OVERVIEW: It's your year to surge ahead! The road is clear while certain familiar obstacles have disappeared. The only down side of this supreme confidence is that slips and pitfalls seem even more severe. You first notice this around January 21st. Compliant people refuse to cooperate. Everyone has their own crazy ideas, leaving you feeling vulnerable. A change in circumstance gives you some emotional distance, and after February 22nd, you find the will to deal more effectively with your world on both the material and spiritual levels.

The theme of conflicting egos returns a little later, this time in the more manageable context of business or sports. Laugh away the things that once bothered you. Well-being blossoms into true contentment near April 21st. You take great pleasure in pursuing and strengthening personal ties this month. The beauty of private, impossible dreams is that no one can really disprove them. Around May 20th, you wake up from your idyll and swing into a more productive mode. The more others understand your ideas, the more likely they are to argue. It's no skin off your nose. Debate is healthy.

From late June through mid-July, Earth and Water influences are friendly and strong. The Universe is taking care of you. But after the 24th, you may feel more like a victim than a beneficiary. Extremes offend your mild sensibilities. Again, you're at the mercy of people that don't know about your agenda. In the last week of August, self-sufficiency returns with a few hidden strengths that swim to the surface close to the 28th. Pests and bullies, sensing your resurgence, are eager to leave you alone.

After September 24th, the cosmic spotlight returns to highlight your Venusian qualities including love, romance and pleasure. You score easy points and maneuver others without stepping on their toes. If you let your attention wander into faulty assumptions, schemes may backfire toward the end of October. Respect could share equal time with uncertainty. Future privilege is tied to past performance. By mid-November you actually crave boredom. The Stars respond with the gift of contentment, leaving you cheerful but unmotivated amidst the mounting holiday frenzy. Near December 17th, you realize that you haven't been doing your part. Get moving! There's still time to make loved ones happy while pleasing yourself.
