I am still trying to decipher my Solar Return. I found this article very helpful. Eventually want to get her book, Predicting Events with Astrology and Identifying Planetary Triggers by Celeste Teal. I read alot of it at the bookstore and eventually want to pick it up. It will help you greatly with Solar Returns and all other aspects of predictive astrology.

Here's a fab article by her:
INTERPRETING THE SOLAR RETURN
By Celeste Teal http://www.llewellynjournal.com/article/391

Remember, the house in which the Sun falls, will be very important for the whole year. Also very important, the ruler of the rising sign, and it's house placement.
I recently learned that Mars is the only planet that 'doesnt have a cycle' so pay close attention to it. You can also pay attention to transits to hot spots in the SR chart.
