Jan 5 through Jan 12, 2008, exact on Jan 8

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 SATURN square natal Saturn
Jan 1 through Jan 29, exact on Jan 10

There is little flexibility in your current circumstances. The key is to find the little that is there. People and situations you encounter are too much alike, imposing too many of the same restrictions, fears, or formalities to allow for new growth or overwhelming success. The positive side is that it is only temporary and should not be allowed to drastically interfere with your plans and goals.

Jan 16 through Jan 25, exact on Jan 21

Dissatisfaction with wealth or personal achievement can creep into your environment this period. You may also find it difficult to find anyone who is the least impressed with you or your efforts. You may think you have achieved something worthwhile, only to find someone else has already done the same thing, or worse, they have done it better. 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. In spite of the potential for overblown efforts or discouraging comparisons, if things do go along smoothly during this period, you would be wise not to take anything for granted or push too hard.

Jan 1 through Feb 6, exact on Jan 22

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 conjoined natal Mercury
Mar 5 through Mar 10, exact on Mar 8

Mental energies are high--urging you to turn thoughts into actions. An energetic stream of information and ideas flows through your immediate environment, and there is strong potential that much of it is generated by you. A faster pace and increased volume of communications can become chaotic, and at times, inspire an aggressive atmosphere-- verbal combat being a not unlikely prospect. You do not hesitate to speak your mind or demand that others do the same. On the other hand, it may be a case of others who challenge you to defend your ideas or opinions. Meetings and discussion groups tend to be enthusiastic and energetic, or, if the conditions encourage such an atmosphere, they may be aggressive and combative. By choice or circumstance you may put more physical efforts into the use or development of athletic, mechanical, computer, or artistic skills. Under this influence, sales and other commercial transactions and business activities are more vigorous--though the competition encountered may also be more fierce. Your car or other motorized vehicles, office equipment, or computer may require repairs or replacement. A greater urge to travel is apt to be accompanied by increased tendency to speed. As a result you are tempted to drive too fast or become unduly impatient when stuck in traffic jams. You may be unavoidably detained by delays in public transportation. There is also potential to suffer from headaches and cuts or burns, especially to the head, face, hands, or fingers.

Transit URANUS square natal Venus
Feb 19 through Mar 25, exact on Mar 8

This period is likely to bring circumstances that unexpectedly disrupt or alter female friendships, romantic situations, social contacts, marriage or partnership. Joint ventures and other cooperative efforts may suddenly fall apart or be changed in some way. Though the potential of this period is disruption in the status of relationships and situations in the areas just mentioned, it does not necessarily signal an end to them. If relationships and common goals involved are solid enough to withstand the circumstances and challenges that threaten to disturb them, they may become even more enduring as a result of the struggle. Social events, diplomatic maneuvers, or artistic pursuits that you undertake at this time are sure to be plagued by unexpected developments, last minute changes, or any number of other chaotic circumstances that in turn, are likely to be caused by the actions or decisions of others over which you have no control. This is not a favorable time for beauty treatments or cosmetic surgery, since the results of such endeavors may not be what you anticipated. Under this influence you may encounter unusual social circumstances, be offered an unorthodox alliance, and surprised by the unpleasant or unhappy reactions of others.

Transit SATURN square natal Uranus
Mar 7 through Apr 8, exact on Mar 21

Things may become frustrating during this period, especially when dealing with older people. You’ll be in trouble if you are too liberal, and yet stymied by taking a too conservative approach. In the broad circumstances you may encounter under this influence, too much emphasis on the future with no consideration for tradition and past experience is apt to be as unsuccessful as being stuck in the past unable to consider the future. Stand back and let things settle of their own accord to a level that seems comfortable for everyone.

Transit MARS conjoined natal Jupiter
Mar 22 through Mar 27, exact on Mar 24

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 PLUTO opposed natal Mercury
Feb 1 through Jun 6, station on Apr 2

This long-term, unfavorable influence may be described as the struggle between opposing forces, a contest of wills, and no-compromise situations. Something gained may have been won at the expense of something more important that has been lost. The worst thing to have to accept during this period is that you will not succeed in removing the opposing forces. Perhaps the most positive thing to say is that you may be able (in fact you will probably be forced) to find a constructive way to work around them. This is a strong influence but its impact will nevertheless be modified by other factors such as your age, past experiences, and other influences and circumstances that also occur during this period. Thoughts, ideas, and self-expression become more intense and serious as your intellectual awareness deepens. Consciously or subconsciously, you seek greater personal power and control through the use of knowledge and information. There is likely to be a significant change or even a complete transition in the way you think or express yourself, in your previous concepts, and in the methods you use. The struggles you encounter are likely to represent efforts to control some aspect of your activities involving education, writing, computers, communications, travel, transportation, sales and other business transactions, community affairs, contacts with siblings, and development or use of your basic mechanical or design skills. During this period, your interest and activities may involve psychological analysis as well as the more occult studies of the mind. Your job or work may also involve some aspect of investigation, research, and development of ideas. The most positive approach to this negative influence is to remain aware of its consequences. Avoid fanatic ideas and those who promote them. Avoid obsessive or compulsive thoughts as well as acts. Move with wisdom and caution even if it means not moving at all. Misdeeds or mistakes made now may come back to haunt you.

Transit JUPITER opposed natal Sun
Mar 27 through Apr 17, exact on Apr 5

The current circumstances are not designed to increase your prosperity. The male parent or other prominent male figure or his status and influence are not favored. Circumstances come along during this period that deplete your material assets. Your generosity is likely to benefit the wrong people or be wasted in worthless endeavors. Those who would like to help you are apt to be rendered powerless themselves or unwittingly steer you in the wrong direction. Those who come to you with grandiose ideas or the promise of some successful enterprise are not likely to be able to deliver, no matter how well-intentioned they are. Of course, this is not to say you have no choice in the matter. A conservative attitude may keep you from overreaching yourself in one way or another. Though unlikely to occur, victories and other successes that are won under this influence, are not apt to be gained without the compromise of your principles or self-esteem. 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.

Transit URANUS trine natal Sun
Mar 26 through May 6, exact on Apr 14

The influence of this period is favorable, though it is unlikely you will be in control of or be able to manipulate the circumstances by which you will benefit. Success or good fortune may come your way by default, through your meritorious efforts or a combination of both these things. The target of the influence has little to do with enhancing your emotional life or fulfilling desires, at least not directly. It has more to do with promoting your individuality, increasing your willpower, and bringing ego-satisfying success. This is why you should not pass up situations that allow you to exhibit integrity, honesty, creativity, and uniqueness as an individual. If it is leadership, advanced position, or attainment of career goals you seek, this is the period to move forward in appropriate directions; sustained by the firm belief that this unpredictable but favorable influence, will eventually bring about suitable rewards and recognition of your efforts. Expect the unexpected since it is likely to be a good thing.

Transit MARS conjoined natal Sun
Apr 19 through Apr 23, exact on Apr 21

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 MARS conjoined natal Moon
Apr 24 through Apr 27, exact on Apr 26

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.

Transit SATURN sextile natal Mercury
Apr 8 through May 27, station on May 3

Circumstances may present opportunity to make profitable use of your knowledge or training, or to establish important business or personal contacts. However, this is not to give you the impression that such things will happen by lightning strokes of good luck. This influence is positive in that it implies a valuable opportunity, but such happenstance is connected with slow and methodical work, organization, and planning. Those you are more apt to impress, and who will ultimately be of help to you, are themselves likely to be advocates of traditional thinking with a formal, structured approach to things. Under this beneficial influence the circumstances favor making business contacts, gathering and organizing information and statistics, and investigating commercial opportunities.

Transit MARS sextile natal Neptune
May 3 through May 6, exact on May 4

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.

Transit JUPITER opposed natal Moon
Apr 19 through May 29, station on May 9

Emotional lows are the potential result of your current circumstances. But if you are possessed of a fighting spirit, the loss of hope or promise during this period can inspire you to hang in there. 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. Though established relationships can be pulled apart by hysteria and vastly inflated emotional needs, they may eventually emerge the stronger for the experience. Weaker emotional commitments will, of course, be even more seriously threatened by this influence. If they are dissolved, at least it will provide the freedom for you to eventually establish new and stronger alliances. Freedom is likely to be an underlying factor in most of what occurs during this period. It would be foolhardy to expect any tangible material gains. If such is the case and your fondest desires are fulfilled, they will not be yours except at a very high price. Home and family are burdened with an overloaded emotional environment. Children are apt to be out of control. Nor is this a favorable period for speculative ventures of any kind, especially not those that deal with agricultural products, real estate, or domestic goods. There is liable to be a glut of these things in the market place. Perhaps one of the best things to keep in mind during this period is that more is not likely to mean better. Act accordingly.

Transit MARS sextile natal Uranus
May 13 through May 17, exact on May 15

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.

Transit MARS conjoined natal Pluto
May 17 through May 20, exact on May 18

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.
