Transit NEPTUNE square natal Uranus
Jan 1 through Jan 5
This is more of a generational influence than anything else. It represents a period when confusion, disorientation, or unrealistic expectations arise to cause certain changes in the structure of society. Idealism and spirituality bump up against the more practical technical and economic considerations and almost anything can happen. Eventually, of course, this can mean significant changes in how things get done-- and how things get done may have some impact on those of your particular generation. But as an individual, you may not feel much personal dislocation.

Transit MARS trine natal Uranus
Jan 5 through Jan 8, Exact on Jan 7
Actions you take during this period can have some unusual or unexpected results. It is difficult to predict what will happen but the potential is for the outcome to be very beneficial. Under this influence you may be inspired to do something unique or quite out of character-- though again, such actions are apt to have fortunate consequences. Unless other circumstances discourage the otherwise fortunate potential, it is a good time to introduce changes in work schedule, implement new methods and procedures, and to deal with technical equipment, computers, and inventions. Travel by air, activities with friends, and organizing group efforts are other favored activities.

Transit MARS conjoined natal Sun
Jan 7 through Jan 10, Exact on Jan 8
During this period you experience a surge of vitality--a stronger identification with so-called male energy. Your inner determination becomes stronger, and ego gratification is the guiding force behind many of your physical actions. You energetically go after things or people in a number of ways depending on the circumstances. Under this influence, your actions may result in an act of great courage, aggressive push to get ahead, enthusiastic endorsement, or demonstration in one form or another of your integrity and principles. You either encounter physical challenges or purposely initiate direct confrontations and competitive or risky situations. You may be well able and willing to physically handle whatever comes along during this period (or at least believe that you can) but take care that your actions and activities do not strain your heart or spine or result in sunburn or injuries to your head or face.

Transit PLUTO conjoined natal Neptune
Jan 1 through Feb 17, Exact on Jan 8
Current circumstances will tend to bring political, economic, and even physical power struggles that may deeply affect your personal ideals and spirituality. The impact of this influence is likely to target your attitudes about civil rights, conservation, religion, and right to life in issues such as abortion, genetic engineering, and mercy killing.

Transit SATURN square natal Mercury
Jan 1 through Feb 12
By choice or current circumstances you may be very preoccupied with computers, communications, writing assignments, mechanical and design projects, education, and training. Whatever efforts you may be engaged in along these lines, they are likely to be plagued by delay or frustrations of one sort or another. Correspondence does not arrive on time. The material or assignments you are given may be new or more difficult than usual, or other circumstances make it hard for you to give sufficient time and attention to the tasks at hand. Travel is apt to be delayed, but this by no means implies that you should cancel the trip. Simply work your schedule around the changes or inconveniences that turn up. A similar description and pattern of frustration may accompany business or commercial enterprises, community activities, meetings or seminars, and projects or contacts that involve siblings and neighbors. Your normal pace may be slowed by respiratory ailments, hearing or speech difficulties, arthritis, and other complaints that you may experience yourself or have to cope with in others. The positive potential is that in every likelihood you will accomplish what you set out to do. All you need is patience and the determination to overcome whatever challenges turn up.

Transit MARS trine natal Saturn
Jan 18 through Jan 21, Exact on Jan 19
You are apt to have more patience during this period. If you require more time to accomplish a certain task, it will be granted. Maturity and experience behind your actions is one of the keys to the successful results they bring. If you fail to apply such wisdom in a given situation, you may nevertheless benefit from the actions of those who do. This is one of the most favorable of influences-- not only for the potential success of your efforts but because they are likely to be meaningful, long-lasting accomplishments. It is an auspicious time to initiate projects that are geared toward bringing benefits at a later time in your life.

Transit MARS square natal Neptune
Jan 17 through Jan 20, Exact on Jan 19
Your actions during this period may very well be inspired, but they are not apt to be organized, well-planned or carefully executed. The shortest distance between two points is not likely to be the expected straight line. The present atmosphere is not conducive to logical actions, though you may find plenty of rationalizations for the actions you do take. You will have to make a determined effort if you wish to avoid wasting time and energy. Methods used to accomplish something must depend on intuition and instinct, since there may be little else to go on. Under this influence there is a certain amount of danger due to inattention, or because you may simply be unaware of potentially perilous situations. Laziness is another potential obstacle you may have to overcome.

Transit MARS trine natal Moon
Jan 26 through Jan 28, Exact on Jan 27
Your personal environment is likely to be pretty smooth during this period. Schedules are not interrupted, machinery hums along as it should, everyone does what they are supposed to, and tasks are accomplished on time and with little effort. Creativity and imagination are enhanced. Your actions are more apt to be guided by instinct and intuition. Efforts related to home, family and nutrition are not only successful but emotionally satisfying. This is an excellent time for planting seeds. Activities involving or related to women and babies are highly favored. Under this influence you do not feel the need to compete with anyone, not even yourself. If something comes along that you enjoy you will have plenty of enthusiasm and energy to pursue it.

Transit MARS sextile natal Mars
Feb 2 through Feb 5, Exact on Feb 3
People and situations you encounter or that you attract at this time are likely to help you accomplish physical tasks. Opportunity that others give you is apt to also directly or indirectly help them accomplish their own physical goals. This is a period when the attitude of "you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours" is the most successful approach to getting things done-- and it keeps everyone busy. Under this influence the more physical energy you use, the more you will generate. Accomplishing one task will lead to another.

Transit MARS conjoined natal Jupiter
Feb 3 through Feb 5, Exact on Feb 4
You are likely to have an expansive, perhaps unnecessarily exaggerated, part to play in some of the situations you encounter during this period. You may be tempted to give people more credit than they deserve. The actions of others can inspire and expand the development of your own potential or that of your present circumstances. Unless there are negative factors to discourage the otherwise beneficial potential of this influence, it is a period when you can improve your intellectual, monetary, and social status. You may have greater enthusiasm for increasing your spiritual and cultural awareness, and for engaging in sports or physical fitness. Your appetite for obtaining the finer things in life is as enhanced as your capacity for enjoying them.

Transit MARS conjoined natal Venus
Feb 9 through Feb 12, Exact on Feb 11
New partnership, alliances, and joint ventures may be established, and those in which you are currently involved may experience renewed energy and enthusiasm. Unless negative situations are around to provoke unpleasant attitudes, your willingness to cooperate is enhanced, and in return, you are just as likely to receive generous assistance with your own projects. Interactions with others at all levels are more invigorating. Physical efforts are also especially enthusiastic if you are involved in art, music, design, or the beauty business. If you have been thinking of undergoing cosmetic surgery, enhancing your wardrobe, or redecorating your home, you are apt to put such plans into action at this time. Romantic adventures, legal matters, and social events are other prime targets of energetic endeavors. There is nothing in any of these potential situations to suggest whether the efforts put forth are positive or negative, or whether they will have positive or negative consequences. Other prevailing circumstances will have to determine the outcome.

Transit MARS opposed natal Pluto
Feb 22 through Feb 24, Exact on Feb 23
Opposing forces you encounter during this period have a paralyzing effect. A contest of wills is to be avoided at all costs. Efforts to gain control of any kind are apt to produce the opposite effect. This is not a time to change or interfere with the status quo of things. Deliberately engaging the hostility of another is to arouse a formidable opponent you might not otherwise have had to confront. Manipulations are a waste of time which doesn't leave much except the direct approach, a method with the same potential result. If you realize that the current circumstances are likely to present no means at all to gain the upper hand or maneuver situations to your advantage, you are correct. Act accordingly.

Transit MARS sextile natal Mercury
Feb 24 through Feb 26, Exact on Feb 25
Current circumstances imply opportunity to physically touch base with others-- to exchange ideas and information. Contacts and activities with neighbors and/or siblings are apt to be especially stimulating, physically as well as mentally. Advantageous circumstances may present you with a chance to initiate projects related to writing, direct-mail promotions, or publishing. You may run across a bargain that leads to the purchase or sale of a car or other vehicle. A chance to travel may also come your way. Valuable information or ideas may be waiting for you if you take an opportunity to catch up on correspondence and reading. Take advantage of any situation that allows you to use or develop mechanical, computer, or artistic skills. Meetings and discussion groups can provide a forum for you to inspire others to take affirmative action, or, perhaps your participation in such get-togethers will stimulate you to take such action.

Transit MARS trine natal Neptune
Feb 26 through Feb 28, Exact on Feb 27
This is a period to use your intuitive abilities, increase your spiritual awareness, investigate dreams and the occult, and carry out as much of your work and other physical activities as possible behind the scenes. Exactly how or by what means some task or achievement is accomplished may not be apparent, nor does it have to be. The successful result such actions are likely to produce will be clear enough to make everybody happy. Some of the most successful work and other physical activities during this period involve in one aspect or another such areas as arts and entertainment (especially dance), photography, charitable institutions, drugs, alcohol, oil, gas, marine life, water sports, and ocean cruises.

Transit MARS square natal Saturn
Feb 26 through Feb 29, Exact on Feb 28
The difficulties and delays you encounter during this period are likely to be caused by lack of preparation, planning, and organization--either on your part or that of others. The maddening thing is that even if you are the most careful individual, you are apt to be caught just when things are in disarray, or, just when you need something, it cannot be located in time. Bad timing is, in fact, one of the biggest obstacles to progress. Under this influence others may physically resist or even threaten your seniority or position of authority-- nor are you likely to take it graciously when they do. The best part of the present circumstances is the potential that you will eventually succeed, even if it is because maturity and experience dictates that you keep on going until everything goes as it should.

Transit JUPITER opposed natal Uranus
Feb 22 through Mar 4, Exact on Feb 28
This is an unfavorable period for group activities. Everyone goes off in opposite directions in spite of the most rigorous efforts to coordinate everything. This is a time when circumstances make it difficult for you to be part of a group or function in the role you play in the lives of others; as spouse, relative, lover, friend, or associate. Greater need for freedom and independence may be the problem in these relationships, or opposing views or goals may create the difficulties. It is important to realize that you will probably not be able to remove the forces that oppose you, which only leaves you the option of finding a constructive way to work around them or with them. This is not a successful period for business matters, especially with regard to organizational finances and fund-raising efforts.

Transit SATURN sextile natal Saturn
Feb 14 through Mar 11, Exact on Feb 28
Current circumstances may bring people and situations that can help you decide what is working and what is not as far as methods, activities, and attaining long-range goals are concerned. They may bring you into contact with those who share similar goals, are moving along similar paths, use similar methods, and who will enlighten you as to what they have learned. The information and experiences they share may allow you to move ahead with even more purpose, and on more solid ground.

Transit JUPITER sextile natal Sun
Feb 29 through Mar 10, Exact on Mar 5
During this period the people and situations you encounter are likely to offer opportunity to expand the range of your personal influence, to explore new ways or reasons to exert your will on the way things are going, and give you a chance to be proud of yourself. The nature of this period is such that you do not or should not wait for such an opportunity to be handed to you, though that is also a potential. If the chance you need does not come along find the best means and time available to create one. The implication of this influence is that your efforts will eventually lead to success. Do not hesitate to impose your own priorities and defend your integrity and principles.

Transit MARS square natal Moon
Mar 5 through Mar 8, Exact on Mar 7
Things are not as apt to run smoothly during this period. Equipment falters or breaks down, causing frustration and delay. Encountering traffic jams is a strong possibility, especially if you are homeward bound and/or children or household errands are the reason for being out in the first place. Accidents or temper tantrums waste more time. Under this influence you may suffer from digestive complaints-- the likely consequences of anger, frustration, or eating too fast. Care should be taken not to arouse antagonism in male relationships. Check your home for possible fire hazards. Disagreement between family members, whether or not the arguments involve you, can be enough to send you somewhere else until things quiet down. When cooking or baking be sure to check the time and temperature you use, or your food may be overdone, or even burned. Even with all the potential for trouble and frustration, it is nevertheless possible to accomplish quite a bit. Things may get done because of rather than in spite of the obstacles that must be overcome.

Transit MARS square natal Mars
Mar 13 through Mar 15, Exact on Mar 14
The raw energy in your present environment is stimulating, but the tension it also implies can bring anger and frustration that slow down efforts to get things done. Everyone may be too busy to pay enough attention to helping anyone else. It is not the time for indecisive actions or you run the risk that others will attain the success you had hoped to achieve. This period is one of a decidedly masculine influence. The methods needed are apt to require physical strength, and the energy with which they are performed must be rough and aggressive-- making up in forcefulness and determination for what may be lacking in caution or refinement.

Transit MARS opposed natal Uranus
Mar 24 through Mar 27, Exact on Mar 26
The physical energy surrounding you during this period indicates it would be a waste of time to try and coordinate group efforts. Though activities with friends and organizations are likely to be disrupted, other aspects of your personal life may not be so disturbed. The unstable influence of current circumstances makes it difficult to predict what actions you may unexpectedly take, or what actions may suddenly be taken against you. It is not a favorable period to act on the spur-of-the-moment, or to participate in new or unusual experiences. The potential is high that the results of such activities will be unsuccessful, perhaps even disastrous. Under this influence being in the middle of a crowd is unsettling, and the same may be said for single encounters with strangers. Make no attempt to act out or impose egalitarian gestures to counteract prejudice. It is apt to raise more than resentment in those with a deep bias who will not hesitate to attack you as well as your lofty principles.

Transit MARS sextile natal Sun
Mar 26 through Mar 29, Exact on Mar 27
Use opportunities presented by current circumstances to take physical actions; advantageous actions that can eventually lead to furthering your career or to gaining recognition of your individuality and talent. Do not pass up a chance to demonstrate courage, integrity, and loyalty, or to vigorously defend your principles. The ultimate ego satisfaction you get or goals you attain during this period may come through men or a male individual, or from being in situations that may be described as competitive or aggressive. Success is also most likely to result from being a doer, which means you cannot sit around waiting for things to happen. You need to put yourself physically in different situations, participate in a variety of activities, and circulate among a wide variety of people in order to attract the kind of opportunity you're looking for.

Transit JUPITER square natal Mercury
Apr 1 through Apr 9, Exact on Apr 5
Progress during this period may be delayed by frustrating obstacles caused by a variety of annoyances; too much of one thing and not enough of another, wrong information, paying too much or too little attention to details, having so much time that nothing gets finished or having too little time to adequately accomplish something. Tardiness or mechanical failure can be the cause of frustration in travel. The truth is that, in spite of whatever snags develop, much can actually be accomplished, especially if you avoid jumping to conclusions, acting with too much haste, or believing you already know the answers. Patience and a prudent manner in dealing with information and communications will be rewarded with more progress in many situations than you thought could be accomplished when you first started out.

Transit MARS square natal Mercury
Apr 4 through Apr 7, Exact on Apr 6
Too much haste or aggressiveness causes tempers to flare. Expect to encounter argumentative males, aggressive drivers, and frustration when trying to put ideas into action or implement new work methods. Check your work place for faulty wiring and possible fire hazards. Wrong directions, bad weather, and other physical obstacles can slow you down when traveling or interfere with the flow of information and other communications. During this period caution is advised to prevent possible burns or cuts, especially to your fingers and hands. In spite of all these potential problems, there is abundant and stimulating energy available. Even if initially aroused by anger or frustration, this energy can, with just a little effort, be rechanneled into positive accomplishments.

Transit MARS sextile natal Saturn
Apr 7 through Apr 10, Exact on Apr 8
If you are a well-prepared, organized individual with definite goals, you are in the best position to take advantage of opportunities that come along during this period. Nor should you hesitate to go out and deliberately create opportunities to demonstrate your experience and maturity. If you are not such a highly structured, goal-oriented individual, the people and situations you encounter under this influence can offer you the inspiration you need to become better organized, and help you to lay a more solid foundation for the type of success you wish to achieve. This period represents a chance to take advantage of any seniority or position of authority you have in order to get something done.

Transit JUPITER sextile natal Saturn
Apr 10 through Apr 18, Exact on Apr 14
During this period the people and situations you encounter are likely to offer opportunity to make use of experience you have acquired as well as whatever hard work, organization, and planning your past efforts have achieved. If, however, you lack maturity, the willingness to work hard, or experience that will afford you an opportunity to take advantage of current circumstances, it is wise to assume that what you are being given now is a chance to attain these very things.

Transit MARS sextile natal Moon
Apr 15 through Apr 18, Exact on Apr 17
You may get the opportunity to turn feelings into physical actions or to physically express your emotions. If you are involved in creative or artistic activities your efforts now may ultimately lead to successful exhibitions of your work, to greater emotional satisfaction from physically expressing your talent, or a chance to successfully represent the talents of others. If your interest and instincts are aroused-- follow their lead. Current circumstances may bring a chance to promote family relationships and activities or to accomplish domestic tasks. Your children or other family members may be given an opportunity to work or to compete in sports events or other competition. Do not pass up the chance to invite male companions, family members, and business associates to dine. Avoid future problems with appliances and machinery by taking time now to repair them or provide the routine maintenance they require.

Transit SATURN sextile natal Moon
Apr 14 through Apr 30, Exact on Apr 22
The people and circumstances likely to be encountered these days provide opportunity to boost your emotional life-- opportunity that can lead to fulfilling a desire, becoming healthier or more physically fit, and establishing better relationships with family members, especially elderly family members. Under this influence benefits are ultimately gained from heeding the wisdom of those who are older and wiser than yourself. Patience is definitely a virtue that pays off. If patience is not normally a part of your personality, it would be in your best interests to temporarily adopt this approach. Another opportunity in your current circumstances may arise as a direct result of your careful work and patience in the past.

Transit MARS trine natal Mars
Apr 23 through Apr 26, Exact on Apr 24
You are surrounded by an abundance of free and easygoing energy during this period. If you need help getting things done, it will appear. People you encounter are apt to be applying their physical efforts toward the same or very similar goals. Obstacles in your path are few or nonexistent. Under this influence you can make one effort fit neatly into the next one-- resulting in a series of accomplishments. It is also a time when your physical actions--whatever their purpose-- may have the fortunate consequence of putting you in the right place at the right time.

Transit MARS sextile natal Jupiter
Apr 24 through Apr 27, Exact on Apr 25
Present circumstances may bring opportunity to demonstrate your knowledge or expertise. Creating your own opportunity to show off is also likely to lead to success. This period favors taking advantage of people and situations in ways that will eventually lead to advancement in your professional status, broader intellectual horizons, attainment of cultural pursuits, greater spiritual awareness, success in sports, realization of political ambitions, or international travel. Under this influence your physical efforts may give you a chance to enjoy the good life, move up the social ladder, publish a book or other material, exhibit your sense of humor, or participate in theatrical productions.

Transit MARS sextile natal Venus
May 1 through May 4, Exact on May 2
Opportunities that may lead to romance, social activities, partnership, and joint ventures are potentials implied by this period. There is no guarantee that such potentials will automatically come your way. Success is more likely to be the result of deliberately putting yourself in situations that generate such opportunities. This favorable influence encourages you to help others attain their goals, and in return, you will be able to ask for their assistance in your own efforts. Legal matters, contract negotiations, enhancement of your physical appearance, and artistic projects may eventually be successful as a result of opportunities offered by present circumstances.

Transit MARS square natal Sun
May 7 through May 10, Exact on May 8
You may be touchier than usual when others impinge on your territory, challenge your authority, and question your methods. Whether you stick to your way of doing things or decide to follow the suggestions of others, your desire for personal accomplishment is apt to be very strong during this period. You seek ego-gratification from the final result of your efforts, not from the methods you used to accomplish it. Tension may rise when dealing with male companions or co-workers. Under this influence, the success of your efforts is likely to be delayed as a consequence of actions that are unnecessarily aggressive or too hasty. Having found a way to restrain these tendencies, and applying determination and patience, you will accomplish far more than you anticipated. During this period take precautions in all your physical efforts in order to avoid injury to your head or face, or putting too much strain on your heart and spine.

Transit JUPITER sextile natal Moon
May 4 through May 13, Exact on May 9
Chance and circumstances these days may afford you the opportunity to express your emotions, to get what you want, to follow your heart. Your emotional life is given a chance to grow and expand in one form or another. This does not imply a time when you may actually succeed, only that you will find the opportunity that will lead to success. What are your desires, your requirements for emotional satisfaction? Money? Love? Power? Knowledge? The success of this period may come in the form of an opportunity to realize what you do not want, in itself a highly liberating situation.

Transit MARS trine natal Pluto
May 14 through May 17, Exact on May 16
Research and investigation flourish during this period. You can really get to the bottom of things with the help of the intense, focused energy that surrounds you. Psychological analysis, assessment of property, and financial investments are infused with a physical focus that gives keener perception to the intellectual efforts involved in these matters. Under this influence you have all the control you need if you do not take it for granted, and you recognize how to apply its subtle but deadly accurate force. Your recuperative powers, should you need them, are at a high level.

Transit MARS trine natal Mercury
May 16 through May 19, Exact on May 18
A surge of physical energy and enthusiasm may prompt you to turn thoughts or ideas into actions--the results of which can be very successful. Sales, installation and repair of machinery or equipment are highly favored. Sales of any kind are likely to be more energetic and successful. This also applies to travel, activities and meetings, and the physical dissemination of information. Work that is done or business that is owned or operated by you and/or your siblings is likely to flourish at this time, especially if the job or business is in your neighborhood. Under this influence good fortune or good news comes through the mail or by telephone. This is an auspicious period for writing, designing, buying a car or other motorized vehicles, or developing your mechanical or computer skills.

Transit MARS opposed natal Neptune
May 19 through May 22, Exact on May 20
Efforts are apt to come to nothing, or at least not accomplish the purpose for which they were intended. This unfortunate potential should not become an excuse to remain totally idle, since many efforts that are carried out on a daily or routine basis are not necessarily threatened during this period. However, the prospect of erosion chipping away at the available physical energy and enthusiasm would suggest that it is not wise to invest your time and efforts in new activities or vague, disorganized projects. Under this influence charitable acts can be misguided. Work methods are inept, inefficient, or incorrect. Water sports pose the risk of danger, as do fishing trips, ocean cruises, and work that involves photography, gas, oil, and explosive or corrosive chemicals. It is not a favorable time for you to try new medication, take an anesthetic, alcohol, and drugs. Illusion and deception are constant threats. This influence has a strong potential for surprise attack. Be alert but not paranoid.

Transit PLUTO conjoined natal Neptune
Apr 12 through Jul 5, Exact on May 27
Current circumstances will tend to bring political, economic, and even physical power struggles that may deeply affect your personal ideals and spirituality. The impact of this influence is likely to target your attitudes about civil rights, conservation, religion, and right to life in issues such as abortion, genetic engineering, and mercy killing.

Transit JUPITER trine natal Mars
May 28 through Jun 6, Exact on Jun 1
During this period many things you try may seem to succeed with little or no effort, and even difficult things are easier to accomplish. In other times and different societies, hunters and warriors who began their enterprises under this influence would be expected to succeed. You may apply this to your current physical efforts. In spite of its fortunate potential however, this influence is also known to promote physical laziness and a state of contentment that discourages strong inclinations to rise to competitive situations and other challenges that come along. Knowing this, it would be in your best interests not to let inertia interfere with your physical industriousness. For whatever purpose your actions are aimed, there will be an element of luck associated with them. Even apparent failures have a way of being fortuitous in some advantageous way. After all, it is better to miss the bus than to be struck by it. Good fortune may come to you through a man, and male relationships in general are favored at this time.

Transit JUPITER sextile natal Jupiter
May 31 through Jun 8, Exact on Jun 4
This influence is not thought to be of particular strength or significance. Perhaps the most that might be said is that though they may not prove instrumental in helping you succeed, the people and situations you encounter at this time will at least not provide obstacles to your own efforts to attain some goal. Considering the frustration and discouragement that can result from coping with opposing forces and other snags, perhaps the absence of such obstacles can in itself be all the benefit you need.

Transit SATURN trine natal Mars
May 28 through Jun 13, Exact on Jun 5
Physical actions are favored with success during this period. Efforts apt to be most successful are of two kinds; those that represent the past, a culmination of hard work and experience, and those that occur now and are undertaken in a careful, methodical way with an eye toward eventual success. Male relationships are solid and well favored these days. Removal of cataracts or dental work, including oral surgery is successful if undertaken at this time. This is a period of smooth functioning for mechanical and physical systems. Tradition and authority are given proper attention and respect, and as a result, substantial benefits of one kind or another are gained.

Transit MARS square natal Jupiter
Jun 6 through Jun 9, Exact on Jun 8
A certain amount of restlessness and lack of attention to detail in your actions during this period may be the consequence of responding too much to "the big picture". Increased tendency to overreach may result in your having to pay the consequences for exaggeration and extravagant gestures. Do not be tempted to accept more work than you are physically capable of handling, or assignments for which you lack the proper skills or experience. Do not take risks if you cannot afford to suffer the consequences of the potential loss. The point to remember (and possibly avoid while under this influence) is that your tendency toward expansive gestures, to whatever that trait exists in your nature and personality, will be enhanced. If your gestures are prudent you will overcome whatever physical obstacles block your path. Whether or not you succeed, at least you will not walk away empty handed.

Transit SATURN sextile natal Jupiter
Jun 2 through Jun 18, Exact on Jun 10
This is a period when current circumstances offer opportunities that lead to your personal growth. It may be a chance to increase your spirituality, expand your intellectual horizons, and gain new experiences through travel and dealing with those of another race or culture. Under this influence the people and situations you encounter may ultimately improve your economic or professional status, or lead to the expansion and success of cultural and political pursuits.

Transit MARS square natal Venus
Jun 13 through Jun 16, Exact on Jun 15
Social activities, partnership, cooperative efforts, romantic adventures, diplomatic maneuvers, and legal negotiations can be successful under this influence, but the potential is that these endeavors will not proceed altogether smoothly. Jealousy, envy, and insensitivity are factors that must be avoided or eliminated when they appear. Another way to minimize the negative potential of this period is to tone down aggressiveness and promote an impression of harmony and cooperation. If life were to imitate art under this influence, the message would be not to choose colors that blend, instead choose colors that go well because of the contrast they make with each other. There is much that can be stimulating and exciting in the course of your physical efforts and interactions with others during this period.

Transit MARS trine natal Uranus
Jun 18 through Jun 21, Exact on Jun 20
Actions you take during this period can have some unusual or unexpected results. It is difficult to predict what will happen but the potential is for the outcome to be very beneficial. Under this influence you may be inspired to do something unique or quite out of character-- though again, such actions are apt to have fortunate consequences. Unless other circumstances discourage the otherwise fortunate potential, it is a good time to introduce changes in work schedule, implement new methods and procedures, and to deal with technical equipment, computers, and inventions. Travel by air, activities with friends, and organizing group efforts are other favored activities.

Transit MARS trine natal Sun
Jun 20 through Jun 23, Exact on Jun 21
This can be an ego-boosting period in which you feel more confident that your efforts will be successful. In turn, this is the kind of attitude that attracts the people and success you are looking for. Self-promotion works very well, as does using the efforts of others to your own advantage. Other potentials imply that your physical efforts--whatever they may be-- may bring you recognition or a position of leadership, and that you may be more generous in helping others. Though this influence increases vitality, it can also promote a certain amount of laziness. If you are by nature a less-than-energetic individual, this period is not likely to galvanize you into action. It may be your good fortune however, to get others to do the work for you. Some of the most highly favored activities include those that involve men or products and services related to men, military maneuvers, sports, surgical procedures, manufacturing, and firearms. Just plain good luck can save you from accidents and other mishaps. The only word of warning is not to take things too much for granted, or become too sure of yourself.

Transit JUPITER sextile natal Venus
Jun 22 through Jul 1, Exact on Jun 26
During this period the people and situations you encounter are likely to offer opportunity to expand your social activities, establish a partnership or other alliances, put some romance into your life, obtain beautiful and luxurious possessions, and enhance your own attractiveness in some way. To find such an opportunity (or to create one for yourself) depends in this case, on your willingness to increase interactions with others. Under this influence a current partner or ally may provide a chance to improve your social status or become more successful. This is also a period that can lead to success in negotiating better terms for yourself or for others in legal affairs, diplomatic endeavors, contracts and other agreements.

Transit MARS square natal Pluto
Jun 28 through Jul 1, Exact on Jun 29
Power struggles, jealousy, and revenge may be the guiding forces behind some pretty intense activities during this period. Past actions may cause obstacles that must be overcome before current actions can succeed. Anger, if it is aroused under this influence, can be formidably destructive. Transformed into positive energy, it can result in formidable accomplishments.

Transit MARS conjoined natal Saturn
Jul 3 through Jul 6, Exact on Jul 4
This is a tricky period in which you may be required to hurry, but obstacles in your path keep slowing you down. The most maddening prospect is that the obstacles you keep encountering are likely to be ones you bring on yourself. But that is the negative potential. The positive side of the picture is that your energy will focus on becoming more structured and organized. Under this influence, you may be more willing to carefully plan things, and to give greater credence to wisdom and experience before you act or allow others to act. It may be difficult for you to accept the authority or rules imposed on you-- but then, you may not encounter such problems since your tendency for more careful actions these days may keep you from running afoul of others. Dental work or minor surgery may be necessary. Wear clothing appropriate for the weather since there is also increased potential for you to suffer from cold, flu, dermatitis, arthritis and other chronic illness.

Your pulse quickens and feelings lie much closer to the surface these days. Anger or frustration may incite you to throw temper tantrums, or the surge of emotional energy may inspire you to demonstrate your love and affection, depending on current circumstances. What can be expected, however, is that any exhibition of your feelings--positive or negative--is sure to be physically energetic. As the pace of life picks up, family relationships and domestic activities are apt to be the main focus of physical efforts. By choice or circumstance you may decide to give a dinner party, clean the house, make home repairs, build an addition on to your home or a barbecue pit in the back yard, or move to another residence altogether. If you are impulsive by nature, it is likely to be accentuated during this period by increased tendencies to turn feelings into physical action. Inattention, restlessness, and a greater need for haste may have unpleasant consequences for you, your children, or other family members. Avoid driving too fast, and take precautions when using sharp instruments or handling flammable materials (especially household materials). When cooking and baking be careful to monitor the time and temperature you use, or your dish may be overdone or burned to a crisp. Check your home for possible fire hazards. The heating or cooling system of your home or car may require repairs or replacement. Make an effort to protect yourself, especially from excessive insect bites, bleeding, colitis, ulcers, digestive upsets, and insomnia.

You are likely to be confronted with obstacles that block your path to success. Obstacles that could very well be caused by your own ego, stubborn pride, greed, self-indulgence or overestimation. Avoiding such pitfalls in your attitude and behavior, as well as contacts with others who indulge in them, will certainly help to minimize the negative potential you may encounter under this influence. If your nature is not given to being paralyzed with anger or inaction when recognition or success appears to be delayed or denied, you will pass the tests of this period with flying colors, and no doubt obtain your goals in the process.

Jul 20 through Jul 23, Exact on Jul 22
The biggest potential of this period is that you may have to constantly cope with people whose actions and purposes are diametrically opposed to your own. Under this influence your attempts to physically accomplish something may be appropriately compared to hitting your head against the proverbial stone wall. Making little or no headway, you'll end up wondering why you ever wasted your energy in the first place. Nor will you succeed any better with a show of strength or aggressiveness, since these efforts are apt to be met with an equally determined exhibition of force. It may be difficult to sustain any controlled or stable physical efforts at this time, but things may be easier for you if do not waste what energy you have with anything but the most routine, quietly carried out tasks.

Jul 21 through Jul 24, Exact on Jul 23
Unless negative circumstances also occur at this time and discourage the otherwise potential benefits of this period, your general status will greatly improve. Success is apt to be the result of just about anything you attempt. Efforts rarely come to nothing under this influence. Even a failed effort is likely to result in some better prospect. This is definitely the time to promote and demonstrate the position and knowledge you have achieved. You are highly favored in activities that involve long-distance travel, writing, publishing, theater, dance, art, religion, politics, law, investment and finances, and sports. Gambles and other risk-taking ventures are likely to pay off. Men in your life, especially a male parent, are also favored at this time-- and your own good fortune may also come through them. This is a period in which to grab and savor everything that brings enjoyment, humor, truth, and the good life. Do not however, let overconfidence in your own ability, the pursuit of pleasure, or laziness spoil the potential success of enterprises.

Unless negative circumstances also happen to occur and strongly indicate caution, this is an excellent time for a haircut, beauty treatment, dental work, or cosmetic surgery. Under this influence your actions and gestures are likely to be more graceful and elegant; literally as well as figuratively. The social scene is abuzz and everyone is animated and attractive. Romance, partnership, and other alliances flourish. This is a time to do things with others-- cooperative efforts may be able to accomplish what you have not been able to do by yourself. Activities that involve art, design, music, jewelry, flowers, the beauty business, debate, and legal matters are favored.

This is a good time for mixing business with pleasure. Under this influence social contacts can lead to business opportunities, and conversely, business contacts or activities may lead to opportunity for entertainment or socializing. Watch for other situations that may lead to possible partnerships or joint ventures. If you are as attractive as possible and your behavior polite and charming, you will make an impression on the people you encounter. in this period, especially on those with authority and positions of seniority. As a result, such favorable impressions may lead to their valuable cooperation and assistance.

Present circumstances may put you into such a tense or aggravated state as to cause you to do something you would not ordinarily do. Because this influence implies rash as well as unpredictable actions, caution is advised during this period. Keep in mind that not only are your actions unpredictable but also their consequences, that is, whatever you hope to gain by them is not likely to be what results. The performance of machinery and equipment, as well as that of the people who may work for or with you, is also unpredictable at this time. Expect to encounter some snags when you attempt to make changes in work schedules or introduce new methods.

The influence surrounding you during this period is not strong or dynamic enough to cause much change unless it is supplemented by the occurrence of other factors and circumstances that encourage its energy and particular focus. The energy of the influence is favorable however, and is represented by an opportunity to gain power or control, to revitalize or renovate something that has been lost, or to make a new start. Knowing there is a certain amount of favorable energy available, it is then up to you to be on the lookout for possibilities that may come along, and to take advantage of them when they do. You can also use the people and circumstances you encounter to create your own opportunities. All that has just been described relates during this period to education, communications, writing, computers, travel, transportation, sales and other business transactions, community affairs, and contacts with siblings-- and to situations that will eventually lead to your participation or success in these areas. You may also get a chance that will lead to the use or development of your ideas, methods, or basic mechanical or design skills.

Transit MARS sextile natal Pluto
Aug 13 through Aug 16, Exact on Aug 14
Intense energy in the present circumstances represents opportunity for you to gain a more powerful position of one sort or another. Your efforts may lead, for instance, to increased physical strength, more control over your actions, and greater resourcefulness. This period is a chance to put more concentration into your efforts, whatever they are. Taking advantage of the people and circumstances you encounter, may increase the potential for your ultimate success in activities that involve research and investigation, renovation, recycling, and the analysis and investment of financial assets.

Transit MARS opposed natal Mercury
Aug 15 through Aug 18, Exact on Aug 16
During this period your mental processes are apt to become paralyzed by too much tension in your physical environment. Intellectual efforts such as writing, teaching, and designing are not apt to be successful--that is, if they get anywhere at all. Your plans and ideas are likely to be opposed or dismissed out of hand. Nor is it a favorable time to participate in meetings or discussions since they are apt to be disrupted by angry words, too-hasty exclamations, and an altogether unsatisfactory stream of communications. Under this influence neighbors and/or siblings may turn into temporary opponents. Bad weather is only one potential that makes this an inauspicious time to begin travel of any kind, or even to run a few neighborhood errands. Machinery and equipment refuse to cooperate or break down entirely. There is danger to your hands and fingers as well as the risk of respiratory infections. Move cautiously in all situations. Keep in mind this is a relatively short period--and one that is best spent in concerted efforts to stay out of harm's way.

Transit MARS trine natal Neptune
Aug 17 through Aug 20, Exact on Aug 19
This is a period to use your intuitive abilities, increase your spiritual awareness, investigate dreams and the occult, and carry out as much of your work and other physical activities as possible behind the scenes. Exactly how or by what means some task or achievement is accomplished may not be apparent, nor does it have to be. The successful result such actions are likely to produce will be clear enough to make everybody happy. Some of the most successful work and other physical activities during this period involve in one aspect or another such areas as arts and entertainment (especially dance), photography, charitable institutions, drugs, alcohol, oil, gas, marine life, water sports, and ocean cruises.

This particular influence may not be strong enough to have much of a noticeable impact unless other factors and influences support it. If this is the case, knowledge you gain or the people and situations you encounter during this period, can be instrumental in helping you expand your personal influence and control, or, at the very least, they may enable you to give the impression that you possess such power. An even likelier possibility is that you will gain a much better understanding of the value of power and control, how they can be attained, and how they can be used.

The fortunate circumstances promised during this period involve broadening your intellectual horizons, developing new skills, and seeking new experiences. Communications increase and you are inundated with information and opinions. You are filled with new ideas of you own as well as with enthusiasm and desire to express them one way or another. Though success may not be dropped in your lap, you are certain to run into it if you are involved in higher education, writing, publishing, computers, acting, political or religious activities, travel, broadcasting, direct-mail, advertising, or the law. Your appreciation for speed as well as luxury increases, which in turn may tempt you to buy a sports car or first-class airline tickets. There is more merriment and humor in your environment these days. Good fortune and increased contacts involve siblings and neighbors. Business prospers under this influence, and if it happens to be a neighborhood business, so much the better.

Transit MARS sextile natal Uranus
Sep 19 through Sep 22, Exact on Sep 20
Physical circumstances during this period may give you a chance to introduce a change or new concepts into some aspect of your life or the lives of others. This influence implies opportunity to take advantage of new or nontraditional methods, as well as situations that give you a chance to demonstrate unique methods that you have devised. Other potentials include circumstances that allow you to change current methods, machinery, or mechanical devices in such a way that more people will be able to take advantage of them. Either that, or you have a chance to benefit from such changes that were made by others. Taking advantage of the energy of this influence, you may be able to inspire and coordinate group efforts to accomplish certain tasks.

There is a distinct possibility that you will encounter ego-bruising opposition to your actions at this time. While failure doesn't have to be the final result, this influence does threaten complete success. In the unlikely event that such success does occur, it is likely to be accompanied by loss of integrity. The opinions, and especially the actions of others, are not likely to support your leadership, and indeed, they may directly challenge it. Under this influence vitality and enthusiasm are either lacking or quickly burn out, leaving you with nothing to fuel further efforts. Male relationships may be strained at this time-- possibly by anger or too much competitiveness. Even if you are someone who has no trouble rising to challenges, this period is better suited to keeping a low profile and making plans for a more fortuitous time. Avoid being in the sun too long and activities that put a strain on your heart or spine or that can result in injuries to your head or face.

Be alert to the dangers of illusion and deception that can make it difficult to keep track of reality during this period. There is no predicting exactly what can happen, but it seems certain that those who propose fantastic schemes, and perhaps even more perilously, involve you in fanatic ideas are to be avoided at all cost. The tendency to use self-pity and guilt as an excuse for overindulgence and the use of drugs or alcohol is another discouraging potential in your current circumstances; one that will have serious consequences if you cannot manage to avoid it. Confidential matters are either revealed or are completely distorted or misunderstood. This is a highly inauspicious time for long-distance travel on or over water. It is important to realize that you will probably not be able to remove the forces that oppose you, which only leaves you the option of finding a constructive way to work around them or with them.

Oct 4 through Oct 7, Exact on Oct 5
Your actions during this period may very well be inspired, but they are not apt to be organized, well-planned or carefully executed. The shortest distance between two points is not likely to be the expected straight line. The present atmosphere is not conducive to logical actions, though you may find plenty of rationalizations for the actions you do take. You will have to make a determined effort if you wish to avoid wasting time and energy. Methods used to accomplish something must depend on intuition and instinct, since there may be little else to go on. Under this influence there is a certain amount of danger due to inattention, or because you may simply be unaware of potentially perilous situations. Laziness is another potential obstacle you may have to overcome.

Transit MARS sextile natal Saturn
Oct 4 through Oct 8, Exact on Oct 6
If you are a well-prepared, organized individual with definite goals, you are in the best position to take advantage of opportunities that come along during this period. Nor should you hesitate to go out and deliberately create opportunities to demonstrate your experience and maturity. If you are not such a highly structured, goal-oriented individual, the people and situations you encounter under this influence can offer you the inspiration you need to become better organized, and help you to lay a more solid foundation for the type of success you wish to achieve. This period represents a chance to take advantage of any seniority or position of authority you have in order to get something done.

Transit MARS sextile natal Moon
Oct 14 through Oct 17, Exact on Oct 15
You may get the opportunity to turn feelings into physical actions or to physically express your emotions. If you are involved in creative or artistic activities your efforts now may ultimately lead to successful exhibitions of your work, to greater emotional satisfaction from physically expressing your talent, or a chance to successfully represent the talents of others. If your interest and instincts are aroused-- follow their lead. Current circumstances may bring a chance to promote family relationships and activities or to accomplish domestic tasks. Your children or other family members may be given an opportunity to work or to compete in sports events or other competition. Do not pass up the chance to invite male companions, family members, and business associates to dine. Avoid future problems with appliances and machinery by taking time now to repair them or provide the routine maintenance they require.

You are surrounded by an abundance of free and easygoing energy during this period. If you need help getting things done, it will appear. People you encounter are apt to be applying their physical efforts toward the same or very similar goals. Obstacles in your path are few or nonexistent. Under this influence you can make one effort fit neatly into the next one-- resulting in a series of accomplishments. It is also a time when your physical actions--whatever their purpose-- may have the fortunate consequence of putting you in the right place at the right time.

It is easy to imagine the probable result of blowing up a balloon beyond its capacity. This image is also the easiest description of the circumstances you are likely to encounter during this period. There is a tendency to assume you are capable of far greater abilities than a more honest estimation would suggest-- or, knowing full well your real limitations, it may be a case of your simply giving in to some external pressure or temptation and allowing others to make such inflated assumptions of your capabilities-- either way, you are left trying to accomplish the impossible. Under this influence actions are likely to go too fast and too far. It is in your best interests to remember that there is more than a little potential for unpleasant results if you experience too much of a good thing. This is not an auspicious time for court decisions, traveling abroad, higher education, writing, publishing, and participating in competitive sports. Physical efforts are either totally paralyzed by laziness and unwise actions, or they proceed with such extreme force as to invite dangerous consequences. Spirituality can turn into fanaticism, and intellectuality can become arrogant displays of superiority. Save grandstanding and bravado for another time.

Romance is not a likely or enjoyable prospect, nor for that matter are social activities or communications with co-workers, a partner, or other allies. This is not an auspicious time for marriage and other alliances or joint ventures-- and certainly not a period in which to initiate new ones. During this period everyone is apt to head in opposite directions with no thought of cooperation or willingness to compromise. Under this influence elegance and refined actions are overwhelmed or replaced by bad taste and aggressiveness. Avoid undergoing surgical procedures or beauty treatments to enhance your physical appearance. Do not begin or expect to make progress in redecorating projects or any activities that involve diplomacy, art, or music. If you are traveling, do not expect to encounter amiable company along the way. Your work and other physical efforts are best accomplished alone. Even if you could make more progress with the assistance of others, it may be a case of current circumstances that force you to engage in solitary actions. Energy is wasted on debate, negotiation, legal matters, and counseling. If the potentially negative influence of this period fails to appear or disrupt your routine, count yourself fortunate.

The vitality in the people and situations you encounter now is likely to be of an intense and purposeful nature. And it is also true that they may be of the sort to inspire you to be a good deal more forceful than usual in expending your own energy. This is a time, for example, when you can successfully tackle projects that require more than the usual amount of patience and concentration. From a negative point of view, your interaction with others can cause you to become deeply jealous and vengeful, perhaps with truly perilous results; and thus, it would not be wise to confront or provoke a hostile situation. Several positive uses for this influence include rejuvenating certain aspects of your life; bringing out your hidden talents; finding new uses for old things; assessing and investing assets of all kinds; and conducting research and investigation, especially concerning the mysteries of the science and nature.

Transit MARS trine natal Mercury
Nov 19 through Nov 22, Exact on Nov 20
A surge of physical energy and enthusiasm may prompt you to turn thoughts or ideas into actions--the results of which can be very successful. Sales, installation and repair of machinery or equipment are highly favored. Sales of any kind are likely to be more energetic and successful. This also applies to travel, activities and meetings, and the physical dissemination of information. Work that is done or business that is owned or operated by you and/or your siblings is likely to flourish at this time, especially if the job or business is in your neighborhood. Under this influence good fortune or good news comes through the mail or by telephone. This is an auspicious period for writing, designing, buying a car or other motorized vehicles, or developing your mechanical or computer skills.

This is a period to look for opportunities that expand your spiritual and artistic awareness and allow you to develop and use your intuitive abilities. Taking advantage of the people and situations you encounter under this influence, may lead to more mundane opportunities including a chance to go swimming, fishing, sailing, or dancing. Depending on your particular interests and the nature of circumstances at this time, your efforts may mean eventual success in activities that involve such areas as promotion, photography, magic, illusion, oil or gas industries, charitable institutions, bankruptcy proceedings, art and entertainment. The only problem you encounter during this period may be in distinguishing genuine opportunities from false or misleading promises. Be as astute as you can under the circumstances.

Nov 22 through Nov 25, Exact on Nov 24
The difficulties and delays you encounter during this period are likely to be caused by lack of preparation, planning, and organization--either on your part or that of others. The maddening thing is that even if you are the most careful individual, you are apt to be caught just when things are in disarray, or, just when you need something, it cannot be located in time. Bad timing is, in fact, one of the biggest obstacles to progress. Under this influence others may physically resist or even threaten your seniority or position of authority-- nor are you likely to take it graciously when they do. The best part of the present circumstances is the potential that you will eventually succeed, even if it is because maturity and experience dictates that you keep on going until everything goes as it should.

Transit MARS square natal Moon
Dec 2 through Dec 5, Exact on Dec 3
Things are not as apt to run smoothly during this period. Equipment falters or breaks down, causing frustration and delay. Encountering traffic jams is a strong possibility, especially if you are homeward bound and/or children or household errands are the reason for being out in the first place. Accidents or temper tantrums waste more time. Under this influence you may suffer from digestive complaints-- the likely consequences of anger, frustration, or eating too fast. Care should be taken not to arouse antagonism in male relationships. Check your home for possible fire hazards. Disagreement between family members, whether or not the arguments involve you, can be enough to send you somewhere else until things quiet down. When cooking or baking be sure to check the time and temperature you use, or your food may be overdone, or even burned. Even with all the potential for trouble and frustration, it is nevertheless possible to accomplish quite a bit. Things may get done because of rather than in spite of the obstacles that must be overcome.

Transit MARS square natal Mars
Dec 11 through Dec 14, Exact on Dec 13
The raw energy in your present environment is stimulating, but the tension it also implies can bring anger and frustration that slow down efforts to get things done. Everyone may be too busy to pay enough attention to helping anyone else. It is not the time for indecisive actions or you run the risk that others will attain the success you had hoped to achieve. This period is one of a decidedly masculine influence. The methods needed are apt to require physical strength, and the energy with which they are performed must be rough and aggressive-- making up in forcefulness and determination for what may be lacking in caution or refinement.

Dec 25 through Dec 29, Exact on Dec 27
The actions of others during this period may inspire you positively or negatively (there's no telling which) to do something quite out of character. Energetic vibrations in the general atmosphere may urge you to emphasize your own uniqueness or nontraditional approach to things. Of course, the reverse may also be true, and you will encounter some fairly unusual or nontraditional people and circumstances. There are other potentials. Under this influence, there may be more enthusiasm and energy in friendships and in your participation in groups and organizations. You may develop or be introduced to new techniques and methods. You may have increased enthusiasm for nontraditional or occult subjects as well as more traditional topics such as history, sociology, finance, and antiques.

Transit MARS trine natal Sun
Dec 27 through Dec 31, Exact on Dec 29
This can be an ego-boosting period in which you feel more confident that your efforts will be successful. In turn, this is the kind of attitude that attracts the people and success you are looking for. Self-promotion works very well, as does using the efforts of others to your own advantage. Other potentials imply that your physical efforts--whatever they may be-- may bring you recognition or a position of leadership, and that you may be more generous in helping others. Though this influence increases vitality, it can also promote a certain amount of laziness. If you are by nature a less-than-energetic individual, this period is not likely to galvanize you into action. It may be your good fortune however, to get others to do the work for you. Some of the most highly favored activities include those that involve men or products and services related to men, military maneuvers, sports, surgical procedures, manufacturing, and firearms. Just plain good luck can save you from accidents and other mishaps. The only word of warning is not to take things too much for granted, or become too sure of yourself.

Transit SATURN trine natal Mars
Dec 29 through Dec 31
Physical actions are favored with success during this period. Efforts apt to be most successful are of two kinds; those that represent the past, a culmination of hard work and experience, and those that occur now and are undertaken in a careful, methodical way with an eye toward eventual success. Male relationships are solid and well favored these days. Removal of cataracts or dental work, including oral surgery is successful if undertaken at this time. This is a period of smooth functioning for mechanical and physical systems. Tradition and authority are given proper attention and respect, and as a result, substantial benefits of one kind or another are gained.
