PLANET REPORT: For the fourth time in 17 months, May opens with an exact and tense Saturn/Uranus opposition splicing across the late degrees of the Virgo/Pisces polarity. Like a receding coastline that has endured years of erosion, Saturn, the planet of established rules and regulations, must give ground against the waves of assaults that revolutionary Uranus (backed by philosophical Jupiter) hurls back against the old structures as it moves out of Pisces and into Aries for a three month stint on May 28th. Uranus has been in Pisces since 2003 so a new generation is about to be born who will be pioneering go-getters in whatever they do. Giving us a taste of things to come between late May and mid-August, this new era that will take root properly in March 2011 when Uranus takes the Ram by the horns and moves permanently into Aries until March 2019. One last clash will occur between the old and new though in July when both planets draw a line in the sand and the last in this nail-biting series of connections takes place that will reflect a definite divide within society. As captain of its own ship, but nevertheless embroiled in this conflict by echoing Uranus’ sentiments when it opposes Saturn on May 23rd, Jupiter navigates through Uranus’ choppy wake, following it across the boundary line into Aries on June 6th and finally catching up with Uranus on June 8th. Leading up to the first in a series of four connections, Jupiter catches up with Uranus on June 8th and we will go from a subdued, pulled in energy to a cracker combination of sizzling surprises and sudden twists and turns of events, people and situations that push us in brand new directions between now and January 2011. Mercury’s direct motion on the May 12th may encourage holding on to stubborn thought patterns but we would be better off using resources to practical advantage than resisting change which may be inevitable. The New Moon of the 14th brings an opportunity to look toward the future while the Full Moon of the 28th helps to put feelings into words and tidy up situations that began six months ago.
ARIES: Your sign will be host to two new tenants from May 28th and June 6th respectively. Uranus in your sign only happens once every 84 years and Jupiter once every twelve years so you can see from this that a unique set of cosmic forces will set a unique set of conditions in motion that you will not have experienced before. How you approach this and what you make of it is always a matter of free will but if you are prepared to look to the future rather than the past, life will be that much more amazing. You will be given four chances to make radical changes, free up your life and change your perspective in June, August, September 2010 and January 2011 and it all starts this month. Yes, other people will still be there with their issues but it will be the way you approach what is taking place that makes the difference. It’s time to find reinvent your life!
TAURUS: Mercury turns direct in your sign on the 12th after a period of review and reflection that began on April 18th. How you have communicated your ideas and feelings will begin to bear results and this proves quite timely now that you are in a new birthday cycle. Clearing the deadwood and pruning your personal garden either through events occurring or through conscious choice will help you plan and strategise as we head into a bigger cosmic cycle that people under 84 years of age will not have witnessed before. For you, this new cycle will occur on a very private level where an internal revolution may be taking place. A quickening of internal processes may occur and you may feel jumpy or nervous but if you go with the flow and allow new images to take form, you will find that by January 2011 a whole new you emerges.
GEMINI: Your ruler Mercury turns direct on the 12th in the area of your chart that relates to confidential or internal processes that others are not aware of. A period of personal review may be at hand that you will slowly be able to express externally once your birthday month arrives. Shifting old patterns may be difficult but if you are aware that we are entering into a new era that begins at the end of May, you will realize that there are promising new developments just around the corner. For this reason, it’s best to let go of the old baggage and think along practical lines so that you are in a position to make the most of opportunities, events and people who will certainly prove stimulating between now and January 2011. Late born Geminis will still need to contend with family, home and domestic issues that have been evident for the past two years but once you get through this phase, you will be able to work more creatively as you build new structures around your self-expression.
CANCER: Let’s hope you are ready to handle the amount of publicity, kudos or attention that Uranus and Jupiter moving into the highest part of your chart will bring! Being pushed into the limelight could be unnerving and unexpected but going with the flow will help to alleviate the nerves. Since you will be so publicly placed for big or small things, for better or worse, you need to be quick on the uptake but cautious of what you say or do until you are certain of your position. You can learn so much from what takes place now and it’s probably a matter of being thrown in at the deep end and learning on the job. For others, parental actions, concerns or activities may alter your direction in totally new ways.
LEO: Ending a long phase of financial situations that have involved other people or institutions via commitments to mortgages, hire purchases, credit cards, settlements, insurance or taxes, you will finally be able to move on from matters that will hopefully be a thing of the past. Moving out of this area and into your zone of travel, higher education, philosophical beliefs and publishing, Uranus and then Jupiter will act like a lightning bolt that brings you to attention. Sparking up your life so that you suddenly feel very passionately about aiming for goals that will come to fruition in about a year’s time, you have every reason to believe in yourself and aim as high as you can. And even if you don’t travel, you will meet people from other creeds, classes and cultures who can teach you something new and unusual.
VIRGO: Your ruler Mercury turns direct on the 12th in the area of your chart that extends your mind and enriches your life through direct experiences such as long distance travel, courses that lead to a qualification or by publishing ideas that can help others to make their own lives richer. Suddenly the practicalities of what can be achieved become apparent from mid-May. This is a good time to look to the future because by early June the first in a four part cosmic dance between Jupiter and Uranus will begin that will liberate you from financial situations such as mortgages, taxes, debts and shared money. Wiping the slate clean via sudden and unexpected windfalls or turnarounds could be on the cards. You’ve been cautious and conservative for sometime now but you will soon be able to take risks without fear of the consequences.
LIBRA: Despite the slow start to May, do not be lulled into thinking that your life will remain in a static state forever! As early as June 6th there will be a synchronistic sequence of events that will propel your relationships in new directions – this sequence will play itself out over the next seven months. Commitment will not be name of the game but rather having fun and freeing yourself via the people you meet or the changes that occur in the people who are close to you. Even on a professional level you are likely to encounter people who do things very differently. Take others as they come rather than trying to stereotype or pigeon- hole. Librans who are in a relationship will find the rules changing very quickly and this can be either freeing or frightening depending on how static or flowing you would like your life to be.
SCORPIO: The half way point of your solar year is here and a New Moon in opposite sign Taurus occurs on the 14th that will reveal areas in your relationships where you need to move forward. It won’t be until after this date that discussions and agreements can lead to a general consensus and in the meantime you need to look beyond the current constraints and realise that a bigger and brighter future is just around the corner. We are entering into a phase of liberation somewhere in each of our lives and for you this will take place in your day-to-day routine, where exciting new events or procedures make one day totally different to the next. For others it will be in the area of health and wellbeing where new regimes, techniques or therapies can be experimented with. You may also discover ways to dispel the effects of the past, which will still there be in the shadows, and this can be liberating in itself.
SAGITTARIUS: Your ruler Jupiter is gearing up to change signs on June 6th and on June 8th it catches up to Uranus to create a revolution in the way you approach romance, your self-expression or the realm of children. This cosmic scenario will play itself out over the next seven months and will be something of a roller coast ride. Sudden pregnancies or ready-made families could be on the agenda for some Archers, while for others sudden attractions to people who have been totally off your radar could happen. It may be baffling but it’s what these people represent and how they reflect back to you your own desire to be something or someone that you have had difficulty expressing that will be the real attraction. On another level, you may suddenly find yourself wanting to play more either through creative acts or simply going out a lot more than you have been. Enjoy the ride but don’t leave others behind!
CAPRICORN: Home is the last place your heart will want to be once Uranus and then Jupiter enter this area of your chart in late May and early June. Exciting changes are on the way but first you must overcome hurdles in your public or professional life before you can move on as there is a residual matter that needs to be cleared up that has been hanging around for the last two years. You will need to acknowledge what you have gleaned from events before you can move on. Once this has been achieved, you may find yourself hankering after a bigger space or place to live. This can result in buying, selling, renovating or moving to another locale. Events will move along quite quickly once decisions have been made so use the time now to research where and how you would like to live. If you are staying put, then the excitement might come to you in the form of relatives or unusual visitors who are looking for a place to spend a certain amount of time to gain experience or simply break from their own life for a while. It all depends on your personal situation but karma and drama are sure to knock on your door over the next seven months.
AQUARIUS: Your thinking is about to go through a revolution that will change your perceptions and help you to communicate in completely different ways. Ideas that you have regarded as normal will suddenly fall by the wayside to be replaced by a whole new philosophical outlook. This in turn will change the way you relate to a brother, sister, neighbour or to view your environment in a totally different light. Suddenly, you will find that all the usual places you go to or the people you interact with will look tired and dull. This leads to either leaving altogether or to implement changes that can make a difference to your street, town or city. You may find that you support or break away from causes that affect your locale and truly make a difference. Vive the revolution!
PISCES: Financially, a stroke of luck or a brilliant idea or course of action will free you up to earn money in the way you would truly like over the next seven months. It begins in June and finishes in January 2011, and this rollercoaster ride, while bringing extremes, will help you clear the hurdles that other people constantly place in your path as a means of testing the correctness of the direction you are now heading in. As long as you have considered all angles of your fiscal life and have put practicalities first, there is no reason to avoid risks that can lead to an unusual form of stability that is liberating – none of this 9-5 nonsense for you! Where there are debts there will be a way to earn or make money to overcome them. This is a year when 11th hour saviours appear at the last moment to lift you up and out of danger.

April 2010
PLANET REPORT: With Mercury gearing up to turn retrograde on the 18th, the beginning of April is a window in time to clear up outstanding matters in practical affairs, which will be prone to delays, frustrations and mix-ups until May 12th. In Taurus and moving alongside Venus, which is also in its own sign until April 25th, material matters that affect our general sense of security are where our energies should be concentrated. People and organisations will be slow to respond to communications so if you require a speedy response, have red tape to cut through or seek a settlement or a claim then it is best to attend to matters well before the 18th. Also be prepared to look again at details. After that time, it is better to wait until Mercury turns direct again on May 12th unless circumstances or opportunity dictate otherwise. The Full Moon in Scorpio on the 29th imposes its emotional weight on intellectual concerns making it difficult to separate thought from the emotional investment in areas where security and stability are important. Frustrations may also arise from Mars’ current extended stay in Leo when the Full Moon simultaneously affects matters where pride and ego have been most evident since mid-December. Mars is a little like the guest who won’t leave at the moment! Feelings can run high by month’s end as a result and though it may be difficult to contain the hidden attitudes that will surface, it would be a good idea to work through issues in advance knowing that the slightest spark could set off a firestorm if things have been left hanging. Whatever does happen now will be a final clearing of the air before major planetary changes occur from June. Saturn returns to Virgo on the 8th where it will remain until July 22nd. This means that between April and May we may see a re-run of issues that have affected the world markets and our general equilibrium when Saturn opposes Uranus in the second to last of five hits that have occurred over October 2008, February and September 2009. The last will occur after Uranus moves into Aries in July 2010 when a whole new cosmic era will have begun and life moves along very quickly. This makes the next four months a time of on-going uncertainty and highlights the need to take a continuing wait and see approach but there could also be golden opportunities that will disappear once the planetary energy starts moving again. Saturn will try to impose rules and regulations that no longer hold substance while Uranus nearly always means that we won’t know which way the cards will fall when life eventually settles into a somewhat predictable pattern. Surprising twists and turns make planning hard but we should avoid paralysis by analysis.
ARIES: On the threshold of a new 12-month cycle when Jupiter enters your sign on June 6th, April is the month to sort out the books and balance the ledger. With Mercury orbiting in an apparent backward direction from the 18th in your financial sector, it would be nice to start your personal year with a clean slate. You may find that something like searching for a receipt or invoice spurs on a massive filing fit or perhaps circumstances require that you make payment arrangements for outstanding bills. Whichever way, it’s a time of settling and sorting finances, possessions and material matters. At work or in investments, the issue of earnings is also important and only you can know whether to pursue this particular avenue. If you do decide ask for raise but things look uncertain, then it could pay to wait until after May 12th when the energy is less stressed. Weigh up the pros and cons in a very detailed manner to arrive at an answer. By the 29th, you may find that matters happen in a natural sequence of events. Your annual New Moon occurs on the 15th – there are clues everywhere that point to the changes that will take place in the second half of 2010.
TAURUS: There is a lot of cosmic action taking place in your sign as you approach your birthday month. Venus, your ruler, is on your side until the 25th and this puts you in the driver’s seat as delays and mix-ups occur, or details and information start to unravel when Mercury does an about turn on the 18th in your sign. Entering into a period of personal review, you have plenty of support around you and you may find that a supportive admirer is the cornerstone of your world as he or she acts as a guide or is there for you when you need them. By month’s end, be particularly careful of hidden landmines as the Full Moon approaches on the 29th. The stakes might be quite high then and there’s a possibility that the emotional content of your hard drive causes the intellectual content to crash. Becoming deadlocked with someone or something is the worst case scenario; however, if you are aware that things could build to a possible breaking point then deal with as much as you can before feelings take over. Better to arrive at a compromise than not arrive at all.
GEMINI: Your ruler Mercury turns to retro motion on the 18th. This always creates instability and insecurity as suddenly the solid stuff that makes up your life turns to jelly. These periods are useful as a means to review your affairs and rethink areas that may not be as promising as they once appeared. Make adjustments as information comes to hand. You may also find that during this particular period you disappear behind the scenes either through choice to think about things or through circumstances dictating that you attend to people or matters that occur on a private level. You may have increased dealings with large institutions. Saturn moves back into Virgo on the 8th so those of you born in the last few days of this sign will once again feel the squeeze of matters that are on the cusp of being resolved, however, this is the last lap of a two-year stint and by July you will be home and hosed.
CANCER: In June, Jupiter, the planet of expansion reaches the pinnacle of your solar chart and heralds a new 12-year cycle in your area of career, life direction, parental concerns and your public image and reputation. By reflex, your home and family life will also form part of this picture. With a New Moon in Aries occurring in your area of life direction on the 15th, if you are observant you will see early clues of how this energy might manifest in the latter part of the year. It could be time to start tentatively thinking about new career initiatives, perhaps by updating your CV or looking into courses that can lead to amazing lifestyle or career changes in the second half of 2010 and into 2011. Mercury will be retrograde in your sphere of friends, associates and general hopes and wishes from April 18th until May 12th and with the Full Moon of the 29th challenging all your ideas about friends and friendships you may need to wait until May before you can focus clearly on the big picture. Distractions could keep you busy in the meantime. Keep faith in those, this month is a temporary glitch that gives you a window in time to review everything from top to bottom.
LEO: Yes, Mars is still in your sign but at least everything is now on the straight and narrow and your identity has at last started to gel with your immediate environment or circumstances. After the Full Moon of the 29th, the battles you are fighting will begin to lose their fire and you will burn less of your energy in non-essentials than you have been. We are in the last throes of an old cycle that is giving way to an amazing new cycle in June and beyond. And even though Mercury retrograde will throw a spanner in the works until May 12th by bringing delays or setbacks, when it comes to career, lifestyle or parental issues, you need to adopt a forward-looking approach and know that the pot holes you encounter will soon be in your rear vision mirror. Look into courses or places that you have either longed for in the past or that can directly enhance your knowledge or experience in your current position as the realms of education, travel, publishing and philosophies will become increasingly important to you.
VIRGO: Saturn re-entered your sign on April 8th resurrecting issues with health, your emotional and physical well-being, as well as the way you support or get support from your immediate environment. You will be used to these issues by now and it’s simply a matter of clearing up the residue of what has been taking place. The biggest question is what have you learned about yourself and others? Virgins born in the last days of Virgo will be most influenced by this placement but rest assured that by July this particular episode will be over once and for all – it has been a hard two-year stint! Your ruler Mercury also turns retrograde on the 18th in your area of travel, education, publishing and philosophical beliefs. It could be that you will look into ways of solidifying your life knowledge so that you can package your talents into one parcel. You might also consider looking outside your normal territory both physically and intellectually. The coming months will place a heavy emphasis on your finances so now is the time to think ahead.
LIBRA: Saturn swings out of your sign temporarily moving into the area of your chart that takes you to a place where secrets or burdens weigh heavy. You have nearly got to grips with what these private issues mean and where they will lead and by July 22nd you will be free – at last - from their weight. In the coming months, the important relationships in your life will become increasingly important as you free yourself from the shackles of convention. In the meantime, April is the month to take care of finances and business matters, especially those that involve other people or government sectors. Read the fine print, set up a payment system or simply avoid taking on more than you can handle. Change will be swift once it starts to happen from June onward so position yourself and get ready to fasten your seatbelt!
SCORPIO: All signs point to your annual Full Moon on the 29th! With Mercury retrograde in opposite sign Taurus from the 18th and the Full Moon highlighting all communications that are either in progress or about to begin, this is the month to work hard on the small details, pay special attention to the fine print in agreements, and modify how you express your feelings. Negotiations could stall due to an unwillingness to give ground but this can be overcome by finding the middle ground. If you agree to disagree then it might be best to wait until this phase is over (May 12th) before trying again. Look back six months ago for clues on what might transpire now. So much is taking place behind the scenes that will become to the fore in the coming months so keep sight of the big picture. Watch your health and well-being first and foremost.
SAGITTARIUS: May will be a month full of amazing opportunities that lead to bigger and better propositions in the second half of 2010 and into 2011. This means it makes sense to turn April into the month where you clear the decks so that you are in a position to make the most of what turns up later. Health and work are where your energies will get dragged down by delays and setbacks but as long as you are practical yet flexible, you will get through this phase which lasts until May 12th. Your ruler Jupiter will soon be in a much more playful position where you can get out and about, or even start to think about the realm of children and their achievements and activities. Sports and creative pursuits may also be high on your agenda. Look for clues around the New Moon of the 15th, which will gives you an exciting preview of what can develop in your life in the next year or so.
CAPRICORN: Like Cancer, Libra and Aries, the lunar energy this month focuses upon the changes that are about to land on your doorstep – two more months and you will find yourself in a new time and place altogether with the current hassles a thing of the past. On the 8th, your ruler Saturn moves back into your zone of people and places at a distance as well as publishing or philosophical matters that have weighed heavily on your mind and those of you born at the end of your sign will need to sew up the remaining threads of an era that has spanned two years. It’s time to ask how you can put what you have learned during this time to use on a career or public relations level. The New Moon of the 15th throws light on domestic issues that are about to change in a spectacular fashion.
AQUARIUS: May will be a month of astounding financial developments that will lead to a whole new ballgame in the second half of 2010. First we have to navigate Mercury’s retrograde passage from April 18th until May 12th and Saturn’s opposition to Uranus, which occurs on the 27th. Polar opposites, old structures butt up against a changing landscape that will take hold in June and beyond. We will all be amazed at how quickly life can change either through a single event or a series of events that are occurring in the background now. Your home zone will be one place where you will need to focus upon the needs and wants of family, flatmates or a parent. Stick to practical solutions and plans rather than try to bring in new angles. Patience is the name of the game.
PISCES: The life or persona you have carved for yourself over the past year will take a huge leap in May when a twist of fate thrusts you forward into a new era that will take hold in June. In the meantime, late-born Fish have one last chapter of an on-going relationship issue to contend with. By July this episode will be put to rest and you can finally move on. Around the middle of May, you may feel as if your newly formed wings have been clipped so prepare for this pulling in of energy by keeping your expectations low knowing that bigger things are on the horizon later in the year. Financially, things are going to change dramatically and you need to focus on how to make the most of opportunities while reducing risk.
ARIES: On the threshold of a new 12-month cycle when Jupiter enters your sign on June 6th, April is the month to sort out the books and balance the ledger. With Mercury orbiting in an apparent backward direction from the 18th in your financial sector, it would be nice to start your personal year with a clean slate.

First we have to navigate Mercury’s retrograde passage from April 18th until May 12th and Saturn’s opposition to Uranus, which occurs on the 27th. Polar opposites, old structures butt up against a changing landscape that will take hold in June and beyond. We will all be amazed at how quickly life can change either through a single event or a series of events that are occurring in the background now. Your home zone will be one place where you will need to focus upon the needs and wants of family, flatmates or a parent. Stick to practical solutions and plans rather than try to bring in new angles. Patience is the name of the game.
PISCES: The life or persona you have carved for yourself over the past year will take a huge leap in May when a twist of fate thrusts you forward into a new era that will take hold in June. In the meantime, late-born Fish have one last chapter of an on-going relationship issue to contend with. By July this episode will be put to rest and you can finally move on. Around the middle of May, you may feel as if your newly formed wings have been clipped so prepare for this pulling in of energy by keeping your expectations low knowing that bigger things are on the horizon later in the year. Financially, things are going to change dramatically and you need to focus on how to make the most of opportunities while reducing risk.
