Aries 2012 Overview

Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, exudes a great sense of adventurism, enthusiasm, and seems to have an unlimited source of energy. Their passion for keeping active means they often end up double, even triple, booking themselves. They are eager, dynamic, quick, and competitive. When it comes to getting things started, Aries people will get the job done. Pioneering everything from work-related projects to parties with friends, these folks through themselves fully, and immediately, into everything that they set themselves. Lively Arians are represented by image of the Ram, and have many admirable attributes and 2012 looks like a year in which Aries people will find brimming with positive and well deserved change.

During 2012, you will start a process of redeveloping and redefining how you see yourself and the direction of your life. An ideal year to try new approaches and strategies you may have feared to take in the past. Mars, your ruling planet, is going backwards until April, so you will be more likely to take the road less travelled after your birthday.

Jupiter, meanwhile, will help you recognize your own worth and brings you many new options, ideas and new connections. This planet will also help you realize what you need to develop and improve, and June will be a pivotal month for achieving a greater insight into your future.

The two eclipses – one in May and one in June – will inspire you with many wonderful ideas and goals to push towards this year. Know you are capable of achieving these objectives, and success is likely. Aries is symbolized by the “Emperor” in the tarot, symbolizing leadership, so there is no doubting you possess leadership qualities; all you need to do is tap into these traits. Though you have the talent, this year you need to enlist the help of others to accomplish your important goals.

Saturn in your partnership zone may have stifled your interactions with others but in October, Saturn moves on, freeing you up to look at everything with a fresh perspective and ready to enter into more long term connections or objectives.

2012 is an important year for Aries regarding money, relationships, professional matters and communication. Jupiter, planet of luck and expansion will remain in your income sector until the 12th June, creating the potential for income growth and opportunities. In the second half of the year, the focus will shift to your financial situation where it will be less about creating growth and opportunities and more about cementing and managing what you already have. The more you can balance financial responsibility with income growth in the first half of the year, the more potential for growth there will be on both fronts.

Relationships continue to be a major theme in 2012, as they have been for several years now but it is Venus, planet of love’s extraordinary four month visit to your communication sector, from the 4th April to the 8th August that sets the scene for a real breakthrough. If love and communication are the lifeblood of any good relationship, then having Venus in your communication sector gives you a double whammy. As the year progresses and especially from June onwards, communication in general becomes both easier and more meaningful. The only real challenges you will face this year are the same challenges you have become familiar with over recent years, maintaining a balance between personal and relationship goals.

2012 brings with it a reason to smile and rejoice. Those who were going through a tough patch in the past few months, will start to feel more settled.

From the first month of 2012, people under Aries horoscope enter the Jupiter cycle. This brings in a good amount of cash flow and some drastic change in career. This is also the time for you to relax and go for a holiday.

Spend time with your near and dear ones as family and friends will bring in joy towards the mid of the year.

You will make great improvements in your life, weeding out all things that are not necessary. 2012 is the time to take reach for your dreams and begin to make them happen.

2012 will be synonymous with love and romance for Aries. After a difficult period in the previous year, you can now expect to develop long-term stability in emotional bonds and relationships.

If this happens, you will have it both ways: pleasant memories of good times together and getting to know him or her all over again. Whether this happens for you, or you meet an attractive stranger, you will spend many happy times learning about each other. The passion of love will strengthen the romantic bond between those who are married or engaged. Enjoy every moment of togetherness as you start understanding the harmony of a relationship.
