Saturn and North Node, almost throughout the year, will maintain their position in Scorpio, which is the 12th Sign from yours. Jupiter will be aspecting your Sign for half the year and later it will enter the 8th House from your Sign.
Fame is most distinctly on the cards. Personal and professional partnerships are likely to develop. If there is litigation going on, you will most probably win the cases. If your life partner is a professional, you may be benefited directly or indirectly by him/her. You will also learn to keep a tight leash on your expenses. That was the positive part in a nutshell. On the negative side, you will have to face some really tough challenges owing to Saturn and North Node's transit through the 12th Sign from yours. There may be a crippling sense of frustration that your hard work is not yielding the desired results.
The transit of Uranus through the 5th House from your Sign suggests that you may take up some extra-ordinary hobbies. You may shed all your unnecessary inhibitions and express your feelings and emotions more freely. Lovers and married couples will be enjoying their heydays. Your spirits will be so high that you may be in love with everything in life. The transit is also auspicious for travelling far and wide, meeting people from different cultures, and absorbing the knowledge you gain in the process. Those of you with a creative inclination ought to make the best use of this phase.
Things on the domestic front may not be so rosy, though, what with Neptune's transit through the 4th House from your Sign, which suggests that there may be some turmoil at home and with your near and dear ones, largely because you may be taking your responsibilities towards them too lightly. It can be very frustrating for them; especially your parents may now require your constant attention. Don't let them get the feeling that you don't care about them, or make them feel unwanted; they brought you up, says Ganesha, now it's your turn to take care of them. A change of residence is foreseen. During the year, with the ruler of your Sign being Jupiter, you will not mind learning new things, but the whole process may seem to be too tedious and boring for you. It may also irritate you, and you may not like it because you are the happy-go-lucky types.
You may be gripped by a sense of financial insecurity with Pluto's transit through the 2nd House from yours. You will have one eye constantly on your bank balance, and unless there is enough in there, you may start feeling jittery about managing even the routine expenses of your life. The positive offshoot of this is that you will become acutely conscious about increasing your savings, and therefore will avoid all unnecessary expenses. You will work hard to augment your earnings so that you can save more, thereby securing your old age. You will understand the value of money better than ever before, and will realise that a penny saved is a penny earned.
Archer's Home and Domestic Life in 2013
On the domestic front, there may be some confusion about who is responsible for what, which may tempt you to shun responsibilities. This is not how things should be ideally, for you should not hesitate in taking up whole-heartedly responsibilities, which you ought to. And this behaviour of yours, if it continues, may be resented by your family members.
You will have to understand that everyone needs to share equal responsibility, even you. But, that may not be practically possible, leading to huge gaps in expectations – yours from your family members and vice versa – and priorities. You would want to pursue your hobbies, work and social activities, while your family members will want you to pay more attention to them, family work and their needs, and hence the divide. This divide will not be bridged, unless you take on at least your basic responsibilities. It is your basic duty towards your near and dear ones. Ganesha feels unless you come to your senses soon, you may end up frittering away the entire year in an irresponsible way. Renovating your home or refurnishing it may shrink your savings, but there may not be any other alternative.
Archer's Love Life in 2013
Ganesha foresees that you may become committed to a relationship this year. You may start to think seriously about tying the knot with this person. Whether your family is in favour of it or not, with Jupiter's transit through the 7th Sign from yours, your partner at least will be serious about the wedding taking place in the first half of the year itself.
If your life is all tangled up in relationships with more than one person, you will be able to overcome the confusion about which one is more suited for you, and then things will become clearer. This year is ideal for married couples to strengthen the bonds by getting more intimate, and becoming more demonstrative about your love. You would be well advised to take a few days off and take your spouse for a vacation to some quaint, romantic place, where expressing your heart-felt love will not be so difficult.
Archer's Health Graph in 2013
If you don't pay heed to advise given by elderly members of your family, you may encounter many petty health issues during this year. Apart from suggesting that you ought to listen to your well-wishers, Ganesha advises you to tackle the restlessness in your mind on a priority basis. Don't overwork, especially don't work till late in the nights, or else it will deprive you of sleep, and remember that if your body doesn't get enough rest, how would you expect it to function at an optimum level the next day? Be regular in your eating and sleeping habits, to avoid minor health problems, as well as to be able to work more efficiently.
You also need to strictly control your diet, because you may be prone to diabetes. If you are habituated to drinking, take immediate steps to gradually get rid of the habit completely, or else it may have irreversible long-term consequences on your health. You also would be advised to avoid spicy foodstuffs that can upset your stomach, or adversely affect your potency. Women need to be alert about gynaecological problems, so have regular check-ups.

Archer's Career and Finance in 2013
Though your career is on the upswing, it does not necessarily mean that there will be financial progress too. Ganesha foresees that you may be given more responsible projects to handle at your office. Your seniors will be relying on you, which will encourage you to work harder, but be careful of going beyond the limits that your body and mind can handle, or else it may lead to fatigue and adversely affect your creativity. You might get the strange feeling that some colleagues are conspiring against you, because they may not be cooperating with you in your work. At times, you may have to go solo. Nothing to worry, though, as your Natal potential is very strong, and your Sign's Lord Jupiter is going to be exalted in the second half of the year, so you will be showered with power and knowledge that will keep you going.
Ganesha foresees that there may be a promotion on the way, because the stars are in your favour, but if you are looking for a change, such as a departmental transfer or even a job change, you may have to wait a little longer, but it will surely happen. However, even if you get another job, you would be advised to stick to your location, as this year is not favourable for relocating. Also, this year you may not be able to strike a balance between your personal and professional responsibilities, and you will most probably end up giving more importance to your career at the cost of your family life.
Your financial fortunes may fluctuate this year, but, Ganesha says, you will learn the art of saving money and by the end of the year you will be in a pretty comfortable position. You may have to cut down on all unnecessary expenses, maybe even lower your standard of living, but you need to value your own hard-earned money and make adequate provisions for the rainy day. In the latter part of the year, you are likely to receive financial support from your spouse. All in all, this is a fairly good year, albeit with some struggle thrown in.
