New Year Challenges

Tidying up details of my recent past. Setting off in a major new direction, with my teachers and spiritual guides beside me. Pluto in my second house of personal values to stay for awhile, probably bringing me to the close of my time here on the planet, at end. Less is more. Refinement, being clear about what and who I am. I travel light. I am learning the joy of living from the heart, and not from material circumstances. To be in the world, but not of it.

Jupiter in my fourth house of home and family, a place of constant change and revolutionary ideas, as Uranus and Aquarius are always interwoven in my chart. Feeds my creative work. Brings freedom to ideas and self-expression. I am becoming more unconventional, more courageous, more willing to break with the past.

Uranus comes into a seven year cycle this year in my house of romance, so there will be experimentation, new relationships, a rising tide of involvements with those not of my background and culture meant to open new windows into my soul, growth and healing. This is dangerous ground for me, so I keep my daily affirmations close and draw upon the wisdom I have gained so far from Pluto's tour of my second house of self-worth, personal values.

And finally, Saturn, has taken up residence for two and a half years in my house of friends and deepest aspirations. I am being thrust into a heavy period of rubbing up against those souls with whom I share this life, by cosmic design, and those long cherished dreams of mine. It is a beautiful time for me, but one not without pain and sorrow, for we do not always get what we want when we want it, and there is the karmic thread that sometimes violently jerks at our emotions and physical desires. As great as my blessings are, so, too, my sorrows run deep. Thrusting upward, I reach higher than ever before, determined more than ever to manifest my destiny and accomplish my life's purpose. Nothing's going to change my world. I am resolute.
