Overview

The main reading

You do have the habit of being impulsive, but it is your confidence at getting a task done that makes you a good leader. The Moon in your own sign is going to make you feel very optimistic today, about a situation that had been quite frustrating and going out of control. You will take the responsibility of straightening it out without anybody’s interference and will immediately get the first taste of success. You love to take up challenges as you do not allow unconventional routes to deter your movement ahead. It’s a risk you are always willing to take. Between 12:05 pm and 2:00 pm is auspicious and you must schedule anything important during these hours. Wearing any shade of green will prove lucky for you.

Love

Romance and relationships

Today you will be put in a position in which it will make more sense to compromise with your partner over something than to dig your heels in and stand your ground. This will likely be over a relatively small issue that is more important to your partner than to you. Choose your battles today and try to keep the peace overall.

Career

Work and ambition

To wrap up pending work quickly you may have to inspire subordinates to give their best at this time. Team work is essential. However, not everyone may feel so inspired, so choose those who show some potential for motivation. Your technical skills may be tested as you are given challenging assignments at work. Some of you can expect recognition or award for an outstanding achievement today.

Finance

Money and resources

Self-indulgence and lavish spending burn a hole in your pocket. Today your disposable income will go towards gadgets and electronic goods. Make sure you can afford what you are buying and you are not destabilizing your budget. Choose carefully as you will be sorely disappointed if your purchase breaks down tomorrow and all these excess goods have burned a hole in your pocket.

Health

Body and energy

Focus on becoming physically stronger and more fit today. You need to strengthen your core as well as work on your stamina. You have become complacent about your exercise regimen and your fitness is deteriorating as a result. Stop making excuses for yourself and pull yourself into the gym once again. You will definitely be glad that you did.
