With an absence of last year’s professional pressures, your personal and financial confidence is on the rise. It’s on the 18th January that Jupiter, planet of luck moves into your home, family and property sector, making 2010 an extremely important and lucky year for domestic matters. Jupiter is the planet of luck, good fortune and expansion, so it’s likely that things will become bigger. You might move to a bigger house, the size of your family may increase or the importance of things on the home front may become even more important. It’s important from the start that you have the right work/life balance, for Saturn will return to your career sector for 15 weeks, from the 8th April to the 22nd July. There is likely to be some pressure around this, especially if there is too much happening and not enough hours in your day to fit it all into. The one thing that is lacking at the start of the year is romantic opportunities and for the first 2 months you could think that you’ve been left out. While there are some romantic opportunities as early as February the real surprise comes on the 6th June when Jupiter, planet of luck moves into your romantic sector, where he'll create a magical 3 month period that runs until the 9th September. 2010 is also an important year for friendships, teamwork, groups you belong to or for networking in general.

Money:
It was on the 22nd August 2009 that the lunar nodes shifted, with the South Node moving into your financial sector and the North Node moving into your income sector and as we move into 2010, it’s there they’re still stationed and it’s here that they’ll remain until March 2011, here for the whole of 2010. As well as influencing where the eclipses this year will fall, the lunar nodes create both a back stop and a push forward. With the South Node positioned in your financial sector, this creates some very clear financial bottom lines and a very clear sense of what you need to move away from, leave behind or distance yourself from. It’s a Full Moon in your financial sector on New Years Day that brings that home, giving you a chance to make the right financial resolutions for 2010, from Day 1. After that, so long as you continue to defend your bottom lines and stay on track it won’t be until late May to late July that too much attention is required. It’s the North Node’s position in your income sector that is having a much more bigger impact, mainly because of the support that’s there. While the South Node draws bottom lines, the North Node removes any glass ceilings, creating a situation where the sky is the limit, with an opportunity to strive for more, to acquire more or to move up in the world. This is something that is being supported by Pluto, planet of change and revolution, who will spend the whole year and every other year until 2024, in your income sector. The year begins with the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Pluto and the North Node all in your income sector, creating opportunities that you have never experienced before, so you may have to play it by ear to start with. There is some extreme activity in your income sector in the first 3 weeks of the year, creating an opportunity to get things off to the right start. It’s a solar eclipse in your income sector on the 15th January, that even if it brings no immediate income opportunities, has the power to open new doors and put things on the right path. There isn’t a moment of 2010 that your income sector won’t be active, but you’ll find more opportunities at the start and at the end of the year and also in the few weeks around the lunar eclipse on the 26th June. January and December 2010 and January 2011 are especially auspicious months for income opportunities, with the time in between more about working behind the scenes to create something sustainable.

Love:
2010 is a year that is going to sneak up on you, for there is very little indication at the start of the year, of the huge romantic potential that the year holds. In fact it looks like a very ordinary year and the fact that Venus, planet of love won’t spend a moment of 2010 in your Sign, not returning January 2011, could even leave you feeling that love has abandoned you. But the heavens are in fact holding a surprise party for you and rather than 2010 being a year of either no or limited romantic opportunities, it holds more romantic opportunities than any other year you've ever experienced, in your lifetime. For what comes disguised as an ordinary year, is anything but. It is fitting that the planet that jumps up and yells ‘surprise’ is Uranus, planet of surprise and the unexpected. The last time Uranus was in your romantic sector was between 1927 and 1935, so most likely for the first time in your lifetime or at least the first time as an adult. Uranus moves into your romantic sector on the 28th May and while he’ll leave again on the 14th August, he’ll return in March 2011 and will remain here until 2019. Then just days after Uranus reaches your romantic sector Jupiter, planet of luck arrives, a full 6 months ahead of schedule. Unless you’re over 80, this is the first time in your lifetime that Jupiter and Uranus have met up in your romantic sector and as well as bringing some huge and unexpected romantic opportunities this year, opens up a romantic chapter that extends out for 28 years, until 2038. This dwarfs the romantic opportunities in March and April and the relationship opportunities from late April to mid June, putting your love life on a path that it’s never been on before. This is as big as it gets and forget looking for a year to compare it to, because there isn’t one.

Business:
The income opportunities that began last year when Jupiter, planet of luck, spent the whole year in your income sector continue this year. You begin the year with the Sun, Jupiter, Pluto, Mercury and Mars, the planets of luck, change, communication and passion, all in your income sector, giving Jupiter the kind of send off that is creating a tail wind that will continue to bring income opportunities, for months and years to come. For while Mercury will leave on New Years Day, returning again later in the month for a few extra weeks, Jupiter on the 6th January, the Sun later in the month and Mars next month, Pluto is here for the long haul. Pluto will stay in your income sector until 2024 and with help from the other planets from time to time, the opportunities you have now are here to stay. With Saturn in your career sector until October, the bond between these two areas of your chart will continue to bring professional and financial opportunities for the coming year. Apart from income opportunities and the rise in confidence that goes with it, don’t over play things, with no activity in your financial sector until the middle of the year. Once the Sun arrives in your financial sector on the 21st June, your financial situation will need more of your attention. Watch out for important events or clues during a total solar eclipse on the 22nd July.
