General overview: Virgo (August 23 - September 22)

2017 was not the easiest year for you, because the erratic energy made it very hard to plan ahead or maintain a sense of order. 

2018 will have a whole different energy flowing through - on the one hand you will need to embrace new ways of pursuing things, but on the other hand there is a more consistent flow to play with that can help you to build your way up methodically. 

Home and family life will still feel a little challenging for the first part of the year as you build and renovate your foundation areas to support your growing needs and from November 2018 you will start seeing the results of the hard work you have put in and hopefully start to reap the rewards. 

From May – November 2018 you will have the opportunity to break new ground and take on new opportunities. 

This may require joining forces with someone else or investing in something important that can help to open new doors for you.

Love and relationships

It is not about quantity, and more about quality as the serious energy of Saturn pushes you to take your significant relationships more seriously. 

There may also be more responsibility thrown into the mix as children may play a strong role in some way. 

The Mars retrograde between 27/6 -28/8 may stir a few things up as this energy may push you to look back and reassess a few things to see that you are in fact moving in the right direction. 

This can also be a time where a certain person may return into your life and stir things up a bit. 

The eclipses play a significant role in illuminating certain friendships and relationships from a deeper perspective firstly around the end of Jan and mid Feb and then again from mid July to mid August. 

Jupiter moves into the house of home and family from November 2018 and will stay around for most of 2019 opening up new doors of opportunities and expansion in this area.

Work and money

2018 is a wild card year as old support systems start to fall away and new opportunities start to reveal themselves. 

You need to take a few calculated risks to help you move forward. You may get pushed out of your comfort zone as job opportunities may take you further afield. 

The good news is that with Saturn moving into the sign of Capricorn this year, intuitive risks taken can pay off for the long run if you do the methodical foundation work thoroughly. 

An unexpected source may want to invest in you – particularly in the area of training, workshops or online communication work. The Venus retrograde from 5/10 -16/11 could be a time to work more independently and not rely so heavily on others as plans may fall through or not quite go the way you planned. 

This could also be a time where an old connection may re-contact you out of the blue. So the bottom line is to keep an open mind, work consistently towards your goal and don`t let your over analytical mind stop the natural flow of things.
