Born on

A weak sun at the helm is a major setback. Hurdles, delays and setbacks could hamper your progress. It is not the right occasion to start any new ventures. Tried and trusted ways should be opted for and that too with the utmost care and caution.

As March gets underway, heavy expenditure will pose serious problems. You are likely to be misled by all those who have remained in your good books. It will be wrong on your part to criticise others for not doing their best to oblige you.

The Moon-Jupiter visual-alliance makes the new year a promising one. The emphasis will lie on celebrations, enjoyable journeys and merry-making activities. You will make full use of the opportunities that come your way. If you choose your line of action wisely it will help you to save energy and feel relaxed.

There is no need to burn the midnight oil to come into the limelight. Your stars advise you not to push yourself too hard. You should pay more attention to your health and general fitness. Leave other people in no doubt that you are their best hope.

Mars in the house of expenditure will exhaust your funds. Excessive work aimed at improving your financial fortunes may fail to mitigate your financial situation. You will have yourself to blame if you splurge your funds thoughtlessly.

The time to act prudently and keep a strict control over your purse-strings will be from January onwards. Think twice before lending money to someone during May-June. The benefits due to you may not reach you during August-September. You will, however, find good luck descending on you all of a sudden during the last phase.

By and large, your planets appear to be strong and well-positioned. You should be heading towards a period of glittering success. More fun and practically no worry will keep you in a good mood. This is also a lucky phase for all those who are interested in politics.

You would like to act ambitiously during the first quarter. Socialising should be at the top of your agenda during the second. Your reputation as a sincere friend will be hailed during the third. Expect a pleasant happening at home during the last one.

Love, affection and regards for your friends, relations and all those you have a soft corner for will occupy your thoughts and dictate your actions. The way you conduct yourself while dealing with them will convince them that you are their best hope and as such you deserve their support.

Your hospitable and friendly nature will prove an asset during March-April. Life must go your way during June-July. You will have time for yourself during September-October. Family functions will lighten your mood during the last phase.

A year of mixed trends awaits you. Even so, the positive trends outweigh the negative ones. At times, especially in the beginning of the year, you may feel that you are treading an unfamiliar path. But after a few days the dust will settle and you will realise that you are very much in control of your life. The only drawback which may irk you is the unreasonable demand of your friends and relatives which should be resisted at all costs. They can however, be brought round sooner or later.

With Saturn on the backtrack, you may feel a little weighed down due to the paucity of funds and a variety of commitments. People you are likely to deal with are in no mood to oblige you, even your efforts at good will may fail to soften them. Tie up all loose ends during the first quarter. It will be ideal to keep a strict watch over your finances during the second. You will have to blame yourself if you are not frugal during the third. You can expect a loved one to come to your aid during the last one.
