Sequins of Hope

Just made it to Susan Miller's book signing at the Barnes and Noble in Union Square last night. The room was packed with a rapt audience of NYCers looking for someone to tell them, "Everything will be alright."

Miller is so excited about 2005's dance between Jupiter and Neptune that she showed up ready for clubbing in a silver sequined tank and fitted jeans. Per last year's reading, she covered each sign's main points. Aries, of course, were the most rambunctious of the crowd, but Libras are the Celestial Favorite of the year. Check out my notes for your sign. (Rachel also gave me the Year Ahead for all signs, if you want to borrow)

Capricorn: If in a relationship, you've been dealing with a partner who's going through some rough transitions like losing a job. Or you've had to knock out some competition in business. Your career, which is usually your #1 priority, will be fantastic all year. If there's any personal issues or otherwise that you are unsure of, make sure they are cleared before the eclipse on April 10. The second half of the year will be great for romance.

Aquarius: The hard work continues until the summer, but meanwhile plan a well-deserved long distance getaway. No excuses. Also, if you are looking for a scholarship or grant to further your education, the aspects for that are good, too. Toward the end of the year, all eyes will be on your career so be prepared for an inspection. There are possibilities of a marriage leading into 2006, and after the new moon on June 6 romantic opportunities will open up.

Pisces: Love has been tough lately, as you've been having troubles meshing schedules with your loved one. Creative projects are also taking longer than expected, but you are entering the best career period in a long while. During the second half of the year, creative projects will take you on short trips. Money will come in based on performance. There will also be sibling disagreements to contend with.

Aries: You have been dealing with apartment issues concerning roommate or space problems. In July, you'll also be dealing with a sick family member who you'll want to help. Jupiter is coming into your house of marriage, and outside circumstances may push you to the altar. Plan on spending lots of money this year.

Taurus: From the end of July to the following March, Mars will be in your sign and you will in control. Things will start going your way. Starting motivating yourself to get fit and healthy and by the end of the year you will be focused on maintaining it. The second half of the year shows that you may trade property, either houses or land.

Gemini: Money has been a big headache lately; you never seem to have enough. If it comes in, you will have to earn it. After the summer, things will look up. Until then, get back to basix and pare your expenses down. Look at what you really value and focus on that. Love and Creativity are big for you this year, possibly leading to a baby. You will be working in seclusion the second half of the year.

Cancer: Although you've been having money problems, Jupiter is in your house of home and family support. If you're looking to buy real estate, your family will help out with a down payment. With Saturn still in your sign, you'll still be learning to deal with responsibility and practicality. Fun, friends, and social activities will return in the second half once Saturn leaves towards the second half of the year. Remember that tiny changes will have a big impact overall.

Leo: Money problems were the focus of 2004, and although you thought you could ditch your job make sure you have a backup plan first. Do some work on the side. Praise and opportunity for advancement come from having Mars in your career house.

Virgo: This is your year to make $$$. This is the biggest money cycle in 12 years, with the eclipses in April and October bringing the most advancement. There may be some drama with your business partner. You may also be sent off to study or travel in the second half of the year. With 2006, possibly bringing a promotion.

Libra: As the Celestial Favorite, all the influential peeps want to help if you already know what you want. Ask questions if you need help, don't be afraid about not knowing all the answers. As Jupiter is in your first house, everything is getting bigger so be careful about gaining weight as you're out and about. With four planets in your house of home, you may feel pulled in different directions where there's not enough of you to go around. This will all be over after January leading into a great romantic February. If you need financial backing or funding, look for it in the second half of the year. Go out and wheel and deal.

Scorpio: If you were born around the end of October 27, you really felt the effects of last October's eclipse in your sign. All these changes are pushing you through a transformation where you'll come out a new person. Look out for further drama around April 24's eclipse. Get all the self-evaluation out of the way, in the first half of the year as the second half will be easier. You have been thinking about your next step and offloading responsibilities. In October, you will be crowned Celestial Favorite. The March 10 new moon will also bring some opportunities.

Sagittarius: Debt or loans have been weighing on you lately, and you‘ve been considering taking care of it so that load will be lifted from you by July. There are also issues with your tax returns this year. Friendship is highlighted this year, so join clubs and associations. These friends will come in handy when you need help finding an apartment or any other situations where it’s better to rely on friends rather than professionals. The second part of the year brings a busy work period where you will be in demand and be very productive. The April eclipse means romance for you. Look forward to 2007 being the BIG year for you.
