The main reading

As Moon enters Sagittarius, the planets align themselves to bring you unexpected gains, say Astroyogi astrologers. Capricorn, haven`t you been in need of some assistance to solve a burning issue? Well, today you might find someone who is senior to you gives you some advice. Use this advice wisely and to your advantage. It will surely help your career a great deal. You may not even have sought out this advice, but it comes your way nonetheless and you find that comes in surprisingly handy. Be sure to show your gratitude to this unexpected angel! You might meet this person sometime between 4pm and 5.35pm.

Love

Romance and relationships

Today you must maintain some healthy perspective on your relationship in order to overcome some relationship hurdles. The other person is not going to be perfect all the time, and you cannot be either. Have patience today and don`t be swayed by another`s charms. When we are meeting another potential mate, we are always at our best. It`s your long-term happiness that you need to pursue.

Career

Work and ambition

It is time for you to engage yourself in some creative work to utilise your time and skills productively. It would be in your interest to accept challenges at work at this time because you are sure to thrive. The need of the hour is to ally with like-minded people to take their help in your efforts. You will see that their suggestions would be very crucial and valuable to your success.

Finance

Money and resources

Today you will find that you come into money that you didn`t expect. This may be through an inheritance or a past investment that you had made a while back. It may even that you do a bit of gambling today and you really clean up! Or you may come into an inheritance. You can expect to have a few more bucks in your pocket at the end of the day than when you started that morning.

Health

Body and energy

Don`t venture far from home as road conditions are likely to be inhospitable at this time. Heavy rainfall or other natural calamity has led to deterioration of the road conditions near you. Road conditions may also have deteriorated due to construction. Therefore, you are likely to get stuck in traffic for long hours due to these unusual conditions. It is thus advised that you try to avoid venturing too far from home today.
