Sagittarius (Nov 22-Dec 21)

In January, September and November this year the greater benefic Jupiter forms a helpful angle to Saturn. This promises great rewards linked to your career aspirations. Now is the time to embark on a well thought out strategy to increase your popularity and gain the recognition you have worked for over recent years. This can prove to be the peak years in your career so make the most of it.

In March, May and November Jupiter makes a helpful link to Uranus. This can bring opportunities on a silver platter to secure financial stability for the rest of your life. You may choose to go into a different field altogether. You could even invent something that can be sold internationally. Put your good ideas into action and trust in the future with all your heart.

In November Saturn opposes Uranus which will prove to be a very challenging time when you may feel like going and living in a cave for awhile, just to get away from the hustle and bustle of modern life. Being rebellious unfortunately will not help your situation, but rather it may be just a good time to lay low for awhile, just to give yourself some much needed breathing space. Your goals may be thwarted so just give this area a rest for now.

During the next twelve months, the ‘greater benefic’ Jupiter, and your ruling planet) will occupy your sector of income, earnings and the things you value, and will go into retrograde (backwards) phase for five months between May and early September. You have a wonderful opportunity to increase your income and earnings to an amazing degree. Sometimes this can even indicate wealth. It all depends on what you value and how much effort you want to apply to achieve what you want. The ownership of items will bring pleasure and happiness.

Saturn the taskmaster of the zodiac will continue to occupy your sector of status, career and how you are seen in the eyes of the world, up until November of next year. Saturn however, will be in retrograde motion (backwards) between January and April. Some people achieve their life-long ambitions at this time if they have put in the hard yards and not cut any corners to get there. Some however, lose their position because they refused to follow the rules and do things by the book. Reaping the rewards of your efforts will only happen if you have consistently proven that you are someone who can be relied upon to get the job done. During the retrograde phase it may become apparent that you have wasted your time and attention to reach the top rung of the ladder because you did not follow your true calling in life. During the direct phase (between May and the end of the year) it will be obvious that you are the one who should be in a position of trust and authority.

Uranus, the planet of change, will continue to occupy your sector of home and family matters and your early upbringing during which time he will be in retrograde phase between late June and late November 2008. Home and family matters are rarely of any real stability during this long range transit. Changes can occur suddenly and disrupt your current plans and family arrangements. During the retrograde phase you may have to deal with some urgent situations on the home front without even blinking. During the direct phase (January to June and again late November to June next year) you can take charge of your home and family by creating some exciting changes to this area such as buying electronic equipment, computers and other modern technological items for the home.

Neptune the planet of mystery, will continue to occupy your sector of communications, siblings, neighbors and short distance travel, though will go into retrograde (backwards) phase between late May and up to the end of October this year. This can be an ideal time to write that novel as your imagination will be in full swing and open to all manner of imagery. Alternatively you may find that your mind is easily distracted and concentration to detail is less than it used to be. During the retrograde phase you can dig into your subconscious and unravel some of the confusion that has been there for way too long. During the direct phase (January to May and November to December) your intuition will guide you towards understanding that real and imaginary ideas are both necessary concepts to make full use of your potential.

Pluto, which is your co-ruling planet and the transformer of the zodiac will now occupy your sector of income, earnings and the things that are of value to you, (with the exception of a retrograde phase back into your own sign and sector of self and how you relate to others between mid June and late November). There can be a transformation of this area in very significant ways. You may decide that you want to own and control everything your heart desires. This may be easy and prove very rewarding, however it may lead to a possessive attitude to your belongings where you are unable to share what you have with others. During the retrograde phase what you value may change overnight and things may be taken from you beyond your control. During the direct phase (January to March 2008 and again from September to the end of the year) brings a new focus on what is profoundly important and helps you to understand that ownership does not necessarily bring control or ultimate happiness.

Gossip from the Wharf
"If you believe these - I have lands in Rhydin to sell you"
by The Wharf Crones - Matty and Pearl

All gossip that comes in through the port, and places least expected,  you can be sure that Matty and Pearl know every little tidbit and then some added. Embellishing is a way of life to make the tale far more colorful. If something is not certain nor clear, it is easy to fill in those gaps; there is nothing like assuming. They will make sure all gossip gets around come rain or shine and the sharing of a tea biscuit. There is a place for Drama Queens.
