Overview

The main reading

The Moon in Scorpio could bring some discord in your relationship with your partner or other relatives today. You may feel that they are trying to control you or your relations with other people. You have always been affectionate with your friends and loved ones and you do not want someone to dictate your life for you and decide your friends for you. Maybe you are simply being sensitive about this and it may just be your interpretation of their behaviour. Is your partner or that relative feeling insecure about their relationship with you, since this sort of behaviour normally stems from feeling left out? Lucky colour for you today is light green. Time between 9:10 am and 10:10 am is favouring you the most.

Love

Romance and relationships

If you are single you may stumble upon romance in the unlikeliest of places, perhaps even a wrongly dialled number! This will be a flirtation at best and nothing more serious. However, it doesn`t mean you can`t enjoy it while it lasts!

Career

Work and ambition

Your career will look up today, filling you with a sense of pride and enthusiasm. You are in a very good place right now where your career is concerned. Use this period to your advantage and you will see your career grow. This positive development will make you feel like taking the bull by the horns when it comes to your work all obstacles will seem to vanish in front of you. Way to go!

Finance

Money and resources

Today is an acceptable day to begin a new venture, but ventures started today will likely be slow to turn a profit. You need to chart out a plan for success carefully. Your progress towards success would be steady and in the right direction, but would not be quick. If you are willing to put in the time and effort to grow your business over the long term, then today is your day to get started.

Health

Body and energy

Problems associated with digestion are indicated today. If you have been under an elevated amount of stress lately then do watch what you eat so that your digestion problems are not exacerbated. Eat light and eat healthy food today and you may escape stomach upset. Avoid alcoholic beverages today.
