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:

Feb 8, 2000 (Feb 7, 2000 to Apr 11, 2000)Sun 1st H.

TRANSITING SUN IN THE FIRST HOUSE--When the Sun is transiting this first house of self and new beginnings, the focus will be on where you are and where you want to be with your personal life. These influences will help you to make an accurate assessment of your personality at this time in your life and also provide the energy to make changes toward a more powerful and comfortable personality. You will be more forceful with others and will be able to make a better impression upon them from a position of power. You must be careful with this power however, because you may not be sensitive and empathetic to their feelings. Just because you are finding ways to change yourself doesn't give you the power to change others. This transit is more self-directed and can tend to shut out the outer world with its problems and needs. For this reason, now may not be the best time for team-working with others on group projects. On the other hand, the renewed energy of this transit can help you to achieve more difficult tasks than before, and when carefully utilized, can also make great contributions toward the fulfillment of shared goals. However the strong focus is on you. You have a valid need to express yourself now, and if this need is not fulfilled it will hold you back in your future self-confidence and personal growth.

Feb 9, 2000 (Feb 8, 2000 to Mar 4, 2000)Ven 12th H.

TRANSITING VENUS IN THE TWELFTH HOUSE--Venus transiting in the houses influences how you may express yourself socially, romantically, and artistically in the various areas of your life. In the twelfth house it brings a love of quiet and solitude. You can be secretive about social contacts and romance--and may even have secret love affairs. Your feelings are sensitive and finely tuned to the feelings of others, giving you much compassion--but also allowing you to be easily hurt. Much of your personal behavior will be motivated from an unconscious level. You will have a deep emotional and artistic attunement to the unconscious mind during this transit, which can bring you some intense artistic inspiration.

Feb 29, 2000 2 PM(Feb 28, 2000 to Mar 1, 2000)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 1, 2000 3 PM(Feb 29, 2000 to Mar 2, 2000)Mars Trine MC

TRANSITING MARS TRINE THE MIDHEAVEN--Trines are supportive, and this one is no exception. This transit brings great zeal and energy. You feel positive, optimistic, and self-confident. You are likely to find the physical resources and necessary material to accomplish any task at hand. Personal goals and ambitions are enhanced. Your physical energy is high and you inspire the confidence and cooperation of others. Some vigorous physical activity is indicated.

TRANSITING URANUS TRINE NATAL SUN--This transit can make you eager for change and growth in your life. You look to new ideas and new experiences for insights that will make your life more real. You could encounter new relationships, new friends, or even a new love that will help you to experience yourself as you never have before. Now is a good time to begin new health maintenance programs to enhance you physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Almost anything you begin during this transit will lead to new experiences and are likely to fulfill the goals you set for them. You can now make changes that will make your life better later on. Don't neglect this transit's opportunities.

Mar 2, 2000 (Feb 26, 2000 to Mar 7, 2000)Jup Conj Ven

TRANSITING JUPITER CONJUNCT NATAL VENUS--This transit can help smooth over difficulties in relationships with others, as well as promote friendships. If a new love interest should come into your life during this transit, it could be a very satisfying one in which both parties could grow and develop a fine balance between love and freedom. Existing relationships could be improved in the same manner. This could be a very social time when you enjoy talking and being with other people. Your tastes could become more "elegant" under this transit, and you could be tempted to over-spend. You will want to surround yourself with beauty. On the other hand, your resources could increase during this time. Either way, you need to watch them very carefully in order to keep a balance. Beware of a tendency to over-indulge yourself at all levels--especially with food and drink.

Mar 3, 2000 1 PM(Mar 2, 2000 to Mar 4, 2000)Merc Trine Merc

TRANSITING MERCURY TRINE NATAL MERCURY--This supportive trine aspect helps your mind in everything it has to do. Your thinking is clear and precise. This is an excellent time for making plans and for communicating them, especially in business and commercial transactions. It is also a good time for travelling to see something new. Your curiosity will be highly aroused and expanding your mental and communications skills will come easy. It is a good time for learning and study.

Mar 3, 2000 10 PM(Mar 2, 2000 to Mar 4, 2000)Merc Trine Nep

TRANSITING MERCURY TRINE NATAL NEPTUNE--During this supportive trine aspect the mental Mercury and the mysteries of Neptune are in rare accord. You will be more sensitive than usual to the world around you. Your creative imagination will be stimulated, and it is a good time to get away from the humdrum. You will not want to get involved with super serious subjects, but you are sympathetic and sensitive to others' needs. You can transcend the limits of your natural intellect during this time, and it is a good period to pursue mystical and spiritual studies.

Mar 3, 2000 11 PM(Mar 3, 2000 to Mar 4, 2000)Ven Trine Sun

TRANSITING VENUS TRINE NATAL SUN--Trines are supportive and this is one of the most pleasant of all transits. It doesn't signify anything earth shattering, but is a good time for all kinds of enjoyable activity. In work you will feel a spirit of camaraderie and togetherness, making it go smoothly. However, pleasure and recreation are the highlights of this transit. It is a good time for personal and love relationships. If you feel the least bit ambitious, it is a good time for creative and craft projects, or for almost anything you may want to do. It could be a shame to waste this energy, but if you really don't want to work, just relax and enjoy.

Mar 4, 2000 7 AM(Mar 3, 2000 to Mar 5, 2000)Ven Oppos Mars

TRANSITING VENUS OPPPOSITE NATAL MARS--Oppositions usually bring challenges and/or obstacles to overcome. This transit can create serious difficulties because it can stimulate such intense sexual and creative energies. It can be a good time for a sexual relationship if both partners are in harmony. If not in tune with each other however, the strong energies can present difficulties and create conflicts. Extreme opposition can actually be dangerous. This challenge presents an opportunity for you to come to grips with inappropriate sexual feelings and to seek positive ways deal with them. When physical sexual expression is not mutual or appropriate, the energies can be sublimated into artistic creativity. This could be a time when professional counseling would be indicated.

Mar 4, 2000 7 AM(Mar 3, 2000 to Mar 5, 2000)Ven Conj Asc

TRANSITING VENUS CONJUNCT THE NATAL ASCENDANT--This transit combines the emotional influences of Venus with the "I am" in your life. This is a good time to resolve problems in personal relationships. You feel in harmony with the world. You could meet a new lover or friend, and may even be presented with a favorable financial opportunity. It is a good time to enhance artistic efforts toward fulfilling career efforts.

Mar 4, 2000 (Mar 3, 2000 to Apr 24, 2000)Ven 1st H.

TRANSITING VENUS IN THE FIRST HOUSE--Venus transiting in the houses gives us information about how you may express yourself socially, romantically, and artistically in the various areas of your life. In the first house it will influence you to be socially outgoing, with a pleasing manner and friendly appearance. It could enhance a striking physical beauty as well. You will generally have a happy outlook on life, and your natural ability to mix well with other people should contribute to both good business and exciting romantic opportunities. Artistic talent is also indicated during this time.

Mar 4, 2000 8 AM(Mar 3, 2000 to Mar 5, 2000)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.

Mar 9, 2000 (Feb 20, 2000 to Mar 30, 2000)Ura Oppos Mars

TRANSITING URANUS OPPOSITE NATAL MARS--Mars demands action and Uranus demands freedom. These energies could cause drastic situations if their influences should strongly conflict with each other: also, if they are strongly combined to rock the status quo. The transit could cause you to take more risks than usual, and with a "to hell with the consequences" attitude. The trick is to find acceptable and constructive ways to use these energies for your ultimate good and for the good of others. You need to express them, for to do otherwise could actually cause physical illness. Relationships could be strained during this time, and you will need to take care not to permanently damage or terminate those relationships that only appear to restrict your independence. Allow others the respect and freedom that you expect for yourself. Learn to be flexible and patient.

Mar 9, 2000 (Feb 20, 2000 to Mar 31, 2000)Ura Conj Asc

TRANSITING URANUS CONJUNCT THE NATAL ASCENDANT--This transit will impose an intense desire for freedom. You will begin to feel very impatient and rebellious toward restrictions of any kind. You will need to work very hard to keep from acting out impulsively for FREEDOM without evaluating the COST of that freedom. It will be an extremely difficult time for relationships--especially marriage. If you feel that marriage has inhibited your freedom, you may find it difficult to continue living up to the rules of marriage and be tempted to look for other relationhsips. If your intimate relationships feel good during this transit you will probably not have much trouble. You are likely to feel some minor resentments about your role: if you are male, the traditional role of breadwinner and head of household may become boring, and for females the traditional role of housewife could cause the same feelings. This transit gives both sexes a desire for liberation. If the relationship has been good or can be renewed, this transit can help bring about the only meaningful liberation for both: that is, the mind being free of illusions. So this is a time for complete honesty of feelings. True liberation comes from reaching the point where all life structures are taken on by choice, and your life is self-created. Many people choose a path of spiritual exploration and growth during this transit. This can certainly add positive direction and enhance the opportunities for true freedom and greater happiness throughout the rest of the life.

Mar 9, 2000 (Feb 20, 2000 to Aug 16, 2000)Ura 1st H.

TRANSITING URANUS IN THE FIRST HOUSE--This transit primarily indicates a drive for freedom, which may appear to others to be selfish rebellion. It could indicate many changes, beginning with the way you observe your relationship to the rest of the world. Old limitations you have previously observed will be removed, and old patterns will be broken down. This could involve changing and releasing things that have been important to you in the past. Anything or any condition that keeps you from freedom to be yourself is likely to be terminated. This could include relationships, jobs, homes, and schools. It is a good time to begin to open up to new experiences and to explore new kinds of awareness and conscious-expanding activities. Studies of metaphysics, mysticism, and the occult could be very rewarding. If you try to hang onto anything that restricts your personal growth and new awareness, you will become very uncomfortable and irritable. Try to find what it is and remove it. The avenues to new perception are open, and you need to receive this perception in order to gain the new tools for your future life.
