Born on

April 11

The year shows mixed trends. Events rarely happen according to your will. This year will see you working hard. Simply scoffing at routine with lead you nowhere.

Your stars advise you not to associate with persons of a dubious reputation. You should establish your reputation as a person of strong will and determination. You should also take care of your physical well-being. It will be in your interest to see that you remain fit and fine. Also, do spare some time for relaxation.

April 12

Moon seated in the 10th house of your chart indicates an increase in your mobility. In spite of a busy time, you will remain at peace with yourself. You are, however, advised not to push yourself too hard. Instead of wasting your energy on trivial matters, you should use it to meet important obligations.

The earlier part of the year is more hectic than the later half. During July-August the emphasis will be on gains. Avoid travelling at late hours, especially during November-December. You can expect success during the end part.

April 13

A period of uneasy calm. Rising expenditure and the resulting discontent is likely to upset you. You should keep a strict watch over your finances. There are a few responsibilities weighing on your mind and you have no option other than to shoulder them. Remember to exercise caution at all times. Take care not to be too generous to someone or to lend money to an undeserving friend.

April 14

This is a good time to put your views across. You can win over others, especially your adversaries, with your strong arguments. Mercury, your ruling star, has some more surprises in store for you. There should be no hindrance in persuading others to agree with you. You will become more mature, reasonable and acceptable to the people you deal with or work with.

Do not feel upset if your social life becomes a drain on your purse.

April 15

Most persons born on this date will be feeling dazed and confused. Their central beliefs will be shaken. They should endeavour to keep abreast of the latest developments.

If they hope to change careers, they might face disappointment. They should listen carefully to their elders even if what they say is not too palatable. They should also not be rigid and uncompromising.

April 16

You are the crest of a delightful wave. Good times come only once in a while. Companions, friends and associates will repose full confidence in you. Your social life will brim with love, laughter and joy.

If you are chasing a lost love, luck shall favour you. You will remain more interested in goodwill missions than in worldly matters.

April 17

The planetary picture is taking a turn for the better. Your stars foretell selfless trends and you will be cooperative and supportive towards your friends and relatives. You may also be able to communicate your deepest feelings to others.

You will establish contacts with people you have not seen before. Don’t feel demoralised if your social life proves a drain on your purse. Your urge to stretch yourself beyond a certain limit is your weakness. It is time to be choosy and selective when considering career options.
