You Say It's Your Birthday...
Because Facebook tells you when people have birthdays, I've been getting birthday greetings all day, which is quite cool. I'm 30-freaking-9 today. 39! Still quite stunned how that happened. I am now stuffed with shrimp, so much so that Da Man and I are thinking we'll forgo to Chocolate Cookie Dough Cake in the fridge.

What I wanted to do was search around and see what the internets/stars say is in store for me for the year. According to Cafe Astrology:

A trine between the Sun and the Moon in your Solar Return chart this year is a fortunate aspect. It suggests that your domestic and career needs are not in competition with one another in the year ahead. Your inner needs tend to be mirrored by external events, and vice versa. This aspect is very powerful and rewarding. It suggests that you will be on top of your game this year, for the most part, and positive connections with others can be made fairly easily. A comfortable level of personal popularity helps to keep conflict to a minimum. With the ability to handle your emotions successfully, there is less stress on both your mind and body. Your self-confidence and positive attitude will reward you!

In terms of major outer transits, you're finishing up with a Pluto transit square to your Sun, which produced intense energy in your life for the past few years. This can be seen as somewhat of a release. Ideally, you are much stronger now, with a gutsy sense of self.

The year ahead is bound to be productive and busy. Figuring strongly this year are new developments in--and new attitudes towards--love matters, finances, and social relationships. Your creative and love urges are powerful indeed. New friendships, or new spins on established connections, are in your forecast. New ideas and projects abound! Focusing will be the key to success. You are taking on new responsibilities, but generally enjoying the challenges.

Not bad! Can't help but think of that little tenure thing while reading some of this...
