Root number 7

For root number 7, who prefer quiet to crowds, the year is neither very good nor bad; what matters is deciding what to do first. Eight belongs to Saturn, who settles accounts. Saturn gives nothing without labour, but he does not short-change labour by a single paisa either. Responsibility grows this year, pressure grows, and the recognition withheld for years also arrives this year. Major decisions about property, contracts, loans and long-term investment fall in this period. Whatever you sign, read every clause first.

Work & study

You come under the eye of those above you. Promotion, new responsibility or administrative authority are indicated. Your position at work becomes solid this year, though it will be paid for in effort.

Money

A favourable year for long-term financial decisions. Investment in land, a flat or any fixed asset will prove sound. Refrain from borrowing on impulse.

Love & family

There is a real risk that the relationship gets neglected under the workload. If your partner complains, do not brush it aside; that would be the year's biggest mistake.

Health

Bones, teeth, arthritic pain and long-running fatigue. Treat rest as a luxury and the body will take its own leave.
