Horoscope for the Year 2007 The following list offers a detailed breakdown of each planet influencing each sign in point form for the time period of These interpretations are a reflection of the Astro Weather and have a generic quality. In other words, while the influences they represent will be operative and probably noticeable, how they will influence people on an individual basis is more of a personal matter. This sketch of insights is a brief one and commentary can be lengthy according to respective angles of focus, yet it does provide an initial sense of the trends and themes. The Horoscope entries for each sign will lend that much more insight and as mentioned on my site there are two other signs in particular that you can read that will also prove insightful. Above all, consider obtaining a personal Astrology Chart reading with me for a truly accurate, clear and insightful look at your core and basic nature and where you are at now in the cycles of your life and what this upcoming year’ cycles indicate in terms of opportunities, changes and challenges so that you can live your life with greater awareness and choice to live on purpose.

Pluto On Pluto is the furthest planet from the Earth and so moves rather slowly through each sign of the Zodiac and it completes a full cycle in 248 years. As each of the 12 Signs of the Zodiac can be further divided by 12 to equal 2.5 degrees called a “Duad”, these divisions have significance, especially the last 2.5 degrees or Duad, which can generally be considered to be critical, with the very last degree of any Sign being the most critical of all. So for example, with Pluto in this position all year, we can expect some powerful transformational processes. This is especially true with Pluto as it represents power and it so happens that the last 2.5 degrees or Duad of Sagittarius is Scorpio, the Sign that Pluto rules. (The first Duad of any sign is governed by that sign and the next 2.5 degrees is governed by the next sign in order of the Zodiac starting with the sign in question. Thus for Sagittarius, the last Duad is Scorpio because it is the sign that precedes it. To get a better idea of this you simply have to look at the Zodiac and count 2.5 degrees for each sign in a counter clockwise direction) By way of interpretation, Pluto at the last degrees of Sagittarius will have very powerful implications in the areas of religion, philosophy, foreign exchange, higher education, publishing, morals and ethics and collective beliefs in general. The point is that we will all undergo some measurable changes and transformations in these areas. Pluto acts to purge and purify, change and transform whatever it touches. On many occasions over the course of 2005 I have drawn attention to the fact that Pluto at this position of Sagittarius is also in conjunction with the Over the course of 2007, the only far planet to aspect Pluto will be Saturn on August 6. Fortunately, the aspect will be a Trine which is considered the most fortunate aspect in Astrology. That stands to lend to a great deal of enthusiasm and creativity. This is especially so since the Trine is a Fire aspect and both Pluto and Saturn will be in Fire Signs, Sagittarius and Leo respectively. That the aspect occurs while the Sun is in Leo adds even more fuel to this Fire. Take note and make the most of it. On a deeper note, any planet that forms an aspect to Pluto comes under the influence of powerful transformational forces. Saturn and Pluto and the sign of Leo especially where Saturn is currently, are all strongly linked to power, and control and leadership and authority; perhaps the world will gain some initial glimpses of true integrity at the helms of power making important decisions that actually benefit societies and people at large and not simply a perpetuation of exploitation for private interests which have become a prevalent theme in the world over the past century or so. On The biggest challenges linked to Uranus On Uranus in Pisces is in Mutual Reception with Over the course of 2007 Uranus will receive three challenging aspects from Jupiter. All of these will be a Square aspect and there are three because of Jupiter turning retrograde in early April. The basic themes associated with this hard aspect include attempts at grandiose plans or get rich quick schemes. These are not bad in themselves per se; it is more a matter of timing. This aspect is linked to losses of large sums of money so it will be wise to think twice before laying large sums on the line. Also, cultism and eccentric religious practices are likely to flare-up and entire masses of people could be led into unhealthy spiritual associations that promise big and deliver small, except perhaps to those engineering these charades. Further, what constitutes unhealthy spiritual practices and attitudes etcetera is open to interpretation Saturn On Saturn is the first of the two far planets in 2007 that will change signs. The other is Jupiter. As Jupiter and Saturn are referred to as the “Social Signs” in Astrology, the signs that are closely linked to larger social cycles, they indicate some of the changes that will be seeded in 2007 and which will take on much more energy and impetus in 2008. This trend is very much in- tune with the fact that 2007 is a Universal 9 year. Saturn is currently in Leo and will enter Virgo on September 3. Aside from occasional challenging aspects from the personal planets, as is also true for all the planets, Saturn will receive one very significant aspect only and that will be a benevolent trine from Jupiter on March 16th. This aspect could prove very advantageous to anyone who is lined-up to take full advantage of it. Saturn will also make a Trine Aspect to Pluto in August as mentioned in the section on Pluto above. Also, as mentioned above in the section on When Saturn enters Virgo in September, we stand to see a much more concerted focus and preliminary efforts on the part of governments to make decisions with the environment clearly in mind. Virgo is the sign of health, holism, hygiene, ecology, lifestyle patterns, habits and rhythms and the health and purity of environment in general, or lack thereof. Jupiter On Jupiter is the ruling planet for Sagittarius so for it to be in its own sign over the course of 2007 we have reason to feel optimistic. Jupiter in Sagittarius will generally prove uplifting to people in many ways. Social and cultural activities and movements stand to be very exciting and grand. The love of religion, philosophy, travel and culture is basically emphasized. Perhaps a truly global vision will be born where all nations, creeds and cultures etcetera recognize their common ground as a human family. The codification of social thought is the deeper end of the deal as Sagittarius can be very serious about proper moral and ethical codes. Further, the quest for truth will range into spiritual, religious and metaphysical perspectives and this could prove very exciting and liberating to some yet also quite threatening to those whose religious beliefs are dogmatic and so unaccustomed and afraid of truly deep and sincere enquiry into human nature and other aspects of natural reality. In other words, it stands to open the discussion and debate about God and any who believe that they have that interpretation and understanding all squared away may well feel challenged as the floor opens to debate. Sagittarius is the quintessential sign of nature in its fullest depth, expansive reach and glory. It is the passionate interest in the realization that we are not merely in nature, as our mind may tend to lead us to believe, it reminds us that we are nature itself! For example, we are made up of the very same elements as the planets and the very cosmos itself. Sagittarius knows no limits in terms of its reach for higher truths and reality and in this respect can be considered cosmic and seeks to achieve cosmic consciousness. Astrology works by virtue of this understanding and is linked to timeless ideas like ‘sympathetic resonance’ ‘oneness’ ‘no islands in the universe’ ‘the divine plan’ and so on. So grand questions, debates and discussions about the greater scheme of things, who we are, the deeper meaning of life and our place in the world and the larger universe will all become much more prevalent and perhaps even break through the highly censored mainstream media. On the other hand, Jupiter is big and when in its own sign this grandiose quality will be most apparent. So, in as much as it makes or receives challenging aspects, the challenges it represents could come across in a much exaggerated manner. This is where certain people and factions will make great efforts to convert others to their way of thinking. In certain respects this is fair and understandable as limiting beliefs must be broken and converting to a higher vision could prove very healthy. The biggest issue linked to this is dogmatic, fanatical and fear based coercion of people using fear and violence as a means of convincing them. History is unfortunately full of such actions and attitudes and hopefully we have evolved enough to see beyond such tyranny and criminal behavior. Overall, Jupiter in Sagittarius indicates the likelihood of visionary and prophetic attitudes and actions. Chiron On Chiron is symbolic of the Wounded Healer archetype and it is most interesting at this time to see it in the sign of Aquarius. This is the sign of brotherhood, friendship, clubs, group affiliations and the ideals of equality between all people. On a personality level, Aquarius expresses itself in individuated, unorthodox, inventive, unusual ways and often does not feel appreciated for their eccentric attitudes or understood for their future oriented visions. On the other hand, they do not care necessarily and would rather assume a rebellious, aloof and, at worst, superior attitude. Aquarius is a fixed sign and they can be very stubborn indeed and would sometimes rather enter into rebellion than change. At higher reaches, Aquarian born people are revolutionaries who share their visions and ideals with others and challenge the status quo with revolutionary impetus. They do feel sympathetic for the problems of humanity and the woes of others but their approach is more intellectual than emotional. With Leo as the polar opposite sign, Aquarians achieve balance by truly being focused upon love and heart felt feelings to counterbalance an otherwise detached and even indifferent attitude. There is more to say about Aquarius but at this point I simply want to point out that the wound that humanity is currently confronting is one of a wounded heart. We have learned to place too much emphasis upon the mind and intellectuality and not enough upon the heart and love. This is the core wound that we all as individuals and as a species need to recognize and heal. With Chiron in Aquarius at the degrees mentioned above, this stands to be very challenging indeed because when Chiron enters the second Decant of Aquarius ruled by Gemini, or is from 10 to 20 degrees, it will very likely stir blaming attitudes because Chiron in Gemini is very challenged and its principle issue is one of blame. Chiron will be at 10 degrees Aquarius on January 30th and will remain in the second Decant until Lunar North Node On The Lunar Node Axis is a very powerful feature of Astrology both East and West and is a strong indicator of evolutionary dynamics and processes. Throughout a person’s life, the movement of the North and South Node correspond with 9 year cycles and this measurement is very revealing when considering a persons priorities, orientations and choices at any given time period in their life. The Node Axis consists of North and South with the North symbolic of the head and the South the Tail of a dragon. This is the mythic dragon of destiny, in this case. Consequently, the North Node gains particular attention as it is where we feed, have eyes and breathe fire, so to speak. It takes almost exactly 18 months for the Lunar Nodes to transit through any given sign. By year end 2007 the Lunar Nodes will be in new Signs – Aquarius and Leo. This change of Signs for the Lunar Axis will occur on The North Node in Pisces represents a deep soul search. In this regard it is very mystical yet also significantly challenging to let go of ingrained habits as represented by the South Node in Virgo. At worst, this process is very confusing and even frightening. With Neptune as the ruling planet for Pisces currently in Aquarius, and in mutual reception with Uranus, as mentioned above, we have some reason to feel confident that the cosmos is assisting us at this crucial evolutionary juncture in our modern civilization to awaken to the fact that all of humanity is one family and that we can no longer afford to perpetuate many of the attitudes and perspectives that keep us divided from one another and from the laws of nature. In these respects, we have a great deal of work to do and we do not have much time to do it. This especially due to the fact that the ecology is experiencing too much stress and decay and Mother Nature will retaliate with a vengeance as we can already see happening all over the world. So, the current position of the North Node especially is about awakening to new ideals that are actually in touch with the realities of our times. This is something of a paradox because the North Node is in Pisces which is the sign of dreams and ideals. However, it is also the sign of the collective subconscious mind, or as the popular term thanks to Carl Jung goes, the Collective Unconscious. (This term is problematic because the subconscious is not unconscious, it is simply below the threshold of consciousness and, if anything, we are unconscious of it but it is actually very conscious indeed.) Anyway, it is also interesting to note that when the North Node does shift into Aquarius in mid December of 2007 Uranus, the ruling planet of the new North Node, will be in mutual reception with the Blessings for increased consciousness in 2007 and may these insights add awareness to your journey for our collective sake.
