Although Pisces is symbolized by two fish swimming in opposite directions, they are linked by a mystical thread that is the real key to understanding your sign. These opposing forces will test you this year in ways that can alter the fabric of your life -- yet you have a rare opportunity to grow if you can focus on the connection instead of the differences. At times, you may feel as if you're spinning wheels without making progress, for taskmaster Saturn in hardworking Virgo opposite your sun sign until October 29 places your goals out of reach. To better understand this long-term success cycle, consider what obstacles you had to overcome when Saturn was in your sign from January 1994 until April 1996. You may have started on a pathway back then and are now at a decisive moment -- for your journey may not be turning out as expected. Therefore, Saturn's visit to Virgo, which began in September 2007, can be rather discouraging. Keep in mind that this is a natural part of the cycle; it's a great time to prune what you no longer need, creating room for new growth ahead.

Overall Trends
Since 2003, revolutionary Uranus in your sign has inspired you to make radical changes. Your quest to express more of yourself continues, this year tested by the pressing responsibilities of daily life. Simplifying, organizing and streamlining your activities and relationships helps you feel a greater sense of freedom. Find small but significant and lasting ways to liberate yourself -- authorize your own freedom or risk giving your power away to others.

Love
Saturn's journey through your 7th House of Partners until October 29 shows you clearly what does and does not work in relationships. You have a strong need for freedom and independence now. If you set boundaries and structure time for personal space into partnerships, you'll have a better chance at success than if you suppress your needs. Move slowly into commitments -- make sure your feelings back up what seems like a good idea.

Career and Finance
You're longing for more meaningful work, motivating you to make changes on your professional path. While 2009 is great for awakening to a new vision, it may be next year before you have the energy and resources to bring your dream into reality. Your best approach to finances this year is to simplify, downsize, and streamline. While Venus is Retrograde from March 3 to April 17, review and rework your financial plans.

Health
Your mind is more active than usual this year, and your nervous system is more susceptible to stress. Cut back on caffeine and other stimulants, and make a practice of relaxing your mind and body through yoga or other gentle exercise. Acupuncture and other forms of energy healing are also helpful to reduce stress and enhance overall well-being. Breaking free from long-standing self-sabotaging habits is easier this year, especially in February and September.

What To Watch Out For
Escapist tendencies could be magnified this year, as a cluster of planets activates your 12th House of the Unconscious. You'll get clear information about self-sabotaging patterns, so put this insight to use -- making changes can be surprisingly easy. Creative expression is a necessity for you this year. Your imagination is so busy that it needs something to do -- don't leave it to its own devices.

Start My Forecast
Normally, you are at ease in the midst of contradictory currents that would disturb others. Your ability to go with the flow is legendary and enables you to adapt to the needs of those around you. Since unconventional Uranus entered your sign in 2003, though, you've been on a quest to reclaim your sense of self and express your individuality -- even if it means shattering other people's expectations of you. This process of self-realization will continue until Uranus leaves Pisces in 2011. However, its long-term opposition with traditional Saturn this year sets you in the middle of an irresolvable tug-of-war between your need for independence and the inescapable responsibilities of your life. The stressful Saturn-Uranus opposition began on November 4, 2008 and recurs this year on February 5 and September 15 to push you to the edge of your patience. You are ready to break free from unacceptable restraints or break out of boring routines -- yet too many impulsive actions can wreak havoc on your stability and security. Since this aspect repeats twice more through the spring and summer of 2010, it's best to make smaller adjustments now while you work toward the bigger changes ahead. If you don't begin to take charge of your own destiny this year, unexpected events are likely to alter your current landscape whether you like it or not.
A once-every-thirteen-years conjunction of your co-ruling planets -- visionary Jupiter and imaginative Neptune -- is joined this year by Chiron the Wounded Healer in your 12th House of Destiny. This rare and inspirational super-conjunction can bless your year with hope for a better future, soothe old emotional pains and rejuvenate your spirit. It's up to you, however, to reach beyond your old comfort zone to receive these benefits, especially on May 23–27, July 10–22 and December 7–21 when the alignment is exact.
