💫Mars in the 2nd, 4th, or 6th house in the solar return will present us with many opportunities or situations that push us out of our comfort zone. If it's in a fire sign, it actively represents movement away from environments we previously perceived as safe; or places that made us feel unmotivated, low or pessimistic. In an earth sign, it can signify job changes or a gradual shift towards what genuinely feels sustainable rather than simply safe due to familiarity. In an air sign, it represents leaving social or friend circles in search of something healthier; it can even symbolize a change in mindsets that keep us trapped in lifestyles and environments that drain us. In water signs, it often manifests as letting go of what we were attached to or what used to sustain us emotionally; we leave to prioritize our emotional well-being.

💫Having Air signs in the 5th house in your Solar Return can bring a strong need for contact with other people, even if you are an introvert. You may find yourself feeling loneliness a bit more intensely and gradually wanting to interact with friends, partners, family, or any circle you consider important. It could even represent an openness to meeting new people or many opportunities to form bonds that will bring you much happiness.

💫Moon in the 7th, 10th, or 11th house in your solar return chart can bring you a great amount of protection, care, and affection from others this year. You may feel very supported, understood, and listened to when you reach out to help. This last point is especially important if you have difficulty relying on others for support. If that's the case, then it's very likely that this year you'll gradually learn to do so.

💫Looking again at the Moon in the solar return, we can see sources of comfort not only from its position in this chart, but also from the house it falls in in our natal chart.

- If your Solar Return Moon falls in your natal 12th house, periods of solitude, creating art, music, or spiritual pursuits can bring you comfort.

- If your Solar Return Moon falls in your natal 6th house, building a routine that considers your moods or giving your emotions space to express themselves can be helpful. It's a perfect year for your body to stop being in alert mode and embrace the coziness of spaces for rest.

- If your Solar Return Moon falls in your natal 11th house, friendships, the internet, or taking small steps toward your aspirations and dreams can bring you not only comfort, but also satisfaction.

- If your Solar Return Moon falls in your natal 4th house, going to places you used to love, watching movies you really enjoy, or reconnecting with activities/hobbies you left behind due to stress or growing up too much can feel great.

💫Jupiter in the 3rd, 6th or 9th house in the solar return is usually a great indicator to learn something new this year, attend courses that catch our attention and even resume a language or skill that we used to be in the process of learning but left aside (this becomes stronger especially if Jupiter is retrograde).

💫For those who want to open themselves up to meeting a romantic prospect, we can see some indicators in the solar return, mainly involving the 5th and 7th houses: North Node in the 5th house (an active and/or very significant romantic life this year) or 7th house (the possibility of meeting someone with whom we connect romantically in a gradual way; it also opens the possibility of a serious and/or very important relationship). Venus in the 5th or 7th house, especially if it's harmoniously aspecting Saturn or Mars. Jupiter falling in the 5th or 7th house. Ruler of the 11th house in the 5th/7th house (shows the possibility of getting to know someone that could become our partner; from stranger to friend to partner). Ruler of the 7th in the 5th/7th house.

💫People with Ceres in the 3rd house have the ability to nurture others through their communication, and this goes beyond a soothing voice or empathic speech. It's the weight of their words. Even when they aren't trying to be deep, they can delve into the inner world of those they interact with. They have the ability to nourish the spirit of others with what they need to hear at that moment, something like a gentle wake-up call. It's precisely this calm and emotionally grounded demeanor that can lead them to be seen as "mom-friends" or very protective of those around them.

💫Now that I mentioned Ceres, those that have Ceres in the 3rd, 5th, or 11th house are often highly creative. Ceres in the 3rd house indicates very active minds with the ability to brainstorm ideas and develop projects that ignite their passion and that put into words what lies inside them. Since Ceres it's associated with productivity and fertility (even in the metaphorical sense), its placement in the 5th house greatly benefits creative minds, as they can bring to life numerous ideas that benefit both themselves and others. And finally, Ceres in the 11th house may lead to finding inspiration in things that go unnoticed by others. These individuals tend to be highly visual and possess the ability to nurture an idea until it becomes a reality.

💫When Ceres forms aspects with Juno (especially conjunction, trine or sextile), we find a person who views commitment as something where both partners strive to actively make the other feel good. The signed paper isn't enough, nor is simply living together, but they put a lot of focus on nurturing the bond. The other's well-being becomes a priority, and this is usually expressed equally. They may attract a future spouse who is very emotional and attentive to their needs, actively seeking to fulfill them.

💫A Juno harmoniously aspecting the ruler of your 8th house can signify a future spouse who is very financially stable. The same is true if Juno forms positive aspects with Venus, Jupiter, or Pluto. Venus, due to its direct connection with money. Jupiter, because of the abundance it represents. And Pluto, since it represents power.

💫Trines, as aspects, often represent things that come naturally to us. They can be qualities we possess from a young age or those that others readily recognize in us. And while the sextile is also a positive aspect, I agree with what I've read from some astrologers and practitioners: that sextiles represent character traits that develop with some work or effort. For example, those with a Sun-Mars sextile can feel the push to put their wants or ideas into actions, but they need to discipline, guide, and allow their energy to be expressed so that it can bring results to their lives. Similarly, I've noticed, both in the charts of those close to me and in my own, that the qualities of the sextile tend to become more pronounced as one gets older.

💫Your 7th house is closely connected to how you are perceived at work. While the 10th house alone highlights your overall reputation and the image you cultivate for yourself; using the derivative house system, the 7th house is the 10th house of your 10th house. This house specifically reflects your reputation in your work area and in the field you ultimately call your career.

- Those with their 7th house in Aries, Scorpio, or Capricorn can be highly respected in their work environment, even a bit intimidating. You may have that drive and the impression of being very ambitious, constantly seeking to grow. This can make you seem like someone who is difficult (or exciting, depending on the person) to compete with. Positions of power, prestige, or opportunities for advancement are likely.

- Those with Aquarius or Leo in the 7th house can excel in their work, innovate in some way, and become highly recognized. An authentic quality seems to shine through more easily in their work. The expressiveness of these individuals and the freedom with which they move in these environments even lends them the role of role model or trendsetter.

- Virgo or Gemini in the 7th house makes the native stand out for being very resourceful and even highly skilled in many diverse areas. When people at work, especially their bosses, talk about them, they highlight their astuteness and ease in learning new things and adapting skillfully to any environment. It's worth noting that they tend to be the ones who take on many different tasks, sometimes even those not originally assigned to them. Boundaries are crucial, as is ensuring that pay is commensurate with the workload.
