This month has lot of astrological significance: We see planet Saturn, which has been retrograde for a very long time, change direction. Jupiter, the planet of expansion and knowledge, gathers strength as it moves away from Rahu and enters Virgo. Sun transit in Leo is likely to bestow fame and financial gains, however the desire for perfection in everything, could make you critical and highly demanding. Chances of success in your ventures are extremely high. Even the little efforts that you put forth during this period have potential to bring you enormous benefits.


Aries (March 21 to April 19)


With sign lord Mars in the 8th house and conjoined with Saturn, it is time for you to understand that when you get upset over trivial issues, not only your mind but also your body is adversely affected. This month, cultivate a generous attitude towards life to make it easy for you as well as for others. If you modify your lifestyle you’ll find immediate relief; you’ll be relieved from prolonged tension and strains of life but, and your zest for life will increase. This month, you’ll deal with some tricky situations at work. In this case, avoid counsel from friends or colleagues, and face this on your own. Try to remain neutral so as not to aggravate the situation for others. You’ll benefit from not taking any of this personally but approaching it with measured judgment.

This August sign lord Venus is conjoined with Mercury and functional malefic Jupiter and Rahu most of the month. In this month, you will deal with some health issues. You will have to reschedule your daily routine to give your body the much-needed rest and attention it needs to recharge. Engage yourself in some creative work to divert your attention away from your daily chores. Persons who are already suffering from any ailments will be able to fully recover if they take proper medication. This is the perfect time for you to make exercise a part of your daily routine to reap its long term benefits. Professionally, you will be entrusted with some additional responsibilities especially in the middle of the month. You should therefore put in your fullest efforts and if possible take the assistance of your subordinates to enable you to complete the work. Success on your part would not only give an edge over competitors but also pave the way for career enhancement. This seems to be a good period for romance, as love sails into your life at this special time. Don’t expect much from the relationship, but one thing is sure: these experiences will give you some short but sweet memories that you can cherish all your life.

Gemini (May 21 to June 20)


As sign lord Mercury is conjoined with Rahu and Venus and planet Mars and Saturn transit your 6th house, you have to be very careful in your romantic affairs especially in the beginning of the month because there are chances that your rude behavior could create some rifts in the relationship. It will require a desperate and timely action on your part to control the situation. One thing you should always keep in mind is that even though love is a matter of the heart, it requires you to tame your arrogance. Also professional setbacks seem to come your way as you fail in achieving your targets because of your wrong assessment of your team members. With malefic influence on Mercury being strong, it is important to shed the negativity that could grip you. Remember that a pessimistic attitude will only retard your progress and put your valuable energy down the drain. Therefore keep a positive attitude to enable yourself to enjoy the beauties of life. Keep your poise and engage yourself in some creative work to divert your attention.

This month with New Moon happening in your sign, it is certainly going to be a challenging month ahead. Important project and finances could get delayed. You are likely to be criticized for your carelessness on the professional front. You will find your colleagues and especially seniors complaining to you about this. It could even dampen your career prospects. It would therefore be in your best interest to desert your typical laid-back attitude. You should keep in mind that only sincere efforts will help you in your career. This period is good on the relationship front, you are likely to meet a person after the 15th who could uplift your mood and in whose company the world appears rosy and full of possibility. His/her company will enable you to enjoy the wonder of love as you get a first-hand-experience of what true love is all about.

Leo (July 23 to Aug 22)


This month with Sun transiting into Leo, your financial position will improve as you get some unexpected monetary gains either from foreign transaction or major government contracts. But at the same time you should avoid the stock market and keep in mind that losses can be there if you do not look at investment from all angles. Only thing needed on your part is to invest wisely after careful thinking. Your tendency to easily influence through persuasion and pressure is likely to come as blessing in disguise as you join some spirited people in work. Their enthusiasm and team spirit coupled with your determination and courage is likely to bring some excellent results for you. With Rahu still in the first house and Jupiter transits into Virgo, your hectic lifestyle will make you vulnerable to sickness this month. It would be in your interest to modify your eating habits and alter your lifestyle choices to enable yourself to enjoy a sound health. You should give way to whole-grain products and vegetables instead of mineral-deficient food. Further, make exercise an important part of your daily routine and take time out of your busy schedule for recreational activities. You will also be highly benefited if you desert your negative thinking and pave way for positive thinking in your life.

Virgo (August 24 to September 22)


This August Sun and Rahu will be conjoined in the 12th house and therefore despite benevolent Jupiter transiting into Virgo on 11th August, professionally you could face many challenges. Your dedication and sincerity will be of little value at professional front as you fail to translate your ideas into reality. It is time for you to realize that only good theoretical knowledge of a subject is not sufficient but you should be able to translate it into reality. You should therefore  strive to bring your theories into tangible fruition. At the same time, continue your efforts to improve your knowledge base with practicality. If you are planning to join some career enhancement course it is very good time to opt from higher education. But at the same time develop your social skills and team spirit to bring success. This is a great period for romance, as once in a while someone comes along—someone who just naturally makes everyone feel a little happier and more alive. You are going to experience this kind of feelings this month as you meet your beloved. You should be ready to share your love and feelings now and forever.

Libra (September 23 to October 22)


This month with moon in your 10th house of profession, plenty of good opportunities are likely to come your way. You need to plan your actions well in advance if you want to benefit from them. Don’t let these opportunities slip from your hands. Remember, a once lost opportunity rarely comes back. Saturn and Mars in the 2nd house indicate fluctuating financial conditions; however your romantic phase remains active this month. But be careful because your beloved could indulge in deception or you might just drift apart if you are rude or insensitive in any way. It would be better if you don’t let this put you off , but rather keep your options open because there’s a very slim chance that this might actually work out for the better later. Health will remain fine despite a busy schedule throughout the month. However it will be in your interest not to take it for granted. In case of tiredness, treat yourself to a massage. It will be worth it. To bring mental relief, do some mental exercise by reading something interesting, solving crosswords or a tricky problem. Success on your part would enable to easily cope up with the hectic schedule without any discomfort.

It’s a very auspicious time to bring important changes by adopting a new and more balanced attitude in your life. You must now cut yourself away from old ideas and beliefs that have outlived their purpose. A simple effort on your part is needed to break old habits/patterns. But at the same time you must avoid rash decisions. You must balance thoughtful decision making with acting quickly. Health issues could be bothersome for some; however after 15th keeping a positive outlook towards life will give the much-needed tonic to your health. But it will require a forceful, aggressive and passionate approach on your part to remove all the obstacles coming in the way of your enjoying a sound health.

Sagittarius (November 22 to December 21)


This August financial gains are expected from least expected sources, lifting your confidence and spirits. As sign lord Jupiter moves away from Rahu and enters Virgo, there will be an important development on the professional front, which would give a major boost to your career, but to take the maximum benefit you should also involve yourself into learning some new skills and techniques. Jupiter is the planet for knowledge and wisdom and as it gains strength it supports you on the education front as it moves ahead. You should consult a career coach or a counselor and seek various ways to shine at work. Children would cause some problems. It would be wise to tackle them with love and tact. You will be an honest and a sincere friend and will possess a compassion and understanding that will do miracles for people who are facing emotional pain and depression. You will also be strongly attracted towards spirituality and religious activities.

Capricorn (December 22 to January 19)


This month with sign lord in the house of gains and conjoined with planet of energy Mars, you could receive some unexpected good news. Also as the full moon happens in your sign, you are likely to receive recognition and laurels for your past work.

Not a good period for legal issues and therefore you need to be careful when you sign any contracts. A better understanding with your spouse ensures happiness, peace and prosperity at home. A budding romance is on the horizon for some of you. Take rest in between work and ask your family members to share your workload. You will get what you want provided you are diplomatic and able to handle any given situation to your advantage. Although this overall period is good and productive, but hasty investment should be avoided as it would bring only losses.
