Any aspect "in the sky" refers more to general events--like the country or the world--than to personal ones. However, when one of these turns up in a return chart, it is likely to have a personal effect in your life--for the period of the Return--here one year.

Something that "breaks loose" for everyone, in some way "sets you free." One possibility is that it becomes general knowledge that people can do something that was never recognized before. That knowledge then becomes integrated into your life, so that you are free to go past some of your own old limits of belief.

Now, your chart has a lot of fixity in it, which means you are not really happy about changes. If you fight those changes--and you probably will at first--this could be quite painful. However, forewarned is forearmed. The more you can relax, let go, let it happen, the better year you will have.

Every time fears come up, find something to do that will distract you. That can be light reading, silly TV, exercise--or anything that will pull your attention away from the fears. Really work on this, and the changes effected during the coming year can become permanent improvements in your life.

Mars is trine Uranus and sextile Saturn
Jupiter is sextile Uranus and trine Saturn

so the Saturn-Uranus opposition won't be all that difficult
