On your birthday this year you enter your 2nd Solar Year. Solar Years begin on your Birthday and continue for the following 12 months - they are not calendar years.

General Feel
You will find it far easier to relate to other people in this cycle.

Definition
What you will need during this 12-month cycle is diplomacy, co-operation and the ability to put yourself in someone else's shoes. Whatever you began in the previous 12 months will now begin to show signs of progress. However, don't expect miracles; changes are going to be slow rather than at the speed of light. Changes will be taking place all around you. It is possible too that you will be considering moving from one area to another, maybe even to another country. There is a lively feel about domesticity and in relationships with the opposite sex too. This is going to be a marvellous 12 months for making things come true and asking for favours. However, on no account should you force yourself and your opinions on other people. A spoonful of honey is going to get you a good deal further than a spoonful of vinegar. If you were born under the signs of Cancer or Taurus, or if your birthday falls on the 2nd, 11th, 20th or 29th, then this 12-month cycle is going to be full of major events.

Relationships
You need to associate with other people far more than is usually the case - perhaps out of necessity. The emphasis is on love, friendship and professional partnerships. The opposite sex will be much more prepared to get involved in your life than is normally the case. This is a 12-month cycle when your chances of becoming engaged or married are increased and there is likely to be a lovely addition to your family and also the families of your friends and those closest to you. The instinctive, caring side to your personality is going to be strong and very obvious. You will quickly discover that you will be particularly touchy and sensitive to things that other people say. Further, you will find those born under the signs of Cancer, Taurus or Libra entering you life far more than is usually the case. This particularly applies to those who were born on the 2nd, 6th, 7th, 11th, 15th, 20th, 24th, 25th or 26th of any month. Romantic and family events are likely to be emphasised during April, June and September.

Career
There is a strong theme of change here, but there is no point in having a panic attack about that because after all, life is about change. However, in this particular 12-month cycle any transformation or upheaval is likely to be of an internal nature, such as at your place of work, rather than external. You may find your company is moving from one area to another, or perhaps there are changes between departments, Quite obviously then, the most important thing for you to do in order to make your life as easy as possible is to be adaptable. There is a strong possibility that you may be given added responsibility. Don't flinch as this will bring extra rewards. If you are thinking of searching for employment, try to arrange all meetings and negotiations on a Monday or Friday. These are good days for asking for favours or pay rises. The best months are March, April, June, August and December. All these are important times for change.

Health
This 12-month cycle indicates stomach problems. The important thing for you is to eat sensibly, rather than go on a crash diet, for example - this could be detrimental. Women in their Solar Year 2 are advised to have at least one check-up in the next 12 months to ensure they continue having good health. All should be discriminating when eating out. Check cutlery and take care if food has been only partially cooked. Furthermore, emotional stress could get you down, but only if you allow it. Provided you set aside some periods of relaxation in each day when you can close your eyes and let everything drift away, then you will have little to worry about. When it comes to diet, be sure that the emphasis is on nutrition, rather than fighting the flab. Perhaps it would be a good idea to become less weight conscious during this cycle and let your body find its natural ideal weight on its own. The months of February, April, July and November may show health changes in some way. Common sense is your best guide during the next 12 months.
