ARIES
2015 is likely to bring
you life-changing
events, and is about
what you make of them.
While situations in the
initial half of the year seem to push you
into a corner, they are actually firing you up
for competition. The Aries is a hard-working sign and will go with an obsession after
the targets set for self. Professional life
brings harder tasks. Do remember that
through all the grind, your character could
be revealed, so don’t give up. It may be
hard to please superiors or get due rewards
shortly. Let this not prevent you from building up a solid body of work. Avoid hostility
at workplace. Personal relationships need
your flexibility. Respect your partner’s
opinion and communicate your feelings
and aspirations for more bonding. Young
ones will have to put in more effort to
achieve academic goals. The keywords this
year are discipline and hard work.
CANCER
2015 ushers in money
for Cancerians.
Professional life is
extremely satisfying.
Fame and recognition for your work
expertise are close behind. There is a
desire for the acquisition of property, but it
will be favourable towards the latter half
of the year. Avoid resisting travel or decisions that indicate change, for it will block
your progress. In case you decide to
change your job or your profession altogether, burning bridges is not advisable.
Keep relationships amicable. You need to
get rid of disaster mentality when it comes
to your personal life. Excessive anxiety
may take a toll on your health. Those born
under this sun sign are known for sensitivity, and you can use empathy for greater
welfare and socially-oriented services.
LIBRA
In 2015, you experience
new technology, discipline and skill acquisition. There is indication
of a major wish fulfillment. Professional life brings fame and financial rewards. Your sphere of social influence expands. The panache and knowledge
you carry may get noticed publicly. There is
abundant support for you from your family,
especially from male siblings. Now is the
time to travel and study a new culture. In
the second half of the year, you may embrace spirituality and connect with the
masses. You could go all out to defend and
protect the rights of the marginalised.
Health improvement brings joy and there is
a greater blessing in terms of personal relationships. Some of you could be looking at
tying the knot this year. Arguments with
extended family should be avoided.
CAPRICORN
Get ready for a year
that is packed with
work. The quantum of
work assigned to you
may grow tremendously. You may be given a promotion or a raise,
but along with it comes more responsibility.
You are surely ambitious, but in this phase,
your time will be used up to plan, hire
people, raise funds and travel. Leisure and
personal time may take a backseat. Complicated property papers may cause a
problematic situation. Some of the individuals may be planning to pursue a course or
study abroad. Be careful about keeping
your financial paperwork up to date. You
don’t want a tax collector knocking on your
door. Young ones may seek you for personal advice. Do uphold the trust if someone
confides in you. Eligible individuals may
either tie the knot or get engaged this year.
TAURUS
2015 is the year of renewal and transformation for you. There is
likely to be a dawn of
new thinking and approach to life — a powerful awakening. Professional life shows
progress, but does not rule out financial
hiccups. Be careful about the money you
commit and the new people you involve in
work. Do the groundwork and background
checks, read the fine print, and maintain
detailed accounts. You may also have to
deal with expenditure related to the renovation, acquisition or construction of a
new property. On the personal front, the
year is rewarding. There is a psychological
makeover of sorts for the better. It will do
good not to be too possessive in your close
relationships. There may be an addition of
a new member to your family. Significant
trips and pilgrimages could be undertaken.
LEO
This is a good year
overall for the
individuals born under
this sign. Opportunities
arise for you to display potential and
progress at work. There could also be a
change of home or office, and a few
individuals may shift base overseas or get
transferred to another location or department. Property-related matters become a
major theme this year. Your expenditure
may skyrocket, and you will have to be
careful about spending to impress. Monetary situation improves in the second half
of the year. Personal relationships thrive.
A sense of ‘settling-in’ provides you comfort. It will help you to assess and differentiate between what is significant and what
is trivial, and have discussions accordingly. Please pay attention to your health.
SCORPIO
The Scorpio is in preparation for a big move at
work. You may have an
ambitious plan up your
sleeve. However, this juggernaut may require heavy investment.
There could be a point of contention when
you seek investors and may be asked to settle for tough terms. Do go through the terms
of contract signed carefully, and be mindful
of your commitments. Legal troubles should
be avoided as far as possible. There are quite
a few rivals who may consider taking away
your resources, so be careful. Do not reveal
your ideas to anyone before the task is accomplished. On the personal front, don’t enter a dysfunctional relationship, even after
you see red flags. You cannot blame anyone
in a relationship, or be too defensive, for that
matter. Discussing problems with a trusted
friend or a mentor will help.
AQUARIUS
2015 could be a
pathbreaking year for
you. You are influenced
by a strong, revolutionary line of thought or a
certain philosophy. There are certain
hard-hitting ideas that impress your mind
and you’ll see them as possible ways of
creating a change in the society. This
year’s theme is largely defined by the
greater common good. It is the year of
creative ideas, off-beat careers and great
innovations. Do not limit yourself by your
own complexes and restrictive thoughts.
There may be property-related matters
and those of inheritance that come up for
discussion. Agriculturalists and those
involved in the fields of architecture and
construction do well. In personal life,
marriage, formalising relationships gain
priority in the latter half of the year.
GEMINI
You should be prepared
for a lot of travel in
2015. It’s the time for
networking with likeminded folks to go after a venture that is
close to your heart. You may reach out to
people, casting a great impression through
written communication — yes, writers and
creative individuals will have an inspired
phase! There are indications of good money
flowing in this year. Those in business are
keen to spread wings overseas. You may
enter into tough negotiations, sign great
deals and strike strategic partnerships. You
are charismatic and accomplish more than
your own expectations. There will be focus
on charity work. In terms of personal life
and higher self, there is evolution. Mother’s
ill-health may cause worry. Family functions may be organised, and you will be
expected to perform your social roles.
VIRGO
The first half of 2015 is
likely to be trying than
the second half. It may
seem that there are too
many demands and too
much pressure to deal single-handedly. Moments of loneliness sprout, which leave you
feeling unsupported. However, you understand the importance of following through
with responsibilities undertaken; so, make
sure everything gets done on time. There
may be a financial squeeze as you struggle
to settle a property-related matter, foot the
medical bills and keep the home fires burning. The second half of the year brings relief
when your financial health is restored. The
year may be marked by a few travels. A
creative career opportunity may come your
way later in the year. Physical healing and
rejuvenation are on cards. This is the year of
learning to let go of mental trash.
SAGITTARIUS
The first half of 2015
seems like a favourable
phase for you. Do make
the most of it — wind up
important tasks, get
approvals, consolidate funds, close pending loans and investments etc. If you delay
this, you will have to face a tough time in
getting things done, causing you to waste a
lot of your precious time running around.
There may be religious functions or ceremonies organised at home. It will pay to be
sensitive to the feelings of others and keep
your communication clear, but soft-toned.
The year may be marked by long-distance
travels, which might mean spending some
time away from your loved ones. However,
it will be for the common good of the family. It would be wise to take care of your
health, especially if you have problems
related to the back, neck and legs.
PISCES
This year is a mixed
bag. It will do you good
to have a firm handle
over your daily affairs.
Do not leave things to
chance. Professional life registers progress,
but your gains will be in keeping with the
effort you put in. It’s time for this dreamy
water-sign individual to get down and
dirty. Avoid stock trading and
speculative markets altogether. A desire to
get rich quickly and invest in dubious
schemes may land you in trouble. So, try
and play it safe; it really helps. There may
be some issues surrounding subordinates
— hear everyone’s point of view and
resolve them with kindness and
compassion. Don’t over-analyse personal
relationships — if you choose to be there,
be there in totality. You will function better
from a place of neutrality or objectivity.
