May 13 Saturday to May 19 Friday

By Sandagomi

Aries (Mesha):

Mercury in the Lagna gives you pleasing manners and a cheerful disposition, but the adverse influence of the Mars – Sun combination in the 2nd House could cause just the opposite effect– make you rude and discourteous. So you have to strive to make your better nature prevail exercising restraint and foresight. Gainful co-operation from friends and their delightful company will continue to be a source of inspiration to you. The advice to be mindful of your health for phlegmatic problems in particular continues to hold good.  

Taurus (Vrushabha):

The Sun – Mars combination in your Lagna makes you dynamic, energetic and proactive. However, these two planets in the Lagna could make you overzealous and overenergetic leading possibly to much damage. Meanwhile, this combination could cause excessive ‘pitta’ resulting in an increase in body heat. The exalted Venus in the 11th House holds out a steady income and gains from whatever trade you are engaged in. 

Gemini (Mithuna):

You have to act with restraint and foresight at least until May 28 for any rash action on your part could lead to involvement in in disputes and clashes resulting in litigation. Your honour and reputation too are at stake.  You also have to be prepared to face a sharp increase in expenses. Mars’ aspect over the 7th House where Saturn is placed poses a threat to the life of the spouse. This threat remains effective till May 27. 

Cancer (Kataka):

You can look forward to an increase in income and patronage from VIPs following a brief disruption to your income generating activity. Troubles from enemies and health problems are indicated for natives running the Maha Dasa of Saturn. The exalted Venus continuing transit in the 9th Bhagyasthana continue to hold out high status, fame, recognition and gainful foreign travel. 

Leo (Simha):

Sun – Mars combination forming in your 10th House – the two planets commanding Digbala in this House assures an upswing in your income generating activity or a rise in the career and even gainful foreign travel. However, children could become a cause for concern and anxiety.  A prosperous time lies ahead for Leo natives who are politicians, traders, writers and academics.

Virgo (Kanya):

Sun – Mars conjunction in the 9th House could be favourable for father if the Sun is strong at birth. However, Mars conjoining a weak Sun could bring some misfortune to father. The 4th House afflicted by Mars’ aspect forebodes ill for mother.  Studies could get seriously disrupted. Jupiter in the Lagna makes you more interested in altruistic activity than in pursuits that bring you material gains. Marital happiness, love and romance are held out by an exalted Venus in the 7th House. 

Libra (Thula):

You are likely to suffer from ailments caused by the body heat like hemorrhoids due to the body heat caused by the Sun and Mars now transiting in your 8th House.  Disputes with brothers and short journeys are indicated. Harsha Yoga-producing exalted Venus in the 6th House brings you happiness and unexpected financial gains. Mars in the 8th House is also a threat to your personal safety.

Scorpio (Vrushika):

The direct aspect of bot Sun and Mars over your Lagna imbues you with drive and energy. But their influence could mar the marital happiness of the married and dim the matrimonial prospects of the unmarried. Those holding high political or executive office or positions of command in particular, should exercise caution, restraint and foresight when using their powers. 

Sagittarius (Dhanu):

If you are in politics, military service or in an executive position, you can look forward to enhanced power and authority thanks to the powerful Sun – Mars combination in the 6th House. Meanwhile, Malavya Yoga-producing exalted Venus in the 4th quadrant brings you comforts and luxuries, success in educational pursuits and peace of mind.   You are prone to body aches and pains and melancholy moods due to Saturn in the Lagna. 

Capricorn (Makara):

Financial and domestic problems will continue to plague the natives running the Ketu Maha Dasa. You have to cultivate a positive outlook and self-confidence to overcome diffidence, indecision, indolence and a negative mindset you are prone to.  Jupiter’s special aspect over the Lagna is conducive for your physical and mental wellbeing. You have to be more mindful of the safety and health of your children, the eldest child in particular.  Writers, journalists and artistes are in for rewards and high recognition. 

Aquarius (Kumbha):

Setbacks to studies, disharmony in the family, mental unrest and disputes with close relatives are on the cards as the ill-effects of the Sun – Mars combination in the 4th House. Natives holding political and executive are advised to achieve their objectives through persuasion, goodwill and diplomacy rather than by asserting their authority. The ongoing period is not auspicious for any event connected with matrimony. 

Pisces (Meena):

Sun – Mars combination in your 3rd House is very auspicious for you for you will greatly benefit by way of increased power and influence over others. Meanwhile, Fame and political success are held out by Rahu in the 6th House. Time ahead is generally favourable for all natives except for those running the Saturn Maha Dasa.  Venus in the Lagna continues to bestow luxuries and comforts.
