Your Personal Horoscope 2013: Month-by-month forecasts for every sign

Mars will be conjunct to Uranus towards the end of the month, from the 27th to the 30th (although you will be feeling the effects before this). Avoid daredevil kinds of stunts and watch the temper. Aries children (who have been rebellious for a few years now) are more rebellious than usual. Avoid rush and impatience now, although it will be difficult – you are energetic and raring to go. Be more mindful on the physical plane.

Since the Sun went into your sign on March 20, life has been good. You are having your way. You are strong. (Whatever your age or stage in life, you have more energy than usual.) The physical appearance shines. The libido roars. You do the work of ten people and in half the time. Love and financial opportunities are seeking you out. This has been the case since March 22 and will continue until the 15th of this month. No need to search far and wide for love – you can’t avoid it! There’s no need to indulge in all the stratagems that most people employ, you just need to show up. Just go about your daily routine. Love seems happy this month, and especially from the 5th to the 9th as Venus travels with Mars, your personal planet. For singles this shows an important love meeting. For the already attached it indicates a more romantic period with the beloved.

Health and energy are still very good. I would say they are at the maximum for the year ahead. So you have all the fire power to achieve whatever you want to achieve. Until the 14th enhance the health through foot massage. Spiritual techniques are very powerful during this period too. After the 14th you respond very well to scalp and face massage. Vigorous physical exercise (which you seem to be into anyway) also enhances the health. The main danger healthwise (as it was last month) is from accident or injury due to haste or impatience. When we rush we lose our awareness and thus become more vulnerable to these things.

The Sun is in Aries and the planetary momentum is overwhelmingly forward: 90 per cent of the planets are moving forward this month. Thus you are in the best ‘starting energy’ of your year. This is another good period to launch those new products or projects into the world. I especially like the 10th to the 19th – the Sun and Mars are in Aries and the Moon is waxing.

On the 19th the Sun enters your money house and you begin a yearly financial peak. Mars will enter this house a day later on the 20th. So you are in a period of peak earnings. You are focused here and we tend to get what we focus on. Now is the time to build up the bank balance and investment portfolio. There is luck in speculations, but also other lucky breaks in your financial life as well. Your spouse, partner or current love (and your social circle in general) is supportive of your financial goals. You manage to combine business and pleasure this period. You socialize with the people you do business with and do business with friends. After the 20th, your spouse, partner or current love’s finances also improve. There are still many changes going on but this period is a ‘respite’, a financial vacation.

There is a Lunar Eclipse on the 25th. Take things nice and easy during that period. Avoid speculations and be more patient with children and children figures in your life. Family members should also avoid risky kinds of activities.

On March 20 the planets began to shift from the upper to the lower half of your Horoscope. Last month the shift got even stronger. This month 60 per cent and sometimes 70 per cent of the planets are below the horizon of your chart. Your career goals have more or less been attained and now it is time to focus more on the home and family and to get this area of life in order. Career is still very important but you can shift some attention to the home and to your emotional life. There is a need now to find (and function from) your personal point of emotional harmony. When this is found, the career will go well in very natural ways. If you’ve been ignoring the family recently now is the time to start mending fences and restoring harmony.

You are still very much into a yearly financial peak until May 20. Prosperity is happening but there are some bumps along the way. A Solar Eclipse on the 10th occurs in your money house, and this indicates dramatic financial changes. These changes probably needed to be made long ago but now the eclipse forces the issue. The changes seem good in the long term, but in the short term they are not comfortable.

Health and energy are still very good, but it won’t hurt to reduce your schedule during the eclipse period. This Solar Eclipse also affects children or children figures in your life. Often it brings life-changing kinds of events in their lives. They are forced now to redefine their image, their personality and the way they think of themselves. Generally this leads to wardrobe changes – changes in hair style, hair colour and overall presentation.

There is a Lunar Eclipse on the 25th in your 9th house. Though the eclipse is basically benign to you, it won’t hurt to take things easier. Like every Lunar Eclipse the home and family are affected (so it is good that you are focusing more here). Family members can be more temperamental, so more patience is needed. Often there is a need for repairs in the home as hidden flaws come out. Students seem affected strongly by this. There can be changes of school or changes in courses or educational plans. There will be dramatic, life-changing kinds of events with the people at your place of worship or with a religious organization you belong to.

On the whole though, the month ahead looks good. Venus will be travelling with Jupiter towards the end of the month (from the 27th to the 29th); this indicates a nice payday, a nice financial windfall or opportunity. For singles this shows a happy love meeting. For those who are married it indicates more romance with the present partner.

The planets are now at their maximum lowest position in the chart. You are in the ‘midnight hour’ of your year, which is considered a very ‘magical’ hour of the day. The old day is over with and a new day has begun – only it is not yet apparent to the senses. Midnight is not for outer kinds of activities but for the activities of the night: sleep, and the collecting of forces for the new day. This is the time to work on your outer goals by ‘interior’ methods – though dreaming, visualizing and entering into the ‘inner condition’ of what you want or where you want to be. This is the necessary prelude for attaining any goal. You are like a seed germinating in the ground. Mighty things are happening, only they cannot be seen. But when the daytime of your year comes around (in a few months’ time) they will be seen. The seedling will burst from the earth and flower in visible, tangible reality.

Early in the month the focus is on communication and intellectual interests. A good time to catch up on those letters, emails and phone calls you owe, and great for taking courses in subjects that interest you – for expanding your knowledge base and exercising the mind. But after the 21st, the Sun enters Cancer, your 4th house of home and family. Jupiter will enter here on the 27th too. Now is the time for focusing on the family.

This is a month for making psychological kinds of breakthroughs. You will tend to be more nostalgic this period, to reminisce more. Often people from your past come back into the life and jog the memory. You will have a greater interest in history as well; not just your personal history but history in general.

Though career is not that important right now, much career progress is happening. Your career planet, Saturn, is receiving beautiful aspects. There is much success – and perhaps promotion and pay rises – happening, only it will manifest later on. Your career planet is retrograde.

Neptune, your spiritual planet, is also receiving very beautiful aspects. So, for those on the spiritual path there are important breakthroughs happening, revelations from on high. Your intuition is super.

Health needs more watching after the 21st. As always, rest and relax more: avoid burning the candle at both ends. Enhance the health through a right diet and give more attention to the stomach. Women should give more attention to the breasts. Emotional health is very important this month. Avoid depression like the plague. Keep the moods peaceful and constructive.

Love and money are close to home. Family connections play an important role in both. Family seems very supportive these days. A parent figure enters a two-year cycle of prosperity.

Many of the trends we wrote of last month are still very much in effect. So review our discussion of last month.

Last month, on the 21st, the planetary power shifted from the East to the West. This month, on the 18th, Mars, your ruling planet, also shifts to the West. The social, Western sector is now dominant for the next five or six months. Hopefully, you have already made the personal changes that you needed to make. Hopefully, you have already created the conditions that you wanted to create. Now, it is time to live with your creation. If you have created wisely, it is a time to enjoy it. If you have made mistakes, well, now you experience the consequences of the mistakes. It’s not so easy as it was to have your way. Now you have to adapt to situations as best you can and cultivate your social skills. The good graces of others are the most vital thing right now, in finance, love and career.

Health still needs watching until the 23rd. We don’t see major problems here, but this is not your best health period. Energy is not up to its usual standard and thus you are more vulnerable to problems. Enhance the health in the ways mentioned last month. Your health planet Mercury is retrograde until the 21st, so avoid making major changes to the health regime without more research. Diet is important now, but study the matter thoroughly before making changes. Health and vitality will return after the 23rd.

Like last month career is not that important, but in spite of this many wonderful, behind-the-scenes things are happening. On the 8th your career planet starts to move forward, and thus there is more clarity about the career.

The spiritual life is also satisfying and successful. The spiritual faculties – ESP, intuition, etc. – are very much enhanced.

Mars travels with Jupiter from the 18th to the 24th, which is a very happy transit. A foreign trip is happening. Students have success in their studies or in getting into a good school or college. A nice financial windfall or opportunity comes, and people in authority look upon you with favour.

Love is happy this period. Singles are meeting people they can have fun with, rather than making serious commitments. Until the 23rd you seem to ‘leap before you look’ – you are a ‘love at first sight’ kind of person. But after that date you become more cautious (and rightfully so). Venus in Virgo from the 23rd onwards is not one of her favourite positions. She becomes too analytical – and romance is to do with the heart, not the head. You will have to exert more effort in showing love and warmth to others after the 23rd.
