You are a take-charge, run-your-own-show kind of person who is generally comfortable with responsibility squarely on your shoulders. However, learning to share the load is both your gift and challenge this year. Support is available to you from several sources, but that means having to give up some control. It's natural to resist; after all, you've been self-reliant in so many ways for most of your life. Trusting that someone else will do things exactly as you would is probably not easy. The lesson, though, is in learning that there are many effective ways to get a job done. Accepting this fact opens the door wide to a more rewarding year ahead.

Expansive Jupiter in Sagittarius almost all year is lighting up your 12th House of Spirituality, where dreams are born and the possibility of making them real spurs your imagination. The greatest opportunities come to you in ways that may not be seen by others. Inner growth, both in the realm of your desires and in your connection to the divine, is a private activity with rich rewards that don't require external recognition. You are soothing your soul and preparing the soil for future growth with behind-the-scenes activities. Take plenty of time for this contemplative work, even if it makes you less visible socially or professionally. This is a rare chance to advance your spiritual knowledge, a once-every-twelve-years magical retreat, when you recharge your batteries and quest for higher meaning.

Saturn, your ruling planet, starts the year in Leo and enters Virgo on Sept. 2, moving from your 8th House of Regeneration to your 9th House of Higher Learning. Saturn is associated with duty, necessity, and hard, cold reality. Its passage through your 8th House, which began in July 2005, is a time of testing relationships, as issues of trust, control, and power are likely to arise. You may be tempted to pull away from a tough negotiation since neither side is willing to compromise. But Saturn rewards you for persistence; if you value the contribution this individual can make, hanging in there will build a powerful alliance. Respect the strength of others, and make sure that your value is being recognized by them as well. When Saturn enters Virgo, the focus will shift from the complexities of partnership to concerns about education, religion, politics and philosophy. Additional schooling to advance yourself professionally is a good investment of your resources. Expressing your beliefs in practical ways turns theory into reality.

Eclipses in March, late August, and September occurring in your 3rd House of Communication and 9th House of Big Ideas provide new facts that alter your beliefs and future plans. Don't allow stubborn pride to keep you from taking in this information, even though it rocks your boat. Emotions can distort data so that you misread the signs. Take a breath when you react strongly to an unfamiliar idea. Rely on your logic to assess what you hear in a less defensive manner so that you can objectively measure its usefulness.
