Aries
[ March 21 to April 20 ]

The week has in store for you revival of an age-old relationship, an encounter with a high up and a long-awaited merry-making. Your life will gather colour with each passing day.

Taurus
[ April 21 to May 20 ]

The air is thick with gossip and rumour. You must sort out every transaction with care. Don't sign any paper unless you are convinced that it is totally risk-free.

Gemini
[ May 21 to June 21 ]

With the Mercury in a combustive posture, you can follow either your heart or your head but not both. Chances of your losing the game will increase if you become a slave of your heart.

Cancer
[ June 22 to July 22 ]

You are not likely to pay attention to your well-being. So don't involve yourself in too many activities. You should take care of your physical well-being.

Leo
[ July 23 to Aug 22 ]

A classic moment for outdoor life. If you are contemplating a holiday, time is right to take the plunge. You will feel much more enlightened and refreshed than if you remain at home.

Virgo
[ Aug 23 to Sept 22 ]

You may end the week by adding more to your coffer than you were in possession of. You could even wrap a skeptical person around your little finger. Your magic can work wonders.

Libra
[Sept 23 to Oct 22 ]

You must realise that the relationship of Venus with your sign is now at its peak. As far as your love life is concerned, you should look upon this as a never to be repeated opportunity.

Everything looks bright and sunny. Your stars are arousing your romantic feelings. If eligible and looking for a partner, you can expect some positive development soon.

Sagittarius
[ Nov 23 to Dec 22]

The retrograde Jupiter is encouraging you to fall an easy prey towards extravagance. An alarming rise in your expenditure could aggravate your finances. Thursday will be your most expensive day.

Capricorn
[Dec 23 to Jan 20]

Saturn is adding a new dimension to your already beaming celestial picture. From now on, you will be more inclined to think before you act. Confidence and courage are your best allies.

Aquarius
[ Jan 21 to Feb 19 ]

Life will be at its best, if you join hands with Virgoans at work. Librans are also worthy of your trust and there should be no hesitation in seeking favours from them.

Pisces
[Feb 20 to March 20 ]

Ambitious Pisceans should be on a strong to build their financial fortunes. They are likely to do well in investing and funding. Thursday is auspicious to gain easy money.

Born on

February 13

Your sun, with close proximity to Mercury, may incline you to see the world through other people's eyes. It also makes you dependent on the whims of your partners or allies. Considering these compulsions, it is important not to neglect your principles. It will also be a sheer waste of time, if you criticize others for not doing their best to oblige you. You may lose your cool more often during the earlier part of the year. Chaos at work can demoralise you from June onwards. You will realise the worth of hard work during the later part of the year.

February 14

With the lustrous moon on a strong wicket, you are likely to receive a pat on your back for the good work done by you. Not only your friends but even your adversaries will appreciate the qualities of your head and heart. You will keep a strict watch on your wallet during the first quarter. Buying, selling, funding and investing will occupy your attention during the second. Romantic prospects will take a turn for the better during the third. Home and family affairs, however, remain neglected during the last one.

February 15

Everything hinges on March, which at present is moving at a snail's pace. Your insistence on having your own way could be resisted with full force. Success will depend on your ability to put more sweat and toil. There is no fun in aiming at something exceptionally high. A free hand at work does not mean that you should act blindly. It will become essential to work keeping your eyes open. You will, however, usher in more spontaneity into your life during the later part.

February 16

The year spells success on all fronts. Your life will continue to gain momentum. You will consolidate your achievements and unite all the scatters threads of your life into a harmonious composite whole. The people you come across will be outgoing and generous. Your sense of humour, flexibility and proverbial hospitality will usher in pleasant changes and make your life a bed or roses.

February 17

You have perhaps seldom tasted the benefits of a benefic planet like Jupiter. Besides earning a huge amount of money, your desire to help a friend who has fallen on bad days can bear fruit without your having to expose yourself to any grave danger. In love, at work, at home or in any other crucial area, you will accept nothing less than the very best. You will opt for only what you consider the very best during May-June. You will remain overwhelmed with engagements during July. Your endeavours will be successful from September onwards.

February 18

This is a period of ups and downs. One step forward and then back to square one, is what your stars foretell. The atmosphere is likely to be thick with gossip. Hence, use the time wisely. If frustrated at work, it is better to wait and watch than to take any extreme step. The benefits due to you could be reduced during the first quarter. Don't be too hasty to make commitments during the second. Journeys at odd hours could prove cumbersome during the third. You will find good luck favouring you during the last one.

February 19

A sluggish Saturn is holding the key. You will remain overwhelmed with a number of engagements. There will be enormous pressure of work, both professional as well as personal. Messages will begin to pour in through letters and phone calls. A surprise visit and a chance encounter are also on the cards. As March gets underway, a big dose of work may await you. You will strengthen your will power, and thus be in a position to deal with various odds during the later half.
