Overview

The main reading

Dear Libra, Moon’s presence in Libra may make you feel mentally drained today with so much going around. People love your company because you are cheerful and you have the ability to strike interesting conversations. However, with a lot of things on your plate, you may have the tendency to lose your cool. Getting too personal will only make things seem worse than they already are, suggest Astroyogi astrologers. Be patient and let things be for the time being as this is just a temporary phase which will be over soon. Your luckiest hour of the day is between 12 pm to 2:30 pm, so plan anything important within this time period. Pink will be your lucky color for the day.
