About GaneshaSpeaks.com
Initated in the year 2003 with a defnitve vision, the website and the
Astrology services provider www.GaneshaSpeaks.com is a pioneer in more
than one ways. When a young engineer from Gujarat, Hemang Arunbhai
Pandit, started the web-portal with a few trusted aides by his side, some

GaneshaSpeaks.com |

hard-earned capital and a small ofce, there was nothing much to write
home about. E-commerce space was yet in its infancy, and the examples to
follow were far and few at least in the Indian context and in the niche feld
of Astrology. But, by the grace of God and thanks to the constant hard (and
smart) work, GaneshaSpeaks.com is now a market leader in its feld.
The aim and vision from the day one was to streamline a scatered,
directon-less Astrology market. A wide gap existed between the serious
customer and a genuine astrologer. And, that is what GaneshaSpeaks.com
aimed to fll. E-space and telecommunicatons seemed the most viable and
progressive media to take the frst giant step aimed at bringing some
structure and professionalism - to this largely unstructured market. It made
sense, because people from all over the world could connect with each
other and their preferred astrologers and astrology services, via the
wonders of technology.
Today, GaneshaSpeaks.com is the Number One Astrology services provider
in India. It is also the Number Three Astrology portal in the world. Given its
reliable, top-of-the-line content and services and a strong team of over 400
astrologers, there's no wonder that the web-portal now receives over 35
lakhs or 3.5 million visitors every month. Its latest web-interface and novel
concepts have even caught the eye of many a sceptc!
Already successful in making its presence felt on various platorms,
including mobile telephony, SMS, WAP, online services, personal
consultancy, GaneshaSpeaks.com leaves no stone unturned in making its
services accessible to its patrons. Its exclusive Astrology consultaton
telephone short code 55181, now quite popular, is used to provide voicebased personalised astrology services, and is available with almost all
cellular operators across India. With round-the-clock personal consultancy
services and on-phone services available in more than 10 Indian languages
and English, Ganeshaspeaks.com, undeniably, has a hand on the pulse of its
visitors and followers. Ganeshaspeaks.com also has forayed into the world
of internet radio by launching the world's frst astrology internet radio
website www.astrology.fm
Ofcially proclaimed as the successor of the revered and world-renowned
astrologer Shri Bejan Daruwalla, the astute team of astrologers at
GaneshaSpeaks.com has been personally nurtured and trained by Mr.
Daruwalla. No wonder that astrological predictons and analyses by GS bear
an accuracy rate of over 85% to 90%. The Team's achievements in predictng
events correctly in almost all areas of public, natonal and internatonal
interest are too many to be put in words here. However, it would be best to
reiterate that it is their constant endeavour to keep bringing these
predictons, analyses and deductons via their Predictons Secton on the
website or channel partnerships or through their specifc products/services
like Fortune Mantra (meant for stock markets' predictons).
With this book, fourth in the line of Yearly Predictons Books,
GaneshaSpeaks.com hopes to add another feather to its illustrious line of

work, and to bring to its readers and patrons accurate, reliable and
interestng material that will work as a ready reference for them for the
year 2015, and shall also bring them interestng insights on Zodiac Signs.
Happy Reading!

Foreword
Welcome to the intriguing and bewitching world of Astrology, the powerful,
predictve subject that has caught atenton of many a non-believer across
the world, for ages.
Unearthing the hidden knowledge of self, the world and the universe has
been an eternal quest of human beings. The curiosity to know what the
future beholds, and the undying urge to be able to capture the future has
always been a driving force behind the evoluton, innovaton, inventon, the
struggle for existence and overall human development.
Probably that's why we have always been scampering to get a slice of future,
and thence, the eternal popularity of astrology and other predictve
subjects. If nothing else, this knowledge makes us feel 'in-control'! Astrology
is one of the keys to this knowledge of the self and of the future. How
successful or unsuccessful it tends to be is a diferent debate, altogether.
But, going by the huge number of its followers and believers, astrology
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

surely looks a potent area.


For years altogether, planetary movements and interactons of various
heavenly bodies have fascinated the best of the minds. And, this very study
of the celestal bodies the Sun, the Moon and the planets and their
positons in relaton to the human life and afairs has come to be known as
astrology. The science or, as sceptcs would call it, the subject of astrology is
as vast as the Universe itself. The permutatons, combinatons, integraton
and many other principles of Mathematcs have been employed to study,
understand and decipher the fundamentals of astrology.
Usually an astrologer will draw up a horoscope of a person with the help of
his/her birth data date, tme and place of birth and then sync it with the
positons of the celestal bodies at that tme to determine the fate and
future of the person, his personal qualites, his natural gifs, and almost
every aspect of his life, short-term or long-term prospects of his educaton,
health, love life, fnances etc.
There are various systems and ways in which astrology has been practsed
and understood. However, two major and most accepted systems of
astrology followed across the world are Eastern Astrology System (beter
known as Indian or Vedic astrology) and Western Astrology System. Also
called as the Niryana (Indian/ Eastern) system and Sayana (Western) system
of Astrology, both of these are reliable and relevant in their own ways. But,
they have basic diferences in the way calculatons are made and
interpreted. Western astrology is more popular and thus, has more amount
of published literature.
Broadly speaking, the Western or Sayana Astrology founds its basic
principles on the Solar Horoscope and hence, the Sun Signs (largely based on
one's Date of Birth). On the other hand, the Eastern/ Vedic Astrology is
based largely on the Moon Signs. Owing to the popularity of Western
astrology and ease of identfying Sun Signs due to birth dates, the common
man has a beter understanding of these aspects hence, the popularity of
the Sun Signs.
Although, a person's individual Natal Chart and other planetary aspects
(current and past) are required to accurately predict about his/ her future
and personality, the Sun-Signs do give a fair, albeit general, indicaton. A lot
has already been said and writen on the twelve Zodiac Signs Sun-Signs,
and the way they infuence an individual's personality, characteristc features
and other areas of life. This book, however, aims to bring you a slightly
diferent perspectve. There is something for everyone in this book for the
avid news bufs and the crazy sports bufs, not to menton the zodiac junkie!
Your Zodiac Horoscopes 2015 by GaneshaSpeaks.com atempts to frst
decode each Sun Sign in a manner that is going to make you sit back and
take notce be it the general nuances or how Zodiac Signs behave when in
love or distress or when faced by design choices. This is what gives this book a
tmeless appeal. The importance of predictons for a coming year may wane
as the tme elapses, but this detailed, step-wise and 'diferently' classifed
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

knowledge about each Zodiac Sign will always come handy. This aspect
makes this book an invaluable and extremely handy reference.
As you begin reading the book, you will come across special and interestng
features on Sun Sign preferences and sensibilites. The 'Sun-Sign in a
nutshell' feature is meant to give you a fair idea of the most important
aspects related to each Sign be it the best day, lucky gemstone or the best
partner!
As you move ahead and reach the Predictons secton, you will come across
clear, concise and detailed predictons for the year 2015 for each Sun Sign.
The predictons have been arrived at afer a metculous analysis of the
planetary alignments in store in the year 2015 vis-a-vis each Zodiac Sign.
All atempts have been made to keep the predictons lucid and concise. For
each Sign, you will get yearly, in-depth month-by-month and week-by-week
forecasts. The annual horoscope secton comprehensively covers topics like
fnance and career, home and domestc life, public and social life, health
trends etc. The monthly and weekly forecasts are meant to provide you
ample hints on auspicious days, important areas, months/ weeks when you
need to be extra cautous and much more.
All in all, Your Zodiac Horoscopes 2015 by GaneshaSpeaks.com has been
writen and compiled with an aim to enhance the happiness and satsfacton
quotent of your life. As already pointed above, it can be used as a general
guide to understand yourself and people around you beter, and hence deal
with them more efectvely. It can also be employed to foresee the probable
challenges, and consequently handle them well all through the year 2015
and even beyond that. You may also gif it to your loved ones. Ganesha
wishes you luck, and hopes that you will utlise this book, His gif to you, to
the fullest, and in the best possible manner.

Author's Note
All the Zodiac Sign descriptons and predictons (barring the artcles) carried
in this book are based on the Sun Signs and the Western methodology of
Astrology. Plus, they have been writen and compiled keeping in mind an
average reader, who may or may not be familiar with the subject of
Astrology in general, and Zodiac Signs in partcular. Hence, we have tried to
keep the implicatons and deductons general, universally applicable and
interestng. And, have deliberately avoided loaded, text-book terms and
extremely specifc nuances.
Beside the Sun Sign - the Ascendant, the Moon Sign and other planetary
rulers exert a signifcant amount of infuence on an individual, and play a
vital role in shaping his future and life. An individual is ofen a sum total of
all these (and more), and although Sun Signs do make a great contributon,
they are duly assisted and infuenced (even dominated) by other aspects.
The Sun Sign descriptons and predictons, thus, given in the book Your

GaneshaSpeaks.com |

Zodiac Horoscopes 2015 are largely general in nature. They do not take into
consideraton Astrology's other specifcs.
Let's understand this beter with an example. Our editor here is a typical,
slightly awkward Capricorn (Sun Sign), and when she earnestly claims that
she has not ever donned a pair of pointy stletos, nobody does a doubletake. In fact, they are ever so slightly amused on seeing her clumsy gait even
in the kiten heels (heels are impractcal!). However, when the next moment
she splurges on a silly pair of intricate earrings, people are fabbergasted.
Whatever happened to her Capricorn staidness and practcality? The answer
lies in her Libra moon! Her dominant Sun Sign traits get mitgated by her
Moon Sign traits; she can hardly contain herself, when confronted by beauty
(a marked Libra infuence).
While reading your favoured Zodiac Sign predictons, please bear in mind
that although Sun Signs have helped us create a near-perfect predictons for
the year 2015, there is always a possibility of discrepancies in the fnal
results. Besides, for all practcal purposes, not all individual nuances can be
covered within the scope of a book. Keep these important points in mind, as
you go about enjoying this, otherwise vastly useful, book, and you shall see
how, subtly yet powerfully, these insights improve your life and its various
aspects.
Also, again for practcal purposes, we have, at diferent contexts in the
book, used the alternate symbolic names of the Zodiac Signs in this book.
The Ram stands for Aries, the Bull for Taurus, the Twins for Gemini, the
Crab for Cancer, the Lion for Leo, the Virgin for Virgo, the Scales for Libra,
the Archer for Sagitarius, the Goat for Capricorn, the Water Bearer for
Aquarius and the Fish for Pisces (with the excepton of Scorpio). In no way,
do we intend any ofence on the people of any Zodiac Sign by employing
these names.
Lastly, please note that the Zodiac Sign pointers and Yearly predictons
given here are in NO way a substtute to your personal discreton OR a
professionally done Natal Chart (Personal Horoscope) reading.
Live and let live!

The Zodiac Mysteries


The Sun is the largest celestal body in our solar system. As per
Astrology, the Sun signifes the Soul. No wonder it holds a place of
pride, when it comes to understanding and interpretng a birth chart in
astrology. Of course, other vital planets and their positoning in a
Horoscope decide the course of one's life. But, the importance of Sun
cannot be over-emphasised. Western Astrology lays a plenty of
emphasis on employing Sun's positoning and its relaton with other
planets in determining one's characteristc traits, features and even
future trends. Sun is said to exert a major infuence on one's personality
and personal life, and also determines one's choices and preferences.
Based on the entre Zodiac, there are a total of 12 Sun Signs, also
referred to as Star Signs in myriad literature. They are based on one's
Date of Birth, and take into account the aforementoned fact that the
Sun is indicatve of, to a great degree, one's personal qualites, tastes,
preferences and choices. Although a division of qualites based on Sun
Signs is seen as too broad by many, it stll gives a fair view/ idea of the
likes, dislikes and lucky charms of people of a partcular set.
Now, each Sun Sign may have any of the three main qualites Cardinal,
Fixed or Mutable - four Sun Signs fall under each quality. Some of each
Sun Sign's inherent traits may also be traced to these umbrella qualites.
Cardinal Signs are Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn. These Signs are
seen as actve, enterprising and innovatve. Noted for their leadership
qualites, these Signs are NOT necessarily dominant and overpowering.
People of these Signs would rather make their presence felt with calm
authority.
Ofen referred to as the organizers of the Zodiac, the Signs that fall
under the Fixed quality are Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. Quite
resistant to change, people under these Signs tend to be stubborn,
intense, steadfast and fercely loyal. Freedom loving, they usually turn
detached and reclusive (usually with the excepton of the gregarious
Leo), when their personal space is invaded.
The four Mutable Signs are Gemini, Virgo, Sagitarius and Pisces. All
the four mutable ones tend to be excellent communicators, and are
seen as versatle and adaptable. Networking and inter-personal skills
may safely be called as their forte. The natves of these four Signs tend
to be somewhat self-absorbed.

The Zodiac Elements and Colour


Palete
Elements
The popular astrology takes into account four elements Fire, Air,
Water and Earth. All the 12 Sun Signs can be classifed under these
elements such that there are three Sun Signs under each head The Fire Signs Aries, Leo, Sagitarius
The Earth Signs Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn
The Air Signs Gemini, Libra, Aquarius
The Water Signs Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces

Astrology and Colour


Colours are important to us, and they do have an impact on us. They fll
the otherwise mundane life with excitement, zaniness and beauty.
Colours are said to have a marked efect on our sensibilites, feelings,
moods etc. That is why there is a noted alternatve therapy called as
Colour Therapy. Surround yourself with compatble colours, and see the
diference yourself.
Various tones, moods, qualites and feelings can be associated with
colours or colour groups like Reds are warm, Blues are cool while
Greens are said to induce restulness, and white is said to augur clarity
of thought.
When it comes to the connecton between colours and astrology,
diferent colours have been associated since tmes immemorial with
various Zodiac Signs. The connecton is largely made based on the
elements and qualites linked with the Zodiac Signs, and also on the
personality traits associated with these signs, elements and qualites.
One can choose the colours and colour mixes based on their Zodiac,
their element and/ or their complementary nature. Elements which
naturally foster each other are said to be complementary in terms of
colour palete too. So, you will see that the colours associated with the
Earth Signs and the colours associated with the Water Signs will be
related, and same goes for the Fire colours and the Air colours, which
are said to enliven each other.
Now, using or bringing in a compatble colour scheme at all tmes can
be tricky, especially if you feel stuck due to professional or conventonal
reasons, and cannot suddenly introduce an eclectc colour scheme into
your life. Firstly, note that surrounding yourself with a good, compatble
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

14

colour is important, if you are looking to beneft from the therapeutc


and astrological propertes of colour. But, how you do it is best lef to
you only, which means that it could be done in any which way you fnd
suitable. Add colour to your surroundings with the aids of home dcor,
paint on the walls, paintngs, fower arrangements, aquarium or simply
with clothes, accessories or colourful additons at your workplace desk.

The Fire Signs


The three Zodiac Signs that subscribe to the element Fire are Aries, Leo
and Sagitarius. Actve, enthusiastc individuals of this group tend to be
quite assertve and vigorous. The people under this group, in these
three Signs are not the ones to be easily deterred by the blows of life.
Always striving to rise above the mundane and swim upstream, these
Zodiac Signs are the initators, and don't hesitate in putng their
imaginaton to creatve reality. Fire Signs gel well the most with the
signs under the same group, yet they also tend to connect with the Air
Signs. Fire and Water do not make a good mix, and hence signs of these
two groups tend to not connect well. As far as the Earth Signs are
concerned, Fire Signs tend to have an average to decent amount of
tolerance for them.
Associated Colours
All Fire Signs can be most associated with the varied colours related to
the fre itself. So, be it faming reds, invitng tangerines or shades of
yellow, Fire Signs tend to relate to it all.
Aries
The Aries-born is a restless, actve and courageous individual, and thus
associates most with the brightest or rather deepest of the colours in
the Red family. So, all kinds of reds - crimson, scarlet, brick-red, tomato
red, vermilion and even pillar-box red work for them. Aries is also the
ruler of these colours.
Leo
Sun is the ruler of mighty lions, the Leos the intmidatng leaders of
the Zodiac, or so they would like to believe! Hence, the colours most
associated with the Lions are sunlight colours yellows in all shades
and hues, orange, tangerine, gold, burnished golden, bright yellow of
daisies and sunshine.
Sagitarius
The Archer as a Zodiac Sign is ruled by the largest planet Jupiter the
planet of deep, profound thought, analysis and knowledge. Thus the
colours associated are the colours of Jupiter deep yellows, mustard
yellow, greenish yellows, and even indigo, deep blue etc. Darker shades
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

15

of red like maroon etc. are also associated, and even the colours that
are formed by combining reds with the tnges of blue and yellow
purples, violets, aubergine etc.

The Earth Signs


Cautous, practcal and methodical in their approach and attude, Earth
Signs represent the ground reality in the Zodiac. Down-to-earth with a
conservatve perspectve and a subtle, ofen subdued taste, the Earth
Signs Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn - tend to be the fag bearers of
everything that's stable, earthy and realistc. Their understated
preferences and high regard for quality, durability and relevance are
mirrored in the way they carry themselves. Ofen the ones to be the
most well turned out amongst a crowd, Earth Signs value their pre-set
goals, materialism and wealth, and have a genuine respect for people
who manage to carve a niche for themselves. Impulsiveness doesn't
come naturally, even though it's desirable that they let themselves go,
at tmes doing something rash, fun or colourful, just once in a while,
won't hurt them!
Associated Colours
The colours of nature and earth tend to be the best for theses earthy
creatures. Practcal colours that have a mater-of-fact appeal work well,
and are best carried. However, this doesn't mean that these elegant
Signs can't carry of anything jazzy or psychedelic. It's actually good if
they become more experimental, and do something crazy once in a
while.
Yet, it's unlikely that Earth Signs will dress in a riot of colour from head
to toe. But, then slightly ofeat ones will match some zany colours
nicely with their favourite, subtle tones. Not that they go wrong usually
when it comes to the aesthetcs, anyway! Unsurprisingly, Earth Signs
tend to have a special preference for pastels and beige.
Water Signs make the best matches for the Earth ones, and the colours
associated with Water do well for the Earth ones too. Colours of Fire
and Air too may be connected to the colours of Earth.
Taurus
This Sign enjoys the broadest range of colours and a most eclectc,
although subtle, palete thanks to its ruling planet Venus. The planet of
beauty, aesthetcs and atracton bears a special connecton with colour
in all its forms, and so Taurus too ends up enjoying it. Most pastel
colours, pale hues and foral tones work well for the Bulls. So it's pale
blues, surf greens and rosy pinks all the way for these exotc ones. In
short an idyllic blend of all elements - colours of Fire, Water and Air in

their exotc best - works wonders.


Virgo
Virgos move further into the spectrum inching towards the earth tones
of dull blues, greens and even yellows, muted beige, mushroom hues,
greys and fawn. Although all these colours suit Virgos, you will see them
experimentng with other colours too. The self-loving Virgins have a
great faith in their own self, which makes it easier for them to break out
of their practcal mould more than their counterpart Earth Signs.
Capricorn
Next in line is the zodiac's most dignifed yet retcent and conventonal
Sign Capricorn the upward moving Goat. They take the analogy of
earth and associated colours further into the spectrum. The colours
most suited to them are the deepest of the shades of earth jewel
tones in green, blue and brown, mud brown and beige, soot-grey, dark
grey and yes....black. The later ones are best associated thanks to
Capricorn's ruling planet Saturn. The take-away, though, for Goats is
that they will do best with these colours, but it will not hurt, if they
loosen up somewhat and add more tones from the palete of mother
earth an icy blue, an electric green and even a sandstone red won't
hurt!

The Air Signs


Cool, light and collected airy in short that's how one can broadly
describe the Air Signs Libra, Gemini and Aquarius. These are the ones
who mostly manage to keep a calm, ratonal and largely detached
approach in most emotonal of the situatons. Not the ones to usually
put up a show of their inner feelings and emotons, these signs are
actve, agile and communicatve. Intellectual actvites are stmulatng
for them, and choosing their colours too become something they deal
ratonally with. No wonder their design and colour choices bear a
cerebral perspectve. Air Signs gel well among each other, as each of
them is chaty, communicatve and likes to be with right people at the
right place and right tme too perfectonist, but, so what, it suits
them! They have an eye for expensive stuf and luxuries of life enchant
them. Earth and Water Signs generally fnd it difcult to associate with
Air Signs, as either will not be comfortable with the other in the long
run, despite a good start.
Associated Colours
Air is colourless and transparent to a great degree. The colours of sky
and translucent tones may also be atributed to air. Same goes for the
Air Signs the colours related to air apply for Air Signs too. So, it's hues

GaneshaSpeaks.com |

17

of sky, changing colours of horizon, whites all can be associated with


the Air Signs. Thumb rule is 'light' and 'cool'. Earthy tones and deep,
mysterious hues will not fnd favour here!
Libra
The balanced ones Libra fnd it easy to ratonalize during trickiest of
the life's issues. No wonder they opt for the most professional, coolest
and balanced of the hues. So, it's blues and shades all the way for this
Air Sign. Medium shades of blue, translucent greens and light, even
whitsh blues and pale pinks all are great. Although the Libra are born
with an inherent charm, garish colours are not carried well, and so says
the astrology. So, it's not Sagitarius's dark blue or Taurus's pale, pastel
one, but the mid-hue of blue that suits a Libra. Libra and Taurus
thanks to their shared ruling planet Venus, display similarity in this
respect.
Gemini
The ruling planet of Gemini, Mercury, is quite good an explanaton for
their mercurial temperament. Confused? Don't be or else forget
understanding a Gemini! There are extremes, and they like both of
them. Twins' design and colour choices refect the same. Their
associated colours stretch from the pale yellow of Mercury to the
transparent blues of sky. Colours of the Sun, varying colours of horizon
scatered pink of the twilight and dull grey interspersed with golden
and blue of dawn and aquamarine blue all fnd favour with the Twins.
Aquarius
Electric blue the brightest of the sky colour family fnds the place of
pride in a Water Bearer's life. The colour is a refecton of this Sign's
startling persona difcult to explain reactons even when pleasant,
unexpected responses and the overall mystery. Jade green, royal blue,
turquoise, deep surf blue fnd favour with Aquarius. And, so do deep
grey and black! There's a nice analogy that can describe an Aquarius'
taste in colours it's as changeable, unexplainable and myriad as the
changing shade of clouds and sky would be, if one moved towards the
outer limits of atmosphere, on the verge of entering the depths of
space!!

The Water Signs


The trio of Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces form the Water Signs. All three
share their emotonal excesses and sensitvity, yet they are not the ones
to be bogged down by unpleasantness and fears. It's, in fact, pressure
and responsibilites, which psyche them out making them withdraw and
under-perform. Yet, all the three Signs can be credited for excellent

GaneshaSpeaks.com |

18

intuitve prowess and an internal strength that's seldom seen. No


wonder they tend to be the absorbers of negatvity and others' troubles
and fears. But, it's their strong emotonal responses, which can be quite
draining, and that is why these Signs need their private space and
seclusion to recharge their emotonal reserves. Don't nag a Watery Sign,
if he/ she is withdrawn! Their notable spirituality and perceptveness is
well known. Water Signs do well with the Signs of the Earth family, as
the earth tends to lend form and structure to water. Colours related to
the Earth Signs, thus, do well for the Water ones too. Fire and Air are
not compatble with Water while the Fire is absolutely incompatble,
Air may have inital pleasant moments, which don't last long.
Associated Colours
It goes without saying that colours related to the depths and mysteries
of nature in general and water in partcular associate well with the
Water Signs. So, it could be any colour ranging from blues and greens of
water to the burnished golds and deep reds of a sunset. Muted, pale
tones of earth brown may not suit their taste, but stark white, ofwhites and silver make their day.
Cancer
The most watery of the three Water Signs is Crab, and that is why they
bear the maximum afnity to the hues of water and, not surprisingly,
sea their home. Beach lovers, malleable and reclusive, they love the
marine colours, but it's the colours of Moon that fnd maximum
preference with them. That is because Moon is their ruler, and is also
the one that makes them gentle, confused and dreamy. The lightest
shades of blue surf blue, the blues of the ocean foam and the blue of
the morning sky gentle and polished work the best. Same applies to
the greens never the electric or gaudy shades, but the sea greens of
the pastel variety. And, what rules, obviously, is White and silver and a
few smoky colours associated with moon, full-moon and even no moon!
Scorpio
Scorpio is diferent than the two other Water Signs in more than one
way. The most mysterious Sign of the Zodiac is deeply associated with
the darkest and deepest shades be it reds, maroons, violets, browns,
golds - all thanks to Mars, the planet closely associated with Scorpio.
Pluto, the coldest and the farthest planet, the ruling planet of Scorpio
also bears its efects on their design and colour sensibilites. Hence, the
afnity towards dark! And then, there are the colours from the water
palete greens, blues and the likes but all in their darker hues.
Pisces
Pisces picks up from where the Scorpio stops! So, this dreamy, romantc
and submissive Signgets the hint of reds and violets from Scorpio, and
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

19

adjusts them to suit its sensibilites. Thus, it's fuchsia, mauves, lavender,
pale purples and pinks all hues of pink rather; it's the most feminine
and romantc colour afer all for Fish in the colour department. And,
then there are light, bright green, aquamarine and sea-blue, which suit
them quite well, and bring out their best features. Whites, creams,
peach and dreamy tones of various colours also atract the design
sensibilites of a Fish. All in all, a splash of colour, but all mixed and
coordinated to the aesthetc t.

Zodiac Signs in Love


Aries : Vitality is the second name of this proverbial infant. Aries knows
how to celebrate life with his candour, optmism and love for adventure.
Probably that is why despite being the self-centred, self-absorbed,
impulsive babe, Aries is so lovable, and manages to win admirers with a
surprising ease. Love for them is a given, a necessity that has to be
fulflled. They demand it as if it is their birth-right. They will go to the
least probable places looking for love, especially if it catches their fancy.
When in Love, they tend to be very loving and mindful of their loved
one's needs and demands. Happiest to pamper with extravagant
gestures, they see love as an accomplishment. The babe in Aries secretly
craves a lot of babying, and yearns that all his desires be fulflled at the
frst instance. Aries need constant reassurances in love (though, they
usually are too egoistc and smug to accept!). A happy and satated in
love Aries is generous and cheerful. While, a neglected in love Aries shall
shout, cry and throw tantrums. Besides, an unhappy in love Aries may
develop a tendency to get bored with people too soon, may even
become a philanderer.
Taurus : The healthy, cherubic baby in Taurus is loved and admired by
many, and yet many are afraid of his stubborn tantrums and sudden,
unannounced grumpiness. The toddler-in-making understands and
appreciates the love and security net provided by his family, and lays
supreme importance on both, as he needs them for his sustenance and
happiness. Anything that brings the familiar comfort and warmth is
valued and clung on to by Taurus. Love for them is afecton in its primal,
physical, visible sensual sense. Love to a Taurus ought to be pleasurable
and available, when he needs it. And, he likes (and knows) to both give
and receive love. The deeper, more subliminal aspect of love may not be
understood by the Bull. Very steadfast and loyal, Taurus natves value
material comforts and security, and get drawn to people who have and
can provide for them. When in Love Bulls are devoted. Their
understanding and display of love, though, may lack depth or
tenderness. Traditonal and least change-oriented, their relatonships
too may mirror their personalites. Rejecton and betrayal are abhorred!
Gemini : The toddler in Gemini understands, appreciates and values his
autonomy and new-found independence. He can speak and express, and
is no longer dependent on others for fulflment. Communicaton is new
and very very enchantng! This is intoxicatng. Most Geminis love to talk.
And, manage to leave others smiten in the process. Love for them is
conformity that does bring happiness and pleasure, yet can be a
hindrance to complete, uninhibited freedom. In positve sense, love
becomes an enjoyable bond for Gemini. When negatvely viewed, it may
cause resentment, as the Twins may see love as restrictve. When in
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

21

Love, Gemini can be versatle, entertaining, inquisitve and stmulatng.


Their candid, amicable personalites make them great companions.
Spending hours simply chatng and interactng with their loved one is
always on their agenda. Geminis, however, are prone to bouts of
restlessness and recklessness. Impractcal, impatent and inconsistent
when under such spells, they may atempt to run away from love. Also
prone to the feelings of duality about love and relatonships one
moment craving the pleasure, amusement and warmth the love brings,
and the next moment resentng it with full force.
Cancer : The Crab craves change, yet is scared of it. Not an adult yet, the
adolescent hidden in Cancer is enchanted by the grown up, mature
world, while the security net of his family, the familiarity and safety of
his home stll tugs him back. The Crab deals with a plenty of emotons,
many of which are new to him, yet very real, very deep. He watches
others with an eerie percepton, and thence develops his famous
instnct, his intuiton. Love for them is the emotonal security net, a need
that is above all, and that, ideally, should come from a familiar corner of
their lives. This great need for love evokes in them a deep
sentmentality. When in Love, they love with all their senses, all their
might completely and irrevocably. They make gentle, sensitve, caring
and loving mates, ofen sensible and cautous. And, they need an equal
amount of, if not more, love, atenton and tenderness back from their
partner. Crabs can't handle hurts, though their silent anger is wellknown, and so is their tenacious shell. They need their quiet moments to
recharge and refuel their drained emotons.
Leo : The king Leo is regal, proud and confdent of the self, of the
ability and of his knowledge. Courageous, large-hearted and
compassionate, Lion is full of youthful enthusiasm and vigour, ofen the
proverbial performer. The symbol of idealistc young blood, the bright,
warming sunshine and the spring bloom, Leo loves gazing at himself,
admiring his handsome features, dogged drive, keen percepton,
surprising candour and admirable wit. Love for the Lion is romance
bright, frothy and beautful akin to the fairy tales. Lion loves the idea
of 'being in love'. This feeling for Leo may not always be about loving
someone else, but oneself and the whole world, at large. In love, the Leo
are supremely ardent, afectonate, loving and amorous. They love
pampering their loved ones with open displays of afecton and
magnanimous gestures. In return, they expect, rather demand, ample
doses of praises and thank-yous. On the fip side, although, Leos possess
all the qualites of a great life partner, they can be taxing as lovers.
Besides, given their vanity and social popularity, they may end up
neglectng their partners or drif towards multple relatonships.
Virgo : Conscientous, dutful perfectonists, Virgos are metculous and
prim with a compettve, survival instnct so marked that it dominates
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

22

their life and choices. No wonder that they are said to signify the realist
young adult donning the mantle of maturity and determinaton. Capable
of dissectng, de-constructng and analysing almost everything, Virgos
believe in submitng to the norm for the beneft of duty and practcality.
Love to them is a mystery to which they are ofen happy and content to
surrender. On the edge of awareness, yet not willing to know further,
Virgos may believe completely in what they see. Completely devoted to
their relatonships, they do keep their practcal antennae up, at all tmes.
Besides, their constantly working minds may not allow them to let their
hair down. When in Love, they are gentle, dutful and loyal. They love
taking care of their loved ones, creatng perfect havens and pampering
along the way. Dependence is abhorred, and so are sloth and
disorganisaton. Virgos' vigilant, fretng selves rarely miss anything.
Becoming overly critcal of partner's faws is a possibility with Virgos.
Jealousy and compettveness too may mar Virgos' relatonships.
Libra : Libra is capable of understanding and appreciatng myriad facets
of human existence and the world at large. Libra knows that the key lies
in moderaton, in fnding and internalising the fne art of balance.
Existence comes to assume a wider perspectve in the Libran world. Love
to them is, thus, harmony. Matng of minds that is balanced not
extreme in any way, leading to happy, pleasurable results. In Libra's
poised, symmetrical world, love is also a lot about beauty. These people
know when they have fallen in love, and like it to come with all the frills
atached -wine, roses, candles, pink hearts et al. However, they may
rarely get to know why. Getng drawn towards beauty, elegance,
money, success, fne things in life, lifestyle, they may forget/ fail to
appreciate their partner for what/ who he/ she is. When in Love, they
make for atractve, charming, tender, commited and interestng
partners. Objectve and fair, they may take their tme to say yes, but
once they have made up their minds, they seldom stage a walk-out.
Scorpio : Passionate, sorted, capable, mature, keenly intuitve, yet
insecure, restless and secretve, Scorpios are as mysterious as they
come. This emotonal and magnetc Water Sign signifes the mature
human being who already knows a plenty, yet is able to perceive that
there's a lot he stll hasnt seen. And thus, he desires to see and fnd it
all. Scorpio is fercely protectve of his own self, and of his loved ones.
Any hurt and Scorpio refexively stngs back revenge, instant and
complete is the name of the game in his raw, intense world. Defeats
motvate him, and hurts harden his resolve to bounce back. Love for
them is an all consuming desire for oneness that engulfs their lives, and
greatly afects their opinions. To them love is supreme, worthy of any
sacrifce, even when expressed and understood in a more physical,
carnal way. In love, Scorpio is potent, protectve, gentle and loyal. In the
beginning, though, they may play it cool. Passionate to the core, these
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

23

magnetc and powerful beings are sure to draw atenton and


appreciaton from myriad quarters.
Sagitarius : Restless, inquisitve and philosophical Sagitarius fnd it hard
to believe anything/ anyone at the frst go, and hence take tme to form
opinions. Born with a unique spirit of inquiry, they (with their
penetratng logic and curiosity) aim to unearth the mysteries. Candid as
they are, in their atempt to know and see, they may end up asking/
saying blunt, embarrassing or rude things. They can be optmistc yet
sceptcal, fanatc yet atheist, and tactless yet serious! Love to them is
true, eternal yet something that they may never see or feel, and thus
needs to be found, investgated, restored or retained, before it is lost
forever. No wonder, Archers are insecure, even though their insecurites
are carefully masked under the garb of garrulous, self-immersed, blunt
exteriors. Scared of reality (and even shocked beyond repair by it), they
seek refuge in idealism. Unable to look inwards, so socially tuned in they
are, they may fail to achieve true fulfllment. In love, Sagitarius are
cheerful, optmistc, communicatve and adventurous. They are their
happiest in a new relatonship, as there is so much to fnd, so much to
know and so much to see.
Capricorn : Hardened by experience, Capricorn is stable, steadfast,
responsible, driven and dependable. However tred or weary it may be,
the Goat is never scared of leading the way for others or taking a new
responsibility. Gifed with great personal strength, organizatonal skills
and a perfunctory sense of practcality, they believe in carrying on when
others have long stopped or discarded a task. Love to them is a mutually
satsfying exchange that brings the needed security, peace and
contentment. It may not be the idyllic, romantc, liberatng feeling as in
the movies, but is defnitely important. Capricorns' stern exterior and
Saturnine ways hide their gentle, tender side. Yet, they understand that
love means being able to forgive, and rise above the human faws. When
in love, they are dependable and caring. Not the ones to believe in
excess of emoton and display, however, they tend to be controlled,
measured, even cautous in their approach to love. They may even be
called selfsh and callous. But, let a Goat open up, and you may have a
very interestng partner beside you, who does have a sense of humour
(even if tnged with sarcasm and irony), and who is capable of
appreciatng fner things in life.
Aquarius : Novelty enchants Aquarius, and the modernity infuses life
into them. Aquarius frmly believe that they know and can infer. Liberal
to the point of being peculiar, even eccentric at tmes, yet so wise, they
are a mystery to many. Fixed in their own personal priorites, style and
opinions, they crave, propagate and encourage change. And, hence
comes the duality, which surprises other people. Love for them is cool,
impersonal yet unselfsh and enjoyable. To the humanitarians of the
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

24

zodiac, love is universal and ought to be selfess. In love, Aquarius is


communicatve, imaginatve, wity, candid and friendly. The mate of this
intelligent person will fnd great fun in spending tme with him, as an
Aquarius is always full of beans innovatve, bubbling with novel ideas
to do something diferent and unconventonal yet fun and cosy. Usually
loyal (especially when they have found the 'one'), and supportve of
independent partners, they themselves guard their independence
fercely. On the fip side, since many Water Bearers have their hands full,
their social calendars chock-a-block, they may get detached, absentminded and unmindful of their partner's needs. And, when confronted,
they may simply refuse to cooperate.
Pisces : Dreamy, romantc healers of the Zodiac, the Pisces are kindred
souls sympathetc and modest. Ofen quiet, slow and measured, the
proverbial 'old souls' seem to possess a deep understanding of life,
especially when seen from a distance. Ones who come across as
detached and passive, they may seem troubled to some and enchantng
to others. Some Pisces may want to abandon it all and leave, while
others may completely give in to the epicurean, hedonistc romantc
ideal. Love is a selfess emoton to them, a miracle that completes,
creates a 'whole', and requires entre submission of the self. In love,
Pisces are is nurturing, intuitve, selfess and compassionate, yet
frustratng at tmes. Rarely willing to explain his stance and quite fxed in
opinions and thoughts, they are capable of evoking a variety of feelings,
broad enough to cover the entre spectrum of extremes. They avoid,
rather shun, confrontaton and make submissive partners. In healthy
relatonships, they fower, blossom and are capable of ataining their
poetc, philosophic and creatve best. Wrong experiences, on the other
hand, may divert them towards the irrevocable routes of addictons,
alcoholism, promiscuity and wastng.

Zodiac Sign Preferences


Know the preferences of various Zodiac Signs. Find out which one
makes the best shopping partner, and which one of them would make
the best gym-buddy! Also fnd about the preferences of various Zodiac
Signs' natves in terms of sports and health.
Aries: Initatng any actvity comes naturally to these initators of the
Zodiac, but the real challenge for them lies in sustaining interest in it.
Energy, initatve and enthusiasm are a given, but so are impatence and
wavering atenton, when it comes to Rams. An Aries loves to be
pronounced as a ftness freak, and will also love to indulge in myriad
sportng and physical exercise actvites. But, then, they may not really
be very consistent with these 'gym and playground' escapades. However,
given their natural ebullience, they tend to excel in sportng actvites,
especially running, sprints, cycling, biking and high-impact aerobics.
Their choice for auto-mobiles too mirrors their love for everything
contemporary, fast and challenging Aries love to ride a sports-bike or a
sports-car. And, whatever they choose to drive, one thing is sure - their
'mean-machine' has to be snazzy! Aries exhibit similar tastes, when it
comes to other things like clothes, accessories, jewels and footwear.
They will always point at the most in-style and chic jewellery and
apparels. So, it's a wise idea to take them as shopping companions
they won't be imposing, but will lend you excellent advice about latest
places to shop and trendiest stuf to buy. Have fun!
Taurus: Headstrong and stable Bulls are practcal beings, and thus
appreciate the importance of physical ftness and regular exercise. But,
then they may fnd it difcult to implement this understanding, given
their proclivity for many other actvites and pastmes. Thus, a Taurus
may fnd it hard to divide his/ her actvity or reading tme to get going on
a treadmill. However, when it comes to sports and fun actvites, they
more than make it up for any lack of physical exercise. They love to put
their endurance and stamina to test by indulging in actvites like rowing,
tug-of-war, canoeing, mountaineering, hiking, trekking, travelling the
world and gardening. On the sports front, basketball, volleyball, cricket,
golf, rugby rule for Bulls.
Materialistc Bulls like to frmly believe that their possessions, be it
mundane items like garments or their much-loved auto-mobiles, are the
best. They may not always be, though, yet Taurus won't prefer knowing
that. In the jewellery department, understated yet classy stuf rules, and
yes it will be expensive. Think diamonds and tmelessly chic pieces! If
going shopping, take along a Bull, if you are looking for something really
diferent. Their love for the 'eccentric' ofen makes them shop for stuf
that's truly class-apart. So, do take their advice when looking to stand
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

26

apart in a crowd.
Gemini: Wiggly and restless Geminis like sports and physical exercises,
but not as much as partying and socialising. Jogging, spinning, dancing
and fun-games top their list of ways to remain ft. However, most Twins
will manage to have good fun even in a gymnasium. And, that is not
because they love toiling on machines and weights, (they hate it rather)
but because they quickly fnd interestng gym-buddies with whom they
enjoy hanging out for a post-workout snack! When it comes to sports,
anything that is played in pairs catches their atenton, so it's badminton,
tennis, chess or billiards for them, all the way. Compettve sports and
group actvites too fnd favour with the gregarious Twins.
Ample socialising skills lend another excellent trait to Twins their
superior negotaton and bargaining skills. And, they are not the ones to
join the 'brandwagon'. No wonder, Geminis, especially women, make
brilliant shopping companions for budget or street shopping trips. Junk
jewellery and knick-knacks are not favoured items on their shopping list,
though. In fact, otherwise fun loving Geminis are absolutely
conventonal, practcal and utlitarian in the shopping department. So,
they will also not let you go over-board! Their non-fussy preference for
functonal and economical refects in their choice of vehicles too.
Cancer: Drive to match their sensitvity is what is needed by Cancers, if
they wish to achieve what they dream of! Chances of you fnding them
cribbing that their eforts are not showing desired results are high. Why?
Irregularity and lack of passion, maybe! However, give them a dedicated
gym-buddy, and see them making a beeline for their workout, even early
in the morning. An emotonal connect in form of a friend or a partner
can provide the necessary encouragement to propel the Crab towards
his/ her ftness goals. They can also be instantly lured by an outdoor
water sports expediton. Being water babies, Crabs love to indulge in
water polo, boat race, para-sailing, ice-hockey and skiing.
Most Cancers are not regular shoppers, but once they get into a mood
for it (temperamental Crabs are driven by their whims), nothing stops
them. Shopping is a liberatng experience for them. They just wish to
relish the experience when shopping. Shrewd beings, they, however,
manage to get the best value out of their expenditure. Non-intrusive,
excellent shopping partners, they will never remind you of how much
you are spending, though. They like to shop for precious jewellery, and
their collectbles resemble the treasures of the seas - pearls, precious
stones rule. Not given to outward appearances, a Crab may not worry
much about acquiring swanky cars or vehicles, though. Rather, they
would be more than happy driving their cherished old bike or car to
which they will be emotonally atached.
Leo: To channelise their vast energy and enthusiasm in the right way,
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

27

Lions prefer actvites that'll let them excel physically. Conventonal ways
of burning calories won't fnd much preference here, though. Thus,
contemporary and 'diferent' routnes like kick-boxing, aqua-aerobics,
ballroom dancing or hot yoga will suit more to their idea of getng and
remaining in shape. When it comes to sports, Lions again have
aristocratc tastes. Thus, they prefer amusing themselves with sports
atached to royalty. Hence, golf, yachtng, polo, horse-riding and car
racing suit well the Lions' idea of grand entertainment. Gambling and
visit to casinos are also distnct possibilites.
Unlike the former Zodiac Sign Cancer, the Lions are all for outward
appearances. Given to a certain pomposity, Leos like to make bold,
brazen style statements, and that applies to their choice of clothes,
vehicles and jewellery. If their pocket permits, the Lions will love to
become proud owners of a Lamborghini, a Rolls Royce, a Bentley or even
a custom-made version of a vintage car. You'll see them picking up a
chunky neck-piece, a gleaming solitaire or a beaded bracelet, rather than
a delicate pearl ring, when jewellery shopping. And, if they ask you to
join them for a shopping trip, go ahead you'll love the courteous
treatment and ebullient companionship. Reverse the situaton, and the
results may not be as exemplary, though!
Virgo: Loyal and sincere, Virgins are quite regular at sweatng it out.
Being one of the most ftness conscious zodiac signs, their idea of
staying ft includes aerobics, yoga, jogging or dancing. They are all about
the 'au natural' look and feel. Also, besides physically ftness, good
health is also about mental rejuvenaton for them. Thus, they show a
keen interest in games that provide them intellectual stmulaton, apart
from their of-favoured basketball and gymnastcs. You'll also see them
driven towards natural ways of remaining healthy, and that includes
eatng and sleeping well.
Perfectonists to the core, Virgos are metculous even when it comes to
shopping. Here, they exhibit a certain duality, though. On one hand, they
may simply pick up what they like without any prior planning, while on
the other hand they may look for a bag/ watch at fve diferent places,
before zeroing in on the 'One'. Appearances mater, but so does the
'value'. Virgins will buy jewellery only in two cases one, if it's a good
investment, and/ or second, if they really, really like it. No wonder, they
have a special preference for precious-metal jewellery and precious
stones. For imitaton pieces, they go for semi-precious stones, chunky,
psychedelic or ethnic look that'll make them stand out. As for the
vehicles, Virgins have a bizarre choice, especially if they can't aford an
expensive model they fancy. They will prefer to buy a remodelled version
than use a run-of-the-mill budget car/ bike.
Libra: Balance and poise these are the two mantras around which a
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

28

Libra's life and preferences revolve. They seek balance in all aspects of
their life, and health and physical ftness are no diferent. Meditaton,
yoga, other calming and balancing forms of exercise appeal to them. So,
it's not only about burning calories, but also about 'lifing spirits and
feeling great'. Unconventonal exercise forms like Tai Chi, Kalaripayatu
and Kendo shall fnd favour with a Libra. Relaxing/ unwinding and having
fun are vital to a Libra for overall ftness afer all it's all about balance.
When it comes to sports, they are highly fond of athletc-actvites that
would let them test and hone their balance. So, it's gymnastcs, spinning,
hurdle-races, handball, skateboarding or skatng for them, all the way.
Suave, stylish and ofen well-turned out Libra natves, surprisingly, do
not like to shop. A Libra male is most likely to despise his wife's/
girlfriends shopping expeditons. Female Libra, on the other hand, may
love to buy expensive and designer stuf, but more so for her intmate
relatons than her own self. However, you can consult them for tps on
latest fashion and trends, and they shall happily oblige. And, don't
forget, they love receiving classy gifs chic and delicate jewellery
included. Buying or wearing jewellery, otherwise, isn't a preference
here. Any jewellery bought by them is merely for investment purposes.
They carry the same attude, when it comes to their auto-mobiles. In
fact, they would rather have their vehicles passed on to them as a
legacy.
Scorpio: Intensely compettve and passionate in whatever they do,
Scorpio natves tend to look for the ways to enhance their physical
prowess and mental strength. Besides, anything that intrigues and
energizes them is also good enough to keep them going. Thus, when it's
about physical training, these aspects act as the guiding force. Vinayasayoga, power-yoga, rock climbing or mult-gym actvites ft the bill
perfectly! In the sports department, intense athletc actvites or
marathon races, which test their endurance and stamina, are their idea
of fun and play. Scorpios are also, many a tmes, unbeatable at games
like chess, monopoly. These are the sports that not only require a
defnitve strategy, but also give them a chance to faunt their expertse.
And, if that's not all, the Scorpio may choose to zoom away in a powerful
bike or a tme-tested car at the end of the day to refresh himself/
herself. Their chosen vehicle will, however, have to be sturdy, reliable
and easy to maintain.
Atractve and ofen quite poised, Scorpios have a distnct and defnitve
taste in clothes. They have set choices, and don't like anyone giving
them any advice on it. The wardrobe of a Scorpio woman is usually very
tasteful, and may even be a cause of envy for many. Most Scorpios have
an exquisite choice in both clothes and accessories, and many of them
may be the proud owners of some of the fnest and rarest jewellery
pieces and/ or precious stones. Tried and tested brands rule, but not for

the sake of exclusivity, but because they guarantee longevity and trust.
No wonder, most Scorpio women worship shopping. However, many
men of this Sign are, more or less, indiferent to the shopping actvity.
However, they will readily pay the bill, without being grumpy or
inquisitve about your purchases. They may not be very appreciatve too!
Sagitarius: A powerhouse of energy, an Archer displays great strength
and stamina, and tends to take his/ her workout routne a tad too
seriously. They have the knack of getng down to the slightest of the
details, and will metculously plan each of their moves. Adventurous and
always ready to experiment, Archers, however, fail when they overdo
this very bit. They fourish the most in a compettve scenario where
they get ample chances to boast and make show of their abilites.
Adventure, team actvites, vigorous sports like squash, lawn-tennis,
swimming, horse-riding and even basket ball, baseball and hiking/
trekking suit their sensibilites best. If this does not sufce, they like to
hit the road to explore new destnatons in their posh set of hot-wheels
a Sports Utlity Vehicle, maybe!
If the 'best-dressed' Sun Sign award was to be declared, a Sagitarius
natve would win hands down! The Archers have a knack to pick up just
the 'right' objects at the 'right' tme. An Archer woman is considered to
be street-smart, as she would exactly know what to and from where to
buy, and that includes jewellery. Great at bargaining skills, she'll also
ofen manage to buy at the most reasonable rates. On the other hand,
Archer men are relatvely laid-back, and would rather be patent
onlookers, while you shop. Thus, all in all, it's not a bad idea to take
them as shopping companions, especially if their interests are as ardent
(for shopping) as yours.
Capricorn: No one appreciates the benefts and rewards of an exercise
and ftness program more than a dedicated Goat. Capable of frst
sweatng it out on a treadmill before heading for a tango/ jazz session,
Capricorn natves will be able to strike a balance between myriad means
to keep ft, given they gel with his/ her current set of responsibilites.
Weights, cardio, yoga, aerobics or walking in a nearby park - all may be
favoured they just have to fall in line with the Goat's busy workschedule. And if that's not all, they'll also manage to ft in a trekking
expediton, a soccer game or following some natural remedy, but only if
tme, or rather their work, permits. They also love playing compettve
feld sports that test their stamina and energy.
Practcal and prudent, Goats, ofen, don't fall in the category of
impulsive shoppers. Both male and female Goats are patent shopping
companions, and when in mood, they themselves don't mind spending
hours or even days (for bigger purchases) huntng for just the 'right'
thing. That's exactly what happens when it comes to bagging their 'mean
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

machine' - expect a Goat to create so much fuss that you'll be tred and
bored. But, the end result will be so spectacular that you'll be lef
jealous! However, on most other occasions, a Cappy is too caught up
with his/ her work to bother slotng a separate tme for shopping, so
shopping becomes an extension of day's work! In the jewellery
department, the emphasis is on the minimal. Their love for traditon
makes them go for tmelessly classic or ethnic pieces, and yet it's always
elegant.
Aquarius: Ironically stubborn yet pliable, Aquarius natves are, ofen,
careful about their appearance. They like to keep themselves toned and
agile, and that's quite possible given their natural charm and poise.
However, what they really need is some more discipline and dedicaton
towards their ftness goals. Add some mental/ intellectual stmulaton to
their ftness routne, and see them stcking to it like bees to honey!
Mental health is as important to them as physical well-being. So,
actvites like Yoga and Pilates fnd favour with these free-birds. Also,
anything that holds a humanitarian cause catches their interest like
nothing else does. Charity walks, marathons and team sports are
preferred, and so are adventurous sports like snowboarding, wind
surfng, sky diving or bungee jumping.
Aquarius is, by far, the best Sun Sign to shop with. Not short on ideas
and opinions, Water-Bearers like to go the whole hog, whenever they
decide to shop! Their distnct style of dressing rather, abstract and ofbeat shall also give you many shopping ideas. So, dont hesitate in
taking them along they may appear too ted up/ self-centred initally
but, ofen, you won't regret their company. When it comes to jewellery,
they like to be close to the nature. So, precious stones, shells, cowries
and pearls are preferred, and so are precious, gleaming metals. And,
that's exactly how they also like to keep their auto-mobiles glistening
and shimmering! Quite possessive about their dream machine, they are
proud of their possession, and would love to faunt it.
Pisces: Most Fish have a tendency to be quite laid-back, so they need a
'real' push to 'exercise'. However, since most of them are quite
appearance-conscious, they would eventually do something or other for
their ftness. Fascinated by the waves of sparkling water, Pisces natves
wish to be close to water bodies for long hours. And, if that water-body
is a sea, nothing like it! Hence, besides regular work-out sessions at the
gym, a Pisces natve may ofen be spoted at the pool-side/ sea-shore, as
swimming or aqua-aerobics shall turn out to be the most pleasurable
ways to burn calories for him/her. Most Fish adore the sensuality of
warm water, of foatng and gliding through currents. And, this is evident
from their special preference for water sports like water skiing, river
rafing and deep-sea diving.

When it comes to shopping, impulsive is the word that best describes a


Pisces natve. They love to shop and gif, and are ofen quick to pick up
items that appeal to their eyes. Nothing run-of-the-mill would be
allowed to enter a Pisces domain, though. They are quite selectve that
way, and prefer to collect exquisite objects. Like, if it's about jewellery,
gold rules all the way! Whether it's a trinket or a fnely carved neckpiece, the gleam of gold with, maybe, a touch of their favourite blue
precious stones, will be evident! As for their choice of auto-mobiles, not
much can be said. They ofen tend to keep their vehicle, whichever one
they have, neglected, and would not send it in wash or repair unless
extremely necessary!

Decoding Taurus
Earthy Taurus, the second Sign of the Zodiac, is a practcal, reliable and
headstrong Sign much like its symbol Bull. That doesn't imply, though,
that Bulls don't have a sofer side to them. Capable of being fercely
loyal and supremely afectonate, Bulls are, ofen, good only when they
want to, and with only whom they want to! Their element earth makes
them stable and cautous, but don't you dare underestmate them. They
know when and how to have fun, even if it means throwing cauton to
the winds.
However, more commonly, Bulls love their routne - security being a
major need for them and food a part of their security net, almost
always! Change is a difcult propositon for most Bulls. They are ofen
viewed by others as fxed and infexible - which they are - but not when
it comes to their relatonships and good things in life. Elegant and
methodical, Bulls become sensual, loving creatures in love, and are very
receptve to tactle stmulaton. Ironically, here too there is a problem of
excess. Bulls have a marked jealous and possessive streak. And, it pays to
be aware of the famous Bull-anger - silent and slow in brewing, but
thunderous when unleashed!
The Bulls being Bulls, naturally love as much acton as their preceding
sign - the Ram/ Aries. However, here lies a catch. Taurus, unlike Aries,
are not in love with the concept of 'acton'. Bulls aim at, and prefer
actons/ events that are productve, and are likely to have promising end
results along with good monetary returns. If the event is not practcal
enough and if they feel that it is not good value for money, they might
not even bother about it. So, all in all, Bulls don't lose the sight and focus
of their fnal goal, and fruitul it has to be, throughout the entre actvity.
Needless to say that they believe in fnishing what they begin, or how
would they get the fruits of their labour!
People born with Taurus as their Sun Sign are ofen talented and skilled.
Their power to convert ideas and thoughts into actons, for themselves
as well as others, tends to be their forte. Generally, not very inventve
themselves, Bulls are beter at taking/ adaptng ideas or inventons from
others, and polishing them, making them more valuable and adding
fnesse to all of it. No wonder, the practcal Bulls tend to be great
managers. Due to their same quality, the Bulls themselves are hesitant
to begin new projects. But, once they get started on a project, they will
stop only when they accomplish it. In short, once their goal is
determined, they are unstoppable.
The Bulls dislike change whether it is in their surroundings or their
routne. Also, they have certain fxed ideas, and it is difcult for them to
change their minds. Perhaps, this is the reason why they are considered
to be stubborn, conservatve and even rigid or immovable. But these
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

35

characteristcs sometmes work in their favour. For instance, when a


building is being constructed, the base needs to be made sturdy, stable
and immovable. Similarly, with these characteristcs, the Bulls can build a
strong support system for the society.
As the Bulls dislike change, it is obvious that they love a fxed routne,
and clearly defned tasks in their daily life. It's like that they possess an
imaginary tmer that keeps tcking in their head, which helps them take
care of their routne actvites in a perfect way! However, chances of
errors and confusion are greatly enhanced, when and if there is even a
small change in this set-patern. Probably that's why many Bulls are
blamed for not being spontaneous! This inability to react properly and
spontaneously as per the situaton's demand may make them feel
uncomfortable. Perfectonists they are, such errors and mistakes may
disappoint them greatly.
The Bulls like to move at their own pace and that tends to be relatvely
slow. Their thinking process may too become slow at tmes. But don't
ever doubt their intellectual capability and ability to deal with problems
Bulls are not only quite smart and shrewd, but are also knowledgeable.
However, they have a habit of chewing over ideas, and hence they take
their own sweet tme to accept and act upon them. And, they like to be
lef to their own devices, when they are ruminatng. If you interfere with
their freedom, especially at this tme, they are sure to get irritated and
annoyed. And, what can be more dangerous than a fuming Bull!
The Bulls in Professional and Public Domain
Most Taurus natves are simple and down-to-earth, and they like to be
surrounded by people who are straightorward, unconventonal and
innovatve. They appreciate original and creatve ideas of their superiors,
who also, ofen, happen to be their role-models. Bulls admire intellect,
power, prestge, money and status, and hence look up to people with
strong social and politcal background and awareness. Somewhere in
their heart, they wish to become like them. But, only afer they have
achieved all the comforts and security they desire in life.
Metculous and assiduous, Bulls are also clever and street-smart when it
comes to business. Laziness is not a quality you would associate with
them ever, and a Bull will not even appreciate you doing this, for they
are proud of their hard-work and consistence. Their co-workers, bosses
and even friends value them for their business-like approach to all
practcal maters.
Blessed with an eye for detail and unwavering focus on profts, Bulls are
ofen apt at making remarkable progress and succeeding in business.
Always circumspect, the Bulls avoid taking risks. And thus, as already
said, Taurus natves can become good managers and supervisors, and
they can carry out their responsibilites gracefully and dexterously. Here
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

36

too, concentratng on the nity grites and insistng on perfecton are the
qualites that work in their favour.
Their element Earth also ensures that Bulls remain rooted to reality,
ratonality and practcality. And, business, money maters and ability to
handle one's profession well are all realistc demands of any lifestyle.
The fact that Bulls do well in business and trade actvites related to land,
farming or agriculture further afrms their connecton with the element
Earth.
All in all, the Bulls prefer a career or professional life with good income
or money over social prestge and esteem. This feature becomes more
powerful, especially if there is nothing in the Bull's personal birth chart
that modifes it.
The Bulls in Financial and Money Maters
The Bulls always like to be sound and secure on the fnancial front.
According to them money talks and it is one of the top priorites in their
lives. The Bulls are among those who are conscious about their fnancial
status and stability. For them wealth is tangible, and they are happy and
content only when they can touch and feel it. This motve is enough for
them to take up a profession related to real estate or agricultural
industries. Truly the Earth's child, the Bull may eventually end up owning
a piece of land for investment and fnancial security. Incidentally,
owning a piece of land meant being wealthy in the bygone days. The
Bulls stll feel their ancient connecton to the Earth.
The Bulls are aware of the fact that intelligence and efectve
communicaton skills are the two most important steps to acquire
wealth and fortune. Had it not been for money and material success, the
Bulls would have never gone that extra mile to gain knowledge.
This does not mean that the Bulls try short-cuts to live their dreams.
They are sincere and hard-working people. Whatever they achieve is
through dedicaton and determinaton, and they will never put their
hard-earned money at risk. Surprisingly, the stars too shower their
blessings upon them and the Bulls ofen get lucky at lucky draws, game
shows and quizzes.
The Bulls in the Maters of Heart and Interpersonal Relatonships
If you are in love with a person with Sun sign Taurus, make sure you are
commited to him/her. Their love is unconditonal and they expect the
same in return. For them the terms and conditons of a relatonship
need to be clearly defned. Infdelity is a strict no-no, as they themselves
are faithful and loyal lovers and expect their partner to reciprocate. If
they discover that they are being cheated, their world of dreams comes
crashing down. The Bulls are possessive lovers and this makes them
prone to jealousy and insecurity. Perhaps, this is the reason why they
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

37

take charge and dominate their partners at some point in tme. This may
cause fricton between the Bull and his/her partner. But, it's difcult to
make them realise that people cannot be controlled like that.
It's just love that they long for. If you are romantcally involved with a
Bull, you need not impress them with expensive gifs and luxurious
treatments. Simple things like spending quality tme, watching a flm or
going for a candle-lit dinner will make them feel happy and content.
What they enjoy the most is their partner's company. All you need to do
to maintain a successful relatonship with a Bull is to provide security
and comfort. And it's a promise that this bond will last a life tme!
The Bulls in the Maters of Home and Domestcity
The Bulls are dreamers! They dream about swanky abodes, plush dcor
and luxury that they like to show of. Their world revolves around their
beautful castle, and so, putng in all their creatvity, they try to make it
the best place! And yes, they don't forget to add the love and care which
makes their house a 'home'. They are family oriented and they love
children. Being nature lovers, they like to dwell near the country-side. If
it is not practcally feasible, they decide to go on a holiday to a serene
and secluded place, at least once a year. They may even plan to setle
down at one such place afer their retrement.
The Bulls are great hosts. They will surely live up to your expectatons by
making you feel comfortable and ofering good food, lavish
entertainment and royal treatment. They like to be treated well by their
hosts and thus know how to treat their guests. The Bulls are proud
owners of their possessions and they like to show you around their small
world and even boast about it. Afer all, it gives them satsfacton and
pleasure!
The Bulls are strict parents. Although they love their children a lot, they
treat them as a possession. But, they never compromise on the
upbringing of their kids they will be disciplined and their needs will be
very well taken care of. However, in case their kids try to take a break
from the fxed daily routne, which the Bulls love to follow, the kids will
surely have a tough tme. But, all in all, they are afectonate parents!

Zodiac Design Sensibilities


Home Design Sensibilites of Taurus
The Taurus is ofen deeply atached to his/ her material possessions. This
zodiac sign is inherently focused on the physical and material sphere.
Hence, the Bull's home, while always being a cosy retreat, is also a
worthwhile investment and status symbol. Comfort, luxury and stability
feature high in home planning. And, thanks to Venus, Taurus' ruling
planet, aesthetcs too don't lag behind interior designing and
architectural sensibilites come easily to the Bulls.
Ofen, the dominant impression in a self-indulgent home of a Taurus is
of rest, relaxaton, beauty and deep contentment. And, not to be missed
are the tmeless elegance and rooted in tme unhurried ways. Cold, stark
interiors won't fnd favour here. Taurus people like to add plush, warmth
inducing upholstery, drapes and furniture to their homes. King-sized
beds, beautful bed-covers, traditonal yet super-comfy sofa sets,
modern lazy-boys, huge gadgets suited to a palace, and English bath
tubs are common in their homes, given the money is not a constraint.
Bulls love gardening and plants, fowers and trees, thanks to their zodiac
element - Earth. Flowering and ornamental plants too feature here, and
may nicely be lined along the home entrance or the garden wall. The
doors to a Taurean's abode tend to be strong and imposing. Security and
durability rule. A big wooden door with an old-world charm to it, but
with an ultra-modern locking mechanism, is what you will come across.
When it comes to the materials and fnishes for interiors, emphasis has
to be on natural and warm elements. Being a tactle and sensual sign,
Bulls love mixing myriad textures. Rich velvets, satn, delicate silks,
dobby, jacquard, woven fabrics, sof wool, lavish piles and towelling, all
gel well with their sensibilites. Luxurious aged leather is another
possibility. Besides, foral paterns, whites and pastels are also preferred.
It would be important to note that the zodiac sign Taurus is astrologically
associated with carpets and carpeted foors. Alternatvely, natural stone,
wood, smooth marble/ granite fnishes shall also do well for Taurus'
home. Anything that boosts the warm cosiness is favoured, in short.
Same goes for the lightng. Sof, romantc lightng that will not only add
character to their home, but will also boost the restul atmosphere is
apt.
The bedroom in the Bull's house will efortlessly mirror all that is truly
Taurus. Their love for sleep and warm relaxaton, and their preference
for beauty and luxury fnd a fne blend in this repose. Besides, the Venus
will ensure that love features high on this room's agenda! So, a huge bed
with a sof matress, the sofest bed-linen in pinks and pastels, a
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

39

voluminous duvet, large pillows and extra cushions will fnd a place of
pride in this room.
Taurus natves love food good, gourmet food at that! So, kitchen in a
Bull's home holds a place of pride. Most Taurus natves tend to be
connoisseurs of excellent food, while there are some who are very very
conservatve in their choices. Richly coloured wood should be used for
surfaces and stone or clay for the foors. A big cooking range, a chimney,
a wine-cellar or cupboard, besides adding an old-world charm, shall add
to the overall warmth.
Most Bulls love being pampered, and are devout me-tme enthusiasts.
Thus, bathroom in their home ought to be more than good. Huge bath
tubs, luxurious fnishes, expensive aroma oils in foral fragrances, a thick
bathrobe, huge, deep-pile towels stone foors to absorb cold and
covered windows will do the trick here. On a closing note, never forget
the importance of storage space, especially for food, in a Bull's home!

The World in 2015

Saturn, Rahu and Jupiter to bring


mixed results for the world at large
in 2015
If the year 2014 was eventul, marked by mysterious tragedies, celebrity
deaths, civil uproars and politcal upheavals, the year 2015 too promises
to be no less eventul, indicate the stars.
Yet, before we move ahead and try to understand what Ganesha has to
say about the future of world in 2015, let's look back and refect and
see what were the major events of 2014.
2014 a quick summary
The mysterious disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370
lef the world stunned and shocked fshing for links, groping
for details but to no avail for an agonisingly long tme!
The Ukrainian parliament voted to remove President Viktor
Yanukovych from ofce, replacing him with Oleksandr
Turchynov, afer days of civil unrest lef around 100 people
dead in Kiev on February 22. Later, on March 21, Russia
formally annexed Crimea afer President Vladimir Putn signed
a bill fnalising the annexaton process, incurring worldwide
condemnaton.
The death of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the Colombian Nobel
Prize winning writer.
India's BJP's leader Narendra Modi took over as the Prime
Minister of the country, afer a humiliatng defeat for India's
oldest and once-strongest politcal party Indian Natonal
Congress.
Belgium became the frst country in the world to legalise
euthanasia for terminally ill patents of any age.
The situaton in Iraq went from bad to worse as the inside
diferences came to open, and the civil situaton intensifed to a
great extent.
The aforementoned events are just a glimpse, and the year 2014 in

GaneshaSpeaks.com |

42

itself was a huge saga, too big to be put in words here.


Let's now, quickly take a look at the major events stacked up for the
year 2015.
Some of the major events expected/ scheduled for 2015 are:

The Eurasian Economic Union will come into efect.

The 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup will be hosted in Canada.

If stll reigning, Queen Elizabeth II will surpass Queen Victoria


as Britain's longest-reigning monarch on September 10.

Cloud computng may contribute to the creaton of two million


computerised jobs worldwide.

Major movie sequels are scheduled to release, such as


Cinderella, The Avengers 2, Jurassic World, Terminator 5,
Independence Day 2 and James Bond 24.

2015 Cricket World Cup will be held in February to be hosted


jointly by Australia and New Zealand.

The Large Hadron Collider is expected to reach its maximum


operatng power in its search for the God Partcle.

Windows 9 is expected to be released by Microsof.

The frst self-regulatng artfcial heart is expected to become


commercially available within the European Union, priced
between 140,000 and 180,000 Euros.

Well, all these and many more events may be in the ofng, yet it always
pays to consult the stars. Thus, Ganesha took the help of Vedic Astrology
to predict the way ahead for the World in 2015.
Ganesha looks at the year ahead from the Vedic Astrology perspectve:
Saturn will remain in Scorpio, and Rahu will remain in the Zodiac Sign
Virgo during the entre year 2015. Jupiter will be passing through Cancer,
during the frst half, while it will transit through Leo, during the later
half of 2015.
Solar eclipses on March 20th 2015 and September 13th 2015, and the
Lunar eclipses on April 04th 2015 and September 28th 2015 will also
have an impact on the overall world afairs.

The strong, turbulent energy of Saturn indicates alliances between some


of the most powerful criminal groups with politcal establishments - in
corrupt, unstable and economically fragile or failing countries. It is a
likelihood that the mafa or the criminal groups will co-operate with the
rebel politcal movements to control substantal and important
geographic areas. This also indicates treachery in politcal afairs.
Rahu in the Sign ruled by Mercury indicates that terrorist tactcs will
become highly sophistcated, and may spread mayhem. There will be
growing threat of biological and chemical weapons.
However, the exalted Jupiter will be aspectng Saturn during the frst half
of the year, which indicates people's associaton with the higher mind,
philosophy, truth and religion. Jupiter's benefc efect will, thus, bring
new and positve structural developments in economics, science and
internatonal relatons.
This planetary aspect may also help disclose/ open the tes between
politcians and criminals, and may cause the downfall of criminals/
wrong people in positons of power. Great beneft will eventually come
to the world through secret and sacred channels. Computer and
communicaton technology too will witness revolutonary expansion, in
the process.
Countries like Syria, Iraq, Israel, Russia, Afghanistan, Nigeria will remain
the focal point of the events taking place. Turkey will be facing problems
on its border with Syria. Jerusalem too may be facing turmoil. Spain will
face domestc problems, partcularly on the issue of Catalonia. Australia,
South Africa and North Africa will be facing various internal and external
issues.
Saturn may also adversely afect the public health and issues related to
hygiene. Rising polluton may bring out some serious diseases. Polluton
of water and air, as well as the scarcity of water will become a big issue.
At the same tme, research in the feld of genetcally modifed crops may
help improve nutriton among the world's malnourished people. Also,
there will be encouraging advancement in the areas of vaccines to cure
Cancer, AIDS and other hazardous/feared diseases.
Sports will take a more compettve and lucratve face, becoming a
choice opton for youngsters. There will be huge advancement in
training techniques, and new technologies may be implemented to
increase efciency and productvity. However, the increased use of
performance enhancing drugs may remain a cause of concern for sports
authorites.

New Zealand and Mauritus will fnd growth in fnance, economy,
business and trading sectors.
France, Italy, Sicily and Romania will fnd some positve movements in
their economy, once Jupiter enters Leo from 14/07/2015 onwards.
Well, so far Ganesha has talked about the positve planets. What about
the harsh ones? Let's shif focus on the transits of Saturn, Rahu and
Ketu. Ganesha predicts that these three planets are likely to afect the
world in a negatve manner in 2015.
Saturn will be transitng in a direct moton at the beginning of the year
2015, and then it will be moving in a retrograde moton during the
period between 15/03/2015 to 03/08/2015. While Saturn is in the
retrograde moton, countries like Moracco, Brazil and Norway will fnd
growth and success, if they put in enough eforts.
Since Rahu will be in Virgo, the countries like Turkey, West Indies, Greece
and regions like California and Virginia in the U.S. may fnd growth. But,
their development and growth may only be illusionary.

Ketu will be in Pisces during 2015, and therefore, the countries like
Portugal, Egypt and Spain will have to struggle and compromise at
certain stages.
Overall, the transitng Jupiter will have a major impact on the world.
However, a country's Kundali needs to be checked to know what may be
the actual efect of this transit.

India in 2015

Development amidst numerous


roadblocks, and probably a landmark
year, foresees Ganesha for India in
2015.
The sovereign, secular, democratc republic of India, the world's 7th
largest naton in terms of geographical area and the world's biggest
democracy, had a prety eventul tme in 2014. With a new government
taking stage at the centre amidst a sweeping majority in the Lok Sabha
polls, a new order taking shape and a new way of democratc, public
rising, things sure took a huge turn from the tme and age of the dynasty
politcs and sleeping democracy. And although, there stll is a long long
way to go, the change surely seems like a harbinger of good things.
Overall, the events, good, bad and neutral, which took place in the last
one year in India or in the Indian context, are too many to be put in the
words. The issues are many and worries countless!
Infaton rates and fnancial upheavals require a careful monitoring; the
disaster management, food security, women safety and child care stll
have to go a long way; the rising populaton and the low rate of
educaton, poverty, seasonal agriculture, the contnuing struggle with
the arch-rivals and other age old problems the country has faced since
forever are stll to be dealt with; the power shortage, the tumultuous
industry, unemployment, the fscal defcit, the natonal security and
rising corrupton are some of the few areas needing careful atenton.

And, the saga contnues..


Yet, there always is a hope for a beter, a more glorious tomorrow. And,
in the same quest we consulted the stars and planets to bring you an
overview of what lies ahead for this colourful and mult-cultural naton.
Read on to know what Ganesha foresees for India in the year 2015.
Independent India's Chart

The General, Politcal and Defence scenario in India in 2015


In Independent India's Foundaton Chart, the Sun-Venus Dasha period
will be in force tll 10th September 2015. It is the last Antardasha for
India in the Sun Mahadasha. So, it may be surmised that India will be
passing through one of the most decisive periods - in its contemporary
history during the year 2015.
The transitng Jupiter will be passing through the 3rd House of India's
Horoscope, over the Ascendant Lord Venus, which may bring positvity
and enthusiasm. But at the same tme, it will be difcult for the new
government to fulfll the sky high expectatons of the citzens of India.
The Indian government may bring in some tough legislaton, which,
however, will be appreciated by the citzens. Some strong unorthodox
decisions may also be expected, during year 2015.
The period between March and September 2015 will also be very actve
politcally. The government may face stf resistance and challenges from
the politcal partes in oppositon. Also, at the same tme, some religious
groups may try to defame the government at the centre.
Jupiter's infuence will bring many revolutonary changes to India's
infrastructure and energy sector. The government will work towards the
development of good infrastructure, partcularly towards road
transportaton, aviaton, communicaton and Railways.
Lesser government interventon in many areas of business is likely in the

47

forthcoming tmes. The progressive policies by the Indian government,


meant for the Indian entrepreneurs are expected to boost overall
growth. There will be more job opportunites for the Indian youth.
While, strict measures will be taken to curb the infaton and corrupton.
However, infaton may remain a cause of concern for the government of
India.
This government may have zero tolerance towards terrorism and
extremism, but some foreign conspiracies and Naxal problems will
contnue to disrupt the law and order situatons in India, suggest the
stars. Reforms in Natonal Security Council and intelligence agencies will
be implemented to deal with the internal and external threats, though.
The government will also empower the Indian Defence forces. There will
be problems in the borders states, and the government will have to face
problems in dealing with the issues related to Bangladeshi migrants. The
religious and sensitve issues like Ram Janma-bhumi may resurface,
during the later half of the year 2015, causing some unrest.
Nonetheless, the planetary indicatons show that India will take some
bold steps to establish its authority in Southern Asia. And, India will also
take steps to strengthen its tes with the SAARC countries. India will
initate dialogue with its neighbouring countries for more robust and
substantal partnerships. However, fundamentalist elements may
contnue to impede the process.
China and Pakistan may appear to cooperate, but they may not allow
India to ascend the power-trajectory, and are thus, likely to impede the
process, by one way or the other. India's relatons with Pakistan and
China will remain contentous. India and USA will work for substantal
strategic partnerships. However, the United States' intentons will
remain ambiguous and maybe, even contentous, at tmes. A radical
transformaton in Indias military capabilites and higher defence
structure may make India's foreign policy more robust, though.

Business, Trade, Finance and


Economy for India in 2015
As per the tenets of Vedic Astrology and the general planetary scenario,
at the beginning of the year 2015, the powerful planet Jupiter will be
transitng in a retrograde moton in Cancer, while the shadow planet
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

48

Rahu will be in Virgo, and Ketu will be in the Zodiac Sign Pisces. The strict
Saturn will be transitng in Scoprio, at the beginning of 2015. All these
planetary transits will have a signifcant impact on India and its various
sectors in 2015.
The Positves
Ganesha notes that Jupiter will be in retrogression from the beginning of
the year to 09/04/2015. Afer 09/04/2015, however, Jupiter will start to
move in a direct moton in Cancer, which shall tll 13/07/2015. During
this period, it will transit over the Natal Mercury-Moon-Saturn-Venus
and Sun in Independent India's Birth Chart. All these planets will gain
signifcant strength, because of the Jupiter's transit.
Also, Jupiter's movement in the 3rd House in Independent India's Chart
will bring beter opportunites for the natonal and internatonal
transportaton sector. The privatsaton of the Indian railways is also
possible at this tme. The postal department may be revamped and new
facilites are likely to be added. New gadgets are likely to be invented in
the telecommunicatons sector - it may almost be like a revoluton. New
MNCs (Mult Natonal Companies) are also likely to enter the print media
sector. There may be new players in the courier services, which will force
the existng players in this partcular sector to ofer beter services to
their customers, if they are to survive the competton.
Afer the said period (that is afer 13/07/2015), Jupiter will enter the
Zodiac Sign Leo from 14/07/2015 onwards. By this movement, Jupiter
shall impart its strength to the 4th House in India's Personal Kundali.
Naturally, this will enhance the agricultural growth and infrastructural
development, as the 4th House signifes real estate, agriculture, land etc.
in a naton's Chart.
At this tme, the rules and regulatons related to mines' business may
also be made beter. There will also be a signifcant growth in the
automobile industry, thanks to this transit. New cars and vehicles may be
introduced in the market. There may also be some new products coming
up in the petroleum sector. Jupiter's transit in the 4th House shall also
aid growth in the sectors like animal husbandry. As a result, there may
be positve movements in the producton of dairy products.
The Down-side
Now, Ganesha analyses the movements of the negatve planets aligned
for the year 2015, and puts forth his analysis for the same.
He notes that Saturn will be transitng in direct moton in the Zodiac Sign
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

49

Scorpio at the beginning of the year 2015. Then, during 15/03/2015 to


03/08/2015, Saturn will be transitng in a retrograde moton over India's
Natal Ketu, and that too through the 7th House of this Chart.
The 7th House generally signifes partnerships, relatonships and bonds.
As a result, the ruling party in India may have to face strong oppositon
from its rivals. Enemy countries may also pose some challenges to India
and its security. The Indian government may have to make some
alteratons in the foreign policy, owing to the increasing conficts with
some countries. Also, since Ketu is in Pisces too, India will not get as
much support from its friends as expected.
Also, during the year 2015, Rahu will be in Virgo, so you may also expect
some volatlity in the stock-market.
Certain turn of events or policies in the educaton sector may disappoint
the students or academic aspirants on one or more levels. Mutual funds
sector will also encounter some unexpected changes.
In a nutshell, Ganesha feels that policies and strategies need to be made
with complete diligence and full awareness about the circumstances, if
the Indian government wishes to make the most of the Jupiter's positve
transit through its Sign of exaltaton Cancer, and later via Leo.

Bollywood Hollywood - 2015


The year 2015 promises to be high and super- excitng on the
entertainment scene too. And, the flm world shall be, as always,
bringing to screens some happy, some sad, some crazy, some mad
dramas, thrillers, mysteries and more.
The Indian flm industry, the inimitable Bollywood shall have some aces
up its sleeve. Which would be they? And, more importantly, how will be
they? Raees featuring Shahrukh Khan, Sonam Kapoor and Farhan Akhtar
in the lead roles is one of the most antcipated movies of 2015, and so is
Fan, again featuring the King Khan. Prem Ratan Dhan Payo - starring
Salman Khan and Deepika Padukone shall be another hot-in-the wait-list.
The year 2015 shall also see the sequels of two super hit Hindi flms
the Sallu Bhai starrer Judwaa 2, and India's frst modern day claim to scif, Mr. India's sequel.
The year 2015 also seems promising for the bigger, internatonal level

to some of the most popular and known movies are slated to be


released in 2015, including the adrenaline ramping Fast and the Furious
7, Mission: Impossible V, Jurassic World, Batman vs. Superman, The
Smurfs 3, Terminator: Genesis, Ted 2, James Bond 24 and more.
Well, that's prety impressive, but what do the stars portend for the flm
industry in general? Let's see.
The Signifcant Planetary Positons in 2015
During the year 2015, Saturn will be in Scorpio, while Rahu and Ketu will
be on the Virgo-Pisces axis. Jupiter will be transitng through Cancer in
the frst half of the year, and during the second half of the year 2015, it
will be transitng through Leo. Neptune will maintain its positon in
Aquarius.
In view of the afore-said planetary positons, Ganesha feels that upto
July 2015, there may not be much ground-breaking taking place on the
flm entertainment scene that is, there may not be major blockbusters
or supremely crafed flms getng released or made tll this tme.
However, as soon as Jupiter enters the Zodiac Sign Leo, and forms an
Oppositon aspect with the transitng Neptune, we will surely get to see
a furry of movies with newer concepts, novel ideas and experimental
themes. The investment behind producing good movies or good
concepts is also likely to increase afer July 2015.
For Hollywood too, the second half of the year 2015 looks set to be
superb. More flms with Sci-Fi concepts are likely to be released during
2015. New producers and directors with fresh concepts are likely to
emerge too.
Ganesha feels that Hollywood is also going to adapt or introduce new
movie-making methods in 2015. Overall, there will be a positve change
in the flm industry. We will also see new stars rising on the horizon, and
shining in the Hollywood industry. Acton and technology will go hand in
hand with comedy in Hollywood which implies that the flms released
will be a good mix of various genres.
With Jupiter-Neptune oppositon in the second half of the year, and
considering other planetary positons during 2015, Ganesha feels that
for the music industry too things shall be on a change mode but, the
change will be of a largely pleasant nature. We will see a plenty of
people collaboratng with each other or companies joining hands to
bring interestng stuf for the audiences. Due to these combined eforts,
major live shows and concerts in the feld of music (internatonally) may

Eclipses in 2015 and Climate-related


efects
Eclipses in 2015
There will be a total of four eclipses in the year 2015 2 Lunar Eclipses,
1 total Solar Eclipse and 1 partal Solar Eclipse. Besides the astrophysical

may be in 2015 Total Lunar Eclipse April 04 2015 (GMT 7:45)
As per Ganesha's view, several malefc efects can be noted around the
locatons of Tropic of Cancer, around this tme. Plus, some parts of South
Axis, Eastern America and Australia are also likely to get afected. These
locatons may also notce some inconsistent air pressure, and may get
afected by storms. Some coastal zones of Pacifc Ocean may notce
heavy moisture and windy spells; there may also be heavy weather
fuctuatons in these areas. Some parts of South Asia may also
experience pre-monsoon rainfall at this tme.

Major Countries' Predictons 2015

USA in 2015 What do the stars


indicate?
Think of America and the names of some of the most well known and
celebrated human beings to have walked the earth pop up in the mind:
Albert Einstein; Abraham Lincoln; Neil Armstrong; Martn Luther King;
George Washington; Elvis Presley; Thomas Edison; Walt Disney; Henry
Ford; Muhammad Ali; Mark Twain; Ralph Waldo Emerson; Robert Frost
you name a feld, and you will fnd an American who has graced the
highest echelons of it. It is not for nothing that the USA is the numero
uno naton of the world. The Spanish-American War and World War I
confrmed America's status as a global military power, while the World
War II confrmed the country's status as a global superpower. The end of
the Cold War and the dissoluton of the Soviet Union in 1991 lef the
United States as the sole superpower of the world, both in military and
economic terms.
The USA has the world's largest economy with an estmated GDP in 2013
of $16.8 trillion, which is 23% of the global GDP. The economy is driven
by an abundance of natural resources and high worker productvity.
From Lee Iacoca to Bill Gates with a Steve Jobs/ Mark Zuckerberg thrown
in between, the country has produced the greatest business brains. But,
now it is becoming increasingly difcult for even the US to maintain its
positon at the helm what with intense competton from emerging
markets such as China and India, and a rising threat from global issues
like terrorism, rising infaton, economic discrepancies, unemployment,
security threats and more.
What does the year 2015 have in store for the United States of America?
Will it be able to maintain its positon at the top of the world? Ganesha
fnds out by looking at the Horoscope of the US.
Astrological Analysis
Five most infuental historical events in the US have been taken into

the formaton of the country, such as the Artcles of Associaton in 1774,


the Declaraton of Independence in 1776, the Artcles of Confederaton
and Perpetual Union in 1781 and the US Consttuton in 1787 have been
examined in minute detail for their signifcance, legality and tming while
drawing this Chart
Looking at USA's Horoscope, Ganesha observes that it has Leo rising
Ascendant at 18:02:16 degrees in Purvafalguni constellaton Pada-2. The
Lord of the Ascendant is in conjuncton with US's Natal Jupiter, Venus
and Mars in the 11th House. The Moon is posited in the Horoscope's 7th
House at 01:42:40 degrees. Mercury and Pluto are natally in a
retrograde mode, says Ganesha. Saturn is posited in the 2nd House,
whereas Rahu is posited in the 12th House. From these Charts, it can be
said that USA is born under the Mahadasha of Mars-Mars-Mercury.
What Next?
At the beginning of the year, the mighty Jupiter will be transitng in
retrograde moton in Cancer. Retrograde Jupiter will start moving in
direct moton afer 09/04/2015. This transit will contnue tll 13/07/2015
in the 12th House, which is the House of Loss. Due to this transit, the
natonal liability of the USA may decrease and there shall be
considerable improvement in the medical, health-care and civil services.
Post 14/07/2015, Jupiter will be transitng through the Zodiac Sign Leo.
In 2015, it is likely that USA will enter into new contracts under the
infuence of Jupiter's transit in Leo. According to Ganesha, these
contracts will give the country long-term benefts.
Talking about other planets, Ganesha says that Rahu will be transitng
through the Finance House in USA's Horoscope, for a beter part of
2015. This partcular transit will directly afect currency and bank sector.
Thus, the country's economic growth may also get indirectly afected.
Plus, Saturn in Scorpio in the 4th House in 2015 may slow down
agricultural and infrastructural growth and even the progress in the
automobile industry. The Horoscope also indicates the possibility of
volcano irrupton and/or earthquake in 2015, says Ganesha.
In a nutshell, Ganesha says that the year 2015 may bring a mixed bag
of fortunes for the USA.

Three Cs of cooperation, competition


and confrontation can be expected
from the big C China in the year
2015, portend the stars.
With world's largest populaton (over 1.35 billion people) and the
second-largest area space, the People's Republic of China is one of the
strongest, emerging threats to the US's superpower status. Founded in
1949, China was a Soviet-style union centrally controlled country under
the dispensaton of its autocratc leader Mao Zedong. But afer his death
in the year 1976, his successor Deng Xiaoping unleashed a series of
liberalisaton measures, which led to a mercurial development of the
country's economy, so much so that today the chances are when you
pick up a product and look at its manufacturing details, you are most
likely to fnd Made in China stamped on it.
1st October, 1949

Peking, China

According to the Internatonal Monetary Fund, China's average GDP


growth between 2001 and 2010 was a phenomenal 10.5%. Along with
economic growth, China has also maintained a high military growth, and
is one of the strongest nuclear powers in the world. However, it is also
looked upon as one of the more aggressive countries in the world. Apart
from its border skirmishes with India in the North-East, China is also
getng increasingly embroiled in maritme disputes across Asia,
partcularly with Vietnam and the Philippines over the South China Sea

GaneshaSpeaks.com |

55

and with Japan over the East China Sea.


Ganesha with the help of Vedic Astrology tries to analyse whether China
will be able to sustain its high growth, keep the peace and manage to
dethrone US as the world's superpower in 2015. Also, China is India's
one of the most powerful neighbours, and one of the strongest natons
in Asia. Ganesha also takes a look at this aspect, and predicts how will
this turn out in the year 2015.
China is currently under the infuence of Saturn Mahadasha and Rahu
Bhukt. Saturn is placed in the 8th House and Rahu is in the 3rd House of
China's Horoscope.
So, the hidden faws in Chinas fnancial and social structure are likely to
surface unexpectedly during year 2015. Bribery and corrupton may
impede fair competton. Labour abuse may also remain endemic to
Chinas development process. To negate these issues, Chinese
authorites may take steps to strengthen their labour laws and curb
corrupton. However, discontent within the Chinese workforce will
become quite visible during the year 2015.
The transitng Rahu will be passing through the 9th House over China's
Natal Sun. So, the Chinese government will be under fair pressure to
sustain the growth they have achieved so far. They might focus on the
structural reforms of its environment, socio-economic and governance
policies. Economic growth will be slow and unbalanced in 2015 in China,
feels Ganesha. Problems like rising environmental polluton may also
plague the country. Overall, China will remain anxious in 2015, and it will
have to be prety careful too.
Rahu is placed in the 3rd House of the Foundaton Chart of China. Also,
in 2015 the transitng Jupiter will be passing through the 7th House over
China's Natal Mars. So, the technological development of China's
military will be impressive. The country will be rapidly developing a new
generaton of strategic weapons that could potentally enable them to
become a superpower of Asia. The contest for supremacy between
China and USA is inevitable. Both the countries will try to establish
communicaton links in 2015 too, but relatons will be heading for
confrontaton and competton rather than cooperaton.
China will contnue to take a tough stand on territorial issues in the
South China Sea region, and its disputed claims may remain a cause of
concern for the neighbouring countries.
China and India would be seeking greater engagement on issues of trade

GaneshaSpeaks.com |

56

and regional security during 2015. Both countries will appear to


cooperate with each other, but will also contest for their rightul positon
on the world stage. China will contnually press its claims to pieces of the
Indian Territory, and contnued border disputes may not allow a major
break-through in bilateral relatonship. There will be a bigger window for
concrete improvement in Sino-Indian relatons under the new
government in India, but there is also a bigger window for territorial
competton and confrontaton, feels Ganesha.

UK may face political unrest in the


frst half of 2015, foretells Ganesha
Chart of United Kingdom
Date : April 12, 1927.
Time : 00:00:00
Place : London, England.

Introducton :
The United Kingdom consistng of England, Scotland, Wales and
Northern Ireland has always played a leading role in developing
parliamentary democracy and in promotng literature and science. At its
peak in the 19th century, the Britsh Empire covered a quarter of the
earth's surface. The frst half of the 20th century saw the UK's strength
seriously erode in two World Wars and the Irish Republic's withdrawal
from the union. The second half witnessed the dismantling of the
Empire and the UK rebuilding itself into a modern and prosperous
European country. As one of fve permanent members of the UN
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

57

Security Council and a founding member of NATO and the


Commonwealth, the UK pursues a global approach to foreign policy. The
UK is also an actve member of the European Union, although it chose to
remain outside the Economic and Monetary Union.
Ganesha with the help of Vedic Astrology predicts what is in store for the
United Kingdom in 2015.
Astrological Analysis :
From the beginning of 2015, United Kingdom will be under the
infuence of Saturn Return transit through Ascendant.
Plus, UK will be under the infuence of Saturn and Mercury
Dasha cycle.
During the later half of 2015, benefc Jupiter will be transitng
over Natal Moon through the 10th House.
Ketu, being the signifer of 5th House will be passing over Natal
Sun through the 5th House.
Astrological Predictons:

Ganesha feels that the frst half of the year 2015 may witness a
strong sense of reformist actvism and a rise in rebellious
actvites in the UK.

Organised cyber crimes, inter-cultural groupism, collectve


psychotc outbreaks (maybe against the natonal leadership)
and a rebirth of the general life-style is foreseen, during the
later half of 2015 for the UK.

Retail market in Britain may show a comfortable growth in


2015. Plus, there may not be much fuctuaton in the infaton
rate, confrms Ganesha.

There may, however, be slight increase in the interest rates,


during the frst half of 2015. Housing prices may keep rising
during 2015.

Service sector, industrial segments and exporters will feel more


confdent.

Due to Ketu's transit over the UK's Natal Sun, the frst half of
2015 may remain highly unstable on the politcal and
governmental fronts.

India, Pakistan can look forward to


partial improvement in ties in 2015,
says Ganesha
When Pakistan's Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif atended India's new
Prime Minister Narendra Modi's swearing-in ceremony in June 2014 and
held hastly arranged bilateral talks, it raised hopes that the hostle
relatonship between the two countries will improve. The two
neighbours, sundered at the tme of independence in 1947, have shared
a biter relatonship, marked by wars, strife and terrorism. There have
been atempts at improving tes such as the Shimla, Agra and Lahore
summits but there has been no let up in confict. The atack on the
Indian Parliament in 2001 almost brought the two nuclear powers to the
brink of war, and the 2008 Mumbai atacks perpetrated by Pakistani
militants have severely afected ongoing peace talks. Even though the
two natons share a historic, cultural, ethnic, geographic, and economic
background, there has always been an undercurrent of suspicion on
either side of the border since independence. Whether the Modi
Government will succeed in restoring confdence between the two
natons is a queston that only tme can answer.
Meanwhile, Ganesha, with the help of Vedic Astrology, takes a look at
Pakistan's all-round prospects in the year 2015.

Pakistan is currently passing through the Venus Mahadasha and Mars


Bhukt which will contnue throughout the year 2015. Venus is the Lord

of the 7th House (House of War and Foreign Relatons). Mars is the
Ascendant Lord and prime signifcator of war, strife, violence and also
industrial progress. Mars is placed with 4th House Lord Moon. So, the
year 2015 can be a year of social and economic reforms in Pakistan. The
transitng Jupiter in Cancer also confrms reforms, partcularly land
reforms, in Pakistan. The economy of Pakistan may slowly start
improving.
Pakistan's Army may have lost some of its clout but Mars Bhukt
indicates that the Army's infuence will remain very signifcant in
Pakistan's politcal structure during 2015. Pakistan's Army will suppress
insurgency ruthlessly, but it will create more resentment within the
country due to adverse transit of Rahu. Balochistan province will
contnue to face insurgency problems. And Pakistan will contnue to face
a deeply entrenched terrorist problem.
Pakistan may seek rapprochement with India but fundamentalist
elements will not allow this to happen smoothly. Both India and Pakistan
governments may move cautously to improve relatons. However,
neither country will take any bold steps to resolve sensitve issues like
Kashmir. Pakistan's hostlity towards India will not cease totally, but both
the countries may look forward to temporary concessions and partal
peace.
As the transitng Jupiter is passing through the 4th House, Pakistan will
be seeking to establish good relatons with the United States to improve
its economy. Rifs in the relatonship between the United States and
Pakistan will gradually narrow down. However, US might not contnue to

There will be strain in the bilateral relatonship with Iran, and tensions
on the Iran border may periodically spark crises between Pakistan and
Iran during year 2015.

Turmoil in Russia may continue to be


a threat for the world, predicts
Ganesha.
Hardly about a century ago, Russia was a monarchy ruled by 'Tsars'. The
most important Tsar, Peter I, built St. Petersberg and turned Russia into a
military power. However, Russia sufered greatly in World War I, and a
Communist revoluton occurred in 1917. It was led by Lenin and his
party called the 'Bolsheviks'. The Tsars were overthrown, and the last
Tsar and his family were killed. Russia was then renamed the 'Union of
Soviet Socialist Republics' or USSR, consistng of 'regional councils' that
ran small areas of the country, but all efectve power was held by the
Premier of the 'Politburo' in Moscow. He appointed the heads of the
Soviets and was essentally a dictator. Lenin was the frst Premier. Over
tme, the USSR disintegrated, and Russia lost control of Eastern Europe.
In 1991, a democratc electon was held in the Russian Federaton for the
frst tme, with Boris Yeltsin becoming President. The former superpower
has been in the news in 2014 for supportng pro-Russian supporters in
its neighbouring country Ukraine, which western countries see as a
thinly-veiled atempt to annex control of the country, and an act of
blatant aggression. Several countries, including the US, have threatened
acton, including sanctons, against Russia, but it has remained unfazed.
With last year's horrendous shootng down of MH-17 incident on the
Ukrainian soil, things seemed to be taking a turn for the worse in the
Russian territory.
Russia's Country Chart:

What lies ahead? With the help of Vedic Astrology, Ganesha predicts
that Russia will contnue to remain on tenterhooks during 2015.
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

Russia is currently under the infuence of Rahu-Mercury period. Rahu is


in the 5th House in Russias Chart with Moon and a retrograde Saturn
and in Taurus Navmansa. Mercury is the Lord of 10th House and is
posited in the 5th House from Dashanath Rahu. So, it is likely that Russia
would be willing to take aggressive steps and reassert infuence over its
bordering natons. The transitng Rahu in Virgo during 2015 further
indicates a steady and confrontatonal build-up of military power. It
indicates an imperialistc approach. The Russian authorites will advocate
a strong state and will not care what other countries think about them.
Russia may no longer care about cultvatng tolerable relatons with the
EU natons or about forging a solid relatonship with Ukraine. There will
be no going back for Russia. It will work for an ideological alternatve to
the European Union. This indicates an uncertain and highly insecure
2015 for Russia. The transitng Rahu in the Ascendant also indicates that
Russian government will try to establish its authority in world politcs. It
will play a crucial role in Syria, Bulgaria, Serbia and other Balkan
countries.
The Russian impact will be felt on the global oil strategies. Sanctons will
have some adverse efects on Russian economy but neither the
sanctons nor the NATO will be able to force Russia to give up. Despite
the Ukraine crisis, America will have limited optons and is likely to
depend on diplomatc eforts rather than going for cold war like
situatons. The last quarter of year 2015 will be extremely challenging
for the Russian President as he is likely to face various domestc and
external problems.

Will the year 2015 bring good times


for Brazil?
The ffh largest country in the world in terms of land area, Brazil is
considered South America's most infuental country. Despite having the
greatest biological diversity in the world and major ofshore oil reserves,
Brazil is yet to utlise its capabilites to the fullest. High crime rate,
corrupton, economical disparity and major issues like AIDS and
inadequate public services have been considered as major obstacles in
Brazil's progress.
But, even with so many challenges in its path, Brazil has earned a name
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

62

for itself for being one of the rising economic powers in the world. What
if Brazil drastcally improves its productvity, infrastructure and overall
performance? Will 2015 be the year for Brazil? Is a major turning point
in the ofng for Brazil? Or, will it be just another year of struggle and
setbacks? Ganesha fnds out.
Astrological Analysis
On 5th October 1988, Brazil adopted a new consttuton, which
represented a signifcant change from the past procedures and practces.
This new consttuton was signed at 3:49 PM, hence it has been
considered as the basis here for drawing Brazil's Kundali/ Horoscope
The Horoscope of Brazil indicates that the planets Ketu and Venus are in
conjuncton in the 1st House in the Zodiac Sign Leo. Moreover, Rahu is
posited in the 7th House. Whereas Moon is Swagruhi (in its own House)
and Mercury is debilitated in the 8th House.
Since, Swagruhi Moon is in the House of Loss in Brazil's Horoscope,
Brazil's relatons, so far, with other countries have been good and
amicable. Also, since the Moon is aspectng the 6th House, Brazil may be
able to provide good civil services. But, the Lord of the Gain House and
the Wealth House, Mercury, in the 8th House is not considered
favourable. Brazil may have to face problems regarding cash infows.
There may also be controversies regarding the security agencies of the
country.
What Next?
At the beginning of the year 2015, Jupiter will be transitng through
Cancer and during 01/01/2015 t o 09/04/2015, it will be moving in a
retrograde moton. Ganesha notes that Jupiter will again start moving in
direct moton in Cancer from 10/04/2015 onwards, which shall contnue
tll 13/07/2015. Jupiter will be transitng through Brazil's Horoscope's
12th House in Cancer and over its Natal Moon. As a result, there may be
a decrease in Brazil's natonal liability. Foreign policies and other related
maters may, however, go through positve developments. Afer
14/07/2015, Jupiter will be in Leo in Brazil's 1st House. As a result, the
naton shall grow rapidly and the progress shall be very good. Brazil's
relatons with neighbouring countries shall also improve, at that tme.
On the other hand, Rahu will be in Virgo and Ketu will be in Pisces in the
year 2015. Saturn will be in Scorpio. Since Rahu will be transitng
through the Wealth House in Brazil's Horoscope, Brazilian Real (the
currency of Brazil) may remain highly volatle in 2015. In around mid-

GaneshaSpeaks.com |

63

2015, the Finance Minister of the country may be changed. Since Saturn
will be transitng through the 4th House in the Brazil's Kundali, the
agricultural and infrastructural growth too may slow down. The
automobile industry of the country also may have to face some new
challenges. Sectors like petroleum and dairy products may not witness
expected growth.
Despite all this, in a nutshell, Ganesha feels that Brazil may be able to
fnd decent progress in 2015, even in the face of some challenges.

Saturn transits in Sagitarius, which is the 8th Sign from yours,

Sign from yours, along with Sun and Mercury.

Eventul tmes

1st January to the end of February

18th March to 11th April

6th June to 9th October

Your Life
The year commences with Saturn transitng in the 8th Sign from your
Sign. Thus, the year may not start of on a very spirited note, as you are
likely to feel a raging discontent with your current way of life; and will be
looking for radical changes to add some momentum to your life, and
make it livelier.
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

66

Also, the Lord of your Sign transits in trine with your Sign, along with Sun
and Mercury which shall make you even more foscused on the change.
As the saying goes, change is the only constant. And, bringing about
massive changes in your life shall top your agenda now.
You may even start of by relocatng from your current place of
residence, or redoing your house by changing the interiors. A strong
desire to visit a foreign destnaton for beter growth prospects may also
overpower you, compelling you to seriously consider making a switch.
However, while you go about seeking change, life may have a diferent
plan for you altogether the twist, as we called it earlier.
Ganesha says that even if you relocate or setle down in another part of
the world for a beter living, life may bring you back to where you belong
most likely by the second half of the year. This may cause you
disappointment and emotonal unrest, propelling you to take a plunge
into the spiritual waters in search of peace. Here too, you may try hard,
but the net result shall not be very encouraging. Your practcal,
materialistc nature may not beneft much from the spiritual world not
for long, and you may soon return to your basic nature though, with a
good result of making you more amicable and understanding in your
approach.
Stll, if change is all you seek invest in a new vehicle or indulge in luxuries
to make your life more comfortable. You shall do yourself a world of
good! Don't make impulsive decisions or ones which lack a proper
planning or foresight.
Talking of investment, Ganesha warns against being too generous and
extending fnancial help to someone close who might be in need. This
situaton is very likely to arise now, but you would be beter of parking
your precious money in a safe place rather than doling it out to
acquaintances, as some of them might take advantage of your unstntng
help. You should also steer clear of actvites that involve speculaton.
Stock markets and betng is a complete no-no for you. You can instead
plan how to best utlize your savings for future needs and comforts. Plan
things, whether on career or fnancial front, with a long-term view.
Incidentally, the period from around the middle of June to around the
middle of September 2015 does not seem to bode well for you. It may
be marked by uncertainty and confusion. Ganesha, thus, advises that
important decisions, especially those concerning your career and
fnance, be delayed tll the stars are more favourable.
However, planning and strategising for future can contnue unabated.
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

67

You may have to tread carefully while atending important business


meetngs, and be metculous about minute details. Anyway, theres no
great threat as such; besides, come August and things shall start looking
up.
Love and Relatonships
The more you try to run away from making a commitment, the more
shall be the pressure on you to do exactly the opposite. This year, theres
just no running away from anything and that includes love, chuckles
Ganesha. And, if you have to give up, for loves sake, the frst quarter of
the year would be the best tme to do so.
Yet, dont just blindly go by your impulses; Ganesha says that you should
try to understand your love partner inside out, before you take a step
forward. The second quarter of the year could be a good tme to take the
fnal plunge, and announce a grand ceremony.
For those of you already in a relatonship, love may be rekindled in a way
that could make your bond stronger. Taking a short vacaton to unwind,
and spending quality tme with the love of your life shall act as a balm
for strained tes.
In fact, the period between May and July seems to be one of the most
suitable tmes for this. Including family and close friends as part of this
leisure trip shall make it more memorable. Keep your tempers in check,
though, especially around the middle of June to the middle of
September to avoid misunderstandings arising out of altered priorites or
perspectves.
Eventul tmes

28th January to 11th April

1st August to 7th October

Finance
Your fnancial positon at the beginning of the year shall be quite stable,
if not enviable. However, tll around the middle of February, no
notceable headway is likely. In fact, with Saturn retrogressing from the
middle of March onwards, you may experience some monetary
constraints and enhanced pressure on this front. Those running a
business might also face troubles executng their projects and
proceeding ahead with development-oriented actvites with cauton
shall be paramount.
Anyway, post March, your eforts may bear fruits, and you might enter
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

68

into a period of fnancial stability again. Planetary transits shall bring you
a favourable tme, which may last tll the end of September. You can
expect an increase in income, and even in the infow of extra money.
Businessmen may also beneft handsomely, as the investments made
earlier could fetch them good profts.
Around the last quarter of the year, however, some unexpected
expenses may upset your fnancial plans. On the positve side, though,
there are likely to be some monetary gains as well. This shall help you to
make up for most of the loss incurred.
Eventul tmes

6th January to 13th March

1st May to 7th July

Business
Despite setbacks and repeated fuctuatons in business prospects,
businessmen can expect their customer base to expand signifcantly,
leading to increased turnover and strong foothold in their respectve
arenas this year.
However, theres no escaping the risk; you shall have to keep your
policies fexible, and may even need to reduce proft margins to atract
bulk buyers.
All development-oriented actvites, especially the ones involving
fnances should be undertaken during the frst half of the year, says
Ganesha. Also, a proper check on inventory will be needed around the
second half of the year.
Traders shall have to be more atentve. If they hoard stuf unnecessarily,
they may land themselves in trouble. Major fuctuatons in the prices
may be expected this year, especially in the second half, and that is why
hoarding will not be a good idea, says Ganesha.
Anyway, it will be a year of good opportunites for those in the service
industry and tertary sector, specifcally if they keep pace with the
changing technologies. Organisatons which work on HR related actvites
and placement shall be doing quite well, as the industry will be looking
for newer talent. Those trading in surveillance systems and safety
equipments are also likely to be busier during the year.
Overall, anyone who is equipped to take up new challenges, adapt to
new technology and keep a fresh approach shall have many
opportunites to grow and expand.

Eventul tmes

5th January to the middle of April

15th June to 15th September

Career
Ganesha foresees excitng career opportunites for the newbies this year.
Nevertheless, you should be prepared to face challenges, and give your
best at every stage; even if it means putng in extra hours to achieve
your targets ahead of the deadline, or acceptng a transfer for a brief
period.
For those already employed and looking for a change, there could be
opportunites coming your way, but this will require considerable
patence. With Saturn to transit through the 8th Sign from yours, you
may really not feel satsfed with your present positon. There will be a
strong urge to bring change. However, for this you need to be prepared
to explore a new feld, and accept newer challenges. A radical change in
some of your responsibilites is also on the cards. Note that the period
between 15th June and the end of July may not be very favourable to
introduce change, thus take care around this tme.
Ones in felds like sales and marketng will have to remain on their toes
to meet targets. Competton is likely to be tough for everyone, and
many of you will require a new strategy to remain afoat. For many of
you, the frst quarter of the year may turn out to be quite demanding.
You may have to work harder than usual, and may even have to rely on
your inter-personal skills and personal rapport to boost your overall
prospects. The later half of the month of June and the whole of July also
may turn out to be tough.
At work-place many equatons may change. Keep a cordial and amicable
demeanour to ensure you stay out of conficts and troubles. Refrain from
indulging in ofce gossip. As aforementoned, period from around the
middle of June to the end of July may be turbulent and so it shall be for
contnuance of your job. Avoid any major job changes around this tme.
Eventul tmes

1st August to 8th October

1st March to the middle of June

Educaton
The overall planetary transits during the year ahead seem to be

GaneshaSpeaks.com |

70

favourable for academic progress, in general. However, on being lured by


distractons, you may not be able to remain focused consistently, and
may also have difculty in remembering things you may have studied in
the past.
Those in their last year of graduaton or even school shall need to exert
relatvely more to achieve the desired results. Also, if it so happens that
if your results are announced afer mid-April, you shall stand a beter
chance of scoring well.
It is noteworthy that the people pursuing higher educaton - post
graduaton or even doctorate - are likely to experience enhanced
difculty. The period around June to the end of August seems crucial for
such endeavours.
The planet concerned with the higher educaton for you is Saturn, and it
will be posited in the 8th House from your Sign. Saturn in the 8th House
is said to induce dissatsfacton. Thus, it is up to the person concerned to
give a right directon to this dissent or dissatsfacton. For once, you may
even feel like changing your subjects for beter future prospects.
However, don't take rash decisions. Instead of this, you should work hard
to improve your performance.
Remember the saying by a wise man, Contnuity is name of the game,
and only then take a step forward in a diferent directon.
Also, this year, you should indulge in some co-curricular actvites to get a
decent break and freshen yourself up mentally. In fact, this is the area
where you should look to satsfy your need to get change you can
cultvate a new hobby or hone an existng skill.
Health
The 6th House relates, among other things, to ailments and diseases.
The North Node's transit in the 6th Sign from yours shall contnue for the
most part of the year 2015.
This indicates that you may not fall seriously ill or get bed ridden during
the year ahead. And, you are likely to enjoy good health, in general
well, most of the tme.
However, this does not apply to the ones who are already experiencing
some old, nagging health issues. Thus, if you already sufer from health
concerns like high or low blood pressure, diabetes, stomach related
troubles or a chronic ailment, you will need to be prety careful. A
regular health check-up shall be a must for you, says Ganesha. Take your
medicines regularly, as prescribed by your physician and eat healthy.
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

71

There is a possibility of you getng hurt accidentally. Time from around


the last week of February to the middle of May should be partcularly
important that is during this tme you will need to take care. With Ketu
posited in the 12th House, you should take special care while indulging
in long-distance travel or while driving.
Note: The aforementoned predictons about your health are solely
based on the planetary transits/positons, as per the western astrology.
Do not take these, as a substtute for a qualifed physicians advice.

Taurus Monthly Predictions 2015


(Taurus) January
As you begin the New Year, you will be full of enthusiasm and positvity,
as a plenty of your goals may have been achieved. Thus, with the month
and year beginning, you shall essentally be in a mood to relax, take a
break and enjoy life, in general. You will be optmistc about future,
grabbing opportunites without delay. However, there will be some
amount of let down for not being able to achieve as much as you had
expected, but that should not deter you, especially from being ambitous
in future.
If your personal relatonship has been going through a turbulent tme,
you can now expect the stress to ease, especially during the frst week of
January. This will cheer you up considerably, helping you focus on other
important maters.
At work, you will be motvated to conquer higher goals and a beter
positon. Your hard work might even pay of prety soon, as some
structural changes in career are envisaged for you, says Ganesha. But, as
the month progress, you may adopt a laid-back attude at work too,
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

72

because there wont be much happening. The focus, instead, might turn
to your relatonship with your friends and loved ones.
While you spend quality tme with family, ensure not becoming too
possessive about your life partner, as this may lead to discords and
diferences, cautons Ganesha. There may also be a plenty of confusion
in your mind about the way forward, but if you tread carefully, you
should be able to fnd your way out of the maze.
Health wont be much of an issue for the young, but the middle aged
and old will have to be very alert and go for regular checkups. Saturn will
infuence the 2nd House, which is related to money, from your Sign
around the second week of January. This is when there might be
unexpected expenses, upsetng your saving plans. So, stay prepared!
Towards the end of the month, having learnt from past experiences, you
will make some wise decisions, which will boost your fnances. This holds
true for business persons as well as professionals. You will be able to
juggle work and personal life efciently. But, try and refrain from taking
important decisions related to fnances or educaton now. Wait for the
right tme, and tll then plan your actons, says Ganesha.
Tip Handle domestc maters with due care, and steer clear of conficts
and discord. Be patent and fexible.
(Taurus) February
When you begin this month, planetary positons will be quite favourable
for your work and career. Your performance at work will be
praiseworthy, and your bosses shall be more than just happy with your
work. Colleagues too will be very supportve, helping you create a
healthy and comfortable work environment. In turn, you will rely on
them for their motvaton and guidance. However, with the retrograde
Mercury placed in the 10th House from your Sign, during the frst week
of February, business persons may not have much to cheer about, and
most projects too may hit a slowdown. Plus, although you may be
comfortable fnancially, you will have to be prepared to face an
emergency situaton, which may dent your situaton considerably.
As you enter the second week of the month, there may be problems in
your personal life, demanding tme and atenton. You will have to be
deal with them with a calm mind. Thankfully, you will be able to sail
through this tough tme, because of the support of your life partner, who
will be quite understanding and responsive to your needs. With Mercury
turning direct around the middle of second week, business persons

GaneshaSpeaks.com |

73

waitng for the right tme to take acton can expect to have a lucratve
tme too. You will also be relatvely beter of fnancially during this
period, as you will now be able to take steps to improve your potental
and enhance your earnings.
As the month progresses, there will be quite a few changes in the
planetary positons. The Sun will enter the watery Pisces around the
middle of the 3rd week, while Mars and Venus will enter the fery
cardinal Sign Aries, over the weekend. During this tme, you will contnue
to feel dissatsfed over one thing or the other, which shall lead to stress
and take a toll on your health. You will have to be careful to not do
anything in haste, as you may miss out on a good opportunity this way.
As the month nears its end, Mars will be placed in its own Sign Aries,
along with Venus, propelling you to act with convicton. But on the fip
side, you may end up spending a lot on fulflling your personal needs,
which may afect your fnances adversely. But, thanks to Jupiter, overall
you will be able to manage your expenses well. On the home front, you
are likely to now remain trouble-free, and may even look to renovate
your house.
Tip Stay away from friends who try to distract you from your goals in
life. They are not your true friends!
(Taurus) March
You may have to be on your toes at the beginning of the month. Some
mistakes on your part in the tasks assigned to you may land you in deep
water. Be double sure about your work before you send it across. You
will get busier by the day, with more and more assignments coming your
way, making you feel worn out. A small outng with loved ones will work
in your favour and you will come back full of zest and gusto. During the
second fortnight of the month however, engulfed by negatvity, you may
fail to notce the constructve side of any development. A pragmatc
approach is what Ganesha advises you to embrace. Your superiors may
fnd faults in your work, and this may leave you disconcerted. You need
to understand that critcism may not be agreeable but is necessary, as it
keeps you going.
Saturns retrograde moton augers minor setbacks for businessmen
aiming to achieve higher growth. Utlise this tme to detect the problems
in your ongoing projects and loopholes in projects that are in the
pipeline. Unfortunately, Jupiter will join Saturn in its retrograde moton
to makes maters worse. You need to remain cool and composed.

GaneshaSpeaks.com |

74

Some unexpected expenses may slightly disturb your fnancial plans at


the beginning of the month, but theres nothing to worry about.
Investments made earlier are likely to give encouraging returns, which
Ganesha advises you to re-invest. If possible, keep important fnancial
decisions for some other tme.
You may not exactly be in the pink of health this month but what is likely
to worry you more is the inability to spot the exact cause of your
restlessness. The least you can do is avoid junk food and maintain a
ftness regimen. As Mars infuences Jupiter at the end of the month,
there is a possibility of a mishap; remember that its beter to be safe
than sorry.
The frst fortnight does not spell well for your married life. But as the
tme passes, you will be more practcal in your approach and will handle
things maturely. The stars have a pleasant surprise in store for you
during the second fortnight. It will turn out to be a favourable tme for
not only those who are married but also for singles and those in a
relatonship.
Tip Plan your expenses to ensure you do not end up spending on
unnecessary stuf. If you go overboard on spending on luxuries and fun
actvites, you may harm your savings.
(Taurus) April
A mixed bag of some good tmes and some not-so-good ones awaits you
at the beginning of the month.
On one hand you will be in seventh heaven experiencing marital bliss
and on the other hand, work related issues will keep pulling you down.
You will be so dissatsfed with the atmosphere in your current
workplace that you may seriously contemplate a job change.
Unfortunately, the planets might not help you in your search for a beter
opportunity. So, instead of sulking over your misfortune, keep doing
good work; you never know, the stars may change their mind and
shower their blessings upon you.
As the week progresses, you will get busier at the work front. Sincerely
and wholeheartedly, you will successfully complete the tasks assigned to
you and in return be applauded for your good work. But you are likely to
become over-confdent and temperamental around middle of the
month. Dont let these qualites spoil the good name you have earned.
You may have to roll up your sleeves and burn the midnight oil to
achieve your goals around end of the month.
GaneshaSpeaks.com |

75

Proftable deals will come your way if you are into business, as planetary
alignments are favourable in this regard. Some difcultes like slow pace
of growth and lesser turnover are lined up for you at the end of the
month but you will weather the storm and come out with fying colours
in the end. All you need to keep in mind is that perseverance is the key
to success.
Rising expenses, both unexpected and unexpected, may be a cause of
concern for you this month. Luckily, the positve infuence of Jupiter,
during major part of the month, will help you manage your fnances.
Now that you know what is in store for you at this front, Ganesha advises
you to plan your fnances well in advance.
The month had begun on a positve note for your love life but the stars
have a diferent story to tell in the end. Lack of communicaton and
misunderstandings may disrupt the harmony in your personal life. Sort
out all diferences before the rif widens, and Ganesha is sure you will do
so comfortably.
Tip: Major fnancial decisions are best avoided now. Also, do not sign
new agreements, as the planets are not favourably aligned.
(Taurus) May
A mix of challenges and achievements is in store for you. In all likelihood,
you are likely to get worked up during the month. Nevertheless, you will
achieve your desired goal towards the end of the month, which will
leave you happy and content.
As the month begins, you may be slightly irritated and agitated. These
temperamental issues, which are due to unfavourable planetary
positons in your Sign, may prove to be dangerous if you do not practce
cauton. Try to be diplomatc, especially while discussing money maters.
If you plan to commit, seek an experts opinion before giving a nod.
Know that one wrong judgment may lead to money getng stuck up and
returns getng delayed. Career again remains in the focus this tme
around. Venus in the 3rd House of your Sign indicates lack of
concentraton. If in the job, you need to be extra atentve while
completng an assigned task. You may have to prove your worth with
every step. Theres no relief. Verbal exchanges and heated arguments
with your boss is quite a possibility. But again, love-hate relatonship
between boss and employee is a common afair! Eventually, your boss

toil hard to win over high value customers. Moreover, meagre profts
may lead to discontentment and dissatsfacton. Also, unexpected

the family. This too shall pass, is the mantra to be practced during this
phase. Be hopeful; positve frame of mind can set things right. Ganesha
predicts a good period for singles who want to indulge in firtng and
romance, without any commitments.
Tip: Refrain from aggressive or dominatng behaviour. Remain open to
others' suggestons. Do see others' perspectve too.

months to come. At home, its tme to put an end to the prolonged do


not talk phase, which is deterioratng your marriage and ruining the
happiness of your family. Be mature to take responsibilites of your
mistakes. At the same tme, be frank enough to point out maters where
your partner is at fault. This will not only develop a healthy
understanding, but give a new lease of life to your relatonship. In
between, you may even visit an old tme friend to vent out your
frustraton and pressure.
Travel for work, business or leisure is on the cards. Indulge in pleasureseeking actvites to unwind and relax. But, be careful about your eatng
habits, your digestve system is likely to sufer this tme around. Cough
and cold too are likely to mar your energy levels. Take preventve
measures for good.
The phase may turn out to be blissful for singles looking for suitable
companions, and for those already in a relatonship the cards depict
enjoyment and special bonding!

burn the candle at both ends to meet the deadlines of pending tasks and
those just assigned to you. But you are not the only one, even the most
organised among us occasionally face deadlines that make us work our
guts out. So, instead of blaming the stars this month, focus on your work

your bosses are likely to motvate you to perform beter. Owing to their
support you will feel confdent. You will now be dreaming big, and if you

your income you will spend and how much you will put aside as savings.
But, says Ganesha, some unexpected expenses this month are likely to
blow of all your plans. Money will come through one door and exit
through the other. In such circumstances you will be forced to look for
other optons to earn more money, and fortunately, as the new Moon
starts evolving you will come across such lucratve opportunites.
While work will be your priority this month, personal life is likely to take
a backseat. But says Ganesha, make sure you do not totally ignore it
because around mid-July there may be some problems in your marital
life. You will have to sort them out as quickly and as maturely as
possible. Your partner's aggressive attude may get under your skin but
keep calm, pleasant days will be back very soon.

care of your luggage.
(Taurus) August

watch policy.
With cluster of four planets in the 4th House, you may plan a major
changeat home like a optng for a makeover or changing the furniture or
upholstery. But, infuence of Saturn, over these planets, is likely to delay
your plans for the same. Besides, with the Ruler of your Sign Venus in
retrograde mode, you should avoid taking major decisions related to
personal or domestc maters, says Ganesha.
Work as usual is likely to be highly demanding for professionals.
Completng the assigned task, meetng deadlines, performing your best
and vying to get your superiors atenton all this is likely to take a toll
on your health. Try to engage yourself in stress burstng actvites, relax
and rejuvenate whenever you get tme, as tough tmes are likely to
contnue all through the month.
This, according to Ganesha, is a good phase for businessmen to purchase
stocks and prepare indent for future purchases. At the same tme, you
will have to make several atempts to win over high-value
customers/clients. Make an impact on their decisions by showing
presentatons and changing quotatons according to their requirement.
The hard work will defnitely pay in the long run.

will bring out the best in you, and also make you more fexible and adept
at work. These qualites will help you achieve targets that once seemed
unachievable and thus give you utmost satsfacton. But entering the
good books of your boss may not really be easy, as there are already a
few in the line before you.
A business trip, if arranged at the beginning of the month, may prove to
be fruitul. Also, recently you have been brainstorming and jotng down
some plans for the future. This is the perfect tme to actually start

money maters.

positon, with a good saving potental.
In regards to health, Ganesha says that people sufering from

care, tps Ganesha. Equaton with life partner also does not appear to be

patents sufering from hypertension may need to be extra cautous, and
go for regular check-up to avoid emergencies. Afer all, precauton is
beter than cure!

Jupiter will help you manage these expenses comfortably, assures
Ganesha.
(Taurus) Week startng 20th April 2015
Exalted Moon in conjunct with Mars may make you feel confdent as you
enter this week. But on the negatve side, you could become more
arrogant. To add to this, the Sun will enter your Sign, and with the Sun
and Mars together, you may get agitated at the slightest of provocaton.
On getng aggressive, you may throw tantrums and leave things midway.
Moreover, Saturn placed in the 8th House from your Sign may brew
discontent and dissatsfacton because your Sign, Jupiter, will not have a
positve infuence now. The present positon of Jupiter, as the ruler of the
8th House and placed in the 4th House, does not bode well for domestc
maters. This could also aggravate old health issues, making it a cause of
concern. Be specially careful, if you have been sufering from persistent
health ailment. But the good news is that your relaton with friends will
bolster now as they may call upon you for advice and assistance.
(Taurus) Week startng 27th April 2015
The week may see you getng worried over family and career related
problems maters. Some of these issues may be trivial, but the sheer
number of issues demanding your atenton now may leave you stressed.
Business persons may fnd it difcult to push forward plans for growth
and increased turnover. Even if you do manage to take some actons, you
may face roadblocks and remain dissatsfed with the litle progress you
make now, feels Ganesha. This is because Saturn placed in the 8th
House, in retrograde mode, shall work as a deterrent for progress. But
fortunately, you wont be of the track and this should keep you
motvated. Those of you doing a job may have to work extra hours to
achieve the desired results and despite this, your boss may not be too
impressed by your eforts. To add to this, the infuence of retrograde

Saturn over the 2nd House may lead to some unexpected expenses
cropping up. Overall, its not a week you will want to look forward to.
May
(Taurus) Week startng 4th may 2015
With the combust Mars in conjunct with Sun placed in your Sign, you
may get annoyed at the slightest of provocaton. But, Ganesha warns
against getng angry and losing your temper as it will adversely afect
your growth prospects. Combust Mars may not allow you to look at the
situaton in the right perspectve and could become overtly assertve
about your point of view. However, as a positve, Venus and Mercury will
be placed in the 2nd House related to speech and this will make you
somewhat diplomatc while conversing, more so when money is at stake.
This apart, you are likely to make concerted eforts to make family
members happy and contended. In money maters, be careful while
investng funds and take the opinion of experts before making any
commitments. A wrong judgment may lead to money getng stuck up
and returns getng delayed. Businesspersons are likely to be dissatsfed
with their eforts as investments may not yield the desired results.
(Taurus) Week startng 11th May 2015
Career-related issues are likely to be your main concern this week. If
youre doing a job, you may be entrusted with some important
assignment because of your impeccable record. This task may seem
challenging for you initally, but you should be able to handle it
successfully and as a result emerge as a resourceful professional.
Businesspersons are likely to be busier working on some prestgious and
high-value inquiry coming your way. But you may be dissatsfed as the
supply may have to be made in small parts over a tme period. But you
will be compensated well for this tardy progress later when some old
contact gets revived. Friends will be more than just supportve and stand
by you for your cause. On Wednesday, Mars will change its Sign to enter
Gemini in the 2nd House from your Sign and in oppositon to retrograde
Saturn placed in the 8th House. It is now you will need to be careful in
fnancial transactons as some unexpected expenses may dent your
savings.
(Taurus) Week startng 18th May 2015
The good news now is that the new Moon will evolve at the beginning of
this week and the exalted Moon will rise in your Sign. This may lead to a
new beginning in maters related to personal life. You may also cultvate

a larger understanding of issues that earlier seemed too complex to you.


This will keep you in a positve frame of mind and help you think
diferently about the ways and directon to follow to achieve progress.
You may now be able to brush aside your discontentment and focus on
improving your performance. Mercury will also turn retrograde now
which may lead to a minor setback in your life. But if you think positvely,
this will actually give you the tme to rethink about the future acton
plan. You are now likely to become wiser in handling money maters.
With Venus placed in the 3rd House, there may be distractons that will
not allow you to focus on work.
(Taurus) Week startng 25th May 2015
You are likely to face some uneasy moments in domestc maters and
may tend to introspect to fnd a soluton to these issue. With the Sun
and Mars placed in the 2nd House, you may be harsh while
communicatng with family members and may have to forcefully spend
money on buying them gifs and yourself some peace of mind. Around
Wednesday and Thursday, some old contact/friend is likely to come
calling on you which may beneft you as the person may have some
infuental contacts that may come in handy in the future. At work, your
immediate boss may seem to be overbearing because she/he may be
constantly pressurizing you to hurry things up and become more
productve. There may be some verbal exchanges, too. But ultmately,
you both may mend fences and your boss may become your guiding
force. This will, in turn, result in improved performance at your end.
Business-persons may also have to toil hard now to win over high-value
customers, feels Ganesha.
June
(Taurus) Week startng 1st June 2015
Ganesha says there may be some serious diferences between your life
partner and you over priorites regarding household maters. You may be
so busy with your work that you will have litle tme and energy lef to
seriously atempt to difuse the crisis-like situaton needless to say, this
would make problems worse. And on being provoked, you may tend to
go to the extremes. This may be partly because fery planets Sun and
Mars will be placed in the 2nd House, which is related to speech. With
retrograde Saturn placed in oppositon, you are likely to sound arrogant
and overbearing in conversaton with other people. You will need to
check this tendency and be polite, especially while talking with
infuental persons and also your loved ones. You may sufer from sore

avoid any further complicatons. Unexpected expenses related to family
and household may come up frequently around this tme and upset your
savings plans.
(Taurus) Week startng 8th June 2015
Career is likely to be top on your priority list this tme around. With two
major benefces infuencing the 10th House (of Career), you can be sure
of beter tmes in career maters. This period will also be good for
businessmen as they may be able to strike some proftable deals. Those
in fashion, SPA and luxury goods industries are likely to beneft
handsomely now. However, be specifc about the payment terms and
make regular follow ups to recover dues in tme as there is a strong
possibility of losing a part of the payment. Also, make sure that the
goods are checked for quality before they are sent to your customers.
The good news is that Mercury, the signifcator of intelligence, will turn
direct around Thursday. This will help shore up your fnances and put
things in order on the fnancial front. You are also likely to have an
enjoyable tme with friends. Singles seeking the company of the
opposite sex may get a favourable response now, says Ganesha.
(Taurus) Week startng 15th June 2015
A major change in planetary confguraton will take place now as Saturn
will re-enter Scorpio in retrograde mode. With this, Saturn will be placed
in the 7th House from your Sign and in direct oppositon to your Sign.
This may lead to a minor setback in your profession/ business. You will
need to review your acton plan to achieve higher growth. You may also
be required to put in extra eforts and have the patence to convince
high-worth consumers. You will also need to focus on the customer care
policy and provide beter services in order to create a stronger brand
image. On the job front, you may receive good co-operaton from peers,
but your relatons with superiors may not be very encouraging. Your boss
may seem to be on a fault-fnding mission. So, remain focused and avoid
any mistakes while doing a given task. The New Moon falls on Thursday,
and as a result, around Thursday you will have trouble putng your
priorites in the right order.
(Taurus) Week startng 22nd June 2015
A notceable change now is that the Sun will change its Sign to enter
cardinal Sign Cancer in the 3rd House from your Sign. You are likely to
enjoy socializing and partying this week, but your focus will stll remain
on your area of interests. A new meaningful relatonship may develop

93

during this period which may in some way help advance your interests.
Businesspersons, sales persons and freelancers are likely to get more
benefted by Sun's entry in Cancer. Around Thursday, Mars will also enter
cardinal Sign Cancer. But Mars will stll remain in combust state due to its
proximity with the Sun. The combinaton of Sun and Mars placed in the
3rd house is likely to prompt you to take risks and venture into a new
territory. But as Ganesha warned earlier, you will need to take care of
temperamental behaviour. Relatonship with life-partner may not be
very cordial and there may not even be any willingness on either side to
take an initatve and sort things out.
(Taurus) Week startng 29th June 2015
With the start of this week, your relatonship with your life partner is
likely to deteriorate further, making things difcult for you. The
indiferent attude of your beter half may make it more difcult to
resolve the issue. From around Wednesday, you may be inclined to leave
the mater as it is and focus on other relevant issues. You may visit an
old-tme friend to vent your feelings and relax. Businesspersons are likely
to make elaborate plans for venturing into a new territory to expand
their business and, in turn, boost earnings. A short-term travel in this
context is likely to prove fruitul. Those doing a job may have to work
very hard to successfully handle the task entrusted them. But, on a
positve note, Ganesha says that you may now be able to use your
discreton while spending money. Some extra money is also likely to
come your way, either in form of some incentves or returns from
investment made earlier.
July
(Taurus) Week Startng 6th July 2015
Afer a long stnt in its own sign Gemini, Mercury will shifs into the
watery cardinal sign Cancer this week. Mercury will now be placed in the
3rd House from your sign to join Sun and combusted Mars already
placed therein. The aggressiveness of these fery planets is now likely to
be guided by shrewd intelligent Mercury. Business and salespersons
looking to venture into a new territory may be able to plan their tours
intelligently. Around Wednesday, unexpected expenses related to
domestc maters are likely to upset your plans to save money. Those of
you doing a job may have to toil hard and work extra hours to meet
deadlines. But fortunately, your boss is likely to act as a guiding force
rather than a critc. This is likely to encourage you to remain motvated
and give your best. Businesspersons too may have a reason to cheer as

high-worth customers may come calling now. Those dealing in foreign


trade stand to gain a lot this week, says Ganesha.
(Taurus) Week startng 13th July 2015
Family and fnance related maters are likely to be your key focus areas
now. You may be unhappy with your fnancial positon and this may, in
turn, compel you to look for other avenues to boost you earnings. If you
have some connectons abroad, this is a good tme to beneft from them,
says Ganesha. Around Thursday, the New Moon will start evolving. This
is indicatve of a new beginning in earning money from a new source.
The rising of a New Moon is likely to have a refreshing infuence on your
mind. At work, in spite of experiencing difcult conditons, you will
remain undeterred and apply yourself with convicton to succeed in your
endeavours. Businesspersons and professionals dealing with
organizatons located abroad are likely to strike a proftable deal. These
connectons are likely to beneft you in the long-run. But, freshers may
have to work hard to prove their credentals as an efcient and
commited professional. You may not be happy in marital life as the
aggressive nature of your life-partner may make you feel low and
frustrated.
(Taurus) Week startng 20th July 2015
This week, you may be busy changing the decor of your living room to
give it a more modern look and add more luxuries to your home. As a
major change in planetary confguraton, the Sun will enter own sign Leo.
Sun will now be placed in the 4th House from your sign and conjunct
with Jupiter and Venus already posited therein. With the Sun in its own
sign, your confdence is likely to grow. The next day, Mercury will also
enter Leo. This is likely to induce you to think big and go all out to make
your dream come true. But Ganesha says consistent efort on your part
will be required to achieve this feat. Making money may not be your only
goal. You may be inclined to achieve something that will beneft many.
However, retrograde Saturn placed in the 7th House may act as a
deterrent, holding you back from moving fast by posing hurdles in your
way to progress.
(Taurus) Week startng 27th July 2015
You are likely to feel low and dejected at the beginning of the week as
you may experience Monday blues. But from Wednesday, you are likely
to be back to your usual self elegant, methodical and yet sensual. The
infuence of Mars over Moon in Capricorn is likely to encourage you to
act fast. You will then get busier with routne actvites. But retrograde

Saturn placed in the 7th House may put breaks on your ambiton. This is
therefore an ideal tme to look back and review your acton plan to
achieve rapid growth. A work, you are likely put in consistent eforts to
overcome difcult conditons. Rahu (North Node) placed in the 6th
House is likely to back your eforts to perform efciently. However, there
are no major monetary gains coming your way now. But for
businesspersons the story is quite diferent. You are likely to be more
than happy with an increase in turnover which will help shore up your
fnances.
August
(Taurus) Week startng 3rd August 2015
With a cluster of four planets in the 4th House, you may feel inclined to
make some major changes in your residence this week. The infuence of
Saturn over these planets is likely to jeopardise your plans for making
major changes, though. With the ruler of your Sign Venus being in
retrograde mode, Ganesha advises you to refrain from taking major
decisions related to personal life. Get busy in planning things you feel
like doing. Professionals may face tricky situatons. Also, there may be
some hindrance in carrying out routne actvites as planned. Do not get
perturbed by this, and go on to perform your tasks with patence. For
businessmen, the week is auspicious to take stocks and prepare indents
for future purchases. Around Saturday, Mercury enters its own Sign Virgo
and positons itself in the 5th House from your Sign. This is likely to
positvely impact monetary infow. On Sunday, Mars comes out of its
debilitated Sign Cancer and enters a friendly fery Sign Leo.
(Taurus) Week startng 10th August 2015
You may have a tough tme balancing your professional life and personal
obligatons, feels Ganesha. To add to your woes, your life partner may
incline to be indiferent, which may hurt you emotonally. In turn, this
may afect your overall performance. Even afer due deliberaton, you
may be clueless about how to set things right. Around Wednesday,
Jupiter changes Sign to enter Virgo, and joins Mercury posited in the 5th
House. With two intelligent and wise planets, Mercury and Jupiter,
posited in the 5th House, you are likely to come out of disappointments
and feel relieved and refreshed. However, the struggle on the practcal
level may contnue. Mars and Saturn will be aspectng each other.
Professionals are likely to feel stressed. In view of this, you may be keen
to look for other optons. Ganesha feels that the planetary alliances do
not support change. You may need to bear with difcult conditons at

your workplace for now. Over the weekend, New Moon starts moving
into Leo.
(Taurus) Week startng 17th August 2015
Moon is posited in Virgo, along with the ruler of the Sign, Mercury and
Jupiter at the beginning of the week. With Moon in conjuncton with
benefces, you are likely to feel at ease. You may feel like organising
things and setng priorites. However, around Tuesday and Wednesday,
you are likely to be confused and unsure of which path to pursue, says
Ganesha. In job, you are likely to be stressed with heavy workload. You
may be entrusted with some complicated task. With Moon coming in
contact with Saturn, even routne work may seem difcult, afectng your
efciency. You may need to put in more working hours to meet
deadlines. Businessmen may have to make repeated presentatons to
win worthy clients. Freshers searching for suitable employment may be
disappointed with no response coming from prospectve employers. On
the fnancial front, you will be comfortable, and may even save some
money. On Sunday, Sun changes Sign to enter Virgo.
(Taurus) Week startng 24th August 2015
You may be at your wits end, resolving issues in marital life and feeling
depressed due to the prevailing disharmony. It is beter to focus on other
issues of long-term Signifcance. From Tuesday, when Moon enters an
earthly Sign, you are likely to be in the right state of mind to atend to
issues related to career and fnances, predicts Ganesha. With ruler of the
9th and 10th Houses, Saturn in direct mode, the tme is ripe to work on
plans made earlier. Saturn is the most important planet for your Sign,
being the ruler of two most important Houses the 9th House from your
Sign which relates to luck and the 10th House which relates to 'Karma'.
However, with the ruler of your Sign Venus stll moving in retrograde
mode, you may not be able to make notceable headway. Professionals
are likely to contnue experiencing tough tmes. On Friday, Mercury
comes out of its own Sign Virgo and enters the airy Sign Libra. On
Sunday, Full Moon shines on the skyline.
(Taurus) Week startng 31st August 2015
Managing money for unexpected expenses is likely to keep you busy
initally this week. Monday blues are likely to afect your focus. However,
from Wednesday, you are likely to come out of depression and feel
refreshed, foretells Ganesha. Your concentraton and performance will
improve. Businessmen are likely to focus on expanding customer base by
venturing into new territory. They are likely to get favourable response

and have cause for cheer. In money maters, you may remain hard
pressed and not be able to save. On the health front, you may fall prey
to adverse seasonal ailments. Old health issues may crop up again and
need prompt atenton. If the problem becomes chronic, opt for some
alternatve type of medicaton. Singles looking for a companion to enjoy
romance are likely to be disappointed with no positve response from
the special someone. This can be atributed to Venus moving in
retrograde mode.
September
(Taurus) Week startng 7th September 2015
With the ruler of your Sign Venus moving in direct mode, you are likely
to be beter placed to resolve issues related to personal life, foresees
Ganesha. Professionals are likely to start feeling comfortable at your
workplace. You are likely to enjoy your work and will be commited,
which will please your superiors. Relatons with peers are likely to be
encouraging and cooperatve. Growth prospects look bright. You may be
stressed about domestc maters. This can be atributed to Mars posited
in the 4th House and Saturn posited in the 7th House, and having a
square aspect with each other's positon. You may have to work hard to
set things right on the domestc front. This confict between Mars and
Saturn may disturb peace in marital life. Do not be too possessive, and
give some space to your spouse to make her/him feel comfortable. If in a
nuclear family, helping your spouse with daily chores is likely to
strengthen your bond. A New Moon shall start rising on Sunday.
(Taurus) Week startng 14th September, 2015
Professionals, foretells Ganesha, are likely to be too busy with ofcial
work now. The major change in planetary confguraton this week is that
Saturn is shifing into the optmistc and extrovert Sagitarius. Saturn
now positons itself in the 8th House from your Sign. With Saturn no
more infuencing the 4th House, related to domestc maters, you may
be able to resolve personal issues with ease. Try to provide enough tme
for complying with your domestc dutes, which will strengthen relatons
with your spouse. You may then enjoy pleasures of married life without
any reservatons. Both of you are likely to be keen to accommodate each
other. Also this week, Mercury turns retrograde in Libra. Now is the tme
to look back and review decisions taken earlier, partcularly maters
related to fnance. You may also evaluate your investments, and seek
expert advice, if needed, in order to improve returns. However, refrain
from taking major fnancial decision.

(Taurus) Week startng 21st September, 2015


Planetary alliances this week suggest that you will metculously
formulate your future strategies. However, this tme does not seem ripe
for taking acton. In a notceable change on Wednesday, Sun enters its
debilitated Sign Libra. Now Sun positons itself in the 6th House to join
retrograde Mercury and Rahu posited therein. You may incur expenses
due to some urgent domestc requirement. Your savings may take a dent.
Also, there is a possibility of some old health issue coming to the fore. It
may take some tme before this can be controlled. Around Saturday,
Mars changes Sign to enter Virgo. Mars then joins Jupiter positoned in
the 5th House. Now again Mars and Saturn are to aspect each other's
positon. Since Jupiter is also positoned with Mars, no major damage is
envisaged. However, remain careful about your diet, as there is a
possibility of digestve system disorders. Unexpected injuries are also
likely. The Full Moon shines on Sunday night.
(Taurus) Week startng 28th September, 2015
Personal expenses, partcularly those related to some addicton, are
likely to become difcult to manage this week, says Ganesha. Returns
from investments made earlier may get delayed. This is likely to add to
your worries. A friend is likely to come to your rescue to help you in this
fnancial crisis. You may need liquid funds for your investment plans.
Professionals may have to ask for a loan from the company you work for.
Old health issues are likely to contnue to bother you this week. There is
a possibility of getng injured around Monday and Tuesday. However, no
major damage is foreseen. Problems related to the digestve system may
cause anxiety. Freshers looking for a suitable job opportunity may have
to compromise on the positon ofered. However, long-term prospects
look encouraging. Those of you looking for an opportunity to express
your love for someone will have to wait patently for a more auspicious
tme. Overall, this does not appear to be a very favourable week.
October
(Taurus) Week startng 5th October, 2015
The week begins on a good note for businessmen and those in a sales
job. You can plan a short term travel around this tme to add a few more
names to your list of customers. But all this excitement may leave you
exhausted and you may decide to relax and enjoy tme with family at
around mid-week. Giving a new look to your living room may also be on
your mind, as Moon is in conjuncton with Venus in the 4th House (of
home and related maters) from your Sign. On Friday, Venus moves into

99

Virgo and then joins Jupiter and Mars in the 5th House from your Sign,
adds Ganesha. The debilitated Venus may not back your search for a
soul-mate, if you are single, but the conjuncton of Mars and Venus
surely promises a good tme for married individuals. This conjuncton
also hints at a high level of adaptability and efciency at the work front.
On Saturday, Mercury turns direct, heralding a good tme to implement
your business plans.
(Taurus) Week startng 12th October, 2015
As the waning Moon nears Rahu and Sun on the very frst day of the
week, you are likely to feel depressed as well as directon-less. But the
new Moon rising on Tuesday, shall bring with it new hope. You may now
be able to think of ways to resolve the issues that have been bothering
you lately. At the job front, you may perform your dutes sincerely but
not succeed in impressing your boss. Change in responsibility cannot be
ruled out. If you are a businessman, the dip in sales may worry you. But
don't lose hope, you shall soon see your business fourishing; let this
temporary phase pass. Although there may be no paucity of money, you
may not really be able to save much. And amidst all these happenings,
around mid-week, you shall not fail to take out some tme for your
sweetheart. Good going! In regard to health, heart patents need to be
careful this week.
(Taurus) Week startng 19th October, 2015
The planetary positon at the beginning of the week is such that the
chances of you getng emotonally hurt are high. This may be due to the
unbecoming conduct of a close friend or relatve. Moreover, Saturn's
infuence over the 5th House may help you see the true picture and
discriminate between true well-wishers and fake ones. Rather than
thinking emotonally, you may now adopt a practcal approach. Cheer
up, says Ganesha, as the academic progress of your kid is likely to gratfy
you. If you are in search of a life partner, your quest doesn't seem to be
ending very soon. But if you are married, you may enjoy a great
camaraderie with your partner and the love and understanding between
you two may be beter than ever. At the job front, there may be
disappointment in store for you what with your boss not suggestng your
name for a promoton you deserve. Finances, too, may be a source of
worry for the Bull.
(Taurus) Week startng 26th October, 2015
Unexpected expenses during the week might upset your fnancial plans.
Furthermore, as Saturn is infuencing the 2nd House of money maters

from your Sign, you are advised to plan your fnances and investments
with a long term in view. Make sure you keep aside enough moolah for
emergencies. Wednesday night is a full Moon night, and the full Moon
will be in your Sign, which is an exalted Sign of the Moon. In view of this,
you are likely to be in a jolly mood. On account of the infuence of Saturn
over the 2nd House, in which Moon is presently posited, you may
cleverly handle not only your routne work and money maters but also
family disputes thanks to your diplomatc approach. Jupiter will be
aspectng your Sign and will thus be in conjuncton with the Lord of your
Sign. This change is likely to bring you recogniton and acceptance.
November
(Taurus) Week startng 2nd November, 2015
At the beginning of the week, Mercury enters Scorpio, and also joins Sun
posited in the 7th House. Mars as the ruler of the 7th House and
Mercury of the 5th House, interchange their Signs. This shall rekindle the
old fre in your marital life, making it pleasant and more enjoyable. With
Mars and Venus in close connecton, expectatons could run high this
week, says Ganesha. You may be inclined to think big and try to achieve
the same by putng in extra eforts. However, Saturn posited in the 8th
House, may force you to focus on other important issues like occupaton
and money maters. The planetary alliances are favourable for increasing
savings. The ruler of the 6th House, related to employment, Venus, being
debilitated and posited in the 5th House, might play a negatve role. You
may be denied a higher positon, though you are well-qualifed for the
same. However, your positon shall remain secured in your current job.
(Taurus) Week startng 9th November, 2015
On Monday, the ruler of your Sign Venus comes out of its debilitated
Sign Virgo and enters its other Sign Libra. Venus then positons itself in
the 6th House. Professionals shall now start feeling comfortable at their
workplaces. On Thursday, new Moon will start rising in Scorpio in the 7th
House. On Friday, two important changes in planetary positons will take
place. Mars and Rahu will cross over each other. Mars leaves Virgo to
enter Libra and positons itself in the 6th House. In the other change,
Rahu leaves Libra to enter Virgo to positon itself in the 5th House,
joining Jupiter already statoned therein. In turn, Rahu dilutes the
positve infuences of Jupiter and becomes strong. Moreover, both Rahu
and Jupiter are being infuenced by Saturn posited in the 8th House. As a
cumulatve efect, your feet shall now remain grounded, and you shall be
highly motvated to work harder for achieving your goals. Overall, these

changes shall help you make faster progress towards your goals.
(Taurus) Week startng 16th November, 2015
With Moon in Capricorn posited in the 9th House, you shall organise
things and set your priorites, and focus accordingly. Progressive forces
shall also work efectvely this week, feels Ganesha. Professionals shall
be entrusted with some extra responsibility to test their adaptability and
level of commitment. You may need to do some multtasking. With the
ruler of your Sign Venus and that of the 7th House in conjuncton, your
work efciency shall improve considerably. Your boss shall be pleased
with your performance. Saturn posited in the 8th House may brew
dissatsfacton. However, if taken in the right perspectve, it shall
motvate you to improve your performance. Businessmen in foreign
trade and professionals handling ofshore projects might have a difcult
tme. On the last day of the week, Mercury changes Sign to enter
Sagitarius. Mercury then joins Saturn posited in the 8th House. This
could make you averse to taking risks.
(Taurus) Week startng 23rd November, 2015
At the beginning of the week, you shall be in a mood to buy luxuries and
may indulge in pleasure seeking actvites. This is due to Moon posited in
the 12th House, related to expenses, and directly infuenced by strong
Mars and Venus posited in the 6th House. A notceable change here is
Sun leaving Scorpio and entering Sagitarius. Sun then positons itself in
the 8th House along with Saturn and Mercury. This indicates struggle in
the coming days. You may have a tough tme resolving issues related to
domestc maters. You may be blamed for no fault of yours. Resolve your
domestc issues in a mature way. You may need to spend some extra
money to provide your dear ones with creature comforts in order to
maintain peace in your domestc sphere. With the full Moon shining on
Thursday, emotons may run high, but you need to keep your cool and
handle things tactully. Overall, this is not a very encouraging period.

Wednesday, Moon comes closer to Jupiter and gets infuenced by

your cool and handle difcult issues diplomatcally. Professionals may get
busy around the weekend, but beware of distractons. Businessmen may

need to toil hard for maintaining existng turnover. Anyway, you shall be
comfortable fnancially. Those who are prone to either low or high blood
pressure need to remain watchful by undergoing regular check-ups to
avoid sudden complicatons. On the last day of the week, Venus leaves
its own Sign Libra to enter Scorpio in the 7th House. Now, Venus and

(Taurus) Week startng 7th December, 2015
Get set to tread on an untrodden path, says Ganesha. A new, unfamiliar
task will be assigned to you this week, and although you may feel a litle
uncomfortable in the beginning, you may start enjoying the challenge as
you get a grip on it. This is the tme to learn, to upgrade your skills and
prove your metle. Although your managers may make it obvious that
they are not pleased with your pace of work, do not take it to heart, just
focus and keep at it. While you shall take the challenges at the work
front head on, you may not be able to maintain the same outlook while
dealing with problems at the home front. Diferences with loved ones,
especially your spouse, may upset you immensely. Mercury changes Sign
to enter Capricorn, the 9th House from your Sign, on Friday. Luckily, this
planetary movement will boost the chances of these issues getng
resolved, feels Ganesha. Besides, this change may also strengthen your
positon at the fnancial front.
(Taurus) Week startng14th December, 2015
Crucial maters at the work front may keep you busy as a bee during
major part of the week. It is beter if you complete all your work before
the weekend nears, as you may unexpectedly be handed over a
responsibility that was earlier shouldered by a colleague. This may be
annoying because the task is being assigned to you as your colleague
was unable to do his bit. But, says Ganesha, this is your chance to
showcase your talent, so don't crib. With the planets opening doors to
money making opportunites, you shall have enough to splurge as well as
save. Just be discreet when it comes to choosing investment optons. An
unexpected expense around weekend may force you to draw some
money from your savings but there's no need to worry about this. Those
sufering from diabetes and blood pressure need to be super careful this
week. Regular monitoring of your conditon is a must.

the real you- practcal, reliable, loyal, afectonate, adamant and
arrogant. On Tuesday, Sun comes out of the dual natured Sagitarius to
enter earthly Capricorn, in the 9th House. You may now tend to be more
focused on your own interests and may thus get busy making plans for a
secure tomorrow. A new meaningful relatonship at the business front
may take shape this week. Talking of relatonships, you may now succeed
in meltng away the tension between members of your family. On Friday,

And this change shall encourage you to take them all on a picnic. What
beter way can there be to strengthen the bond of love?

Home and related maters are likely to grab your atenton this week.
You want to give a new look to your home and your focus may
partcularly be on your living room, to brighten the look of which, you
may intend to buy new furniture, curtains, or artfacts. Ganesha shows
the green fag but also warns you against exceeding a pre-planned
budget for the same. Also, remain careful in fnancial transactons and
avoid lending money to a friend or relatve. On Wednesday, Venus enters
Sagitarius to connect with Saturn, in the 8th House. This shif does not
portend well for your love life. A strained relatonship may give you
sleepless nights whether you are in love with someone or in the marital
bond. As Moon is connectng with Jupiter and Rahu in the 5th House
from your Sign, you may lack confdence and clarity at the career front.
Be alert, especially around middle of the week, warns Ganesha.
