April 07 Saturday to April 13 Friday

Aries (Mesha):

No planetary changes except for the Moon’s transit in this week falling immediately ahead of the Sinhala/Hindu New Year. The dawn of the New Year holds special significance for the Aries native for it also marks the ingress of the Sun into Aries where it becomes very powerful and would make the native much energetic, proactive, dynamic and bold. So this is a week more suited for planning and being watchful than action. The current planetary line up too is favourable with, among other things, the mutual aspect between Venus in the Lagna and Jupiter in the 7th House bringing you happiness, peace and prosperity.  An increase in income, a happy family and social time and enhanced living comforts are on the cards. 

Taurus (Vrushabha):

This is the week lying ahead of the dawn of the Sinhala/Hindu New Year, the most significant event in the annual Astrological calendar. There are no planetary changes in this week except for the Moon’s transit. Its transit in your 10th and 11th Houses from 12.35 hours on April 11 up to 4.05 hours on April 16 is very auspicious for you.  By the way, Sun’s ingress into your 12th House at the dawn of the New Year may make you more spiritually and altruistically inclined. Going by the current planetary positions, you can look forward to a rise in career.  

Gemini (Mithuna):

The ingress of the Sun into your 11th House marking the dawn of the Sinhala/Hindu New Year on April 14 holds out a favourable year ahead for you. No planetary changes in the current except for the Moon’s transit.  The Moon’s transit in your 7th House from 11.46 hours on April 6 to 00.24 hours on April 9 is a favourable time, but the Moon’s passage through your 8th House from 00.24 hours on April 9 to 12.35 hours April 11 may cause you illness and may bring some bad news. You are advised to avoid getting involved in conflicts during this inauspicious period.  Going by the current planetary positions, you can look forward to financial security and relief from debts as well as an increase in your popularity and reputation due to Venus favorably placed in your 11th House.     

Cancer (Kataka):

Sun beginning its passage in Aries in your 10th House to mark the dawn of the Hindu/Sinhala New Year holds out a very auspicious year for you ahead. The Moon, the only planet to change signs this week will pass through your 7th House from April 9 to 11 which will be an auspicious time for you. This being the week immediately ahead of the most important annual event in the planetary world – the ingress of the Sun into Aires, the first sign in the Zodiac, the time on is more suited for you to plan out your future and do stock-taking of the past year than getting engrossed in work.

 Leo (Sinha):

  The lord of your Lagna Sun will move into Aries, the first sign in the Zodiac falling in your 9th House marking the dawn of a new week, of a New Year and a new auspicious time in your life. The lord of the Lagna getting exalted in the 9th Bhagyasthana is an augury of a time of fortune. The only planet changing sign this week is the Moon and it will transit in your 5th and 6th Houses from April 6 to 11 which will be a difficult period for you. But the time thereafter will be auspicious. To go by the current planetary positions, among other things, there is a strong possibility of foreign travel for those running the Rahu Maha Dasa.

Virgo (Kanya):

  There are no sign changes by planets this week immediately preceding the dawn of the Hindu/Sinhala New Year except for quick moving Moon’s transit whose passage through your 4th and 5th Houses from April 6 to April 11 could cause you mental unrest and poor health. Thereafter, things may turn for the better.  Venus in your 8th House holds out a time of happiness and fulfillment. Meanwhile, prospects for career success, foreign travel and gains from foreign sources will turn bright with the Sun – Mercury combination in the 7th House. However, given the unfavourable presence of the Mars – Saturn combination in your 4th House, you have to avoid transactions relating to land and property. 

Libra (Thula):

The lineup of planets in this week which precedes the dawn of the Sinhala/Hindu Year remains generally favourable to you. This week is more suited for planning out your agenda for the New Year than going headlong into action.  Lagnadhipati Venus in your 7th House is a warning for you to exercise caution and foresight in dealing with women in particular. Mars – Saturn combination in your 3rd House fortifies you with necessary resources as well as courage and confidence to face challenges and overcome obstacles. 

Scorpio (Vrushika):

  The Sun’s ingress into Aries in your 6th House marking the dawn of a New Year marks an auspicious time ahead for you as well.  The Moon is the only planet changing signs this week and it will pass through your 2nd, 3rd and, 4th Houses ahead of the dawn of the New Year. You may experience financial problems when the Moon passes through your 2nd House from April 6 to 9.  However, you will have a good time with friends, relations and siblings from April 10 to 11.  Circumstances that could cause disrepute, misunderstandings in social circles, losses in speculative investments and marital problems are likely due to Venus beginning transit in your 6th House.

Sagittarius (Dhanu):

The Sun beginning transit in Aries, the first sign of the Zodiac on April 14 heralding the Sinhala/Hindu New Year will mark the beginning of an auspicious time for you.  Financial stability and a high position are assured by favourable Jupiter in the 11th House. Venus in your 5th House holds out a very favourable time for natives who are artistes. A childbirth in the family is also a possibility.  Mars – Saturn combination in your Lagna envisages health problems, worries, disappointments and setbacks. 

Capricorn (Makara):

The Moon is the only planet changing signs this week and it will pass through your 1st House from April 9 to 11 assuring you of good and happiness. A happy family time with festivities and reunions, a sound financial situation and success in educational pursuits are held out by Venus in your 4th House.   The Sun in the 3rd House indicates increased wealth, sound health and even a position of power and authority while Venus and Mercury already in this House holds out a happy time at work and cordial relations with siblings and kith and kin.  

Aquarius (Kumbha):

Natives can look forward to a very favourable time ahead due to the Sun moving into Aries on April 14 heralding the Sinhala/ Hindu New Year. There is a possibility of facing defamation and humiliation due to adverse influence of Ketu in the Lagna. Short journeys, a sound financial position and a happy time at work are held out by Venus in your 3rd House.  Jupiter’s special aspect over the Lagna gives you immense moral strength.    Financial gains, good health and domestic peace and happiness are in the offing thanks to the highly favourable Mars – Saturn conjunction in your 11th House.   

Pisces (Meena):

The Moon will pass through your 1st House on the eve of the Sinhala/ Hindu New Year assuring a time of general contentment with a sense of fulfillment. Time on is also auspicious for starting new projects. Sound health, a good income and a happy family time are held out by Venus in your 2nd House. Mars – Saturn combination continuing in your 10th House imbues you with much resilience and holds out a very productive time with good returns from whatever investment you make. You can look forward to a generally happy and prosperous time.
