You may feel time is running out, but if you stay focused on what's real, you'll be ready for the significant changes heading your way. Somber Saturn entered critical Virgo and your 12th House of Destiny on September 2, 2007, signaling the beginning of an end. Saturn continues to remind you of what must be completed prior to its entry into your sign on October 29. Don't wait until the last moment to finish old business for you might have backed yourself into a corner by then. Look over recent years and consider what can be pruned from your life as a fourteen-year growing season reaches culmination. Starting in November, Saturn in objective Libra will crystallize your successes and reveal your failures.
Maintaining regularity in your daily routine continues to be an issue for you as unpredictable Uranus journeys through your 6th House of Health and Habits. This phase started in May 2003, yet something is different now. Your desire for change became more intense when Saturn first opposed Uranus on November 4, 2008. This cosmic tug-of-war between the planets of constraint and release that began last year is exact again on February 5 and September 15, raising tension as you try to balance your desire for increased freedom with karmic responsibilities that you accepted previously. There is no quick solution to this profound life dilemma: The opposition recurs through July 26, 2010. It can take another year until you fully understand the ramifications of this shift and where your new path will take you.

Overall Trends
Following your heart takes you into surprising territory this year, opening doors to unexpected opportunities and inspiring connections. Pay attention to what truly feels like fun to you, and take the risk of acting on your desires. Powerful creative energy is available, especially when you're willing to stay flexible and surrender control. Balance socializing with some solitude so you can also focus on completing old business before Saturn enters your sign on October 29.

Love
Your super-charged 5th House of Romance indicates abundant opportunities to attract a new love or reignite the flames of a current relationship. May, July and December are especially auspicious. Get involved in community projects and spiritual activities to enhance your chances at meeting someone special. Your challenge is to distinguish between fantasy and reality -- don't waste your time pursuing unattainable ideals.

Career and Finance
This year you complete a two-year process of reconnecting with your inner purpose and dreaming up a new vision for your work in the world. In February and September you'll get clear messages about what you need to do to move forward. When Saturn moves into your own sign on October 29, you'll be ready to take action. Increase your income by networking with the right people and working as part of a team.

Health
Taking time to rest and relax may be more important to your health this year than trying to stick to rigid exercise programs or strict diets. Your daily routines are likely to be disrupted by unexpected events, so stay flexible. Focus on small and simple ways to take care of yourself no matter what's going on around you -- like taking frequent time-outs for deep breathing, meditation or stretching.

What to Look Forward To
This is a year for opening your heart and expanding into a sense of happiness beyond what you thought was possible. Approach your life as a game, and keep moving toward what inspires you. The more fun you're having, the easier it is to magnetize friends and playmates who can help bring your dreams into reality.

What To Watch Out For
As transformational Pluto starts a several-year visit to your 4th House of Foundations, you may feel like you're standing on shaky ground. Instead of holding tighter to the old ways or trying to shore up existing structures, embrace the change that wants to happen. Start by letting go of non-essential possessions and self-sabotaging emotional patterns.

Personalized 2009 Predictions
Master astrologers Jeff Jawer and Rick Levine reveal how your stars align in 2009. A custom Big Picture Astrology Forecast offers a whole year's worth of advice based on your unique astrology birth chart. Look into your future with:
Start My Forecast
You are a natural diplomat who's often ready to set your personal needs aside to make others happy. You are particularly sensitive to the movement of Venus your ruling planet. She goes retrograde -- as she does every year and a half -- on March 6, turning your desires inward. Normally, Venus breezes though a sign in about a month, but this retrograde keeps her in impulsive Aries in your 7th House of Partnerships for most of February–May, making it easier than normal for you to charm others without sacrificing your needs.
But there's good news, too, as foretold by a rare super-conjunction among three spiritual planets -- expansive Jupiter, healing Chiron and intuitive Neptune -- in your 5th House of Self-Expression. You have an opportunity now -- perhaps even an obligation to yourself -- to make the most of this year by saying yes to love, life and the creative potential hidden in every moment. Of course, serious Saturn will prevent you from flying off a cliff without the proper wings, but your imagination is uncontainable and not restrainable. Giving yourself permission to dream can reawaken your inner child and make anything seem possible. It will, however, take a dose of common sense to manage such unbridled enthusiasm that knows no bounds. Encourage your creative visions, but keep your feet on the ground, especially while this buoyant trio coalesces on May 23–27, July 10–22 and December 7–21.
