ARIES: (Mesham): (Ashwini, Bharani and Karthigai padam) The position of the Sun ensures success in dealings with the government, gains from ancestral property, power and spiritual clarity. The Moon’s transit favours travel abroad, education, money, victory over enemies, marital harmony, confidence, happy moments in romance, decisiveness, fruitful foreign contacts and a promotion. But Ashtama Sani’s ill effects could cast a shadow on the week. The position of Venus and Mars brings luck, though, while that of Jupiter boosts financial stability. 

TAURUS: (Rishabam): (Karthigai 2nd, 3rd and 4th padams, Rohini and Mrigaseerisham 1st and 2nd padams) The mutual transit of Venus and Mars does not bode well for family relations. The Moon’s transit may result in your adopting a wrong course of action. Tardy decisions could jeopardise success in day-to-day affairs due to Saturn’s position. You may have differences with a close friend because of the Sun and Jupiter. But Kethu takes you towards a more philosophical bent of mind. Additional income is indicated too. Raghu causes sleep deprivation and dreams.

GEMINI: (Mithunam): (Mrigaseerisham 3rd and 4th padams, Arudra, Punarvasu (1st, 2nd and 3rd padams) The mutual exchange of Venus and Mars between the 5th and 6th houses means you will vanquish the negative influences around you while strengthening your friendships. Saturn’s position boosts your confidence, foiling an enemy’s interventions. The Moon’s transit provides some relief from a financial burden.

CANCER: (Kadagam): (Punarvasu 4th padam, Pushya (Poosam), Ashlesha (Aayilyam) It’s a lucky week ahead. The permutation of Mars and Jupiter brings good fortune. Financial deals work out, and there are opportunities to make money. Dealings with the government are hasslefree, people in the army and police do well. There are chances of a new relationship, a successful trip, new purchases, the resolution of disputes and gains from real estate. The Moon’s transit brings benefit and you are in a good position later in the week. Venus helps you meet children’s needs and expenses.

LEO: (Simmam): (Magham, Pooram, Uththiram 1st padam) The position of Jupiter in Leo is not favourable to family attachments and financial transactions. You may have to forego your creature comforts. There will be a hectic schedule of travel, but it does not bear much fruit. The Sun provides stability in your profession. There are four planets – namely, Mars and Venus, the Sun and Jupiter — in mutual transit over their own houses, and this brings you some unexpected good luck. Raghu might tarnish family relations, Kethu could bring some marital disharmony.

VIRGO: (Kanya): (Uththiram 2nd, 3rd and 4th padams, Hastham, Chithra 1st and 2nd padams) The movement of the Moon favours financial strength and success in your profession. The Sun and Jupiter offer a mixed bag: there will be money, but you will have to decide between what is beneficial in the long run and some immediate expenses.

Mercury brings good luck and expenses too. Raghu induces disturbed sleep and fitful dreams. You need to avoid anger and egoism.

SCORPIO: (Vrichigam): (Vishagam 4th padam, Anusham, Kettai) Saturn’s position is in the first house as Sathe Sani, which means you should take utmost care of your profession, business, money transactions and family relationships. The temporary mutual transit of Jupiter and the Sun will give you the will to take up any challenge. Mercury will further your prospects in the stock market. Mars strengthens your confidence and helps you overcome problems. Venus could dent intimacy with your spouse; he or she may be suffering from some depression.

SAGGITARIUS: (Dhanush): (Moolam, Pooradam, Uththiraadam 1st padam) The temporary mutual transit of Sun and Jupiter ensures good luck in spite of the ill effect of Sathe Sani. You could get a promotion, a transfer, unexpected financial support, a marriage proposal, a move to a house offering greater comforts, relief from sickness and more. The transit of the Moon from Chandraashtamam (first two days of the week) to the 9th and 10th houses brings good luck and fame.

Mars may make you angry and possessive of your spouse.

The mutual transit of Sun and Jupiter entails financial gains and victory over enemies. The Moon’s changing transit ensures happy occasions and monetary gain.

PISCES: (Meenam) (Poorattaadhi 4th padam, Uththirattaadhi, Revathi) The status of Jupiter and Mars, planets symbolising Raja yoga, clinch your success and prosperity. The mutual transit of Jupiter and Sun means that you will receive the support you are seeking from government officials; you exercise control over your enemies; health is good; there is financial stability and guidance from seniors in the profession. Venus causes some arguments with the spouse with ego problems arising now and again. Mercury’s position brings help and support from your spouse’s family.
