WESTERN HEMISPHERIC EMPHASIS in your yearly Solar Return chart

Nine or all of the planets in the western part of the solar return chart signify that actions are not based on independent needs since you respond in combination with others.

 Even those with numerous placements in the 5th house push for self-expression while maintaining relationships. Those with placements in the 9th house reassess their beliefs according to their interactions with others and their ability to manifest spiritual concepts in daily situations. 

This is a time when actions are defined with consideration toward others. 

Carrying this interpretation one step further, you may not want to act independently this year. Perhaps you will not initiate activities on your own, but prefer to follow others or become involved with their projects. Some individuals will be waiting for others to either make major decisions or lead the way into new experiences. During this time, you can grow more dependent on others or they become more dependent on you. The focus is on other people and what they can do for you, what you need to do for them, and what you can learn from each other. 

The danger with the western chart is that you may become too focused on others and lose sight of your own individuality. You can spend the year catering to the needs of others while your own needs are not met. The strength of any relationship you are involved in is no guarantee that the relationship will be beneficial to you personally. You could stand to lose a lot: all your initiative, independence, and self-interest. 

But there are more positive interpretations. This is a good time to consult with others. You may achieve more through compromise and cooperation than independent action. Perhaps your goals can only be accomplished through the assistance of others, and you need feed-back and guidance to stay on the right track. Consulting with someone who is an authority in your field of interest or has experienced similar situations will make your tasks easier. This is a time for listening to others and gathering objective information. You can also Ask me Free  via Chat in Reddit or Ask the Community in REDDIT
