The year horoscope is also drawn up on the basis of the birth horoscope (sometimes also called the birthday horoscope). This horoscope provides an individual with information about the themes in his or her life for the year to come:

This might be:

• social or professional tendencies
• areas of self development
• central areas of one's life

The horoscope should be seen as a tool to help improve organising and planning. It is not a charting of the future, but sets out relevant tendencies for the year to come.
