Mesha (Aries) weekly rashifal: 16 April - 22 April 2018 - Go carefully

The weekly rashifal for Mesha (Aries) Moon sign, 16 April to 22 April 2018. It follows where each planet stands counted from your Moon sign, the way a traditional rashifal does, and describes tendencies rather than certainties.

This week asks for more care than most. Several of the important planets are in testing places, so keep to steady work, avoid hasty decisions and give things time.

Venus stands for love, comfort, beauty, pleasures and partnership.

Venus in your 2nd house favours money and happiness in the family. Good for savings and for pleasant gatherings.

For now Jupiter obstructs Venus's good results (vedha), so comforts and pleasant times may be fewer than this placement promises.

  • Family and home: home matters improve, but slowly.

Small, voluntary practices for the planets that ask for the most care this week. They cost nothing and promise no particular outcome; take up only what feels right.

For Mars, best on Tuesday

Mars is in a testing place for you, touching elders, teachers, faith and long journeys.

  • When anger rises, move first (a walk, some exercise) and speak later.
  • Avoid starting disputes on impulse; sleep on any confrontation.

For Sun, best on Sunday

Sun is in a testing place for you, touching your energy and confidence.

  • Show steady respect to your father, elders and people in authority, even when you disagree.
  • Let others take credit now and then; step back from ego-driven arguments.

Dates to note

  • 18 April 2018

    Turns retrograde: 18 April: Saturn turns retrograde in Sagittarius, your 9th house. A time to review rather than to begin.

    What to do: review, repair and finish old work rather than launching something new.
