Vrishchika (Scorpio) yearly rashifal 2018 - Go carefully

The yearly rashifal for Vrishchika (Scorpio) Moon sign for 2018. A year is shaped mostly by the slow planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu, and by the year's eclipses. Each is read here from your Moon sign, with its dates.

This year 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.

How the year runs

  1. First half of the year: 1 January to 30 June

    Go carefully

    This stretch asks for patience and care.

    Saturn, Jupiter and Rahu ask you to go carefully with money, family and speech as well as spending, rest and the inner life.

    Ketu would help with effort, courage and short trips, but is held back for now, so expect results to come slowly.

    Things shift around 31 January, 16 February, 9 March and 18 April; see the dates to note below.

  2. Second half of the year: 1 July to 31 December

    Go carefully

    This stretch asks for patience and care.

    Saturn, Jupiter and Rahu ask you to go carefully with money, family and speech as well as spending, rest and the inner life.

    Ketu would help with effort, courage and short trips, but is held back for now, so expect results to come slowly.

    Things shift around 10 July, 13 July, 28 July, 11 August, 6 September and 11 October; see the dates to note below.

Saturn in your 2nd house

Go carefully
Areas of life:MoneyFamily and home

Saturn stays in Sagittarius all year.

Saturn stands for hard work, discipline, duty and patience. It rewards steady effort and slows down shortcuts.

Saturn in your 2nd house can tighten money and strain family relations. Spend carefully and speak gently.

What it means for you

  • Money: spending can rise; avoid large purchases, lending and risky bets.
  • Family and home: small frictions at home are possible; patience and kind words help.

Jupiter in your 12th house

Go carefully
Areas of life:Spiritual lifeMoney

Jupiter is in Libra until 11 October 2018.

Jupiter stands for growth, wisdom, guidance, good fortune, children and teachers. It is the year's main helper.

Jupiter in your 12th house can raise spending and bring a restless, wandering feeling. Good for spiritual practice and charity, less so for big purchases.

What it means for you

  • Spiritual life: you may feel low or unsettled; quiet routines and prayer steady the mind.
  • Money: spending can rise; avoid large purchases, lending and risky bets.

Jupiter in your 1st house

Go carefully

Jupiter moves into Scorpio on 11 October 2018.

Jupiter stands for growth, wisdom, guidance, good fortune, children and teachers. It is the year's main helper.

Jupiter in your own sign can bring a feeling of being stuck or far from home. Keep faith, avoid big changes in haste and let plans mature.

What it means for you

  • You: mood and energy can dip; rest well and avoid reacting in haste.

Rahu in your 9th house

Go carefully
Areas of life:LearningSpiritual life

Rahu stays in Cancer all year.

Rahu stands for ambition, hunger for more, the new and the unusual. It can bring sudden openings and restlessness.

Rahu in your 9th house can shake faith or bring disagreements with teachers and elders. Stay grounded in what you know.

What it means for you

  • Learning: focus can scatter; take one subject at a time and revise well.
  • Spiritual life: you may feel low or unsettled; quiet routines and prayer steady the mind.

Ketu in your 3rd house

Held back
Areas of life:Career

Ketu stays in Capricorn all year.

Ketu stands for letting go, detachment and the inner life. It can bring quiet insight and a pull away from worldly matters.

Ketu in your 3rd house brings determination and success through effort. Courage and practical skill pay off.

For now Jupiter obstructs Ketu's good results (vedha), so results through effort may take longer to show.

What it means for you

  • Career: the support is there, but recognition comes more slowly than you hope.

Saturn, Sade Sati and Dhaiya

Sade Sati - setting phase

Saturn is in your 2nd house: the last phase of Sade Sati. Family and money matters need care, and the pressure begins to lift as the phase runs on.

Remedy for this year

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

For Saturn, best on Saturday

Saturn is in a testing place for you, touching money, family and speech.

  • Help elderly people or those who do hard physical work, in any way you can.
  • Accept that some results come slowly; keep going without forcing the pace.

For Jupiter, best on Thursday

Jupiter is in a testing place for you, touching spending, rest and the inner life.

  • Avoid overpromising and overextending; keep commitments you can meet.
  • Seek advice from a trusted elder before large decisions.
