Students might face distractions-stay consistent with your study schedule. Entrepreneurs must double-check financial paperwork before committing to new deals.
Taurus: April 20 – May 20
Your ability to stay grounded pays off now. This is a good week to finish backlogs and impress superiors through consistent output. If you’re preparing for interviews or competitive exams, confidence returns. Business deals related to food, fashion, or real estate show promise.
Gemini: May 21 – June 20
Mercury retrograde in Leo may impact how your ideas are received. Avoid over-sharing plans or giving in to workplace gossip. Students might feel mentally restless-use this time to revise instead of starting something new. Self-employed Geminis should postpone risky investments until next week.
Cancer: June 21 – July 22
The Sun in your sign brings clarity and control. You may finally gain recognition at work or in academic circles. Students will benefit from guided mentorship. Entrepreneurs should prepare for sudden changes in staff or client expectations. Handle transitions calmly.
Leo: July 23 – August 22
With Mercury retrograde in your sign, miscommunication can disrupt work or learning goals. This is a week to observe rather than act. Avoid office confrontations or presenting new ideas just yet. Students must not ignore basic mistakes-rechecking papers will help. A quiet review phase is needed.
Virgo: August 23 – September 22

Libra: September 23 – October 22
You may be chasing work recognition hard-but avoid being pushy with colleagues or teachers. If you’re preparing for creative presentations, rehearse thoroughly. Business owners should delay marketing revamps till late August. Trust your instincts, but don’t skip the practical steps.
Scorpio: October 23 – November 21
This week can bring tests in work partnerships or academic collaborations. Your inner competitiveness is strong, but you must avoid emotional outbursts. Those in research, law, or finance will benefit from solitude. Entrepreneurs should revisit contracts-hidden clauses may need legal review.
Sagittarius: November 22 – December 21
Career growth is possible if you stay grounded. Don’t take on more than you can handle. Students may get distracted by new interests-maintain subject-wise consistency. Business owners should focus on team structure and avoid unrealistic deadlines. Don’t overpromise to clients.
Capricorn: December 22 – January 19
You may be in high demand professionally. Expect tight deadlines or important meetings. If you’re a student, use this intensity to finish tough chapters. Entrepreneurs should watch out for staff absenteeism or logistics glitches. Don’t sacrifice sleep for success-it may backfire.
Aquarius: January 20 – February 18
This week asks you to reflect on whether your current job or education path aligns with your dreams. A forgotten career interest may resurface. Students can revisit old hobbies with new discipline. Entrepreneurs may hear from past clients or collaborators-listen with an open mind.
Pisces: February 19 – March 20
You’re entering a period of subtle but meaningful change. If you’ve been through burnout, this is a good week to rest and reorganize. Students will gain clarity if they journal or meditate. Business owners should consider employee wellness to improve output. A compassionate approach wins.
For job-seekers, it’s a week to polish resumes, not panic. For students, the secret lies in discipline, not last-minute efforts. And for business owners, long-term planning outweighs flashy experiments.
No matter your sign, make every decision count-and remember, success grows from patience, consistency, and awareness.
