You're beginning a powerful two-year cycle that puts strong emphasis on creativity, romance and children and while these areas may be occasionally stressful over the next 12 to 14 months, you'll find that they'll all be a tremendous source of growth. Developing an artistic talent, getting engaged or conceiving a child are among the possibilities. A powerful mentor could play a role in your love life today. Let yourself fall under their spell.

A bank or lending institution could enable you to buy a dream home. Alternatively, you could use this money to make gorgeous improvements to your existing abode. No matter how you slice it, domestic matters will assume an increasing importance over the next two years. If you do buy a home, you'll expend lots of time and energy turning it into a gorgeous oasis. An elderly relative may be coming to live with you, too.

At long last, your financial situation seems to be improving. Money may have been scarce these past two years, but you learned some powerful lessons along the way. Now that you're more resourceful, it will be easier to add money to savings. Shift your focus to improving relations with a sibling or neighbour. Building strong ties within your family and community can take the pressure off a romantic partner.

A great deal of responsibility has been heaped on your plate for the past two years. You've coped with these problems admirably, and finally the Universe has given you permission to put these issues to bed. Finally, you'll be able to break free of a restrictive relationship, work environment or family entanglement. Channel your energy into creating financial independence. If you're already making good money, put some of it away into a retirement account. Invest in the future.

You're entering an intense two-year period that will enact some serious changes and although this may sound scary to a fun loving character like you, these events will actually give your life added spiritual depth. Granted, you'll be given more responsibilities. It's possible you'll find a job that eats up some of your leisure time. Alternatively, you could leave the single life by taking on a spouse. Bonds can strengthen with older relatives, too.

Don't be surprised if you find yourself slowly withdrawing from the social scene over the next two years. You'll learn that solitude really can be bliss during this quiet period. Instead of mixing with large groups of people, you'll be devoting more time to solo projects and catching up on your reading. If you've been struggling with an addiction, take this opportunity to get the treatment you need to recover. A new day is dawning.

Although you've always been a social butterfly, you're about to become more selective about the company you keep. You're tired of scattering your energy over a huge group of casual acquaintances. Over the next two years, you'll narrow your focus to a small group of friends who have stuck by you through thick and thin. An older person with a great deal of life experience could take on a larger role in your life.

Career prospects are beginning to pick up, but you'll have to gather all your strength to make the most of them. It's possible you'll be putting in longer hours with the hopes of gaining a promotion or practical experience and while it feels as though you're invisible to authority figures, the reverse is true. Actually, your bosses are watching you carefully, trying to decide whether you're the right person for the job. Look sharp!

Your finances are beginning to pick up, much to your evident relief. Now you're able to turn your attention to bigger and better things. If you've had difficulty in the job market, you may want to go for an advanced degree. The trick is to study a subject that's close to your heart. Wouldn't it be nice to earn money by doing something you love? Being educated abroad is a distinct possibility.

It's very important to keep your finances in order for the next eighteen months. If you're in credit card debt, devise a plan to become financially independent. It may take a few years, but the results will be worth it. If you don't have any outstanding bills, try to keep it that way. Plan to make regular savings while you're at it. The more conservative you are about money, the better.

Your love life will be under the microscope as the next twelve moths pass. If you're single, you may feel increasing pressure to find a mate. This pressure could come from within, or from some well-meaning relatives. Try to keep the situation in perspective. It will be much easier to meet someone special when you relax and have fun. If you're in a relationship, keep in constant communication with your partner. Be attentive to their needs.

Leading a healthier lifestyle is imperative over the next two years. Eating nutritious meals, taking regular exercise and getting plenty of rest will help you cope with work related challenges. It looks as though you'll be given more responsibilities on the job. Alternatively, you may be busy searching for a position that is more in keeping with your current lifestyle. By treating your body like a temple, you'll pass this test with flying colours.
