INTRODUCTION: A FORECAST REPORT FOR YOUTH

AstroJourney is written for adolescents and young adults; we focused on, but did not limit ourselves to, 14 to 24 years of age. There are a lot of transit reports out there. Why write one for youth?

Survival is tougher today. Astrology is like a road map. Your road map. Your destiny. Today, more than ever before, we live in a world of choices. Your fate isn't set in stone. From the looks of things, we don't have too much to say about who our parents are, where we're born, how many siblings we get, whether our parents are rich or poor, loving or mean, rigid or liberal. Spiritual astrology teaches that you got the best deal you could get in terms of your karma. Your karma is the picture of your past, your debts and credits from many lifetimes, for better or for worse. Whether you believe in karma or not, you still have to work with what you've got!

CHOICES

The older you get, the more you're going to want to have a say, the more what you say is going to make a difference, and the more you're going to have to account for the consequences. Growing up and separating out from your parents, and making it on your own is about making decisions, taking responsibility for your life. This happens in stages. Some stages of maturation are gradual. Others are dramatic. Many things are hard to understand until later when we can look back on our experience with wiser eyes. Your personalized AstroJourney can help you understand what's going on while you're in the middle of it. AstroJourney can help you pinpoint various possibilities to help you make the best choices.

THE FIRST SATURN OPPOSITION

Some challenges we face have to do with stages in life. For example, between the ages of 14 1/2 and 16 everyone lives through the first Saturn opposition. This is usually a tough time, because you may feel quite capable of making it on your own, but somehow you're not ready yet. You're probably still financially dependent on your parents and you need to finish High School. You may need, love and respect your parents, but chances are you don't totally agree with the way they do things. This is the age when you really start to see things in a different way. It's necessary. Everyone goes through it. Your parents went through it. It's usually a time of tension.

YOUR PERSONAL DESTINY

Other happenings in your life have to do with the day and the moment you were born. Some of these cycles last for a couple of hours, others last for as long as 14 years! Going through Uranus conjoined your Sun, which happens only once in a lifetime and can totally turn around your life, is going to be different at 16 or 22 than at age 40 or 80! In writing this report, we want you to know what this transit means for you, at your age, at this time in history. A transit like Neptune squaring Mercury, which lasts a couple of years, would be confusing at any age in any time. But today the danger of getting wasted with drugs or alcohol or dropping out of school during this sensitive period is going to be more than it was a generation ago. It's also a great time for self-discovery, creativity, getting into music and art, meditation, Tai Chi, exploring spiritual concepts.

EVERYONE'S LIFE MATTERS

One thing I've discovered by working with thousands of people is that everyone, without exception, no matter how better off they may appear to be, has tough issues to work out. Some kids are in more deeply than others. Maybe this has to do with your relationships with parents, school issues, or feeling good about yourself, your body, your friends. In writing each entry we had to cover a lot of ground to speak to many people in different situations but at the same time hit how a certain influence works for you.

If you're 16 and living at home, stuff about looking for an apartment, buying a car, getting involved in serious relationships and filling out job apps may not be relevant to you yet. But, then again, it might. Many of you are sexually mature, if not necessarily ready. We decided to treat you as older rather than younger. You'll know what relates to you because it fits!

CONTRADICTORY INFLUENCES

On some days you'll hit a mixed forecast. For example, transiting Mercury might be Square your Mars, warning you that you could get into arguments or get a ticket for speeding. At the same time Mercury might be trine Jupiter, telling you it's a great time for communication of all sorts and short trips. When you think about it, in a single day, we deal with sometimes contradictory energies. If you put the two together, they'd read, "a great day for short trips as long as you watch your speed; you have a lot to say, but be willing to listen to someone else's point of view. " You can often make the good better by taking note of the precaution or you can blow a positive breeze by letting your ego be too large.

A SPIRITUAL GENERATION

This report is not religious in any way. But it is spiritual. All of you were born with an astrology that brings you into understanding spiritual dimensions of life not available to previous generations. East has met West, yoga and acupuncture and Tai Chi and meditation, even chiropractors were for the alternative crowd when many of your parents brought these and other "New Age" concepts in a generation ago. Today, they're more and more commonplace; just the beginning of what's to come.

You've been brought up with computers in an informational age where technology and the media are changing our lives so quickly it's not easy to keep pace. It may be harder to plan for the future, when the present moves so fast. Yesterday's model for marriage and close relationships doesn't really work today. In talking about your social and career aspects, we kept these things in mind.

YOU'RE CHANGING THE WORLD

Finally, you're adolescents and young adults at a time in history when major cycles are changing. We've just entered a new Astrological Age -- Aquarius, the age of Love. People have different ideas about what love means but Aquarius is already changing the way we think, work, play, relate. You're inheritors of a new world, one which many people in many lands believe will be a "Golden Age" preceded by incredible turmoil.

In writing to each of you and all of you, we do so with great respect and understanding, and with hopes that this book of changes will make a positive difference on your journey.

The original text of this report was written by Kathie Garica with Todd Henderson (age 24), Indra Garcia (age 19) and Eugene Garcia (age 17).

* * * HOW TO USE ASTROJOURNEY * * *

At the exact moment of your birth, the planets were in certain signs, in a certain relationship to one another. To erect your natal chart, the astrologer takes a picture of that moment, as if the heavens froze! The story of your life is written in the working out of these energies over time. Some are harmonious and others are challenging. Astrologers are able to predict what things happen when and for how long by evaluating the impact of transits. Transits compare the positions of a planet on a given date to a planet or position in your natal chart.

Using AstroJourney is easy!

* In your report you'll read the date on which a transit is exact on the left hand side. This is when its influence is strongest.

* In parentheses you'll see the full duration of the influence, when it comes into play and when it leaves.

* On the right hand side, you'll see the description of the transit which includes a transiting planet in aspect to a natal planet. For example : Merc Sxtil Ven means transiting Mercury is sextile natal Venus.

* Beneath is the interpretation of the influence.

UNDERSTANDING ASPECTS

Aspects are the astrologer's tool to understanding the nature of the relationship between two planets or positions:

Sextile (60 degrees) and Trines (120 degrees) show where energies flow harmoniously. Take advantage of these transits to lighten your load, move forward, get that date, etc.

Squares (90 degrees) are the most challenging of all aspects. Conquering a square can be difficult and requires discipline, but the prize is worth the effort.

Oppositions (180 degrees) challenge you in your relationships with other people. Sometimes you feel a real positive, even stimulating exchange of energy. Other times we deal with conflicts, confrontations, schisms, or separations. Someone else could be mirroring something about yourself you need to deal with but don't see.

Conjunctions (0 degrees) can go either way and depend much upon the nature of the two planets coming together. Venus and Jupiter is a fun, if potentially lazy, combination while Mars and Pluto can be pretty heavy since they both relate to anger and ego.

PLANETS IN HOUSES

Planets transiting through houses are going to highlight a specific area of your life for the duration of the transit according to the nature of the planet. AstroJourney will tell you when a transiting planet enters a particular house in your natal chart. The date on the left hand is the date the planet enters the house. In parentheses you'll see the duration of the transit. It will start a day earlier than the beginning date. This is when the transiting planet is on the house cusp. On the right hand side you'll see the name of the planet and the house its entering. For example, "Merc 4th H." means "transiting Mercury is entering the 4th house of your natal chart."

So, now you've got the pack, enjoy your journey!

You could feel very compelled to act out your impulses in trying to manifest your ideals during this cycle. Like the early 50's generation, who became the hippies and flower children and who have this challenge throughout their lifetime, your judgment may be faulty even when your ideals are pure. Be aware of the tendency of Uranus to erupt into your consciousness buried aspects of your psyche you may have to suddenly deal with and resolve. Avoid getting into fantasy stuff and narcissism. Some person or condition from the past could suddenly reappear on the scene. Think twice before taking detours due to unresolved rebellious behavioral patterns and attitudes. You could feel motivated to become a catalyst for social or political change. You're vulnerable to deception on the part of friends and getting involved in co-dependent liaisons. Beware of theft and cash flow problems due to unwise financial decisions.

Aug 30, 2020 (Aug 4, 2020 to Oct 9, 2020) Ura Conj MC

Big and sudden changes are inevitable. Certainly, sudden promotions and advances are possible now. An unexpected career change is not uncommon. If you're still in school, be willing to take new leaps even if it means you'll have to work harder. Changes forced upon you are disruptive but work out for the best. Sudden separations cause you to stand more on your own two feet. This transit is generally helpful for anyone whose work deals with science and technology. The influence of a mentor, coach or father figure could inspire you or challenge you. Beware: making impulsive decisions without preparation could set you back. If you've been hiding skeletons in the closet they could come out to haunt you.

Aug 30, 2020 (Aug 2, 2020 to Sep 26, 2020) sat sxtil moon

A time when emotional maturity and sustained effort pay off. You find that you can handle stuff that used to leave you dazed and confused. A great time to reorganize your work or home environment. Bring to fruition uncompleted tasks. Working with younger siblings or with children could prove very satisfying.

Sep 1, 2020 (Aug 30, 2020 to Sep 2, 2020) Mars Trine Ven

There's a basic drive to appreciate and taste life. This could be the time to get that new look! Desires are strong, and you could hook up with someone really special. If nothing's happening in the romance department, well, at very least enjoy a special time with your buds. Artists and other creative people should take advantage of this inspirationally stimulating influence.

Sep 7, 2020 (Sep 6, 2020 to Sep 9, 2020) Mars Oppos Asc

Beware! This transit almost always brings you into conflict with others. As Mars enters your house of important relationships and open enemies, interpersonal differences can easily become ignited, turning into WAR!!! The only way out is through the heart. Be considerate of others, but know that people will do what they will do. Strengthen your inner reserves.

Sep 8, 2020 (Sep 6, 2020 to Sep 9, 2020) Mars Sqr Sun

Keeping your cool, even under pressure, pays off big now. Blowing it could do more damage than you think. People are under stress, so try not to take things so personally. Feeling good about yourself is the key to keeping the peace. Think before you react.

Sep 16, 2020 (Sep 14, 2020 to Sep 17, 2020) Mars Sxtil Plu

Your sense of purpose and determination is intensified. You're working through some killer internal changes that could lead to great new beginnings. Changes made now could have long lasting consequences. Nevertheless, if you push too hard you could be too oppressive to yourself and others.

Sep 18, 2020 (Sep 16, 2020 to Sep 19, 2020) Mars Sxtil Merc

You're juiced. You're quick. Get in the game! You'll have no problem getting your point across now. A great influence for any kind of competition, all sorts of games, plugging into the computer, and interfacing with others.

Sep 20, 2020 (Sep 18, 2020 to Sep 21, 2020) Mars Conj Nep

This transit will stimulate subconscious and unconscious records and desires that can distort your perception considerably. The imagination is energized and should be constructively channeled. Ecstasy is a state of the heart, not a mind-delusion/drug. On the positive side: take care of, or counsel others; engage in deep meditation, profound devotion; experience significant psychological or physical healing. Problems don't go up in smoke, hide under sheets nor drown in a bottle. Remember always, you have more power over yourself than anyone else ever will! Seek the Inner Light!

Sep 23, 2020 (Sep 10, 2020 to Oct 3, 2020) Jup Sxtil Sun

Under this extremely positive influence, good news could come pouring in from many directions! You're likely to receive encouragement related to your future goals. Life's problems should find easy solutions. You may benefit from advice from a spiritual teacher, a parent, or older person. This transit is very beneficial for finances. Even though the going looks good, guard against foolish over-optimism. All else being equal, a great time to travel.

Sep 23, 2020 (Sep 22, 2020 to Sep 25, 2020) Mars Sxtil MC

This isn't the time to veg out. Write down a couple of things you really want to accomplish and go for it. Positive Mars cycles don't necessarily finish the job, but they get you going with extra umph! One of your parents, a coach, boss or older person could be instrumental in inspiring you to make it happen.

Oct 4, 2020 (Sep 25, 2020 to Oct 12, 2020) Jup Oppos Ura

So you say you want a revolution! Every group has its celebrated cause. Fanatical pursuit of the mission often results in hurt for all involved. Better to pursue change in yourself before looking to change the world. Anarchy and living dangerously leaves behind smoke and ashes. Tolerance lets everyone create their own space while harming none. Get with the American way; each one's right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Promise only that which you can deliver and be wary of those who talk big but don't come through.

Oct 8, 2020 (Oct 7, 2020 to Oct 10, 2020) Mars Sqr Jup

The ante's up, player! You're willing to gamble long and take risks. Despite the rush, you may not be on the roll you imagine. Chances are, you're overreaching the mark, underestimating the odds. Losses could be costly, so weigh the dice carefully before you place your bets.

Oct 15, 2020 (Oct 14, 2020 to Oct 17, 2020) Mars Sqr Ven

It's hard to be alone and it's hard to love. It hurts when you're sad and it hurts when you're close. It's time to feel it, time to work it out. Just close your eyes, dear...memories of betrayal and of ectasy. You're turned on, just don't turn your best friend off by coming on too strong. All the love you need is right where you are...

Oct 19, 2020 (Oct 18, 2020 to Oct 21, 2020) Mars Sxtil Ura

You're quick on your feet. A perfect time for new ideas, a breakthrough in thinking, a novel approach. If you've been restless for change, unless other major aspects strongly advise otherwise, this may be the time to take the leap!

Oct 20, 2020 (Aug 30, 2020 to Nov 18, 2020) Plu Sxtil Plu

Continual discovery, persistent searching and continual changes keep you on the move and growing. You are able to get to the very heart of things. A prime metamorphosis time!

Oct 21, 2020 (Oct 20, 2020 to Oct 22, 2020) Mars Sxtil Sun

You could be at your assertive best! Take advantage of any extra energy and self-confidence to get your projects moving. Self-improvement programs, sports and energetic leadership are all favored. Get out there and do it!

Oct 28, 2020 (Oct 27, 2020 to Oct 30, 2020) Mars Sqr Plu

Warning: you could do a lot of damage if you let your ego go unchecked. If you remember that it's not what happens so much as how you react that counts, you'll have an easier time keeping your cool. Stay away from dangerous places, gangs, violence. Be careful with guns and knives. Take it easy with cars and around machinery. All kids your age are dealing with this now; some are going to find it hard to sit on internal volcanoes. Resist the temptation to overpower others. You may have to deal with people who try to bully you. If you can handle the energy, you could cut through like never before in sports and important projects through the force of sheer determination and guts. Channel your fierceness into something that pays off.

Nov 2, 2020 (Nov 1, 2020 to Nov 3, 2020) Mars Oppos Sat

Accept the teaching and the understanding will follow. Some tough tests may come your way during this time span. Life is offering you sparring partners meant to help you increase your skills. If you buck the system, you could miss the point. Hidden opportunities presented to you in the form of coaches and trainers will increase your timing, judgment and grit. All skills acquired now will be on deck to serve you well later.

Nov 3, 2020 (Oct 21, 2020 to Nov 15, 2020) Sat Sqr MC

This transit forces your attention on the backbone areas of life; yourself, your close relationships, your family, your work and responsibilities. Conflicts are almost inevitable but show you places crying out for attention. Centeredness is the key or you may feel overstressed or tempted to get out of Dodge. Saturn cycles are growing cycles where you acquire important keys for mastering your connection with others and with the world.

Nov 9, 2020 (Nov 8, 2020 to Nov 10, 2020) Mars Oppos Moon

You're hanging on in a sea of emotion. A lot of stuff is coming up. Trouble is you could react, rather than reflect, and cause a lot of damage. How to keep the peace when everything is blowing up inside you? You've got a chance now to discover that attitudes and feelings that worked when you were a kid can really get in the way now. If you keep your objectivity, you can permanently change certain habit patterns for the better. Maybe you're totally okay but someone close to you acts really weird. Take a look. See yourself?

Nov 17, 2020 (Nov 16, 2020 to Nov 18, 2020) Mars Conj Mars

This transit, the Mars Return, is your thrust for the next two and a half years. Although romantic attractions often occur during this influence, compatibility and stability are not givens unless other aspects confer. Strong sexual attractions are common as well as a stimulated sexual drive. A lot of energy is available to you, making this the perfect time for initiating new cycles or for taking care of business. Be aware, however, if you're naturally impatient, proud, angry or short tempered, these qualities could be magnified. Set the course decisively with goals in mind.

Nov 18, 2020 (Nov 17, 2020 to Nov 19, 2020) Mars Sxtil Jup

Surf the South Seas, climb Mt. McKinley. Anything seems possible now! You're in the flow and everything's alright. So work it! A good time for buying a car and for traveling to CanCun. Negotiate the price down. Maxing your credit card out could be tempting.

Nov 24, 2020 (Nov 11, 2020 to Dec 9, 2020) Sat Sxtil Sat

Things may seem almost magical in the way they work out. This is the time to get it together, to push forward career projects and goals. That which you're currently working on should go well. If you do your part, and barring any other heavy influences that could get in the way, steady progress is almost guaranteed!

Nov 24, 2020 (Nov 23, 2020 to Nov 26, 2020) Mars Sxtil Ven

Nov 28, 2020 (Nov 1, 2020 to Dec 24, 2020) Plu Sxtil Merc

Pluto's searing rays open up mind-blowing vistas! You see it as it is. This is a time for study. You're especially fascinated with the details; mechanics, carpentry, choreography, healing arts. You're willing to explore unchartered realms, making this a good time to study psychology, astrology, strategy. Learn how positive thinking can change your life! Future success is proportionately related to current vision and effective communication. Travel related to schooling or business is favored.

Nov 29, 2020 (Nov 27, 2020 to Nov 30, 2020) Mars Sqr Ura

Alright, so you've got the Terminator doing battle with the Wolverine in your head! Whether the disruptive energy comes from within or from without the challenge is the same. Hard to referee, we know, but you can stay centered in the cage long enough to get these beasts to help break you out and live to see the next day. If you let these energies outplay themselves, others may wonder what happenned to the you they once knew. Hallucinogenics, jumping out of planes without chutes and other attempts at adventurous self destruction lead to an early grave. So much rebellious behavior is tired and worn out. Quit fronting, and find better worlds to conquer. The hero is meditating within; bow to one another and join forces.

Nov 30, 2020 (Nov 28, 2020 to Dec 1, 2020) Mars Trine Asc

You should be looking pretty good. Use this transit to improve your appearance. Think positive, cause you're set to win! You might enjoy participating in sports and other physical activities.
