Monday is the Sun’s first full day in a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart, of the month long wind down of your old solar year, but while your birthday month and new solar year is still a month away, as she moves into her second week in Leo, Venus is already opening new doors and marking out new paths and options. While for now Venus is alone and this is a chance to give your heart a voice and to start forming your desires, hopes and aspirations for the coming year, instead of having to wait a month for the start of your new solar year, this is preparation for Jupiter’s return next Tuesday to begin a new 12 year Jupiter cycle of expansion. With Jupiter in his last full week in a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart, his and the Sun’s considerable weight and influence are on the past, while Venus has your heart looking to the future. Meanwhile, thanks to the Moon’s departure from your income sector on Monday, with a chance to move into the new working week and Mars’ last in your career sector with a sharp nose for money from the start.
