Overview

The main reading

You are blessed with both intelligence and common sense, but you rarely agree with the other’s point of view. The Moon in Sagittarius today, will bring to your notice how pride can result in a nasty fall. You may learn this lesson as you have a narrow escape from a frightful situation just because you did not listen to some practical advice given by a close friend. You are always so confident about your work, in it’s detailing and in your perfection of executing it, that you just cannot believe anything can go wrong. It is time you took other people’s opinion too before coming to a conclusion. Your lucky colour today is blue. Planetary movements favour you the most between 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm.
