General overview: Aries (March 21 - April 19)

The rebellious energy of Uranus starts to shift as it heads towards the sign of Taurus in May 2018 highlighting a whole different dimension of change. 

This time the change will be more focused on your financial security and your values and areas such as land, farming and economics. 

Old structures are crumbling and it is time to focus on new ways to support yourself.

The period between January – May 2018 as well as the last part November – March 2019 will still have a very erratic and unpredictable energy flowing through. 

Change is still a strong theme particularly for the Aries people with birthdays between 14-21 April. The general focus for 2018 is about finding structures that support you for the long run.

Work, investments and financial decisions will be a strong focal point. A slow and steady approach is needed to build your way up. By November 2018 you may find that some of the hard work you do this year will offer you more opportunities to expand your horizons in 2019.

Love and relationships

The past few years have had such an erratic energy, that the theme of love may be constantly shifting as you try to find solid ground. 

The good news though is that “Sturdy Saturn” is moving into Capricorn over the next two years which can help you to create a more regulated pace which can be the building blocks toward something more consistent or long term. 

This, however, takes team work and commitment and some of you may still need some time to sort a few things out first, preferring flings over something more long-term.

The Venus retrograde (October – November 2018) could attract old flames or past connections. This can also be a time where you re-evaluate both your personal relationships and your financial ones.

Some lucky Aries may receive some great gifts, opportunities or inheritance from loved ones or a business partner this year. Plan, save and invest wisely.  

Work and money

Work and financial structures play a strong theme for you in 2018. You may be taking on more responsibility or find yourself in a place of authority that can feel a little daunting at first. 

However, your optimistic nature loves the idea of a challenge and you should find your rhythm as you progress throughout the year.

There may be a change of rhythm around the end of June until the end of Aug 2018 where Mars, your ruling planet goes retrograde, pushing you to reassess or realign a few things before you can pick up your pace again. 

Investments play an important role in your working decisions this year. Financial structures are changing and opportunities are presenting themselves to you.

The most important thing for you is not to act impulsively when it comesmoney-making decisions. Get all the facts on paper and read through the fine print thoroughly before signing the dotted line.
