What might have seemed openness over the last year in your dealings with others could now become more secretive during the next year. Be mindful of any change of mind or agreement on their part over the next week – it could be their way of rebelling. Coupled with this can be an expectation that you take responsibility.

A much better time when it comes to interaction with others will begin to take shape now and continue for a year. If you have been in a situation of not knowing exactly where you stand over the last year, it will now change. You may have been appreciated more than you realised. Stay focussed on health and fitness for now.

You have had plenty of opportunity to generally enjoy yourself over the last year.

You might now need to consider how this has impacted on your health and fitness.

You will gain weight easily over the next year, so be mindful of that now. It will be difficult to get the recognition you think you deserve for your efforts as well.

Efforts you have taken to establish a good foundation or to put matters in place over the last year now move onto a phase that will feel more fortunate and easier to navigate over the next year. Don’t be too concerned about pressure being applied at the moment. You should be able to generate alternative ways around it.

Life has likely been full of distractions of one sort or another over the last year. It has also been a good time to think about life and gather information on anything you would like to pursue. Now you are entering a cycle for the next year where you need to get some sort of order in place so that you establish a solid foundation.

Hopefully you have made extra money over the last year and not gone overboard with spending. A busy cycle will now begin and continue for the next year. It is an excellent time to take up any study or to seek out information on anything you would like to do long term. It is also a great year for travelling or a change of pace.

Jupiter is now moving on from your sign, where it has been since September 2016.

Right now you can be in awe of just how much change has taken place. Your focus for the next year will be your finances. This can bring the opportunity to generate a greater income but it may also encourage you to overspend or overcommit.

Jupiter, the planet of expansion moves into your sign, where it will stay until 8th November 2018. This will end the holding back feeling you have had to endure for the last year and should give a greater sense of personal freedom when it comes to choices you want to make. The one thing you will need to watch is weight gain.

You are entering a cycle for the next year that will have a holding back feeling or generate situations that produce no clear outcome and require you to wait for matters to sort themselves out. You have had some practice in being patient since 2015 when Saturn entered your sign. Obviously life thinks you need one last dose.

There has likely been a lot more to handle in the last year than you would have chosen.

As a result, you can look at what should be your priorities quite differently over the next year. There is more significant change to come in December. You need to be thinking of yourself and how situations in life impact upon you.

You have been encouraged to look at longterm goals over the last year and what you really want from the future. Over the next year you will need to commit yourself in some way. Responsibilities or commitments could easily get out of hand so ensure you go into any situation with this in mind so that you can keep control.

A sense of being set free from the expectations of others can be your experience now and over the next year.

There is probably a lot you have learned about the true desires or intentions of others in the last year. This experience could encourage you to look at what you want from your future from a different perspective.
