| Your coming year turns out to be an eventful one with developments from a number of different angles. Your relationships prove especially rewarding as they help you to resolve old wounds with their roots in your distant history. At work and throughout the everyday organisation of your affairs you are encouraged to bring your individuality to bear, to exploit your talents and make a contribution on your own unique terms. A number of new ideas find increasing prominence and more of a correspondingly practical application. Overall, the next twelve months hint at the dawning of a further major phase for you, during which the foundations for your future are painstakingly being drawn up and established. A variety of celestial influences lie behind this critical juncture, but one of the most important involves the planet Saturn. This orbits millions of miles away and travels extremely slowly around the zodiac, at slightly under three decades to complete a full circuit and roughly two and a half years in every sign. On October 5, 2012 it comes back to your constellation and remains until the closing stages of 2014, also enjoying another three month reprise during the third quarter of 2015. If you’re old enough, Saturn’s last visit was way back in 1985, so for some it’ll be your first encounter with such a maturing influence. If you have lived for longer, it represents instead a rare and a noteworthy return. Saturn’s influence is a consolidating focus and in this respect, it helps settle the groundwork on which you’ll be able to build going forwards. |

| In keeping with its ponderous motion these events do not come about quickly, but take a while to coalesce and then maintain a lasting impact thereafter. The two and a bit years leading up to this point, including the majority of the twelve months now under the microscope, are a period during which much that characterised your experience beforehand, is being eliminated to make way for everything ahead. Metaphorically, consider pruning a tree or shrub, where factors that have outlived their usefulness are removed like dead branches, leaving the opportunity for fresh growth in its place. This process can excise a range of things, that could have featured prominently during your preceding Saturn cycle. Perhaps certain relationships no longer seem so pivotal, so even though you may miss them and even mourn their passing, no matter how you struggle they don’t look workable anymore. Maybe it connects with the demise of old interests and with other ones taking their place, or with previous ambitions becoming less of a priority in readiness for revised goals instead. Often this mechanism seems unsettling, because while the old cycle is concluding the next has not begun properly, so nothing else has announced itself on your horizon to take its position yet. But imagine a garden in a temperate region of the world during winter. The ground is bare as the dead growth from last season has been cleared, but no shoots have shown themselves, to reveal the promise of what the next summer brings. Once Saturn enters your sign greener leaves slowly start to present themselves, but it’s a gradual and lengthy process, so patience is still key. Saturn can exhaust you and make everything seem like hard work, but a solid and persistent approach to each obstacle you encounter, leads to solid progress and lasting consequences in the end. Be assured nothing worthwhile will be taken from you, but many matters will be tried, leaving only the most solid standing. |

| Wherever you are faced with a situation that proves troublesome and unrewarding no matter what you do, you’re probably right reviewing your intentions and where appropriate letting this concern go. Of course, it would be surprising if that didn’t leave you slightly downhearted sometimes. It’s important to look after yourself to counteract this, to eat the right things and get enough rest, so you can stay on an even keel emotionally. If you develop any weird and fortunately minor ailments, look at this stress as the causative factor and adjust your lifestyle accordingly. You might try some unusual methods of treating these complaints, a holistic and progressive approach is likely the best for you. Inevitably all this talk of Saturn’s impact doesn’t sound like a great deal of fun, but it is a positive and necessary growth process you will find easiest to deal with, if you are aware of the probable effects in advance. Besides, the enormous improvements in your closest relationships that are concurrently emerging render this entire procedure much easier to handle, as you discover far from unfailingly causing you torment and anguish, others can help you move more confidently into tomorrow accepting that the past is truly behind you. Though some significant associations are undoubtedly on their way out, others will take their place more swiftly than you might imagine. The confusion around your domestic situation clarifies and you begin thinking about the perfect way for you, plus a certain significant other, to spend more time together. |
