in your money sector that makes 2008 such a lucky financial year, urging you to raise the bar and expect more than ever before. This is going to rouse your passions and get you a lot more involved in your own life, than ever before, unwilling to let things pass you by. At first this may present as a challenge, something that gets you fighting and coming out from behind the shadows of your own life to defend what’s important or to go after what you want.

As you start demanding more, pulling deeper and drawing on your hidden strengths and passions, not only are you likely to achieve your main targets, but other areas of your life are going to come along for the ride. If your battle for greater financial abundance sees you rising to a challenge, then the rise in your financial situation is not only going to solve any immediate problems, but will give you the freedom to follow your dreams.

While travel isn’t the major focus of the year, it is going to become more possible, as the year progresses, especially in February, around the 7th and again in August, around the 17th August. This will be a constant theme, as will study and learning, throughout the year and into 2009.

As well as money being a major theme in 2008 and despite how it first presents, this is a very lucky financial year, this is a year that is all about family, putting down roots, establishing a home or focusing on the important personal aspects of life.

Because Saturn is moving through your home and family sector, this is where you are likely to experience challenges, but it is also the area where you are likely to experience the greatest personal growth. Instead of hiding or avoiding challenges here, especially those that involve your home, family or property, embrace them. It’s once you take responsibility and you start dealing with things, that not only will any challenges shrink, because of the support they have, you’ll find that as you deal with them, that they start to reveal the very real opportunities that lie on the other side. This is likely to be one of those times when the only way through is through, with a need to just get on with doing and dealing with what’s in front of you.

With Jupiter in your money sector and Saturn in your home and family sector and both these areas of your chart supporting each other, this makes this an important and powerful year for property investment or putting time, money and energy into creating the lifestyle and family situation that will support you and allow for the most personal growth.

Above all, this is a year to follow your passions, with the only rule you need to live by, is that there will be no more sitting on the fence.
