Aries (21st Mar - 20th Apr)

Your forecast for February 2012

For the video go here 

The tempo is definitely beginning to get more dynamic...  You can expect this month to steadily increase in terms of expectancy, anticipation and motivation, as well as the potential for frustration and impatience.  Uranus is picking up speed, and as it gets faster so your capacity to sit on the fence becomes narrower and narrower until it finally disappears and you‘re forced into making tough choices.  Alternatively, this month is a great time for initiation of idea - not necessarily action or development, but for the initial dream, vision and idea.  If you take a few chances that aren't completely stupid, you'll probably find an element of fortune.  Alternatively, if you choose to ignore the windows of opportunity that seem to be floating across you, you won't lose anything except the chance to better yourself, a chance that comes quite rarely, so really - make the most of innovative or unusual sudden developments that occur.  To add to the mix, you'll find that many events seem to just smooth their way naturally into your life, especially from the 8th February onwards as Venus moves into your sign.  Venus isn't normally that comfortable in Aries, but this time round it's not going to give you grief unless you're one of those stick in the mud types who need a nuclear explosion to get them moving.  There may well be a degree of unusual energy around on or about the 9th-10th February, as Venus and Uranus come together, and chances taken then stand a statistically better chance than average of working your way, especially if you're born in March.

Has to be said, you're heading into one of the fastest years of your entire life.  2012 will be a hectic year for many of you, with considerable opportunity for breaking free and starting again.  Uranus will spend the entire year with you, its second of seven, so expect the unexpected.  In general it can be said that the year gets progressively better, but this will only become clear once you're into August onwards.  Some of you, particularly those born towards the end of your sign, are likely to find the first nine months of the year a bit of a drudge, whilst others, particularly those born towards the end of March, may have to deal with a form of opposition that can't be avoided, requiring fortitude and perseverance.  Many of you, primarily those born before the 6th April, will experience the time from the start of June onwards as becoming slowly but gradually more stable and consistent.  The main theme, however, continues to be the developing urge for more freedom, independence and autonomy in your life, whilst at the same time maintaining and sustaining those friendships and relationships that are supporting and encouraging you during this time of change.  If you stick your head in the sand and refuse to acknowledge the need for change, you'll find that sudden, unpredictable and disruptive events will intrude on your life in ways that you can't anticipate, likely to pull the rug from underneath your feet.  Alternatively, if you're willing to flow with the go and surf the waves of change as they come in, you'll find an energy pattern of stimulation, originality and novelty becoming more and more the norm...  the choice is yours

 

PLUTO is directly challenging those of you born between the 27th and the 30th of March to eliminate the old, transform the residue, and rebirth into the new in a way that is permanent.  No room for compromise or half measures.

NEPTUNE is only going to affect those of you born at the very end of your sign, and even then only for a short time at the beginning of the year.  In 2012 for the vast majority of you there's no illusion, uncertainly or fog - you're grounded.

URANUS is directly challenging those of you born between March 25th - 28th to revolutionise your lives, to start again and incorporate more personal freedom than ever before - either that or stay the same way as you are now for the very long term.

SATURN is opposing the Sun of those born on or after the 13th April until at least May and in some cases until the end of September.  These people should cut their losses and consolidate their gains during 2012, going for solidity more than growth.

JUPITER will bring a frisson of excitement and pleasantries from the second week of June to the end of September, especially to those born before April 7th.

MARS won't touch you directly in 2012

MERCURY visits from the 2nd-23rd March, and 16th April - 9th May
