March 25 to March 31

Aries
[ March 21 to April 20 ]

A delightful period for travel and outdoor activities. You should visit a new place to broaden your horizons. It will augur well for your social and romantic aspirations.

Taurus
[ April 21 to May 20 ]

A retrograde Venus is pushing through an extravagant sector of your chart. It means you will spend more and save little for the rainy day. If you cannot do what you want, it is for your good.

Gemini
[ May 21 to June 21 ]

Your stars are gaining strength with each passing day. Much of what happens now will depend on your ability to believe in yourself. Get on with people, make them feel good and they will like you.

Cancer
[ June 22 to July 22 ]

The workload that has been giving you anxious moments is about to be reduced. The time has arrived when you can put your feet up and relax. A romantic ambition comes closer to its fulfilment.

Leo
[ July 23 to Aug 22 ]

If you are gearing yourself up to undertake a Herculean task, you should think twice before jumping to it. Besides risking your hard-earned money, you will also be playing with your health.

Virgo
[ Aug 23 to Sept 22 ]

Your social life is brimming with joy. The people you meet now will be genuine and sincere. It is now up to you to grasp the opportunity to derive the maximum benefit from them.

Libra
[Sept 23 to Oct 22 ]

Your keen resolve to balance your finances may lead you nowhere. You will prefer luxuries over necessities. Your anxiety to help a friend in need could also prove counter-productive.

Scorpio
[Oct 23 to Nov 22 ]

Financial matters are fairly stable now. There is no doubt that you will benefit from your efforts. Tuesday could be a good day to settle financial deals.

Sagittarius
[ Nov 23 to Dec 22]

Your stars are compelling you to be out and about more than usual. Try to opt for short trips rather than for long ones. While on a journey your main concern should be comfort and not the cost.

Capricorn
[Dec 23 to Jan 20]

The emphasis lies on entertainment and family gatherings. A memorable week for love and laughter. While on a shopping spree, you will prefer luxuries over necessities.

Aquarius
[ Jan 21 to Feb 19 ]

You are passing through a potentially prosperous phase. The best advice is to press on with your own plans irrespective of what your friends say. Saturday is your most lively day.

Pisces
[Feb 20 to March 20 ]

An ideal time to make big strides at work. Much to your surprise, a dream is expected to come true. The fact that you have so much on your plate should not stop you from adding more to your coffers.

Born on

March 25
Your hopes are high and may go still higher with the passage of time. There should be no dearth of opportunities but it will be difficult to decide which one is the best. You are in the habit of putting too many irons in the fire and if you continue doing this the benefits you are expecting may not materialise.

May-June are cherished months for socialising. If you are in business, you will be walking on a tight rope. If you are in service, get ready for recognition. Your health could, however, bother you from January onwards.

March 26
Life is busy and is likely to get busier still in the near future. You must vow to act only in a calm, easy and dispassionate way. Don’t encourage friends to meddle in your affairs.

Shyness is your main drawback. If you are running for an election, luck is not going to oblige you. You will, however, find the going smooth after November. All you require is a little more insight into what is really bothering you.

March 27
A period of hope and cheer. Celebrate one pleasant occasion and get ready for the next one. A dignified Mars may make you turn your attention towards friends. There are challenges, no doubt, but the returns that are expected to follow will far exceed your expectations.

A worthwhile opportunity will come your way after July. Travel plans, though exciting, still need reconsideration. A flexible attitude is the need of the hour. Ambitious plans, should, however, be kept under wraps for some more time.

March 28
The winds of change have started to blow. You can take the initiative and proceed. The planets responsible for the qualities of your head and heart are very much on your side. If the present developments are any indication, it is crystal clear that you have won half the battle. May-June are hectic months. Your income will set a new record during September-October. Your keen desire to move with the times will be an asset during November-December. The existing dose of work should be quite enough to keep you on your feet during the end part.

March 29
Your financial problems are about to be over. You will try to make the best use of your income and could meet your requirements quite easily. You will remain more concerned about future obligations but your spirits will be high. You will be brimming with self-confidence and optimism.

The work may pile up and tire you during June-July. You could be exceedingly assertive during September-October. A new relationship could be formed during January. Don’t exert beyond a limit during the end part.

March 30
With Venus on the backtrack you are heading towards a high-spending phase. The unreasonable demands of those close to you may add fuel to the fire. There are chances you may be tempted to indulge in a bad bargain. In short, whatever you do, the result will be negative. All you have to do is to tighten your purse strings and wait for an opportunity to come out of a financial muddle. A slight improvement, however, is discernible after December.

March 31
You are heading towards a good period — socially, economically and academically. Your life will be full of joy, mirth and recreation. You seem well set to win over the people you come into contact with. If you are employed you can expect some change in the nature of your work. It is likely to be less taxing and less burdensome. You will be in a much better position to prove your worth. Try to balance your personal and professional lives.
