself clearly now and to understand what makes you tick. You are
determinedly ambitious and can achieve a great deal if you will focus your
attention on one project. You feel strong and powerful and are able to
withstand considerable difficulty if you have to. Your ability to concentrate
is enhanced and you are willing to work very hard to accomplish your goals. You
have a keen sense of how hard you can push yourself without exceeding your
limits.
If you can develop a
strong sense of self-discipline you will maximise the results of your efforts.
This is an excellent time to do research or undertake other tasks that require
in-depth examination and focus. With this "laser beam" effect you can
conserve your energy and yet get tremendous results, applying a limited amount
of energy and attention at the right time and place. This is an excellent time
to pursue a promotion or change to a more challenging job.
Others will respect your
hard work and self-discipline now. This is partially because they can see
changes in you as an individual. They see that you have given your all and that
your success is a reflection of the growth you are undergoing at a deep
psychological level. This is a favourable time to study science, mathematics or
metaphysics. You could also benefit financially through investment,
inheritance, or grants.
Jan 10 Jupiter Conjunct Venus Transit (Leo-Leo 12th-12th)
**** Exact (Enter: 12/31/02 Exact: 01/10/03 Leave: 01/19/03)
During this Transit, which occurs once every twelve years, your close
personal relationships will be more harmonious, and you can use this time to
smooth any ruffled feathers. You feel a deep longing for peace and love so you
are more likely to compromise now. This is a very sociable time, and you enjoy
having your loved ones around you. It is a great time to have a party or go out
on the town with friends. You will receive a lot of attention and can lean back
and enjoy it. It is an excellent time for travel or for business dealings
involving art, music or cultural activities.
Sometimes this Transit will bring a new love interest, especially if there
are other Transits happening around this time that echo this effect.
A relationship formed now will be unusually successful and will teach both of
you a great deal. It will contain much love and also a respect for each other's
personal freedom. There would be little jealousy or suspicion between you.
Existing relationships will also improve at this time. It is easy for you to be
yourself and relate to others, and you are a pleasure to be around now.
You feel like spending
money now and your tastes are on the costly side. You may be drawn to fancy or
expensive gadgets. This is one of the pitfalls of this influence, however. Be
careful what you buy now. You may not think it so appealing when this time has
passed.
This aspect can also
indicate a windfall or increase your resources. Just be sure your attitude does
not become "easy come, easy go." Although it may seem things will
always be this good, this free flow of resources will slow down once the Transit has passed, so save some of your bounty for leaner
days. You may be tempted to over-indulge in food or drink. Remember
--everything in moderation. You enjoy surrounding yourself with peace and
happiness now and appreciate the beauty of life. Just do not overdo it.
Report for February
Feb 05 Saturn Trine Neptune Transit (Gemini-Libra
10th-2nd)
**** Exact (Enter: 01/15/03 Exact: 02/05/03 Leave: End Date)
Your interest in the
spiritual life and studies that raise your level of consciousness is enhanced
during this period. This is a good time to study metaphysics, occult sciences,
or to participate in consciousness raising activities or other spiritual
disciplines such as yoga or meditation. The “Fourth Way” esoteric teaching, of
P. D. Ouspensky and G. I. Gurdjieff could offer what you seek at this time. You
will find ways to apply new spiritual awareness in your everyday life rather
than just talk about higher truths abstractly. This influence enables the practical
application of higher knowledge in your daily life.
During this period your
ego drives will not be as strong, and you are likely to find self-expression in
more altruistic activities. You may feel like volunteering time to a worthy
cause or otherwise helping others for the sake of giving rather than receiving
some material reward. This would be very beneficial for you now, and you could
achieve much by working in conjunction with similarly motivated people in
groups. Although you feel very idealistic now, you are grounded enough to know
how to practically apply your principles in everyday life.
Friends and associates
from your past resurface and may offer great assistance in your career, as well
as on your spiritual path. Your intuition is keen; you may receive profound
insights concerning your life goals. You will engage in peaceful moments of
reflection as you examine the world around and within you. You understand that
patience is required to achieve your ideal, and you are willing to wait and to
work hard for what you want. Many of the doubts and uncertainties you have felt
in past years will disappear: at the same time you understand how necessary
they were in forming your new way of seeing the world. Your calm, detached
manner shows how much you have learned during this time.
Feb 05 Pluto Square Sun Transit (Sagittarius-Virgo
4th-1st)
***** Exact (Enter: 01/03/03 Exact: 02/05/03 Leave: End Date)
This Transit will only occur once in your life. It can represent
quite a traumatic time, as you will encounter many challenges in this period.
If you are sure of who you are and what motivates you, this Transit will go fairly well. Otherwise, you will learn a
lot about yourself through crises and through change, some of which could be
quite drastic. It is a time when your basic life direction and sense of purpose
may be tested by sensitive and very personal matters. Questions of
vulnerability and insecurity may arise. You may have to tread with care.
You are highly ambitious
now and if you are a strong-willed person, you could be aggressive and even
ruthless in your effort to achieve your goals. This will, of course, stir up
opposition from others who feel threatened by you. Do not lose sight of others'
needs while you pursue your goals. They may want to share in the success, and
if they have earned it, you must give them that. Learning to share power with
others is part of Pluto's lesson for you. The problem is that you do not feel
like compromising right now. You tend to want it all, and nothing less.
On the other hand, if you
are a person who has already learned the art of compromise, you may learn a
lesson from this influence by having another person -- probably a man – attempt
to bully you. If this is the case, Pluto's lesson is to learn to
stand up for your rights and resist being pushed around. Either way, the issue
of power is a strong one. This type of power play is most likely to occur in
your professional life, but may also be seen on the home front.
The energy of Pluto is very powerful, and it brings massive changes in
its wake. This can express itself physically; and you may experience a sort of
physical breakdown if you resist the transformational energies of Pluto. Or
perhaps everything in your world may suddenly seem to be falling apart and
disintegrating. Avoid physical fights now; the energies that are present are
too powerful and unpredictable. Be careful not to provoke others to assault
you; you are more prone to attract that type of energy now. This is a time to
avoid dark alleys.
The best expression of
this Transit is to work with determination toward your goals in
life while remaining aware of the needs and sensitivities of others. Force
yourself to hear the other side of every story and to practise compromise when
it is called for. If the Pluto energy is directed outward in a positive manner,
it will not turn back on you negatively.
Feb 12 Uranus Opposite Asc Transit (Aquarius-Leo 6th-1st)
***** Enter (Enter: 02/12/03 Exact: End Date Leave: End Date)
This Transit occurs only once in every eighty-four year cycle of
Uranus. Its influence could be a source of extreme upheaval in your personal
relationships. Long-time close friends may suddenly seem distant or unreliable,
or your partner may suddenly insist on more freedom and spontaneity. You will
be forced to restructure your relationships so they become more flexible. If
you or your partner has felt repressed, the tension will build to a breaking
point now. If you have been withholding secrets from each other, this is the
time they may be brought into the open. Major changes are not optional now, but
mandatory.
This
influence is likely to have its strongest effect on the area of committed
relationships. If there have been power struggles between you and your partner,
this is the time to confront and resolve them. Even the best marriages will
experience more conflict and arguments now, and break-ups are common under this
planetary influence. A solid relationship, however, will endure the effects of
this influence and be strengthened through the changes you initiate. Business
partnerships will also be similarly affected.
Avoid becoming involved in legal conflicts at
this time, for your energy is tense and you could even tend to violence. Your
opponents may see you as rebellious and arrogant, and are likely to respond by
trying to bring you down a peg or two. Try to develop patience and diplomacy
should you encounter legal disputes.
Feb 13 Uranus Opposite Mars Transit (Aquarius-Leo 6th-12th)
***** Exact (Enter: 01/26/03 Exact: 02/13/03 Leave: End Date)
The issue of freedom and
rebellion against restrictions will present itself in your life now. Either you
will feel the need to strike out against oppressive forces, or others will
rebel against your efforts to place restrictions on them. The combination of
Uranus and Mars is a powerful one, and this Transit -- the opposition -- will only
happen once in every eighty-four years, so that for most it is
a-once-in-a-lifetime Transit.
You react strongly to
challenges and will pick up most any gauntlet that is thrown at your feet. It
is not difficult to start a quarrel with you, and you may even start a few your
self. Be sure not to suppress your resentment or anger, for it will burst forth
with unprecedented force. Learn, instead to talk about what is bothering you
when it happens. Do not allow your grievances to build up to volcanic
proportions. Such an inner cauldron could cause physical illness, or accidents
if you are not careful, especially involving sharp objects, machinery
(including automobiles), electricity, firearms, or explosives. Be careful of
becoming aggressive with supervisors or authority figures, especially the
police.
If you try to pretend
that nothing is wrong and that you are cool as a cucumber, events will take
place that will force your pent-up anger and frustration to the surface.
Explosions are quite common under this influence. No, you are not becoming
insane and totally losing control. The Transit will eventually pass. In the
meantime, learn to co-operate with the energies of Uranus and Mars by asserting
yourself when appropriate, in an appropriate way.
Be willing to implement
needed changes in your life -- both inner and outer during this period. Do not
hide your head in the sand and wait for these energies to go away. Taking
action to make changes -- even if they seem rather radical -- is the best way
to make use of this influence. Many issues are being forced to your attention
in order that you may deal with them. Be willing to depart from your previously
held beliefs and codes of behaviour. But remember, your aim must be to assert
yourself in such a way as to take the other person’s needs and predicament into
account as well.
Feb 26 Moon Sextile Moon Secondary Progression (Virgo-Scorpio 1st-3rd)
*** Exact (Enter: 01/27/03 Exact: 02/26/03 Leave: End Date)
For a month or two before
and after this date you will experience and create increased emotional harmony
and domestic tranquility. Other people -- family members in particular -- seem
especially appreciative and supportive. You have a knack for knowing what
people want deep down inside now, and this can be a real asset in your dealings
with the public. Your popularity increases, and your relationships with women
and with the public at large are favoured. You desire increased intimacy and
rapport with others, and friendships prosper. Emotional support tends to be
available when you need it. This aspect may indicate a pregnancy, marriage, or
birth in the family, if appropriate. Matters related to real estate or domestic
needs should go well.
