Y O U R  D A T E  W I T H  S T A R
 December 24 to December 30
Aries
[ March 21 to April 20 ]
The moment you think you need rest and a lot of leisure, you are heaped with an insurmountable work load. This type of unwanted encroachment on your person is likely to upset your mood more often.
Taurus
[ April 21 to May 20 ]
Your nomadic tendencies are increasing with each passing day. You will be happy to meet new people, explore fresh ideas and visit new places. Such interactions may add to your knowledge and wisdom.
Gemini
[ May 21 to June 21 ]
It is perhaps due to your own weakness that other people take you for a ride. It is time to reverse the trend. If you do not take firm steps, the situation may go from bad to worse.
Cancer
[ June 22 to July 22 ]
With a rapid increase in your cash flow, you may renew your interest in a project that was abandoned long ago. You may also try to rejuvenate a couple of relationships that have become stale.
Leo
[ July 23 to Aug 22 ]
A loved one who is out of sight and out of mind, could reappear all of a sudden. Love, laughter and cordiality of friends will cheer you up. Now is the right occasion to receive good news from every quarter.
Virgo
[ Aug 23 to Sept 22 ]
The period is upbeat for a majority of Virgoans. A change for the better is on the way. You will reduce your dependence on others and act freely in the areas you work in.
Libra
[Sept 23 to Oct 22 ]
Although your financial obligations are declining fast, you are not yet out of financial jeopardy. Ups and downs are part and parcel of one’s life and you, too, are not immune from this. 
Scorpio
[Oct 23 to Nov 22 ]
Hospitality, entertainment and lending a helping hand to a needy friend are on your agenda this week. Much of your energy will be directed towards goodwill missions. Tuesday is the best day for generous acts.
Sagittarius
[ Nov 23 to Dec 22]
Your stars have seldom obliged you on such a large scale. The stars governing your finances have seldom been as rewarding as they are now. In love also, you can stretch yourself more. 
Capricorn
[Dec 23 to Jan 20]
You have prepared the ground adequately and there are ample chances you could get what you want without much delay. Your stars are planning to give you a pleasant surprise which could result in changed plans.
Aquarius
[ Jan 21 to Feb 19 ]
Saturn, your lucky star, may bring a pleasant surprise to cheer you up. Aquarians, who are unattached and eligible could think of love as their first priority. So, start the week with your best foot forward.
Pisces
[Feb 20 to March 20 ]
Your stars are waging a tough war against your financial fortunes. The harder you try to mend your financial situation, the worse it will become. Thursday happens to be an ill-starred day for buying or selling.


Born on

December 24
With sun and Mercury locked together, you are being urged to tread very carefully in your relationships. It is the right time to win back people who have not been given a fair deal in the past. This is a good time for healing old emotional wounds. Those who are giving vent to their angry feelings stand in need of some conciliatory treatment.

You should accept some blame for not taking enough care in the past. The sooner you realise this the sooner you will find opportunities for spreading goodwill and adopting a generous outlook towards people who feel aggrieved.

December 25
Moon, at the moment, seems a liability. She is surrounded by evil stars. A financial crisis, hopefully a brief one, is about to flare up. You will be get meagre support from the people around you. If people you work with are rigid and uncompromising, don’t panic, as this is only a temporary phase.

Sit back and bide your time during the first quarter. Share your problems with your well-wishers during the second. Undue generosity is your weak point during the third. You should, however, avoid exerting yourself beyond a limit during the last one.

December 26
It seems that you are riding on a lucky wave. With an increase in your earnings, the over-all situation promises to be smoother this time. With your exceptional skill and expertise, you will be considered a star performer in your working life. You will opt only for what you are good at.

You will receive a pat on your back during the first quarter. Expect a minor windfall during the second. A long and rewarding journey shall be on the cards during the third. There is, however, a dire need to safeguard your funds.

December 27
Rarely have your stars shown so much magnanimity in the past few years. You may find it difficult to comprehend the magnitude of the fortune about to befall you. Your stars advise you to take full advantage of the bounties that lady luck is about to shower on you. You will fascinate your loved ones with your charm and dignity.

You will not stick to routine chores and may conduct yourself in a most impressive and upright manner. Since the strength of your character lies on your will-power and discipline, you will not allow petty matters to upset you.

December 28
There is so much planetary activity around your sign that it will become difficult to distinguish between what is important and what deserves to be ignored. It is, therefore, a period when more thought and contemplation becomes necessary. You will have to apply your mind more attentively so that nothing is left to chance.

There is a need to add some charm to your life. All work and no play is likely to wear you out. You must put the pep back into your life. You should, however, remain less involved in ‘do it yourself jobs’ this year.

December 29
With your benefic stars not so favourably inclined towards, you, anyone you live with or work with could pose problems in one form or another. You should avoid making new friends or expanding the area of your social life. It is better if you concentrate on bridging the gulf that was developed in your relationships if and when needed. You may have to face pressure from a friend whose opinions you don’t generally appreciate.

Someone you have been angry with, seems anxious for a patch-up but be may be too snobbish to accept a mistake. It will be more praiseworthy, if you take the lead.

December 30
The stars governing your finances are in a frivolous mood. Expenditure on home, family and on your person is going to escalate in leaps and bounds and you may not be able to count on the generosity of elders. You could however, think of consulting your bank manager, insurance agent, or any other financial wizard to see if anyone of them could render some help.

If you are in service, there is a possibility of a senior associate retiring or moving out to new location which might create an opening for you to improve your career prospects.
