astrologizing.net My Forecast for Me in 2009
|
Sun; Jan 04, 2009. Some say it is much harder to forecast for oneself than for strangers. I don't think so.
I've always found it fairly easy to forecast for myself; I've been with myself for so long.
Anyway, here is my 2009 forecast using numerology, Sun transit Ascendant, progressions, and transits for
the year. Going all the way back, my 8 years have been, 2000, 1991, 1982, 1973, 1964, 1955, 1946,
1937, whoops....that's it! Ye gods, I'm old! I'm at my 8th 8 year; 9th if you count my birth year.
What is one supposed to do in one's 8 year? The 8 Year: A year of reward, respect, and recognition. So
says, DECOZ NUMEROLOGY
Ok, I'm a'waiting. 8 birth forces are considered the bankers of the nine; like the Taurus Zodiacal Sign.
That's our fate. However, our destiny is the number our birth name adds up to. Mine is 9. Nines are total
opposite of 8. No wonder I'm often confused. OK, let's start with my chart today: Sun conjunct Ascendant!

At the bottom of the chart, I've written just a few of the aspects that I've noticed. _t means transiting.
The Sun conjunct Ascendant can only be good. Wherever the Sun is, there is light. So, my persona, my
shoulds and oughts, how I view the world, and my safety net are all being lit up so that I can "see" myself
better. Some years I close my eyes to this; I don't want to see myself. This year, the eight of my eights, I do.
The Moon is the Midpoint of Venus Saturn occurring in the House of communication, neighbors, my
sister, and my brother. Ebertin says the principles of Venus/Saturn are inhibitions and sufferings in
love-life. With the Moon involved he says emotional depressions caused by unsatisfied love...a woman
living a lonely life. Wow, I guess this will be quite a year, huh?
Nodes square Uranus Ebertin says are upsets experienced with others. With Uranus in my 4th, I can
only guess that upsets will be with family; perhaps a move or other drastic change. So, who isn't
experiencing that? It could be a job loss or income cut. Yep.
So, as if Pluto hasn't reflected enough in my life for the past few years, he now comes along to transit
t-square my Moon/Saturn opposition. Ho Hum....let's have a pity party! Most of y'all know what that
means. I'm not even going to put it down on paper. It lasts until October 2010. The less said, the better.
I'm drawing in change that will be good for all concerned and leaving the difficulties to my Lord. Remember
the last time that the transpersonal planets Uranus and Neptune hit this point? I came out of that
experience smelling like a rose; it was tough, but it was goooooooood.
Saturn transit square Chiron....I haven't done a lot of work with Chiron so I'd better pass on this one. I'm
hoping it will mean that I have a chance to learn more about healing.
At the same time, Saturn will quincunx Venus who rules nearly everything in my chart; Sun, Moon,
decan of my Ascendant, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 9th houses. So, that's telling me that I need to make some
adjustments in all of those departments; communication, home, children, learning/philosophy/spiritual life.
Harumph, it says NOTHING about diet! Now, perhaps, THAT was Saturn square Chiron! Ok, so be it.
So that's enough writing for today. Tomorrow, I'll tackle progressions and transits.
Wed; Jan 07, 2009 Progressions for the coming year. The important ones in BOLD.
Jan 7, 2009 (Dec 12, 2008 to Feb 1, 2009) Moon Oppos MC
At this time your feelings and sensitivity are heightened, and you are prone to seek out a safe haven or to
shy away from public life. You feel moody and easily moved by whatever is happening in your environment,
less resistant to outside forces. True and it is my 9th month in an 8 year.
Jan 7, 2009 (Dec 11, 2008 to June 27, 2010) Moon 4th H.
Your desire for comfort, security, and privacy is stronger now, and spending some quality time with your
family or by yourself at home is satisfying. This is a time for going within to replenish yourself in order to
meet the challenges and stresses of your usual activities. Domestic or family matters are emphasized.
Mar 19, 2009 (Mar 2, 2008 to Apr 5, 2010) MC Trine Nep
Your approach to your work and career is highly imaginative at this time, and you come up with interesting,
creative ideas. Your intuition is excellent and the imaginative changes that you introduce now are likely to
work out very nicely. You are also more service-oriented and sensitive to the needs of others. You are less
biased by your own personal goals and needs, and you are better able to see how your contributions fit
into the bigger picture. The only negative possibilities from this astrological influence are that others may
take advantage of your generous, self-sacrificing nature, aggressively thwart you, or capitalize on your lax,
idealistic, tolerant attitude to their advantage and to your detriment. LOL, so what else is new! I'm
lookin' for good.
Note that the precise timing of this astrological influence is very dependent on the exact birth time, so the
dates given are accurate only if your birth time is very accurate.
Mar 30, 2009 (Mar 4, 2009 to Apr 23, 2009) Moon Conj Ura
Restlessness, nervous haste, and rashness can be something of a problem, for you act on impulse and
may be out of sync with your environment. The child in you comes out now, and your sense of humor and
playfulness can become very strong. Can be a dangerous time, too, for change, traumas, and
accidents. Check all Moon transits for exact days when Moon conjuncts, squares, or opposes
Uranus.
5/12/09; Hey I left for Mexico on March 4th and returned on the Friday the 13th. I had a blast!
Apr 10, 2009 (Aug 21, 2008 to Nov 28, 2009) Merc Sqr Sun
During this time period you reevaluate some of your ideas, strategies, and perceptions. Because your own
views are changing, you often find yourself unable to communicate clearly to others. Clear communication
at this time typically requires several attempts so double-check all correspondences, instructions, etc., to
make sure that the ideas are understood.
May 29, 2009 (May 12, 2008 to June 15, 2010) Sun Sqr MC
You are at cross purposes with the people in your environment who are most able to benefit you. You tend
to come on too strong, to be oblivious to others' needs and intentions, or to act inappropriately now. You
feel an urgency to take positive steps to achieve your goals, but be certain that you are not overstepping
yourself, as this can cause considerable enmity at this time.
5/12/09; I've been realizing this for a while, but it really came home to me yesterday when I came in last at
the bridge club. I really am overstepping myself a lot and at cross-purposes with my partners. I need to
learn to hush!
June 24, 2009 (May 30, 2009 to July 19, 2009) Moon Trine Asc ties into grand earth trine.
Inner harmony and a sense of flowing along comfortably with events and people are accented now. You're
likely to take the path of least resistance and to stay with whatever has proven trustworthy and safe, rather
than making significant changes.
June 27, 2009 (Nov 7, 2008 to Feb 14, 2010) Merc Sesqu Asc
You will be alert and on your toes now. The pace is likely to be fast, even hectic. You are restless and
eager to meet others halfway, to converse, exchange information, and make connections. Nervousness or
irritability due to aggravations and the stress of increased demands at work is possible.
July 21, 2009 (July 19, 2006 to July 24, 2012) Chi Qucnx Mars
At this time, you may need to curb your impulsive actions and resist the temptation to force other people to
agree with you. Too much self interest on your part can lead to a crisis in your personal or professional life.
This willful and defiant attitude will prevent you from gaining wisdom from others. Furthermore, your
provoking and antagonizing tendencies may leave you ill-prepared to deal with the consequences. Being
aware of this influence should lead you to consider moderating your attitude in order to reflect a more
constructive self-image.
Aug 11, 2009 (July 16, 2009 to Sep 5, 2009) Moon Conj Merc ties into grand earth trine.
Communication along personal lines, such as corresponding with a friend or telephoning a relative, are
favored. Interest in history, psychology, dreams, stories and novels increases at this time.
Aug 19, 2009 (July 24, 2009 to Sep 13, 2009) Moon Trine Nep ties into grand earth trine.
Your imagination is activated and you're inclined to feel rather passive & dreamy, or creatively inspired.
Music or art moves you very much now.
Sep 17, 2009 (Aug 22, 2009 to Oct 12, 2009) Moon Sesqu Moon
You're more moody, oversensitive, or touchy than usual, and your irritability is apt to provoke discord in
your immediate environment. Relations with parents, children, or other close associates are tense.
Sep 20, 2009 (Aug 26, 2009 to Oct 15, 2009) Moon SSqr Sat
Duties and obligations seem burdensome or at least emotionally restricting to you, and you may feel
self-pity or temporarily down in the dumps. You are not in a sociable, gregarious mood, no matter what
surroundings you find yourself in. YEP.
Important transits for the year:
Feb 6, 2009 (Jan 6, 2009 to July 14, 2009) Plu Sqr Sat
New obstacles arise and increasing responsibilities make it difficult for you to expand and grow. New
obligations are likely to arise both in your personal life and your work. This time period is one of the
times when this transit it is most likely to manifest.
Mar 12, 2009 (Mar 11, 2009 to Mar 14, 2009) Mars Sqr Mars
At this time you must guard against being too aggressive, coming on too strong, or trying to force your own
will and thereby arousing hostility in others. Also, frustrated desires and obstacles to achieving your aims
can evoke enormous anger in you, and you may do something rash and regrettable. Conflicts and
confrontations may be unavoidable, but do try to avoid situations which you know will provoke or irritate
you. Working alone is best at this time. I put these Mars aspects in because I have Mars opposite the
Sun in natal chart.
Mar 13, 2009 (Mar 12, 2009 to Mar 14, 2009) Mars Sqr Sun
You are inclined to be aggressive and hot-tempered now, particularly when your will is blocked. Your
pushiness or competitive attitude is likely to create antagonism, hostility, and further resistance to your
efforts. It is best to work alone rather than try to cooperate or coordinate your efforts with anyone at this
time. Also, you are impatient and tend to behave in an impulsive, irritable way which makes you more
prone to accidents during this period.
Apr 2009 through June 2009 Sat Rx and D conj Neptune and in grand trine with natal Uranus,
Mercury, and Ascendant.
Great blessings to consciously overcome karmic bondage. Last time was 1979. Must be time to leave
again? That was an awful time. Doris Hebel says people have a tendency to get locked in or out of grand
trines.
June 4, 2009 (Jan 6, 2009 to July 14, 2009) Plu Sqr Sat
New obstacles arise and increasing responsibilities make it difficult for you to expand and grow. New
obligations are likely to arise both in your personal life and your work. The 2nd Pluto square Saturn
June 9, 2009 (Jan 3, 2009 to July 19, 2009) Plu Sqr Moon
Emotional upheaval, and irrational, compulsive feelings are key issues during this time period. Obsessive
and compulsive behavior can arise now. Handling these feelings in the best way is an art that requires
delicate sensitivity. It is good to release the feelings, but not wallow in them.
Nov 22, 2009 (Nov 11, 2009 to Dec 6, 2009) Sat Conj Moon
Self-doubt, self-criticism, and feelings of isolation and alienation are key issues at this time. You feel like
others do not really understand you, and you need to break from many of your old habits and attachments.
This aspect can be devastating to me.
Nov 24, 2009 (Nov 12, 2009 to Dec 7, 2009) Sat Oppos Sat
Your mood is conservative, quiet, reflective, and philosophical at this time. You are more detached from
your daily affairs than usual, and you step back to reflect on the overall course of your life.
Dec 4, 2009 (Nov 2, 2009 to Jan 1, 2010) Plu Sqr Moon
Emotional upheaval, and irrational, compulsive feelings are key issues during this time period. Obsessive
and compulsive behavior can arise now. Handling these feelings in the best way is an art that requires
delicate sensitivity. It is good to release the feelings, but not wallow in them.
Dec 8, 2009 (Nov 6, 2009 to Jan 5, 2010) Plu Sqr Sat
New obstacles arise and increasing responsibilities make it difficult for you to expand and grow. New
obligations are likely to arise both in your personal life and your work. 3rd time this year.
Reflections on the above. The most dire aspects in my transits this year are Pluto square
Moon/Saturn. Saturn is my ruling planet and I have Moon/Saturn opposition, the Moon ruling my
7th house of intimates and partner. Even though I haven't looked it up lately, the aspect
continues into 2010, I'm sure, because of Pluto's long term transiting period. Sufficient for the
year [sic] is its own trouble...At the end of 2009, of course, transiting Saturn conjuncts my Moon
and opposes natal Saturn which happened thirty years ago; I ran away from home.
My grand earth trine of Mercury/Neptune/Ascendant being hit is not always good news. Neptune
is square the Nodes and usually concerns a family member or best friend. The void house is the
2nd, so some of you know what that can mean. I'm concerned, but not worried. I know that my
destiny is not everyone else's and vice versa. I don't ask, "why me" when something I consider
as bad occurs, but "why not me?" And then I try to accept that I wasn't being punished...
Tuesday, May 12, 2009. This is my solar return for this year. The important things to look at right away
are: 1. The House of the Sun. 2. The aspects to the Sun. 3. The rising Sign and its ruler. 4. The house that
the ascendant ruler is in and its aspects. 5. The transits of the Sun as he moves counterclockwise through
the Signs of the Zodiac.
1. Sun in 11th House of group endeavors, money from career, hopes and wishes (never did get this one)
step children, etc. Since I am a natural 5th house Sun, this is really foreign to me; I don't do well in groups, I
get no money for my work, and hopes and wishes don't seem to belong to the detached House of
Aquarius. So, there is something that I really need to learn this year; something that is foreign to me.
2. The Sun has just passed a conjunction to Mercury and square to Jupiter, Chiron, and Neptune. If there
were such a thing, we might say that the Sun was void of course. The very first applying aspect the Sun
makes is the minor semisquare to Venus. Venus is at the furtherest point away from the Sun at the
semisquare of 45 degrees. The last major aspect was conjunct Mercury. The next applying major aspect
of the Sun will be the square to Ceres in Virgo on May 25th. This could be a very good time to nurture
myself with a diet and exercise (Leo and the Sun rule the 2nd House and Virgo rules diets; Ceres rules
nurturing).
3-4. The rising Sign is Cancer (the degree exactly opposite my natal chart) and its ruler is the Moon in the
9th House of foreign affairs, travel, higher mind and education. The Moon is conjunct Uranus so life may
present a few surprises along those lines; a surprise or unexpected trip; an ah-hah experience, learning
something new and different. Juno is conjunct the cusp of the 9th House and speaks of one's husband. My
husband is a Pisces, so I would expect him to be involved with this period of time (the 2nd week of
September and/or the 2nd week of March). Saturn is also in opposition to Juno on the 9th House cusp.
Saturn rules the 7th House of one's partner (s).
The Moon/Uranus is sextile the Sun so I would expect an opportunity to present itself. In Pisces the
opportunity could possibly be one of service, compassion, or sacrifice.
5. The dates of the Sun's transit through the whole Zodiac through the year is marked plainly and involves
the concerns of the above 1-4 notes. I do have my suspicions about what may happen, but I also have my
hopes and intentions of what I can make happen. I don't want to meddle in the energy of either and, as the
old occult saying goes:
To will, to dare, to do, and to keep silent.

Aug. 4, 2009. Looking this over, the most dire thing that happened to me this year so far is my fall in
Miami on July 14th when I thought I broke my kneecap. Interesting that the only aspect in the SR is
transiting Sun conjunct Pallas in the 1st House. SA Pallas was square my natal Venus and SA Mars.
Something saved me as I didn't have a break; only a bad bruise.
