TERCENTENARY CELEBRATIONS

Y O U R D A T E W I T H S T A R
June 3 to June 9

Aries
[ March 21 to April 20 ]

Mars moving at a snail’s pace does not mean that everything should work out exactly as planned. One thing, however, is pretty certain that in all personal matters, your success rate should not negate your previous estimate.

Taurus
[ April 21 to May 20 ]

It seems you are in a desperate hurry. Hold on. You may be itching to make a rash promise or a sudden emotional commitment. There is a need to enforce discipline and curb your carefree behaviour.

Gemini
[ May 21 to June 21 ]

One of the best chosen weeks for tackling domestic drawbacks or mismanagement. A majority of you may have been seized of the matter earlier also. The difference now is that you will be making amends for the mistakes you committed last time.

Cancer
[ June 22 to July 22 ]

You will make your presence felt in your social life. According to the current star position, you have good many reasons to keep yourself away from the madding crowd. The real issue is not to leak out your secrets.

Leo
[ July 23 to Aug 22 ]

A trying period for a majority of job-seeking Leos. They will tire themselves to the extreme without gaining anything concrete. In matters of heart also, the chances of any upward march are minimal.

Virgo
[ Aug 23 to Sept 22 ]

With a majority of stars on the ascendancy, you should get off to a flying start. The people you bank upon now should be thoroughly genuine and sincere. You will succeed in what you lay your hands on.

Libra
[Sept 23 to Oct 22 ]

Your planets advise you to go slow. Although you are not devoid of energy and enthusiasm and may be feeling restless also, it is better to act calmly and not to push yourself too hard.

Scorpio
[Oct 23 to Nov 22 ]

The pace of your expenditure is about to escalate and beat all previous records. You may fail to arrest the alarming trend despite your best efforts. Expect Tuesday to be your terribly expensive day.

Sagittarius
[ Nov 23 to Dec 22]

Your home and familylife should be full of joy. Your inmates may feel inclined to act more sensibly and to take a resolve not to oppose you on flimsy grounds. You will be able to satisfy them with your superior understanding.

Capricorn
[Dec 23 to Jan 20]

You will be deriving more pleasure from the social life shaping up at the moment. You will entertain your friends and take part in merry-making activities. A hilarious week to lend new charm to your personality.

Aquarius
[ Jan 21 to Feb 19 ]

An unexpected gesture of goodwill should be on the way but your friends could pin hopes on you to reciprocate. It is time to be cool and liberal. If you blow up, you will lose grace.

Pisces
[Feb 20 to March 20 ]

An upbeat week for a majority of Pisceans. They will be altering their stale life into a jubilant one. Their magic and sweet charm of winning the hearts of friends will be an instant hit.

Born on

June 3:
The year of hope and cheer. You have been pushing yourself too hard but there is no urgency to burn the midnight oil now. "Walk before you speed up" is the most relevant message for you during this year. More fun and less fatigue are likely to keep you happy and gay, let there be no doubt that you can win the favour of Lady Luck hands down.

From September onwards, your self-confidence will be riding high and you could pose a threat to all those who dare to confront you or wish ill of you. Your meticulous grasp of crucial matters will be applauded from March onwards.

June 4:
You will be entering into the new year with a broad smile. Love and cordiality of friends will cheer you up. With less burden and little worry you are in for a period of immense gratification.

Your earning capacity will be stirred up during the first quarter. You will expose yourself to new ideas during the second. A breath of fresh air is likely to revitalise your mood during the third. Undue generosity on your part is uncalled for during the last one.

June 5:
With retrograde Mars in the eighth house, life would not necessarily go your way this year. The people you live with or work with, will not see eye to eye with you. You will be accused of taking notice only of a few close to you and not bothering about others. If you are in a joint family, the worries surrounding you could torment you still more.

Your working life will need more alertness, you should be more cautious money wise. If you speculate or participate in the sale-purchase of stocks, you are not likely to fare well and may repent later on.

June 6:
A spell of good luck is on its way. Dignified Mercury in the house of finance may encourage you to supplement your income. Rarely has the house of finance shown so much of affluence and prosperity. Perhaps you have no idea of the lucky days that await you.

If you are in the run for a senior position or for an electoral seat, luck will play a key role in improving your social position and financial fortunes during February-March. You will have no regret if your expenditure shoots up during the last phase.

June 7:
You have stressed yourself beyond a limit. There is an urgent need to halt your plans that aim at adding more burden to your excessively busy life with sweat and toil consistently on the increase. There is a need to keep an eye on your health. This is the right time to plan for a break to recoup your health.

You will push yourself hard during the first quarter. Your mood could become adventurous during the second. Excessive travelling may harm you during the third.

June 8:
Venus in the house of expenditure may compel you to spend lavishly. Your craze to shop or hunt for bargains may become more acute. An unexpected demand could add fuel to fire. You may feel as if you are being exploited by your own people. Some restraint, however, seems a must to save the situation from going bad to worse.

Shortage of funds will be a major setback during the first quarter.

June 9:
A retrograde Saturn could keep you intensely absorbed in your work. With commitments mounting there is hardly any scope to put your feet up and relax. It will be ideal if you spare some time for rest and relaxation and save yourself from falling an easy prey to health hazards.

As September gets under way, your social life will brim with activity. your main goal.
