Root number 5
Born on 5 June
Mercury · the speed to grasp a thing at once
5 June: the reading for this birthday alone
Born on the 5th means a mind that will not settle in one place for long. New cities, new people, new work: change does not tire them, it keeps them alive. Quick with words and sharp in business, they only need to watch the impatience that lets good chances slip.
The Sun at birth: Taurus · Rohini. At your birth the Sun stood in Taurus. It brings steadiness and patience; you dislike hurry, but once you take hold of something you do not let go. You understand the value of money and things, and you enjoy comfort.
The Sun sits in the last third of the sign, a portion (drekkana) ruled by Saturn, so patience, restraint and a sense of duty run deeper. The Sun in Rohini makes taste, a sense of beauty and the power to attract people come naturally. Mercury, the planet of your root number, and Venus, lord of the Sun's sign at birth, are friends. So the qualities of your birthday and of your sign pull in the same direction; you are quick to find your path.
Born on 5 June, with the Sun in Taurus: four areas of life
Career
In sales, travel and communication work your speed outpaces everyone. Steady success comes in banking, finance, agriculture, food, the arts or the beauty trade.
Money
Money comes fast and goes fast; set aside a fixed sum every month. You save well; land and gold are auspicious investments for you.
Love and relationships
Monotony is the enemy of your relationships; take your partner out somewhere now and then. Faithful and steady in love, though you nurse a hurt for a long time.
Health
Nerves and skin are sensitive; walk regularly to ease restlessness. Mind the throat, thyroid and weight; go easy on sweets.
The Sun’s sign and nakshatra are worked out from the day and month; for a birth close to the day the Sun changes sign, it can shift by a day from year to year. Check the full birth chart to be sure.
