ARIES Horoscope for 2011

2011 is sure to whip by for you. Life seems to be speeding up, just enough for you to take some personal risks and to make important, if not ground-breaking, changes. Jupiter and Uranus settle in to your sign this year, and both stimulate the urge for freedom and push you out of your regular routine, in different ways. Relationship tests continue this year. If an existing partnership is no longer serving you well, or if a potential partnership doesn't cut the mustard, you may feel that you'd rather not have any.  Some of you will endure stresses and challenges in a partnership, and that relationship comes out stronger. Single Aries are less likely to enter a new partnership. If they do, they do so cautiously, or only if the relationship appears solid and mature. Pluto continues to put pressure on your career goals and reputation. Are you being as responsible as you should be? If not, then changes are necessary. You are more accountable for your actions, and some of you may question whether a particular career path is a true reflection of you. From January to June, Jupiter, the planet of plenty, moves through your sign, and you have confidence on your side. You don't much care for being tied down or restricted. Certainly, you're being pulled in many directions, particularly in February and March, with major outer planets in strong aspect to your sign in 2011. From June forward, Aries, a shift occurs that has you knowing your value and attracting more money or possessions into your life. From July to October, especially, many of you will enjoy a pay increase and/or more recognition for your capabilities. You are valued, act like you deserve to be valued, and as a result, attract better fortune. This may not fall into your lap - you're likely to work hard for it. Uranus, the planet of change, is in your sign from March forward (in fact, until 2019!), encouraging you to detach yourself from certain elements of your past so that you can start fresh, in pursuit of a lifestyle that is more authentic. When Uranus first stimulates your Sun or Ascendant, you could find that you're acting out - rebelling, even.  As you become more accustomed to its energy, you are more active than reactive. The plus side of this influence is that you feel fresher, more energetic, younger, and more expressive. You are able to free yourself from limiting situations and attitudes. Do be careful, however, that you don't alienate others with a self-centered, defensive attitude. The effects of change agent Uranus in 2011 will be felt most by those of you born March 21-26.
