irgo, you have an important 12 months ahead, financially and personally. Over the past year and more, you will have certainly noticed Saturn’s limiting influence on your finances which by now would have resulted in you taking a different approach to earning your money, you may have drawn up a savings plan and consequently, you may have changed your attitude toward materialism entirely. At this moment in time, you are one of the more freedom-loving signs and with ongoing changes around work and career, you may have come to the conclusion that although money makes the world go round, it’s independence and a freedom to choose how you earn it and what you do with it that keeps your world spinning. In the coming 12 months, you’ll finish up and consolidate what you’ve learnt about finances as you prepare for another cycle in your life.

In the meantime, you could be busy trying to make your money from anything to with health and fitness – perhaps you’ve decided to become a yoga teacher, train as a nutrition consultant or other health expert which allows you to follow a less rigid day-to-day regime. Equally, some of you may have decided or will decide to get married a second time round or enter another serious partnership and I’m not saying you’re turning into a gold digger but your (potential) partner may come with a nice little stash of cash stacked away somewhere, lucky you!

Along with changes in career, your relationships remain on the agenda and a crucial part of your life in 2014. If you are single your chances of meeting someone at work are high, at least until the summer of 2014. Most (or typical) Virgos tend to go for optimistic and generous types and whoever you choose to get involved with now is also someone who is able to back you up professionally – even if it’s more in the role of a mentor. Along with the final round of eclipses affecting your finances, the most important time for relationships will be March, April and May 2014. These could, as always be business related and a lot of it may have to do with you doing some hand-holding and guiding but equally, if you are single, this could be a very romantic time and one where your focus will be on commitment and partnerships. Perhaps you’re already at the stage where you’re talking money and children, if so, you’ll be having a few discussions then. The planet Mars will also be stationed on your sign for a whole 8 months (!) making you more argumentative (yes, even more so than usual!) but also more energetic and keen to get things done and move forward. This is a transformative time for you, be careful not to go overboard with forceful criticism.

In any case, during this time, you’ll realise a thing or two about yourself which is just as well as well as the really big news of 2014 for you is that Rahu and Ketu – or the North node and South nodes of the Moon - change signs in mid-July. After an 18-month stay shaking up your finances, now it’s time to break out of your own shell. You can sometimes put yourself down a little or underestimate how much you bring to the table but this year, you are challenging the limits of how you see yourself or of how others see you – this can also include your appearance. It makes you more determined and others may see you as more of a risk-taker – you’ll want to live life to the fullest, strongly searching for your individuality and for your true nature. This might make you feel like an outcast at times as you’re trying to figure out who you are morphing into. During this process, you’re likely to be attracted to people who, from your point of view, have a missing part of yourself. You’ll step out of the culture you’ve known to look at what’s happening beyond the horizon.

Added to that is a whole new circle of friends and acquaintances – probably a result of you changing as a person. But not only is this a good time to expand your network, this is also a good time for relationships that are blessed by Jupiter’s aspect onto your house of relationships. Other people, including your partner, can count on your support.

Your solar year ends with a solar eclipse in 1^st house of self, the beginning of you break-free period as you remove yourself from old circumstances and behaviours.

Have a great year, Virgo!
