VIRGO - The One that Waits (August 24 - September 23)

Dominant in relationships. Someone loves them right now. Always wants the last word. Caring. Smart. Loud. Loyal. Easy to talk to. Everything you ever wanted. Easy to please. The one and only.

2007 in a nutshell:
Home and family come into full focus in 2007, with Jupiter, the biggest planet in the solar system impacting that area of your chart through mid-December 2007. Along with Jupiter, Pluto the planet of extremes and ups and downs accents your family and domestic life, effectively doubling the chance for a move or major home remodel. These two players could prompt you to relocate to another community as well - maybe moving closer to family members or moving in with a family member to care for them or help them out financially.

This year's eclipses are in Virgo and Pisces, your first and seventh houses, reinforcing the relationship emphasis. A lunar eclipse in your sign March 3 brings something home to you in a major way and you could break off a long standing relationship with a friend or boyfriend in order to move on, meet new people and rid yourself of a very negative relationship. The solar eclipse in your relationship zone in your sign September 11 brings with it a new friend - someone you meet and instantly click with. It will be like meeting another you…in other words, a fab person!

Serious Saturn enters your sign September 2, bringing with it the incentive to begin a new chapter in your life. Saturn is noted for taking its time and so should you. You need most of Saturn's two year transit of your sign to fully realize your new ambitions and direction in life. And the final outcome may be far different from what you imagine today. Explore, learn and stretch yourself to discover new talents, skills and strengths. And DON'T hesitate to take risks!

Love:
Your love life benefits from Passionista Mars in Capricorn mid-January through February 25. Mars also promotes a busy social life, so even if you are hanging out with your girls, you're having fun and might not even have time or room in your life for a man until later in the year. You hit your stride love wise July 15 - but then it all goes belly up when Venus retrogrades in your sign through early August and reappears in your sign October 8 - November 9, when you may be able to resume your fling. For those of you in a long standing relationship, Venus retrograde will really sort things out for you and your partner. If you basically drive each other mad, now's the time to call it quits and move on to someone new (or refind you).

Career:
You're at your analytical best and a step ahead of coworkers in February. But all might not be exactly as it seems the first full week of the month, so check and double check all the details. Be seen and heard in April and don't hesitate to self-promote and cut corners, particularly if you have your eye on a step up. Work efforts peak the week of May 21, so gear up and set plans in motion to achieve your goals. If not in May, you could get a nice pay rise or perk in August, with Mars in Gemini, your career zone from August 7 - September 29. You're an attention seeker and an attention getter during this time, so don't back down.

Travel:
Dash off in search of new horizons and new thrills too when the Sun and Mercury your ruler in Taurus trigger your spirit of adventure in May. May is also the month to spend a week at a luxury vacation - when the 5 star thing really appeals. But do schedule time away around the New Moon May 16, or you could be in for travel delays and cancellations. Fit that much needed business trip or 'go see' what the opposition and future employees are up to before the last week of July, when Mars aligns with Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Avoid traveling in October, when Mercury retrogrades in your short trips zone (unless you love sitting around airports for hours that is).

Home:
As we mentioned, Jupiter and Pluto in Sagittarius definitely point towards big things on the home front for the majority of you. If you're a messy but organized Virgo, first use this powerful energy to clean out and clean up your place from top to bottom. Clearing your personal space is an excellent way to prepare yourself for all the big changes headed your way. Your role as a partner or supporter may be stretched when your partner's mum comes to stay (and stay and stay) or your sis lobs on the couch and shows no signs of moving off it…ever. But you can manage and you will.
