The Stars Say: Interior Horoscope for 2015

In the New 2015 year, two important astrological events will take place. The first one — Saturn will change the sign of the always revolutionary Scorpio to the sign of the agitator Sagittarius. Words and deeds will not match, so only a few signs should begin renovation next year. And even then, don't expect you'll be able to complete it in a short time. The second event is expected closer to autumn: Jupiter will leave the sign of Leo and move into the sign of Virgo, which means it's time to engage in handcrafts and decorate your interior with lovely items close to your heart.

Aries: Focus on Renovation

Abandon any hope that in the new year you will get away with just minor cosmetic repairs to your apartment: the beginning of 2015 is an ideal time to make a plan for renovation work for the year. Break it down by months and start acting. Cosmic energies are such that either you will work on your dwelling by your own desire or under compulsion from the planets. Therefore, show initiative — and you will be spared surprises that throw you off course. And Saturn will provide you with the strongest and most reliable elements — both workers and materials.

The most suitable style for you is one with clearly defined forms. When choosing furniture, pay attention to its durability and strength first. If you are a fan of white color, in 2015 prefer cream, pale peach or pale beige shades.

Twins: Time for Bold Accents

Thanks to the patronage of spontaneous Uranus, unexpected ideas similar to flashes of inspiration will come to your mind. Implement them boldly! Shock the minds of friends, create in the style of Salvador Dalí, buy strange items. However, there should be a little exclusive creativity: just one original item in the room will suffice — whether it's a designer chair or a table. Or throw pillows on the sofa in the shape of Marilyn Monroe's lips — and you will see how drastically your interior transforms.

Keep the interior in a unified muted color, slightly brighter, as if covered with almond powder or champagne foam. Mirrors should preferably be slightly darker. The background should in no case dominate and draw attention to itself.

Taurus: Retro Style Atmosphere

Pluto will be your patron for the entire year, and in autumn, Jupiter as well. How to please both such different mentors? One requires respect for antique items and things with history; the other is oriented towards generous hospitality.

Prepare for the fact that in your home you will be entertaining guests. You'll have to buy table settings and cutlery and pay special attention to setting the table. And don't be afraid of appearing old-fashioned: acquire tablecloths, embroidered napkins in a fashionable maroon color. Let the covered table become an accent in your interior.

Magically attract prosperity into your home with accessories made of bronze and dark stone: sculptures, souvenirs. Also, thick volumes on the shelves: encyclopedias, rare books. If it happens, though unlikely, that you have to choose furniture, go for Scandinavian style.

Crab: DIY Mood

2015 is ideal for creativity: start giving new life to old things. You can cover an old nightstand with arabesques, stretch fabric from your grandmother's skirt over the frame of a lampshade, coat something destined for the trash with varnish and create a lantern from old bottles. Mix antiques, ethnic patterns, vases from flea markets, a log chair with modern furniture made of synthetic glass or acrylic, like the works of designer Philippe Starck.

The planets suggest paying special attention to lighting arrangement when the room is dimly lit but brightly illuminated by a chandelier or floor lamp in the area where you are — even a small room will seem like an unlimited space. Walls painted with various colors also expand the space. A bright orange can pulse against a wall painted blue with cadmium. You will like it!

Lion: Need for Unlimited Space

Richness, free of unnecessary details — this trend for 2015 suits you best. Recall the era of jazz and try to live without bustling details. And if your shelves are overloaded with accessories, glass them with smoked glass. Make sliding doors for your wardrobes so that they seem to not exist at all, but rather a single wall that can be decorated with a large contemporary painting, graphics or even graffiti.

Clean and simple forms can sometimes be diversified with ovals. The floor can be covered with large tiles or dark laminated flooring in the style of wide planks. Choose cool shades: gray, lilac-gray, smoky blue. Try to ensure your furniture doesn't stand out from the overall palette of floor, ceiling and walls. And luxury will remind you of muted gold color. Possibly large vases for flowers and fruits, or a plastic chair in the style of an oval rocking chair.

Virgo: Warm Interior and the Same Mood

Jupiter will enter your sign in the second half of the year. To enhance its beneficial influence, fill your home with bright sunny colors. Yellow in combination with orange best sets a positive tone for a person. If you don't have time to renovate, inject this color into your interior in the form of decorative pillows or make new bright upholstery for your old sofa and armchairs.

You can also paint window frames — then a sunny day will forever reside in your home. Curtains can replace light string lights or strings of glass-like sticks, but always emitting warm tones.

A pleasant addition to such an interior can be a vividly green bed with thick pile (it will pleasantly remind you of summer) and wall clocks in the form of sunflowers or the sun. By the way, warmth and kindness to your home can also be provided by items that don't evoke associations with summer and sunshine: for example, a plush bear from your childhood.

Libra: Lightness and Airiness in Priority

Unlike all zodiac signs, you should avoid everything associated with vintage and retro in this year. Thoroughly clean your apartment of unnecessary old items from the past. From previous times, only glass, crystal and onyx items should be kept. It is even worth buying new ones.

Wishing to update your interior, pay special attention to items made of glass, plastic or with nickel-plated surfaces. Choose oversized objects. And let them not be cheap — Saturn (in this year for you it acts as a gold reserve) suggests starting a collection of items made from these materials.

The textile should be light (prefer semi-transparent curtains), and the wallpapers must be light-colored (if not white, then preferably with warm undertones). Accent colors should be bright red, as bold as a Pioneer tie from the USSR era, scatter them throughout your apartment — they will attract many joyful moments into your home and money as well.

Scorpio:

Guided by Personal Memories

Saturn will leave your sign and like a liberation of your fantasy: now you can look back and get rid of all heavy, gloomy items in your home, and breathe freely. Experiment with your interior, fill it with everything that will make you smile; boldly buy items speaking about traditions of different countries.

And let your apartment begin to resemble a ship's cargo hold that has completed a round-the-world voyage: a cheap Chinese table might neighbor a carved stool from India, copper plates from Egypt hanging on the walls, and a Baltic handwoven rug on the floor.

And if you suddenly have an idea to change the wallpaper, think about whether you don't want to cover your room walls with wood paneling? Even in a city apartment, imitation boards on the walls can become a stylish background for a colorful, diverse interior: all incompatible items will easily blend into a unified style.

Sagittarius: Less Is More

Saturn will enter your zodiac sign and give you seriousness. You, like Scorpio, can fill your space with items that evoke memories of distant countries, but they should be much more substantial. No plastic or synthetic materials. Only noble natural materials. Even the curtains on windows should be replaced with heavy draperies.

First of all, put away, so to speak, in a distant chest all those trinkets that relatives and friends gave you in recent years and that you have a habit of displaying. Or give them to flea market vendors. There, by the way, you can find oversized items of antiquity at a reasonable price that after a small restoration will shine as new. For example, an old chest like the one that must belong to a ship captain. Because in 2015, the stars will appoint you as a captain of your own apartment and family, which is not little.

Capricorn: Lightness in Everything

Pluto, and in the second half of the year also Jupiter, will be your patron. It's not worth dedicating this year to renovating your apartment. Simply give it some special elegance with various accessories. Elaborate perfume bottles, engravings or their copies, porcelain figures like Meissen porcelain, which by the way is now sharply decreased in price, can become a worthy decoration for your interior.

In autumn, Jupiter will begin attracting guests to your home — think about what you'll use to set the table. Even if you are a solid man, light, porcelain tableware won't harm your image but will instead add social weight in a mystical way.

Also, don't forget about aromas and flowers in elegant flower pots on the windowsill: let them bloom, and at the same time improve the atmosphere in your apartment.

Aquarius: Home as Cosmos

Like Scorpio, Saturn will also free you from its pressure and start giving pleasant surprises, making you feel a sense of freedom. Now you can calmly look into the future and fill your home with all kinds of ultra-modern appliances that make life easier.

Some Aquarians will take renovation so seriously that their space will begin to resemble interiors from science fiction movies: cool colors, metal panels, ultra-modern technology.

If your apartment cannot boast of square meters, pay attention to transformable furniture: with it, you will feel like the owner of a multi-room space. And LED lighting will give you the long-awaited feeling of cosmic presence.

Pisces: Bright Strokes for Your Favorite Interior

It's not worth starting radical changes in your home in the coming year — it's better to limit yourself to small changes. For example, work with home textiles: in 2015, it makes sense to pay special attention to fabrics in the style of the 60s, bright neon colors called "pull out your eyes" in popular culture. Such colorful textile accents in the form of decorative pillows and cushions, chair seat upholstery, even lampshades will make your interior in the new year a truly spectacular space.

Of course, you can also turn to natural materials: a wooden coffee table in the shape of a guitar will catch guests' gazes — they won't even notice unfinished work in your home.
