2009: a year to build on long-term plans for the future

Your mood
You’re finished with the futile and the trivial. You've moved on, and now's the time to blossom into a stable, responsible person (oh yes!). Which basically means you feel like your life should get serious and you should stop wasting time, settle down and start building for your future. The kind of need for security that usually creeps in when we're approaching the big 3-0...

What's in store?
You’re going to find self-confidence, express yourself and consolidate what you’ve achieved this year. This could mean getting a stable job, making big decisions in your personal life (getting married, having a baby or moving in together), or even buying a house. Whatever you do, you’ll lay down long-term foundations for the future.

What to bear in mind
Don’t confuse what you want with what other people want you to do. “If you only had 5 years to live, what would you do with them?” says our expert. Your mum might dream of seeing you happily married off to Jeremy next door, but if you’re more interested in his bad boy elder brother…it’s your life!
