Overview

The main reading

Stable and conservative, you can be quite resistant to changes and are proud of the ideals by which you live your life. Your ego is important to you and you rarely like to change your decision, once you have made it. You feel that may make you less powerful. The Moon in Leo will lower your tolerance level today and you may be unwilling to listen to the opinions of anyone else. Maybe you are feeling boastful and have an audience who is hanging on to every word of yours. While such adulation makes you very happy, remember, being intolerant is a weakness and not a strength. Wearing burgundy red will be lucky today and the timing between 10:00 am and 11:00 am is auspicious.

Love

Romance and relationships

Choose your partner very carefully and don`t get carried away by an exciting infatuation at the expense of your long-term happiness. If you have chosen the right person for yourself then trying your best to understand your partner would cement your bond. Sharing happy moments with each other will bring both of you unlimited joy.

Career

Work and ambition

You need to be receptive to new ideas from subordinates to infuse life in the projects undertaken. Their advice works. Success on your part would benefit everyone involved immensely. It will be your willingness to step aside and let the good ideas of others come into focus that will allow your entire team to succeed today. Put your ego aside and use your best management skills today.

Finance

Money and resources

Business-wise you attract the right kind of attention easily. If you work in a business you are likely to find that today is lucrative for you. You may get a bonus or a very favourable review from your boss. Your hard work is being noticed by your superiors. Your hard work and business ethics are also being noticed by your clients and you will be receiving positive attention and recognition from many quarters. Take pride in your accomplishments.

Health

Body and energy

For some, today could be tiresome as vague pains may trouble you. However, if possible it would be in your interest to engage in a light workout to remain active. Beware that negative thinking could also exacerbate health problems. Try to maintain a positive mindset as it will actually bolster your immune system and help prevent any deterioration of your health.
