Your 7th house of love and marriage is not a House of Power this year. Normally this would show satisfaction with the status quo–and thus no major changes here. Singles would remain single, marrieds would remain married. By the way, this is the way Taurus likes things. Status quo is a happy state for Taurus.

But, as we mentioned earlier, your love planet will be eclipsed in the coming year–and not only that, it will be camping out on this eclipse point for many months. You might want the status quo, but change is definitely happening. Your marriage or current relationship (especially if it is your first marriage) is getting tested by the eclipse. (This applies to business partnerships as well.) Generally this brings out the dirty laundry in a relationship–the problems that have been repressed or suppressed. If the relationship is basically sound, it survives and even gets stronger. But if the relationship was flawed from the start, it can dissolve.

There are a few issues happening here. First, your love planet made a major move last year from happy-go-lucky Sagittarius to sober and conservative Capricorn. This changed your needs and attitudes in love. Love was basically happy-go-lucky and fun-loving for the past 15 years. Now, suddenly, it is more practical. You, or your beloved, are thinking differently about the relationship. And this creates stress. In some cases there is a feeling that the passion has gone out of the marriage–that you and your beloved have lost the ‘spark’, that you are just going through the motions coldly and mechanically–that, perhaps, the marriage is just a convenience and not a real romance. Third, the eclipse is happening. Sometimes the testing comes from dramas in the life of your partner or beloved–health issues or surgery–and is not the fault of the relationship per se.

Somehow or other the spark has to be reignited. With your kind of chart–with Pluto as your love planet–good sex will cover many sins. But this of itself won’t be enough. Material gifts and material support are important. And with your love planet in the 9th house–foreign journeys, second honeymoons, taking courses together as a couple, worshipping together as a couple–will also be a big help.

For singles, this eclipse of the love planet can actually signal a marriage–a change in your marital condition. With your love planet now in Capricorn, let love develop slowly–don’t try to test it. (The eclipse will test things on its own without your help.) While it is good to be practical in love and to want security, don’t go overboard and just marry for convenience (you are sorely tempted now)–those things rarely bring happiness in the long term. Sexual chemistry is always important for you, but also look for someone who is ‘philosophically’ compatible–someone who looks at life in a similar way to you.

You find love and social opportunities at educational or religious settings–at university or a university lecture–at church, synagogue, ashram or mosque–in foreign countries and perhaps with foreigners. You gravitate to foreign people these days–they are more exotic. Good education and refinement are also important to you. Love is seldom a smooth ride, but this year it seems even more bumpy than usual.

Those in, or working on, their second marriage also have a bumpy ride, as two dynamic planets–Saturn and Uranus–make stressful aspects to your love planet. Relationships are being tested.

Those working towards their third marriage have fabulous opportunities this year–it is likely to happen.

Friendships are much smoother and easier than romance. This, like last year, is a banner year for friends. New and prominent–high-status–people enter your circle of friends.
