THE YEAR AHEAD FOR THE SIGNS -
2001

(March 21 - April 19)

The Moon, that powerful and luminescent orb, visits your Sign during the first two days of the year. What a way to start off the New Year, Aries! All that emotional lunar influence will be focused on the issues you hold most dear in your heart. When the Moon's in your Sign, resolutions won't stand a chance against your energy! While none of the outer planets cross your celestial path this year, two very personal planets do shack up with you for a while.
First comes Venus, Planet of Love, lavishing some warm, affectionate attention on you from February 2nd through June 5th. This benevolent planet goes retrograde for much of March and April, though, compelling you to question your romantic ideals and intentions. Are you getting what you need? And then there's Mercury, the quicksilver Planet of Communication, which hangs out with you for three weeks in April. This matchup of your Sun Sign's vigor with Mercury makes for eager self-expression, tons of fresh ideas and maybe some less than tactful things said!
Rams will focus on the home during the second half of the year. You're yearning to make a change to the aesthetics of your environment. You'll be faced with a choice: redecorate or relocate? Any changes could necessitate a dip into your savings. Take caution when pulling out the credit card to pay for big ticket items - what seems like the perfect thing to buy now can turn into long-lasting debt. You'll still be bounding around with the usual Aries verve, ready to take on any challenge, but home just keeps calling to you. Perhaps that's where your greatest challenge could lay. Investigate that idea.
Due to the influences of Pluto, Rams born the first week of April should be aware that 2001 could be a life-changing year. Take advantage of this opportunity by planning a traveling adventure, or take a class to open your mind to different cultures and languages.

( April 20 - May 20)

You're on a passionate, emotional and sociable roll as 2001 begins, Taurus. Venus waltzes into January in a romantic, soul-bearing mood, asking that you open your heart and let love in. At the same time, Mars is asking you to probe deeply to better understand your motivations. Since it's a new year and a new millennium, the retrograde motion of Jupiter, Planet of Philosophy and Good Fortune, is advantageous. This retrograde period forces us to reexamine our beliefs and ways of living. Travel should wait until you've sorted out more complex issues.
Mercury, Venus and Saturn all spend some time in your Sign this year, so get ready for some personal celestial attention. With Mercury's visit from April 22nd to May 6th, you are extra-practical and focused, and it's hard to top your own Taurus level-headedness and powers of concentration! Taurus is all about common sense, with emphasis on the word 'sense.' You feel your way through the world, and your tactile, hands-on approach to life makes you the most sensual of the Zodiac Signs. Venus, Planet of Love, takes you by the horns on June 7th and leads you around until July 5th. With this transit through your Sign, you get to indulge in pleasure and luxury, as money and love come to you easily right now.
Saturn's the taskmaster, here to make our lives hard, Taurus, giving you more work to slog through -- which you like! This Planet of Karma retrogrades through your Sign in January and then straight ahead through mid-April. When retrograde, Saturn's lesson for us is even tougher to bear, but you, Bull, have what it takes to come out on top here. With Mars in focused Scorpio combined with your own strength, there's no slowing you down.
Bulls will be most comfortable sticking to what they know this year: The best meals, the most comfortable beds and all the entertainment you need can be found under your own roof. It is absolutely fine if travel is not on your agenda for 2001. Be proud to be a homebody!

Gemini, your 2001 couldn't start off any better, astrologically speaking. Jupiter, the Planet of Philosophy and Good Fortune, treks through your Sign until the middle of July. This beneficial planet bestows upon you an optimism and enthusiasm unmatched by any other Sign right now. You're set to do great things -- in your life, your career and in love -- because of your current ability to see the big picture and not allow the details to stress you out. Make the most of this fortunate energy! You may begin to feel the pressure of expectations, though, when Saturn, the Planet of Karma and Responsibility moves into your Sign for an extended stay.
The effects of this movement will give you a weighted feeling, but you're a Mutable Sign, so you'll adapt. Create more structure in your life and you'll stay afloat. Buy a good organizer or calendar to help keep you in line. Don't dismay if you have to place business before pleasure: You are growing and evolving, Gemini! And becoming more committed to something is not a bad thing.
Geminis with the urge to zip up their suitcases and head out of town near the end of the year should be cautious. Due to the influences of Uranus, the Planet of Rebellion, and a retrograde Jupiter, you should expect the unexpected. Flip through as many glossy travel magazines as you can to whet your appetite for adventure, but before you buy tickets to go somewhere, investigate and keep yourself updated! That spectacular hot spot you read about might not be all that you dreamed.

Your 2001 begins with some challenges to your traditional views, Cancer. With Mercury, Venus, Uranus and Neptune all in forward-thinking Aquarius, if you really want to keep up, you're going to have to come out of your shell more often than you might feel inclined to. The world is calling to you, Crab, and you'd do well to heed that call. Upgrade your computer system, look into alternative healing and get out among friends. It's the Age of Aquarius, you know? Also, book yourself a trip for the Spring when Jupiter returns to direct motion through Gemini after three months retrograde -- it's a great time to travel.
Cancers should not be surprised during the first half of the year when friends heavily rely on them. You're a parental figure, always dependable and compassionate, so you will feel obligated to help. Saturn, Planet of Karma and Responsibility, moves slowly in retrograde through Taurus until April, so even if you feel overwhelmed by their needs, you have a chance to take your time and help your friends fully and conscientiously.
The best part of your year will be mid-July and won't leave until 2002. Jupiter, Planet of Philosophy and Good Fortune, settles down in your Sign for a good long while, so thank your lucky stars, Cancer! During this time, you will feel good about yourself, and your confidence will be apparent to others. The smile on your face and power in your stride will lead to some dynamic changes for you. You may even say goodbye to 2001 looking quite different than when you welcomed it in. With all the overhauling in technology, your career and probably even your love life, you might even be thinking about a makeover. It doesn't have to be anything drastic; do something that makes you feel good about yourself.

Leo, 2001 looks like the year for big changes, big challenges and, if you want it, big love. Venus, Planet of Love, dances into the new year with poetic expressions of affection on her mind as she transits through Pisces and ends the year in the mood for hard work and possible commitment. Once all the New Year's parties calm down, you'll enjoy spending some quality time with someone you love. Shower them not only with your attention but also with the sort of creative gestures that Leos are known for. If you're uncoupled and longing for a year of sweet kisses and long walks in the park, 2001 is the year you have been waiting for, Leo.
Keep those creative juices flowing throughout the year if you can -- whether through poetry or painting or even through your career endeavors. Leos are at their most content when receiving acclaim for their creative output. You thrive off a sincerely appreciative audience. Go with your wild ideas and see them through to completion.
Children will play a big role in a Lion's life this year. Whether you are working toward having a child, raising a child or baby-sitting your friend's child, you will learn more from this world of innocence and imagination than any book could teach you. Listen carefully to a toddler's ramble and allow yourself to be silly when you play. Leos who are able to see the world through a child's eyes will learn important lessons. Spending time with family in November will help clear up any misunderstandings and will pave the way toward making new memories. Be sure to say the things to family members that you wish you had said before.
That taskmaster planet, Saturn, poses the year's challenges. It transits from Taurus to Gemini in April, throwing your communications off-balance, demanding that you focus on your thoughts and really mean what you say. While you might feel lost in a jumble of ideas and words, others may see you as acting overly dramatic or full of yourself. Depend on your family and close friends to offer you the perspective you'll need. The most important message Leos must remember this year is to retain balance. You will be inclined to focus on love and relationships, but be careful to not to neglect spirituality, career, family, health, friends and community.

Like most Virgos, quality is very important to you. You work methodically, and you think through every little detail, placing under a microscope your every observation. One stumbling block for you in 2001 will be to see the forest for the trees, to not get so lost in the details that you get left behind by the changes that will be taking place. If you can assert your exacting standards and yet remain alert and flexible, this year could bring much personal evolution.
Jupiter, Planet of Philosophy and Good Fortune, begins the year in Gemini, giving you an opportunity to capitalize on your knack for those aforementioned details. Put your mind to use, as this placement portends wealth and luck by way of the intellect. Watch what you say, though, Virgo. Your perfectionism could make you say some hurtful things to those around you. You're one tough critic, but you are also a loyal friend with the most honorable intentions. When Jupiter shifts to Cancer in April, spend your time with family and your energy on humanitarian efforts. Invite your loved ones over for a weekly potluck: Their love and companionship will be especially enriching at this time. And the stability of family could be just what you need this year. You may pull up your personal roots and move to a new home or a new town, or you may just heed a redecorating urge. A shift in family dynamics could feel unsettling at first, but the change is natural and was bound to happen sooner or later. Welcome change, rather than fight it, Virgo. Everyone knows you like to be in control, and you still can be. Just don't let anyone know!
Travel may call to you in the first few months of the year. If you decide to get away, it's important that you learn the rules and customs of any locale you visit. The more you allow yourself to fall into the rhythms and customs of your destination, the richer and more rewarding your experience becomes. Live outside your guide book, studious Virgo! Be spontaneous and open-minded, and you'll learn more than any sight-seeing tour could teach you.
By the time the winter holidays roll around, you'll be so warmed up and broken in by all the changes you've been through that the Saturn retrograde and Mercury's time in change-demanding Aquarius won't even phase you! Enjoy your friendships and love affairs and give generously to those in need.
