Jupiter expands whatever he touches.  He usually spends about 13 months in each zodiac sign.  His job is to bring joy, adventure, open-mindedness, advanced education, travel, global perspectives, and a sense that we are all one big happy family and not so very different from each other.  Because of his expansive tendencies, he brings "prosperity" and "abundance" to whatever concept he is focused on.  If things are good, he brings an abundance of good.  If things are bad, he brings an abundance of bad.

As 2012 begins, Jupiter is still in Taurus and your tenth house until June 11th when he moves into Gemini and your eleventh house.

In Taurus, Jupiter helps to expand Taurus' love of financial security, materialism, comfort, status, self-worth, and "mine".  Taurus rules over assets, wages, salaries, personal wealth, net worth, and one's sense of self-esteem.  Globally, we will see the economy rebounding in a strong and stable manner.  Like Taurus the Bull, we could also see an increase in stubbornness, caution, and conservatism.  After Aries' fiery power, it is natural to then move into a strong but quiet personal power.  Taurus loves good food, good wine, a comfortable sized savings account, and the ability to relax and enjoy the finer things in life without fear of poverty or competition.  Jupiter helps to boost this type of environment.

For Leo, Jupiter will be in your tenth house of professional goals and aspirations, leadership, civic duty, integrity, public reputation, fame, recognition, and climbing the Ladder of Success.  After the rampant unemployment and economic destruction of the last few years, it will be lucky Leos who get to be some of the first to bounce back and push forward with renewed stamina and enthusiasm in their professional lives.  Taurus gives you a strong, steady, and thoughtful approach to your professional goals, leadership style, and public reputation.  And Jupiter will be bringing good luck, fun, and joy back into your career.

In Gemini, Jupiter brings mixed blessings.  Jupiter and Gemini are opposite sides of the same coin.  Gemini rules local communities, one-on-one communications, daily commutes, elementary school level knowledge, small town thinking, siblings, cousins, and extended family.  Jupiter rules countries, mass media, long-distance travel, universities, global awareness, and foreigners.  Both love freedom, flirting, bonding with others, and having fun.  When left to do as he pleases within Gemini, Jupiter will help everyone to be better communicators.  We will all have a little easier time expanding our horizons while staying close to home.  And we should all be able to get along with our neighbors, relatives, and local community members a bit easier.  Industries involving computers, communications, automobiles, local transportation, community outreach, and/or elementary schools should do better while Jupiter is traveling through Gemini.  When other planets clash with Jupiter during his time in Gemini, he could cause people to become lazy thinkers, more bigoted, and/or scattered and unfocused.

For Leo, Jupiter will be in your eleventh house of friends, teams, clubs, committees, professional associations, networking, and Internet.  He is the planet of good luck and prosperity, so financial activities involving these social networking topics could also do quite well.  Regardless of what industry you work in, Jupiter will do his best to help you enjoy a rich and fulfilling social life.

Saturn creates our personal challenges and "tough love" learning experiences.  He usually spends about two and a half years in each zodiac sign.  His job is to create learning experiences that are often uncomfortable but ultimately quite meaningful.  Saturn rules over karma, cause and effect, ethics, and our sense of civic duty.  Therefore, it is not only important that we learn our life lessons well, but that we also conduct ourselves with honor and integrity while going through these challenges.  If we stay out of trouble, behave ethically, buckle down, and learn our lessons well, then Saturn rewards us with a gift just before he leaves a zodiac sign.  For example, if Saturn were traveling through the area of our charts that deals with professionalism, leadership, and success, then he would teach us some tough lessons about those concepts.  Then, if we learned lessons about professional reputations, taking on leadership roles, etc, and we behaved ourselves while doing so, Saturn would reward us with a job promotion, professional kudos, public recognition, etc.  We would be better at our jobs, better at leading our companies and communities, and/or we would be better at marketing and advertising ourselves.  If on the other hand, we did not learn any lessons about our professional conduct, leadership style, etc, or we were unethical, blamed others for our problems, cheated, lied, etc then Saturn would simply move on to the next zodiac sign and we would have nothing to show for all the drama and trouble that we had just endured.  Saturn gets a bad reputation because many people think he is simply mean for the heck of it.  When in actuality, he is like a "tough love" parent forcing us to grow up and act like a responsible adult.  Might not be very fun, but the rewards are well worth it.

As 2012 begins, Saturn is still in Libra and your third house until October 5th when he moves into Scorpio and your fourth house.

While in Libra, Saturn focuses on our partnerships.  Libra rules over marriage, best friends, business partnerships, and competitors (think yin-yang).  While in this zodiac sign, Saturn forces us all to look at who we choose to partner with, what kind of partnerships we like, and how we behave within our partnerships.  It is not uncommon for marriages to suffer, best friends to "break up", and for business partnerships to dissolve.  Competitors can become vicious, especially if they are pointing out real flaws in our character and not just making stuff up.  Libra rules diplomacy, fairness, justice, and mediation too.  Globally, we could see these topics becoming quite challenging for all countries.  Various government leaders will be challenged to pick carefully which countries they choose to partner with and which they choose to keep as enemies.  They would do well to remember Saturn's focus on karma, integrity, and civic responsibility.

For Leo, this happens in your third house of interpersonal communications (verbal and written words, telecommunications, computers, etc.), commercial activities (buying and selling, negotiations, contracts, agreements, commitments, etc.), and local community (neighbors, local people, siblings, extended family, one's clansmen, etc.).  Local forms of transportation, like subways, city busing, cars, bicycles, skates, etc are also part of this sector.  When Saturn passes through this area of someone's chart, they often experience problems, issues, and challenges concerning neighbors and extended family, local transportation, computers, telecommunications, sales (as both the buyer and the seller), contract negotiations, and the ability to get their point across to others.  You could be accused of thinking in a small-town, narrow-minded way or you could have trouble with others because of their small-town narrow-minded philosophies.  You could be forced to learn to fine-tune your delivery and to make sure that you are backing up your systems and remembering to stay organized.  You could also learn some tough life lessons about doing your homework before making major purchases and/or about how to sell in a tough economy.  Dysfunctional family dynamics could be used to teach you some tough life lessons too.

In Scorpio, Saturn finds himself in friendly territory.  Scorpio rules over things like trust, loyalty, and profits.  While Saturn rules over an area of the zodiac that focuses on civic duty, professionalism, success, and leadership.  Saturn rules over karma and Scorpio rules over trust.  Saturn is very comfortable traveling through Scorpio.  While in Scorpio, Saturn will be testing us, teaching us, challenging us, and/or revealing karma owed concerning the topics of trust and sharing, intimacy, fidelity, spousal and child support, joint assets, joint ventures, investments, stocks, commissions, royalties, tips and gratuities, inheritances, loans, lotteries, taxes, and other forms of profit sharing.  Scorpio also rules over hidden agendas, secret motivations, deep psychological issues, and those times when we want to hide away in our secret cave to lick our wounds and heal from some harsh battle, emotional trauma, etc that we have endured.  Scorpio brings us the life-death-rebirth cycles and the Phoenix Rising phenomena.  Those who have been greedy, selfish, and irresponsible with investments, stocks, and other profit sharing activities could find that karma is not so kind to them.  Globally, we might find that it is time to revamp our financial systems and to make things more fair, honest, and equitable.  Scorpio also rules over romantic commitments, fidelity, and the sharing of intimate secrets.  Saturn will expect us all to conduct ourselves more ethically within our love lives and to not be selfish or dishonest with our lovers.

For Leo, Saturn is now going to focus his "tough love" teaching moments on your real estate, housing matters, roommates, parents, childhood issues, retirement planning, and coming home sector.  Saturn can teach obvious life lessons, like the importance of having a roof over your head and a place to come home to.  You could be taught something about the real estate market, rental contracts, retirement planning, etc.  You could also find Saturn wants to teach you about the importance of parents and/or parental figures in our lives.  You could struggle with remodeling or landscaping projects, deal with annoying roommates, and/or you could be trying to create a retirement nest egg and find that it is more challenging than it should be.  Saturn can also dig deep into your most private thoughts and force you into a deep self-analysis about the most personal elements of your being.  This is a good time for therapy and self-healing.  Regardless of how Saturn decides to challenge you, chances are good that your concepts of security, safety, and sanctuary are probably going to be the main focus.

Uranus is the eccentric genius, rebellious teenager, and social networking guru of the zodiac.  He usually spends about 7 years in each zodiac sign.  He rules over friends, teams, clubs, committees, professional associations, networking, science, interconnectivity, electricity, and the Internet.  He can bring teamwork, friendships, networking, and a sense of belonging to something bigger than ourselves into our lives.  He can also bring stubbornness, eccentricity, rebellion, and perversity.  This is because at his core, he is trying to convince us to be our unique individual selves but also to be a great team player.  Thus, like a teenager, he is trying to find himself while being very susceptible to peer pressure.  Those who master Uranus' teachings often make charming and charismatic leaders.  Uranus also encourages us to think outside the box and brings a certain eclectic brilliance into our lives.  Like the eccentric genius and the rebellious teenager, he brings pleasant surprises and unexpected chaos.  Uranus promotes humanitarian ideals like brotherhood, "all for one and one for all", and "united we stand, divided we fall."  He is not asking us to be sheeple following the crowd mentality with blind faith.  He is asking us to know our unique gifts and to be strong enough in our self-knowledge to be able to work well in a team and to be able to socialize without losing our sense of individuality.

As 2012 begins, Uranus is still in Aries and your ninth house where he will stay for the next few years.

There are zodiac signs where Uranus shines and is emboldened to bring about wonderful brotherly love and incredible scientific advances, like when he was in his own zodiac sign, Aquarius from the middle of 1995 until the early part of 2003.  While there, the everyday use of the Internet took root and blossomed.  Prior to that, he was in Capricorn building the systems of the Internet.  Yes, the Internet has been around for a long time, but it was during the time that the planet in charge of the Internet was traveling through the zodiac sign in charge of the Internet, that the Internet seriously began to grow and expand into the incredible tool that it is today.  

From 2003 until 2010, Uranus was in Pisces.  Here he was somewhat subdued.  Pisces rules over the hidden forces that work behind the scenes.  Things like mental health, secrets, self-destruction, addictions, spiritual mysteries, bureaucracies, and "fogginess" are ruled by Pisces.  Therefore, we now have gambling, porn, and other self-destructive activities available online.  We also have government bureaucracies trying to legislate for or against Net Neutrality and spam.  We have all kinds of spiritual, mental health, self-help, and "positive attitude" information readily available as well.  Is it any wonder that people became addicted to the Internet?  On the other hand, Uranus' time in Pisces helped us to befriend people from all over the world that we otherwise would not have gotten to know.  Global brotherhood became much easier to encompass.  Pisces believes in sacrificing for the greater good and Uranus is a huge fan of humanitarianism.  Together, they brought us websites that work to educate and promote helping those less fortunate in other countries.  Uranus within Pisces helped us show our support to protestors in foreign countries and helped us send money and prayers to earthquake, tsunami, flood, and other disaster victims.  Uranus was "foggy" and stifled within Pisces, but not without his charms and brilliance.

Once Uranus moved into Aries, he began to have some fun.  Aries is innovative, entrepreneurial, competitive, and loves being the first one to come up with a new idea.  Uranus is in love with new technology, teamwork, being unique while being part of something bigger than one's self, and a brainstorming genius.  Both are extroverted, social, and stubborn.  Both are clever, fast, and pride themselves on their uniqueness.  Globally, we will probably see the Internet and new technology take off like crazy.  It will be interesting to see how the planet of teamwork and brotherly love affects the world while in the zodiac sign of warriors and "me first!"  Does "me" or "we" prevail?  It seems to me that this is a "we the people" time in history.  Governments, corporations, dictators, and others that would try to control the ignorant masses could find that "we the people" is a stronger and more passionate force to be reckoned with than what is expected.  The peasants might appear to be fat and lazy or uneducated and unorganized, but Uranus within Aries creates a lovely energy for uniting people under a single cause and motivating groups to move in unison.  We will see more of this in the voting booths as well as in the public marches and demonstrations.

For Leo, Uranus will be in your ninth house of long-distance travel, multicultural studies, languages, religions, politics, laws, philosophies, universities, mass media, and global awareness.  Global networking, international teamwork, spontaneous travel, and Internet education could be very helpful and enjoyable for you over the next few years.  Legally, you could come out as a genius or as too stubborn depending on what the other planets are doing at the time.  Professionally and socially, you could really enjoy hosting Uranus in this area of your life because you are encouraged to explore the world, other cultures, religions, philosophies, politics, etc.  You can do it with friends and colleagues, or you can do it via the Internet, but social networking, teamwork, and technology are entering your "global awareness" sector and this could be quite exciting and fun.  Just be careful with legal issues and do your best not to accidentally offend others by coming across as bigoted or ignorant of the ways of the world.  This is also a wonderful time for going back to school to learn something new.  Universities and the Internet can mix to create some great online classes.  If you are looking at learning a new trade, taking marketing classes, etc... you could find that you "get it" a lot faster than normal and that you are able to really enjoy the experience.

Neptune tries to bring emotional well-being, spirituality, and a bit of magic to whatever he touches.  Unfortunately, he also has a tendency to bring self-destruction, bureaucracies, and gullibility too.  He usually spends about 14 years in each zodiac sign.  Neptune rules over mental health, attitudes, intuition, secrets, spiritual mysteries, paranormal activities, charities, bureaucracies, and other hidden forces that work behind the scenes.  If things are good, he brings compassion and a touch of magic.  If things are bad, he brings delusions and fogginess.

As 2012 begins, Neptune is still in Aquarius and your seventh house until February 3rd when he moves into Pisces and your eighth house.  He will stay in this new location until 2025.

In Aquarius, Neptune has been behaving in sort of a yin-yang energy to Uranus.  Uranus was in Neptune's zodiac sign and Neptune was in Uranus' zodiac sign.  They were each doing their thing, but focusing on the other's topics.  While Uranus was creating brotherhood online, Neptune was trying to make mental health, spirituality, and bureaucracies work for everyone.  One brought teamwork to humanitarian causes; the other brought humanitarian causes to teamwork.  One said, "I am mentally healthy and self-assured so that I can be a great team player."  The other said, "I am a great team player so that I can feel mentally healthy and self-assured."  Is it any wonder that "Yes we can" became the global motto in 2008?  To some, it was a delusional concept full of lollypop dreams and gullible "kool-aid" drinking.  To others, it was the logical and necessary blending of global teamwork and universal compassion.

For Leo, Neptune has been blessing your seventh house of marriage, best friends, business partnerships, and competitors (think yin-yang).  Neptune's time in seventh house Aquarius can romanticize the concepts of marrying a best friend.  He can work to bring magic, mystery, compassion, and idealism into your marriage.  Professional partnerships can benefit from Neptune's creativity and ability to maneuver through bureaucracy and red tape.  Best friends could have an almost psychic bond during this time.  Unfortunately, like all of the other planets, Neptune has his dark side and can bring dishonesty, secrets, gullibility, self-destruction, addictions, and "fogginess" into your partnerships.  It could be that your partners are being flaky or you could be the undependable one.  In a marriage, it can be tempting to decide (with Neptune's idealism) that maybe the grass would be greener in other pastures.  Unfortunately, it is your partnership sector that is hosting Neptune, so even if you were to leave to look for someone else, you would still have the Neptunian influence affecting any new partnerships.  This is equally true of social and professional partnerships too.  Neptune brings great "magic" and great "destruction" to whatever he touches depending on which planets are working with him and which ones are clashing with him.

In Pisces, Neptune is literally at home.  Neptune rules over Pisces and the concepts of mental health, attitudes, addictions, self-destruction, dishonesty, gullibility, emotional well-being, inner peace, intuition, secrets, spiritual mysteries, paranormal activities, charities, hospitals, prisons, corporations, bureaucracies, and other hidden forces that work behind the scenes.  Neptune is stronger here than he has been in a very long time.  He will do his best to bring out the loving, compassionate, peaceful, charitable, and magical elements of Pisces.  However, there will be times when other planets are clashing with Neptune and he will instead bring deceit, delusion, and bureaucratic red tape into our lives.

For Leo, Neptune will be in your eighth house of trust and sharing (sex and money).  Since Neptune rules over fogginess among other things, he tends to have a "now you see it, now you don't" affect on the financial sectors.  Money flows magically into your life and magically right back out again.  Since Neptune also rules over spirituality, mental health, intuition, and charities, it is not surprising that jobs that bring emotional well-being, compassion, love, and caring into your life are going to be financially beneficial at this time.  It is not that you cannot have money; it is that Neptune would rather give you peace of mind and a sense of pride that you took the path of "heart" over the path of "wealth".  Also, because Neptune does work in magical and paranormal ways, you could find that for the most part, your material needs are always taken care of even if your bank account lacks impressiveness.  Since the eighth house is also about sharing and therefore spousal income, you could find that your spouse is the one who is undergoing these financial issues rather than you personally.  In addition, since this is the area of your chart that governs intimacy, sexual unions, fidelity, and loyalty, you could find that these areas will have a similar "fogginess" to them.  You might fall madly in and out of love with many different people or maybe you feel that "Mr. or Ms Right" is always just beyond your grasp.  The idea of love and romance could be quite appealing, but the practical day-to-day aspects of being in a committed relationship could feel similar to the bureaucracy and red tape of working in a corporate job... too stifling, too many rules, too much "because this is just the way we do things."  You could also find yourself attracted to self-destructive or gullible partners or they could see you as a self-destructive or delusional partner.  Neptune brings both magic and destruction to your trust and sharing (sex and money) sector.

Pluto psychoanalyzes, empowers, and/or heals whatever he touches.  He has an uneven pattern and can spend as little as 13 years or as much as 32 years in any given zodiac sign.  His job is to uncover the hidden truths within our lives and to either empower us with passion and self-righteousness, or to heal us by forcing us to go through a Phoenix Rising type of experience.  It can be painful to endure Pluto's scrutiny, but it can ultimately prove to be incredibly uplifting.  Personal rebirth is often the result of Pluto's passage through certain areas of the zodiac.  Pluto rules over trust and sharing.  It is often through hidden motivations, hidden assets, hidden agendas, hidden resources, and/or through loyalty and fidelity matters that we find out what we are really made of and we find out what our partners are really made of.  Pluto can reveal gifts, assets, stamina, and psychological resources that we had no idea existed within ourselves.  And Pluto can reveal the selfish, greedy, and emotionally crippling aspects of ourselves too.  All too often, he uses our need for sexual intimacy and financial teamwork (trust and sharing) to teach us these lessons.  The reason that Scorpios are known to be so revengeful is because Scorpio co-rules over the trust and sharing concepts with Pluto.  Breaking trust is the worst thing you can do to a Scorpio.  From Scorpio's perspective, nothing could possibly be more important than the ability to trust others.

As 2012 begins, Pluto is still in Capricorn and your sixth house.  He moved into this area of your life in 2008 and will stay here until January 2024.

In Capricorn, Pluto focuses on doing the right thing because it is the right thing to do.  Capricorn rules over professionalism, leadership, goals and aspirations, success, civic duty, public recognition, and earning the respect of our peers.  Remember earlier when we talked about Saturn and how he teaches us about karma, cause and effect, and "tough love" style life lessons.  Saturn rules Capricorn and so Capricorn embraces the concepts of "tough love", doing one's civic duty, and ideas like "If I don't take care of this, who will?"  When in Sagittarius, Pluto promoted exploring the world and all of the various cultures, peoples, religions, etc.  Sagittarius promoted freedom to explore and to dabble in various religious and cultural teachings.  The idea that all religions are more alike than different and therefore we can pick and chose bits and pieces of which ones we like is a very Sagittarian approach to religion and spirituality.  We focused on global travel, politics, and mass media.  Pluto had a good time digging deep down into the truth about our political beliefs, our religious practices, our international diplomacy, and such.  Now, he is focusing on the business systems, ethics, integrity, and professionalism of our world.  Do the large corporations follow ethical business practices?  Do we have integrity in our government agencies?  Do we as individuals, as communities, as states, as countries... do we take on a parental role and look out for those in need or do we focus on our own personal agendas?  It may not feel like a lot of fun, but this is the perfect energy for fixing the economic system, the environmental policies, the human rights violations, the health care system, welfare programs, voting fraud, etc.  Big systems that are broken can be fixed, healed, restructured, and/or demolished in a smart and tenacious manner.  We have the planet of passion, truth, and rebirth focused on the zodiac sign of responsibility, integrity, and leadership.

For Leo, Pluto is in your sixth house of daily work, to-do lists, coworkers, productivity levels, physical health, and "feeling useful".  Pluto rules over trust and sharing (sex and joint finances) and Capricorn rules over integrity and success.  With Pluto in Capricorn in your sixth house of daily work, you should find that it becomes a lot easier to earn a living.  You have the planet of "our money" in the house of "my work" in the zodiac sign of "professionalism."  This makes it an amazingly strong energy for increasing your net worth regardless of what kind of work you do.  Because Capricorn is involved, you do have to work, the money probably will not come from lotteries or inheritances.  However, you have the planet of passion and hidden resources blessing your daily work sector, so your career should really benefit from Pluto's placement in your chart.  It may seem like you just "know" where to find money, professional resources, and a perfect way to get the job done.

There are times during this year when these big slow moving planets clash with each other and create a huge uproar in everyone’s life and there are times when they team up together to accomplish great things in our lives.  More detailed forecasts explaining how these slow moving planets will interact with each other (including how the faster more temperamental planets will affect us) are also available.
