General Forecast for Pisces 2010 Ye Old Disclaimer - this forecast is based on the Solar House technique that is used in newspapers and popular magazines. The principle is basically to analyze the relationship between the Sun and other planets in terms of aspect and house position. While this method can often be amazingly accurate, it is only a "one size fits all" approach and won't be as accurate as a forecast based on your real birth chart.       It looks like a great year ahead for you, Pisces with Jupiter now in your sign for the first time in 12 years. And luckily for you, Jupiter entered Pisces fairly recently, which means that it's still in the early part of the sign (at seven degrees Pisces) which places it very near your Sun and Venus in Pisces in your 1st House. This indicates that its influence will be strong, and experienced very personally by you, not only from events happening around you, but also within you.        Jupiter represents the principle of expansion and growth in life, and psychologically it refers to the qualities of confidence, having an optimistic attitude and a sense of faith in one's self. Also, in the ancient times, before the planet Neptune was discovered, Jupiter was the ruler of Pisces - and so it is believed to still have a somewhat stronger effect when it comes back to its "old home" so to speak.        This will be a year when you'll be looking at your life from a larger perspective, when you'll want to understand more about yourself and where you're going. Jupiter points towards the future, it envisions, it plans and it dreams. And with Pisces having a natural affinity with the 12th House (it's the 12th sign of the zodiac) we have to look to the 12th House planets as significant as well. Mercury is here, along with a very potent EXACT Neptune and Chiron conjunction. All of this suggests a prime year for inner growth, spiritual enrichment and taking some time off for vision questing and looking at your life philosophically. Yoga retreats, meditation retreats or just simply taking more time for yourself away from the details of life to get a grasp of the bigger picture. Dream work, doing journaling or creative writing are all indicated by Mercury here. And the potential for psychic development, healing old emotional wounds and becoming more conscious of your higher Self are all shown by the Neptune/Chiron pair, which is nicely sextile the Moon.        Venus will also be a key factor this year, pointing the way towards a very social year with lots of new friends and good times ahead. Travel with friends is indicated by Venus ruling your 3rd House of travel. Look for May to be a key travel month for fun and relaxation with others. You can find new purpose and direction through involvement with groups and experiencing a sense of community (Venus is sextile Pluto in the 11th House of Community). Note that the Moon's Node is also found in the 11th House, indicating that destiny may play a role here, guiding you to new social experiences, new groups that may open up important long term opportunities. Career-wise, this will be a good year to do networking with others connected to your profession.           Finances will also take an upturn for this year with the Jupiter/Venus pairing. The Moon in your 2nd House of money echoes this theme, and suggests a new personal direction in extra income, a side business or at least the opportunity to earn more in your current job. Old debts, however will need to be paid off, and new financial risks considered very carefully with Saturn in your 8th House. With the "Jupiter effect" in force, impulsive spending or risky financial deals with others (Saturn in Libra) will have to be watched.        Saturn in the 8th can also indicate that your work will involve more financial work somehow this year, working with budgets, fund raising or just focusing more on long term financial planning for yourself.        Mars in the 6th House brings both new energy and frustration to your job and career picture. A good year to look for new jobs, take on more leadership duties and advance on your career path. Again, the Jupiter factor is in play here, since it rules Sagittarius on your 10th House of career. But the fact that Mars is Retrograde also warns of conflicts with others at your job, or a sense that your ideas and potentials are being blocked at your current job. The need to express yourself (Leo) through your work will likely be an issue. The window of job change opportunity will be from now through June, while Mars stays in the 6th House. Mars demands action and focus of energy - take advantage of this cycle while you can!        Mars is also involved in a Yod (long blue triangle formation) with both Jupiter and Pluto, which in the 6th House can indicate health issues this year. A great year to find the motivation to do more exercise and improve your lifestyle. If not, Mars in Leo warns of back problems, heart or circulatory issues, and general fatigue or even careless accidents.        Mars will bring new energy to your love life during June and July as it transits your 7th House. And since the Jupiter effect also increases the desire to travel, look to late September or October as key months to do some serious traveling.            for change and growth over the next six years.
