 Here's What 2019 Holds for You, Based on Your Sign

ARIES

21th MARCH–19th APRIL

Astro

This year, the more you try to push things forward, the more roadblocks you’re likely to encounter. Instead, use this time to take stock of what you’ve accomplished so far, and what you want to achieve. Things are looking good at work—go after what you want, and you shall be rewarded. Spend more time with loved ones, and avoid confiding your secrets to people other than long-standing well-wishers. Marriage is also on the cards. PS: don’t blow up your cash on things you don’t need immediately.

Tarot

This looks like a great year for you, Aries. During the first quarter, you’ll be focused on making money. In order to do so, you’ll come up with new ideas and endeavours, which will soon bear fruit. This year indicates that a partnership—either professional or personal—will come to an end due to irreconcilable issues. You might move overseas for a job or because of a loved one. Do take many short breaks to recharge and release any negativity.

TAURUS

20th April–21th May

Astro

Fasten your seat belt as the year ahead is going to be a roller-coaster ride. 2019 will be ideal for pushing yourself harder towards progress. You shall come to possess great clarity, but expect some huge challenges too. Have faith in your abilities to tackle these, and you’ll come out victorious. Whether you’re in love or not, expect passions to be rekindled in a major way. Be patient and be honest—if you’re truly a ‘power couple’, the relationship will evolve along with you!

Tarot

During the start of the year, money matters will rule your mind, and you may begin to feel that you’ve made a mistake. But your financial position will improve considerably, and success will come through improved business, new opportunities, and recognition for your talents in the second quarter. Take a short break before starting anything new this year—it’ll fill you with great creative energy. Some unexpected news is going to overthrow existing conditions and bring new opps your way...go for it!

GEMINI

22th May–20th June 

Astro

This is a smooth year for you, Gemini, but not a particularly remarkable one. Overall, you may emerge feeling that you could have done much better, but you won’t be disappointed, either. Staying grounded and centered will help you conserve energy and cut out distractions. Love is in the air, and relationships will bloom in 2019. Your financial position looks good, too, and if you’ve been waiting to spend big bucks on something, now is the time.

Tarot

You’ll be busy decluttering your life in the first few months—this is an important year for you, so concentrate on yourself. Money that’s owed to you will find its way back. If you’re thinking of starting a new venture, it’ll take off by March. An old love may rekindle...this time for good! Do work on your health, your body needs some TLC, too.

CANCER

21th June–22nd July 

Astro

You’ll emerge as an independent person this year. Your gut knows what’s up, and it will help in any tricky situations. While the influx of money looks good, you’ll also be tempted to spend more. Your health will be at its best and energy levels at a premium. Your finances will be in good shape, and you shall pursue creative things—and family time—which will make you very happy.

Tarot

Your work will start off bright, and then turn dark, and then bright again. Don’t worry, after a slight reversal you’ll see material gain. Withhold judgment for now, and don’t make premature evaluations. You will want the same things as before, but with a different partner. Remember, it can’t be the same as it has been.

LEO

23rd July–22nd August  

Astro

This year is a good period to implement new growth plans. You’ll be flush with cash, with money pouring from different sources. Familial ties look good, and a new love interest is likely to blossom. As far as health is concerned, this year might pose a few problems, but nothing too serious.

Tarot

You might take a break from your work or current project and do something more pleasurable. Something that moves you from behind the scenes to centre-stage. You’ll succeed in overcoming difficult situations, and in getting help whenever you require. Money may cause you some heartburn, but cash from an unexpected source will ease things. A suitor is going to try and win your heart—and he just might. You will finally take some much-needed time off, nursing yourself back to good health.

VIRGO

23rd August–22nd September 

Astro

This year will come with great opportunities and you will do whatever you can to make quick progress. For one, your siblings will be a source of joy, as much as your colleagues and neighbours. Looking at coupling up? You’re likely to find your lobster—just think of everything you’ve ever wanted in a relationship and it’ll manifest. Your social life too will be on fire, bringing in many new (important) contacts your way. Plus, 2019 promises several short breaks that’ll keep you recharged through the year. If you’ve been thinking of moving homes (or countries), that could happen now.

Tarot

You’ll handle all affairs skillfully and complete projects and money matters. Expect success in negotiations, agreements or monetary transactions, by the second quarter of the year. There’s a huge focus on love this year. You will think about what it might be to live with someone or get married. Don’t try to accomplish too many things at once, and do pay attention to what you eat.

LIBRA

23rd September–22nd October

Astro

You’ll feel frustrated this year, and it’ll affect you both physically and mentally. When such things happen, it is important to give yourself some TLC. Your career house is very powerful this year—success is likely to follow you if you work hard enough. Be wary of people at the workplace—someone might break your trust. This is also a good time to build deeper relationships with your family and loved ones.

Tarot

This year, you need to get more rest. Distance yourself from people who drain your energy. Financially, 2019 packs some ups and downs, but you will have enough to sustain your needs and wants. The period till April will bring some financial issues—someone might try to shortchange you. You will also hold off creative ideas because you might feel that the time isn’t right. In love, you might want to test your lover to see how much they can do for you. Don’t be too demanding, okay?

SCORPIO

23rd October–21st November 

Astro

Don’t let anger get the better of you. Haters will hate, but you know how to deal with them. Victory in a court case is indicated. However, at work, keep a watch on competitors. You might have to travel a lot during the year. Singles might find The One; married Scorps will feel closer than ever.

Tarot

The year starts off well—February is especially a great time! You’ll complete every task you set out to do, and will accomplish more than you thought you would. Expect major financial gains, which means you will get your hands on those things you’ve been eyeing. Relationships will blossom, and you’ll get to spend some quality time with your loved one.

SAGITTARIUS

22nd November–21st December

Astro

This is a great year to finally lock in on your dream house. Communication and intellect would be your strong suit in 2019—use these gifts to your advantage, both personally and professionally. On the home front, you will need to be more flexible and tolerant. Travel is on the cards, and it’ll widen your circle of contacts.

Tarot

This year, be on your best behaviour at work. Someone might displease you, unearthing your hidden insecurities. Don’t let it ruin all the hard work you’ve put in. You might feel a financial crunch, and will be left wondering how to generate money to satiate your needs. Things will improve as the year progresses. You will review the quality of your love life or relationship(s) and will realise that’s exactly what you want—quality not quantity—and so far, it’s been the other way around.

CAPRICON

22nd December–19th January 

Astro

Your long-time desires will come true in 2019. Life seems to be cruising smoother than before, and there are no big challenges. This makes it an ideal time to think out of the box. Work pressures will be high, so work towards a work-life balance to avoid problems in relationships. Singles, be careful about making a commitment. Spend more time together to analyse whether or not you’re truly compatible.

Tarot

This year brings renewed motivation and you’ll become more goal-oriented. This optimism will attract whatever it is you need in life. You’ll do exceedingly well financially, in all your business transactions. While it might not be a priority now, a new romantic beginning or rekindled affair might just sweep you off your feet. Things are looking good for you this year, dear Cap, and you’re about to experience positive and nurturing changes in all spheres of your life.

AQUARIUS

20th January–18th February  

Astro

This year will bring along a host of new business and growth opportunities. Stuck in a 9-to-5? Do take deadlines seriously for a smoother sailing through the year. If you’re looking for a new job, your dream gig is around the corner—just work towards creating a kick-*ss resume. If you’re in a committed relationship and hoping to put a ring on it, don’t rush things. Things might take time to materialise—stay patient and keep the faith.

Tarot

The focus of this year will be on travel, new groups or unions, and philanthropic endeavours. If you’ve been thinking about sprucing up your home, 2019 is when you’ll be spending most of your cash on renovating your space and household items. If money has been a cause of worry, you’ll soon have a pleasant surprise. Things are slower on the relationship front, but the good news is that you’ll be bonding with close friends and family, which will bring much happiness.

PISCES

19th February–20th March 

Astro

2019 could bring some confusion and stress, but if you maintain an optimistic approach, life will not be as hard as it may seem. Sudden opportunities will bring you money—it could be income from rent or sale of property or a new business proposal. This year is also ideal to reveal your true feelings to your beloved. And if you’ve been looking at making things official, go ahead and be the one to propose. The answer will be a yes.

Tarot

This is an important period for you. Professionally, you will be hanging out with a lot of VIPs, but you might have to wait for great things to unfold. Personally, you will feel weighed down by responsibilities, but this period wouldn’t last long. Your greatest success will come through new or repeat business contacts, but you’ll be craving for more. You might be easily irritated, of late, but that’ll change when a new boo enters your life, bringing optimism and confidence.
