October 1 Birthday Horoscope

The Year Ahead

Forecast for October 2006-October 2007

The Sun sits at the midpoint between Venus and Mars in your Solar Return, suggesting that personal magnetism runs very high this year. This has the potential for being an especially creative year. For some, it can be procreative! Your love life will figure prominently.

However, the Sun is also in dynamic aspect to Saturn, the planet of responsibility and discipline. You‘ll be working hard at disciplining yourself this year. As you face obstacles to your goals, you begin to see the tools with which you have to overcome them. A dose of realism may seem forced upon you from time to time this year, but your efforts to measure up to expectations can ultimately increase your confidence in your ability to be responsible for yourself. You are likely to have new or increased responsibilities this year, and it might take some time to get adjusted to them. The need to re-structure and re-organize your life will be apparent at some point during this period of your life. You may lose yourself in work and responsibilities and take yourself too seriously! As long as you work hard, but take time for relaxation and meditation as well, there is nothing to worry about. Most commonly, this influence suggests that a period of the year ahead may be felt to be physically draining and frustrating. When you begin to feel this influence, all you need to do is take a step back, avoid worrying about what others think of you, and simply apply yourself to your work and duties until it passes. Recognize that it is unlikely that life itself, and circumstances in your life, are challenging. You are challenging yourself by expecting too much. Your ego may be a little frail at this point, and, as a result, you may be harder on yourself than you need be. Much can be accomplished this year. Although you may not see immediate results for your efforts, important groundwork can be laid for the future.

Mars trines Neptune around the time of your birthday this year, energizing the year ahead with increased creativity. You are more inclined to act upon your intuition, your sexual fantasies may be especially strong, and your creative impulses are potent. This aspect helps to soften your disposition, smoothing out some of the tension in your life. At times, you will have a "what will be, will be" attitude. This influence favors dancing, swimming, photography, arts, and entertainment. If you are an artist, this could be an especially inspired, imaginative, and productive year. Pay attention to your gut feelings, which will, more often than not, give you valuable information. If you are involved in sales, you will be able to tune into your client's inner desires and motivations.

A Venus-Jupiter-Neptune configuration also suggests creativity and imagination brought to social relationships and finances. The shadow side of this energy, however, is a tendency to borrow from your future due to inflated optimism. You need to be careful of overindulgence in all of the pleasures in life. As well, try to keep your expectations realistic, although that could be hard for you to do under these influences. Be wary of any "get rich quick" schemes, and try to tame your tendency to overspend.
