  • 2012 for Pisces

    Unlike your usual self, you will be filled with a desire to express yourself in the year 2012. Your confidence will improve, and you will look to broaden your vistas. And, about time too, says Ganesha! The results of this change in your outlook and attitude will be very visible – your social esteem will improve. A spiritual way of life has always enchanted you, and it will be the same now too! Yet, practicality is the call of the day. Your relationships and friendships may have been tested in the last few months. This year, you will need to come to terms with it all, and being realistic will come in handy, indicates Ganesha. Your financial situation may be swinging wildly in 2012. Although the year may have a fair share of challenges, you’ll handle it gracefully You may also be looking forward to occasions and celebrations to bring your family members closer. Bumping into a ‘special one’ at such an event is also a possibility. On the career front, this is a year full of possibilities. Health-wise the year looks benign, yet be careful of seemingly little health troubles.

     

    Home and Domestic Life

    Venus enters your 4th House on April 3, and stays there for the unusually lengthy period of four months, while Jupiter enters this House on June 11. Both are good omens for you, says Ganesha. Expect happiness and a buzz of activity on the home and family front. However, there are two challenges this year in the form of two eclipses in this House. But, if you concentrate all your positive energies and focus on this area, you will find the necessary determination to overcome any challenges cosmos may hurl at you, assures Ganesha. There are chances of setting up a little office at home, thanks to your career planet Jupiter and its entry to your House of domestic affairs. You may also look to expand one, if you already have it. And you may also look to promote your career with a little help from home. There could also be new career opportunities coming your way through family connections.

     

    Love Life

    Your 7th House of love and marriage has been occupied by Mars since a long time. As a general rule, this aspect is not propitious for love and matters of the heart. As result, your relationships may go through some trials and tribulations, says Ganesha. Conflicts of ego are also possible, but it will be best to steer clear of them – for your good. If your love bonds are strong enough, they will manage to weather the storms, assures Ganesha. If you are single, you will be more aggressive, more proactive than ever in love. Decisions about committing to a serious relationship may not be well thought of, though, so take care and shun your rose-tinted glasses for some time. Your love planet is Mercury, and this swift-moving planet goes retrograde three times in a year. These three phases during 2012 – March 12 to April 5, July 15 to August 7, and November 6 to November 25 – will not be not favourable for getting involved into/ starting a long-term relationship. You will need to patiently see off these three phases, says Ganesha.

     

    Health

    Your health is good this year, but Ganesha warns you to beware of accidents. As already said, all long-term planets will be in either a harmonious or a neutral aspect with your sign till June 11. In fact, your 6th House of health is empty, and you may not need to worry on account of planets, this year. However, don’t let any of this make you complacent. Jupiter’s mildly stressful aspect beginning June 11 should not be very bothersome, though. It is, rather, Mars in Virgo from the beginning of the year to July 3 that should cause you more concern on the health front. During this period there is a danger of accidents. You have a healthy but sensitive body, and with Neptune entering your 1st House, it may become even more sensitive. You will find yourself inclining towards spirituality, and you may consequently feel motivated to make appropriate changes to your diet and lifestyle.

     

    Career and Finance

    From a cosmic point of view, says Ganesha, you are being given financial independence, but it is also likely to heavily disturb the established status quo. As you are led towards financial freedom, many old patterns of thinking and working, and attachments to material things will have to be either abandoned or totally overhauled. You are still in only the second year of the seven-year-long influence of Uranus in your charts, and it is only after this phase is completed that you will be able to achieve and experience true financial freedom. So, carry on, unrelentingly, and your efforts shall be paid off. There are chances that your swinging fortunes may frustrate you, tire you or may even depress you – don’t accept defeat yet, for many of the changes happening now may have long-term implications on your financial future, and for good, says Ganesha!

  • 2012 for Scorpio

    The trends of last year continue this year for Scorpio, but with additional focus and augmented aspirations. Professional demands take up much of your time, and rightfully so, as everything else looks quite sorted. Although on the financial front, things remain largely unchanged, there are chances of profitable partnerships or lucrative ventures. Change is the keyword, even at work. Socialising, communications, information technology, spirituality and intellectual activities will take up your time and interest. Attending parties and rubbing shoulders with the high and mighty may become a part of your routine this year. Your love life looks scintillating for the major part of the year. However, don’t neglect your family amidst all the buzz. Your relationships and attitudes towards your domestic life look set to undergo major changes this year. Be accountable for your responsibilities, and it in turn shall help you avoid conflicts and arguments, says Ganesha. Stress may adversely affect your health, especially post October 2012. Take care while driving and performing mundane tasks around the house.

     

    Highlights and Major Trends

    After having stayed for many years in your 4th House of home and family, Neptune now exits Aquarius and enters your 5th House of Pisces. Here, too, Neptune will be anchored for many more years. Ganesha says this shows that your personal interests too are now becoming more elevated, and you are leaning more and more towards all things spiritual. You will prefer to spend your leisure time in spiritual pursuits rather than watching films or engaging in other worldly entertainment activities. The influence will rub off on children too. The trends of last year continue this year as far as your love and family life are concerned. Many of you married or got involved in long-term love affairs last year, and there will be no change on this front till June 11. Also, you seem to be more sexually driven, which is a good thing for your sign, as you need a constant creative outlet. The ruling planet of your horoscope, Pluto, has been camping in your 3rd House of communication since 2008 and will stay there for many more years. This indicates that communications and intellectual activities will dominate your life. You will broaden your horizons of knowledge. Throughout the year, Pluto will be in a square aspect with the tumultuous Uranus, so you will have to drive carefully and avoid risky ventures. Saturn too has been present in your 12th House of spirituality for the last two years, and will stay there for almost the whole of this year.

     

    Home and Domestic Life

    Unlike in recent years, your 4th House of home and family is less powerful this year. Neptune moves out of this House on February 3 and enters your 5th House where it will stay for many years. Moreover, last year, your family planet Uranus entered Aries, your House of health. All these transits indicate that this is a tumultuous year for family life. Relationships and attitudes will undergo major changes this year. You will be more mindful of the health of your family than your own, especially of an elderly member of the family. In recent years, your home has been a sort of an entertainment centre, but now you turn it into more of a health centre. You will buy and set up health and exercise equipment in your home, while removing all such equipment that may be hazardous to health, for example toxic paint or furniture with sharp edges. Ganesha says there will be opportunities to shift home in June and July, but many of you, especially those who shifted in recent years, will prefer to stay where you are.

     

    Love and Social Life

    This year, just like last year, at least till June 11, is very favourable for love. Marriages, or relationships that are equally intimate, are strongly indicated by Jupiter which is in your 7th House. If they didn’t materialise last year, they are likely to happen this year. At any rate, says Ganesha, you will certainly have a very active social life, what with you throwing and attending parties, making friends with the high and mighty and getting invited to the best dos in town. Paint the town red, but be careful of yourself and your energy, warns Ganesha. What’s more, most of the people with whom you are socialising will be the ones with whom you work – business partners, associates, colleagues. Your love life and financial life are intricately woven together. And this is a good thing for you, this year, confirms Ganesha. Not just your friends, but even your spouse is getting richer now, and you will have all the support that they or their wealth can offer.

     

    Health

    Even though there are no problems on the health front – in fact, for most of you health this year is much better than last year – you are focused on your 6th House of health because of your eagerness  not only to maintain and improve your health but also to prevent health problems in future. Neptune transits from a stressful to a harmonious aspect for you on February 3, while Jupiter will be in a stressful aspect till June 11, after which it will drift away. Ganesha warns that you may expect Saturn to kick off a long-term stressful aspect when it enters your sign on October 5. You are experimenting a lot in matters of health, which is perhaps because of the presence of Uranus in your 6th House, where it will stay put for many more years. You will prefer to go in for alternative medicine therapies, rather than traditional methods, and by trial and error you will begin to learn to observe the reactions of your body to various techniques, whether it is reiki or acupressure or reflexology. Ganesha says the point to remember here is that you are beginning to realise that what suits someone else may not necessarily suit you, and the other way round.

     

    Career and Finance

    Your financial House is not too powerful this year, so financial matters will remain more or less in limbo, ie there will not be many changes this year. The planetary dynamics are not exerting any pulls and pressures, except for a lunar eclipse on June 4th which will cause minor tweaking in your financial matters. Jupiter, your financial planet, moved into your 7th House in June last year, and will stay there till June 11 this year. Ganesha says that for singles this move indicates a marriage with someone rich, while for those who are married, it indicates that there will be financial support forthcoming from the spouse. This transit could also indicate a profitable partnership, or some lucrative venture. Friends too will support you not only financially, but also by opening up new opportunities for you. Way to go!

  • 2012 for Aquarius

    The year 2012 is likely to mark a significant development on the personal as well as professional front for you. Home and family activities will come to the fore, and you will try your best to fulfil the demands of your loved ones. Some transformations are in store on this front, but they will be for the better, says Ganesha. For singles, chances are bleak for a committed relationship, but remain optimistic and don’t let a personal crisis affect your career. Barring a few glitches, the year 2012 looks set to be quite positive for you. Married ones may be planning a baby. Owing to a major move by Uranus, you may see your belief systems and preferences getting altered, though. Your creativity will peak, and your skills and true potential shall find an outlet. Now, that’s going to be very satisfying! However, be cautious while signing any legal documents or getting into any deals, as a secret clause may lead to misunderstandings, warns Ganesha. Communications, new-age technology and gadgetry will hold your attention like nothing else does. Do take time out to relax and de-stress, though.

     

    Home and Family Life

    Jupiter is transiting through your 4th House, the House of home, and the transit shall continue till June 11. This transit will augur winds of change, and they may begin with some tangible changes in form of either a new home, a refurbished one or an addition to the family unit by the way of marriage of birth. In 2012, Ganesha says, friendships will flourish, and there will be a good rapport between your friends and your family members. You are blessed to have some loyal and supportive friends who will help you achieve the goals you set for your family. The time is good for prosperity and family support too. Enjoy!

     

    Love and Social Life

    Expect no major changes to occur in your love life, as there are not going be any major cosmic pulls, pressures or even movements on this front. However, this does not mean that there will not be any romantic opportunities. In fact, casual link-ups and flings are likely, but refrain from reading too much into a casual relationship. And, if you see any potential, slow down and test the waters first, advises Ganesha. For those of you who are gearing up for marriage, the favourable phases during which you will be presented with many chances are from March 20 to March 31, July 22 to August 1, and September 6 to 14. However, make sure you choose the right person to be your life partner.

     

    Health

    Your 6th House of health is not strong, but you don’t have to worry about it as the long-term planets are favouring you. Ganesha advises you to regularly go for massages and relaxation therapies, so that you make your health even better. Allow rest for your ankles and calves, have a balanced diet and detox every once in a while. You need emotional harmony and a peaceful domestic life to feel completely healthy and well. This need can be attributed to the Moon, your health planet. So, keep your moods as positive as possible, because a negative mood can develop into distress/ depression, if you are not alert enough to nip it in the bud, says Ganesha.

     

    Career and Finance

    This year will mostly be a continuity of the trends that you witnessed last year. Your planet of finance, Neptune, which also happens to be the most spiritual of all planets, will exert even more influence on all your activities and decisions, especially as it will be in its own sign and House. You depend heavily on your instincts in financial matters. Not that your intuition leads you in the wrong direction, but it’s advisable that you back your insights with some real research, advises Ganesha. Scrutinize the fine print with a magnifying glass before committing yourself to any monetary deal.

  • 2012 for Taurus

    Being health-conscious is not new for you, but this may become a passion now, indicates Ganesha. Your sincere attempts to maintain a healthy lifestyle will yield positive results, more than ever, in the year 2012! To help you further, stars will ease off all health-related issues in 2012. Finances, career, love, spirituality and social welfare are other areas that will remain in focus. This year also heralds a prosperous time for bulls, thanks to the optimistic planet Jupiter. Travel, family time, joyous occasions – the truly good things in life will be on offer! Cash inflow will be more than decent, and an inheritance may also be in the offing. You may even be able to arrange funds for your ambitious ventures. Splurging on attaining the luxuries of life is also on the cards. Do guard against over-spending and rash behaviour, though. Love life and family may become a cause of stress. And your inability to handle delicate situations tactfully may worsen the situation, warns Ganesha. Try and resolve conflicts, rather than adding fuel to them. Marrying in 2012 is not a good idea.

     

    Home and Family Life

    The stars suggest that there are going to be no major changes on the domestic front in the year 2012. Yet, even if things don’t take a turn for the better, they will not change for the worse either, assures Ganesha.  From May 6 to 14, your family planet, the Sun, will be travelling with Jupiter. This is a favourable aspect. You may look to renovate or expand your current home, or may also move to another home for good. The days between July 22 and August 22, and between September 6 and October 5 are favourable days for home and family matters. At the time of solar eclipses, though, some problems and misunderstandings may resurface in your personal life. Rein in your anger at the times of family disagreements or conflicts to steer clear of any major issues later.

     

    Love and Social Life

    Sometimes the weight of expectations in relationships becomes too much to bear, muses Ganesha. And it may pull you down this year. But then, there are no free lunches in this world. Each relationship comes with its perks and demands. Face the responsibilities with courage, and if need be discuss things candidly. Such heart-to-heart chats can give your relationship a new lease of life. Make sure you reach the root cause of your conflicts, and work together with your beloved to uproot it completely. Such an approach will help you sail though the year on a high note. Saturn will enter your 7th House, that is the House of love and marriage, towards the end of the year 2012. This could be a tricky phase, and you will need to be very patient and careful in matters of heart and esteem. Your social standing matters a lot to you, and you would do well to guard it at all times.

     

    Health

    In the year 2012, your aim will be improving your health and fitness in a holistic way. Your 6th House, the House of health, indicates that matters related to health are going to be in focus during the year 2012. However, you are advised to not make a mountain out of a molehill, when it comes to health related issues. There may be times when you’ll feel tired or stressed out. You may also fall sick. But, there is nothing to worry; you need not hit the panic button, assures Ganesha. All major long-term planets are, for a good part of the year, in a good aspect and when they are not, they wil hardly affect you by their positions. All in all, barring few problems, your health throughout the year is likely to be good.

     

    Career and Finance

    Money may pour in from many directions in 2012. Moreover, your business decisions may turn out to be lucrative and give your better than expected results. In the year 2012, your career planet is going to be in your 12th House. This planetary position indicates that you will continue to stay focused on your career for a long time. However, increasing your bank balance and achieving targets should not be your only consideration, says Ganesha. Rather, you should do something for society, too. While you are likely to have smooth sailing on the financial front, a few matters related to your career may give you some sleepless nights. You may want choose a career option that would allow you more freedom. A business venture or a freelance project may fit the bill.

  • 2012 for Gemini

    In 2012, Ganesha nods at your never-say-die spirit! You may have had some really tough challenges to face in the past few years. If not, then at least some major life-altering adjustments may have taken up your time and energy. Expect things to improve. In 2012, Neptune enters your 10th House. This will boost your spirituality and faith. Matters related to body, health, your personal image, creativity, family and mystical sciences shall be of great interest to you. Barring a few minor issues, your health is likely to be good throughout the year. Don’t be complacent, though! Expect prosperity to get a boost mid-year, thanks to Jupiter. You will have money to spend on the luxuries of life. You may be looking at renovating your living space or may even be re-thinking a relationship. If a friend/ relative is taking up a lot of your time, it’s time to say ‘me first’. Do that and bid them a goodbye, says Ganesha! Guard you and your loved ones against minor accidents. You may also see love and work intermingling. Enjoy!

     

    Home and Family Life

    Your 4th House of home and family shall remain strong for a better part of the year 2012; not for the whole year, though. Mars hovers in this House for a pretty long duration – for over six months from January 1 to July 3. This means that you will undertake a thorough overhauling of your home. Whatever it is, it will keep you happily on your toes. However, your domestic life may become tumultuous during the period when Mars transits over your sign. Tempers will run high in the household, and if you don’t take charge of things in a mature way, it may lead to conflicts. An elderly person or a parent may not have been keeping well. Advise this person to calm down. Keep away dangerous objects like matches, knives, or inflammable material from you and your loved ones. But rest assured that things will be happy and endings will be happier, especially if you are ready to go an extra mile, sums up Ganesha.

     

    Love and Social Life

    Love is most certainly on the cards this year for you. There are signs in your horoscope that strongly indicate a gradual building up of your love and social life, even though your 7th House of love and marriage is rather weak. Two vital planetary movements are indicated this year for your sign. Jupiter (your love planet) will be passing through your ascendant, and will foray into the 1st House on June 11. For the remaining year, it will continue to remain in your 1st House. This strongly portends love. Besides that, Venus (the generic love planet) will hover above your zodiac for a rather lengthy period. Usually, Venus spends around a month in any sign, but in your case, it’s staying put from April 3 to August 7. It is yet another strong sign of love present or blossoming in all its glory. From June 11 to August 7, both the love planets in your charts will remain in your own sign. So, you can be sure that love, perhaps even marriage, will happen this year.

     

    Health

    Health of Gemini this year should be satisfactory. The aspect of most of the long-term planets looks set to be harmonious. At the most, they will leave you untouched. An unfavourable aspect made by Neptune, though, may stress you out briefly. Besides that, there may be passing phases during the year, resulting from general planetary transits, during which you may feel a little under the weather. But you need not worry about these bouts, because they do not indicate trends, and are only temporary.

     

    Career and Finance

    You may look forward to a financially progressive year, during which you’ll see an augmentation in your wealth, earnings and even the value of your property. The results may not be drastically visible in the first half of the year. But, post June 11, your prosperous phase will set in and will continue into the following year, confirms Ganesha. In the first week of June Jupiter enters your sign, bringing with it a lot of optimism. People usually mistake wealth for a load of money, whereas it is actually the lifestyle and a general ease with which you go about your work, business or money-related tasks. As far as your career is concerned, matters seem to be a bit more complex, though. Rein in your own expectations from your career.

  • 2012 for Cancer

    If you managed to handle events of the last year decently, things will seem easy in comparison in 2012. Expect the year to get better as it progresses towards the latter half, says Ganesha. All said and done, you still need to take a good care of yourself, your health and your loved ones. Health will improve this year, thanks to Neptune’s favourable aspect with your sign, yet you can’t afford to be careless. Home, family, love, spirituality, as always, will surely remain at the centre of your universe, yet you may now see yourself trying to enhance your social network too. Travelling to foreign lands and higher education are distinct possibilities. Personal growth, development and creativity will also take centre-stage. Ganesha cautions you against getting complacent in financial and legal matters, though. Family matters may become burdensome. Ganesha advises you to take up a hobby to get a break from your mundane life. Some unique challenges may also be lined up for your sign this year. Express yourself, wherever needed! Any upheaval in your love life will have a positive bearing in the long run.

     

    Home and Family

    Your domestic life is likely to go through a lot of ups and downs in 2012. But don’t let the negativity affect you, if you wish to successfully deal with the challenges. You are not an expressive person and this usually becomes your disadvantage. Your bottled-up emotions can be a lot more destructive than you can imagine. But there’s only so much you can bottle up, and one day your heart may just refuse to contain anything more. Thus, you need to express your emotions in a mature way, without hurting anyone, and perhaps also channelize your negativity in different ways. Try taking up a hobby or sweating it out on the badminton court. Saturn exits your 4th House on October 5, bringing great relief on the home front. The worst will be over by then, and you will make great progress from here on, assures Ganesha.

     

    Love and Social Life

    Last year may have been quite challenging for your love life. If your relationship has survived that, there are strong indications that you will easily sail through the problems, if any, in 2012. Some problems simmering under the surface may come to fore now. Be ready to deal with them upfront, rather than avoiding them. As always, you will remain in love with your home, and your respect for your immediate/ extended family may increase with time. Single crabs may find someone special, and this may finally end their quest for a perfect companion. However, marriage will have to wait, and it’s best to do that; wait and watch, says Ganesha.

     

    Health

    Throughout the year ahead, you will be extremely busy with household work, socialization and career matters. All of that may adversely affect your energy levels. Don’t take you health for granted. Any major health issue is not indicated, yet you cannot afford to become complacent. In fact, make extra efforts to be fit, as a healthy body and mind will guard you against plenty of ailments. Don’t bottle up your emotions; express them candidly as this will help you vent out your feelings. You will feel lighter and relaxed, as a result.

     

    Finance and Career

    In 2012, your earning capacity will be correlated with your energy levels. So improve your health and energy levels in order to improve your finances. From July 23 to August 22, and then again from September 6 to October 3 your money House will be strong – first, because the Sun transits through it, and also because during this period Venus passes through it. These are the two time periods when your earning potential will be at a peak. As for your career, it may not create a definite trend in the coming year. Those of you who were born early in the sign of Cancer would have experienced many career-related upheavals last year, and Ganesha advises you to brace up for more. You may feel disappointed with your current career, and may choose to opt for something that would give you more freedom.

  • 2012 for Leo

    The year 2012 looks set to be another happy one for lions, especially till October. Post that as well, there won’t be much to worry, assures Ganesha. Expect your health and energy levels to peak, making it possible to do so much – all that your fertile imagination may have envisaged. Career success is more or less a surety this year, thanks to the optimistic planet of Jupiter. Your social stars will be brilliant. The success and good times will make you confident, and may spur you into taking financial risks. While being aggressive gives you an edge over others, and often tends to bring better gains, being impatient and hasty may lead you into making faulty decisions, cautions Ganesha. The same goes for your love life. It looks set to be tumultuous in the coming time. You may feel emotionally drained or ready to explode. Slow down and first assess what’s damaging your relationship or domestic bliss. The reason may be a third party altogether! You may feel overburdened with responsibilities, but you need to recognize that there are no free lunches in this world, points out Ganesha.

     

    Home and Family Life

    Possibility of random differences and conflicts arising on the domestic front is high, foretells Ganesha. Home and family have been troublesome areas for your sign for a few years now. Ganesha assures that while you shall be able to handle most of these problems, there may be one or two particular problems, which may turn out to be too complex to deal with. Your beloved may also have a tough time adjusting with your immediate family or family responsibilities. On the other hand, your own family may pose troubles on the same (or some other) account. Heated arguments, family issues and misunderstandings may disturb your peace of mind. It is advisable that you address such situations with immediate effect, and try your best to mend fences before it gets too late.

     

    Love Life

    Your House of love – the 7th House – has been very strong and as a result, your love life looks set to have been a joyful, even if slightly tumultuous, ride in the past few years. This trend may change this year, as a few short-term planets will move into the 7th House, causing some temporary shifts in your love life. Post this phase, your 7th House may also remain empty for some duration. A few short-term planets will move into the House, but, again, for brief durations. This implies that your love life may remain stagnant for the most part of the year. Uranus, your love planet, will spend the year mostly in a square aspect to Pluto. Such a planetary position has the capability to produce fiery results – all of which may not be negative. If you are single, don’t make any hasty decisions, advises Ganesha.

     

    Health

    Your cards indicate that you will be in good shape all through the year. Uranus has been in a favourable aspect with your sign, and this year on February 3 Neptune, too, shall recede from a stressful aspect in your sign. Moreover, your 6th House, the House of health is going to be occupied by favourable planets. Hence, as far as your health is concerned, 2012 shall bear many positive results. However, post October 5, when your health planet Saturn will enter the sign of Scorpio, you will have to be extra careful about your health and energy levels. In case of an illness, try alternative healing therapies rather than following the beaten track, advises Ganesha.

     

    Career and Finance

    You will look to enhance your financial independence and wealth in the year 2012, predicts Ganesha. This drive may make you more fearless, and you may take risks in order to fulfil your ambitions. However, Ganesha advises you to be careful in this regard. All your strategies may not give you expected results. Failure teaches the most important lessons of life, they say. You will make mistakes, but will be quick to learn from them. This and a strict vigil can help you inch closer to success. On the career front, you are likely to excel. Expect promotions, increments and a rise in status. You may also come across some wonderful career opportunities during the year. Give some thought to each of these opportunities, even if you are not looking for a change immediately, advises Ganesha.

  • 2012 for Virgo

    There may have been additions to your life in terms of marriage or subtractions from it in terms of a relationship break-up in the last few years. Challenges were here, there and everywhere for your zodiac sign. The changes lined up for the year 2012 will bring you much-needed respite. Finance, work, health, higher education, foreign travel, career and personal transformation will be in focus this year. You will be conscious about your physical fitness, but don’t over exert yourself, advises Ganesha. Health is still delicate, due to Jupiter’s unfavourable aspect. The same aspect shall be fruitful for your career, though. Your financial position may not be very encouraging. However as the year progresses, expect things to change for the better. Never forget the lessons you’ve learnt in the past; times are changing, and for good. Your love life may continue to go through a testing phase. Look at the positives; the downtime will allow you to assess your needs and mistakes, says Ganesha.

     

    Home and Domestic Life

    Your home and family circumstances must have eased since 2008 when Pluto exited Sagittarius, but for 15 years prior to that things would have been rather depressing, says Ganesha. However, 2012 will be bright and cheerful, but it will not be too eventful. No major changes are foreseen, least of all shifting to another home. You are free to do so if you choose to, but in all likelihood, you won’t be keen on it. Being a stability-loving sign, you shall be more than happy with the status quo. However, the lunar eclipse on June 4 may cause you some temporary stress, bringing to the fore the residue of lingering resentments. This will actually help you in making the final corrections and adjustments in your domestic life, and, thankfully, they will be nowhere near as harsh or distressing as they were before 2008. Your family planet, Jupiter, will remain in Taurus till 11th June, 2012, and this indicates stability which you would rather not disturb, as you have been through too much turbulence already. Jupiter in your 9th House indicates an inclination towards religion, spirituality and advanced studies. Family support also will be more forthcoming, assures Ganesha.

     

    Love and Social Life

    Uranus exited your 7th House last year, and as a result, your love life is likely to have become more peaceful. You will be more relaxed, and the aftermath of a strong relationship jolt will, finally and duly, be fading this year. This calmness may appear to be rather strange to you, maybe even dull, but you’ll happily accept it after all these years of turmoil. One thing is sure, that the whole feel will be quite soothing, assures Ganesha. There will be a definite sense of stability and security, so refreshing after instability. In a significant move, Neptune enters your 7th House, which is its own sign and House, a powerful situation for you to be in. It portends very well for love, says Ganesha. A satisfying love life is on the cards now. Lofty as your love ideals are, the presence of Neptune will elevate them even more in the year 2012. Creative interests shall also get a boost in this period, thanks to this aspect. You are also likely to meet dancers, artists, poets, astrologers, etc.

     

    Health

    You have always given utmost importance to your health, and your approach to it has largely been shaped by the presence of Neptune in your 6th House for the last 14 years. You will also realise that love and affection have a direct impact on your well-being, says Ganesha. You may also have explored various spiritual dimensions of healing. However, in 2012 you may not be very mindful of your health, certainly not as careful as before. More so, because Neptune is preparing to leave your 6th House. Nothing to worry, though! This just means that health shall no longer remain at the top of your priority list, and Ganesha sees no great harm in this. If your health is perfectly fine, you may not need an exclusive focus on it. You can concentrate your energies in other areas. Find a hobby, nurture a passion and give some food to your grey cells – after all mental well-being is as important.

     

    Career and Finance

    Your monetary situation has not been very encouraging for the past two years, and there seems no respite in sight, at least for the better part of 2012. However, times are improving with each day, and the nightmare is, more or less, over. You may now be reorganizing your finances, which was actually badly needed, says Ganesha. In 2012, you will need to put on your thinking cap and meticulously plan out your expenses and savings. You have been doing a lot of financial planning during the last two years, but it was more about financial management than actual cash inflow and bank balance. The planetary positions, this year, shall be helping you take better control over your finances. You will now spend money more judiciously, as your parameters of ‘necessity’ may have undergone a change, for good. You will also be able to differentiate between ‘desire’ and ‘need’, and act accordingly. Thus, all in all, Ganesha sees you becoming wiser about money matters.

  • 2012 for Aries

    The overall theme will be of ‘change’. The more ready you will be for it, the better, says Ganesha. Expect things to pick up gradually as the year 2012 progresses. As always, personal freedom will be important to you. But this year, activities related to social welfare, sensual pleasures and communications will come to the fore too. Focus on letting go of the past, getting a strong hold over your finances and sprucing up your act in the personal domain. Physical exercise will, as always, hold a place of pride in your schedule. Remaining active will also help you attain a better life. You may also be travelling a lot in 2012. Post October 2012, once Saturn moves out of Libra, your life will become easier and more comfortable. Matters related to your health, profession and prosperity will get a boost. In the domain of love, disappointments and setbacks may have been the order of the day, especially last year. Things may improve, but be careful before investing your trust and emotions in any casual relationship this year. Ganesha advises you to remain calm and positive. Use any alone time to augment your earning capacity.

     

    Home and Family Life

    Travelling and globetrotting may make you spend a considerable amount of time away from family and home. However, good news is that you may be able to sort out some long-standing family issues this year. Be ready to accept responsibilities, as this will help you avoid problems on the domestic front. Brace up for some changes too, which will, in all likelihood, bear positive long-term results. Uranus in your 1st House may also make you quite restless. Tame the extra energy by being positive and investing some time in your hobbies and tasks allotted by your loved ones. Look to make the best use of the two lunar eclipses in 2012 – 4th June 2012 and 28th November 2012, as Moon will help you sort home matters this year. You will also be motivated to sort out long-standing conflicts and misunderstandings in the family with this trend.

     

    Love and Social Life

    Saturn, the disciplinarian, has been in your 7th House for quite some time now. This shall continue to be the case till October 2012. Your love life may continue to remain dull, and your eternal quest for freedom may affect your intimate relations. However, you can mend broken hearts by expressing your emotions, and putting in more efforts to revive a stale relationship. Delay important decisions, especially if they are related to a relationship, a new affair or marriage. Single rams may get attracted to somebody older and more influential, and their relationship could be a sort of career move. Whatever it may be, Ganesha advises you to take your time in these matters. On the social front though, things may seriously hot up; casual friendships, flings etc are possible

     

    Health

    The planetary positions suggest that throughout the year ahead, especially from January to June, you will be focused on your physical fitness and overall health. An exercise regime and other activities will help you remain in good shape and will help you enhance your appearance and self-esteem. Although you may be trying hard to maintain your health, your energy and enthusiasm level may take a beating, mostly owing to stress, overwork and relationship issues. Take it easy, advises Ganesha. And, avoid shoving the issues under the carpet. Face them, and you will feel much relaxed. Avoid unnecessary risks in sports and games.

     

    Career and Finance

    A substantial increase in the value of your assets is likely this year. Jupiter will be in your money House until 11th June 2012. By then, you will have achieved a lot of your financial goals, foretells Ganesha. You need to be clear about what money means to you, and how you want to get it. This is because Jupiter, the planet of philosophy and religion, is associated with wealth this year. Therefore you should have your own philosophy about financial matters in order not to make mistakes. If what you think and perceive is not right, it may negatively affect your ability to earn. Ganesha also advises you to sort out your love-related issues, as this aspect of your life tends to greatly affect your ability to earn. The more stable you are in your personal and love life, the more stable your financial status will be.

  • Pay up or face the music, PPL tells major hotels & pubs

    By A Correspondent

     

    The city may fall short of venues to welcome the New Year this time as the Phonographic Performance Ltd. (PPL) has served notices to many well-known hotels and pubs. These legal notices have been issued to venues that have not paid the requisite music license fee to play music at their year-end events. PPL plans to initiate strict legal action against defaulters in case the license fee is paid ahead of their planned events. The following hotels have been given interim injunction by the Delhi High Court: Radisson Blu Hotel, Paschim Vihar, Hype at Shangri-La Hotel, QBA, Sheraton Hotel, Hilton Hotel, Double Tree Hilton, ChalChitra, Crowne Plaza, Wyndham Hotel, Club Sirocco, Nautica, Play Lounge Bar, 3 Stories, The Glassy Junction, Hang Out, Club Headquarters, Pritampura. PPL has issued notices to all prominent places which have failed to pay music license fee across the country.

     

    Vipul Pradhan, CEO, PPL said: “New Year parties attract people promising them a good time through a combination of entertainment, food and beverage. A significant component of the sum charged from the customers is for music. Therefore, the music companies whose sound recording is regularly used have a right towards claiming their due because their product is also getting consumed.”

     

    Any performance of Indian or even international music, in public places or commercial establishments such as hotels & resorts, restaurants, bars, pubs, discotheques, cruise liners, cinema halls, shops, offices, and so on, rendered without first having obtained a licence from PPL constitutes an infringement of Copyright under the Copyright Act,  1957. Under the statutory sanction of section 35 in the Indian Copyright Act, playing commercial music in public without paying the requisite license fee is an offence liable to contempt of court. Section 35 grants exclusivity to PPL to issue licenses to hotels/ pubs for playing music during the events in their respective premises. The tariff for the same is calculated on the basis of the number of hours the music is to be played and the number of people expected to attend the event.

     

    “Musical nights and customized New year events rake in huge revenues for organizers. A year ending event cannot be imagined without music! Yet, when it comes to paying for the commercial use of music, the event organizers chose to evade the license fee,” said Mr. Sowmya Chowdhury, Country Head, PPL.

     

    Mr Avinash D’Souza, National Sales Manager, PPL feels: “Music labels have complete authority over the sound recordings and using them without a proper license can bring the events & parties to a standstill. People should also act proactively and check with their chosen properties to avoid a last minute inconvenience or embarrassment. To prevent such situations, this year we have expanded our operations to a National Campaign in all major cities.”

     

    Every year pubs/ hotels target revenues with customized New Year packages but are reluctant to pay a nominal license fee (which varies depending on the number of hours for which the music is played) to PPL. Thus, flouting the norms and eating into the royalties of the music labels. DJs, too, need to abide by PPL guidelines if they continue to play music without paying the license fees.
