Vrishchika (Scorpio) weekly rashifal: 23 January - 29 January 2012 - Mixed

The weekly rashifal for Vrishchika (Scorpio) Moon sign, 23 January to 29 January 2012. It follows where each planet stands counted from your Moon sign, the way a traditional rashifal does, and describes tendencies rather than certainties.
