Love

A real rock n’ roll year for your sign during which you’ll examine how you give and receive love. For some, splits are inevitable and cracks may worsen. For others, it’s Romeo and Juliet time. What unites all Aries, however, is that Saturn is preparing you for the arrival of Uranus in your sign at the end of May, bringing with it instant and unexpected change, and even the odd 180 degree turnaround. You might begin the year with greater feelings of self-doubt than usual, or be struck with what seems like an inability to express what you are thinking and feeling. Saturn can inhibit the flow of such things, but it’s up to you to find a balance between asserting your individuality in a way that won’t cause you more problems, and not being held back at the same time. It’s certainly a bit of a challenge, and if you are typical of your sign you’ll rise to it, and I’m afraid that partners may have to shape up or ship out if they aren’t on board. You do have a habit of being a bit demanding and because you may be more fired up than usual this year, you may need to rein in this tendency. For the single among you love could arrive like a bolt from the blue, and the romance of it all will certainly appeal to the thrill-seeker in you. You may also find that you are turning back the clock by revisiting old thoughts, and people, so there is something familiar in all of this too. Only once things begin to settle down will you start to appreciate the next twelve months as a taste of things to come.

Work

Radical change is on the cards for you and, to put it bluntly, if you attempt to resist you may find yourself left behind. You need to banish bouts of self-doubt for starters if they creep in to your working scenarios, and not let your boss or authority figure erode your confidence. Rolling over is not an option. All of this may build to make you feel that you no longer have the free rein that you used to, but any such feeling will be turned on its head come July with the arrival of Uranus in your sign. This planet’s vibrant energy puts you in a position to break free from old limitations. Opportunities will roll your way this year, and it’s how you go after opportunity that counts. I am talking about making your mark, and in order to do this you must learn how to work harmoniously with other people. Not as straightforward as it sounds when the chips are down. This formula will also put a more positive slant on your personal finances. Saturn returns to Virgo this year, allowing you to put in to place to be able to check out any lessons learned.

Life

Jupiter, planet of luck and expansion, brings with it a need to clear the decks in 2010, pretty much right from the word go. On the back of this will come an evaluation of the last eleven years, so cast your mind back to what has happened in your life during this time. What have you accomplished and what chapters have closed in your life? What it is that you want to bring into your life during the next cycle? This planet expands your mental horizons as well as helping you to cut away dead wood, so you might be forced to face up to issues you have been burying. Flying solo isn’t the best way to move forward either and, as in the other areas of your life, this depends on you being cooperative and working in unison with others, so listen well to what people are saying to you. In fact some of you may look to someone for guidance, or be called upon to mentor or steer others this year. In all of this comes laying foundations and you’ll feel everything coming together ready for 2011. There’s no use sitting around and expecting things to drop into your lap, or chancing things to luck. Action is required for this to happen and, remember, this must be done hand in hand with others, and perhaps this is the lesson you must learn.
