Always remember that it is impossible to speak in such a way that you cannot be misunderstood as there will always be some who misunderstand you. This week your focus should be towards your goals rather than people. Please don't get into unnecessary arguments or discussions; rather, get into self-appraisal mode. Advice: Avoid misunderstandings.

Taurus: Success works as a cycle; growth and contraction, balancing and unbalancing, all while you're encountering hurdles that get bigger and bigger over time. The week will teach you self-motivation and self-realisation the hard way. If you want to succeed in what you do, procrastination and laziness should take a back seat. Time to work hard and take matters in control before it’s too late. Advice: Avoid laziness.

Gemini: The time to build your future is in your teenage years and your 20s, but equally, in your 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond. This week will allow you to contemplate what you are doing and where it is taking you. Realignment and career shifts are highly foreseen. Listen to your inner voice, rather than social pressure. Advice: Realign your career.

Cancer: Let the improvement of yourself keep you so busy that you have no time to criticise others. This week you should focus on self-improvement, learning and upskilling. This is also a good time to start a new venture if business is in your mind or go for the job switch you were eyeing. Rewards and recognition are also foreseen in this sweet period of hard work and recognition. Advice: Focus on self-improvement.

Leo: If you're always racing to the next moment, what happens to the one you're in? Slow down, enjoy the moment you're in and live your life to the fullest. The last few days have been tough, and you are getting oblivious to your goals and ambitions. Be a little careful in your financial dealings and consult a financial expert before making any decision. Advice: Take a pause.

Virgo: You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water into a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water into a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip and it can crash. Become like water, my friend. Adapt and do not hesitate to walk in unchartered territory. Advice: Adapt to the changes.

Libra: It’s a tough week wherein you will face resistance in almost everything you do and there will not be any help from the people around you. This is the time to buckle up your seat belts and get the work done by yourself, rather than expecting others to help you. Time to be self-motivated and relentless. Advice: Time to work hard.

Scorpio: A creative life cannot be sustained by approval any more than it can be destroyed by criticism. A difficult week wherein you will face a lot of criticism and resistance. This week will be the perfect time to awaken your hidden leader and take control of things. Communication will be key and can help you turn the tide for you. Advice: Focus on good communication.

Sagittarius: If you are filled with hatred, you can hardly enjoy genuine happiness. Hatred makes your personality extremely fragile, and you lose your temper on the slightest pretext, which further creates enmity. Do not let your emotional or sentimental side overpower your senses. Try and have a balanced demeanour and maintain silence wherever and whenever you can. Advice: Avoid animosity.

Capricorn: If you always attach positive emotions to the things you want, and never attach negative emotions to the things you don't, then that which you desire most will invariably come your way. A week wherein your work will take a backseat and you will enjoy time with your friends and at home. While this is good for the short term and you will have loads of fun, do not let this jeopardise your image at the workplace. Do not ignore your spouse or love interest this week. Advice: Enjoy!

Aquarius: It is not ignorance that is the problem, but the illusion of knowledge. The illusion or the impression you have about yourself, and your knowledge will get a little broken this week as you will realise that there is a lot to be learned. A perfect time to check the skill gap you have and upgrade your skills or go for a certification that will take your career a long way. Just do these three things this week – learn, learn and learn. Advice: Focus on learning.

Pisces: The important thing is not being afraid to take a chance. Remember, the greatest failure is to not try. Once you find something you love to do, be the best at doing it. Do not get perturbed by the hurdles or sudden enmity you are facing at the workplace as it will get resolved. All in all, a long tiring week that will suck the energy out of you. Do not set very high expectations and keep a low profile. Advice: Avoid high expectations.
