What the new year holds for you

Career and finance
Travelling out of the city on work will be regular, and although this means creating a physical distance between you and your spouse/partner, it will up the intensity in the relationship. The year is good for new beginnings, including starting a business or diversifying your current one (after March 2011). Proceed cautiously if you are planning a career change. A raise in salary after August 2011 is revealed and a temporary transfer is an option. It is important to decide on the expenditure and savings budget with your spouse/ partner since this issue hasn't been resolved. Finances are stronger after September 2011.
Advice from the Tarot: Try and make decisions based on the theory of karma. You reap what you sow.
Health
Be careful about your diet, avoid desserts and fried food. Keep blood pressure under control. Too many late nights and rich food could take a toll on your heart.
There may be a health concern in: February, August, November.
Work through this karma:u00a0 Friends and family are supportive, so be understanding interacting with them.


Taurus
April 21 - May 20
Love, sex and relationships

Madhuri Dixit, Bollywood actor. Born on May 15

An interesting year, it encourages getting to know your partner at the soul level, coming to terms with and accepting your differences as something joyful and great. However, emotional or physical abuse should not be tolerated (whether married or in a relationship) and you may need to close your heart very firmly and keep it so. February, March and April 2011 can be emotionally difficult months. Single Taureans meet their karmic soulmate this year and those planning to get married maybe more comfortable doing so next year. Taurean sexuality is sensuous and earthy. But the comfort level has to be gradually built up by spending time together in a safe environment. Sharing meals, going for walks, etc, play a very important role in this old-fashioned romance. Sexual chemistry is extra strong in January, February, April, May, August, October, November.
Career and financeu00a0u00a0
Financial stability increases from February 2011, and some Taureans find another source of income. Being in a karmic cycle of immovable assets allows selling or buying property without a problem. In a positive career phase, consider jealousy from a colleague as a compliment. No one would be jealous if you were mediocre at your work. But try and dodge office politics during February, August, September, November and December. Taureans looking for employment get lucky after May 2011, but the job profile may be a little different.
Advice from the Tarot:u00a0 Continue to follow the truth; it will set you free.
Health
Respiratory issues, coughs and colds are revealed. Try and avoid repeated late nights and make sure you get enough sleep. Do check with the doctor if extra calcium intake is required in your diet.
There may be a health concern in:u00a0 January, February, March, October.
Work through this karma: Work towards a balance between socialising and spending time alone.

Gemini
May 21 - June 21
Love, sex and relationships

Shilpa Shetty, Bollywood actor. Born on June 8

You meet someone new (after March 2011) and waves of karma wash over you, bringing a relationship to the fore. But the point is, who do you choose? Married Geminis share a deeper and emotionally satisfying relationship with the spouse. Moving out of a joint family set up is possible in this karmic cycle of relocation. Single Geminis enter the marriage period or 'dasha' from October 2011. Verbal communication is an aphrodisiac for Geminis. They tend to blow hot or cold depending on their mood, and enjoy playing mind games, trying out new ways to express their love and passion. Expect things to sizzle in January, February, April, June, August, September and December.
Career and financeu00a0
It's an auspicious time for those beginning a career. Wanting to change your job, hoping there is more travel (there is), looking forward to more responsibility -- these are areas of transformation. However, some Geminis may face sexual harassment at work, which could be overt or subtle. This period begins from March 2011. A raise in salary is possible after September. An inheritance, working overseas and extra expenses in January, November and December 2011 are unavoidable. A hobby can be transformed into a small business.
Advice from the Tarot: Make family your priority and spend as much time with them (quality and quantity) as possible.
Health
You enjoy good health in 2011, but you need to exercise regularly and follow a healthy diet. Dental problems might plague you in intervals.
There may be a health concern in: March, June, October.
Work through this karma: Do all you can to bring peace and contentment in your relationship.


Cancer
June 22 - July 23
Love, sex and relationships

Lindsay Lohan, Hollywood actor. Born on July 2

Where relationships go in 2011 depends entirely on you. Keep in mind that anger, bitter words and ego tantrums create emotional distances that are difficult to bridge. Married Cancereans will be happier this year. If you have been thinking of a divorce, and begin living separately this year, there is a slim chance of reconciliation. Single Cancereans may tumble into two or three relationships and discover there is nothing in common between any of them. Cancerean sexuality is moody and high on passion, but they crave emotional security too. Playing mind games to isolate a loved one is a favourite ploy. When they do respond, their sexuality is powerful enough to either destroy or uplift another. Intense months include February, March, April, June, October and December.
Career and financeu00a0
You could be making new investments or reeping the benefits of older investments. Cheques will arrive on time, and if you have wanted to work overseas, 2011 will be auspicious for it. Buying or selling property is revealed towards the end of the year. Avoid getting involved in a relationship with a colleague after April 2011. From February 2011, you need to be careful while interacting with the boss to avoid angry outbursts. There is the danger of you giving in your resignation. Practicing meditation or yogic deep breathing will help keep your mind calm.
Advice from the Tarot: Continue to work on whatever project or issue you have before you, and see it to its logical end.
Health
Don't ignore respiratory ailments. Smokers will find it easy to kick the habit. Avoid frequent late nights and rich food.u00a0u00a0
There may be a health concern in: June, July, August, October, November, December.
Work through this karma: Try to be less moody, and be appreciative of family and true friends.


Leo
July 24 - Aug 23
Love, sex and relationships

Sridevi, Bollywood actor. Born on August 13

Single Leos need to wait patiently for the year to end to meet that special person. Be very sure you have the strength and courage to fight for your love (for instance, in case she/he belongs to a different caste or religion). Inability to do so will only create negative karma later. Certain circumstances make it easy to slip into a relationship that you may regret later. The Leo sexuality is powerful, dynamic and goal-oriented. Leos have little time for romance, and usually express their love only in the bedroom. They can be emotionally insensitive, but expect a frequent ego massage. Good include January, March, April, July, August andu00a0 November.
Career and financeu00a0
Beginning with a turbulent phase in office in January 2011, you gradually move towards being happy, content and are able to reach your goals. Some Leos may be more comfortable asking for a transfer to another branch or division in the present company. If you are considering giving in your resignation, keep in mind that it will take at least eight months to find another equally good job. Work related stress eases by July/August, and by September, you have received karmic justice. In February and March, there is a hint of losing something valuable, so be careful. Increased income, selling property and buying land is revealed.
Advice from the Tarot: Take small steps to complete a bigger dream.
Health
Keep blood pressure and cholesterol levels under check, and drink enough water. Drive carefully.u00a0u00a0
There may be a health concern in:u00a0January, February, June, September, November or December.
Work through this karma: Make more time for family.


Virgo
Aug 24 - Sept 23
Love, sex and relationships

Kareena Kapoor, Bollywood actor. Born on September 21
For many Virgos, 2011 is a landmark year for love and relationships. Your soulmate makes life worth living, and verbalising your love without being on the defensive, is good. Virgos find it difficult to get interested in people easily, so when you find someone to connect with, treasure it. Avoid an involvement with a colleague, since both of you will be travelling out of town on work together. Virgos planning to get married can do it at the end of the year or next year. Sometimes, sleeping over an issue helps, but avoid going to bed angry. Virgo sexuality emerges only when there is a perfect balance of intellect, emotions and friendship. A hug is more than welcome in January, March, April, July, August, September and December.
Career and finance
It is possible to follow your dream because daily expenses are taken care of in this karmic cycle of financial abundance. A reliable financial backer helps a project to move forward. For some, 2011 brings quite an increase in salary, and for others sale of property/ buying is revealed. There is travel in March, April, May and October and extra expenses will easily be taken care of. Be careful with jewellery and valuables in August. Business negotiations end positively with several contracts being signed. You move ahead of competitors because you are the best in your profession.
Advice of the Tarot:u00a0The power of love can change a karmic cycle in a most beautiful manner.
Health
You have entered a karmic cycle of better health; but continue to be careful of what you eat when lunching or dining out. Resistance to colds may be low.
There may be a health concern in: June, July, October, November and December.
Work through this karma: Have more confidence in yourself. It will help attract positive vibes.


Libra
Sept 24 - Oct 22
Love, sex and relationships

Ranbir Kapoor, Bollywood actor. Born on September 28
u00a0
Highs and lows in relationships will unfold. You can help the process along in a positive direction by being willing to talk over whatever is bothering you -- whether this means feeling unappreciated, slightly jealous or unsure, or even having second thoughts about a relationship. Married Librans will mellow down in 2011, and this brings feelings that were suppressed earlier to the fore. Being willing to see your spouse's/ partner's point of view in April lessens misunderstanding.
Older Librans in love feel an intensity that they haven't experienced in their youth. Libran sexuality is responsive. They respond to a partner who is willing to please. They love to be complimented on their technique, physique etc. Expect to receive compliments in January, March, April, June, July, October and December.
Career and financeu00a0
Each day throws up different challenges, and losing your temper is not recommended, particularly with the boss. Be calm in August and September if you want to avoid losing your job. An excellent job offer is axed down by family because it requires extensive travel. A partnership with a friend may not appeal to you. Finance improves after May, but work stress increases. Finances blocked from last year will be gradually released in May/June.
Advice from the Tarot: Continue to think positive, and make decisions with your heart chakra.
Health
Be extra careful about keeping the digestive system in shape. You may be prone to being forgetful in 2011.
There may be a health concern in: There could be a hospitalisation in July or August. Also be careful about your health in January, March, October and November.
Work through this karma: Accept the fact that setbacks are part of life.


Scorpio
Oct 23 - Nov 22
Love, sex and relationships

Shah Rukh Khan, Bollywood actor. Born on November 2

A good year for love and relationships, although unwanted and un-encouraged suitors could irritate you (but it will do the ego good). Expectant mothers must be careful not to tire themselves. Married Scorpios need to make a decision, which they have ignored so far (and the delay is creating unrest at the karmic level). If ending a marriage, divorce could take place this year. Single Scorpios fall madly in love, as their eyes lock across a crowded room, and everything else fades into the background. January to June is a short marriage 'dasha'. Scorpio sexuality is dynamic, voracious, overwhelming and fascinating. A Scorpio lover is not for the faint-hearted. Passionate months include January, March, June, August, September, November and December.
Career and finance
Opting for further studies helps secure a better job. May, June and July are good for negotiations. There is an extra expense in August and September, and an increase in finance is revealed from October. Career enters a period of karmic high in 2011, and ambitions are realised. Being posted overseas is a possibility, as is being offered a fabulous job. Do read the contract carefully, and take legal advice if needed. Work load is excessive in November and December.
Advice from the Tarot: Your patience will be rewarded and the final goal is worth waiting for.
Health
Weight may suddenly become an issue in 2011. Older Scorpios need to keep a tab on blood pressure. If you experience a burning sensation or feel bloated after meals, it could be more than just plain indigestion. Consult a specialist.
There may be a health concern in:u00a0January, May, July or August.
Work through this karma: Manage relationships ethically, keeping in mind that karma always leads to an outcome.


Sagittarius
Nov 23 - Dec 22
Love, sex and relationships

Brad Pitt, Hollywood actor. Born on Dec 18
u00a0
If anger sizzles just below the surface, then learn anger management, or there may be just a couple of friends left by the end of the year. Vibes emanating from you are gentler after August 2011. Single Sagittarians could meet their future spouse in interesting circumstances. Married Sagittarians have to meet a challenge, which is to avoid another relationship, after June 2011. Sagittarian sexuality is lively, lusty, uninhibited and enjoy impulsive displays of passion. Sex for them is fun and a pleasurable pursuit. Fun months are February, April, May, June, August, November, December.
Career and finance
A partnership with two people runs into rough weather during early 2011, and important decisions need to be made. A change of job or a transfer is likely after April 2011. With work pressure building up from April, differences of opinion can be exaggerated and lead to a volatile situation that needs huge doses of diplomacy to quieten. This resurfaces in October, with some gossip being spread about you. Financially, 2011 is a good year, allowing investments to be made. Added expenses in November and December do not make a dent in your wallet. A second source of income is also revealed. For self-employed Sagittarians, there is a regular income, but no major growth in the business. Held up payments might be released after June 2011.
Advice from the Tarot: Forgive and let go of anger and blame. You heal yourself when you forgive.
Health
There may be a general low feeling and lack of energy due to too many late nights and eating junk food. Dink enough water. Keeping a check on cholesterol levels is advised.
There may be a health concern in:u00a0February, April, May, August, September or October.
Work through this karma: Be more tolerant. It has an immediate impact on relationships.


Capricorn
Dec 23 - Jan 20
Love, sex and relationships

Salman Khan, Bollywood actor. Born on December 27
u00a0
The year is an important one for single Capricorns, who meet the love of their life, and the relationship matures gently into true love. If already in a relationship, sudden differences of opinion from April 2011 bring it to a shuddering halt. But fortunately there is a reconciliation after June.
Married Capricorns may suddenly turn needy for emotional strength. In fact, health of the spouse may be a question mark too. From July the vibes are settled and loving. Capricorns feel sexually self assured as they grow older, and their sexuality is powerful and strong. They are open to sexual experimentation. Exciting months include January, February, May, June, August and September.u00a0u00a0
Career and finance
It's a good year for career and finance. The Tarot reveals work-related travel from February to September 2011. A raise in salary promised last year will be realised in 2011. Someone new who joins the organisation may try to twist facts and create problems for you. Individual targets will be met by June. Sale of property is also revealed. Self-employed Capricorns have a regular income coming in, but will see no major profits. Yet, it will be a comfortable financial year.
Advice from the Tarot: Have confidence in yourself and try something new.
Health
Adopting a fitness regime and following a personalised diet is a good idea. Maintain good bone health. Frequent headaches may plague you in 2011.
There maybe a health concern in: January, February, March or September.
Work through this karma: Avoid taking practicality to the point that you appear insensitive.


Aquarius
Jan 21 - Feb 19
Love, sex and relationships

Jennifer Aniston, Hollywood actor. Born on February 11

The continuing journey towards true love and perfect understanding may be slightly rough at the beginning of the year (unless you have already decided to apply for a divorce, in which case you will be single by the year end). Understanding each other and falling more deeply in love is the outcome of several important issues that have to be resolved. Single Aquarians may be in the midst of two relationships; both of which will fizzle out by mid-year. If you are already in a long-term relationship, go out of your way to clarify misunderstandings and don't allow the ego to do the talking. There is karmic and legal justice in 2011. Aquarian sexuality is a little difficult to comprehend since they seem detached even when they are involved. They tend to get attracted to partners who come with unconventional ideas and unorthodox mindsets. Unusual sexual encounters worth looking forward to lie in February, May, June, July, August, November and December.
Career and finance
The year is important for mixed opportunities. Right decisions will be taken finally. Employed Aquarians achieve their ambitions and the company recognises your unique talent. There is a raise in salary after April. If looking for employment, after March, a good karmic cycle begins. Self-employed Aquarians see the profit graph move up at a regular pace in 2011. A new partnership may invite legal problems after five years.
Advice from the Tarot:u00a0Lead a simple life and divert energy into positive issues.
Health
Respiratory problems will plague smokers. It will be important to get enough sleep at night in 2011. You may make a conscious choice of turning vegetarian.
There may be a health concern in:u00a0January, March, June, July, November or December.
Work through this karma:u00a0With conviction comes a confidence to take necessary action.


Pisces
Feb 20 - March 20
Love, sex and relationships

Aamir Khan, Bollywood actor. Born on March 14
u00a0
Love proving to be true love is the theme for 2011, whether you are married, in a relationship, or looking for one (you'll find that special person after July). The worst is over, even if you continue to stubbornly refuse to see the logic behind someone's behaviour. Avoid arguing about a relative, because at a logical level, you know there is no solution (at least for the moment). Appreciate the love and caring you receive. Pisces sexuality is complex because there has to be the right amount of trust (they find it difficult to trust implicitly), love and affection, but with an underlying desire to be dominated. Piscean sexuality is fantasy-driven, and powerful, provided they find a partner they feel safe enough with. Exciting months for love include January, April, July, October, November and December.
Career and finance
Entering a karmic cycle of fame and recognition, Pisceans in general will be happier with their career. Some of you may sign a prestigious contract, bringing envy laced with respect. Employed Pisceans could receive three job offers at different times during the year. A transfer is possible after March 2011 and extensive travel is revealed in January, June and October. Your salary will see a raise to what you deserve, and investments are likely to be made in March, April and August 2011. Negotiations begun in July could bring positive results by December 2011.
Advice from the Tarot: Don't take on stress.
Health
Monitor blood pressure regularly and avoid stress. Do follow a regular distressing habit; try meditation. Take care of bone health. Consult your doctor if you feel low for no real reason.
There may be a health concern in:u00a0 January, April, June, July, October or December.
Work through this karma:u00a0 Try and find ways to be financially comfortable in the future too.
