In <a href=\"http:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/ohmystars\/2018\/01\/reshape-universe-astrology-2018-part-two-means.html\" target=\"_blank\">Part Two<\/a>,\u00a0 I covered how Jupiter will give you both the optimism and good fortune to face the challenges ahead. Now, in the final part of the series, <strong>I&#8217;m going to tell you about the third astrological event of 2018 that will enable you to plow into the things that are holding you back.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>THE OPPORTUNITY IS SATURN TRINE URANUS.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/ohmystars\/files\/2013\/09\/u-are-here-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-10\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.beliefnet.com\/sites\/360\/2013\/09\/u-are-here-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Nature Photography\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As most of you know by now, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/ohmystars\/2017\/12\/saturn-capricorn-sees.html\" target=\"_blank\">Saturn has begun its long trip through Capricorn.<\/a> Some of you are meeting this with dismay, and as I&#8217;ve argued before this is probably going to be much more of a good thing than a bad thing for you. In fact, <strong>Saturn will be so strongly placed for the next two and a half years that it can&#8217;t help but bring some vital structure and order to your life somehow.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Uranus leaves Aries and enters Taurus in mid-May this year<\/strong>, and it does not retreat back into Aries until early November. <strong>This means that Saturn trine Uranus will be in effect for most of this year.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>How is that helpful? This relatively rare aspect Is a combination of the structure and resilience of Saturn with the energetically unique brilliance of Uranus. If these planets were joined by a more problematic aspect, like the square or opposition, this could frankly produce a great big mess. I often call trines &#8220;lazy&#8221;: they may combine the energies of two planets in a harmonious and useful way, but the trine does not shout its presence. It doesn&#8217;t slap you in the face like a harder to handle aspect would. If you want to get the most out of a trine, you need to be aware of it and do the work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I&#8217;m telling you: you will want to do the work this year.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A lot of people dismiss astrology as being too fatalistic, as if you don&#8217;t have your hands on the wheel of your own life. I admit that even sometimes I fall into the trap of thinking that way. <strong>So: let&#8217;s all make the unique circumstances of 2018 work for us.<\/strong> You may not be able to have it <em>all<\/em> in this life, but I&#8217;ll bet you can probably think of something or other that you want to have that you don&#8217;t yet, whether it is stability in your finances or a sense of fulfillment with your career or happiness with your love life, or whatever it is you may be wanting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>This is the year you can get to work on those things, probably unlike ever before.<\/strong> Don&#8217;t disappoint me, and even more importantly? <em>Don&#8217;t disappoint yourself.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/ohmystars\/about-matthew-currie.html\" target=\"_blank\"><em>CLICK HERE to find out how you can get a personalized, informative, life-changing consultation that will help you take charge of your life in the next year!<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/matthewtheastrologer\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>CLICK HERE to join the OH MY STARS Facebook Fan Page, and get exclusive content, an additional discount on a reading, and more material on blog entries!<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Part One of this series, I discussed the secret hidden strength of this year&#8217;s transits that will give you the encouragement to make the changes for yourself that you really need to change&#8230; your motive, if you will.
