From 5 January Jupiter will enter your sign and remain all year. This planet has a 12-year cycle, so it has not been in Aquarius since 1997. The year Jupiter spends in your sign it can be one of the more opportunistic as your attitude is more optimistic in general and you can grow more as a human being. You may travel this year, both in the mind and the body. Seeking pastures new is not unusual.

Jupiter will begin to conjoin with Neptune in late April and remain in this position until August. If you have any plans that help to open up your life have them in place before the end of May when Neptune will move retrograde. Jupiter will also move into its yearly retrograde phase on Monday 15 June - an auspicious date for you this year. Sometimes the retrograde of a planet puts the journey you take more internal than external, and until October 13th when Jupiter moves direct, is a time to reflect on your progress in life.

If you are born on 26 January or 9/10 February, you are also influenced by Eclipses that occur on these dates. This can bring change to your home and family life. May and June are also important months to get involved in a collective venture of some type. You may join forces with people from different cultural backgrounds to yourself, but by working together you can make a difference. The energy of the group is now much stronger than individual action alone.
