***** INTRODUCTION *****
The Solar Return is a chart calculated for the time that the Sun arrives at the exact position of the Sun in your natal chart. That happens once every year around your birthday, but at a different time each year. This chart is calculated for the time of the Sun's return this year and marks the principal events for the year from birthday to birthday. This report also gives the location of your Solar Return. From this, it can be determined that some places are more favorable than others. With the aid of more than one report you could analyze the changes that are produced in the Solar Return Reports, choosing from different locations where you would want to spend the day.
This report essentially is divided into two parts. The first part analyzes the general external conditions of the year: opportunities and problems that could occur in different areas. For the benefit of students of astrology, the influence of the Ascendant and Midheaven of the return are described as well as that of the Sun and Moon.
The second part analyzes the twelve astrological houses, marking specifically in what area of your life the various astral influences will be manifested, emphasizing your probable responses and inner changes. This section analyzes the position of the solar houses on the natal houses, the planetary conjunctions, and the location of the planets in the houses. You will be given a description of the most important matters derived from the placement of the planets in the houses, which are outlined in the text for each of them.
In some cases you will find contradictions. A planet may be beneficial in a certain area, while others may indicate the opposite situation. This means that you could have two types of possible situations during the year. For example: a lover's quarrel and a following reconciliation. To get the most out of this report, it will be necessary to use your own logic and intuition, fitting the descriptions outlined here to your own particular case.
The objective of this report is to offer you a practical guide that helps you to analyze this year's prospects and to learn from them using your free will.

***** FIRST PART *****
Chapter 1:General characteristics of the year. The external conditions.
Solar Return Ascendant Aquarius :
This will be a very unusual year. It brings different circumstances and experiences and changes in your daily routine. You will have a strong desire for more freedom. You may surprise others around you with changes in your normal, everyday behavior due to the influence of Uranus. You will feel the need for space and a lot of freedom of movement. Anyone or anything that stands in your way will not be tolerated. You are not willing to accept any kind of compromise and you will rebel against what you determine to be undue pressure to conform to the wills of others. If you are not this kind of person normally, the change in your personality will be very obvious. If you are already extroverted and changeable by nature, you should be careful not to go to extremes.
You will be thinking more toward the future than to the present or the past. Your creativity will increase and you will conceive ideas and projects that will be of great value to you in the years to come. You will be looking at what has up to now been important to you and want to discard some of it because your interests are changing at this time and you will be drawn to the new and unusual.
It will be a good year for social relationships and friendships. It also favors participation in group activities, clubs or committees that you may have thought of joining before, but have not acted upon. In spite of your sociability, tension may develop between you and people who may try to limit your freedom.
Physically, you will have a lot more nervous energy that could make you more anxious and restless than usual. It will be important to pay special attention to your nervous system. It is advisable to alternate periods of rest with your intense activity and spend some time outdoors with nature, especially in places where there is clean air and water. This will give you much needed relaxation and quiet. If this is not possible, soaking in water and listening to soft music would be very helpful.
This new obsession with freedom and variety in your life could bring you in contact with people who will want to organize you or control your actions. This will clash with your desire to go your own way. If you already have an important person in your life, they might be upset by the changes in you which could lead to fights or disagreements. You could begin a new relationship with a person who is attracted to your new persona. However, after this year is over, you may lose your interest in the unusual and strange, and your new partner will wonder what happened to you. Actually, this is not the best year for forming any permanent, binding unions unless you are by nature this Aquarius kind of person. In that case, your true character will simply be exaggerated now, and you will have found a person who is actually very compatible with you.
In spite of the complications you may experience this year, you can be sure it will not be dull. Let yourself enjoy whatever adventures you have and the new, fun friends that you have made!
Solar Return MC Sagittarius:
During this year you want to reach for the stars! . Your optimism and your faith will be the principal ingredients for your advancement and the realization of your goals. This influence brings you a dose of general luck with your projects. You have a cosmic protection that will be with you all year. You will more convincing and persuasive than you have ever been. This could be beneficial to you in politics, business or any other related field.
If your usual work is related to travel, tourism, diplomacy, international business, teaching, photography or the theater, it will be a successful year. You might also find yourself renewing an interest in one of these areas that you have had in the past. You might even be involved in more than one occupation during this year. Don't allow yourself to get too busy or involved, thereby spreading yourself too thin. It's important to concentrate on your major goals for the year. Otherwise, you will not use your energy wisely.
You could travel and visit other countries during this period, if other indications in this report confirm it. If not, you could use this time to expand your mental or spiritual horizons. You may not have to travel to have new experiences as you could attract into your present physical arena new people who share new ideas and stories of other lands with you. Or you might decide to study a foreign language.
You won't spend much time at home during this period, and could find a "second" home some place where you feel comfortable. You will be very restless and will have a desire to interact with others. This could take place outside of your home, or you may receive a lot of visitors in your home. There might also be more contact and relating to brothers and sisters and other close relatives. Communication is the major key to resolving any disputes that could arise. If you were thinking of moving, you may think about it even more now, and finally make up your mind to do it.
Chapter 2: Astrological influence of your personality.
Sun in 8th house:
This solar influence produces profound changes, especially in regard to your inner self. You will have to confront old fears, anger, or memories that stick in your mind and chain you to the past. It is a year of regeneration, liberation and transformation, and you may not consider it to be an exactly easy year. You will be guided to search your inner self and identify and release any repressed negative feelings which are holding you back or preventing you from living a free and creative life.
In the material world, this influence favors the acquisition of money through inheritance, legacies, gifts or donations. It could also indicate financial gain from your partner if you are in a committed relationship. Any legal matters, litigations or judgments you may be involved in are likely to be settled in your favor during this time.
It is important to watch your health during this year. There could be danger of accidents or an aggravation of some existing illness. Actually, your well-being depends a lot on your psychological and emotional state. If you have issues that you haven't dealt with, this would be a good time to seek out professional help.
In no way will this period pass unnoticed in your life. You will go through a process of inner change that will make you a different person in the following years. Listen sincerely to the dictations of your inner voice and your intuition.
You have a greater interest in the occult now and may want to study these subjects in depth. There also is a possibility to have paranormal experiences and to develop an increased power of perception.
Sun opposition Moon:
This influence could bring tension in your home which will disturb your tranquility during this period. Don't get too emotional about the problems you have, and try to analyze them more rationally. You could experience disagreements or tension in the relationship with your mother or other female relatives, and you may not always get your family's approval for what you do or say. You also could have some problems with your health because of your need for emotional balance. Watch out for nervous tension and eat a healthy diet.
You could feel weaker and less effective than usual, and you may find yourself at odds with relatives who are difficult to get along with at this time. You could lose patience with people and if your work exposes you to the public, you should be careful to avoid unnecessary disagreements and misunderstandings, especially with women who won't tend to approve of your ideas. You will probably be dissatisfied with your daily routine and may even have the desire to change your residence.
Sun trine Neptune:
During this year you will develop a great deal of idealism. You will have a very keen perception that will allow you to judge people correctly on your first impression and you will be able to sense their reactions in advance. This is a good year for the studies of metaphysical or occult sciences in general. You might think about developing your intuition or powers of perception.
You will actively participate in groups or institutions that help people in need. Your desire to help others will be very strong and will incline you to put your own interests aside during this year. The activities that you undertake in this period will give you much pleasure on the spiritual level. Your approach to God and religion also will be very important. You could get much benefit from prayer or meditation.
As far as relationships are concerned, you are more likely to be looking for a platonic relationship rather a romantic one. It's important for you to be realistic and do your best to see people clearly, with all their faults as well as virtues, in order to guard against being deceived or hurt.
In addition, if you are devoted to music or the art world, you will have many moments of inspiration that will benefit you in your work.
During this period you could benefit considerably from being around water. Every time you become tense or unbalanced, you should go to some place where you can be near water, such as a river, ocean, or lake. If that is not possible, you could take long showers or baths to revive your energy.
Sun semisquare Venus:
You may encounter, and have to deal with, some unresolved romantic problems from the past. Stay calm and develop a positive attitude toward your partner, as well as your social life in general. The irritations and displeasures caused by others could be the reflection of your own inner uneasiness. This aspect generates a desire for comfort and pleasure, which could lead to disruptions in your routine, followed by a possible loss of income. Do your best to control these yearnings and search for a creative solution for your inner dissatisfaction.
Sun semisquare Mars:
There is a strong tendency to be aggressive and to lose your patience easily. Problems you may have overlooked in the past could arise and hinder you in your present business activity. It will be necessary to put your life in order so that you can have a calmer year.
This aspect can also cause you to be careless, thereby making you subject to accidents, blows, falls or burns. Be alert and use caution. These impulsive and rash actions will be your worst enemy. You could also very easily get entangled in discussions or arguments with others, which might lead to fights or quarrels that will be difficult to reconcile.
In order to have a good year, you should keep physically active. Practice some sport or gymnastics, which will use up some of your excess physical energy and will break up your usual daily routine.
Sun semisextile Saturn:
Stability and perseverance in achieving your objectives will stand out during this time. You will be more realistic and objective, which will allow you to organize and direct your energies better. Success this year depends on being constant in that which you propose to do.
You will rely on the support of close friends and those in authority, and you will receive it because of your responsible and trustworthy attitude.
Sun semisextile MC:

Your enthusiasm and vitality will be noticed and will capture the attention of others in a positive way. You will probably receive support from friends and associates. Your spiritual strength will be your principal guide.
You will express yourself in a frank and direct manner and will have great power to convince others. You probably will acquire a position of leadership and will make great professional progress.
Chapter 3: The emotional world.
Solar Return Moon in Taurus :
You will feel more emotionally stable during this year. There probably won't be many changes, but if there are any, they won't affect you that much. You will find it easy and satisfactory to express your affections. You will have a good time and will receive much cooperation from others.
On the other hand, this influence could cause you to worry more about your future stability, and you will look for business opportunities or investments that could earn you more money. You will have good possibilities for economic growth during this period, but don't concentrate all your efforts in this direction. If you do, you could become too materialistic and greedy.
The relationship with your mother, or with other women in your family, will be good and you can count on the support from them. You will receive a lot of approval that will help you to feel more certain about pursuing your goals.
It is also important that you don't neglect your diet because there is a tendency to eat in excess and to live a life of pleasure in general. This could cause you to gain weight or to have digestive disorders. You can rely on having a stronger will this year, and if you wanted to, you could concentrate on eliminating certain ingrained negative habits. But if you are not careful, you could also acquire new fixed habits that wouldn't be good for you.
Analyze your objectives and then select your principal goals for this year. Directed energy and persevering work will be the key to success.
Solar Return Moon in 3rd house:
Your mind will be very active and you will rely a lot on your imagination, which will sometimes prevent you from concentrating on the every-day, practical things of life. You will be drawn to intellectual and literary activities, as well as all types of every-day communication, but you will need to make an effort to achieve the necessary concentration.
You will probably take many short trips because this will be a year of much movement. You won't want to adjust to any routine.
The relationship with your relatives, especially with your brothers and sisters, will be very important. You probably will resume contact with them and work on some joint task, although this could also mean the possibility of arguments and family rivalries. Or you could receive criticism and gossip from those in your inner circle.
Moon trine Pluto:
Your emotions will be very intense but, at the same time, very stimulating and rich. You will see everything and everyone around you to be more profound and powerful than usual, which will lead you to search for relationships that are not superficial, but allow you to express your more intimate emotions. During this time childhood memories or traumas will emerge from your consciousness that will let you see, with much more clarity, the motive for your current reactions. You will discover your true self which will give you more trust, clarity, and the capability to confront your life in general.
It is important that you don't repress your emotions this year, but express them freely. It also will be important that you control obsessive and stubborn behavior. Romance and your sex-life could become very enriched. If you are in a committed relationship, you should be feeling confident and on solid ground with your partner, but be careful not to become too bossy or manipulative.
You could experience some changes in your home or family life that will be very beneficial. The relationship with your mother, or other women in your life, will be very profound, intense, and more spiritual.
This will be a year of renewal and emotional freeing up. Encounters with your past and your own history will allow you to get to know yourself better, and if you don't resist these new feelings, you will have a very positive year.
Moon sextile Neptune:
You will find your imagination becoming stronger during this time. If your profession involves artistic or creative activity, you will have a year of success and profit. Your sensitivity and your degree of perception will also increase. You will become more intuitive and may have premonitions about the future which will turn out to be right. You should follow the dictates of your inner voice.
You will show an agreeable and caring attitude toward others. It will be relatively easy for you to put yourself in the place of another person and understand their problems, which will result in your becoming more cooperative and sensitive to others. The sensitivity will also extend to your home environment, where you will find that your spiritual ties will strengthen, especially with your mother or other women who are close to you. You will feel the desire to help others, especially those who are more unfortunate than you, and you will be more selfless during this year.
On the other hand, you could be more receptive and more easily influenced than at other times in your life, and it will be important that you surround yourself with positive people. Your emotions will be more intense, and you will be more spiritually oriented. You will search for a closer contact with your divine inner self. You will find that you can benefit greatly through the practice of prayer or meditation.
Your imagination and your pleasures will be more refined. You will feel more romantic and loving, which will lead to relationships which will be based on your ideals and dreams.

Venus in 7th house of Solar Return:
This will be a year of relating. If you have plans for marriage, things will go very smoothly for you. If you are already in a committed relationship, you will have a good year together. This astrological position promises success in all kinds of personal partnerships, including business partnerships. If you aren't in a committed relationship at this time, it could be the year when you meet that special someone.

You will need to make any adjustments that appear necessary because you will accomplish more by working cooperatively with others.

Solar Return Mars Conjunct natal Venus:
You will have greater ability to handle the aggressive behavior and the tension created by others in a calm and understanding way. Nervous people will be attracted to you due to your ability to make them feel calmer and more relaxed.
