Overview

The main reading

Dear Leo, it’s time to organize and take control of the events, which are impinging your progress. Moon in Aries is making you feel lethargic and distracted. If you are working on any important documents such as an application for a job, school program or scholarship, take the possibility that you may miss the deadline today. You are recommended by astroYogi Astrologers to buckle up and plan a strategy to meet your goals. Do not let the little obstacles that crop up on a day like today to get in the way of your goals. Firm up a strategy to meet your goals because this is the only way forward. Lucky colour of the day is purple. Best time to take up important things is between 11:10 am and 12:00 noon.

Love

Romance and relationships

You may misunderstand your partner today and this may result in some hurt feelings all around. Listen carefully to what your partner is trying to tell you; he or she has your best interest at heart. This misunderstanding may be due to the interference of a well meaning friend. Do not pay any attention to what your friend is saying and trust your partner implicitly.

Career

Work and ambition

Today, you might find it difficult to change your job if you had hoped to do so at this time. You should keep in mind that the nearer you are to the top the harder it would be to switch careers. At the same time, it would be in your interest to consider all pros and cons before making such a move. If you are sure you are ready, simply persevere in your search and you will find what you are looking for.

Finance

Money and resources

This will be a promising day as far as the financial front is concerned. You can see some of your aspirations being fulfilled. However, you need to keep your decision-making skills strong to enhance your financial prospects. Don`t let lucrative opportunities slip through your fingers. Make sure you jump at opportunities that come your way.

Health

Body and energy

Today you will find some relief if you have been suffering back problems or hip problems lately. Some rest you took recently has helped ease the strain on the muscles and this is allowing you to feel some increased mobility and decreased pain. Continue to take it easy today and you will find that your condition steadily improves.
