Overview

Sometimes, it's easier to have fun when you are not trying so hard to have fun. In other words: Relax! If you're bored, don't put too much effort into planning something that will entertain you. Instead, why not just go outside and walk around for a while? Engage with the world, and soon enough, interesting things will come your way, organically. You don't have to plan everything -- you just have to put yourself in situations where something special is likely to occur.

Schoolwork may be slowing you down quite a bit, but if you throw the full weight of your brain behind it, you should be able to find a new approach that will make life a whole lot easier in the future.

Living too much in the future can mean that you might be neglecting everything in your present. Use Monday and Tuesday to be honest about your life as it is, not about how life will be once a certain event takes place. The middle of the week is a good time to practice both being in the now and laying the groundwork for your future. Friday through Sunday, pay attention to how you're feeling. Learning to fully acknowledge and then handle emotions is a skill that will always improve your current situation, no matter what it is.

As this year gets started on the 1st and 2nd, you're in a deeply relatable space. You're relating well with your friends. If you have a partner, you're spending a lot of energy thinking about your relationship. If you're single, you're thinking about what you really want in a relationship. And as for your relatives, don't forget them! Call up your favorite auntie and wish her a happy, happy, happy New Year. What you want, deeply, on the 6th and 7th is to communicate your deepest feelings with another person. You should definitely do this! Find a good listener and pour your heart out. By the 11th, you'll be happiest if you're surrounded by friends and family. Why not host a potluck? It would be just what the doctor ordered to cure those mid winter blues everybody is suffering from. You're in a good place to flirt your little heart out on the 15th and 16th. So flirt, flirt, flirt your little heart out! You could end up with some pretty easy-to relate-to results. Everybody has a few downer days, and the important thing is to figure out an effective way to deal with them. Work on that on the 21st. Harmony is what you want on the 26th. Look for beauty, and you will find it on the 31st.

Year 2012 Overview

Although many have secretly been dreading the arrival of 2012, you've personally been looking forward to it. That's because karmic taskmaster Saturn has been doing a number on your life over the past two-plus years. Relationship lessons have been relentless throughout this time. If you haven't made important decisions about where to commit - and where to quit - these are your final months to do so. Don't wait another 30 years to get clear on what you truly want in your relationships. You'll be in the throes of Saturn's testing until October, when it moves into your neighboring sign, Scorpio. Consider this your final exam!

Jupiter will be in its fellow Venus-ruled sign of Taurus, making a magical aspect to your stars for a good portion of 2012. Jupiter's lucky presence in your sector of sexuality, transformation and other people's money brings every material and emotional resource you could ever want or need. You'll have no problem attracting the proper support to fund your current or future projects. This is also the year for coming into your true power by transforming all the dead weight of your past. Change looks good on you, Libra. You've been shedding layers of karma, and now you're about to reap the wonders of renewal.

World travel beckons in 2012, so pack your bags! The spring-summer eclipse patterns activate your travel sector in May and June, and Venus is in your travel sector between April and August. During the retrograde phase in May and June, you may want to be lay low or avoid more intricate itineraries. Mars will be spending the entire first half of the year in your sector of sleep, unconscious processes and dreams. This could create some inner turbulence (if not all-out insomnia) if you don't give yourself enough expressive and physical outlets. As always, it's about finding balance, Libra.
