Virgo horoscope for 2008

Life: This year will be one of heavy responsibilities for you, but that's not necessarily bad. You're the type of person who wants to lead a purposeful life, and it will be abundantly clear your services are desperately needed throughout 2008. Happily, one of your more odious duties will come to an end on February 21st, when a Lunar Eclipse allows you to move on to greener pastures. There's also good news on the home front. For the past few years, you have been preoccupied with family secrets and deep depressions. At long last, the clouds will part and your domestic life will be bathed in delicious sunshine. Finding pleasure will become something of an obsession for you. The decision to write a book, plant a garden, have a child, or find romance will keep you happily focused for the foreseeable future.

Love: 2008 promises to be a very exciting year as far as romance is concerned. A dark, magnetic figure could enter your life, engulfing you with passion. If you're already in a committed relationship, watch out. This newcomer could prompt you to stray. Beware of getting embroiled in a secret love affair, or great heartache could ensue. If you can't get your mind off of your new love interest, do the honourable thing and break things off with your partner. Then and only then should you embark on a new relationship. It's understandable that you're tempted to cut ties with an existing union, as it has been rocked by uncertainty for the past several years. Understand, though, that these disruptions are bound to continue, regardless of who you are with. What will your role be in creating these upheavals.

Loot: A new job could come along in the two weeks after February 7th, when a Solar Eclipse lights up your sixth house of work and service. It appears as though this position will appeal to your inner visionary and while this assignment could come to an end near August 16th, thanks to a Lunar Eclipse, it will put a nice chunk of change in your pocket. Fortunately, you'll have another opportunity to find work on September 29th, but be aware that this job won't be nearly as fun as the one that preceded it. A sudden windfall from an inheritance, insurance payment, or tax refund could arrive near March 7th. Be sure to put the majority of this money in a savings account, where it will keep you going during leaner times.

Luck: Your greatest luck arrives through romance, children, and creative projects. A new love could make you feel like you're walking on air. If you're already in a relationship, you have a rare opportunity to reignite the passionate feelings that initially drew you together. Conceiving or adopting a child will add great joy to your household. If you have kids, they will teach you to take a more light hearted approach to life. One of the best ways to take advantage of your good fortune is to express your artistic side. Painting, drawing, writing, and playing music will put you in the path of love and money.
