Your own planet, serious Saturn, will spend the first half of the year influencing you with regard to relationships, Capricorn, and the second urging you to get up close and personal with someone you`ve just recently learned to trust. But during the whole of 2005, you`ll be just as concerned as ever with your career. The good news is that you`ll be amply rewarded for your efforts in all departments, and the kudos will start pouring in as soon as the 9th of January.
For the rest of winter, you`ll focus on your personality and appearance. You may be in the mood to start a diet or quit a bad habit during January. In February, you`ll want to tend to money matters — which may be a bit tricky to navigate. Keep an open mind, and don`t hesitate to explore unconventional possibilities. The full Moon of March 25th will bring attention to a family situation — one you`ve been worried about for some time. Let go and let your emotions show. The solar eclipse in April will help to bring closure to the matter.
For the rest of spring, you`ll be intent on getting closer to someone you`ve only been thinking of casually for some time now. It`s time to put intimacy on the front burner. Whether it`s emotional, physical or intellectual doesn`t matter. Bare your soul with confidence. In particular, the full Moon of June 22nd will arrive just in time to help you be brave and bold, personally speaking. Take advantage of it.
The urge to get close won`t be going anywhere soon, either. All during summer, you`ll be focused on a certain person — but fortunately, they`ll be just as focused on you! This could mean — once again — that you`re due to either end a relationship or take a casual encounter to a whole new level. Just don`t let your work slide. You have your reputation to think of.
A voice from the past could arrive early in fall. Before you allow them back into your life, be sure you`re ready for a committed relationship — because that`s exactly what they`ll have in mind. During October, two eclipses will help you to turn toward career matters and think less about personal things. By the time the holidays roll around, you`ll be quite ready to relax — and you`ll certainly have earned it. Some new family members may be along to help you enjoy your time together — but don`t forget about that mistletoe!
Saturn, your ruling planet, is telling you to brush up on your interpersonal skills this year, but you needn`t worry — you`ll get better without trying too hard. Communication skills will be vital in all areas of work throughout the year. Your first lesson will come early (around January 9th), when you`ll need to take praise well. You`ll start to see the fruits of last year`s efforts pay off, and you`ll need to keep from getting a swollen ego. Pay attention to budget issues in February and make sure you`ve wrapped up any office squabbles by the time of the full Moon on March 25th.
Focus on the people you work closest with throughout the spring. It might be your boss, your peers or particular customers — whoever it is, make sure to devote your attention to their needs. A time will come, probably around the end of June, when you`ll need to take a stand for something you believe in that might run counter to workplace culture. Don`t worry: You`ll have Saturn on your side.
As fall arrives, start to build out from those close relationships until you`ve got a strong network centered on you. It could be that you find a golden opportunity to cement your reputation as a can-do worker — seize it and the rest of the year (and maybe the next several years) will go smoothly. You might have the chance to work on a side project that could become quite lucrative over time.
