This is
the year that you have been waiting for as your
key planet, Jupiter, makes its once-every-twelve-years
return to your sun sign, bestowing grace and
opportunity onto your life.
As the Archer, you aim your arrows of intent
high; your targets are often far in the distance.
Now you can see even further, and your power is
even stronger. Jupiter's influence works like a
magnifying lens by making your life even bigger.
But you like grandiosity, so this will feel
quite comfortable, even familiar. There are
other planetary influences this year, but jovial
Jupiter in your sign -- from Nov. 23, 2006,
until Dec. 18, 2007 -- will likely be the most
obvious and should provide a fortunate
underpinning for a very successful year. Jupiter
was last in your sign in 1995, which may have
been the beginning of the opportunity cycle that
is currently coming to a close.
You see good news now everywhere
you turn, yet this will also require you to make
a number of long-term decisions.
Although
this may be a truly wonderful time, there are
potential pitfalls that demand your attention.
First, because Jupiter can make anything appear
better, be careful about accepting an
opportunity before you really check it out.
Whether it's a fantastic job offer or an
exciting new romance, the joy of Jupiter will
eventually pass, perhaps leaving you with less
than what you imagined. Second, because Jupiter
encourages you to overextend yourself, be
cautious about making a commitment that you
cannot keep. Third, because Jupiter widens your
perspective, you can gloss over important
details. Remember that sloppy work and hasty
thinking will not be rewarded, so use extra
diligence.
The slow wave of the Jupiter tide recedes from
April 5 until Aug. 6. Shore up your plans and
conserve your energy during this retrograde
period. Jupiter dynamically squares erratic
Uranus three times -- on Jan. 22, May 10, and
Oct. 9 -- creating an exhilarating yet
destabilizing sequence of interrelated events.
With Uranus in your 4th House of Home and Family,
unexpected changes, a physical move, or even
the purchase of a new home is not out of the
question. Meanwhile, serious Saturn
harmoniously trines Jupiter on March 16 and May
5, balancing the melodramatic Uranus scenario
with clear thinking and patience. Still, you may
feel dissonance between the commitments you
willingly make and the freedom you wish you
didn't have to sacrifice.
An outgoing
opposition that began last summer between Saturn
the taskmaster in your 9th House of Higher
Education and Neptune the Dreamer in your 3rd
House of Communication can temporarily take the
wind out of your sails around Feb. 28 and June
25. This may be a crisis of confidence, making
you wonder if you really have what it takes to
reach your professional goals. Avoid critical
decisions around these times, unless they
involve going back to school or taking courses
that can positively impact your career. A life-changing
conjunction between "more is better" Jupiter and
evolutionary Pluto on December 11 places you on
the threshold of a new chapter of your life. Get
ready for an incredible ride as you aim your
next volley of arrows twelve years into the
future.
