Aries Horoscope for January 2012

By Susan Miller

You start the year in a far more optimistic mood than you've been in for some time. You are right to feel that way! The unusual feature to January is that in the first three weeks every planet will be moving direct speed. Not one will be retrograde, a condition I have not seen for ages - some years this never happens. To have three weeks of strong, positive energy from all the little planets is a gift, and you may want to use that time to initiate something of importance. The sooner you get started, the better. Mars, your ruler, although technically moving direct, is acting like he had one too many glasses of champagne and is crawling around like he needs a few cups of coffee.

Once little active Mars goes retrograde from January 23 to April 13, he will fall on the bed, face down, with all his clothes on, and he will be temporarily dead to the world. He will be in a deep sleep, and no one will be able to rouse him. This means that with your ruler retrograde and napping, life will slow down and you will have to be satisfied with minimal, step-by-step progress. Tell an Aries that progress will slow in coming months, and they break out in rash. Patience is not a quality you are known to have ever cultivated, but may now have to do.

The area Mars is based is your workaday sector, which means you will have to expect delays in regard to all kinds of projects, at work and at home. Everything will take a little longer to accomplish than you assume it will, and this will keep up through most of April, even though Mars will turn direct April 13. (He will stay groggy for a while.) For best results, do everything in your power to get things signed, sealed, and delivered well in advance of the date he turns retrograde, January 23.

Mars retrograde is not like Mercury retrograde. (We had Mercury retrograde during the holiday shopping period, from late November to mid-December.) While Mercury rules contracts and deals, Mars rules energy. He is the booster rocket that can provide any endeavor with an energetic, assertive push. You need that, or else the effort will seem flat and half-hearted. When Mars is moving correctly, he has passion and drive, and you do too! He shows you why you should not take "no" for an answer!

Mars retrograde, starting January 23 to April 13, is not the time to schedule the launch of a new product or service. Wait until the retrograde is over, for your effort will not have all the gasoline it needs to get it off the ground properly. In fact, I suggest you aim to start just after April 21. That is the new moon in your money sector, so if you act just after April 21, you'd see profits develop nicely too. In truth, I like early May even better. It will take Mars awhile to ramp up and get moving at normal speed, so if you don't need to sign quickly, wait until early May. (After May 12, however, things get dicey again.)

If you are looking for a perfect day to sign a contract early in January, do so on Friday, January 6, when Mercury, the planet ruling agreements, will be beautifully oriented first toward Saturn (longevity) and to Jupiter (profits). You will collect benefits from both planets. That's near the full moon, Monday, January 9, so things will wrap up quickly. All new moons have an extra four days of influence after they appear, bringing you to January 12, another golden day of the month.

Indeed, Thursday, January 12, plus or minus one day, finds the Sun in Capricorn, and Mars in Virgo, in perfect harmony. Circle that time to make a big presentation, schedule an important job interview, have a major client meeting, defend a dissertation, take a qualifying exam, or do any other action that would have the power to raise your status. You can also use it for medical, dental, fitness, and other health-related actions. It's due to be a wonderful day - use it

Looking at the planets this month, many are moving in 29 degrees, the degree of completion. (Once planets go beyond 29 degrees 59 minutes, they move into the next sign, so we consider 29 degrees one of endings.) This suggests things are about to reach the end of one cycle and the beginning of a new one. The problem is, many planets are about to go retrograde soon. Mars would have reached 29 degrees soon, but instead, Mars makes it to 23 degrees Virgo when he turns back. Like your friend who left her apartment with you to go out, but quickly realizes that she left her cell phone on her desk, she has to take the elevator back upstairs. Progress will be two steps forward, one step back. Neptune is at 29 degrees Aquarius and is due to leave that sign next month, on February 3, when it makes its monumental move into Pisces. (More about that next month - this is HUGE news.) Saturn is currently at 29 degrees Libra, but will also begin to retrograde from February 7 until June 25.

Let's talk about Saturn for a minute. The Aries who are feeling the most heat from Saturn this year are those with birthdays that fall from April 13 to 19.

Saturn won't leave Libra and stop opposing your Sun, dear Aries, until October 4, because Saturn, too, is about to retrograde and give the Aries born in the later part of April a second coat of paint (so to speak). A planet will go forward, then trace its steps backward when it retrogrades, and then, when it moves forward again, it retraces its orbit forward again over the same degrees, and gives you a third coat of paint, so to speak.

Here is an important point that I have never told you: It is that back and forth movement of a planet that ultimately can create a full transformation in your life. If any planet is moving back and forth over your Sun (like it is for Aries born April 13 to 19), moon, or other planet in your chart, then you know that something big is in the works - some sort of big change will take place. That can be good news, because the past year has not been easy for Aries. At this point, I bet most Aries are saying that they are ready for change, ANY change!

Every Aries, of every birthday, has been tutored by Saturn since he entered your opposite sign in October 2009, but the readers born between April 13 and 19 have not completed their course. Everyone gets about ten months of Saturn's direct rays, but those late-born Aries have had less direct one-on-one time with Saturn, so they need to complete their course. I know, I can hear what you are saying, "Hey, It's OK, don't lose sleep worrying about me - you can go head to Scorpio. I don't need you around anymore!" But Saturn, now in Libra, always is fair with his time and gives every person the same amount of direct time. Although we don't like Saturn teaching us - he can be quite a taskmaster - in the end, our greatest breakthroughs and accomplishments are those that we claim while Saturn moves close in opposition, as some Aries have this month.

Keep this point in mind: Saturn will keep applying pain until we agree to make changes. The moment we do, Saturn is pleased and will bring help from others you know nearby. You will get advice - it's the questions you need to know, not the answers. The answers will come from those who have more experience in the area you need to solve. Saturn knows we are creatures of habit, so that's why he sticks around so long. He keeps hammering his messages until you "get it." My Little Mom used to say to me growing up, "Man learns through pain." She would laugh - but it's true. We learn quickly when we are uncomfortable or in a dire situation, and we are finally willing to do anything to end or change the painful situation. If it weren't that bad, we would just stay in it and do nothing until the cloud cover cleared.

All Aries need to protect their health, as having Saturn opposed to the Sun is a severe, draining aspect. You need more sleep, more nutritious food, and a bit more fun, dear Aries.

Now let's look at the new moon, which actually arrived December 24 last month in Capricorn at nearly 3 degrees. That new moon appeared at the pinnacle point of your chart, ruling your honors, awards, achievement, and fame, and bodes SO well for your professional progress. This new moon had a kick to it, though, and some heard some bad news, as Uranus in Aries was in hard angle to the Sun and new moon. If you were tempted to yell at your boss, don't. This also may not be the month to complain about your boss on Facebook or post a picture of him dancing with a lampshade on his head at the company party. No, play it safe.

Jupiter was so incredibly supportive of that new moon - in a near-perfect mathematical angle, so Jupiter will shower that new moon with radiant luck. Because Jupiter is in your house of earned income, this new moon should help you see more salary, and it will be directly related to the day-to-day project you are working on now. Mars is currently in Virgo, in your sixth house of assignments, so it is clear that your project is complex, requiring detailed attention to every facet. Give it the attention it warrants, and you will impress higher ups. This new moon is all about your reputation and professional victories, and shows you can score a big one now.

Your home situation will be your full focus at the full moon in Cancer 18 degrees, January 9, plus or minus five days. This full moon is a sweet one, and unlike the new moon in your career house that I just discussed, which is mixed, this one is sheer goodness. You will have a marvelous opportunity to settle things to your complete satisfaction. That full moon is positive and makes a comforting nod to Mars. If you have any matter that is home or family-related, that is your time to act on it.

It will be time for fun once you get to January 23, the new moon in Aquarius, 3 degrees. Aries born near March 22 plus five days (or minus two days) will benefit most from this lovely new moon January 23. You will also benefit if you have any planets at 3 degrees of air or fire signs: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, Gemini, Libra, or Aquarius.

This new moon will send a text to Uranus, and Uranus will swing into action, helping you get enormous help from a friend, and it will come out of the blue! You may get help from a group that you belong to as well. News will be surprising, unexpected, and quite touching. Just you wait until you see how lively life is about to get! You have a really fun time and may make the association of many new friends. Uranus is the planet that urges us to help those in need, so you may volunteer to be on the committee to help a charity or humanitarian project.

Mercury will be in good angle to Mars at the new moon, so you may travel that following weekend, January 28-29, a great time to go. I love that Mercury will reach out to Uranus - you may hop in your car and just drive to points unknown. Enjoy yourself, dear Aries, as you truly deserve time to relax and enjoy all life has to offer.

Most romantic dates and generally favorable dates for other purposes too: January 1, 5, 7-12, 21-22, 24, and 28-29.

Happy New Year, dear Aries!

Summary

Your housing situation, or a family member, will need attention within four days of the full moon, January 9. Mars will be helpful to you now, so if your to-do list runs long at work, don't be concerned, as you will be able to tick off the home-related items on your list quite rapidly. If you need to make a decision about an apartment or house that, too, can be settled in no time flat, and you'll likely feel good about the decision you make.

Career opportunities that arose just prior to the year-end holidays need your swift attention. You may still be shaking the confetti from your hair as you wake up on January 1, but if you are serious about getting ahead, you'll have not a moment to spare - jump on emerging career opportunities. First, get organized. The career position that will be on the table will be a superb one, and the financial compensation generous, but when you shoot for the job, your aim must be very steady. You will encounter considerable competition for your prize, but knowing that has never deterred an Aries!

Finding all the time you need to streamline your persuasion points to make a memorable presentation won't be easy, as you appear to have a heavy daily project load. Ask a friend or relative to help you practice your interview skills or have a co-worker read your presentation letter for any possible errors. What's at stake is a career victory that will garner you considerable respect and admiration, and could easily change the way the industry views your talents, and in so doing, change your future course. You are now in a cycle of considerable financial reward, so you need to nab your prize (or get a hefty raise approved) before Jupiter, the good fortune planet, leaves Taurus in mid-June. This month, January's first week, as well as January 11 to 13, will be ideal for having meetings, when the Sun and Mars will be in sync.

Mars is your ruler and will go retrograde from January 23 until April 13. This means you need to work fast in January, getting as much done as you can well in advance of the third week of the month. Call ahead to get your foot in the door to see prospective employers or, if self-employed, to pitch clients quickly. The process will probably take time and may not be concluded until early July, but what matters is that you start now.

Mars is the planet of energy and drive, but when retrograde, is weak and less helpful, meaning the end of January, February, March, and early-April 2012 will have a slower-than-usual pace. Mars may bring a temporary setback when he retrogrades, so be ready. If this should happen, take things in stride. Review your assumptions, and make refinements to your strategy. You can succeed, but you must be willing to tweak things to get them into proper alignment with the needs of the marketplace.

The new moon January 23 will bring sparkle to your social life and with Mars sliding backward, you'll have more time than you did earlier to enjoy meeting new friends and connecting with old ones. This would be an ideal time to join a club or group, in real life or in social media. You may want to volunteer for charitable or humanitarian work or help a political candidate you believe in.

Late January is the right time to volunteer for a cause - you can now make a big difference to the organization you join and help yourself in the new skills you learn too. Any managerial skills you learn by giving your time can later be put to good use in your "real job." It's impossible to help others without helping yourself too - you'll find this to be true if you roll up your sleeves.

Dates to Note for Aries

Settle a housing situation at the full moon, plus or minus four days, January 9.

Career opportunities are bursting open - be ready to follow up the moment you are back from the holidays, from day one.

Mars will retrograde from January 23 to April 13, slowing down goals dear to you, as Mars is your ruler.

Work-related meetings will go very well January 12 and 13.

Your social life will take off once the new moon arrives, January 23.

You may want to get involved with a charity at month's end as well.

Most romantic dates and generally favorable dates for other purposes too: January 1, 5, 7-12, 21-22, 24, and 28-29.

Why My Book Is Late

By Susan Miller

All year I was listening hard to all that you asked me on Twitter and Facebook. I realized how valiantly you were all coping with the challenges that a difficult world economy had wrought, and how dearly you needed to know which areas of your life would be bring you the greatest progress and happiness.

I had a manuscript almost ready, but thinking about your words, I felt I had to add much more material to it. What you asked me and what you said on my social networking pages kept echoing in my mind. So in November, I announced to my team I was lengthening the book dramatically. I was adding chapters and doubling each sign's chapter from what I had already written, which are now almost four times as long as my regular Astrology Zone forecasts. Only you can be the judge of what I have done, but I feel this book, still in progress, is the best book I have ever written. It would be easier if I didn't have to stop to write 40,000 words for Astrology Zone each month, but of course, I would always do that!

I set out to create a book that would help you every day of the year. Why, I asked myself, write a good book when I could stretch and push myself to create a great one for you. By now you know I am a perfectionist. My revamped book is the very best I have ever done. It is not finished yet, but I am working every day around the clock on it. It will be wrapped in joy and happiness and it will be of value to you. I have no idea when it will be done, but I know there is great urgency. I am working every minute on it.

There are authors of books out there that pretend to be my book and many of you have written to say you bought their book in error. You only noticed when, you said, it didn't sound like me. My book, a quality paperback book, is not sold in stores; you can only get it here on my website. My book's cover is all over this website?it must look like this cover and have the title, "The Year Ahead 2012" by Susan Miller.

You asked about digital versions. My book WILL be available on all versions of Kindle, Nook, and iPad. Apple has a long waiting process for publishers posting a manuscript, so the other two digital versions, on Nook and Kindle, will appear before the iPad.

Please check my Twitter account @AstrologyZone for updates. You do not have to tweet or participate on Twitter to read my posts. They are public. (Go to http://www.twitter.com/astrologyzone). My tweets are automatically linked to my Facebook account, and there my name is "Susan Miller Astrology Zone"

In the meantime, please order my calendar, The Year Ahead 2012, which is ready. I carefully wrote in each important day, and all the explanations are in easy-to-understand English. I do not use glyphs or astrological language in my calendar; everything is explained in a crystal clear way for a layman. I know you just want to know what is coming and how to plan for it!

Also, I will be presenting all-day talks in Philadelphia (January 21), New York City (February 4), and Los Angeles (February 11). Please scroll above to see the information about those events. Most people find them very helpful!

To create my book and calendar, and to prepare for my talks, I memorized 312 charts (13 lunar months times 12 signs, times two lunations each month: a new moon and a full moon). I started this in April. I memorize all the aspects because sometimes something happening in one part of the sky will influence an aspect happening in another part of the sky - no aspect can be taken alone, by itself. For example, last year, on what was to be the luckiest day of the year, April 6 (Jupiter conjunct the Sun), we also had Saturn opposed to the Sun on the same day, completely washing out the happiness of the luckiest day of the year. I didn't even discuss it in my book - how could I? You see how I have to be vigilant to all parts of the sky for you - you are depending on me to do my homework thoroughly.

Many of you know my mother was extremely ill with pneumonia this summer and in intensive care and then in a nursing home for physical therapy for four weeks. My sister and I were at her side every day to help bring her back to her former strong health by showing her love and attentiveness to all her medical matters, and when she could eat, we brought homemade meals. Little Mom is well now. She is home, and doctors, who were ready to give up on her, cannot get over the remarkable recovery she has made.

I don't regret one minute the time I gave her to get her well again, even though it did take time away from my writing. She has no one but my sister and I to depend upon - together we worked as a team to get Little Mom well. This year the holidays were especially poignant, as we watched her blue eyes sparkle with delight in being with her four grandchildren, who had gathered around her at home to give her love, presents, and kisses.

Please forgive me for being late. If you need to call America Direct Book to check on anything, my publisher, Arthur Heydendael will be happy to answer your questions. His office number is 914.271.3640.

I feel that someday no one will know the conditions under which I wrote my book. My book has to stand on its own, and that's why I need to write the very best book I can for you, especially when just about everyone is feeling the difficulties of the times. I send you this note with great love and gratitude, and sincere wishes for a very Happy New Year.

My Video On Demand TV program will be available at no charge each month to 16 million Comcast subscribers who have purchased a digital package. I have finished taping five months of shows for you.

Comcast is only seen in the USA, so for now, we are sorry, there will be no foreign markets planned. Please tell us if you don't see my show in your market.

In most cases, you will find me on "GET LOCAL" where you turn to see your News, Weather, Sports - and my horoscopes! These are the markets that you will most likely find my show under GET LOCAL:

Atlanta, Augusta, Baltimore, Central PA, Washington, DC, New Jersey, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Richmond, Chattanooga, Denver, Fresno, Sacramento, San Francisco, Little Rock, Michigan, New England, Twin Cities, Portland, South Florida, Spokane, Sarasota, and Chicago.

Please note: Comcast is having server problems in some neighborhoods that carry my show in Chicago. If customer support told you my show was cancelled, it was in error. My show is being shown all over America.

If you don't find me in GET LOCAL in the market listed, or you don't live in one of the cities listed but are a Comcast subscriber with Digital Package, then please look under "CUTTING EDGE" and then, under that, "PARANORMAL" - my show would be in this area. Look for Horoscopes or Astrology Zone. I am so happy to know my show is back for a new season. Please let me know how you like the show, and if you have other ideas you'd like me to consider.To write to us about my Comcast show, please write to press@astrologyzone.com

FIND OUT ABOUT YOUR NATAL CHART

Discover your rising sign, the most important element to learn!

If you don't know your rising sign, you won't get quite as much out of my monthly forecasts on Astrology Zone or my daily forecasts on cell phones (or delivered to your email box daily by Daily Astrology Zone). You could also get so much more from my Year Ahead 2012 book if you know your rising sign, as a rising sign helps to set up some of the timing in a chart.

To have your chart done, you would need to know your precise time of birth, to the minute. If you do know it, then you would be wise to have your natal chart done. Once you do, you can memorize your rising sign, for it will never change. This explains why all Aries are not alike, or all Gemini - we are all a beautiful, rich combination of the rising sign and Sun sign, as well as a tapestry of the other planets. On the day you were born, the pattern in the sky will never be repeated in time or space - you are truly unique. What a magical piece of information!

Your natal chart will never change - it stays the same for life! You need only do your natal chart once and never again. Once you do have your chart, you will get more insight into your innate gifts and personality strengths.

I write one book one at a time for each customer, so I would love to do one for you! We try to keep costs down and reasonable, so the cost is $49.95 plus handling and shipping, and it takes a little over two weeks to receive.

To order go to this link and choose the purple and yellow, adult version book,

(We have another version for babies that has a pink cover.)

Would you like to see a sample of my newsletter on love?

Later, in your own email box, you will be asked to confirm that you signed up - don't forget to respond. (If you don't confirm your willingness to be on the newsletter, it won't arrive. This is a way to protect your privacy, so that others don't sign up for you.)

If you are a longtime reader, you know that I am careful about not sending lots of newsletters. You are busy, so when I write to you, I will always have a good reason - to share important news you can use. I would rather err on the side of caution and send out too few than flood your email box with too many correspondences.

In my newsletters I will discuss astrology and philosophical topics. I will also make one or two announcements. You will not get "spam" from me - I don't like getting those kinds of emails, and I won't send you anything I would not want to receive myself.

If you are not sure if you signed up or not, try entering your email address. If we already have it, you will get an instant message that says so. If you are new to the list, you will be asked to confirm your desire to be on the list with an instant email in your email box.

Your name and email address will never be sold, lent, or given away. I value your privacy. I see my newsletter, as well as Twitter, as a good way for you and me to stay in touch.

Please add "Astrologyzone" to your address book to ensure you will get your newsletter. If you feel you did sign up but never received my newsletter, it may have mistakenly landed in your spam box. Please let your provider know you would like to receive my newsletters.

It's fun for me to have a venue like a newsletter to discuss topics at length that would not quite go on Astrology Zone.
