January
Mercury: January 5- January 25
Mercury goes retrograde four times this year, and each retrograde lasts for about three weeks’ time. This is a good time
to take stock of where you are and come to terms with the reality. It's time for you to lay low, process, and digest what you know, rather than explore the uncharted territory. It's a time for the re's: review, retrospect, renewal. Try not to sign new contracts or buy new things. If you must do so, be sure you read and reread contracts carefully, and if you must start a new job, be prepared that it may not turn out exactly as you had originally been led to believe. That may not be a bad thing.
Jupiter: January 7- May 9
When Jupiter is Retrograde, expansion or
growth in your life stops abruptly. You feel as if your energy has all been zapped, making it more difficult to get things accomplished. When Jupiter is retrograde, there is no real expansion or forward-progress. The good news, is that people who tend to cling to you, or suck the life- force out of you, fall away at this time. It's a good time to plan for the future. When the Rx ends, expansion takes places quickly, so be ready for when it comes!
March
Saturn: March 25- August 13
Saturn goes retrograde for about a period
of 4 and a half months. During this time there may be unwanted delays and obstacles in your life. Everything will seem to require more effort on your part. Re-evaluate your plans
and strengthen your physical and mental self. Saturn
retrograde period helps you to review your current status and design new plans that will be successful when the Rx is over.
April
Mars: April 17-June 29
When Mars goes retrograde, it indicates
that it is time to pull back the reins, particularly if you are an impulsive decision-maker. This is a time to learn how to control your senses, emotions, and inner potential and channel them toward your goal. Relationships are also an issue during this time. Be sure you communicate effectively with your partner, family, and friends.

Pluto: April 18- September 26
When Pluto goes retrograde you'll feel a nagging need to search deep within you for answers to the big questions.This is a really good time for spiritual cleansing, and discovering your personal truths. Take a lot of "me time" right now. Meditate, go to the beach, the river, or the woods and really connect with nature- just the two of you. If you do the work during this time, the rewards will be tremendous.
June
Neptune: June 13-November 19
Neptune's retrograde blurs line between reality and fantasy, taking you deep into the dreaming lands. Your intuition will be keener than ever right now, so pay close attention to what it says to you. You will receive inspiration from things and people
around you during this time. Boundaries are nearly non-existent, so be wary of simply taking bold steps without clear-headed thinking involved. We tend to be more forgiving of others during this time, but can also be more naive.
July
Uranus: July 29-December 29
This is a good time to foster your sense of creativity. The world will be loaded with new
ideas, avenues and experiments, and they all seem like yours for the taking. You get to choose your path and direction at this time. Some of you may feel a sense of anxiety during this time, particularly if you like rules and regulations. Uranus in retrograde is even more electrically charged than it normally would be. Aquarians thrive during this time.
