Your Personal Horoscope 2019

Finance and Career

Very important financial things are happening now. You had a foretaste of this last year as Uranus flirted with your money house. Now, on March 7, he is moving in there for the long haul. So, in finance, expect the unexpected. By the time Uranus is finished with you, in seven years’ time, you will be in completely different financial conditions than you are now – radically different. They will also be much better. However, in order for your financial prayers to be answered, things need to be shaken up. Obstructions need to be blasted away. There is a need to learn to handle the insecurities that change brings.

Uranus is the planet of innovation and experimentation. So you are throwing out all the old financial rule books – all the old tried and true methods – and discovering what works for you personally. Experiments sometimes fail but these are temporary setbacks and you learn from them. Often, however, experiments succeed, and when they do earnings will skyrocket beyond belief. Money and earning opportunities can come in unexpected ways, out of the blue, and often when things seem darkest.

Uranus is a planet of extremes. The financial highs will be super-high, but the lows can be super-low too. Make sure you set aside money from the good times to cover the bad periods.

Uranus favours the new, and thus you’re attracted to start-up companies and even start-up industries. He rules the high-tech world – computers, software, the online world. He rules companies that are involved with new inventions and innovations. These are all alluring and you have a good feeling for them. You can even be involved in radically new technologies. In fact, whatever you’re actually doing, your technological expertise is important. By all means invest in technology – get the latest software, apps and computers.

Uranus also rules science and astrology. So astrology can be important in earnings – perhaps through consultations or investment. Your friends seems rich and seem supportive and provide financial opportunity too.

Venus, your financial planet, is a fast-moving planet (not as fast as the Moon or Mercury, but faster than all the others). In a given year she will move through all the signs and houses of your chart. (This year, indeed, she will make one-and-a-third turns around your chart – she moves faster than usual.) Thus earnings and earnings opportunities can come in many different ways, depending on where Venus is and the aspects she is receiving. These short-term trends are best dealt with in the monthly reports. The good news is that Venus will move forward all year – a financial plus, showing forward progress.

The career is unusually active this year. Your 10th house is not only the strongest in the Horoscope, but will be the scene of three eclipses in the year ahead. So there is much change happening there. With Saturn and Pluto in your 10th house all year, you’re working hard and methodically. There is a beautiful, single-minded concentration on your goals, which is 90 per cent of success. This is not the chart of ‘overnight’ success, but of success that happens methodically and through steady, persistent work. It shows success earned through sheer merit and for no other reason. You simply must be the best at what you do. It might seem slow and boring, but the eclipses will come and blast away any obstructions and, suddenly, you’ll be where you want to be.

With Saturn in your career house bosses can be more exacting and demanding, and difficult to please. The cosmic way to handle this is to give them even more than they ask for. Pick up the burdens and go the extra mile. By the end of the year, as Jupiter moves into your career house, you can expect promotions (official or unofficial) and recognition. It shows success.

Love and Social Life

This is not an especially strong love and social year. Some years are like that. Money and career seem far more important this year. The empty 7th house indicates the lack of focus. Usually this tends to the status quo: you’re more or less satisfied with things as they are and have no compelling need to make changes.

There’s nothing in your chart against love and romance, but nothing especially favouring them either. Those who are married will tend to stay married. Singles will tend to stay single.

In your chart Venus does double duty. She is both your financial planet and your love planet. Thus love and money tend to go together with you. When finances are going well, love tends to go well; when love goes well, finances tend to go well. And vice versa. Problems in love will often show problems in finance.

The good news here is that your love planet is moving unusually fast this year. Usually Venus will move through all 12 houses in a year. This year she will move through your 12 houses and then repeat the cycle for four more houses. (In effect she is moving (approximately) a third faster than usual.) This indicates social confidence – it shows someone who covers a lot of social territory. For singles it indicates a kind of fickleness in love. The love needs and desires change constantly. Someone who attracted you one month might not attract you the next.

Thus for singles I see a lot of dating in 2019, but not long-term, serious relationships. Enjoy the love life for what it is. It seems about gaining experiences.

Because Venus is moving so fast there will be a lot of short-term love trends, depending on where she is in the Heavens and the aspects that she receives. These are best dealt with in the monthly reports.

The other important development is that with Uranus moving out of your sign, you are going to be more stable in love. There is less rebellion, less need for change. This will bode well for love later on, in the future. You’re becoming a more ‘settled’ kind of person.

Friendship – a different kind of social activity – seems more active. Friendships are not only good in their own right; they will help the bottom line. Your taste in friends seems more stable than your taste in romantic partners. You like them rich and dependable. Being involved with friends and group activities definitely helps the finances. It will be good also to get involved with professional or trade organizations. They are not only helpful financially but seem to boost the career too (especially after March 7). New and significant friends will come into the picture after December 3, as Jupiter starts to make beautiful aspects to Uranus (your planet of friends).

As was mentioned earlier, parents and parent figures are having their relationships severely tested. There will be improvement at the end of year though, after December 3. There is serious love this year for siblings or sibling figures in your life – marriage would not be a surprise. Children and children figures are very focused on love, and this is 90 per cent of the secret of success. They have love opportunities as they pursue their career path or with people involved in their career. Serious love is likely from December 3 onwards (and next year too). Grandchildren (if you have them) are having a stable kind of love year – but they seem very happy.

Self-improvement

The spiritual life, as we’ve mentioned, is very active and strong these days. Neptune has been in your spiritual 12th house for many years now and will be there for many more. Most of you are now on a spiritual path – and if it hasn’t happened yet (unlikely!) it will happen. Those of you on that path are making very good progress.

Neptune is the planet of transcendence. He gives an ability to ‘rise above’ all earthly conditions and circumstances and see things from a higher, broader perspective. This might not seem like much, but it’s very powerful. It is like looking at things from a satellite orbiting the Earth rather than from a car. We see much more. We see the broad scope of things. We measure and judge things differently. Things that seem ‘bad’ in the short term (usually something unpleasant) are seen as good when the whole, wider picture is understood.

Much of what we have discussed in recent years still applies this year. The transit of a long-term planet such as Neptune is not really an ‘event’ but a process. It is a string of many events, all leading to one thing. So, the dream life is very active – and you should pay attention to it as the dreams will be significant and revelatory. Your ESP (extrasensory perception) faculties are getting stronger and stronger. Your intuition is much more reliable this year than in previous years, as Neptune is receiving better aspects from the other planets. (You will see even greater improvement after December 3.) Without this intuitive element, sacred literature doesn’t yield much insight. This must be read as much by the heart as by the mind. Often the intellect can’t understand certain passages, but intuition reveals the true intent. There will be many supernatural kinds of experiences this year. (Some call these synchronistic experiences – meaningful coincidences.)

One of the spiritual challenges this year comes from the power in your 10th house of career. This will tend to pull you in a worldly direction. There is a need to succeed in the world and in your outer goals. And, often, this will conflict with spiritual values. In the world it’s ‘dog eat dog’: get to the top any way that you can. So this internal struggle will need to be resolved. There are no rules for this. Some people marry the two urges by pursuing a worldly career and doing charity and pro bono work on the side. Some people actually choose a spiritual-type career – either ministry or working for a non-profit organization or a company that caters to these things. Some people pursue their worldly career but work to do it in a spiritual way. Each person finds their own solution.

The other spiritual challenge you face has to do with Uranus’s move into your money house. This, as we’ve said, brings sudden changes to the financial life and the ups and downs can be very extreme. There is a need to handle financial instability in a spiritually correct way. Eventually you will learn this; Uranus is a genius who knows how to do his job.

Meditating on the affluence of God will be a great help. In the midst of all the changes and challenges, the Divine flow of affluence never ceases and never wavers. Concentrating on that – developing faith – will get you through with flying colours. Faith is a muscle that needs building up, just like every other muscle.

A wild and challenging month is ahead, with never a dull moment. Nevertheless, the month seems successful. You’re just working harder. You begin your year in the midst of a yearly career peak. Your 10th house of career is very powerful, with half the planets either in it or moving through. Not only that, a solar eclipse on the 6th (in America it’s on the 5th) also occurs in your 10th house. This is the first of three eclipses that will happen in your career house this year. You can’t be bothered with home and family issues right now. You’ve got to focus on the career – the demands here are powerful.

The solar eclipse brings career changes, which can take many forms. In some cases people actually change their career paths; usually though, the eclipse indicates changes in your company or industry. Sometimes the government changes the laws or the rules and regulations. The rules of the game change. Often this will bring personal dramas in the lives of parents, parent figures, bosses and authority figures. The change is not usually very comfortable while it’s happening, but with hindsight it can be seen as beneficial. A parent or parent figure in your life has to make important financial changes. Every solar eclipse affects the children and children figures in your life and this one is no different. It will be a good idea to reduce your schedule until the 20th, and especially this period. The children should avoid risky kinds of activities over the eclipse period.

We will also have a lunar eclipse on the 21st, which also affects children and children figures as it occurs in your 5th house. So let them take it easy over this period too. Like the previous eclipse, this one affects the finances of a parent or parent figure. He or she needs a course correction as their financial thinking and strategy have not been realistic, as the events of the eclipse will show. Every lunar eclipse impacts on the home and family. So there can be some crisis at home – perhaps a major repair or a personal drama with a family member. The lunar eclipse will reveal flaws in the home that you didn’t know were there, giving you an opportunity to correct them. The dream life will tend to be hyperactive this period, but shouldn’t be given much weight. The emotional plane of the whole planet is roiled up and disturbed (even animals are more edgy), and your dreams are more like ‘psychic waste products’ stirred up by the eclipse. Get them out of your system and go on with your life. Family members need more of your patience. Emotions are running high.

The other headline this month is health. This needs more attention until the 20th. Make sure you get enough rest. Keep your focus on the essentials and don’t fret the trivialities. From the 5th to the 24th, back and knee massages will be very helpful.

Health is much improved this month, but still needs some attention. Enhance the health through calf and ankle massage until the 10th, and with foot massage afterwards. Mars, the ruler of your Horoscope, has been in your sign since January 1 and will still be there until February 14. Aries tend always to be in a rush, but more so now. Haste can lead to arguments and accidents, so be mindful on the physical plane. Be especially mindful from the 11th to the 14th as Mars travels with Uranus. Friends should also be more mindful.

There are interesting and happy financial developments this month. On the 3rd Venus, your financial and love planet, crosses the Mid-heaven. The Mid-heaven is the highest point in the chart and perhaps the most powerful point in the Horoscope. Thus she is exercising more influence. This spells increased earnings. In addition, your ruling planet Mars moves into your money house on the 14th, indicating great personal focus here. You have the financial favour of bosses, elders, parents and parent figures. Pay rises, official or unofficial, can happen. You spend more on yourself. You adopt an image of prosperity – people see you this way. Your good career and professional reputation enhance your earnings. What I also like here is that the financial planet, Venus, is in Capricorn from the 3rd onwards. This shows sound financial judgement and a prudent approach. Your financial decisions should be good, and it’s a very good time to set up budgets, savings and investment plans (and stick to them). This is a time to build up wealth for the long term.

Venus crossing your Mid-heaven is good for the love life too. It shows that love and social opportunity will come as you pursue your career goals (and, in many cases, with people involved in your career). Love is high on your agenda this month. Just as in finance, you’re more prudent in affairs of the heart. You favour successful and powerful people, people who can help you careerwise – and you’re meeting these kinds of people too. Singles could be tempted by relationships of convenience these days. Love seems very practical. There is a romantic or social opportunity with a boss or authority figure in your life on the 17th or 18th.

Stern Saturn has been in your 10th house of career since last year. So, your career advances through sheer merit. However, this month it won’t hurt to increase the ‘likeability’ factor. It’s not a substitute for merit, but it does help it along.

On the 19th the Sun enters your spiritual 12th house and stays there for the rest of the month – a good time to focus more on your spiritual practice. This is a period where spiritual breakthroughs are more likely. Your personal creativity is also very inspired these days.

March

A happy month ahead, Aries. Enjoy! This is a month for making progress on whatever spiritual path you’re on. Spiritual growth and a sound intuition are not only good in their own right, but will pay off creatively in your ability to handle your children, your ability to enjoy life and, after the 26th, in a financial and social way too.

Spiritual breakthroughs and revelations can happen all month, but especially on the 15th and 16th, and from the 24th onwards. Those of you working in the creative arts are especially inspired on the 15th and 16th. Mercury, your health planet, makes a station – he ‘camps out’ – right on your spiritual planet, Neptune, from the 24th to the 31st. This is a wonderful aspect for spiritual healing. If you feel under the weather during this time, you should consider seeing some sort of spiritual healer.

Health is good this month (but keep in mind that two long-term planets are still in stressful alignment with you). And compared to January, it is excellent! Like last month, enhance the health through foot massage and through spiritual techniques such as meditation, prayer, reiki, the laying on of hands and the manipulation of subtle energies. Your health planet is travelling backward from the 5th to the 25th, so avoid making important changes to the health regime then. Any such changes will need more study and research.

Students below college level need more focus. They are too apt to get dreamy and go off into ‘other worlds’.

The planetary power is approaching its maximum Eastern position for the year. As our regular readers know, this means that the planetary power is flowing towards you rather than away from you. You are in a period of maximum independence (and this becomes even stronger after the 20th), so it is time to take responsibility for your own happiness and conditions of life. If those conditions are irksome, make any changes that need to be made (before the 5th and after the 25th are the best times for this). There’s no need to please the world at the moment. If you are happy there is that much less suffering in the world. Self-interest is not evil, and self-sacrifice is not necessarily saintly. It all depends on the cycle you’re in.

Your love planet, Venus, spends most of the month in Aquarius and your 11th house. Thus this is more of a ‘friendship’ period than a romantic one. Many of you are more captivated by the ‘idea’ of love than actual love itself. (And in many cases you attract those kinds of people.) This position favours groups, organizations and the online social media world. And romantic opportunities can happen in these venues. The financial life is also helped by these activities. You need more of an online presence in whatever you’re doing.

On the 26th Venus will enter Pisces, your 12th house. This is Venus’s strongest position (on the celestial level), so the social and financial magnetism are greatly enhanced. Intuition will guide you in both love and finances.
