Aries
A pair of eclipses will add a lot of intensity to the week, especially as they fall on opposite sides of the sky and therefore in opposition. The week begins with Monday’s lunar eclipse in an adventurous part of your chart, which is likely to evoke a sense of wanderlust and a severe case of Mondayitis, as well as challenging your excuses. However, it’s the much rarer Venus eclipse on Wednesday that brings heart and reality together, in an area of your chart where you’re most able to find your voice. It is words or ideas that you’ve been suppressing that will suddenly find their time. In all matters it’s communication that dominates this week, leading the way into a new era of connecting. Eclipse energy might stir things up and get the ball rolling, but it’s up to you to run with this.
Taurus
With a lunar eclipse in your financial sector on Monday and a much rarer Venus eclipse in your income sector on Wednesday will see money matters dominate. Monday’s lunar eclipse is likely to bring things on both the income and financial fronts to a head, while Wednesday’s Venus eclipse is likely to act as a trigger or a catalyst, just 6 days before lucky Jupiter is due to reach your income sector. Yet while money matters are likely to dominate this is not the only show in town, with Jupiter’s last week in your sign all about taking ownership of the future and making sure that in all aspects of your life that you’re on the path you want to continue on. With the door open to second chances on the income and work fronts and your romantic and creative passions returning, anything is possible.
Gemini
At some point during your birthday month you’ll be confronted by a Full Moon that challenges your intentions for your new solar year and provides the wakeup call that makes sure you’re not asleep at the wheel, moving into your new solar year on autopilot. That Full Moon falls on Monday, except instead of an ordinary Full Moon this is a lunar eclipse, with the messages it brings much louder and harder to ignore. This is just 2 days before Wednesday’s much rarer Venus eclipse, which sees Venus literally traverse across the Sun and the nearly 7 hours this will take your heart’s desires and your realities, as well as the past and future will all come together. With the Sun in direct and Venus in retrograde motion, all of a sudden you’re able to see where you’ve been and where you’re going.
Cancer
Just as your professional year should be slowing down, things heat up again with a lunar eclipse in your work sector on Monday. With the Moon not even returning to your work sector until the day of the eclipse, this might catch you off guard, with a need to move into the new week with an open mind, especially when it comes to work matters. The Moon will remain in your work sector until Wednesday, giving you time to work with whatever Monday’s eclipse triggers. It’s on Thursday that Mercury’s return to your sign brings the first direct planetary support you’ve had since September 2011, as well as bringing you to your smartest and most intellectually savvy point in the year. This gives you a chance to break through the nostalgia and reflective web that you’ve been enveloped in.
Leo
There is something magical in the air this week and it comes just as Jupiter is spending his last week in your career sector and when you most need to remain plugged in professionally. Yet a pair of eclipses, one in your romantic sector and the other in a social and serendipitous part of your chart won’t let you get away with life becoming all work and no play. A week of intense eclipse energy kicks off with a lunar eclipse in your romantic sector on Monday, bringing things on the personal, romantic and creative fronts to a head or to a turning or tipping point. It’s during Wednesday’s much rarer Venus eclipse that the laws of attraction and synchronicity come together, as well as the past, future and present. During both eclipses there’s a need to take your hands off the wheel.
Virgo
The week is being dominated by a pair of eclipses, something incredibly rare as a lunar and solar eclipse will always fall 2 weeks apart. You’ll get two this week because while Monday’s eclipse is a lunar eclipse, Wednesday’s eclipse is a much rarer Venus eclipse. Falling on opposite sides of the sky and with opposite agendas, this may create some complications and some work/life balance pressure. For while Monday’s lunar eclipse falls in your home and family sector, Wednesday’s Venus eclipse falls in your career sector and it puts forces on both fronts into conflict. Yet with Jupiter returning to your career sector next week finding that balance is a must, for while your professional star is on the rise, it doesn’t require the sacrifices or the all or nothing approach of the past.
Libra
Your week kicks off with a lunar eclipse in your communication sector, taking what an ordinary Full Moon will do in terms of giving you a chance to clear the air and express yourself, to a whole new level. This comes just 2 days before Wednesday’s much rarer Venus eclipse with Venus, planet of desire and your ruling planet moving across the face of the Sun, in your sector of travel, adventure, learning and discovery. This will put all your desires and realities on the same page, just 6 days before Jupiter, planet of luck is due to return to kick off your most adventurous and expansive 12 months in over a decade. Life is waking you up to what you’ve been missing out on and how bold, rich and colourful it can be. All of a sudden simply going through the motions is no longer enough.
Scorpio
Having two eclipses in one week is something unheard of, for a lunar and solar eclipse can’t fall any more nor less than 2 weeks apart and even more so when these two eclipses fall in your 2 money houses. This is putting a lot of focus on your money game this week and with so much eclipse energy, is likely to bring things to a turning or tipping point. The week begins with a lunar eclipse in your income sector, which has the power to trigger anything building or pending and can often unblock and get things moving. It’s Wednesday’s much rarer Venus eclipse in your financial sector that brings things to a major tipping point, just 6 days before Jupiter’s return kicks off your luckiest and most expansive financial year in over a decade. At the same time this is a pivotal relationship week.
Sagittarius
The halfway point of your solar year is always marked by a Full Moon in your sign, which puts the Sun on the opposite side of the sky and at the halfway point from your last solar return and your next. With the Sun and Moon in opposition this brings the wake up calls required to ensure that you’re on track and a reminder of the intentions you moved into this current solar year with. That Full Moon falls on Monday, but goes one step further to form the first lunar eclipse in 2012, with the wake up calls much louder and clearer. They have to be, for they’re not only competing with a lot of relationship focus, but a much rarer Venus eclipse in your relationship sector on Wednesday. With lucky Jupiter reaching your relationship sector next week, things reach an early tipping point.
Capricorn
The 2 eclipses likely to dominate things this week are not only on opposite sides of the sky but on opposite sides of the spectrum, in terms of the influence. The week begins with Monday’s lunar eclipse in an intuitive, reflective and internally focused area of your chart, taking the Full Moon that will always fall here during the Sun’s month long visit to your work sector to a whole new level. This is a lunar eclipse that asks you to pull back, to question a lot of your beliefs and to stop what you’re doing, step back and take time to hear yourself think. This is in complete contrast to Wednesday’s much rarer Venus eclipse, which falls in your work sector. This will bring a new level of clarity on the work front, giving you a new sense of where you’ve been and where you’re going.
Aquarius
You are experiencing the ultimate of ironies this week. After no planetary activity in either of your professional houses since last November, Mercury’s return to your work sector on Thursday will kick off the first professional planetary activity in 2012. However this comes in a week where a pair of very magical eclipses will draw your attention and focus to anything but your job. The week kicks off with a lunar eclipse in a social and serendipitous part of your chart and while a lunar eclipse will always bring the element of fate into play, this one will also unleash the laws of synchronicity. Wednesday’s much rarer Venus eclipse falls in your romantic and creative sector, just 6 days before Jupiter kicks off your luckiest year for love and for all things heart related.
Pisces
Experiencing 2 eclipses in one week is not something that you’ll see every day if at all, yet that’s what you have and it’s the fact that they fall on opposite sides of the sky that will keep you on your toes. The week kicks off with a lunar eclipse in your career sector, bringing forces or matters that have been building behind the scenes to a head or to a turning or tipping point. With Mercury returning to your work sector 3 weeks later, this will give your professional game a much needed shot in the arm. Yet just 2 days later a much rarer Venus eclipse will fall in your home and family sector, bringing the focus back to matters on the home front. Even Monday’s lunar eclipse will put direct pressure on the Sun here, bringing any work/life matters to a head, where they can be resolved.
