Sun Opposite Uranus.
January 1, 2009 (January 1, 2009 to January 1, 2009)
CURB YOUR RESTLESSNESS AND IMPATIENCE: It’s a bit of a puzzling time because you can’t seem to concentrate on any one thing. The grass seems always greener on the other side!
Q: Do I have to go along with people who insist on doing everything by the book?
A: For today, yes. Who knows whether they’re being pedantic or if their actions are appropriate but because you’re feeling so impatient, it is not a good day to raise objections.
Q: Are my efforts in a group situation having any affect?
A: You can make it so you feel more confident about your efforts. Have you talents that are relevant to other people’s interests and needs? The more important a role you play, the more vital a contribution you will be making.

Sun Opposite Midheaven.
January 1, 2009 (January 1, 2009 to January 4, 2009)
UP AGAINST AUTHORITY: You need to feel absolutely sure of yourself before you disagree with someone who holds a superior position.
Q: Is there anything about myself I should watch out for today?
A: Your outlook could be overly enthusiastic or you are too confident and this will make you slightly careless.
Q: Should I be cautious in my working relationships?
A: Yes. Be sure to keep those you work with abreast of your plans. A misunderstanding could develop if you act without getting the approval of your colleagues.

Sun Square Ascendant.
January 1, 2009 (January 1, 2009 to January 2, 2009)
LOCKING HORNS WITH A LOVED ONE: You and a partner or close friends could be at odds with one another. Unconventional moves aren’t favoured.
Q: Why is it that no matter what I do I feel it is wrong?
A: The problem at this time is your mind will be on personal and relationship concerns when it should be on business or vice-versa!
Q: How can I get a close relationship back on an even keel?
A: When people ask for your opinion, be frank in your response. Relationships cannot develop healthily if one partner is sacrificing their own needs and wishes while trying too hard to please the other.

Moon Square Mercury.
January 1, 2009 (January 1, 2009 to January 1, 2009)
RESOLVING DIFFICULT PROBLEMS: If you can’t deal with a problem yourself, experts will be only too pleased to put you straight on puzzling points.
Q: How do I know I am making the right decisions?
A: You need to analyse the facts and make a conscious effort not to allow strong emotions to govern you.
Q: Is there anything I should be watching for now?
A: You could, quite by chance, discover information that is useful to you in some way.

Moon Conjunct Neptune.
January 1, 2009 (January 1, 2009 to January 1, 2009)
CONNECTION TO OTHERS: You feel an almost spiritual link with some of the people who are around you today.
Q: I feel as if I can read some people’s minds. Am I being foolish?
A: No. There is a strong spiritual link in your relationships at this time.
Q: Why am I starting to feel more settled and secure?
A: Because there is a strong sense of understanding and empathy within your closest relationships.

Mercury Square Neptune.
January 1, 2009 (January 1, 2009 to January 4, 2009)
LOW SELF-ESTEEM: You may not feel well equipped to cope with the things life throws at you now. You need to find a way to feel more in control.
Q: It feels like I got out the wrong side of the bed this morning. How can I improve my mood?
A: You might express your creative talents through writing, music, poetry or art.
Q: Even when I achieve something good I still don’t feel proud of the fact. Why?
A: Because you feel guilty about praising yourself. Before going on to anything new reward yourself for a job well done. You need to be glad of your achievements.

Mercury Quincunx Pluto.
January 1, 2009 (January 1, 2009 to January 2, 2009)
UNSETTLING EXPERIENCES: There may be some sort of clash with officialdom. This might involve anything from an encounter with a traffic warden to someone really trying to push their views on you.
Q: Even when I’m doing it I know I’m being unfair or unjust. Why?
A: You know your reactions are a little over the top but you can’t seem to avoid the tendency to act on impulse now.
Q: I can’t get something out of my mind. Where will I find the answers?
A: You might find it hard not to visit a particular person when there is something you need to know and can only find out from them.

Venus Sextile Saturn.
January 1, 2009 (January 1, 2009 to January 4, 2009)

Q: Will I regret acting on an impulse?
A: Possibly. Give yourself thinking time to weigh up the pros and cons before making any firm decisions or taking action.
Q: How do I deal with awkward people?
A: If someone upsets you, say what you are feeling. Other people need to know that your views and feelings are no less important than theirs.

Mars Square Saturn.
January 1, 2009 (January 1, 2009 to January 10, 2009)
DEALING WITH AUTHORATIVE FIGURES: You must keep your wits about you as someone in authority is watching your every move.
Q: What can I do to overcome the uncertainty I feel at the moment?
A: Instead of turning conversations into griping sessions, encourage others to see the positive in current plans and situations. This will increase your positivity too. Have faith in the future and believe that any changes to come will be for the best.
Q: A friend I see a lot of is always looking on the dark side. Is it time to end this friendship?
A: Yes if their mood is starting to affect you. If they aren’t a fun person to be around and their behaviour is more detrimental than constructive maybe it is time to go your separate ways.

Mars Conjunct Uranus.
January 1, 2009 (January 1, 2009 to January 3, 2009)
UNDER PRESSURE: This seems to be a time of some frustration. It isn’t easy to bring a job to a satisfactory conclusion.
Q: Life has been pretty unsettled lately and a loved-one is talking about making more changes. Do I go along with them?
A: No. Avoid making any more alterations to your life until you have begun to recover from recent changes.
Q: Why do I get the feeling I am going to fail?
A: At the moment you seem to be expecting the worst and you’re worrying too much about money, health and relationships. Because you can’t relax you have trouble sleeping at night. Avoid if you can, starting anything new and try to take a more positive approach to life.

Jupiter Square Saturn.
January 1, 2009 (January 1, 2009 to January 17, 2009)
REPEATED SETBACKS: An older person seems critical and their fault-finding ways are starting to depress you.
Q: How might I ensure people don’t misunderstand me?
A: Although you have some strong views you need to take care that you don’t come across to others as being over critical of them.
Q: Is there any area in my life that may be disappointing?
A: A desire to progress with some form of further educational exercise or a job-training program could be hampered by a series of distractions.

Saturn Quincunx Moon.
January 1, 2009 (January 1, 2009 to January 21, 2009)
BEING PERSISTENT: You could be able to advance your career aims by discussing future plans with your boss or others in positions of power.
Q: Why are there some people I want to avoid?
A: You prefer to be on your own, rather than with people who are argumentative and contrary.
Q: What is my main concern when planning ahead?
A: You will be making firm plans for the future and your main aim is to make the years ahead more secure. You’re desperate for action but this could make you overly restless and easily frustrated.

Q: Who might interfere in my close relationships?
A: Your in-laws or another elderly relative will be quick to point out the strain that any changes you are now thinking about, will put on your closest relationships.
Q: Is there anything important I should be doing now?
A: This should be a good time to get down to those financial or business tasks which you've spent a lot of time trying to forget about previously. No doubt you will be able to think of a hundred-and-one reasons why you shouldn't attend to these. But remember that the sooner they are dealt with, the sooner you can turn your attention towards more relaxing pastimes.

Uranus Conjunct Mars.
January 1, 2009 (January 1, 2009 to March 2, 2009)

Q: Why do I feel so caged-in every now and again?
A: Over the months ahead there may be some restlessness when you will rebel against anyone or anything that makes you feel restricted.

A: You should value your intuition as you will be intensely aware of your gut-feelings at the moment.

Q: A friend is negative to almost anything I suggest. What can I do?

Q: How do I sort out my feelings?
A: Some privacy will help you to come to terms with your emotions. All you need is a few minutes or better still a few hours to yourself.

A: There is interest in supernatural or mystical subjects.

A: Perhaps they feel you aren’t the same person on the inside as you are on the outside. It is up to you to prove you are what you seem! Be direct and honest with others.
Q: What inspires me today?
A: There is interest in supernatural or mystical subjects.

A: You are not anyone else’s slave or puppet and you need to prove to others you can think for yourself.
Q: What is it that is causing me to react so impulsively?
A: An intense emotional eruption might cause you to react to a situation more speedily than you would have done if you’d carefully thought it through.

Q: A friend I see a lot of is always looking on the dark side. Is it time to end this friendship?
A: Yes if their mood is starting to affect you. If they aren’t a fun person to be around and their behaviour is more detrimental than constructive maybe it is time to go your separate ways.
