Aries
[ March 21 to April 20 ]

Mars-Saturn communion is holding the key. A small risk may lead to a greater success. Don’t hesitate and stick to your decision. Tuesday is your best day.

Taurus
[ April 21 to May 20 ]

The combustible Venus is causing worries about a declining relationship. Good time to make peace.

Gemini
[ May 21 to June 21 ]

The boot is still on the other foot and you will have to do what you are told. You will be pre-occupied with home and family affairs.

Cancer
[ June 22 to July 22 ]

With the lustrous moon, life seems promising at present. A close friend belonging to the opposite sex could stage a comeback.

Leo
[ July 23 to Aug 22 ]

Reposing blind faith in Virgoans and Librans can be suicidal. Dealing with Sagittarians and Pisceans will be a safe bet.

Virgo
[ Aug 23 to Sept 22 ]

Life is not a bed of roses and romance may not be fun. Keep your temper, especially at home and take care that an exchange of views does not turn into a row.

Libra
[Sept 23 to Oct 22 ]

By reposing faith in the dictum that the wise rule their stars, you can steer events to suit your needs. Don’t make rash promises.

Scorpio
[Oct 23 to Nov 22 ]

The week emphasises celebrations and entertainment. This is a sublime period to intensify love and communication with friends.

Sagittarius
[ Nov 23 to Dec 22]

Due to good luck, your current stars are calling the shots. Under the circumstances, collaboration is a necessity and not a luxury.

Capricorn
[Dec 23 to Jan 20]

You seem poised for a tempting and uplifting offer. Unless you make efforts, success could elude you. So elbow your way through difficulties.

Aquarius
[ Jan 21 to Feb 19 ]

You are passing through a dodgy phase. Be on your guard and don’t compromise your dignity. It can damage your reputation and send wrong signals.

Pisces
[Feb 20 to March 20 ]

Jupiter and Pluto could make you spend indiscriminately. Your work output could also diminish.

Born on

July 6

A year of grand success awaits you. It is an active phase when you will mean business. It is auspicious for exploring new ideas and settling controversies. It is essential to have a balance in your professional life and home affairs. Heed this advice or you may undergo some discomfort and inconvenience. You should also stay on guard against gossipmongers. The experience you gain now will make your life more fascinating and fulfilling.

July 7

If you are set on doing something, do not wait and watch. You will be able to make headway on tasks that have been lying unattended. Your partners will be glad to endorse your views. They will follow your lead and agree to your suggestions verbatim.

July 8

Imparting happiness to your family members, fulfilling social obligations and commitment to an old friend have been on your mind for sometime. Due to a weak planetary position of Mars-Saturn duo, it may not be that easy to tackle all these tasks in one go. So follow the dictum ‘slow and steady wins the race’. Tolerance in such matters is a sign of victory.

July 9

Personal expenditure, on home and social life is expected to rise beyond expectations. The success you have achieved by streamlining your finances could come to a naught. If you have sponsored some business activity, think twice before you change horses in the midstream. You have a tendency to act first and think later. This needs to be curbed. Tread with caution while handling financial matters. The period is not opportune for lending, borrowing or in the sale-purchase of stocks. Do whatever is necessary to protect your funds.

July 10

The current planetary lineup spells success, especially in financial matters. Some pleasant news, a long-awaited recreational programme and a gettogether are some of the attractions of the star-favoured period. The time to prove yourself will be from October onwards. Excessive work could, however, cause some discomfort to you during December. You should, however, stay on guard against gossipmongers during the end part.

July 11

With Venus in the house of finance, this is an ideal time to concentrate on home and family affairs. Much of your energy this week will be directed towards sorting out the problems of your close friends and relatives because only after that you can attend to your own problems. More work and less leisure is the hallmark of the new year. You will have some difficulty in persuading your friends to toe your line. The situation will take a turn for the better from October onwards when you could tackle all those who are stubborn and unrelenting.

July 12

With a Saturn associated with Mars and sighted by retrograde Uranus, you may have worries in domestic life. Give more attention to give a new thrust to your activities. Do not take an exaggerated view of your knowledge and wisdom. It is up to you to curb your impulsive habits and avoid stakes involving high bids. Don’t shy from reality and repent later.
