What’s in store for 2021?

Patrick Arundell looks at what the stars predict for the coming year

23 November – 21 December What a year 2021 looks to be, Archer! You’ll have a chance to bring your goals and plans into fruition, and this can be very fulfilling after a spell where other people’s needs seemed to take priority. Whatever you want to enjoy or accomplish, this is your chance to go for it.

The connections and friendships you make could be key to the success and happiness you are hoping for. Your home and family life will benefit from the brief sojourn of Jupiter into Pisces between May 13th and July 29th, and you might have a desire to beautify your home, but also to generate income from there.

With Pluto continuing in your money zone this is a great time for planning, especially as regards taxes, inheritances and purging excess waste. It’s an opportunity to get rid of, or sell, anything you don’t use very much. With Saturn your financial planet in Aquarius, anything associated with writing, blogging or making money online can do well.

Regarding your love life, the Solar Eclipse on June 10th could be a stepping-stone to a new phase in a key relationship, or even a chance to turn over a new leaf.

CAPRICORN

22 December – 20 January You may have big plans for 2021, but taking a step back and seeing the bigger picture can assist you in making the right decisions and choices. It might be worth taking some time out to reflect on what you really want, a question that may be uppermost in your mind during this deeply interesting year. Saturn your ruler, journeys through your sector of resources, finances and talents, along with Jupiter. Are you making the most of your skills and abilities? You may be keen to explore freelance, creative or entrepreneurial opportunities for work, which might seem a little precarious if you are used to a regular wage, but which you could now find very appealing. Don’t make too sudden a jump though.

Sparkling opportunities may be had in this regard as Jupiter moves into Pisces temporarily from May 13th to July 29th.

This is generally unlike you Capricorn, but with hard angles between Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus, a sense of frustration may find you doing something that puts your hard work in jeopardy. If you avoid such actions and pace yourself, then Jupiter’s presence in your money zone for much of the year could help you to build prosperity.

AQUARIUS

21 January – 19 February With 2021 knocking on your door, you’ll start the year as you mean to carry on, that is, with the determination to accomplish your goals. You may have a more serious take on matters than is warranted at times, due to having sobering Saturn in your sign. Yet with expansive Jupiter here for much of the year, good things and great opportunities can show up for you. You won’t let yourself get carried away and will test each step as you go.

As Jupiter makes a brief foray into Pisces and your money sector from May 13th to July 29th, it’s an opportunity to make the most of any financial opportunities. If you invest wisely you could do very well. When it comes to finances and career, this could be a prosperous year for you, as you have a great sense of purpose, fabulous management skills and your work ethic is also very strong. When it comes to money though, your intuition can be your guide to financial increase.

PISCES

20 February – 20 March As you step into 2021 Pisces, you could find that your search for spiritual nourishment has deepened. This might be due to the difficulties experienced during 2020, and a need for something deeper to sustain you through the coming months. Your natural spiritual urges would have been enhanced by the presence of Neptune in your sign for some years now.

You’ll sparkle in other ways too, as Jupiter your co-ruler moves into your sign for a brief stay between May 13th July 29th. This gives you a taster of what is to come next year, when it moves in for a longer period. Your career may be going through changes, and this can be down to the Lunar Eclipse on May 26th and the Solar Eclipse on December 4th. However, if you’re prepared to go with the flow, these could be beneficial and lead to a more prosperous and fulfilling path.

ARIES

21 March – 20 April Ready for take-off, Aries? As 2021 gets underway, you’ll be keen to put the past behind you and embrace new and exciting options. The spirit of discovery is strong and if you are ready to take on board new challenges, you can go far. As a pioneer and adventurer, you often pride yourself on going where no person has been before. But with a focus on team players, you might go even further when you affiliate yourself with a group, organisation or kindred spirits.

With sobering Saturn facing off with Uranus and in a tight angle from February until July, it may be hard to adjust to new values. What can bring relief and a fresh perspective is the movement of Jupiter into flowing Pisces for a brief spell from May 13th until July 29th. If you find yourself crystallising instead of transforming, then reach into this sublime energy and let go. You won’t lose anything, and have much to gain instead.

Where romance is concerned you have great potential, and others can be drawn to you for many reasons. Don’t get carried away though.

TAURUS

21 April – 21 May During 2021 you are ready to soar Taurus, yet also eager to take a deeper dive as you seek new experiences. You’ll have many opportunities to unravel emotional entanglements that may be preventing you from having your full share of love, financial wellbeing and happiness. It’s time to let go of whatever no longer serves, and doing so can be very freeing.

There is so much you might want to accomplish, especially with Saturn and Jupiter in your career zone. You are ready to take on board new responsibilities and challenges, even if it means leaving your comfort zone. Others will be watching you though, so you will need to set the right example. You might not enjoy this at first as it can grate, but if you can adapt, you’ll fly even higher.

You’ll have great support from friends as Jupiter enters your social zone from May 13th until July 29th. They will be there when needed, and this can be very comforting.

GEMINI

22 May – 21 June 2021 brings so many new possibilities your way, Gemini. But your fortunes could change for the better when you’re willing to work alongside others as a team, collaborate and see the bigger picture. You may find yourself drawn to humanitarian causes and ideals. Being involved in schemes and plans that can make the world a better place might be so important to you. In fact, it will change you as person as you resonate with new ideas and ideals. This is where you’ll find your feet and relish the projects, conversations and friendships that spring from it.

With a Saturn-Uranus angle peaking between January and July, you could sabotage your own success if you can’t let go of beliefs that may be holding you back. Yet Uranus is perfectly placed to allow this process to take place, if you can go with it. Tie up those loose ends and you’ll feel so much better. As Jupiter moves into your topmost sector from May 13th to July 29th, your job or career could become the arena where you truly shine.

There are dynamic possibilities for love and there is potential for a relationship that is everything you could want, although you might not recognise it right away.

CANCER

22 June – 23 July

Is this the year you take charge of your destiny, Cancer? 2021 may be the portal to a deeply fascinating time in which the process of transformation can see you coming into your own. You could have a yearning for something that takes you out of the ordinary and propels you onto a healing and spiritual path that might make you whole in the process.

New Year, new you, and your friendships could change as you do. Certain people may no longer chime with the values you are ready to adopt. New friends will show up who are on a different wavelength, and who you can more easily relate to. When Jupiter moves into Pisces from May 13th until July 29th you’ll really feel this and be willing to let others make any adjustments in their own way. Technology might play a big part in finding love, and a virtual relationship could run for some time before you meet in the flesh.

Lovely Sun-Jupiter aspects between January 24th to 29th, June 22nd to 24th and October 14th to16th can be helpful for finances, with money-making opportunities showing up. You may be more experimental in your love life too, as Saturn your ruler moves into Aquarius. Regarding your career, things may be quieter in this respect with Mars moving out of this zone after a six-month stay.

LEO

24 July – 23 August You’ll be ready for new creative adventures, and a chance to indulge those passions that leaves you upbeat and recharged. Good things are coming your way Leo as 2021 is unleashed. A powerful focus on your sector of relationships involves close partnerships, as well as other types of interaction, including networking, friendships and group activities. By working alongside others you can accomplish so much more. However, new ideas and ideals that are absorbed from others could be a clash with your more traditional ambitions and plans, giving much food for thought. The people you liaise with might change you and your dreams, and goals may shift.

This is also a year when you need to pace yourself, as sobering Saturn faces off with electric Uranus, which may be a tad exhausting. Find a way to balance activities so you have plenty of chance to rest. This involves taking a break from too much screen time as well. Still, with a powerful focus continuing in your wellness zone, you’ll be keen to stay on track and do whatever you can in this regard.

While finances look to be fairly stable this year, you will get a boost when Jupiter moves into your sector of shared assets between May 13th and July 29th. A wise investment of your money could bring a positive return. Avoid taking too much of a risk though.

VIRGO

24 August – 23 September Welcome to 2021 Virgo, and to a year that has so much promise. With a major emphasis on your lifestyle zone and a fascination with techniques, strategies, lists and routines, this is an excellent opportunity to get your life in order so you can accomplish your brightest goals. It’s also a chance to experiment with new ideas, techniques and technologies, and find ways to unleash your tremendous potential. Career-wise this can be a positive year, with opportunities for some exciting jobs showing up, and these could take you into new territory. It seems that your skills and abilities may be very much in demand, but will perhaps be used in a different setting to what you are used to.

Expansive Jupiter moves into imaginative Pisces between May 13th and July 29th. Mind, with a Solar Eclipse in your career sector on June 10th, there is the possibility of an exciting advancement if you’re up for it.

Your love life looks set to sparkle, particularly between May 13th and July 29th, and next year can be even better in this regard.

LIBRA

24 September – 23 October As 2021 gets underway, your sector of leisure and creativity is busy. The cosmos is encouraging you to indulge your love of certain activities as a way to refuel and rediscover your passion. You need a chance to kick back and enjoy life, especially after an intense couple of years. To this end you’ll be keen to experiment with new hobbies and pastimes, and with dating too. If you’re looking for romance you may be drawn to those who are older, have had a lot of experience of life, or have refreshing perspectives to share. In a longterm partnership? This seems to be fairly stable, but you’ll also crave excitement and new challenges, especially if your bond has been in a bit of a rut.

When it comes to finances, Pluto in your home and family sector suggests you may be making money from your home or property, or perhaps working from home on a more permanent basis.

Ready to showcase your creative skills to the world? You may have abilities that have so far remained dormant. This year encourages you to be more forward about what you can do.

SCORPIO

24 October – 22 November Get ready for an exciting 2021, Scorpio. With sobering Saturn and jovial Jupiter in your domestic zone making key angles, home and family life can be an opportunity for expansion, as well as a chance to plan and sort out any ongoing issues.

You may want to upgrade aspects of your home and make it more technological and perhaps eco-friendly.

As Jupiter moves into Pisces for a brief flirtation between May 13th and July 29th, it’s time to kick back and enjoy life. There are options for romance, creative developments and for taking a well-deserved break.

Solo? This can be quite a delightful year for finding love, particularly between May 13th and July 29th. Spoken for? Relationships could be tested, but this might be helped by being willing to explore new ways to be together.
