Rejoice in the minutiae this week; sow the seeds of success
Significant turning points are visible this week, and positive energies are helping us sow the seeds of growth and success. This week we move towards culminating our objectives into tangible outcomes.
Practicality in our day-to-day work and wellness — self-care in particular — has emerged as one of the key themes for the Week Ahead (September 7-September 13).
Taking a philosophical cue from the prevailing harvest season — whether it is a networking conference or a family get-together or simply spending quality time all by oneself — one could look to reap a good bounty.
Vitality, relationships, interpersonal skills, aesthetics, intellectual pursuits and comforts are some of my key takeaways for the collective based on the cards that got pulled.
From what I see in the cards, this week will be more about finding joy in small details rather than grand gestures.

[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.
