See through the fog, stick to the path this week

 

The Week Ahead (December 30- January 5) witnesses the confluence of an end flowing into a new beginning. This marks a major transformation, particularly for those who are ready to move with the flow. When one is aligned with the change, there’s no confusion and it brings a balance in life. 

This week polarities exist and the choice one makes can determine the direction of the change. What I have picked up for this week is that any kind of overindulgence can lead to imbalances, be it behavioural, diet or work-related. Temptation and delusional energies prevail and thus maintaining that balance would require courage and determination.

This week could bring the karmic results to the fore accompanied by strong emotions. For example, the passion with which you call out for that which you want to see happen in your life will hasten the process of it being manifested. Rigour is key and so is knowledge that can help light up the path ahead and also in overcoming challenges.

But if you are in the initial phases of a certain activity or growth — such as beginning a new hobby or a work-related project or have made an investment — it would be tricky to sustain it. Fears of insecurity can pose as stumbling blocks. Your dreams will materialise depending on how passionately you nurture them.

Wishing you all a very happy New Year! See you all next year!!

[Unlike other columns on zodiac signs, I make efforts every week to bring out decan-specific readings for the twelve Sun signs. Each zodiac sign (30 degrees) is divided into three decans (10 degrees). This makes the reading more focused and accurate. It also provides better cues for the collective whole.
