This month you could be busy corresponding, connecting, gathering/sharing information and running around more physically.

Until midmonth, there may be more time spent on the phone, paperwork, instructions or information to get your head around too. Some of this mental energy may be used working out communications equipment or be centred around vehicles, transport or travel or schedules.

Try to avoid getting scattered and nervy during this phase and let go of things which stress you. Still your mind and touch base with yourself.

From midmonth, Mercury moves to the root of your Solar chart. The indication is that there will be much information exchange, movement, travel and discussion, right in your own back yard or related to a property matter, family members, or community. It also points to more comings and goings within the locality. Another way it can work is it also means you are connecting with others over the wires from a base of operations which might be home.

However, until the 8th a warm, sociable energy floods into the foundations of your solar chart. This can manifest in various ways. It may mean you are appreciating conditions at home, with family or tribe, or within an environment you prefer. Getting more access to the beauties of nature or decorating a space inside or outside could be on the cards too. Maybe you are playing host or are a visitor to somewhere or someone you really appreciate. You could just be enjoying the surroundings and having more social interaction with or feeling more support coming from those in the locality. It can help you lay to rest an old feud or worry.

From the 8th things to make you smile will not be far away as Venus in a very playful area which hints that daily encounters are more spontaneous. It may also mean your creative juices are flowing and you are in an enterprising, more enthusiastic mood. Venus here is romantic too and some of you could be sharing admiring glances with another. Or it may mean more laughs and friendly sharing along the way and you might just feel more valued. In general more access to experiences or encounters which are empowering is likely and it is your choice to engage or not. But the opportunities will be there for your inner child to have some fun. And some of you will be interacting with children or animals at this time.
Mars is in a public sector and will stay there for several months. This is a time for you to be more of a self-starter or more dynamic regarding your life targets or general direction in life. This will be a period when you get clarity and make pivotal decisions about where you are headed. However, Mars will be retrograde until April which indicates this is a time when you should not expect to win the war only a small skirmish or two at most, but good enough if you are not too stubborn about all or nothing. From April things should start to come together and you may be putting physical effort into achieving certain ambitions. Overall this transit of Mars could urge you to improve your public standing or reputation and become proactive regarding image, presentation, and those you hope to impress favourably, and, if you are decisive and energetic, Mars will help you do well despite its tendency to be controversial. So try to play down clashes with authority figures, parents or others in so-called positions of power as this is more likely now. If you manage to keep your cool and not be too hasty, you will make progress with the master-plan, but also with lesser goals and ambitions too. Some of you may have a more robust interaction with a parent or guardian or may be looked up to as an authority or the person in-charge in certain situations more than usual.

From the 19th the mental pace will slow down and the focus will probably be more upon home, family or a community.


THE SLOWER MOVING PLANETS:

Until next June your ruling planet, Jupiter is opening up new opportunities in the employment sector of your Solar chart, and also offers conditions which may improve health and wellbeing. You'll have more enthusiasm for certain daily routines and probably be developing new skills or interests as you happily provide a service to others. Also you could be seen as the communicator, teacher or guide. Benefits could come through co-workers and others who tend to recognize your abilities or appreciate your contribution more. Work opportunities flow in your direction more easily during this phase but you should avoid taking on too much or grabbing the first thing that comes along as Jupiter tends to bring abundance wherever it goes and you may have a wider array of options to choose from, but the danger is that you spread yourself too thin, or bite off more than you can chew. So you will need to separate the wheat from the chaff and get more organized related to work schedules or health routines so as to fully benefit from Jupiter's good vibes here.

Until late 2012, Saturn continues to make it obvious that certain social groups or friendships have outlived their relevance. Also you may be thinking very differently about how to achieve goals which have been on the back burner for a long time at this stage of your life's journey. But Saturn is likely to keep something you are longing for just out of reach and you have to be more self-disciplined and patient to achieve it. Saturn rules TIME therefore this is the area where you must be most patient and persevering to realize a dream or a goal in a gradual, step by step manner. Saturn, the builder planet, will help something very different and new slowly take shape if you keep at it. You could be applying a talent or a skill in a new kind of a way.

Saturn likes structures, so construct a firm foundation related to new friends, a long-cherished dream or a worthy project which may have a reformist or unconventional feel. The ultimate outcome at the end of the transit will be that you play a different role in the eyes of others, or it's a very different set of others you are hanging out with. Saggies born in the last 3 days or with 27-29 degrees rising will feel the Saturn vibration most.
Uranus moved into Aries on March 11th to stay for 7 years. Foreigners or other unfamiliar groups will expand your consciousness and teach you things which are new

to you some of which may be innovative or unconventional. There could be more fun on offer, more creative, unconventional encounters or the study of a weird subject like astrology. There may be a new friendship or a love relationship with a foreigner or someone from a very different background. Uranus will stimulate your creative, free spirit and you are likely to feel inspired, and willing to take a leap of faith or try a more creatively liberated approach. Or, on another level, you are merging your individual mind with a higher mind.

Saggies born 22nd -26th November and up to 5 degrees Saggie rising will feel this vibration most strongly this month.

Since 1998 Neptune has been making it's influence felt in the communications area. You may have become more intuitive over this time or imaginative. Some of you may have trained in healing, counselling, psychic development or the arts. At times you may have deluded yourself or been deluded by another that a fantasy was the reality. The lives of siblings may have been uncertain or their behaviour unreliable or confusing. Some of you will have developed yourself through meditation, music or mystical subjects.

Neptune will finally slide out of this area and into its home sign Pisces on 4th February. This new position of Neptune which will last til 2025, means a more idealized or serene home environment, but one for which you may have to sacrifice something which is not necessarily a bad thing. The flip side of this is a feeling of confusion or uncertainty or idolizing of family members or wondering where or with whom or where you truly belong or how much you can rely on things staying secure. Another way it can work is that your home may become a retreat or sanctuary for others. It could also be on or near water. Early Saggies born in the first couple of days or with up to 2 degrees rising will feel this vibration the most this month.

Over many years Pluto is evolving you through the material side of life. Are you feeling more sensitive or guarded about other's control where money, property or possessions are concerned? Alternatively, do you feel you'd like to get more powerful in these areas? Eventually, you will discover where the balance lies for you and you will follow that star. There could be a complete reversal of fortune here.

Saggies born from Nov 29th -1st/2nd Dec or with 7-10 degrees Saggie rising will feel this vibration most this month.
