Every Year we have an average of four eclipses. These occur near the lunar Nodes, which moved onto the Aries-Libra Axis late 2004.
April 8, 2005 @ 13:47 PDT - total solar eclipse at 19°Aries 6'
April 24, 2005 @ 14:46 PDT - penumbral lunar eclipse at 4° Scorpio 20'
October 3, 2005 @ 3:33 PDT - annular solar eclipse at 10°Libra 19' (within 3° of south node)
October 17, 2005 @ 5:03 PDT - partial lunar eclipse at 24°Aries 13'
Eclipses repeat at 19-year intervals (1929, 1948, 1967, and 1986). The previous ones in 1986: April 8, 1986 -19° Aries 7'; April 24, 1986 - 4°Scorpio 0'; October 3, 1986 - 10°Libra 16' and October 17, 1986 - 24°Aries 05'
The Saros cycle is 18 years long as basically all the variations of the lunar cycle align at that point. Both of the solar eclipses this year belong to the old, fading and less potent category, however, there are now eclipse trips you can take, the one next year is in Turkey where the visibility is good.
The North Node in Aries and South Node in Libra. The Nodal axis is about the relationship of the Sun and the Moon. Where the Sun's annual path against the Zodiac intersects with the monthly path of the Moon marks the position of the Nodes. The North Node is akin to the Sun as it demands that we take conscious action in that area of life as reflected by the sign and house location of this Node. The South Node like the Moon is a storage of memories, impressions, instinctive behaviour and the past. The themes repeat from the time periods shown for people born with north node in Aries.
Mean Node: November 29, 2004 - June 19, 2006
True Node: December 25, 2004 - June 20, 2006
Those born in between these dates have their north node in Aries (mean node):
June 18, 1930 - January 6, 1932
January 27, 1949 - August 17, 1950
September 9, 1967 - March 28, 1969
April 20, 1986 - November 8, 1987
November 29, 2004 - June 19, 2006
Those born in between these dates have their north node in Libra (mean node):
February 26, 1921 - September 15, 1922
October 8, 1939 - April 27, 1941
May 20, 1958 - December 7, 1959
December 29, 1976 - July 18, 1978
August 10, 1995 - February 27, 1997
Mercury in Sagittarius November 4, 2004 - January 9, 2005
Retrograde November 30, 2004 at 4:17 PST - 26° Sagittarius 43'
Direct December 19, 2004 at 22:28 PST - 10° Sagittarius 27'
Mercury in Aries March 4, 2005 - May 12, 2005
Retrograde March 19, 2005 at 16:14 PST - 14°Aries 06'
Direct at 1° Aries 45' around midnight April 12, 2005
Mercury in Leo June 27, 2005 - September 4, 2005
Retrograde July 22, 2005 19:00 PST

Mercury in Sagittarius October 30 - November 26, 2005 and December 12, 2005 - January 3, 2006
Retrograde in Sagittarius November 13- November 26, 2005
Retrograde in Scorpio November 26 - December 3, 2005
Direct December 3, 2005 in Scorpio
Mars in Taurus July 27 @22:12 PDT - February 17, 2006 @ 14:44 PST
Retrograde October 1, 2005 @15:04 PDT at 23°Taurus 02'
Mars opposite the Sun, ie. the Full Mars - November 6 @ 23:57 PST at 15°Taurus 01'
Direct December 9, 2005 @ 20:03 PST at 8°Taurus 14'
This repeats from 1926, 1958 (involved Gemini as well), and 1973 (direct station in Aries). Mars, however, hasn't spent this long a time in Taurus since 1926. Note Mars travels through the zodiac in about 26 months, during which he spends six months (avg. 780 days) in one sign or a 10-20° stretch of the zodiac, when two signs are involved. This leaves 20 months through the other 11 signs, which equals about six weeks per sign.
Full Venus, i.e. the superior conjunction of Sun and Venus on March 30, 2005 at 10°Aries 26' is the culmination of the Venus cycle launched in the Spring of 2001, and the key degrees in Aries are 17°44', 7°15' and 1°27'; with the middle one being the most pronounced. The shorter nine month cycle of Venus as the Morning Star concludes at this date and Venus becomes the Evening Star or perhaps we should call her Sophia of Wisdom for the next nine months.
November 5, 2005 @ 0:10 PST to December 15, 2005 @7:57 PST
Venus Retrograde in Capricorn Jan 1, 2006 @ 12:18 PST - Mar 5, 2006 @ 0:39 PST

March 5, 2006 @ 0:39 - Apr 5, 2006 @ 17:21
Venus stations retrograde December 24, 2005 @ 1°Aquarius 27'
Venus inferior conjunction January 13, 2005 at 23° Capricorn 40'
Venus turns direct February 3, 2006 at 16°Capricorn 01'
This is one of the five New Venus points launching a new cycle, which is a repeat from January 1998 and 1990 and which reaches the Full Venus phase in January 2010 at 20°Capricorn 32, which repeats from January 2002 and January1994.

If you are looking for more information about your year personally consider one of the two Solar Return Reports available online. These are written from your birthday to birthday. The one by Horacio Valescia is the most popular with my clients, the one by Mary Shea explains some of the astrologic behind the delineation. In addition I added a new predictive report by Gina Ronco on transits, which is like a personal horoscope, and I am getting a lot of requests from my clients for this one. There are also natal reports available for your child, yourself, your relationship and the latest addition is a Karmic Insight Report. The reports are insightful but cannot replace a personal consultion with an astrologer.
