Overview

The main reading

You are intellectual and show great interest while studying a specific area, if that is of interest to you. Today’s Moon in Virgo will disappoint student Sagittarius who have appeared for exams and were awaiting results. You normally avoid taking help from others as you are confident of your abilities to master the subject on your own. Maybe you slipped here. You should have consulted some seniors or some more books and studied more thoroughly. Doesn’t matter Sagittarius. No knowledge is ever wasted and your next attempt may award you with a perfect score. Some working Archers may feel irritated with their workplace politics today. Plan or conduct anything important between 6:00 pm and 7:00 pm as it is considered auspicious, wear something in pink to attract positive vibes and good luck.

Love

Romance and relationships

Today will find you being lucky in love. You are likely to meet someone new and interesting and will see the level of romance in your life blossom. Make sure your intentions are good and that you make choices that take you in the direction of your relationship goals. You could turn this new relationship into something very special.

Career

Work and ambition

You are someone whose views have begun to be taken seriously in the management circles of your organisation. Your strength and determination have finally made an impact on the people at work. This is the time to seize the moment and put your views forth. You can persuade anyone to agree with you now. People are listening to you; what are you waiting for? You had waited for this moment to come.

Finance

Money and resources

Today guard yourself against schemes based solely on speculation. Use your common sense and hold on to your money as long as possible. Others may be trying to separate you from your hard-earned cash, but make sure you show them that you are not so quickly outsmarted. Today is a day to be fiscally conservative.

Health

Body and energy
