I just finished up illustrations for the 2014 Astrology Calendar for Llewellyn Worldwide. Here is the cover art I did earlier this year. I'll hopefully be able post the interior illustrations for each sign at some point. For the sake of fitting everything on the cover, I had to use some of the symbolic animals/objects (crab, scorpion, ox, etc) whereas for the individual illustrations, each one is personified instead; I tried to take special care with each one. :) You can preorder the calendar if you like, or just check out the rest of Llewellyn Worldwide's offerings at www.llewellyn.com.
(edit: I realize looking at it now that Sagittarius' archery form is very off; I had help getting the actual Sagittarius illustration properly posed, so hopefully I can show that soon :) )

Since you've done picture of the astrology, ever thought of doing the Chinese zodiac? Or perhaps the "Black Zodiac"?

Well, the zodiac pieces I have done were commissioned by Llewellyn Worldwide. I probably wouldn't do a similar project (other zodiacs, tarot decks, etc) unless a publisher commissioned me to do it, mainly because they are really big undertakings. When I have free time, I'd rather work on my own original art and do what inspires me at the moment. :)

Wish I could commission you. I'd love to see you do those Zodiacs I mentioned. Although the "Black Zodiac" is something I came up with. Or at least my own version of. That each sign would be the opposite of the European Zodiac. Such as:

The Fire Bearer

The Eel

The Sloth

The Coo-coo

The Cyclops

The Squid

The Hyena

The Whore

The Shackles

The Nexus

and the Jackal
