Astrology Special: Your horoscope for 2009

[welcomewiki]

Learn to be versatile

VIRGO
August 24 to September 23
Mantra of the year: Ask and you shall receive.
The year 2009 for the analytical Virgo is hard work. You are very particular about maintaining standards and consistent goodwill in your chosen field of work. Virgoans are blessed with ample good sense and practicality; not only are they inherently wise but excellent in public relations. Calculative, manipulative and smart business sense allows them the Midas touch February onwards. Your resolution will be to be less choosy and more versatile, more flexible and receptive. Ask and you shall receive the kind of recognition and ventures you truly deserve, as the universe smiles on you for being patient and persevering. June onwards, some should take calculated risks with flamboyant ideas to commence a new independent business. Travel far and wide nationally as well as internationally around April will be lucrative. Even though negotiations have mixed results, they will end in much positivity and goodwill.



Finances
Inflows will be promising as sponsors and colleagues believe in your dreams/ convictions. Certain ideas offered to you may prove tempting as get-quick-rich schemes sound promising. Play the safe path, save hard earned money and splurge on luxuries over shopping sprees. Students fare well academically and go ahead to take up job-oriented courses overseas.



Romance
Those in long-term love relationships draw up plans for a lavish marriage by mid-year. Blessings and celebrations are in order as you meet family. If single, you are more social, and likely to meet someone intriguing in your travels. Take a leap of faith and watch the love blossom.



Health
Your body would need more care if suffering from aches and pains. Relying on alternate medicine is a wise idea. Stay happy!



Lucky colour: Wear green for productivity
Lucky stone: Emerald
Lucky day: Thursday
Famous Virgoans: Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor, Shabana Azmi

Career
During 2009, you may play a vital role in the organization that you work for, but career progress may seem slow. This is also the year in which you may feel that you should have actually been earning more out of your current occupation. However, Ganesha assures that if you remain patient, you will be able to earn a little more out of the same occupation as the year progresses, specifically in the second half of the year.



Relationships
If you are not in a relationship, there are very few probabilities of coming across someone very interesting and matching your dreams this year, at least. However, if you are already in a relationship, this year you may come closer physically, specifically during the first half of the year. This is the year to also cultivate better understanding in conjugal life. Keeping the set-rules aside, you have all the scopes of getting carried away by emotions.

Success a fixture mid-year

SAGITTARIUS

November 23 to December 21
Mantra of the year: Communicate and share with family and friends.
The year 2009 for the generous and gregarious Sagittarian is one of giving and sharing and enjoying the process. Sagittarians are fun-loving people who spread their generosity as good hosts, great employers and good colleagues. Blessed with the art of putting people at ease instantly and making them look at the brighter side, you also have the tendency to shove issues and confrontation under the carpet.



This year, you are your extravagant self and make it a point to inspire many at work as your approach and attitude is infectious. Those who are in awe of you take your suggestions and they follow the path that you set for them. Sudden events around February-March are for the best, however you tend to be over analytical and critical in your approach. Trusting others and your keen instincts will work. Success creeps in and makes itself a permanent fixture by mid-year. Believing that you are magical all over again sinks in as fame and recognition are very much part of the acclaim you receive for your contribution. If in the field of communication, real estate and management, you manage to hold seminars and conferences making your point and receiving the reward for it in July-August.



Finances
Long-term ventures are lucrative for some, as it helps you put your money into wise choices and helps it build. Loans and licenses can now be taken as your income gets more abundant and you are able to look after your liabilities.

Domestic life needs its attention with both quality and quantity. Balance your time out with friends with quality time with your mate who needs your reassuring companionship. Friends, relatives and guests will pop in and keep your home bustling with laughter and love. Those in long-term relationships will have much to celebrate as the year ends in a much awaited celebration with a wedding.



Health
This year, health will need attention post March. Given your 'work hard and party harder' schedule, you may need some time to rejuvenate and relax. Hitting the spa and the gym every week is a good idea. Increasing your liquid intake is advised as that will keep your skin and hair glowing and healthy.



Lucky colour: Wear maroon for passion
Lucky stone: Pearl
Lucky day: Tuesday

December 22 to January 20
Mantra of the year: Let your perfectionist streak take a backseat in daily living.
The year 2009 for the steadfast Capricorn is one of continuous progress in your chosen field. Capricorns are blessed with determination, super will and power to execute their ideas.

So whether it is sales or strategy, marketing or manufacturing you remain the best at what you do with your sheer grit. Others may take their time to accept your transition, but your integrity of purpose and single-minded focus is undeniable and fascinating. Meeting important/influential people to build funds to be able to carry out your dreams is essential and you focus on building goodwill. Traveling in January-February for the same may be frequent but very productive. Those in the advertising/entertainment field widen their horizons, get more upfront and experimental and discover their renewed potential and creativity. Those of you in a creative field who may require more exposure will decide to go into a partnership with new and promising people.

While this year promises to be healthy and hearty for most of you -- those struggling with chronic diseases may need a second opinion.

Career
During this year, you will be a bit concerned about financial progress from the ongoing vocation. You may suddenly feel that things that you did with slight effort, now require more efforts. You may also become very impatient for gains. Ganesha suggests you not to 'push' matters and let things happen at their own pace � at least by practising patience, you will be able to remain stress free. Progress may be there but along with this, you may also find that the burden at the workplace is increasing. In fact, if you are able to handle increased demand of your talent or work in the committed time, you will win the game.



Relationships
This year, you will want more comfort at the relationship front and in order to have it, you may add more comforts at home and make the environment better. If single, you may start liking someone. If already in a relationship, this year you may wish to settle down. If in a live-in relationship or married, the year indicates lots of good times with your beloved and there will be a constant stream of love flowing.
