You begin the year with mars in your sign,
so your vital energy rises.
A tendency to do too much is the main obstacle
to a peaceful time, yet excitement is high.
A healing retreat or time out, around Jan 9-11,
will keep you in form for this period and prepare you
for successes and excesses mid month.
Be kind to yourself Jan 19-20 and don't put yourself
in high stress situations.
Jan 24 to Feb 3 is a perfect opportunity to
integrate activities that support your whole
wellbeing as well as stimulate your social appetites.
Dance, music and singing will provide the right
soul food and pleasant company is likely,
through until mid Feb.
The need for spiritual bonding is strong in the last
week of Feb.
Meditation or contemplative walks or swimming or
other spiritual disciplines will receive a boost
and start to look good.
Mid March till late May demand alot of you and place
many Pisces in a new role which may tax your energy.
Move warily in these months and treat all your
tasks with deliberation,
because occasional challenges will occur.
If you try to advance too rapidly,
humiliation could follow.
rather be strong and resolute in your determination
to do everything for its own sake,
without expectations or resentment.
Learn to turn off completely when you feel
your emotions getting out of balance and try walking,
art or writing to offload your stress,
rather than talking it out on; March 18 to 25,
March 31, April 28, May 3-4, May 12 to 16 and may 27.
Consider a therapeutic, rather than heroic
approach to the challenges that face you.
Health
Pisces rules the feet, so foot-massages and
reflexology or a pedicures are always wonderful pick-me-ups.
The Path to Success and Abundance.
Your interests expand in 2000,
bringing with it numerous opportunities to expose
and promote your abilities, through the first 6 months of the year.
Some sweet success lies ahead.
Pluto is challenging you not to just unearth career goals
but to find your true vocation.
Vocation is all that you create as public life roles.
Being a parent, a partner or a natural healer,
can be vocations as surely as paid employment.
Do what you love with confidence and Venus will sweetly make it work.
Projects that started in Sept or Oct 1999,
could yield results in Jan 2000.
Your mutability ,means you can be both timid and outspoken,
modestly hidden yet self promoting.
Your natural dramatic flare can take you from
being an emotional drama queen,
to a perfectly timed performer.
Timing is important, particularly Jan 9 to 12,
when your passion for a complete clean out is best honoured.
From Jan 15-18 everything falls into place and the
temptation to drama on 19-20 makes it a good time
to tackle a big challenging task...alone!
Life will be interesting for you from Feb 5 till March 14,
maybe even a little wierd.
On Feb 15, a five month phase begins, in which
your interests and aptitudes dramatically expand.
Until mid March the direction of that growth may
be unclear, yet your best preparation period actually
comes from March 6 until March 20's full moon.
Your heart hungers for recognition of your work,
as well as being receptive to love.
Your serious efforts from mid March to late Aug
promise to answer that hunger,
as recognition is likely once you have prepared thoroughly.
These are the months worth doing well.
Your progress is assured if you consistently eliminate
waste while developing a new direction.
Don't let disappointments or lack of confidence
undercut your creative drive from March 29
till April 2.
This is just a hiccup that makes fortunate breakthroughs
of July and later months all that more sweeter.
Pisces has the strength of Water's flexibility
and emotional insight; now Pluto offers a fiery touch
that flares up to prove your worth but also
shines inwards to illuminate your fears.
For five months you are challenged to go that
little bit further to push through fears and find
the hidden treasures that you have.
During early May you will find yourself being
drawn into situations where you could be the
spokesperson or mediator or presentor or writer
or artist or inspired dreamer that has always been there.
Your vocation might not necessarily change
but you will change within it.
Pisces born in early March will be most avidly
gathering the jewels from the deep and many
will unearth a long neglected vocation.
For some this will involve children, since Taurus rules furtility.
For others a creative 'child'who wants to come out to play,
gradually becomes a new career.
These varied ingredients will slowly simmer until
mid August when you are truly 'cooked'!
When jupiter enters Gemini in July,
it's time to promote and discuss what you have developed.
In late August concerns for home and career become
super demanding at once.
This reaches its most intense point on Sept 5,then mid-Oct.
There is no instant solution and this is a juicy polarity
between Pluto who's name means 'wealth' and
Jupiter the god of excess.
It is precisely the extent of your ambitions for emotional
and financial security that press you forward.
Fortunately Neptune also adds Air sign inspiration
to fulfill your hidden dreams.
Anything can happen and many things do, in Pisean
fashion, all at once.
July 23- August 2 brings the song to its first cresendo,
and Dec 9 - 12, its second.
The plan for expansion that had gestated since March,
or the new creative project,
or the financial assistance you have awaited,
or the itchy feet that need travel,
may all receive a helpful boost un late July and Dec.
As August 29's New Moon cycle propels you onto life's stage,
your courage and latent talents come to the fore.
You find certain fears were merely a figment of your imagination.
Sept 14 is your Pisces Full Moon,
bringing you to half cycle in your lunar year and
drawing you more forcefully onto the public stage.
From Sept 29 to Oct 15, both ruling planets are
retrograde and in harmony,
inspiring flashes of inspiration about the prime
concerns in your life.
So gather these treasures and be ready for a
powerful forward drive from early Nov,
with extraordinary success in early Dec.
Fluid and flexible, you are always ready for adventures
the size of these last months of the millenium,
so enjoy the ride!
Matters of the Heart
Love and romance sing loudly for the Piscean soul
and their tune sweetens in 2000.
While Jan is driven by wordly goals,
a Venus/Saturn cycle from Jan 24 to Feb 18 makes
relationship ambitions your prime wordly concern.
From Jan 24 Venus and Saturn create not only earthy
harmonies, but also the mutual reinforcement of each
being in the others sign.
Determination to fulfil your needs and tenacity,
attracts positive help.
These raw elements must be respectfully blended.
Water and earth can build your dream house,
or they can make mud.
Follow through on what you offer,
then Venus in your friends sector will surround you
with others offering love and support.
Mars powerfully energises your desires as well.
If this sounds good it is, and only requires you add the
right amount of water.
Restrain your offers, so you can really follow through.
Become aware of the Pisces who aims to please so
promises everything, then teases by changing the rules.
Teasing or nagging will likely create mud,
instead of building foundations.
Jupiter endows you with a sense of courtly love,
yet your feelings can be so mutable that fish of either sex,
swim from role to role.
Being one minute the maiden in distress and the
next the dragon of moral righteousness makes good theatre
-but is it good loving?
Feb 1 - 3 may simply open wide the doors of the heart,
freeing a range of feelings.
Just as many Pisces love the water, yet fear
drowning or swim poorly,
Neptunes spiritual aspirations are beloved of Pisces
but often feared or neglected.
The level of surrender required to love deeply
actually challenges Jupiters desire to stay light and free.
Mars fortunately is making a 39 day passage through
your sign and your courage is high.
Being both light hearted and deeply devoted,
is true of many Pisces,
and is the best bridge of happiness in Feb.
Your dreams of romance and high emotion find an
anchor in the powerful Taurus emphasis of both
Saturn and Jupiter, from mid Feb.
Their combined influence keeps building until June
and this is a happy influence for Pisces.
Enhanced expressive skills and added depth to
sensual pleasures are just some of the rewards.
When your two ruling planets challenge each other
in the first half of March,
any personal myths about the partner you have,
the partner you 'cant find' or 'dont want'
or the potential partners you cant choose between,
are likely to get catapulted onto center stage.
You are in a six year cycle in which both Neptune and Uranus
occupy your solar sector of dreams.
Dreams of freedom and maximising joyful times and
visions of splendid love that seems sorely out of reach
my be part of your inner domain.
The Aquarian urge for freedom mixes strangely with the Piscean
'urge to merge' and exposes more sharply your natural duality.
This gives you insight into your own conflicting
currents,from March 3 - 18.
Self deception or unreal expectations are the obstacles,
while expanded perception is a likely outcome and
a bridge to understanding.
On March 18-19, Venus and Jupiter form an opportunity
aspect that puts 'the world at your feet'.
You may have to choose between two attractive options
in Piscean style and the original impulse
of your heart will lead you true.
The Pelican, depicted as your guide by inspired artists,
has an interesting esoteric legend attached to it.
She is said to feed her young from the blood of
her heart and this image is one to meditate on now.
This is no ordinary year of manifestation in which
fixed Earth Taurus throws 'jewels' your way.
Wise choosing will reflect your primal wisdom
that only 'blood of your heart' choices are good enough.
Your duality will again be invoked when a long
string of planets line-dance through Taurus
and each one 'nails' Neptune to the ground.
The lofty dreams of civilized loving and
friendship which suffers all,
may have to confront petty disagreements and rivalry,
unacknowledged power struggles abd insular self protection.
These pattermns of behaviour might be yours
or someone close but either way owning up to your
own part in them promises big rewards.
This is the yaer you can seriously benefit form dropping
old pretenses and unveiling your needs and desires.
Cautious fish self protect by keeping everyone guessing
- including themselves.
then you get caught in your own enchantment of
'ideal' love and real love can be hard to find.
The cycle of evasion and uncertainty can be most
painful for those witha Pisces Moon sign,
yet Pluto's long slow cycle in making all Pisces a
bit more moonstruck!
The following dates are impetus for the growth of
relationships and good times to dream wide awake:
March 3 - 18, March 29 to April 6 and
April 26, May 3 and 5-6.
All of these Neptune 'squares' may evoke a past
time when you faced a hard reality in mid 1998 or March/April 1999.
If so, you can reassess now with clarity.
Apart from sending octopus tendrils into old feelings,
Neptune under these apsects tend to squirm and want to escape.
These urges are best considered from May 11 when Neptune
begins a fine energy link with Mars and you are far
less likely to act out of misguided dramatics.
Then potential earthy alignments help you put down
roots and see clearly what you really value.
Then it is time to act, seizing the moment with clarity.
Though you sign prefers to evasion to confrontation
you may be on the offensive within your own circle,
when Pluto briefly stirs the pot.
Jan through to June is just preparing you for an awesome August.
July brings a change in rhythm which may unsettle you.
But this will be a busy time for you with family and home commitments.
Sept, whatever you are waiting for will unfold now.
you may find yourself being pulled in two directions at this time.
By Oct 15 you will be back on course.
Things ease now in Dec.
Jan 2001 sees you solidifying a new love or new lifestyle.
