Get set for new beginnings, turning points
If you’ve been missing the action of late then the coming week would more than satiate that feeling. The Week Ahead (April 14-April 20) is marked by several turning points accompanied by new beginnings, making it nothing short of a roller coaster ride.
The Wheel of Fortune has appeared thrice and the starting points (Aces and 1s) are seven in number.
The areas of your life where the turning points are likely to appear will see some changes.
Ask yourself which part of your life is ripe enough to take a turn. What part of your life is about to flower? What ideas that were seeded earlier are now ready to show green shoots?
Turning points can either be new beginnings or endings depending on the stage of its occurrence in a cycle.
When change sets in, there’s hyperactivity.
Given the presence of seven Knights, expect it to be a fast-paced week. It would be particularly thrilling regarding communication and troubleshooting.
Some could get exhausted in the event. Moderation is thus advised.

[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.
