true if Venus is in Aries as well as the Sun. If an Aries likes you, he or she will have a hard time taking no for an answer; many attempts will be made to sweep you off your feet.

      Though Aries can be exasperating in relationships – especially if they are not understood by their partners – they are never consciously or wilfully cruel or malicious. It is just that they are so independent and sure of themselves that they find it almost impossible to see somebody else’s viewpoint or position. This is why an Aries needs as a partner someone with lots of social graces.

      On the plus side, an Aries is honest, someone you can lean on, someone with whom you will always know where you stand. What he or she lacks in diplomacy is made up for in integrity.

      Home and Domestic Life

      An Aries is of course the ruler at home – the Boss. The male will tend to delegate domestic matters to the female. The female Aries will want to rule the roost. Both tend to be handy round the house. Both like large families and both believe in the sanctity and importance of the family. An Aries is a good family person, although he or she does not especially like being at home a lot, preferring instead to be roaming about.

      Considering that they are by nature so combative and wilful, Aries people can be surprisingly soft, gentle and even vulnerable with their children and partners. The sign of Cancer, ruled by the Moon, is on the cusp of their solar 4th house of home and family. When the Moon is well aspected – under favourable influences – in the birth chart, an Aries will be tender towards the family and will want a family life that is nurturing and supportive. Aries likes to come home after a hard day on the battlefield of life to the understanding arms of their partner and the unconditional love and support of their family. An Aries feels that there is enough ‘war’ out in the world – and he or she enjoys participating in that. But when Aries comes home, comfort and nurturing are what’s needed.

       Horoscope for 2020

      Major Trends

      Your career has been an important focus for many, many years, and since 2018, as Saturn moved into your 10th house of career, it has become even more important. You’ve had to work hard and methodically. This year you will see the payoff. The career will bloom. More on this later.

      Health has been an issue for the past two years as well. Your normally abundant and dynamic energy hasn’t been up to scratch, and this could have made you more vulnerable to problems. This is the trend in the year ahead. The good news is that much of the health pressure will go by the end of the year – health is steadily improving in 2020. More details later.

      The Eastern sector of the self is overwhelmingly dominant this year, Aries. There will be periods where there are no planets – zero, nada, nil – in the social Western sector. And even though the Western sector will strengthen as the year progresses it will never be dominant. Only short-term planets will move through there. So this is not an especially strong love year. It is a year for independence and self-reliance – something you enjoy. More on this later.

      Uranus moved into your money house in March of 2019 and will be there for many years to come. This indicates many dramatic financial changes, some voluntary, some involuntary. In finance expect the unexpected. Details below.

      Neptune has been in your 12th house of spirituality for many years now and will remain there for many more. This shows a focus on spirituality and great internal growth. It will be a challenge to meld this with your super-busy outer life. But you will do it.

      Mars, your ruling planet, will spend an unusual amount of time in your own sign this year. Normally he is in a sign for approximately a month and a half at a time, but he will be in Aries for six months – quadruple his usual transit. This further reinforces the focus on self-absorption and independence that we mentioned earlier. It can be a benefit healthwise too – so long as you don’t overdo things.

      Eclipse activity is very much increased in the year ahead, guaranteeing a year of sudden and dramatic change. Normally there are four eclipses in a given year. This year there will be six. Normally there are two lunar eclipses in a given year, but this year there will be four. This will impact on the home, family and domestic situation. More on this later.

      Your areas of greatest focus and interest this year will be the career (all year); spirituality (all year); finance (all year); and friends, groups and group activities (from March 23 to July 2 and from December 18 onwards).

      Your paths of greatest fulfilment this year are the career (until December 20); friends, groups and group activities (from December 20 onwards); home and family (until May 16); and children, fun and creativity (from May 16 onwards).

      Health

       (Please note that this is an astrological perspective on health and not a medical one. In days of yore there was no difference, both perspectives were identical. But these days there could be quite a difference. For a medical perspective, please consult your doctor or health practitioner.)

      As we mentioned above, health is an important area to watch this year. Three long-term planets are in stressful alignment with you for most of 2020. This of itself is a problem, but there will be periods where the short-term planets also join the fray and these will be your most vulnerable months. These periods are from January 1 to January 20; June 21 to July 20 (less stressful than January though); and September 22 to October 23. Make sure you take it nice and easy over those periods.

      What further complicates health is the weakness in your 6th house of health. It is, for the most part, empty, with only short-term planets moving through there. So your tendency is to ignore your health or to take it for granted. This would be a mistake. You need to force yourself – even when you don’t feel like it – to focus on health.

      The medieval astrologers (and many modern astrologers) believed in Destiny: if something is going to happen, there is nothing we can do about it. I am not in this camp. Personal experience has taught me that our free will choices can alter, or at least soften, Destiny. Destiny can show encounters with ill health, but how we choose to meet Destiny can make all the difference.

      Thus there is much that can be done to enhance the health and prevent problems from developing. Give more attention to the following – the vulnerable areas of your Horoscope (the reflex points are shown in the chart below):

      Important foot reflexology points for the year ahead

      Try to massage all of the foot on a regular basis – the top of the foot as well as the bottom – but pay extra attention to the points highlighted on the chart. When you massage, be aware of ‘sore spots’ as these need special attention. It’s also a good idea to massage the ankles and below them.

       The head, face and scalp. Always important for Aries, regular scalp and face massage is a wonderful preventive. It not only strengthens the particular area, but the entire body as well through reflexes there that go to the whole body. Craniosacral therapy is also excellent for this area.

       The musculature is also always important for Aries. You don’t need to be a body-builder or become muscle bound; you only need good muscle tone. Weak or flabby muscles can knock the spine and bones out of alignment and this will cause all kinds of other problems. So, vigorous physical exercise is important – according to your age and stage in life.

       The adrenals. The important thing here (as our regular readers know) is to avoid anger and fear – the two emotions that stress the adrenals. Meditation is a great help for this.

       The lungs, arms, shoulders, small intestine and respiratory system. Arms and shoulders should be regularly massaged. Tension tends to collect in the shoulders and needs to be released.

       The heart has only
