Born on

December 31
Thoughts of long -distance travel and adventure may dominate the scene. Your hopes are high and you will have to formulate your strategy with care and caution before taking a major leap into unfamiliar regions. Much will, however, depend on your ability to repose confidence in yourself.

Rough and tumble will puzzle you during the first quarter. Be wary of strangers and lesser known persons during the second. Get ready for on exciting social occasion during the third. Optimism seems to be your card during the last one.

January 1
As the days go by, your stars grow stronger. This is, in fact, the best time to deal with complicated issues. There are enough chances to get out and about and to seek the cooperation of new people. Money-wise also, you are approaching a period of rewards and windfalls. You will take facts into account and act accordingly. You have much to boast about but you must remember the virtues of humility. Remember that as a man of resources you are duty-bound to protect your friends and relatives who happen to be financially deficient.

January 2
You are on your way to pull out all stops and acquire financial self-sufficiency in an abundant measures. Some unexpected gains through bargains, investments and sale-purchase of stocks could start yielding rich dividends. Once you set your sight on a particular target, there will be no one to block your way.

Love, laughter and harmony will come into your life. You will be more assertive and painstaking from April onwards. You can expect to soar to unprecedented heights from July onwards. Rarely you have come across such a good year.

January 3
With Mercury in a combustive posture, you may be compelled to drop one of your favourite activities. There is no point in taking impulsive decisions and rushing through matters without weighing the pros and cons carefully. If in service, the dictatorial attitude of your boss may spoil your peace of mind. The problems you think have subsided may re surface with much greater fury.

Your travel stars look irate from the very start. April is a delightful month. A personal matter that is lagging could be pursued with much greater vigour. It is wrong to cut yourself off from the main stream.

January 4
The incoming year opens on a hectic note. Despite the stress and strain, you are likely to come under, you will remain aware of your duties, commitmens and obligations. The dark side of this scenario is that you will be working beyond your normal capacity. Since there is little hope of getting the work-load reduced, your health may suffer. The dangers of overstress and visits of people at odd hours could tell upon your health. Try to remain aloof from the madding crowd as far as possible.

January 5
Venus, the star controlling your destiny, makes you wrestle with a near-impossible task. Even in family affairs there are signs of adventure and excitement. Those who think they can take advantage of your gentleness will have to face disappointment.

The key time to prove your mettle will be between March to September. Fresh choices will come your way from mid-October onwards. The area of your influence and authority will be expanded during the last phase.

January 6
Saturn, in reverse, may find you in a sad mood. It is hard to get grip on life at the moment. What provided a ray of hope at one time is no more than a mirage now. Despite your taking full care, a big jolt to your finances could make your life miserable.

The tendency to spend excessively will gain momentum with each passing day. There is no justification to splash your funds simply to keep up appearances. It is false prestige to live beyond one’s means. The earlier it is given up the better.
