A MESSAGE FROM

2020

Dear Astro-Friend, Does it feel like nothing is the same anymore—but your go-to strategies and solutions no longer do the trick? It’s not a “system error.” It’s the current astrological reality. If you find yourself stumbling around in a surreal state, you’re not alone. The new decade— momentous enough on its own—begins with great galactic intensity. Change is unavoidable in 2020. Our power lies in how we greet it. Year one of the new decade delivers a mandate to tear down shaky structures and rebuild on a new foundation. With an unusual party of planets in Capricorn’s cosmic construction zone—bolstered by a bootstrapping 4 Universal Year in numerology—change-making will require time and patience. When the industrious Metal Rat takes rulership of the Chinese lunar calendar in late January, we’ll need to think strategically before we act. While uncertainty looms around every “climate”—from the economic to the electoral to the ecological—our noblest mission in 2020 could be leaning into human spirit, taking care of ourselves and each other. Can we access compassion when we feel judged or defeated? Carve out moments of comfort and connection, even when there’s so much to “do”? By the end of 2020, the planets begin shifting to a communal and idealistic Aquarian sensibility. Sacrifices and hard work show signs of paying off. How will we share the fruits of our 2020 labor? And how can we lift each other as we ascend? Keep this big-picture vision in mind all year. And plan the celebration you’ll throw at the summit! There’s never been a more useful time to “plan it by the planets” and allow the stars to make sense of what’s happening. We’re in this together—and we’re cheering on each step of your journey.

The AstroTwins’ 2020 Horoscope

LEO 2020 If you’re tangled up in codependent dynamics, this eclipse will cut that cord. Or, you could part ways with 90 percent of the stuff in your storage unit that’s made you feel like a prisoner of your possessions. Downsize, declutter and free yourself from the past! After January 10, you’ll feel like traveling with a lighter pack. Another chorus of “let it go, let it go” resounds on June 21, with the new moon in Cancer. This one is a galvanizing solar eclipse, which accelerates progress. Are you ready to remap your creative and spiritual landscape? Spend the Summer Solstice at a retreat writing a memoir, dip-dying fabrics or learning how to play quartz singing bowls. With your dynamic range, the hardest part will be picking which of your passions to focus on first. On July 5, this two-year eclipse series ends with a lunar (full moon) eclipse in Capricorn. The spotlight is on your health, so book any checkups and deal with nagging aches and pains before they snowball into something bigger. Capricorn is the sign of experts. Working with a nutritionist, personal trainer or holistic healer can get your body back to fighting shape. If you’ve been implementing self-care strategies all year, you may be proudly showing off your “dangerous curves” this summer, in the spirit of Leo Jennifer Lopez. But no matter what you look like, this is a cue to love yourself unconditionally, inside and out. Your worth cannot be measured by a number on a scale. As if ! Work chaos that’s dogged you since July 2018 (or early 2019) could resolve near July 5. You may have struggled to find good help or a job that could hold your interest. Clarity arrives now to help you map The AstroTwins’ 2020 Horoscope

what your ideal customer, client or workflow looks like. Write it down, Leo! Gut feelings aren’t to be dismissed, but this eclipse calls for logic. If you’re responsible for hiring, for example, write up a job description and circulate it among your networks. Don’t just employ the first person you like. Give yourself the gift of options. You might discover someone whose traits outshine your expectations! You’re a tenacious fixed sign, but this can leave you stuck in an old way of doing things. If you’ve been resisting a new process or ignoring protocol, you’ve probably made your work ten times harder than it needs to be. Wave the white flag on July 5, Leo. Using a financial tracking app, for example, can actually be liberating once you orient yourself to its functionality. The brain space you free up by not having to store everything in your head can be used for better things…like making art or love!

Gemini/Sagittarius Eclipses: Step into a starring role. June 5, November 30, December 14 Curtains up! This year brings a new series of eclipses that will fall on the Gemini/Sagittarius axis from June 5, 2020, to December 3, 2021. Their mission? To help you learn when to step forward as the star and when to collaborate with an ensemble cast. This year, two eclipses in Sagittarius will activate your fifth house of passion, creativity and fame; one will arrive in Gemini and your collaborative, innovative eleventh house. The first one, a Sagittarius solar (new moon) eclipse on June 5, fires the starting gun, making it impossible 222

LEO 2020

to not pursue your passions. With your slumbering creativity springing to life, you could uncover a new obsession or be recognized for a talent that you’ve been quietly developing behind the scenes for years. The fifth house rules love, glamour and self-expression. This eclipse can attract a fervent fanbase while also giving you the courage to boldly “do you.” Summer love could come with a few surprise twists and turns near June 5. You may discover a burning attraction for someone who is supposed to be offlimits—perhaps because one (or both) of you is otherwise engaged. While you don’t want to just act on those feelings, especially under the charged influence of an eclipse, they are worth examining since they may portend a passion that’s missing from your life. Of course, you could find ways to scratch that itch that don’t jeopardize existing relationships. But you may feel torn and a bit out of sorts near June 5. Ready to make a big leap with your partner? You might solidify a romantic relationship, making things official near June 5. A casual connection could get suddenly serious, perhaps with baby news or a deep conversation about carving out quality time. If you’re a performer, this eclipse pushes you onto center stage. We don’t have to tell a Leo to give ‘em the show of a lifetime. Wherever you find yourself on this day, there’s only one rule: Hold absolutely nothing back!

could rouse your inner activist. You could become the surprising “voice of the people,” championing a cause or getting more politically active than you’ve been in years. If you’ve been resisting Cupid’s calling for a while, you may finally surrender to some right swipes in time for Cuffing Season. While the dating apps will deliver near November 30, hover near the mistletoe on December 14, when the solar eclipse in Sagittarius stitches your heart onto your sleeve. Strong feelings surge up, and there will be no stemming the tide once the floodgates open. A romantic relationship could rocket to the next level or fizzle out completely. This eclipse once again might bring baby news or a special piece of jewelry to show off with your NYE formalwear. Ready to make a name for yourself ? The December 14 eclipse (or within a month of it) is an ideal window for dropping an album, debuting a new look or sending your audition video to a casting director. It’s time to hear your zodiac sign’s three favorite words again: lights, camera, action! u

On November 30, the year’s lone Gemini lunar eclipse may bring exciting friendships and affiliations, or an opportunity to team up around a cutting-edge cause. Adopt a collaborative approach; the combined superpowers of your squad could bring a Level: Dom Perignon victory. This eclipse ©2019 Astrostyle. All rights reserved.

LEO MONTHLY HOTSPOTS

you overboard from the Love Boat, and plunge you smack into the sea of love. Whether you’re hoping for a reset on your current relationship or to meet someone with keeper potential, own your part in this, and take any and all necessary action!

February 23: Venus-Jupiter square Are your amorous “eyes” bigger than your “stomach”? You might not be seeing things in the most realistic light under this supersizer transit. Are you conveniently overlooking someone’s unsavory behavior? Or might you be confusing love and lust? Tap the brakes and wait for clarity to return. February 28: Venus-Pluto square This one-day, intense clash could reveal a structural flaw in the foundation of a certain relationship, and once that genie is out of the bottle, there will be no stuffing it back in. Pluto’s hits are never fun, but if you’re playing for keeps, you are going to want to know about this. Of course, even solid couples hit speed bumps. As long as you’re not in denial, you’ll know how to proceed.

FEBRUARY: CAREER HOTSPOTS February 3-March 4: Mercury in Pisces The cerebral planet will hang out in Pisces and your eighth house of joint ventures for an extended visit thanks to a retrograde from February 16 to March 9. Use this time to research and get clear on longterm financial plans. During the backspin, things that started to build momentum may unexpectedly stall, or someone might bail on a commitment. Stick it out: The right thing will come along to replace it.

February 9: Leo full moon This once-a-year powerful lunation shines its high beams on you, setting the stage for a powerful “coming-out” moment over the next two weeks. Get ready for your big reveal—perhaps involving a creative sideline gig you’re launching. February 16-March 9: Mercury retrograde As the messenger planet turns heel in your eighth house of shared resources and long-term investments, a deal or sale could be put on hold. Hold off signing contracts or financial agreements until Mercury resumes forward motion—and if possible, give it another three weeks for safe measure. February 16-March 30: Mars in Capricorn As the action planet marches through your sixth house of streamlining and organizing, you’ll be motivated to throw yourself into a project that previously felt too messy and overwhelming to take on. But now that you’re fired up, you’ll be eager to jump into it. Tip: Break it down into smaller chunks so you don’t get frustrated and quit halfway through! February 21: Mars-Uranus trine You’re in the zone today, under this auspicious trine that gives you a leg up on the competition. But really, when you’re this hot, the concept of “competition” is just theoretical. Don’t think about it: Just hit the gas and go! February 23: Pisces new moon This annual new moon in your house of shared resources could shine a light on a solid investment partner, but you need to be very thorough in your background checks and due diligence.

LEO MONTHLY HOTSPOTS dials up the idealism, which is great for creative ventures. But if money is involved, you can’t be too careful!

March MARCH: LOVE HOTSPOTS March 3: Venus-Saturn square You might be excited by the “big picture” of a certain person or relationship, but when you narrow your focus and consider the little day-to-day things, you may realize you’re not as content as you’d like to be. Today, get as much clarity as possible on what you need, but wait for Venus to swing out of Saturn’s force field to discuss it. March 4-April 3: Venus in Taurus Vixen Venus commences her annual tour of sensual Taurus and your future-oriented, status-conscious tenth house, upgrading your desires. Dates in dive bars and the nosebleed seats won’t cut it for the next month. Singles will be in the mood for sophisticated romancing, and if you’re attached, you’re ready to step out as the power couple you are! March 4-16: Mercury in Aquarius When the cosmic communicator makes its annual visit to articulate air sign Aquarius and your relationship house, your greatest turn-on will be intelligent, seductive repartee. You’ll feel comfortable enough to share your feelings, secret fantasy or even broach a sensitive subject. March 8: Venus-Uranus meetup Mix it up! When unpredictable, excitable Uranus The AstroTwins’ 2020 Horoscope

hooks up with voluptuous Venus in sensual Taurus, a little spontaneity will get the blood racing! Single? Check out some new venues or change your “swiping” strategies. And because this is your future-minded house that’s being activated, couples can have fruitful talks about upcoming plans.

March 16-April 10: Mercury in Pisces The messenger planet returns to Pisces after dipping back into Aquarius for almost two weeks. You’ve had a chance to talk through nagging issues—or decide whether you want to pursue something. Now with the messenger planet in your permabonding zone, it’s time to seal the deal with some soulful nonverbal communication. March 21-July 1: Saturn in Aquarius For the first time since 1991, solidifying Saturn lends its gravitas to your partnership house, which could act like a stress test for longtime bonds. This is the first phase of a three-year transit (until March 7, 2023). Separation is a possibility, but so is true commitment! Single? Set the bar high and you could attract someone who shares your most cherished values. March 27: Venus-Jupiter trine This auspicious and empowering mashup can give you the optimism to pursue something your heart is pounding over. If you’re feeling hopeful about a new or solid union, be bold and propose what you truly desire. Single? You may not be for long! March 28: Venus-Pluto trine Under this rare (twice-a-year) intensifying alignment, you can plumb the depths with a lover or get to know someone much better! While electric chemistry is irresistible, what will act like Gorilla 228

Yearly Highlights LOVE

WELLNESS

Tap that app! With your eleventh house of technology and community lit by three planets and an eclipse, you could find true love via a virtual connection. Or, stop resisting and let friends fix you up on blind dates. (They know you better than you think.) Coupled Pisces should mingle often as a pair. This is the year to assemble a shared friend group for dinner parties and vacations. Two Cancer eclipses, on January 10 and June 21, sizzle in your fifth house of amour. These lunar lifts bring game-changing milestones, like engagements, pregnancies or other life-changing shared experiences.

Group classes and team sports will keep you pumped in 2020, so dismount the treadmill and try everything from Pilates circuit to African dance. Anything holistic and metaphysical will appeal to you, and while Saturn is in your spiritual twelfth house from May 21 to July 1, you could try regular sessions with an energy worker. Pay attention to the “electricity” in your body, also known as chi or life force energy. Strengthen the current with breathbased techniques like kundalini yoga, holotropic breathwork or by seeing an acupuncturist regularly.

MONEY There’s strength—and fortune!—in numbers this year, as enterprising Jupiter joins powerbrokers Saturn and Pluto in your teamwork zone (Capricorn). Put your money where your ideals are. Who says you can’t change the world for the better and pay your bills at the same time? Digital ventures could also take flight in a profitable way. Two eclipses in your career zone, on June 5 and December 14, may launch you into the major leagues. When it comes to your cash, be careful not to burn as fast as you earn while excitable Mars blazes through your financial house from June 27 on.

LEISURE Your social circle swells to exciting proportions in 2020—and what a colorful crew you’ll assemble! Thought leaders, artists and garden-variety unicorns will populate the Pisces posse this year. If family’s been getting the short end of the stick, make amends when convivial Venus tours your domestic zone from April 3 to August 7. The harmonizing planet turns retrograde from May 13 to June 25, so don’t wait until then to discuss shared finances or deal with issues brewing under your roof. The November 30 lunar eclipse could bring some heartopening moments, just in time for the holidays. u

ome on up for air, Pisces. And while you’re at it, take three deep, cleansing breaths. In 2020, you have planetary permission to exhale, and maybe slip off for a meditation retreat around the March 21 equinox. Last year, no-limits Jupiter climbed to the top of your chart, working its magic in your tenth house of success. Some Fish spent 2019 with gills to the grindstone, developing your magnum opus or creating a venture that aligned with your ideals. You may have traveled for work, hustled remotely (and independently) or, like many Pisces we know, finally screwed up the courage to leave a corporate gig to pursue your passions.

The AstroTwins’ 2020 Horoscope

No matter what rung of the ladder you’re on in 2020, it will not be lonely at the top. (Nor at the ground floor, the coworking cubicle, in coach or business class.) That’s because, since December 2, 2019, Jupiter has been soaring through Capricorn and your ultra-social, egalitarian eleventh house. Until December 19, 2020, the red-spotted rabble rouser will accompany transformational Pluto and serious Saturn through this sector, lifting the heavier vibes these weighty planets have cast over your social life since December 2017. This triumphant trio hasn’t teamed up in Capricorn since 1285 C.E., so yes, Pisces, 2020 is going to bring some big-deal revelations about the kinds of people you want to 528
