Overview

The main reading

You are a great person to work with - devoted, tireless and serious about the task at hand. You go with the flow and do not create unnecessary conflicts. Getting into the ‘politics’ of any situation can just lead to ruining your peace of mind; so you prefer staying away from it. You place your trust in God, above everything else. The Moon in Virgo today, may make you feel defeated by opponents at the workplace. This will play on your mind as you can be quite sensitive. You may feel disappointed to the point of even questioning your belief in God/karma. Schedule important meetings and other important activities between 9:00 am and 10:30 am for better results. Blue is your lucky color for today.

Love

Romance and relationships

Today you will find there are small, brief periods of excitement in your romantic life. You are likely to have a flirtatious encounter with someone in a social situation, or in a situation in which you weren`t even looking for anyone. This could be a friend of a friend or even an accidental meeting with someone you knew long ago. Just enjoy it for the moment it lasts.

Career

Work and ambition

Brilliant break-throughs are around the corner but the desire to suddenly turn your life in a totally new direction should be tempered with a strong dose of common sense. It`s natural to be excited, restless and ready to move into a world of ideas and experiences you`ve never seen before, but the unexpected inspiration can disappear as quickly as it came if you act without proper preparation.

Finance

Money and resources

Some financial worries have been on your mind recently, but you can ease your troubled mind today. Some sudden losses can be recouped in the short term and some will take a bit longer. Overall, you are on the track to financial security. You may even find that your financial fortunes take a turn for the better today, so take advantage of this rise in monetary inflow and make investments.

Health

Body and energy

Today try to understand the root of any physical problems you are having and seek out a qualified medical professional if necessary. Over-the-counter medications can only take you so far in terms of treating your illness instead of just treating the symptoms. Try to root ailments out from their source or else you will find they keep recurring.
