Fortunately, Mars’ influence over its own Sign, in the 10th House, is likely to orient you in the right direction and also provide the essential zest. However, at the financial front, you may have to borrow money to manage the unexpected expenses that may crop up every now and then. Saving money is, unfortunately, out of question.

Thus, marital life, too, seems to be perfect this week. One thing you need to think seriously about is tightening your purse-strings, because expenses may soar this time around, cautions Ganesha.

Sagittarius ( 23rd November to 21st December ) : Family and finance seem to be the buzzwords this week, says Ganesha. The influence of Mars over the 2nd House where Mercury and Moon are posited, does not herald congenial times at the family front. A disagreement or argument with a member of your family over an important issue may abduct the harmony in your home. However, Jupiter shall help to lessen the negative influence.

At the domestic front, you are likely to be quite busy pleasing family members and sorting out Household issues. Cupid is about to strike, so be ready to wallow in the happiness of love.

Aquarius ( 21st January to 18th February ) : Smile, says Ganesha, as the week heralds a wonderful time for your marital life. You will be so much in love with your spouse that you may not want to spend a single moment without them. But remember that there are others things that may need urgent attention for example your financial front. While on one hand you may settle a few long-pending transactions at the beginning of the week, on the other hand you are advised to think twice before lending money to anybody. One wrong step at this front can cost you dearly, so be careful. As Moon will be entering your Sign during this week, you may be keen on experimenting new ideas, and other benign planets shall back your efforts. So, go for it! A business trip, if planned around weekend, is likely to prove fruitful. Be alert and do not use your cell phone while you are driving.

Pisces ( 19th February to 20th March ) : Your relationship with your spouse may have gone through tough times lately. You now need to sit down and discuss the problems, so that they do not fester and grow out of control.
