Although these are exciting times for you, you are under considerable psychological pressure. This could have a lot to do with your insistence on having the space to pursue your creative pursuits, backed up by an ideological conviction that everyone should be free to do what they want. Great ideal, but people tend to get a bit upset when it is put into practice.

At any rate it is probably time to apply the brakes and withdraw from confrontations that threaten your future, or creative projects that threaten your purse, or love affairs that threaten your stability. It can be a wonderful time for travel and fun, but it pays to respect limits – as friends and your social circle are constantly reminding you. You may feel that you are fully justified in what you do, and that other people are just envious and trying to spoil the fun, but the truth is probably somewhere in between.

The next few months you will discover that there is unfinished business at home and in the family that needs your attention and your compassion. Only when this has been attended to can you get back to your personal agenda of self-realization, and this will probably not happen until the spring of next year.

On September 9th your sign ruler Jupiter retrogrades back into Pisces, where it will be until the end of January 2011. This means that a period of exciting expansion and liberation, that began back in June, needs to be put on hold, whilst you return to sort out issues connected with home and family, that you had been working on earlier but left incomplete.

Back in Pisces, Jupiter again conjoins Uranus, on the 19th, which is a rare event that repeats itself in a series of 3 conjunctions every 13 years. This is an incredibly inspiring and creative combination which evokes magnificent dreams of revolution and change. Part of this dream involves self-realization and independence. But there is also a greater vision for the greater good, especially ecologically. Or perhaps a dream of how you can change things in relation to your family. Over the next four or five months you can put into motion all those things you are tired of and want to do differently.

A few days before the full moon on September 23rd increased restlessness can bring travel or a move. This is a good time to make changes in your career, perhaps because of a strong awareness of what the family wants at this time. More space and freedom is a good idea. The last week of the month can bring a crisis in your social life, perhaps because of leadership battles. Weak people tend to disappear from your life at this time.

After a difficult but constructive year in 2008, the coming year promises to be a wild ride on the swings and roundabouts of hopes and dreams. On the very last days of 2008 Mercury conjoins Jupiter . which effectively brings partnership issues to the fore, and in a very positive way. With Jupiter entering Aquarius on January 5th, and Mercury making three conjunctions with Jupiter, the last one on February 24th at 11 degrees Aquarius also involving Mars, then partnership bonds will be cemented at this time... and it is good for children too. What an exciting month this will be! It is almost sure to bring travel, or electrifying developments in regard to personal development and education . a brilliant time for expanding networks. In May, June and July, Jupiter . the ruler of Sagittarius . makes its long-lasting conjunction with Neptune, and this brings a period of euphoria as you get swept up in a movement that is like a mass wave of emotion. It will feel like being on a balloon or a spaceship, and the important thing with this kind of travel is knowing how to come down to earth again. Jupiter goes retrograde and catches up with Neptune again just before Christmas, so the whole year will be flavored with lofty ideals connected with creativity, music, film, humanitarian and ecological ventures. This will later be known as the Obama effect.

Your sign ruler Jupiter moves into Pisces on January 18th when it immediately connects with Pluto in Capricorn, suggesting that this is an empowering time for you, when you eliminate unrealistic dreams on the one hand, and implement practical changes . especially in home and family matters . on the other. Economic reform is much on your mind, and there are ways of cutting back on expenses and making sensible investments in January. When Jupiter joins Uranus in Aries in June, the fun really starts. This is an incredibly exhilarating period for you, when you are willing to take some amazing risks and gamble on getting things right. It is all about spontaneous action, but there are serious questions about your judgment and you really need to avoid getting into financial troubles. Travel will probably on the cards, and the urge to express freedom and do exactly what you want is irresistible. However, with Jupiter returning to Pisces, together with Uranus, from September onwards, the focus is back on the home, where deep and satisfying changes take place in the autumn period. For some the year is about developments with children, and for others visionary ideals will be implemented in connection with the home and environment.
