Ah, lovely Aquarius, the most original of all the sun signs, you are a leader in every way, and you refuse to follow the crowd. You have your own ideas, and nothing makes you happier than to see your dreams come to life. You will have numerous opportunities to fulfill your aspirations this year, Aquarius, as 2017 will bring you many good things domestically and financially. You will face new challenges as well; these are situations that may test your strong opinions about life.

You have a stubborn nature about you, my breezy friend, and you may need to open your mind to alternative ways of thinking this year. This will be your biggest challenge, as you feel your opinions are crucial to your identity, but you must realize that you are not always right in all things, Aquarius. Sometimes a new way of looking at the world can bring you many gifts. At the beginning of the year, around February, a challenging and exciting opportunity will come your way. It will be a creative project, and it will be very appealing to you. At first, you may feel as though you are in over your head on this project, but give it a little time. Trust your instincts and brilliant ideas, and this venture is sure to be a success. Take care to be open to new ways of working on this endeavor; try not to be stubborn regarding how things get done. Just get them done, Aquarius!

Libra, you are the friend of the world!  Always charming, you have the gift of making others feel loved and important. This talent will bring you many treasures in 2017. You can expect to gain a refreshing balance and harmony at home and at work, and a strengthening of your partnerships in both love and family throughout the year, but some challenges may affect your light and airy nature.  Libra, you like to try and please everyone around you, and this often puts you in a sticky situation. Many times, you feel exhausted, and deep down, you realize that you often neglect yourself in an effort to put everyone else first.

On January 26, Saturn moves into Sagittarius, and you may see yourself at the center of a family conflict at this time. This is no problem for you, Libra, as you are a born diplomat and can easily mediate the situation; however, you will feel very strongly about this particular matter and may be compelled to take sides. This is a new and uncomfortable situation for you, but allow for your opinion to be known.  This time, when you take sides, it will actually work out for all parties involved. You may have to suffer the consequences of this conflict a little bit in April, when Mercury is retrograde in Aries, but things will calm down by the end of the month. Your loved ones will respect you for standing your ground.

You must work to overcome your compulsion to please everyone all of the time, Libra, and taking a stand during this family conflict will help you to resolve your issue. After a while, your spirit will strengthen and you will feel more confident about expressing your own opinion.  Understand that the displeasure of others is usually transitory, and those who truly love you will never abandon you, no matter what your personal convictions may be. One of your convictions has always been to travel.  Perhaps, you have been planning a special holiday or an exciting long-term adventure abroad.
