This report is titled the "Destiny and Decisions Forecast" because there is an element of the future that you cannot change; this is your destiny. But you also have choices and options available to you; these are your decisions.
This report predicts where the planets are in the current time period, when they will be forming aspects to your natal planets, what influences these aspects bring, and how long they will last--as far into the future as you wish to look. THIS is truly PREDICTIVE ASTROLOGY!
Our report goes beyond the limitations of most astrological forecast reports in two very important ways: (1) we go into a much more detailed interpretation for the heavier aspects that could have a greater impact on your life, and (2) we include some suggestions for you to consider regarding how you may deal with the influences. This should eliminate the need for further counseling in most cases.
Your forecast begins on the next page. If the time period for an interpretation is, for example, given as "July 1, 1999 (June 15, 1999 to July 15, 1999)", then it starts in mid-June, reaches greatest intensity around July 1, and ends in mid-July. The first date listed is the time when the influence has reached maximum strength.
An influence may last for as little as a week to as long as half a year or so.
To obtain maximum benefit from this report, we recommend a periodic study and review of the information as the time period unfolds--once a week, at least, and more often when there are significant things going on in your life. It is always good to keep a diary or a journal to get a sense of the timing of the transits and a history of how they affected your life.
Following is the data from your natal chart with which the transiting planets form aspects:

Mar 2, 2004 (Feb 29, 2004 to Apr 21, 2004) Mars 8th H.
TRANSITING MARS IN THE EIGHTH HOUSE--Mars transiting the houses influences the areas of life in which you express your actions and desires, and where you need to use energy and initiative in order to get results. In the eighth house transit, energy and initiative are emphasized, with strong desires and emotional intensity. You are likely to have a powerful sex drive with the aggressiveness to use it constructively. Psychic power, afterlife, and the occult will be subjects for your study and consideration during this time. You are likely to be secretive in many of your activities and may prefer working alone.
Mar 10, 2004 (Mar 10, 2004 to Mar 23, 2004) Merc 6th H.
TRANSITING MERCURY IN THE SIXTH HOUSE--Transiting Mercury in the houses deals with the practical affairs that occupy your mind and shows what areas of activity will be influenced by your thoughts and communications. In the sixth house, it indicates that specialized knowledge and skills will be acquired to deal with the kind of work you do. You are methodical and efficient and will keep up with the latest research and techniques in your field. You are concerned with duty, personal hygiene and correct dress. You may have a tendency to overwork and need to watch out for excessive perfectionism.
Mar 17, 2004 (Mar 16, 2004 to Apr 10, 2004) Sun 6th H.
TRANSITING SUN IN THE SIXTH HOUSE--When the Sun transits this house of your Natal chart, it influences the departments of life most strongly affected by the individual will and power potential. You may have delicate health with your Sun in the sixth house, requiring proper attention to dietary habits. You will have a tendency to seek recognition through your work and service, and you take pride in your work. You like to be appreciated however, and if you feel you are not, you will change jobs. There probably will be no difficulty in obtaining well-paid positions, and your inclinations will be toward a career related to health--such as nursing, pharmacology, counseling, or medicine. Your self-esteem and dignity seem to be closely linked to your work and the service you give.
Mar 21, 2004 (Mar 3, 2004 to Apr 11, 2004) Ura Trine Moon
TRANSITING URANUS TRINE NATAL MOON--This transit presents you with an excellent opportunity to make positive changes in your emotional life, personal surroundings, and relationships with certain friends. You are able to experience your emotions in new and different ways. Events from the past could surface and be more easily dealt with from a new point of view. You could experience friends in a new way, especially if you have drifted into a routine with them in which they have been taken for granted. This transit makes it easier to get rid of unconscious attitudes and negative habits and routines. You can do this gracefully during this time with minimal stress and upsets. These kinds of changes will be more difficult to make at other times, so take advantage of the emotional support and understanding this transit brings.
Mar 22, 2004 (Mar 21, 2004 to Apr 28, 2004) Ven 8th H.
TRANSITING VENUS IN THE EIGHTH HOUSE--Venus transiting in the houses influences how you express the Venus attitudes in the various areas of your life and how you may be affected by those things Venus rules. In the eighth house it indicates the possibility of financial gain through marriage, other partnerships, and social relations. It often indicates an inheritance, or that you might even marry for money. You could have a highly sensuous nature now with an emphasis on sex, so that the physical side of a relationship could be very important to you. Your emotions are extremely intense, and you will need to guard against jealousy and possessiveness.
Mar 23, 2004 5 PM(Mar 22, 2004 to Mar 25, 2004) Mars Sqr Mars
TRANSITING MARS SQUARE NATAL MARS--This is a good transit for getting work done, provided you can control your impulsive behavior. Your ego energies are high and you could assert yourself very inappropriately if you are not careful. You may feel like you could conquer the world, and could issue unnecessary challenges to the people around you. On the other hand, you may have to deal with someone else who is doing the same things to you. In that case it is best to be patient as long as possible, only fighting back if there are important issues at stake. It will be very difficult to endure any kind of frustration during this time. Take care of your physical health under this transit, and avoid taking any unnecessary chances which could result in accidents.
Mar 23, 2004 5 PM(Mar 23, 2004 to Mar 24, 2004)Merc Oppos Asc
TRANSITING MERCURY OPPOSITE THE NATAL ASCENDANT--Oppositions usually bring obstacles to be overcome. If you feel confused and don't know how to proceed, this would be a good time for consulting an appropriate "expert", or counselor, for advice. (Maybe an Astrologer?) Communications should be good with spouse or partner. Old misunderstandings and current problems could be discussed openly. It could be a good time for giving and receiving things to be "gotten off the chest"--within reason, of course.
Mar 23, 2004 (Mar 23, 2004 to May 29, 2004) Merc 7th H.
TRANSITING MERCURY IN THE SEVENTH HOUSE--Transiting Mercury in the houses deals with the practical affairs that occupy your mind and shows what areas of activity will be influenced by your thoughts and communications. In the seventh house, you are concerned with communication and mental cooperation with others. You may prefer to work in a partnership rather than individually, and your tendency to seek mental companionship may cause you to marry an intellectual. Other relationships are also likely to be with well educated and intelligent persons. You have a general aptitude for psychology and may be skillful in mediation, arbitration and counseling.
Mar 26, 2004 10 AM(Mar 25, 2004 to Mar 27, 2004) Merc Sqr MC
TRANSITING MERCURY SQUARE THE NATAL MIDHEAVEN--Squares produce challenges to be faced and obstacles to be overcome, and this one is no exception. Mercury, the planet of mind and communications is "squared off" against your Midheaven influences toward goals, profession, and recognition. This is a good time for re-thinking and challenging your possibilities of success before carrying out plans you have been making. Give a reality check before making decisions, and before communicating with others about important matters. Your mind will be busy about career and/or job concerns. Let others communicate with you, and listen. You need to keep your mind occupied with matters important to you during this time, and cooperation will further your cause. Seek spiritual guidance for the universal plan for your career, etc.
Mar 27, 2004 1 AM(Mar 26, 2004 to Mar 28, 2004) Ven Conj Sat
TRANSITING VENUS CONJUNCT NATAL SATURN--This is not the typical "feel-good" Venus transit, but it is not negative. It centers around love and affection, adding discipline and practicality to relationships. There could be difficulty in some relationships, and occasionally, it might mean saying goodbye to a loved one. You may seek the advice of an older person regarding relationships during this transit. You are likely to act with restraint, so there is not the usual self-indulgence in buying sprees like in some other Venus transits.
Mar 27, 2004 9 PM(Mar 26, 2004 to Mar 28, 2004) Sun Oppos Ura
TRANSITING SUN OPPOSITE NATAL URANUS--Things will be different and unexpected under this transit. Whatever you think is normal--it won't be. There could be extreme restlessness in relationships and something completely unexpected may come to light. In business or other partnerships, sudden revisions or adjustments may become necessary because of unexpected revelations. You are likely to be extremely restless, also. You need to focus on what it is that is making you feel that way, and what it is that you want. It may not be the time to go after it (whatever "it" is), but it is important for you to find out. The Sun in this transit is trying to show you certain elements of your interaction with the world which you have not considered before, and their relevance to you which you have not adequately recognized before. This energy needs to be discharged in positive ways lest it break out in accident-prone behavior.
Mar 28, 2004 7 PM(Mar 27, 2004 to Mar 29, 2004) Ven Sxtil MC
TRANSITING VENUS SEXTILE THE NATAL MIDHEAVEN--This transit makes you think about your relationships with others in positive ways. You are in an open and compromising mood. It is a good time for understanding those who are close to you. You will have a tendency to give more than to receive, and to understand more than you need to. It is also a good time to express artistic creativity, and to appreciate the arts.
Mar 30, 2004 8 AM(Mar 29, 2004 to Mar 31, 2004)Merc Oppos Ven
TRANSITING MERCURY OPPOSITE NATAL VENUS--This is a very light transit, and you may not feel it unless you expect it. It can produce some pleasant feelings, and your mind will tend to turn to lighter subjects. However, it is not a favorable time for accomplishing tasks that require discipline and strong mental applications. Personal relationships will be pleasant, and even disagreements can be worked out amicably now. Avoid inclinations to be overly self-indulgent.
Mar 30, 2004 11 AM(Mar 29, 2004 to Mar 31, 2004)Ven Trine Merc
TRANSITING VENUS TRINE NATAL MERCURY--Trine aspects are most supportive, and this is a good transit for pleasant thoughts and communication. It is an excellent time to tell someone you love them. All relationships should be pleasant and congenial. You will be light-hearted and ready for a good time. Go for a drive, have a party, or begin a long vacation. It is a good time to just sit back, relax and let your thoughts wander.
Mar 31, 2004 4 AM(Mar 30, 2004 to Apr 1, 2004) Ven Trine Plu
TRANSITING VENUS TRINE NATAL PLUTO--The Natal interpretation of this aspect is as follows: "This trine gives you an intense emotional nature which is capable of the highest form of love. It could mean a spiritual regeneration through love. You are romantic, but in a powerful, positive way. You are almost sure to have a strong sex drive, and need to be able to channel it into positive directions. When you meet your "true love", it will seem like it was "predestined". Wow!". . . . . . In the transit aspect, the personality benefits from an awareness of expansion of the Venus dimensions. If things are not good in a relationship, there can be extreme emotional difficulty. If they are good, or if they can be turned around when not so good (regenerated), this aspect can bring about a permanency of well-being.
Apr 1, 2004 8 PM(Mar 31, 2004 to Apr 2, 2004) Ven Oppos Nep
TRANSITING VENUS OPPOSITE NATAL NEPTUNE--This could be a transit of illusion and confusion where relationships are concerned. Unrealistic ideals could cause you to expect too much, and you will be disappointed. This is not a time to start a new relationship, for both parties could be deceived. You are likely to be disappointed by other loved ones, as well. You could have the illusion that you are totally unselfish to those you love and find that they are not as grateful to you as you expected and thought you deserved. The lesson here is to look for the reality and don't expect more than can be delivered. On the positive side, you could have a pleasant romantic interlude, provided you can accept it for what it is and not expect it to be permanent.
Apr 2, 2004 1 AM(Mar 31, 2004 to Apr 3, 2004) Mars Trine Ura
TRANSITING MARS TRINE NATAL URANUS--This can be a time of new activities and new encounters, some quite unexpected, that will generate both excitement and personal growth. You won't be satisfied with your daily routine, and this influence can help you break away and introduce fresh elements into your life. Psychological liberation gives you courage to break inhibitions and show off aspects of yourself that even you may not have known you had. This is a powerful aspect for new beginnings, filled with energy and courage. It is a time for personal growth and discovery which can be significant to your psychological development, as well as interesting and exciting.
Apr 4, 2004 6 AM(Apr 1, 2004 to Apr 12, 2004)Merc Trine Mars
TRANSITING MERCURY TRINE NATAL MARS-This is a good transit for all Kinds of mental work. The harmony of the trine can effectively produce cooperation with the mentality of Mercury and the actions of Mars. You can communicate positively and with confidence. Plans you make today are likely to be bolder and more innovative than usual, and you may see obstacles as challenges which spur you on. Your self-image is enhanced and you will attack any challenge with courage and confidence. It would be a good time to ask for a raise.
Apr 5, 2004 6 AM(Apr 4, 2004 to Apr 6, 2004) Ven Sqr Mars
TRANSITING VENUS SQUARE NATAL MARS--Squares usually bring challenges to be met and/or obstacles to be overcome, and this one could have serious consequences. The emotions of Venus are squared off against the actions urges of Mars. In relationships, the love interest will be enhanced and physical desire will be aroused. If the feelings are mutual the result can be great, but if not, disaster can be the result. The lessons to be learned here could be tolerance, control and respect. Venus is also the planet of the arts, and Mars the planet of action. Sublimating the sexual urges into artist interests and action can be the solution to relationship difficulties and conflicts. Professional counseling could be strongly indicated here.
Apr 9, 2004 1 PM(Apr 1, 2004 to Apr 12, 2004)Merc Trine Mars
This astrological influence (Merc Trine Mars) also occurred on Apr 4, 2004 (peak date). Please refer to this date.
Apr 10, 2004 1 AM(Apr 8, 2004 to Apr 11, 2004) Mars Sqr Sun
TRANSITING MARS SQUARE NATAL SUN--This is a high-energy transit under which you can assert yourself effectively and accomplish a great deal of work. However, you will be tested along the way and forced to validate everything you do. Anger is close to the surface. You won't be willing to back down or compromise on any issue, but that is exactly what you need to do--especially if you can do so without giving up on essential points. You can accomplish much, but will need the cooperation of others. Decisions made now will affect the next Mars transit to your natal Sun (in about six months). This is a good time for almost any kind of activity you may wish to engage in, if you can practice the art of diplomacy. It is especially good for business ventures and for dealing with authorities. You should be able to get the best possible deal for yourself. Physical energy is high and you should enjoy good health and good spirits.
Apr 10, 2004 1 AM(Apr 9, 2004 to Apr 11, 2004) Sun Oppos Asc
TRANSITING SUN OPPOSITE THE NATAL ASCENDANT--This transit brings all kinds of encounters with others. It encourages you to learn about yourself psychologically through the way you experience and affect other people. There could be ego conflicts, but it is a good time to get things out in the open. Compatible partnerships will work well unless you challenge them. It is a good time to consult with a professional expert or consultant.
Apr 10, 2004 (Apr 9, 2004 to May 8, 2004) Sun 7th H.
TRANSITING SUN IN THE SEVENTH HOUSE--When the Sun transits this house of your Natal chart, it influences the departments of life most strongly affected by the individual will and power potential. With a seventh house Sun, you may begin to express your power potential through close personal relationships, and you are likely to attract strong, capable, and close, loyal friends. Marriage is important to you, and you will attract a strong, loyal mate with enduring affection. You are especially good at public relations, gaining popularity, dealing with superiors, and showing a self-confident manner. You need to watch for tendencies to dominate others. If you catch yourself doing this, stop and respect their individual self-expression.
Apr 11, 2004 10 PM(Apr 10, 2004 to Apr 13, 2004) Ven Trine Ura
TRANSITING VENUS TRINE NATAL URANUS--Trine aspects are usually the most supportive, but this transit will make you want to break away from routine and do something different. It may even bring a little excitement into your life. This could also apply to relationships. Any relationship begun under this transit is likely to be "electric" AND exciting, but unstable and short. There could also be an unconventional arrangement in old relationships, such as agreeing to have other lovers. People you meet now will be different from your usual friends. It can be an exciting time, but not one for long term planning toward serious goals. Artistic endeavors could be quite successful, however.
Apr 13, 2004 (Mar 23, 2004 to Apr 26, 2004) Sat Sqr Ura
TRANSITING SATURN SQUARE NATAL URANUS--This can be a difficult combination as the order and discipline influences of Saturn square off against the impulsiveness and freedom demands of Uranus. This aspect can be about change, or the need for change--and change is difficult for most people, even when it is change for the better. This transit will bring about awareness of the natural changes demanded by normal growth and progress along life's path; and, if there have been unpleasant or unnatural conditions in your life that you have just been putting up with, they will become extremely onerous at this time. The tensions are likely to demand drastic action. However, if you can avoid the impulsiveness of Uranus for sudden action, this can be a time for creative change and growth without destruction of the whole structure you have built up. You may feel like other people or circumstances are interfering with your efforts to change, also. Things can start happening suddenly that increase the tensions--possibly seemingly unrelated incidents and even accidents. Relationships can become difficult during this period as the tensions affect behavior. It is important to keep open, honest communication with significant others now. Mutual understanding can get you through this, and good relationships will be tremendously strengthened. This pressure for change can certainly affect the work arena as well. If there are unpleasant areas at work that have just been tolerated, now is the time to change them. Try to avoid impulsive actions, allowing the order and discipline influences of Saturn to rule your decisions.
Apr 14, 2004 12 AM(Apr 12, 2004 to Apr 15, 2004) Sun Sqr MC
TRANSITING SUN SQUARE THE NATAL MIDHEAVEN--This transit can indicate much activity in many areas of your life. You are driven by self-interest, with emphasis on professional and personal goals, some of which may not be in harmony with the interests of others. The transit could indicate conflict with others, who may see you as selfish and uncaring. You may not feel like working with others, but you must be careful and not work against them. Much can be accomplished, but don't forget others have goals and feelings, too.
Apr 15, 2004 6 AM(Apr 13, 2004 to Apr 16, 2004)Merc Oppos Ven
TRANSITING MERCURY OPPOSITE NATAL VENUS--This is a very light transit, and you may not feel it unless you expect it. It can produce some pleasant feelings, and your mind will tend to turn to lighter subjects. However, it is not a favorable time for accomplishing tasks that require discipline and strong mental applications. Personal relationships will be pleasant, and even disagreements can be worked out amicably now. Avoid inclinations to be overly self-indulgent.
Apr 18, 2004 3 AM(Apr 16, 2004 to Apr 19, 2004) Ven Sqr Sun
TRANSITING VENUS SQUARE NATAL SUN--Square aspects usually bring obstacles to be overcome, but this one may not. This is normally a very pleasant transit with few difficulties. You are likely to feel rather self-indulgent, seeking fun and recreation and not wanting to work. You will not feel very self-assertive, but more in the mood for compromise. Love relationships are favorable, but there will be the temptation to over-indulge. Avoid arguments and disagreements. This a short transit, so relax and enjoy.
Apr 18, 2004 8 AM(Apr 17, 2004 to Apr 19, 2004) Sun Oppos Ven
TRANSITING SUN OPPOSITE NATAL VENUS--This transit brings all relationships into focus by releasing the hidden tensions and forcing them out into the open where you will have to deal with them. It is usually not an unpleasant experience, and you will encounter your SELF through your different relationships. If you will study your reactions and your handling of the situations, you could learn a lot about yourself. Good relationships could get better and not so good ones could go to pieces. This IS an opposition aspect, and it DOES create challenges. If you feel overwhelmed by interpersonal situations, it could be wise to seek help and/or discussion with a professional counselor. This aspect can make you aware of how much you need your loved ones, and help you to feel much love and tenderness toward those close to you. You will not want to be alone.
Apr 21, 2004 (Apr 19, 2004 to June 14, 2004) Mars 9th H.
TRANSITING MARS IN THE NINTH HOUSE--Mars transiting the houses influences the departments of life in which you exert energy to express your actions and desires. Ninth house transits produce interests in travel and outdoor sports: and, in religious, philosophical, social, and educational causes. You will push for the ideals you believe in, and will actively support institutions which support your views. You believe in action, not just words. You like adventure, and you may seek some broader experiences during this transit. You will need to develop tolerance and understanding for those who do not share your convictions.
Apr 21, 2004 7 AM(Apr 20, 2004 to Apr 22, 2004)Sun Trine Mars
TRANSITING SUN TRINE NATAL MARS--This is a positive transit for providing comfort in who you are. It doesn't necessarily mean you are satisfied with who you are and what you are doing, but physical and mental energy will be high. You should invest some time in physical exercise during this transit. It will not only satisfy the influences toward physical activity, but will also improve your mental and spiritual health. It will help you to understand yourself and your needs better, as well. It is always important to take advantage of every astrological influence that may give us insight into who we really are--and this transit is one of those. Now is also a good time to take a look at various projects you may have started and, for whatever reason, have not completed. Try to prioritize projects which would be most beneficial to you and those that need the most attention. Remember, the Sun is energy and Mars is action. It could be a waste not to use these energy-active influences in some positive and productive manner. If there are situations or projects in your life that need changing, or even terminating, during this transit is a good time for new beginnings.
Apr 21, 2004 8 AM(Apr 19, 2004 to Apr 22, 2004) Merc Sqr MC
TRANSITING MERCURY SQUARE THE NATAL MIDHEAVEN--Squares produce challenges to be faced and obstacles to be overcome, and this one is no exception. Mercury, the planet of mind and communications is "squared off" against your Midheaven influences toward goals, profession, and recognition. This is a good time for re-thinking and challenging your possibilities of success before carrying out plans you have been making. Give a reality check before making decisions, and before communicating with others about important matters. Your mind will be busy about career and/or job concerns. Let others communicate with you, and listen. You need to keep your mind occupied with matters important to you during this time, and cooperation will further your cause. Seek spiritual guidance for the universal plan for your career, etc.
Apr 22, 2004 10 AM(Apr 20, 2004 to Apr 23, 2004)Mars Trine Asc
TRANSITING MARS TRINE THE ASCENDANT--This aspect could provide a time of self-assurance and confidence in dealing with others. In most areas of your life, you could be able to act more decisively than usual. You know where you stand and are able to get others to let you know where they stand, also. You may want to enlarge the scope of your activities now, and you will want to find new methods of expression. This can be a period of good health, if you conserve your energies intelligently.
Apr 23, 2004 2 AM(Apr 22, 2004 to Apr 24, 2004) Sun Oppos Jup
TRANSITING SUN OPPOSITE NATAL JUPITER--This transit can cause a tendency to go overboard in anything you say or do. Oppositions provide a two-way pull, but the positive side of this one seems stronger. It can puff up your self-confidence, letting you think that nothing could go wrong. But you need to remember that oppositions can bring conflict, so don't let your self-confidence come across as arrogance. That could cause a negative, even hostile, reaction from others. This transit can enhance positive energies and optimism, giving you an expansive view of people, places and things. You may feel bigger than yourself, but may not appear that way to other people. Contain your expansive energies within realistic goals and limit your efforts to keep within parameters which you can control. Much can be achieved during this time, but you need to avoid over-commitment and unrealistic efforts. Watch your manner of expression lest you trigger opposition from others. If this happen, leave them alone and draw in your horns.
