Saturn is retrograde in Virgo until May Day, and in clean house Virgo, another take care of business earth sign, until summer 2010. Uranus remains in Pisces until 2012, which is when Neptune leaves Aquarius. Venus begins the New Year in early Sagittarius, circles the zodiac and ends up Aquarius again. For Mercury retrograde, read Gemini. Happy New Year! |
