Simha (Leo) weekly rashifal: 16 May - 22 May 2016 - Mixed

The weekly rashifal for Simha (Leo) Moon sign, 16 May to 22 May 2016. It follows where each planet stands counted from your Moon sign, the way a traditional rashifal does, and describes tendencies rather than certainties.

This is a mixed week: some areas move easily while others ask for patience. Lean on what is working and take the slower areas one step at a time.

How the week runs

  1. Monday, 16 May

    Mixed

    The Moon is in your own sign: a pleasant, easy day for comforts and good company.

    Later in the day the mood changes: Money and family talk can feel touchy today; keep spending small and words gentle.

  2. Tuesday, 17 May

    Mixed

    Money and family talk can feel touchy today; keep spending small and words gentle.

  3. Wednesday, 18 May

    Mixed

    Money and family talk can feel touchy today; keep spending small and words gentle.

Saturn, Sade Sati and Dhaiya

For now Mars obstructs the Sun's good results (vedha), so recognition and progress may come more slowly than this placement promises.
