The dynamic activity of your ruling planet, Jupiter, could make this an extraordinary year. Wise and generous Jupiter joins Neptune, the planet of spirituality and faith, on May 27, July 10 and December 21, opening your heart and mind to an inspiring vision of your future. Your imagination grows, your spirit soars and a greater awareness of the meaning of life nourishes your hunger for spiritual understanding. Jupiter also conjuncts Chiron the Wounded Healer on May 23, July 22 and December 7, adding another layer of sensitivity and compassion to this memorable period of your life. Vulnerability can become a gift now, rather than a burden or source of embarrassment. The tenderness of your heart and the flexibility of your mind allow you discoveries that you couldn't make with intellect alone. What you're seeing could appear to be beyond your reach, but it's not. Jupiter, Neptune and Chiron are present in your 3rd House of Immediate Environment, allowing you to perceive the many blessings in your daily life and reminding you that you can turn dreams into reality.

Overall Trends
This year challenges you to balance outer responsibilities with a deep longing for freedom. Taking small steps toward increasing your independence gets better results than acting on impulse. An open and expansive state of mind helps you imagine new possibilities for resolution. You have enhanced powers to inspire others by sharing your ideas, especially when you're expressing yourself from the heart. Public speaking, teaching and writing lead to unexpected opportunities.

Love
Your ability to connect and communicate is stronger than ever this year. If you're looking for love, get out and circulate -- friends and neighbors could introduce you to someone special. From March 6 to April 18, Venus travels Retrograde in your 5th House of Romance -- not an auspicious time for new beginnings. Instead, focus on reconsidering your heart's true desires, and resolving relationship issues from the past.

Career and Finance
At the end of October you complete a two-year cycle of intense focus on your career and long-term goals. Organizing, simplifying and finishing one project at a time can help you reach the finish line successfully and gain the recognition you deserve. Feelings of restlessness -- peaking in February and September -- can serve as motivation for bringing more excitement into your work. Develop new skills to enhance your earning potential.

Health
Greater sensitivity to subtle energies this year means that you could be more susceptible to allergies or environmental influences. But your body is also more likely to respond to energetic and spiritual healing methods, like meditation and prayer. Be open to experimenting with alternative approaches. While Mercury is Retrograde in your 6th House of Health from May 6 to 30, rework your self-care habits and schedule extra time for rest and regeneration.

What to Look Forward To
There's no limit to where your mind and imagination can take you this year. You don't need to travel far to find inspiration -- short trips, classes, book groups or writing projects awaken your visionary potential. When you communicate your dreams and ideals, you attract allies who can help bring them into reality. May, July and December are especially auspicious times for taking the risk of sharing your intuitive perceptions.

What To Watch Out For
While your mind expands to the far reaches of the galaxy, your challenge is to discern the difference between distracting fantasies and genuine inspiration. Be patient enough to listen closely to what's being said, and gather adequate information, rather than letting your imagination fill in the details. Dream big, but do your homework before taking action.

The heightened stimulation of Jupiter, Neptune and Chiron in your 3rd House of Learning is likely to intensify your interest in sharing new ideas with others. Expressing yourself creatively through writing or teaching can be especially rewarding now. However, you may have intuitive experiences or psychic perceptions that aren't easily put into words and some people you know might not be open to such unconventional ideas. Finding less literal forms of communication such as art, music or dance may prove more satisfying -- these connect directly to the profound inspiration you're feeling. Letting go of one form of telling your story and replacing it with a new one may result from a Solar Eclipse in your 3rd House of Communication on January 26. A conjunction to the eclipse from visionary Jupiter empowers you to broaden your perspective and gives you the enthusiasm to effectively present it to others.
Staying on course professionally might be a challenge this year as Saturn, the planet of responsibility, passes through your 10th House of Career and opposes rebellious Uranus in your 4th House of Home and Family. Face-offs on February 5 and September 15 -- the second and third in a series of five that began in November 2008 and finishes in July 2010 -- divide you between your job obligations and an urge for personal freedom. These planetary struggles can make it difficult to concentrate on your career, perhaps even signaling that difficulties at home require your close attention. Ideally, strategic Saturn helps you chart a new course in your life that brings more excitement to your work, including the possibility of starting your own business. If you don't have that option, however, make sure to take as many breaks from your responsibilities as you can to avoid burning out or blowing up and making an impulsive move you could regret.
