The Tribune...Horoscope

August 29 to September 4


	Aries [March 21 to April 20]			Taurus [ April 21 to May 20 ]
	With a dignified Mars in the limelight, there is nothing you cannot achieve this week. If you don’t pursue your goal now you may never get the chance again. At home try to agree with the plans of your partner.			This is an uncertain period for most of you. You may fail to look beyond your narrow personal interests and may lose your good reputation among friends and admirers. Try to be more generous and accommodating.
	Gemini [ May 21 to June 21 ]			Cancer [ June 22 to July 22 ]
	This is a period of good news for most of you interested in sale or purchase of stocks. You are expected to act wisely and make your move when you know you cannot lose.			Don’t expect other people to see the world the way you do. There is a wide gap between reality and fantasy and it will be to your benefit if you come to terms with that fact.
	Leo [ July 23 to Aug 22 ]			Virgo [ Aug 23 to Sept 22 ]
	You stand a much better chance of earning and learning this time. It is a good time to improve your performance. Don’t draw back from taking part in discussions, debates and other intellectual pursuits.			This is the most heartening time of the year for socialising and merry-making. A modest effort on your part may be enough to attract people to you. Wednesday is a key day for achieving success.
	Libra [Sept 23 to Oct 22 ]			Scorpio [Oct 23 to Nov 22 ]
	A spell of good luck should be on its way. Besides strengthening your ties with like-minded people, you will have greater rapport with casual visitors. Flexibility, no doubt, is your main strength.			An alarming spurt in your day-to-day expenditure may aggravate your finances still further. You may be weighed down by domestic compulsions. Be prepared for a steep decline in your finances.
	Sagittarius [ Nov 23 to Dec 22]			Capricorn [Dec 23 to Jan 20]
	You may make money your top priority. While you are bent upon pushing yourself to the extreme to meet your target, you should find time to relax to avoid any health problem.			Don’t insist on being the only one who can deliver the goods. Unless you look beyond your narrow interests it may be difficult to bell the cat. Creative people and artists could, however, steal the show.
	Aquarius [ Jan 21 to Feb 19 ]			Pisces [Feb 20 to March 20 ]
	A period to be out and about more than usual. The tasks that you have already finished could need redoing. The best way to ensure success is to tackle them priority-wise and not simultaneously.			You are in a much better position to pick and choose. You could be more successful in settling financial matters, trying your luck in the sale-purchase of stocks, investments and other quick-money-earning schemes.

August 29
A dignified sun sighted by Jupiter is a sign of good luck. You will be more active in your pursuits and will establish yourself as a much-sought-after person among your friends and associates. Fresh choices will come your way but you will select the best one. In short, you can set an example of your work and behaviour that is worthy of being followed by others.

More work and less leisure is the hallmark of the new year. You have the ability to mobilise public opinion, manipulate funds and make friends who toe your line.

August 30
A moon sandwiched between Jupiter and Saturn is not going to oblige you. You will remain under the shadow of gossip and rumours most of the time. If you choose to opt for some ambitious programme, the chances of your making any headway are few.

You have reached a stage where it has become necessary to assess your past performance and learn a lesson from the events that have taken place earlier. The emphasis, however, should be on tangible gains. If you intend to opt for some quick-money-earning pursuits or stand for elections, you may have to face disappointment.

August 31
Your social stars seem fairly active. You will get along better with the people around you. You will face no difficulty in persuading other people to fall in line with your plans. It is up to you to get the best out of those you have to work with.

You will be in your element during the first quarter. Your imagination will touch new heights during the second. A sudden travel may add to your fortunes during the third. An elderly relative will require your attention during the last one.

September 1
There has never been a moment like this for spending money on your family and domestic needs. You will make it a point to discuss all important matters with your spouse. If a problem is shared it is sure to be solved.

Social commitments are likely to prove costly during the first quarter. New modes of pleasure and recreation will attract you during the second. You will improve your diet during the third. Take care not to exert yourself at the cost of your comfort during the last one.

September 2
A majority of the planets especially the benefic ones, seem committed to oblige you. You can expect the new year to shower its blessings on you and your dear and near ones. You will leave no stone unturned to make it a bed of roses.

Your financial prospects are destined to improve during the first quarter. You will consolidate every gain that you have achieved during the second. Expect plenty of fun and excitement during the third. You should not be in a hurry to make a quick buck during the last one.

September 3
With Venus in a combustive pose you will not be as alert and intuitive as you have been in the past.

Although you are equally serious in your professional life, you will have to offer incentives as well as penalties to people to get them to do as you wish. You are worried that someone is about to let you down but you will have to bear with it.

September 4
A majority of the stars are in a frivolous mood. You will have to bear a big financial burden. You may fail to live up to the expectations of your relatives. It seems somebody has already mislead you, hence you have to be extremely alert.

Financial pressures could increase dramatically after January. Sale-purchase, especially of stocks should be scrupulously avoided throughout the year. Travel stars shall also remain uncertain during the last phase.
