As 2011 begins, Jupiter is still in Pisces and your tenth house until January 22nd when he moves into Aries and your eleventh house. Normally, Jupiter spends about 13 months in each zodiac sign, but this year it is a bit different. Jupiter flies through Aries at mach speed and then moves into Taurus and your twelfth house on June 4th where he will stay for the rest of this year.
In Pisces, Jupiter focuses on kindness, compassion, charity, emotional well-
For Gemini, this occurs in your tenth house of professional goals and aspirations, leadership, public reputation, and success. Your professional goals and public life are blessed. With Pisces involved, you could find that careers involving bureaucracies, large corporations, government agencies, hospitals, prisons, and/or charities are especially blessed by Jupiter’s visit through tenth house Pisces. You could also find that following your spiritual path, working in the mental health industry, and/or careers that involve helping others to overcome their demons prove to be quite fulfilling. Regardless of whatever industry you work in, Jupiter will do his best to bless your goals and to make it a little easier to succeed. There will be times when other planets clash with Jupiter and cause bigger than normal problems in your professional life, but overall, Jupiter is working to bring joy, good luck, and abundance to your professional and public goals.
In Aries, Jupiter embraces Aries’ pioneering spirit, enthusiasm, fiery passion, and willingness to compete for the sheer entertainment of it. Unlike Aquarius’ teamwork approach to life, Aries is all about racing to the top and being number one. Aries is generous, boisterous, and charming. The competitive nature is not a selfish or mean energy, but a childlike “last one there’s a rotten egg!” type of playful energy. Jupiter can have great fun bringing more of this optimistic can-
For Gemini, it happens in your eleventh house of friends, teams, clubs, committees, professional associations, networking, and the Internet. While in Pisces, Jupiter was focused more on being kind and cooperative with your teammates and business colleagues. Now, with Jupiter in Aries, you are feeling more competitive, more enthusiastic, and/or more entrepreneurial. You could feel more athletic and join a local team for fun and exercise, launch a web-
In Taurus, Jupiter helps to expand Taurus’ love of financial security, materialism, comfort, status, self-

Saturn creates our personal challenges and “tough love” learning experiences. He usually spends about two and a half years in each zodiac sign. His job is to create learning experiences that are often uncomfortable but ultimately quite meaningful. Saturn also rules over karma, cause and effect, ethics, and our sense of civic duty. Therefore, it is not only important that we learn our life lessons well, but that we also conduct ourselves with honor and integrity while going through these challenges. If we stay out of trouble, behave ethically, buckle down, and learn our lessons well, then Saturn rewards us with a gift just before he leaves that zodiac sign. For example, if Saturn were traveling through the area of our charts that deals with professionalism, leadership, and success, then he would teach us some tough lessons about those concepts. Then, if we learned our lessons and we behaved ourselves while doing so, Saturn would reward us with a job promotion, professional kudos, public recognition, etc. We would be better at our jobs, better at leading our companies and communities, and/or we would be better at marketing and advertising ourselves. If on the other hand, we did not learn our lessons, or we were unethical, blamed others for our problems, cheated, lied, etc then Saturn would simply move on to the next zodiac sign and we would have nothing to show for all the drama and trouble that we had just endured. Saturn gets a bad reputation because many people think he is simply mean for the heck of it, when in actuality, he is like a “tough love” parent forcing us to grow up and act like a responsible adult. Might not be very fun, but the rewards are well worth it.
As 2011 begins, Saturn is still in Libra and your fifth house where he will remain until October of 2012.
While in Libra, Saturn focuses on our partnerships. Libra rules over marriage, best friends, business partnerships, and competitors (think yin-
For Gemini, hosting Saturn in fifth house Libra could be tough on you. The fifth house governs personal pleasure, romance, playtime, pets, children, hobbies, creative talents, luxury, and happiness. With Libra involved, Saturn could be challenging your love life, your ability to hang out with a best friend, or a business partnership involving “happiness” industries (music, theater, vacations, matchmaking, pet care, fine dining, etc). A competitor could challenge you to the point that you do not feel okay giving yourself permission to take time off to relax. You and your loved ones could have trouble finding time to laugh and play together. The overall focus is always about your ability to feel good and to be happy. Do you play enough? Can you afford the luxury items that you and your loved ones want? Are you able to take enough vacation time? Do you appreciate life’s blessings? Do you allow your creative and playful side out enough? Since Gemini is one of the most playful and fun signs of the zodiac, you might find that Saturn wants you to think more about the ideas of “work first, play second”. Or maybe Saturn will push you towards turning a favorite hobby or pastime into an actual career. You could also find Saturn teaching you life lessons about pets, children and “parenting”. Regardless of how Saturn decides to provide “learning experiences” in your fifth house, you can guarantee that your overall happiness will be a major factor.
Uranus is the eccentric genius, rebellious teenager, and social networking guru of the zodiac. He usually spends about 7 years in each zodiac sign. He rules over friends, teams, clubs, committees, professional associations, networking, science (interconnectivity), electricity, and the Internet. He can bring teamwork, friendships, networking, and a sense of belonging to something bigger than yourself into your life. He can also bring stubbornness, eccentricity, rebellion, and perversity. This is because at his core, he is trying to convince us to be our unique individual selves but also to be a great team player. Thus, like a teenager, he is trying to find himself while being very susceptible to peer pressure. Those who master Uranus’ teachings often make charming and charismatic leaders. Uranus also encourages us to think outside the box and brings a certain eclectic brilliance into our lives. Like the eccentric genius and the rebellious teenager, he brings pleasant surprises and unexpected chaos. Uranus promotes humanitarian ideals like brotherhood, “all for one and one for all”, and “united we stand, divided we fall.” He is not asking us to be sheeple, following the crowd mentality with blind faith. He is asking us to know our unique gifts and to be strong enough in our self-
As 2011 begins, Uranus is still in Pisces and your tenth house until March 12th when he moves into Aries and your eleventh house where he will stay for the next few years.
There are zodiac signs where Uranus shines and is emboldened to bring about wonderful brotherly love and incredible scientific advances, like when he was in his own zodiac sign, Aquarius from the middle of 1995 until the early part of 2003. While there, the everyday use of the Internet took root and blossomed. Prior to that, he was in Capricorn building the systems of the Internet. Yes, the Internet has been around for a long time, but it was during the time that the planet in charge of the Internet was traveling through the zodiac sign in charge of the Internet, that the Internet seriously began to grow and expand into the incredible tool that it is today.
In Pisces, Uranus is somewhat subdued. Pisces rules over the hidden forces that work behind the scenes. Things like mental health, secrets, self-
For Gemini, this has been occurring in your tenth house of professional goals and aspirations, leadership, public reputation, and success. Hosting Uranus in this area of your life can be both annoying and exhilarating. If you work in industries involving telecommunications, Internet technologies, science, web hosting, handheld electronic devices, and cell phone technology, you have probably found this to be an excellent energy to host in your professional success sector. If your job requires teamwork, social networking, large group activities, committees, professional associations, etc, then you probably found it much easier to get these groups working together towards a common goal. At times, bosses, authority figures, and/or your own leadership style may have been chaotic and uncertain, but overall, things should have been more enthusiastic and brainstorming solutions should have been a bit easier. You could also have found yourself longing to change jobs or maybe you did jump around from job to job looking for something more meaningful and more inline with your authentic self. You could be in the mood to take on more leadership roles or you could feel repressed by current leadership and want to break free and do your own thing professionally. There is the chance for greatness and for a fall from grace. You have to be careful how you handle yourself so that you do not create your own professional demise. If negativity does happen, it will probably come unexpectedly. However, if you can stay grounded, focused, and avoid risky or unplanned emotional outbursts, you should be able to tap into Uranus’ brilliant brainstorming and teamwork skills.
Once Uranus moves into Aries, he can have some fun. Aries is innovative, entrepreneurial, competitive, and loves being the first one to come up with a new idea. Uranus is in love with new technology, teamwork, being unique while being part of something bigger than one’s self, and a brainstorming genius. Both are extroverted, social, and stubborn. Both are clever, fast, and pride themselves on their uniqueness. Last summer, Uranus enjoyed a lovely visit into Aries and then spent the fall and winter months backtracking through Pisces. This spring, he will formally move into Aries where he will remain for the next few years. He was like a teenager visiting a college campus before moving there permanently during the college years. This first visit into Aries was exhilarating and then going back into Pisces feels stiff and too confining before he makes the official move to Aries. Globally, we will probably see the Internet and new technology take off like crazy. It will be interesting to see how the planet of teamwork and brotherly love affects the world while in the zodiac sign of warriors and “me first!” Does “me” or “we” prevail?
For Gemini, Uranus will be in your eleventh house of friendships, teams, clubs, committees, professional associations, networking, science, interconnectivity, and the Internet. Uranus rules over this area of the zodiac. He is like a king in his own country, stronger than anywhere else. He encourages you to socialize and to join teams, clubs, committees, etc. However, he can also encourage you to push away from friends and colleagues that are not good for you. If a group is too repressive, too controlling, too much into the sheeple mentality, then Uranus is going to want you to break free from those groups. Uranus does not want you to befriend others and join groups at any cost, but to be true to yourself, true to your authentic real personality, AND to also be a good team player. You are not meant to be a sell-

As 2011 begins, Neptune is still in Aquarius and your ninth house. However, from April 4th through August 4th he will be making a preview visit into Pisces and your tenth house.
In Aquarius, Neptune has been behaving in sort of a yin-

In Pisces, Neptune is literally at home. Neptune rules over Pisces and the concepts of mental health, attitudes, addictions, self-
For Gemini, Neptune will be in your tenth house of professional goals and aspirations, leadership, public reputation, and success. When things are going well, Neptune will magically help your career and when things are not going well, Neptune will muddy the waters and make it very difficult to figure out which direction you should be heading in. It is somewhat like your professional path is a maze or labyrinth and sometimes Neptune helps you to intuitively “know” which way to go. And at other times, Neptune has you crashing into brick walls and running down dead ends. Following a spiritual path, a path of compassion and heart, etc can help. If you are drawn to psychology or any kind of career that helps others to overcome their personal demons, that could help you to not suffer as much from Neptune’s travels through this area of your chart. On the other hand, Neptune can also cause you to constantly daydream, worry, and wonder about what professional path you will take, should take, could take, etc. Being dreamy while in a creative, artistic, or musical industry is not that bad. Being dreamy in a more traditional career could be a problem. Maybe the answer is to spend the next few years praying, meditating, etc to find the right professional path for you. I am not saying you should be into mumbo-
Pluto psychoanalyzes, empowers, and/or heals whatever he touches. He has an uneven pattern and can spend as little as 13 years or as much as 32 years in any given zodiac sign. His job is to uncover the hidden truths within our lives and to either empower us with passion and self-
As 2011 begins, Pluto is still in Capricorn and your eighth house. He moved into this area of your life in 2008 and will stay here until January 2024.
In Capricorn, Pluto focuses on doing the right thing because it is the right thing to do. Capricorn rules over professionalism, leadership, goals and aspirations, success, civic duty, public recognition, and earning the respect of our peers. Remember earlier when we talked about Saturn and how he teaches us about karma, cause and effect, and “tough love” style life lessons. Saturn rules Capricorn and so Capricorn embraces the concepts of “tough love”, doing one’s civic duty, and ideas like “If I don’t take care of this, who will?” When in Sagittarius, Pluto promoted exploring the world and all of the various cultures, peoples, religions, etc. Sagittarius promoted freedom to explore and to dabble in various religious and cultural teachings. The idea that all religions are more alike than different and therefore we can pick and chose bits and pieces of which ones we like is a very Sagittarian approach to religion and spirituality. We focused on global travel, politics, and mass media. Pluto had a good time digging deep down into the truth about our political beliefs, our religious practices, our international diplomacy, and such. Now, he is focusing on the business systems, ethics, integrity, and professionalism of our world. Do the large corporations follow ethical business practices? Do we have integrity in our government agencies? Do we as individuals, as communities, as states, as countries… do we take on a parental role and look out for those in need or do we focus on our own personal agendas? It may not feel like a lot of fun, but this is the perfect energy for fixing the economic system, the environmental policies, the human rights violations, the health care system, welfare programs, voting fraud, etc. Big systems that are broken can be fixed, healed, restructured, and/or demolished in a smart and tenacious manner. We have the planet of passion, truth, and rebirth focused on the zodiac sign of responsibility, integrity, and leadership.
For Gemini, Pluto is in your eighth house of trust and sharing, intimacy, fidelity, loyalty, joint finances, joint ventures, investments, stock options, commissions, inheritances, lotteries, royalties, and other forms of profit sharing. Pluto rules over trust and sharing (sex and joint finances) and Capricorn rules over integrity and success. With Pluto in Capricorn in your eighth house of trust and sharing, you have a king in his own castle. Pluto is doubly strong here. You have the planet of "our money and our bodies" in the house of "our money and our bodies" in the zodiac sign of "professionalism and integrity." This makes it an amazingly strong energy for romantic commitments that you can fully trust to be loyal and respectful towards you. It is also an incredibly profitable and passionate energy to have for your professional use. Because Capricorn is involved, you do have to work, the money probably will not come from lotteries or inheritances. However, you have the planet of passion and hidden resources blessing your commissions, royalties, stock options, and profit sharing sector, so your career and finances should really benefit from Pluto's new placement in your chart. It may seem like you just "know" where to find money and professional resources. And your love life should benefit from an almost psychic ability to "know" whom to trust with your heart.
