Celestial Cautions

☿

Mercury Combust

Mercury is within 14° of the Sun (asta). Avoid signing contracts, starting business, and buying electronics until it emerges.

℞

Saturn Retrograde

Saturn moves backward — favour completing pending karmic duties and restructuring; avoid starting long-term commitments.

✦

No Gandanta

The Moon is clear of the three water-fire junction zones. Auspicious works are unobstructed on this count.

☉

Jupiter Strong

Jupiter is well clear of the Sun and direct in motion — favourable for marriage, education, and spiritual ceremonies.

viii · bala-vicāra

Your Personal Strength Today

Reckoned from your birth Moon — the daily favour of the stars toward you personally.

Tarabala · Star Strength

Sampat

Favourable

The 2nd tara — wealth and gains are supported. A good day for financial undertakings and acquisitions.

Chandrabala · Moon Strength

7th House

Strong

The transit Moon is in the 7th from your birth Moon — favourable for partnerships, travel, and public dealings.
