Forecast for Zodiac signs in 2010
By Lydia Solini (www.AstrologyByLydia.com)
    Aries: ruled by Mars, begins the New Year feeling Saturn’s thoughtful energy as it opposes your Sun making it challenging to create momentum in your life; (the key to future success is to have a well thought out plan for the future) this continues until the beginning of April and starts being felt again in September through the end of December.  You will have great power to make changes or experience unexpected events or opportunities from June to end of August when unpredictable Uranus and expansive Jupiter in Aries, teams up with action oriented Mars in Libra; be flexible, have a broad view of the situation; make sure goals are in place and take action!  Business/career takes center stage in December; make decisions based on your needs.
