YOUR STARS FOR 2011
ARIES
ROMANCE & RELATIONSHIPS
SINGLES:
Venus in Sagittarius from the 8th of January will spice up your love life with little to risk. Most new partners will be highly compatible so long as you don’t have any negative issues. If you do then they are likely to help you get rid of any undesirable baggage that may have been getting in the way of your happiness. This is a perfect time to switch to a more permanent relationship rather than playing the field.
CURRENT ONES:
Saturn in your opposite sign of Libra can mean some restrictions being felt by your ongoing relationship. Some of you will be asking yourselves whether or not you are likely to be better off facing conflicts with your partners or letting things go. It is essentially a maturing period for both of you so only good will come of this period. Make the changes necessary and you will be glad you did.
FINANCE & SPECULATION:
Jupiter will remain in Aries until the 4th of June. Make the most of the major benefits you are likely to experience in that time. Most of you will find improvements with finance until then, as people will be more helpful to you with any new money ideas you may have. After that date be a little more careful so you do not suffer from over-committing yourself financially.
CAREER:
Uranus goes into Aries from March
13th. That can bring a lot of sudden opportunities in your work that can lead
to a more exciting time for you. Certainly there will be a great deal of change
with your work environment and with colleagues. One example of this is a higher
turnover of co-workers coming or leaving the work space. Even the premises
you work in could change, perhaps because of a change of office address.

TAURUS
ROMANCE & RELATIONSHIPS
SINGLES:
Mars and Pluto in opposite signs in the first half of August could lead you to blow your top if you’re not careful. Doing so can clear the air so long as it’s justified. It can also mean a new partner who is a little obsessive when it comes to your time. They may want you to be around them 24/7, and will drive you nuts should that be the case. Getting rid of them quickly may be doing both of you a favour.
CURRENT ONES:
Venus and Mars together in your sign in May can mean an intense emotional period for the two of you. You will benefit from this as it will represent a little spring cleaning in your emotional life. If you have found that the two of you have been less affectionate of late then now is the time to fix that problem. Being as open as possible will ensure that the two of you will stick up for each other when times are tough.
FINANCE & SPECULATION:
Pluto goes direct in Capricorn from the 16th of September. This is a great time to deal with new financial projects that you have been feeling frustrated about. Being diplomatic at this time will put you on a better footing than if you take things for granted. At the same time do not allow others to take your time for granted, as you will not have the time to waste repairing any damage others create in your name.
CAREER:
Up until August the 29th, you will find career changes easy to make happen. After that date, however, you may be better off staying put, as your opportunities are likely to dry up for awhile. If such should be the case, make the most of the situation you find yourself in, so as to consolidate your position. That can mean that you will be able to make your position more comfortable so long as you do not get too pushy with those around you.
GEMINI
ROMANCE & RELATIONSHIPS:
SINGLES:
With Jupiter in Aries it is high time this year to connect with a new partner who gives their all. Fortunately for you they will come into your life early on in the year. If you can handle the depths of their passion you will strike it rich from that point of view. This is not a relationship made in heaven unless you can avoid being stressed out by their apparent frivolous nature. The truth is this new love deep down wants the full deal. Just play ball.
CURRENT ONES:
Those of you with an adventurous spirit or adventurous partners will find yourselves taking sudden trips decided upon at the last minute. This will energise your relationship in such a way as to put you in a happy state of mind for most of the year. The only way things can go south is if either party resents the other’s newly activated sense of discovery. Once this year is over the two of you will be able to return to a sense of normality.
FINANCE & SPECULATION:
This is a year when stepping back from taking risks financially will likely save your bacon. This will mainly be due to difficult aspects from Jupiter that will likely put you in an overly optimistic frame of mind. Over committing your dough may also prove unwise if you end up needing it for projects you already have going. Next year is much better for taking chances of this nature. A large sum of money could come your way around the end of November.
CAREER:
If the last few years have not yielded much in the way of advancement regarding your work get ready for some positive changes fairly soon. Most of this will come from new work you may have been doing. The good news is that this is likely to lead to a brand new career direction. There is also likelihood that you will be given a lot more autonomy in this new position. This will be great for anyone who is self-employed.
CANCER
ROMANCE & RELATIONSHIPS
SINGLES:
With Pluto in your opposite sign of Capricorn all of this year, you are going to be challenged in all sorts of ways. New relationships will be intense and there may be one or two obsessive types joining the fray. If you also happen to be obsessive about how you feel, prepare for a roller coaster ride. This need not be bad for you, but if all should go sour for you, whatever you do let go of the unproductive relationship as soon as practicable.
CURRENT ONES:
Jupiter in Pisces until March the 12th can help soften the Pluto intensity and enable you both to be a little kinder to each other. Now would be a perfect time to negotiate changes you might both want to see happen in your joint relationship. As you often need to have your own space, if you feel crowded then by all means let your partner know. If it is the other way round be prepared to compromise and smooth things out.
FINANCE & SPECULATION:
Neptune goes into Pisces on the 5th of April, giving you a much easier time financially. Your intuition will flow more, allowing you to trust your feelings. There will certainly be less of a chance for you to get lost in your thoughts. Thinking too much about things is what is most likely to have got you into difficulty in the first place. Confusion arises when you doubt your feelings, in turn causing you to mistrust what your heart is saying to you.
CAREER:
As Mars goes into your sign on
the 4th of August, be prepared for new sources of income and responsibility.
The frustrations of the last 12 months should disappear, giving your self-esteem
a much needed boost. The only danger is that you may be too eager to jump
into something new before you have properly studied all the opportunities.
Do not make an agreement that you may regret.

LEO
ROMANCE & RELATIONSHIPS
SINGLES:
When Jupiter goes into Aries from January the 23rd until June the 4th you will find new people who come into your life being highly compatible with you. Their generosity of spirit may in fact be what attracts you to them in the first place. They are also likely to be spontaneous and exciting partners to have. The downside is that they can get bored easily and as a result be overly changeable.
CURRENT ONES:
Saturn in Libra all of this year brings about a tendency to get real about your relationship. However, during its sojourn from the 26th of January to the 12th of June, a retrograde effect could cause you to overreact a little too much when things go wrong. This could undermine what might otherwise be a very good relationship by bringing about unnecessary tensions. Step back from any stress that may be introduced in the first half of the year.
FINANCE & SPECULATION:
As Venus goes into Sagittarius on the 8th of January, it will hit your money sector in a very positive way, introducing a strong element of luck into the equation. Be prepared for some kind of lotto wins, big or small. Now is a good time to begin a favourable money cycle. One way is to select a set of numbers that you might wish to use over and over again until you experience a major gain. The fact that you began the cycle under positive aspects will help.
CAREER:
From the 13th of June to the end of the year you are likely to have good career changes. If you are in the market for that to happen, then this need not mean a complete change in terms of what you want to be doing. At the very least it can mean a promotion or raise that improves your position in your work. The best that can happen if you are ready for such an event is either a new job within the job you are doing or something brand new.
VIRGO
ROMANCE & RELATIONSHIPS
SINGLES:
Uranus in Pisces opposite your sun sign can bring about sudden changes when it comes to new lovers. They will either be very changeable or at the very least eccentric in the way they relate emotionally. Whilst you may have to draw the line if they pull out an S & M kit complete with whips and the like, don’t be too hard on them, as they may still have a lot of love to give.
CURRENT ONES:
When Mars goes into Virgo from the 12th of November until the end of the year, your relationship will definitely become more energised. A renewed sense of interest in each other can lead to a heightened mental and emotional connection that will bring you both a lot closer. If things have not been going smoothly of late then that is about to change. You also may find fantasies turning into realities at this time.
FINANCE & SPECULATION:
During January Jupiter will join Uranus in Pisces. This can give you a much more positive financial period, with the strongest cycle being in January. Any partnerships that can be of a financial nature are likely to work out well for all concerned. The early period may be a bit stressful, but as time goes by the advantages will outweigh the negatives. October is another good time for finances to grow.
CAREER:
If you are looking for a greater sense of stability with your work, this year is the best time for that to occur. When Mars goes into Taurus on the 12th of May, whatever position you hold at that time should be the best you can hope for until 2012. The good news is you are less likely to suffer loss of position; the worst is that you are still likely to remain a tad unfulfilled if the work itself is less than what you want.
LIBRA
ROMANCE & RELATIONSHIPS
SINGLES:
Saturn is in Libra all year, so ambitions you have had for awhile will begin to be fulfilled. Of course this still requires you to follow through on whatever needs doing to help make things happen. Expect delays from January the 26th until June the 12th, when Saturn will be retrograde. All other times are good for the ideal person to walk into your life. If you decide you want them to stay be aware that they could end up staying for good.
CURRENT ONES:
On the 13th of March Uranus goes into your opposite sign of Aries. This can trigger positive opportunities so long as the two of you are open to working together despite stress being part of the situation. Travel together should go well in the second half of the year, the further away the better. This will help you both regain the closeness you once had should you have drifted apart in any way.
FINANCE & SPECULATION:
Most of this year will have Neptune in Aquarius, favourably enhancing your sense of intuition. From a money point of view there is a lot of good that can come your way if you follow your feelings. Any new financial ventures should end well, particularly if they are started earlier in the year. However, if something should look good, but not feel so good, leave well enough alone.
CAREER:
This year it is best to continue what you are doing work wise, unless of course you are between jobs. New projects will arrive spontaneously, giving you a totally new set of experiences to draw from. Major changes are more likely to happen next year, so this year it is best to consolidate your position rather than become impatient. Studies would be one way you could pass your time while you wait.
SCORPIO
ROMANCE & RELATIONSHIPS
SINGLES:
Mercury and Venus will both be in your sun sign in October. Both planets hitting your sun will increase any erotic feelings you may have with a greater intensity. Not only will you fantasise more about potential partners, but others may fantasise about you as well. The upshot of all this intensity is that your ability to visualise future people coming into your life will yield near immediate results.
CURRENT ONES:
Pluto goes direct on the 16th of September, favourably aspecting your sign. You should notice a much better balance affecting your long term partnership, with a clearing of the cobwebs as far as emotions are concerned. For many of you this will remove any build-up in tensions that may have occurred of late. Be aware that if your partner is on the way out, now may be a good time to start waving goodbye.
FINANCE & SPECULATION:
Jupiter is opposing your sun sign this year, but contrary to most interpretations, this can still be quite a good year money wise. When Mars goes into Cancer in August, the whole month should be exceedingly favourable for you. You will need to take advantage of opportunities that come your way as soon as you recognize them. If you dwell on them for too long, they may disappear as quickly as they surface.
CAREER:
Those
of you in the market for a promotion or a new source of income should find
August and September as ideal months to make things happen. If help from others
is a requirement in order to make this happen, then waiting until October
may be best. Other times this year may prove a little disappointing, as many
of you may insist on doing things your way, which may not sit well with others
who may be a little less guarded.
HOME
SAGITTARIUS
ROMANCE & RELATIONSHIPS
SINGLES:
Sudden appearances of new people in your life in May 2010 will lead to a good emotional cycle. If you are ready to travel you are likely to find someone who may want to go with you. Exploring each other as well as new environments will help you both to bond. You may find the new lover to be a bit more intense than you might be used to. That does not mean you won’t enjoy the experience, simply that you will need a lot of stamina.
CURRENT ONES:
On the 6th of August you will be affected by Neptune going retrograde in Aquarius. It will mean that you and your partner may have to review decisions made earlier in the year. A decision to buy something may become less appealing, or you may be given another chance to negotiate a better price than you were originally offered. Either way, you both can benefit considerably as a result of delays.
FINANCE & SPECULATION:
Saturn in Libra in 2011 will force you to look at your ambitions and decide whether you should stay on track, or go down a new path. If your heart says yes, but it doesn’t really look good, go for it anyway. Your mind can cause you to become confused if you think about it too much. Do the Zen thing and follow your intuition. Do not allow your fears to get in your way.
CAREER:
This year you will find it easier to become more independent as far as your career is concerned. Freedom is your thing. If you have wanted to work for yourself, for example, this is an ideal time for you to strike out on your own. That can include doing it with a partner, but the thing is to be doing it for yourself. If you still want to work for others, then the least that can happen is you will have some form of autonomy within that job.
CAPRICORN
ROMANCE & RELATIONSHIPS
SINGLES:
Pluto is still in your sign and creating a very intense set of emotional circumstances for you. Many of you may be quite conservative with your new relationships as you attempt to create stability in your love life. Of course that can mean a lot of compromise and less likelihood that you will float from partner to partner at this time. Many long term commitments could come out of this time. This will only work out if you make the effort to get things on track.
CURRENT ONES:
Jupiter and Pluto are in harmony throughout 2011 so long term partnerships should find the going fairly easy so long as you are happy with the status quo. If you want change you will need to point out to each other what it is feel is missing. If you both want the relationship to work then you will find it easy to mend things. You are both likely to spoil each other as a result.
FINANCE & SPECULATION:
Jupiter enters Taurus on the 5th of June, giving your financial issues a positive nudge. If you want to do anything major, such as a house purchase or the like, now is a good time to move forward. Bargains are likely to be easier to find, as home prices cannot be artificially kept high forever. Ask for a discount on everything you can, as you are likely to get it.
CAREER:
Mid-January and the second half of December 2011 will prove to be highly profitable times to ask for a raise or a new source of income. Whilst this will be true for most signs, it helps that Capricorn has Pluto in its own sign. Other times this year will be less advantageous as far as career changes go, so take the bull by the tail and face the situation.
AQUARIUS
ROMANCE & RELATIONSHIPS
SINGLES:
Neptune is still in Aquarius until the 4th of April, so make the most of this auspicious time when it comes to your love life. New partners are likely to be extremely compatible with your Aquarian energy. This is also a time when more people are likely to link up on the Internet, as your sign rules that particular domain. Expect a lot of new social networks becoming available and make the most of them.
CURRENT ONES:
Those partners that have found getting a new project started over the last couple of years as being difficult should see an improvement in 2011. Progress is more likely due to both of you being more attuned to each other. This can be a time where moving interstate, into the country, or overseas could happen quite easily. Remember that such a move is likely to be permanent, so make sure it truly what you both want.
FINANCE AND SPECULATION:
Mercury and Mars in Aquarius in February 2011 will give your money issues a great boost. As your Sun will also be there, it is high time you took a chance and put yourself in a position to improve finances. Lotto or some other game of chance could yield you a goodly sum. The amount will be relative to the chance you take, but don’t go overboard.
CAREER:
As Mars will be in your sign in
January and February, expect to put a lot of energy into your career sector.
The rewards will be quite lucrative as people will tend to notice your additional
input, and therefore want to give you recognition where previously you may
have been ignored. Be aware that your reward may take a little time to be
forthcoming. The longer it takes, however, the larger the reward is likely
to be.

PISCES
ROMANCE & RELATIONSHIPS
SINGLES:
Jupiter is still in Pisces in January 2011, so see if you can squeeze a bit more luck love wise then. After that time you will need to settle down and focus on the new partners you have made contact with. That can mean making commitments later on, as you will want to see whether those around you are truly serious or not. From June you might decide to look at someone from your past if you are not happy with your progress.
CURRENT RELATIONSHIPS:
Virtually all Pisces people will find February onwards as a good time to strengthen commitments already made. This can also be true for business partnerships as well. This period only happens once in a dozen years, so make the most of it. Bonds made at this time can last a lifetime. The more time you spend together, the better the relationship will be.
FINANCE & SPECULATION:
Venus and Pluto will both be in Capricorn in February, so it is a good time to improve your working conditions. One way this could happen is an office move to new premises. Another is through new work colleagues coming on board and thereby making your work life easier. Whichever way it goes, you are highly likely to find a smoother flow of energy money wise at the very least.
CAREER:
As Jupiter is going to be in Taurus for most of this year, expect an easier time around work. There may not be many opportunities to change jobs, but what you will be doing will certainly be more pleasant. Try not to rock the boat this year, as you will waste more time than you should, as next year is best for your career. This year is best to make plans for the future and be patient.
