June 1 to June 7

Aries
[ March 21 to April 20 ]

That you are not earning enough money to make both ends meet is an under-statement. By the end of the week you are sure to realise that you are in for a fortunate spell. Things will start looking up then.

Taurus
[ April 21 to May 20 ]

Your powers of persuasion know no bounds. You may doubt your skills but you can negotiate your way out of the tightest corner. Even the most difficult person will be like putty in your hands.

Gemini
[ May 21 to June 21 ]

Mercury, the planet of communication, aligns itself with a benevolent region of your chart. It is a good time to heal a rift with an old friend and get closer to people who deserve your love.

Cancer
[ June 22 to July 22 ]

Your home and family life seem riddled with complications and contradictions. Now is the time to see the world beyond the four walls of your home.

Leo
[ July 23 to Aug 22 ]

Everything looks bright and sunny for you. There is virtually nothing that can go wrong this week. In the property market, too, you are in for a spell of good luck, perhaps a chance to make a new beginning.

Virgo
[ Aug 23 to Sept 22 ]

The only dark cloud on the horizon that upsets you is an unprecedented increase in your expenditure. You will be feeling too dazed and confused to be able to adjust to changed circumstances.

Libra
[Sept 23 to Oct 22 ]

A special time indeed, for love, laughter and merry-making. Besides strengthening ties with loved ones, you will also try to become more informal with your casual acquaintances.

Scorpio
[Oct 23 to Nov 22 ]

Your wisdom and foresight not-withstanding, you need to play your cards with more skill and hold on to the rewards that you have won. This is bound to call for some extra effort on your part.

Sagittarius
[ Nov 23 to Dec 22]

An exalted Jupiter is all set to bring out the adventurous streak in you. The incoming week is full of challenges and rewards. A heart warming news from a far-off place could bring a smile on your lips.

Capricorn
[Dec 23 to Jan 20]

It is sometimes annoying that people with whom you are closely linked change their minds or go back on their commitments. You have to allow them flexibility and be a little more tolerant.

Aquarius
[ Jan 21 to Feb 19 ]

Now that you have all the information you need at your fingertips, you can afford to go ahead professionally, socially and even on some other counts as well. You are advised to keep an eye on your target.

Pisces
[Feb 20 to March 20 ]

Your travel stars are brighter than ever before. It is an ideal time to plan a holiday. You will be meeting people with exceptional qualities and could stand to benefit from them.

Born on

June 1
A trio comprised of sun, moon and Rahu could prompt you to opt for a risky venture. Any plan that is made without analysing the pros and cons can backfire. Your grasp of facts could also falter. You are advised extreme caution to avoid mistakes.
Remember, that incomplete knowledge can be dangerous. If you think you are on a slippery ground it is better to seek expert advice. Your stars advise you to be optimistic.

June 2
A Taurean moon heading towards the house of finance is a clear indication of an improvement in your financial fortunes. People who have been underestimating you will have to revise their opinion. The reputation you build up now will push you towards achievements and honours in the near future.
Your earning capacity is likely to increase during the first quarter. A legal battle could be won without much trouble during the second. A breath of fresh air will revitalise you during the third. Excessive travel could, however, dampen your spirits during the last one.

June 3
An exalted Mars is lending full support to you. You will receive appreciation for your achievements. You will soon be hitting a social high. The contacts you develop now can prove a shot in your arm. Don’t let friends and loved ones sway you from the path you have chosen for yourself.
Your life remains full of mirth during the first quarter. Your craze for adventure may increase during the second. You could win laurels at work without putting in extra effort during the third. Undue generosity on your part needs to be curbed during the last one.

June 4
With Mercury in the house of expenditure, you have long been denied the rewards you deserve. It seems your insistence on having your own way could wear down. You will succeed only partially in your endeavours. It is, however, advisable to free yourself from bad habits and negative feelings. You may repent if you put many irons in the fire. If in service, extreme care is a must to handle secret information. Try to minimise professional strain in the interest of your health. You will also do well to remember, that self praise is no recommendation.

June 5
This year you will need more money to make your life bubble with joy and ecstasy. You will become more comfort-loving and easy going. Demands made by people close to you from time to time will be quite reasonable and as such your bank balance will remain as sound as ever. A modest effort on your part is not enough to achieve what you aim at. If you are in love, a clear-headed approach to win the person of your dreams will be most essential to save yourself from rejection and tears later on.

June 6
A well-starred period for aiming at new targets. Your balanced and skilful handling of matters connected with your profession will add to your reputation. You will continue to remain in a placid and happy frame of mind. Your stars, however, lay emphasis on ethical, moral and spiritual matters. If romance is on your mind, it should be kept pending for some time. Make sure that you don’t compromise on your honour.

June 7
More energy, enthusiasm, spontaneity and attention will be needed to give a new thrust to your professional life. A majority of planets seem to be favouring you at this moment but this does not mean that you can get everything on a platter. You will have to bide your time a little longer. “Slow and steady wins the race” is an old proverb which seems to be appropriate in your case. Time is not far off when all the hurdles in your way will vanish.
