Ancient Secrets: Forecast for 2019

The New Year 2019 is expected to show improved results astrologically, compared to the current year.

Economically, the fresh year offers enhanced hope and sectors like textiles, gold and real estate are likely to achieve favourable gains. Investment in land and gold is anticipated to see increased appreciation.

Countries in the southern hemisphere like Australia, New Zealand, Brazil and South Africa are likely to see better growth.

Seventh generation astrologer and Vasthu Sastra expert Yuvaraj Sowma, who is based in Chennai, India, sat with me recently to jointly analyse what the future holds for the various zodiac signs using the Indian almanac.

The Indian calendar is based on moon signs or rasi. Readers should note that Western astrology is based on sun signs. If, say, your Western astrological star sign is Aries, your sign under the Indian system might not be the same.

Consult an astrologer to determine your moon sign because it is too complicated to explain how to do that here.

And don’t be disappointed if your forecast indicates an unfavourable period ahead. You can avert the worst by performing prayers and spiritual activities, doing good deeds and performing acts of charity to mitigate negative planetary forces.

It will be a positive year for those born under the signs of Libra (Thula), Cancer (Kataka), Pisces (Meena), and Taurus (Vrishabha).

Moderate and below average results are expected for those who belong to Capricorn (Makara), Virgo (Kanya), Leo (Simha), Scorpio (Vrichika), Aquarius (Kumbha), Sagittarius (Dhanus), Aries (Mesham) and Gemini (Mithuna).
