Sun Enters Sagittarius 2013: Forecast for the Year Ahead

Sagittarius, The Archer
November 22 to December 22

Modality: Mutable
Element: Fire
Ruler: Jupiter

Keywords: Optimistic, adventurous, independent, restless, enthusiastic, careless

As a Sagittarius you are optimistic and enthusiastic, as well as an adventurous explorer. You enjoy searching for knowledge and truth, whether by physical travel or through books. Because you search for truth and justice, however, you can be at times too honest and forget your tact. Your ruling planet of Jupiter encourages your restless spirit, and helps you to often land on your feet.

Sagittarians are independent, which can make finding a lasting relationship a challenge, since you are adept at playing the field. You could find your soul mate later in life, or not at all; just be sure your mate understands your need for adventure. You could do well with a Gemini or another fire sign, but a relationship with a Virgo or Pisces has the potential to be difficult. Your family is near and dear to you, and though you are independent, like best to be at home and comfortable.

When it comes to careers, Sagittarians do well in service to others and enjoy a stable daily routine; once you’ve found a job that provides both, you are likely to stay put for years to come. As far as money goes, it is either feast or famine; you waver between being frugal and being extravagant, and must learn to be cautious regarding spending and saving habits.

You are interested in learning about others and, in turn, yourself.

For the year ahead:

Affirmation: Broaden your horizons—but stoke the home fires first!

• With your planetary ruler Jupiter in Cancer (your eighth house of reincarnation) until the middle of June 2014, you can anticipate a boost in your bank account—though it can also increase spending. Be careful with your finances, and you should come out on top. This transit is a good time to review or re-evaluate your budget and spending habits. Jupiter then moves into your solar ninth house of knowledge and travel for the remainder of 2014, where you can expect new opportunities for learning and long-distance connections.
• Uranus continues its transit through Aries (where it will remain until 2018). This long-term transit impacts your social life, with many opportunities for friends, family, and leisure.
• Saturn continues its transit of Scorpio, your twelfth house of self-renewal. Expect to examine where you’ve come from in the past seven years, as well as where you are headed in the next seven. Are you on track? Health issues, whether for yourself or for someone close, may also be brought to the forefront.
• Pluto continues to slowly advance in Capricorn (your second house). You may experience ups and downs in income, but will generally have the potential to increase your earnings so long as you are careful with budgeting.
