Career is the main headline of the month ahead. You begin the year with 60 per cent (and sometimes 70 per cent) of the planets above the horizon. Your 10th house of career is powerful all month, while your 4th house of home and family is empty (only the Moon will visit there, on the 8th and 9th). Furthermore, on the 20th you enter a yearly career peak. So, career ambitions are strong; you can safely downplay home and family issues in favour of your work. The good news is that the family itself, far from being resentful, seems supportive. Your family as a whole is more ambitious as well, and you and your family achieve much career progress this month. Only your spouse or current love seems non-supportive – perhaps even antagonistic – to career goals. Pursuing your career path seems to involve some social sacrifice this period (and in the year ahead as well).
The new Moon of the 23rd also occurs in your career house. Thus many career dilemmas will get clarified as the month progresses. Relations with bosses, elders and parents (or parent figures) will also become clearer.
Health is good this month, but rest and relax more after the 20th. You can enhance your health and energy through ankle and calf massage until the 24th and through foot massage afterwards. The good news is that health is high on your agenda until that date and you are paying attention to it. It seems that you understand that without good health career progress is not only more difficult but meaningless as well. Success is wonderful, but without health to enjoy it, there is no real satisfaction.
Venus travels with Neptune from the 12th to the 15th. The dream life will be active and you are likely to have spiritual experiences. Avoid dreaminess while driving or when working on the physical plane, however. Stay in your body. Spiritual healing will be powerful this period, and after the 24th as well.
Your finances are good this month, as they will be through until June 11. There is some financial disagreement with your spouse, partner or current love (perhaps business partners as well), but this should straighten itself out after the 24th. Your partner is also doing well, especially until the 24th. Afterwards he or she needs to work harder to achieve financial goals.
Love is being tested all year. It is challenging. However things seem easier after the 24th than before.

On January 20 the Sun crossed over from the Western to the Eastern sector of your Horoscope. On January 27 Mercury followed suit, and thus there is a shift in the planetary power. The Eastern sector of the self (self-interest and personal independence) is now more dominant than the Western sector (the area of others, social interests and the needs of others). This represents a psychological shift in you as well. You are entering a period of greater independence. You have more control over your destiny for the next six or so months. If conditions are irksome you have greater power to change them. You need not put up with them or adapt to them. Other people are always important, but your happiness doesn’t really depend on them now – it’s up to you. So be nice to others, but please yourself. If you are happy others will be happy.
Most of the planets are still above the horizon of your chart, and you are still in a yearly career peak. Continue to focus on the career. Outer achievement is alluring now, and your drive here tends to produce success.
Continue to rest and relax more until the 19th. After that your health and energy return to their normal good levels. You can enhance your health by giving more attention to the feet (until the 8th) and to the head, face and scalp afterwards. Face and scalp massage will do wonders for you. From the 8th to the 17th Venus makes some very dynamic aspects with Uranus and Pluto. Be more mindful when driving. Avoid temper tantrums and confrontations, and avoid high risk activities. Though this transit brings career success and opportunity, it can also bring down the wrath of others, especially the spouse or current love. You seem in a more rebellious kind of mood during this period, and more willing to take risks with your body.
Love is stormy from the 8th to the 17th. Weak relationships can break up. You need more patience with your current love and with friends in general.
Finances are good. Until the 14th, money comes from your career, thanks to your good reputation or from pay rises. Parents or parent figures (also bosses) are financially supportive. After the 14th, friends and social connections seem important financially. Follow your financial intuition after the 14th. Remember to keep up to date with the latest technology, too.

The planetary momentum has been overwhelmingly forward for the past few months, so progress has been rapid. Things got done quickly (and we rarely appreciate this until we experience glitches). In January all the planets were in forward motion until the 24th. In February 90 per cent of the planets were forward until the 6th, and 80 per cent of them then after. This month, 80 per cent are moving forward until the 11th, and 70 per cent thereafter. Slowly but surely retrograde activity has been increasing. It is still at tolerable levels, but things are slowing down. Taureans tend to be patient people so this is nothing you can’t handle. You just need to be more perfect in all that you do: spend more time in the beginning and get things right, and this will save a lot of heartache and delays later on.
Mars has been retrograde since January 24. He is your spiritual planet. His retrograde motion at this time is very significant as this is a highly spiritual month. Your spiritual 12th house is the strongest in the Horoscope. Thus you are experiencing many spiritual/supernatural phenomena now – prophetic and revelatory dreams, synchronistic kinds of experiences, unexplainable coincidences and enhanced extrasensory perception. But Mars retrograde suggests that you need to verify your intuition and spiritual messages. They might not mean what you think. Also it is not advisable now to make dramatic changes to your spiritual practice. Wait until Mars goes forward next month (April 11).
Mercury goes retrograde on the 12th until the end of the month. So many problems in life – problems with friends, your spouse and the children – are due to miscommunication and misunderstanding. People do not understand you properly and vice versa. Now with your communication planet going retrograde, you need to be even more careful. A little more care in the beginning will save many a hurt feeling and emotional explosion later on. This is especially so when communicating with children or youngsters in your life. Though you are lucky in financial matters this year, with Mercury being your money planet this period is not especially great for speculations.
The retrograde of Saturn (which began on February 7) suggests more caution in foreign travel. It is best to avoid it if possible, but if you must travel allow more time and insure your tickets. Protect yourself. Students need to be more cautious about making important educational changes now. Study things further.
Venus, the ruler of your Horoscope, crosses the Ascendant on the 5th, heralding a happy transit. You look great and attract the opposite sex. You have a great sense of style and this is a good time to purchase clothing, accessories or objects of beauty. Venus travels with Jupiter from the 11th to the 14th and this brings luck in speculations, opportunities to travel, and financial abundance.
