2011 free monthly horoscope for January

The New Year starts with a (North Node) Solar Eclipse at 13° Capricorn around January 4. Though we have read quite some forecasts pointing to the disruptive energy of this particular Solar Eclipse, we do not agree with it at all.

Of course, your individual natal chart has to be taken into account too, but we consider this Solar Eclipse to be a highly auspicious one, with some challenges in the background too. Let's take a look.

During this Solar Eclipse, there are two important planetary pairs forming at the same numerical degrees: Venus at 26° Scorpio squares Neptune at 26° Aquarius and Jupiter conjuncts Uranus at 27° Pisces. Venus trines the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction and builds a small triangle with Neptune.

Venus and Neptune squaring each other at the same numerical degree (26° in a sign) builds the most challenging aspect during the Eclipse.

On a mundane level, it brings issues related with water and/or gases (inundations, explosions) and on a personal level, it is above all related to love's sorrow and tearful events linked to the separation from a beloved one.

It can be quite a tragic combination, depending on where transiting Venus and Neptune fall in your own natal chart, but it will take time for the pain to disappear... It looks like you hang on to your sorrow, which you should avoid. You want to be alone, and perhaps that's the best thing to consider if you want to conquer your issues.

Jupiter and Uranus at the same numerical degree (27° in a sign) are most auspicious and bring relief in any situation, how bad your situation looks. Both planets are always related to major breakthroughs in the world of technology, ICT, aircrafts, space and the Universe.

Remember that the first Man on the Moon made his first steps during an exact Jupiter-Uranus conjunction too and you hopefully will agree that WAS a milestone. Indeed, the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction always signifies a Quantum Leap! But there is more...

The Asteroid Chiron at 27° Aquarius too is at the same numerical degree as Jupiter and Uranus. Chiron is related to breakthroughs too, unlocking doors, making the configuration just more awesome, exceptional, extraordinary and way more important and significant. Though a Solar Eclipse works out for about 6 months with a peak during the month of the Eclipse and another peak 3 months later, we will likely experience a highly important "revolution" in the above-mentioned fields starting January 2011.

The small triangle that is active during the Solar Eclipse is related to dissatisfaction and "a lost feeling" (i.e. difficulties in coping with a new way of living, with new realities).

Because this Solar Eclipse is a North Node Eclipse, it's more related to starting new ventures, initiating something totally new.

Also, 13° Capricorn is a fortunate and auspicious degree, especially related to relationships and love. For lots of people (not only for Prince William), this Solar Eclipse will bring a new love, a marriage, a baby, public recognition and appeal in the months to come... If you are born around January 16-18, February 15-17,4 March 17-19, April 16-18, May 17-19, June 17-20, July 16-21, August 20-22, September 19-22, October 19-22, November 18-20 or December 18-20 you will feel the exceptional powers of this Eclipse to the fullest.

If you are born around March 12, June 13, September 14-15 or December 14 you may be in a somber mood around January 5. You feel punished or just down. Don't stick to your sorrow, it's only very temporarily.

The Sun at 16° Capricorn squares Saturn at 16° Libra around January 7, blocking your creative self-expression if you are born around January 6-7, February 5, March 7, April 6, May 7, June 7, July 9, August 9, September 9, October 10, November 9 or December 8. It's not your day...

Around January 11, Mercury at 27° Sagittarius squares the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction at 27° Pisces. There is a fortunate change of course and new insight that will lead you to a more optimistic view. Messages and letters of hope might help you.

Mercury enters serious and business-like Capricorn around January 13. Back to business! Around January 13-15, Mercury will bring lots of talks. You may be very talkative and excited these days, especially if you are born around February 5, March 22, May 7, June 23, August 9, September 24, November 9 or December 23. You will share your excitement and experiences with others. Watch or listen to the possible press conferences!

Mercury conjuncts Pluto at 5° Capricorn around January 18, making for aggressive thinking and physical injuries. The past has shown that Mercury-Pluto in Capricorn is not too good a combination because it's very harsh. There are issues around financial matters too that need to be resolved.

The Sun enters independent Aquarius around January 20. It's time to break free. Make a trip, travel or leave home and go out.

Jupiter enters pioneering and initiating Aries around January 22. Especially the first degree Aries is the most initiating, igniting and sparkling one of the zodiac. Your world view will get a new boost and something (or someone) totally new will enter your world and change your world view. Jupiter in Aries is the real pioneer, adventurer and traveler who always looks to expand his/her life. However, Jupiter may become careless too and may take inappropriate risks. Still try to be moderate.

Around January 26, Saturn stations and turns retrograde at 17° Libra. At the same time it squares Mercury. Because Saturn is Mercury's dispositor (Mercury is in Capricorn which is ruled by Saturn), sorrow prevails and marks late January 2011.

According to the research by C.E.O. Carter in his The Astrology of Accidents, 17° in Cardinal Signs is exceptionally violent. This degree is often associated with physical injuries through fire arms. Saturn and Libra rule the skin and skin problems (often the result of burns) may occur as well. Saturn is also often related to (accidental) falls, and you are warned to be careful where you walk or cycle. Just to say that there is violence around late January 2011. Take care!

2011 free monthly horoscope for February

Around February 2, Venus at 28° Sagittarius squares Uranus at 28° Pisces resulting in short-lived enjoyable encounters and meetings. You may easily fall in or out of love. Just know that you should not expect any lasting union to blossom under this transit.

Mercury enters independent Aquarius around February 3 and tries to find some interesting information in group gatherings or on the internet.

Around February 4, Venus enters business-minded Capricorn and becomes more interested in money than in love. Love may have a price... As long as Venus resides in Capricorn, the focus is on material wealth and objects (of beauty). Relationships have to be valuable and that's why love relationships may start in your working environment. Also, a lover or beloved one who can help you in your business may get your highest approval.

Between (and around) February 3-5, Venus is in a highly auspicious position regarding matters of love. It builds a very fortunate planetary picture that affects you directly if you are born around February 4-5, March 21-22, May 6, June 21-22, August 8, September 23-24, November 8 or December 22-23. Part of this picture is the Sun-Mars conjunction of February 4 at 15° Aquarius and the Venus-Moon's Node conjunction at 0° Capricorn.

Indeed, do not in any way miss the opportunities around the days of February 3-5 that may have a stellar influence on your love life. Socialize, meet & greet. This configuration and planetary picture does not happen so very often the more so because it's not afflicted.

If you are born around February 6, March 23, May 8, June 24, August 10, September 26, November 10 or December 25, you're in "fire and flame" around February 6. Let love surprise you! Moreover, it's a very affectionate day that will last the whole year if you are born around this day too as the auspicious love configurations remain in your solar return chart for the coming (solar return) year.

Around the same day of February 6, Venus at 2° Capricorn squares Jupiter at 2° Aries. You're very popular and may enjoy social gatherings. Make a trip or travel and enjoy!

If you are born around February 6-7, March 23-24, May 8-9, June 24-25, August 10-11, September 26-27, November 10-11 or December 25-26, you're going to experience yet another auspicious day around February 7-8. You may feel overjoyed. It's time for a proposal or a Wedding. What you do now will succeed.

Passion increases around February 10 when Venus joins Pluto at 6° Capricorn. However, if you are a woman, this conjunction may work out quite violently too. You better avoid some men because of brutal and enforced feelings. Also, there may be separation (death) from a woman.

Too much of a good thing is never good and around February 11, separation and stress mark your love life. This is especially so if you are born around December 29, February 12, March 28, May 14, June 29, August 16, October 1, November 15 or December 29. In some instances the astrological configuration that is active will bring childbirth though (which is also kind of a separation).

The Moon's North Node enters Sagittarius around February 13. If you are born around January 1, March 31, July 2 or October 4, you may want to be alone, feel lucky alone too, or do some home improvements or beautifications. Make it cozy at home.

The Sun and Neptune meet at 28° Aquarius around February 17, resulting in chaotic and confusing experiences. There may be a tragic loss of any kind and this conjunction is not an auspicious one. There is sadness, separation and violence.

Moreover, Venus at 16° Capricorn squares Saturn at 16° Libra during the perigee Full Moon (called a SuperMoon) of February 18, mourning a separation. Indeed, this square is particularly bad because Saturn is the dispositor of Venus AND both are in mutual reception (Venus is ruled by Saturn because Venus is posited in Capricorn which is ruled by Saturn -- any planet square its own dispositor works out in a most challenging and often turbulent way, also depending on the dignity of the planets involved).

Because of the perigee Full Moon (the Moon is closest to the Earth now), there is more gravitational pull on weather patterns and tectonic plates, resulting in extreme weather conditions. Also, emotions tend to run higher too.

**********SIDEBAR**********
The next SuperMoons, perigee Full Moons, to take notice of are: March 19 and April 17. Because these are all Full Moons and occur late in the zodiac signs, they are quite disruptive and separative. The next SuperMoons happen later this year and are all New Moons falling early in a sign. Perigee moons often bring earthquakes or volcanic activity!
**********SIDEBAR**********

Around February 19, the Sun enters spiritual and compassionate Pisces.

Mercury conjoins Mars and Neptune around February 20-21 at 28° Aquarius, resulting in yet more violence and harsh disputes. Chaotic experiences are likely to happen. In some cases, this planetary combo points to illness and flu-like symptoms. Mind your health in case you are born around January 19, February 17, March 19, April 19, May 20, June 20, July 21, August 22, September 21, October 22, November 21 or December 21. Also, mind your words as you tend to be too harsh and sharp now. There is too much gossip around.

Mercury enters Pisces around February 21, followed by Mars around February 23. Also know that Uranus is now at 29° Pisces, right at the Fixed Star Scheat, the most "watery" degree of the zodiac (think shipwrecks, rain, inundations and floods!). Energies are difficult to focus in Pisces. The mood is becoming more sensitive and your projects become more compassionate. A helping hand goes out to all the ones who suffer. Beware of too moody (irrational) and oversenitive reactions though.

Around February 25, the Sun conjuncts Mercury at 6° Pisces while Jupiter at 7° Aries squares Pluto at 7° Capricorn. There are lots of expenses to be made.

Uranus at 29° Pisces squares the North Node of the Moon at 29° Sagittarius causing upheaval for many around February 27.

2011 free monthly horoscope for March

March 1 brings you in an artistic mood if you are born around January 19, March 5, April 19-20, June 5, July 22, September 7, October 23 or December 7. Some of these birthdays may be hopelessly in love and full of (unfulfilled) longings. There may be one-way-love or unrequited love.

Transform the energies and go to the movies or read/write poetry or go out shooting pictures and be creative above all.

Venus enters independent Aquarius around March 2 and will enjoy group events and social gatherings in rather an impersonal way. But still, Venus is in a good position while it resides in this fixed air sign and is very compassionate (humanitarian).

If you are born around January 27-28, March 13, April 28, June 13-14, July 31, September 15, October 31 or December 14-15, there is a lot of sorrow noticeable around March 5. Actually, the whole month of March may bring some inhibitions, a loss of energy and uneasiness (dis-ease) into your life.

Around March 9, Mercury at 28° Pisces squares the Moon's North Node at 28° Sagittarius, resulting in issues regarding traffic and communication on land and sea. It's a busy time.

Mercury conjuncts Uranus at 29° Pisces around March 9 and will enter pioneering Aries the same day. Mercury is in a very weak position when it enters Aries.

In this position, Mercury has knowledge of secrets and secret plans/projects. It may bring sudden and breaking news about death(s), illness and/or accidents. There is confusion and uncertainty.

While Mercury travels through Aries later on, it will be very assertive, outspoken and insightful. Mind your words though as this position tends to talk faster than it is able to think.

Uranus enters Aries around March 12 and will present some startling novelties and breaking news.

If you want to know more about the signification of Uranus in Aries, read the article in our February 2011 newsletter.

The 1st degree Aries is a highly important one as it is related to the beginning of the Tropical Zodiac. The 1st degree Aries is the most pioneering and initiating degree of the tropical zodiac, denoting fresh starts and everything that starts anew or is called a "first ever."

In Cosmobiology, 0° Aries is called the Aries Point and it refers to "The Earth" and the "World" (at large). Any planet or body at this degree will show events that have a HUGE impact on all of us, on the whole world and should be seen as historic moments. Events are now visible, out in the open, to all of us (to the World at large), for good or bad.

Uranus will stay the whole month of March at the 1st degree Aries, which may prove to become a rather eruptive and upsetting combination.

If you are born around January 27-28, March 13, April 28, June 13-14, July 31, September 15, October 31 or December 14-15, there is illness around March 13 and you don't feel well at all. If you are born around the same day of March 13, your whole (solar return) year is marked by dis-ease. So, take care!

Mercury at 7° Aries squares Pluto at 7° Capricorn around March 13 denoting vexation and annoyance. You are obsessed with an idea and put all your energy into what's on your mind. You may have tunnel vision now so that it's best to not jump to conclusions too soon.

Mercury conjuncts Jupiter at 11° Aries around March 16, bringing auspicious research results. Your efforts will be honored (but it will take efforts!!). The downside is that, while you feel obliged to find answers, you tend to become fanatical in your search. You tend to stick to your opinion even if there is lots of opposition. You will experience this transit to the full if you are born around January 2, February 15, April 1, May 18, July 3, August 20, October 5 or November 19.

Around March 18, Mercury at 15° Aries opposes Saturn at 15° Libra, resulting in annoying administration and burdensome paperwork or (receiving/sending) sad messages. Messages of separation/divorce come and go... It seems there was no love or love did not work out quite well...

March 19 is marked by a SuperMoon (a perigee Full Moon) at 28° Virgo, upsetting a lot of people because the Sun at the malevolent Fixed Star Scheat also squares the Moon's Nodes.

Because of the perigee Full Moon (the Moon is closest to the Earth now) and beside increased emotional behavior, there is also more gravitational pull on weather patterns and tectonic plates, resulting in extreme weather conditions also.

The Sun enters Aries around March 21 and conjuncts Uranus around the same day. It may be a rather disappointing or even sad day. Your energy level may be low.

Around March 27, Venus conjuncts Neptune at 29° Aquarius and enters Pisces on the same day. Your love ideals run very high and your compassion increases. You have artistic desires and you may want to be an object of beauty.

Around March 28, the Sun at 7° Aries squares Pluto at 7° Capricorn resulting in a heavy workload and lots of resistance. You bite the dust... But you don't want to succumb...

Around March 28, Jupiter at 14° Aries opposes Saturn at 14° Libra (also called the relationship axis and the axis about "war or peace"), denoting a standstill during the exact aspect. Jupiter and Saturn are totally opposing forces and when they are in an exact opposition (resulting in a separation), they are out of reach.

The opposition is active till early April.

Oppositions are awareness aspects (like Full Moons) where "the other", other people or outer situations and circumstances demand us to do something. The aspect brings a blend of optimism/happiness (Jupiter) on the one side and sadness and limitations (Saturn) on the other hand.

Also, because of the opposition, you are actually not sure which of these conflicting emotions (happy or sad) now prevail. The aspect is about what is allowed (Jupiter) vs. what is prohibited (Saturn), about widening horizons (Jupiter) or closing borders (Saturn).

Both planets are related to law and the legal systems as well as academic and philosophic thinking.

In many instances this opposition brings delays and conflicting messages. Things are postponed till a decision can be made.

On a mundane level, the Jupiter-Saturn opposition is often found during times of high risks and danger. The opposition acts like an over-stretched rubber band of which you don't know if it will give...

Some marriages and/or bonds will end in divorce (= happy separations!) and juridical clashes as long as this transit is active.

All in all, the Jupiter-Saturn opposition in the axis of relationships wants something to be released or will release something -- for the better.

Mars at 27° Pisces squares the Moon's Nodes at 27° Sagittarius around March 30. Clashes and arguments may result.

Around the same day of March 30, Mercury turns retrograde at 24° Aries resulting in sticking together and opposing ideas (this configuration may become clear and noticeable in strikes and manifestations). You may have to reconsider your sayings. Group actions prevail under this transit.

The station shows that you can't manage it all alone and you do feel the need to bond. Marriages are likely to start now but consider that a stationary retrograde period is never good to ignite or start any important life-changing event as you will re-consider when Mercury goes direct again.

However, sometimes you may just feel "obliged" to bond (for example because of an unexpected pregnancy etc.) though you should be aware that this alone is never a good reason! ONLY start a bond (marriage) if you are really willing to take your FULL responsabilities. Only then, this is an auspicious time for a proposal/marriage.

2011 free monthly horoscope for April

April starts quite violently with the entrance of Mars, the Warrior, in its own zodiac sign Aries around the 2nd. Actually, this month will be prone to lots of disturbing and highly unsettling influences on many levels and for many of us.

Why so?

Because the April 3 apogee New Moon at 13° Aries:

• is exactly (!) square the January 4 Solar Eclipse (triggering the Eclipse)
• is exactly opposite blocking Saturn
• is accompanied by the explosive Mars-Uranus conjunction at 1° Aries
• is accompanied by chaotic Neptune entering Pisces around April 4
• happens during the Pluto station at 7° Capricorn (which is about to regress around April 9)
• is accompanied by a stellium of 5 or 6 planets and bodies (depending on the Moon's position) in pushy and active Aries

On a more positive note, Jupiter conjoins the Sun around the early days of April, making an exact conjunction with the Sun around April 6 at 16° Aries.

So far the quite heavy configurations that will mark April 2011. What does this all signify?

First of all, the entrance of Mars in its own zodiac sign Aries will trigger primal instincts and physical urges to come out in the open. You may tend to become fiery and act on pure impulses. There is a strong fight or flight theme going on.

Early April we will experience raw Aries power due to this and also because of the strong Aries stellium.

Mars becomes very aggressive in the early degrees of Aries, the more so because it's also about to conjunct Uranus. The Mars-Uranus combo is always known and feared for it's accident-prone and highly disrupting influences resulting in physical injuries and damage.

Also, Mars-Uranus is often involved in surgery, violence, earthquakes and volcanic activity.

Together with the still active Jupiter-Saturn opposition, it's also related to assassinations and/or separation from a male authority figure (resignation, demise,...).

Mars-Uranus in the early degrees of Aries represents gunshots, gunfire and explosions. It may bring really dramatic and unexpected changes. Events are proceeding at lightning speed.

Also, in mundane astrology this conjunction is often part of earthquakes and the whole month of April (especially now and later on around the perigee Full Moon) may bring severe earthquakes.

This will be especially so if these configurations are accompanied by an X-class Solar flare directed towards planet Earth. So, in case such a major solar storm happens and depending upon its speed (it may reach the earth from about a day till a week after the eruption) chances are it will trigger a massive earthquake.

The New Moon opposite Saturn brings sorrow and unfulfilled plans. Events are still postponed. The time is not right yet to proceed with anything. There still is a standstill and delay, especially regarding law and legal matters.

You may want to proceed but others want to withhold and each has its reasons. You have to face this.

As soon as Jupiter and Saturn will separate and their influence will decrease (and ease), chances are you may be able to slowly unfold and proceed more successfully again.

You just need patience and it has no sense enforcing anything under the current transits.

The influence of Neptune entering its own sign is not to be underestimated also. For a delineation of Neptune in Pisces, we refer to the article about Neptune in Pisces in our April 2011 Love Letter.

Anyway, the 1st degree Pisces is a very unstable and chaotic one (in fact, it's the most chaotic degree of the zodiac). Though Neptune is at home in its own zodiac sign, it's still in the early degrees and needs time to accomodate.

Neptune at 0° Pisces has a very dissolving influence. Floods, inundations, sinkings and more water or gas related trouble are to be feared and may influence your love life.

It does not come as a surprise because NOAA has just issued a public warning on March 17, 2011 stating that Spring flooding is underway and expected to worsen in April 2011 in the USA. Forewarned is forearmed!

It is also related to experiencing unreal events that happen beyond your wildest dreams or imagination (for good or bad).

As long as Neptune is at 0° Pisces what's (feared) Unreal may become Real and the Impossible becomes Possible.

The strong fiery Aries configurations will be felt deeply if you are born under the zodiac sign Aries. Expect a highly hectic and busy (solar return year) with many events to happen, especially on a personal and relationship level.

If you are born under the Sun sign of Sagittarius, your love life is going to be a major focus too. The topic of children may pop up as well.

If your Sun sign is Taurus, expect sorrow and/or illness or dis-ease.

Around April 6, the Sun and Jupiter conjunct at 16° Aries. This combo may bring loneliness and sorrow though because Neptune is also involved in the picture.

The Sun and Mercury meet at 19° Aries around April 9 resulting in talks that may lead to nothing... You are taking it all too personally and need a more sobering and detached look.

Pluto turns retrograde around the same day of April 9 at 7° Capricorn and enforces its influence powerfully these first days of April 2011. It adds to the "Mars-Uranus-in-early-Aries" transformative and unsettling influences. The changes are quite dramatic. Light wants to break through the Darkness.

It's about leaving old formalities and masks behind. It's about breaking up borders and walls and pushing through with all force.

Freedom should reign and something needs to be rebuilt.

Interestingly, 7° Capricorn is a highly important degree representing changes related to one's career, the father, authority figures or governments. No doubt, lots of governments in the world are about to experience another overhaul as long as 7° Capricorn is activated by Pluto.

The more Pluto will proceed in Capricorn the more governments (Capricorn) will continue to reform (from the bottom up) and break free from their blocking and bureaucratic behavior and mindset.

Pluto will act like a plough in the earth sign Capricorn and will try to transform lots of strict, rigid, old-fashioned structures, rules and regulations.

Because Pluto is such a slow-moving body it will still take time (at least till it reaches 27° Capricorn).

Know that Pluto always goes to the deepest level so that it will surely bring everything from "the deep" out into the open, slowly but steadily and it will leave no stone unturned.

The result will be that rigid structures WILL break FOR SURE.

Flexibility is a must during this transit.

Another very important meaning of this stationary retrograde Pluto position and the active Jupiter-Saturn opposition has to do with real estate, buildings and property. It's time to rebuild or renovate buildings, sell or buy property. You may plan a move or consider living together.

Around April 11-12, Mars at 7° Aries squares Pluto at 7° Capricorn resulting in violent clashes. It's a very stressful period with lots of tension and upheaval. All kinds of accidents and violence will happen under this aspect. The band is breaking...

If you are born around December 29, February 11, March 28, May 13, June 29, August 15, October 1 or November 15 this month and especially April 11-12, may become very hectic for you indeed with tons of work. You will need to direct your energy well not to cause any disruptions or accidents.

Fortunately, around April 12, Mercury conjuncts Jupiter at 17° Aries resulting in talks, minor breakthroughs and hope.

Venus at 26° Pisces squares the Moon's Node at 26° Sagittarius denoting social gatherings for a purpose.

Mars at 12° Aries opposes Saturn at 12° Libra around the perigee Full Moon of April 18 (it's another SuperMoon), fighting its way through limitations and hard work. You are urged to really push hard to get through a heavy burden.

Around the perigee Full Moon another very uncomfortable period is to be expected with possible extreme weather (incl. earthquakes and/or volcanic activity). Emotions may run high.

Quarrels and disputes may result as Mercury joins Mars at 13° Aries around April 19. But who's to blame? Do mind your words as aggressive Mars does not think first before talking or discussing.

Traffic accidents may happen under the Mercury-Mars conjunction, so you better be careful on trips and travel.

Mercury is in not too bad a situation though as it is able to convince.

The Sun enters Taurus around April 20, the most inert zodiac sign, resulting in more stubborn behavior.

Around April 21, Venus enters Aries and becomes highly flirtatious. Love at first sight and short-lived (love) encounters mark late April.

Venus conjuncts Uranus at 2° Aries around April 23 while Mercury stations to turn direct again at 12° Aries. Socialize! You may find love now. Some of you may have to deal with legal issues and/or disputes/arguments around Mercury's station though.

Indeed, direct Mercury in fiery Aries is quite assertive and will tell what's on the mind. You will try to push your opinion through.

After the love at first sight of April 23 comes a break-up around April 27 when Venus at 7° Aries squares Pluto at 7° Capricorn. This may especially affect you if you are born around December 29, February 11, March 28, May 13, June 29, August 15, October 1 or November 15.

It's not a peaceful period but still try to be moderate and balanced.

If you are born around January 27, March 12, April 27, June 13, July 30, September 14, October 30 or December 14, you should mind your health around April 26-27. Take care!

2011 free monthly horoscope for May

Venus at 11° Aries opposes Saturn at 11° Libra around the 1st of May. This is a bummer and your love life cools off. Saturn restricts your commitments in all your relationships. Love is lived at a distance and you are separated from a beloved one. In some cases, travel or a change of the residence is the cause.

However, some of you may feel the wall or mask/facade that others build or show and through which you can't look. This may denote a frustrating time. This is not a time for love but for taking responsabilities.

You may feel alone and even lonely.

Expect financial hurdles and restrictions too. You better don't spend too much money now and better be conservative.

Hesitation and reluctancy are part of the day's energies if you are born around January 2-3, April 2-3, July 4-5 or October 5-6.

Around the same day of May 1, Mars conjuncts Jupiter at 22° Aries favoring taking action. You can make your point clear and get the word out. You tend to focus on education, propagation and getting things done. Progress is in the air.

If you are born around January 6, February 19-20, April 5, May 21, July 7, August 23, October 8-9 or November 22-23, expect financial issues (or expenses) around May 3-4. There can be betrayal (theft?) or some disappointment regarding possessions or financial matters.

For some of these birthdays, seduction is in the air and your fidelity may be questioned.

Around May 9, Mercury and Venus conjoin at 22° Aries. Both planets together bring peace and fortunate agreements. If you want to sign any agreements, now is the time.

Send love letters and messages of love to your beloved ones.

Around May 11 there can be shocking news though, shaking your world. Around that day, Mars enters the earth sign Taurus while Mercury AND Venus together conjunct Jupiter at 24° Aries. Clearly, this day may bring a mixed bag of events -- some very auspicious ones and some terrible ones as well.

The Mercury - Venus - Jupiter combo at 24° Aries is without a doubt a highly auspicious configuration that will affect you if you are born around January 15, February 13, March 15, April 15, May 16, June 16, July 17, August 18, October 18 or December 17.

Your love life may prosper under this transit, you may receive nice comments or gifts all over, get money more easily and make wishes come true. Life is beautiful, you feel lucky and/or happy!

However, for others, May 10-11 may prove to become a burden, especially on a material level because of Mars entering the most material and possessive zodiac sign Taurus. You want to fight for your goods and possessions as much as possible and don't want to give an inch.

For the coming days, your focus is on your possessions and possible purchases/expenses.

If you are born around December 29, February 11, March 28, May 13, June 29, August 15, October 1, November 15 or December 29, expect lots of tension and stress around May 13. You need to release tension and stress and show lots of resistance to outer forces and circumstances that try to force you in a certain direction you don't want to follow. In some cases, illness and separation is possible.

In case you are born around this day of May 13, your whole (solar return) year is marked by tension and stress and trying to cope with it. Find an outlet to release the tension.

Mercury and Venus both enter the fixed earth sign Taurus around May 16 as a couple, favoring the love life of all earth signs (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn) for the next weeks.

Aside from Mercury (and the Sun), the planets of love (Venus and Mars) now too reside in Taurus, making it a wondrous time to find love.

May 17 is above all an artistic day on which you live more in your head than in reality. It's a day about longings, listening to music, shooting photos, meditation and travel (in the mind).

It's likely that your mind is not so clear (it's playing tricks) and that your thinking is rather distorted. Your fantasy rules. This will be especially so if you are born around January 23, March 8, April 23, June 8, July 25, September 10, October 26 or December 10.

Mercury and Mars conjoin at 7° Taurus around May 21. You're bold in the way you communicate (talking in bullets or keywords is quite common under this transit) and you don't want to spend many words saying what's on your mind or heart. Instead you go for action.

The Sun enters mutable Gemini around May 21, bringing more "air" and movement to some heavy and earthy configurations.

Because the Sun also squares Neptune around the same day, beware of disappointments, gossip or lies. Life may be chaotic and hectic with nervousness and many changes of the place. It's a good time for reclusion and meditation or to travel (alone) though, but be aware of some confusing moments.

Venus and Mars are conjunct at 9° Taurus around May 23. It's an auspicious day to live your passions, the more so if you are born around January 29, March 15, April 30, June 16, August 2, September 18, November 2 or December 17.

Around May 29, there is news about a separation. This can be anything ranging from travel to hospitalization or even death. It's a hectic, stressful day with lots of tension. You may try to resist what the Universe imposes upon you.

2011 free monthly horoscope for June

The month of June 2011 starts with a Solar Eclipse on the 1st day at 11° Gemini. The Eclipse is part of the Saros 13 South cycle, a series that in mundane astrology is especially of influence and importance to Australia.

This was noticeable during the 13 North Solar Eclipse of January 4, 2011 when Australia experienced massive floods. For the coming 6-7 months we again expect some wild weather in Australia, the more so because we will also experience lots of SuperMoons starting in September, resulting in extreme weather here and there in the whole world.

Anyway, This Solar Eclipse of June 1 has some restricting influences but will also bring some formalizing events. Love may be at a distance and you're focused on responsabilities and the career.

Around June 2, Mercury, the messenger, enters its own sign Gemini. There is the need to change the place more often and exchange ideas and opinions. It's a good time for short trips and for gathering all the information you need but try to stay away from gossip.

Neptune stations and turns retrograde around June 3 at 0° Pisces and squares Mercury. It's time to become more realistic and get down to earth. The Mercury-Neptune square may bring chaos in the fields of transport, traffic and communication. You can't believe or trust anybody now and the information you get is unreliable. You better don't propose or engage as this transit may bring deceptions, misunderstandings and false assumptions.

Jupiter enters Taurus around June 4, bringing expenses. Jupiter always tends to over-do, be overconfident and in the fixed earth sign Taurus, Jupiter likes the feel of money and acts as if money and resources are no problem.

Around June 9, Venus enters dual Gemini and becomes the loving butterfly, creating fairy-tale fantasies and longings as it applies to a square with Neptune at 0° Pisces. The square will be exact around June 10 and should work out well in an artistic way. In matters of love, you will be mistaken though. What you see is not what you get!

There is sorrow around June 12 if you are born around March 11, June 12, September 13 or December 13.

The Sun and Mercury join forces at 21° Gemini around June 13 to bring the word out.

Around the same day of June 13, Saturn stations at 10° Libra and turns direct. Matters of the past and/or family matters prevail during this station, the more so because Mercury also opposes the Moon's North Node at 23° Sagittarius. Documents or letters from the past come into the open or are on the agenda.

The Lunar Eclipse at 24° Sagittarius around June 15 brings issues to the foreground, related to a male person.

Mercury enters emotional Cancer around June 16 and lets your imagination wander.

Around June 18, Mercury at 4° Cancer squares Uranus at 4° Aries, resulting in breaking news and issues about real estate or buildings.

A day later, around June 19, Mercury will oppose obsessive Pluto at 6° Capricorn. You're obsessed with an idea and can't get it out of your head.

Actually, as soon as Mercury entered Cancer, it started building a Cardinal Grand Cross with Saturn, Uranus and Pluto. Because mid to late June is marked by this Grand Cross, there will be lots of (emotional and) restless talks. It looks like you can't stop talking and thinking. Everyone's talking... Breaking news keeps coming in in waves. And there's lots to do.

If you are born around December 29-30, March 28-29, June 30 or October 1-2, there is lots of stress around June 20. You may be forced to change the place and you may feel the resistence to fight against obligations and duties. However, you also have tenacity and the power and will to get through any issues you now encounter.

Around June 21, Mars enters Gemini while the Sun enters Cancer. Short trips mark your days.

On the same day of June 21, Mercury at 10° Cancer squares Saturn at 10° Libra while Mars at 0° Gemini is also about to square Neptune at 0° Pisces. Clearly, June 21 may become an eventful day marked by separation and violence. For some of you, there is loss of employment. You're in a sad mood.

Around June 26, the Sun at 4° Cancer squares Uranus at 4° Aries, bringing upsetting, unsettling and explosive moments. If you are born around March 11, June 12, September 13 or December 12-13, you may encounter love's sorrow.

The Sun at 6° Cancer opposes Pluto at 6° Capricorn around June 28 while Venus at 22° Gemini opposes the Moon's North Node at 22° Sagittarius. Enjoy family visits. You may also encounter a loved one from the past. Some of you may feel separated from a loved one.

2011 free monthly horoscope for July

Around July 1, the 3rd Solar Eclipse of the year takes place at 9° Cancer. This Solar Eclipse belongs to a totally new (Saros) series, 13 New South. This is a very rare event indeed as it will run from July 1, 2011 for 1200 years and will not end until 3237!

The same theme of this eclipse will occur about every 18 years. Because the influence of an eclipse lasts about 6-7 months we'll have to see what happens to find the basic meaning and theme of this new series.

However, when delineating Solar Eclipses, the brilliant and keen astrologer Bernadette Brady

2011 free monthly horoscope for August

The Sun at 9° Leo squares Jupiter at 9° Taurus around August 1. You are very confident and tend to overdo especially in financial matters. You may experience a lot of joy if you are born around January 25, February 23, March 25, April 25, May 26, June 26, July 28, August 28, September 28, October 28, November 27 or December 26.

Mercury stations around August 3 at 1° Virgo and starts its backward movement till August 27. If you are born under the zodiac signs of Gemini or Virgo or if your Ascendant is Gemini or Virgo, you better slow down a bit as things are not really going fully in your favor. You may withdraw and need some time to ponder on your own.

Around the same day of August 3, Mars enters emotional and vacillating Cancer, resulting in home-bound and domestic activities. If you need to do some home-improvements, now is the time.

Retrograde Neptune enters Aquarius again and is still in a difficult and chaotic borderline position.

Around the same day of August 5, Venus at 9° Leo squares Jupiter at 9° Taurus. Actually, because Venus is the dispositor of Jupiter (Jupiter is in Taurus which is ruled by Venus), there are financial expenses. You don't have a clear and realistic view on your possessions and may be in for a surprise.

In matters of love, you may currently see it too rosy. Love may cost you an arm and a leg ;-)

Retrograde Mercury enters playful Leo around August 8 and loves a party and some drama. Enjoy going to a theatre, a comedy or a concert. In fiery Leo, Mercury is more noisy and loves a chat.

However, because Mercury also opposes Neptune, there is likely going to be lots of miscommunication or non-communication -- possibly due to the noise. Slapstick humor works best around these days.

Between August 9-11, Mars at 4° Cancer builds up heat and tension when it first squares Uranus at 4° Aries (around August 9) and then opposes Pluto at 5° Capricorn around August 11. This is a very fanatic combination of pushing through one's religious or idealistic ideas and points of view. There is a highly explosive and aggressive atmosphere noticeable in this time frame and this combo is also related to physical injuries for lots of people. You better watch out!

The Full Moon of August 12-13 will bring some love encounters and romantic moments if you are born around February 8, March 25, May 10, June 26, August 12, September 28, November 12 or December 26.

August 14 is a lovely day if you are born around this day, April 10-11 or December 13. You are favored too if you are born around January 11, February 9-10, March 11, May 11, June 12, July 13, September 13-14, October 14 or November 13. Enjoy a party or any other festivity.

Around August 16, the Sun and Venus conjoin at 23° Leo, resulting in a powerful combination of playful love. Mercury will also conjoin Venus around August 17 and the Sun will follow immediately after it. This will be a funny time for some of you.

However, if you are born around December 30-31, February 12-13, March 29-30, May 14-15, June 30-July 1, August 16-17, October 1-2, November 16-17 or December 30-31, you better watch out for disputes that may get out of hand and/or physical injuries. There are very disruptive and challenging configurations going on, so try to keep your head cool and, above all, mind your words. It's an accident-prone period for you between August 16-18.

Venus at 29° Leo opposes Neptune at 29° Aquarius around August 21, resulting in love's sorrow and sadness. The 29 degrees often mark endings, and this will be no exception here when the planet of love at an ending degree opposes dissolving Neptune. This is a combo of farewell and unfulfilled longings towards an absent loved one.

Venus enters shy Virgo around August 22 and is in a very subordinate (and submissive) position.

The Sun at 29° Leo opposes Neptune at 29° Aquarius around August 23 just before it will enter Virgo on the same day. Someone is absent (often a male person because of the Sun).

Around August 25, Mars at 14° Cancer squares Saturn at 14° Libra signifying emotional and upsetting moments of anger.

Mercury stations around August 27 at 18° Leo; ready to move forward again. The silence is over and your mind will clear up. However, if you are born around this day, January 24, February 22, March 24, April 25, May 26, June 25, July 27, September 27, October 27, November 26 or December 25-26, you may be in for unexpected surprises. Don't trust any electronic gadgets or computers, nor public transportation services as there may be some limiting influences going on.

Jupiter stations at 10° Taurus around August 30 and starts its retrograde motion. If you are born under the zodiac sign of Sagittarius or if your Ascendant is Sagittarius, life may not alwyas go as smoothly during the station. You will need some more patience.

Beware of promises or expectations that may not be delivered. Things and people may seem too beautiful, too nice, too xxx (just fill in) to be true.

2011 free monthly horoscope for September

If you are born around January 24, March 9, April 24, June 10, July 27, September 12, October 27 or December 11 you will notice that this month of September 2011 will bring quite some turning points into your life, especially around September 6, 12, 19 and 24. If your natal Sun is not aspected by natal Saturn, the outcome will be auspicious. In case natal Saturn aspects your Sun, the days may become quite challenging.

We'll repeat this again below when we delinate the mentioned days.

The first week of September is rather calm for the most of us. There are only some configurations or aspects at work and they are quite positive and relate to some increased optimism and joy.

Around September 6, social Venus at 19° Virgo squares the connecting Moon's Nodes, resulting in less enjoyable social contacts. You may feel misunderstood and your social life is now at a low point. You are not really in the mood for socializing.

However, if you are born around January 24, March 9, April 24, June 10, July 27, September 12, October 27 or December 11 you are likely to experience a turning point in your life regarding relationships around September 6. If your natal Sun is not aspected by natal Saturn, the outcome will be auspicious. In case natal Saturn aspects your Sun, the day has separative influences.

Mercury at 29° Leo opposes Neptune at 29° Aquarius around September 8. We will again experience miscommunication and confusion. Beware of lies, secrets and untold information. Concentration is usually low around this time and you better wait till the fog/mist clears up and everything becomes more clear when Mercury enters its own sign Virgo on September 9.

If you are born around March 13, June 14, September 16 or December 15, expect sadness, love's sorrow and separation from loved ones around Serptember 9. The atmosphere is chilly and the focus and mindset is on illness and hospitalization.

With Mercury now in its own sign Virgo, you are realistic, discriminating and analytical in your work. After all, Virgo is not only a health-conscious zodiac sign, it's also very work-related. The daily working environment and health issues take up your mental and emotional time so that it's not the right time to focus on love.

Wait for Venus to enter Libra quite soon to become more sociable, less critical and more loveable.

Around the Full Moon of September 12, the Sun at 18° Virgo squares the Moon's Nodes. You may experience a setback, cannot unfold properly and some ego-conflicts may arise.

However, if you are born around January 24, March 9, April 24, June 10, July 27, September 12, October 27 or December 11 you are likely to experience a turning point in your life regarding relationships around this Full Moon day. If your natal Sun is not aspected by natal Saturn, the outcome will be auspicious. In case natal Saturn aspects your Sun, the day has separative influences.

September 13 brings windfalls, fortunate moments and successful endeavors if you are born around January 13, February 26, April 13, May 29, July 15, August 31, October 16 or November 30.

Venus enters its own sign Libra around September 15. The entrance results in social contacts, meetings, new encounters that may be very transformative (life-changing), impressive and even overwhelming.

This is the more so because Pluto is now at its station at 4° Capricorn and is about to turn direct again on September 16. Destiny may call and the one you may meet now, may change your life fundamentally. Signing a contract can be rewarding in case the Moon is NOT void of course.

If you are born around January 19, March 4, April 19, June 4, July 21, September 6, October 22 or December 6, the time around the Pluto station of September 16-17 may be full of dissatisfaction. For some of you, legal issues pop up, others will experience harsh disputes or health issues. Anyway, meetings may end in verbal fights. Mind your words.

Around September 17, Venus at 2° Libra opposes Uranus at 2° Aries. Mid September is marked by impressive (love) encounters, often unexpectedly. For some of you, nice presents and windfalls will occur.

If you are born around March 23, June 24, September 26 or December 25, you will enjoy some nice surprises.

However, because of the increasing intensity of Pluto during its station, too much of a good thing can be too much and when Venus at 4° Libra squares intense Pluto at 4° Capricorn around September 19, expect some scandals and outbursts of rage.

Do know that Venus and Pluto are actually opposites (Venus as the mundane ruler of Taurus and Pluto as the mundane ruler of Scorpio). When two planets that rule opposite zodiac signs clash, expect some severe issues related to the topics the planets and zodiac signs represent. Both planets are about money one way or the other as well as encounters and sex.

Because Mars enters fiery Leo around the same day of the Venus-Pluto clash around September 19, there is a highly aggressive and brutal undertone noticeable.

Compulsive-obsessive behavior is part of the picture around these days and things are out of balance. Indeed, stationing Pluto brings Venus in peaceful Libra temporarily out of balance.

Also, around the same day of September 19, Mercury at 18° Virgo squares the Moon's Nodes, resulting in worries and anxiety. There is more stress and tension while communication is blocked. These days are not good for travel/trips.

People may so easily get on your nerves now and it's best to avoid upsetting your relationships (in a large sense) by avoiding anyone around these days who make you feel uncomfortable.

However, if you are born around January 24, March 9, April 24, June 10, July 27, September 12, October 27 or December 11 you are likely to receive important news around September 19. If your natal Sun is not aspected by natal Saturn, the news message will be auspicious. In case natal Saturn aspects your Sun, the day may bring more sorrow.

The Sun enters Libra around September 23 and will re-balance the energies.

If you are born around January 24, March 9, April 24, June 10, July 27, September 12, October 27 or December 11 you may get a new job or enter new working circumstances or start new projects around September 24. If your natal Sun is not aspected by natal Saturn, the outcome will be auspicious. In case natal Saturn aspects your Sun, this day of September 24 may bring oppression and lots of resistance to overcome.

The Sun will not be able to keep energies in balance for long as the Sun will soon oppose upsetting Uranus at 2° Aries around September 26 so that there is some turmoil noticeable in your relationships (at large). You want to find balance and try to be as diplomatic as possible with the help of communicative Mercury, who also entered Libra around September 26.

Mercury is now part of the Libra stellium (together with the Sun, Saturn and Venus) and adds to the need to (re)act with diplomacy and trying to be reasonable.

Because of the Libra stellium, the focus is on all your relationships for the coming weeks. Also, if you are Pisces, Aries, Taurus or Scorpio, you are entering a more challenging period till the October 12 Full Moon during which you may experience more sorrow.

Mercury at 2° Libra opposes Uranus at 2° Libra around the New Moon of September 27. Your sharp and alert mind resolves issues and you are quick to see things through intuitively.

If you are born around these days of September 24-26, the Sun/Mercury opposition to upsetting and unsettling Uranus will mark your whole (solar return) year (from birthday to birthday) and denoting sudden upheaval and unexpected news regarding and affecting all your relationships (at large).

Note that the September 27 perigee New Moon is a SuperMoon, the first in a row till the end of the year, so that it's likely to bring more wild or extreme weather (incl. earthquakes and/or volcanic activity).

Around September 28, the Sun AND Mercury, both at 4° Libra, square Pluto at 4° Capricorn resulting in some power conflicts. Clearly, diplomacy is not always working well and ego-driven behavior disrupts the balance. There is annoyance and tunnel-vision. Someone (is it you?) wants to push his or her vision through at all cost.

The Sun and Mercury conjoin at 5° Libra around the same day of September 28. You may enjoy traveling, writing or speaking out.

If you are born around December 27, March 26, June 27 or September 29, you are likely to experience favorable news opening new doors around September 28. Especially keep an eye on auspicious news through your mobile phone or e-mails.

Venus and Saturn conjoin at 18° Libra around September 30. You have to take your responsabilities regarding your relationships and partnership. It's a good time to find out what binds you. The Venus-Saturn combo is all about the skin, masks, outer appearances, uniforms and formal beauty.

In a more challenging way, it is related to restraints, indecision and, unfortunately, separation from loved ones. Some of you may find love with a (much) older person.

Also, the Venus-Saturn conjunction may represent the 'caretaker' too and it's an aspect that is often related to helping the elderly.

2011 free monthly horoscope for October

If you are born around January 11-12, February 24-25, April 10-12, May 27-28, July 13-14, August 29-30, October 14-15 or November 28-29, the days around October 1 and 2 will be very rewarding, especially in matters of love and/or money/possessions. Sudden love encounters may result in pure bliss and happiness.

These are good days for a proposal and even a marriage may be considered. Love is all around!

However, if you are born around January 1-2, February 14-16, March 31-April 2, May 16-18, July 3-4, August 19-20, October 4-5 or November 18-19, the tension and stress is high around October 1-2. There is sudden (sad) news, news about a separation (even death belongs to the possibilities). It's an irritable time for you and you may be obliged to travel or make a short trip.

You try to resist the changes and obligations but you will have to go through it. You stick to your opinion, even if other people differ but you should also consider redefining yourself.

Mars at 8° Leo squares Jupiter at 8° Taurus around October 3, resulting in expenses and financial (and/or legal) issues. You're still too optimistic and may spend impulsively.

Around October 7, Mercury and Saturn conjoin at 19° Libra denoting a sad and/or serious mood.

There is no time for fun... It's a time of formal speeches and protocol.

However, if you are born around January 11-12, February 24-25, April 10-12, May 27-28, July 13-14, August 29-30, October 14-15 or November 28-29, auspicious news awaits you around October 7-8. Lots of insight, fortunate developments and creative ideas mark these days.

Chances are you can influence people with your way of communicating (talking, thinking,...). Expect auspicious moments and news.

Venus enters intense and passionate Scorpio around October 9. You're getting into a very sensitive and rather emotional mood now. This is a good time for creative and artistic projects (photography, painting,...).

Around October 9-10, love is more spiritual, psychic and immaterial. Your thoughts go out to someone who is absent. The days may result in a change of the place.

The apogee Full Moon of October 12 is about changing the residence, doing home improvements and/or changing the place often. This SuperMoon, like all SuperMoons, may also bring more wild or extreme weather (incl. earthquakes and/or volcanic activity) and may denote damage to buildings.

Around October 13, Mercury enters intense Scorpio while the Sun and Saturn conjoin at 20° Libra. You may think about unfulfilled plans and projects and feel limited in expressing yourself. There is a sense of loss noticeable that keeps your mind busy.

You feel a burden and are not in the mood for love. You do feel committed though.

Venus at 7° Scorpio opposes Jupiter at 7° Taurus around October 15. Any aspect between Venus and Jupiter increases your popularity, especially when your natal Sun is involved. So, if you're born around December 29, January 28, February 26, March 28, April 28, May 29, June 29, July 31, August 31, October 1, October 31, November 30 or December 29, you may feel satisfied and popular around mid October. Enjoy and socialize!

However, if you are born around January 29-30, March 15, April 30, June 16, August 2, September 18, November 2 or December 17, there is love's sorrow and dissatisfaction around October 16. You may feel rather down and inhibited. Are you rejected or missing someone?

Mercury at 6° Scorpio opposes Jupiter at 6° Taurus around October 17. There still are financial issues and you tend to be unrealistic. You cannot see things in the right proportion. Try to be moderate.

If you are born around January 29-30, March 15, April 30, June 16, August 2, September 18, November 2 or December 17, the mood is sad around October 19. You have too much on your mind and need some more distraction.

If you are born around February 5-6, March 22-23, May 7-8, July 23-24, August 9-10, September 25-26, November 9-10 or December 23-24 romance is in the air around October 22-23. It's a wonderful time to go to a concert or listen to some music together. Artistic and creative projects (photograpy, music, painting,...) score high under some auspicious configurations that are now active. Visit a photogenic scene and listen to romantic music and enjoy.

Around October 23, the Sun enters passionate Scorpio. With three bodies currently in Scorpio (the Sun, Mercury and Venus) the passion and intensity in love may just increase. This may result in more physical love, but also in more emotional ups and downs. Passion is not a linear thing, but a very winding and deep one. Beware of jealousy.

Around October 24, your (love) life may change profoundly (for the better) if you are born around February 7, March 24, May 9, June 25, August 11, September 26, November 11 or December 25. In matters of love this day may bring excitement and joyful bliss. Your creative talents may become more visible too. It's a successful day to do whatever you want; things will work out nicely.

If you are born around February 5-6, March 22-23, May 7-8, July 23-24, August 9-10, September 25-26, November 9-10 or December 23-24 you tend to talk too much around October 24. You may be more absent-minded and live in your own fantasy world.

If you are born around February 7, March 24, May 9, June 25, August 11, September 26, November 11 or December 25, the favorable configurations just go on for you around October 25. There still is lots of excitement over happy announcements and events. Lots of talks and communication is going around.

Venus at 21° Scorpio squares Mars at 21° Leo around October 27 while Mercury at 22° Scorpio too will square Mars at 22° Leo the day after, on October 28. Alas, these aspects are quite difficult the more so because they are preceded by a perigee New Moon at 3° Scorpio around October 26, denoting a major and intense turning point. Be aware that this SuperMoon, like all SuperMoons, may also bring more wild or extreme weather (incl. earthquakes and/or volcanic activity).

October 26-31 are marked by disputes, arguments and separation from loved ones.

Women should particularly pay attention who they encounter late October as the configurations are also related to rape and sexual harassment. Also, there is rivalry in love and you may not be alone in loving your partner.

Around October 29, the Sun at 5° Scorpio opposes Jupiter at 5° Taurus, bringing relief and optimism. Don't be too overconfident though as you still tend to lack a realistic view.

However, if you are born around December 27, January 26, February 24, March 26, April 26, May 28, June 27, July 29, August 29, September 29, October 29 or November 28, this day of October 29 may be a very lucky day. You may think BIG and expect positive developments!

If you are born around January 2, February 15, April 1-2, May 18, July 4, August 20, October 5 or November 19, you may be very irritated around October 30-31. You are under pressure and stress and want to quit a relationship, or get rejected and dumped yourself.

October 31 leaves you alone with unfulfilled desires and a disappointed feeling regarding your relationship(s) when Venus at 28° Scorpio squares Neptune at 28° Aquarius.

Speaking financially, your wallet may be empty too...

2011 free monthly horoscope for November

November 2011 may become an eventful, transformative and hectic month with important planetary activity going on.

If you are born around January 4-5, February 17-18, April 4-5, May 19-21, July 6-7, August 21-23, October 7-8 or November 20-22, the whole month may become quite hard physically, emotionally, or both. You may be stuck in a situation, seem not to be able to move forward and may experience plain difficult situations the severity of which also depend upon your own natal chart. There is some agony noticeable, suffering, pain or heartbreak... Be tenacious and don't give in!

This month will bring the following important configurations that we will discuss in a second:

• there are three "planetary" stations going on (Neptune, Mercury and Chiron), two of which are on a "critical" degree.
• there is a Solar Eclipse when the Moon is at its closest point to the earth (perigee).

2011 free monthly horoscope for December

December 2011 will follow the path of November with more important events to unfold because of the current ongoing and powerful planetary activity. December will bring three planetary stations and an important planetary picture that will remain active the whole month long.

Uranus and Neptune are at critical degrees the whole month long and will build a planetary picture in which the Moon's Node is involved. Because these are slow moving points, they act in the background and have no personal meaning, unless they are connected with personal planets and points in your own natal chart.

Uranus, Neptune and the Moon's Node together represent different things though. First, Uranus and Neptune are always connected with immaterial and invisible things, with digital goods, the internet and invisible energies. They are linked with the 'spiritual world' and a mental state.

Second, this combo is related to death(s) and a state of unconsciousness. Whenever the Moon's Nodes blend with both planets, it increases the odds of lots of people passing away around the same time for whatever reason (natural or other disasters, big accidents, calamities, massacres etc.).

Third, the Uranus/Neptune combo is also related to floods and inundations, especially because they are at critical degrees representing inundations.

We expect the three meanings to mark this month.

Venus, planet of love, and Pluto, planet of power, conjoin at 6° Capricorn around December 1, reflecting the power of love.

Love is now measured by your bank account, status and possessions.

Mercury is conjunct the Moon's North Node around December 2 at 14° Sagittarius. Documents and information will become public and the word is out. If you are born around March 5, June 5, September 7 or December 6, there is nervousness around. It's a busy time with lots of discussions and formalities. Your thoughts may be on people who passed away or on plans that cannot be carried out for some reason.
