Planets this week-  5^th to 11^th February 2012

The hemisphere witnesses the transit of intelligent planet Mercury only other than Moon this week. Mercury transits to Kumbha on the night of 10^th. The retrograde motion of fiery Mars in Simha and the combustible motion of intelligent Mercury in Makara rasi are continuing.  The slow planet Saturn starts its retrograde motion from 7^th.  

Politically the countries coming under Dhanus rasi (UAE, Australia, Hungary, Spain and Madagaskar) are likely to attract headlines in media on account of some beneficial schemes brought forward for the common people as Saturn, Jupiter, Venus and Mercury are well placed.

Health wise it is advised to be very cautious against accidents and injury by weapons or tools as the two malefic planets are in retrograde motion.

Those who are born in Mesha and Vrischika rasis should utilize the casual meetings too as these meetings with important persons over leisure activities can throw the doors open for new opportunities and fast developments in your life as the Royal Sun and intelligent Mercury favor you a lot.  It is also advised to filter opportunities as the other planets are not in a position to favor you.

Those who are born in Rishabha rasis can enjoy this week especially as the Sun also moves to favorable position by the start of next week. Relationship with opposite sex and family are likely to be good. Utilize this week for launching a business or getting a project off the ground. In general a feeling of well-being and inner harmony exists now.

Mithun and Tula rasi borns are continually getting the blessings of fiery Mars in addition to benefic planet Jupiter. Help from the affluent VIPs will give you a great boost. Allegations will subside and you will slowly regain your reputation.  You will become more business-like in your approach.  You will attempt things, which have not even thought of before. But be careful while interacting with opposite sex.

The present planetary favoritism of Mercury and exalted Venus offers average results for the Kataka and Makara rasi borns.  It is quite possible that you will be attracted to someone who comes from a background which is very different from yours, and which is very inspiring for that reason only. When you swept away by emotion, you will give romantic partners everything they have ever asked for. Control yourself. Don't get overjoyed and beware of retrograde Mars who may play tricks.

Bad phase is continuing to those who are born in Kanya and Kumbha rasis.  The peculiar planetary alignment may upset your calculations.  Avoid over enthusiasm as unforeseen events might be lurking around the corner to trip you up.  Just be careful and check every point before coming to a conclusion.

The malefica and benefic planets especially exalted Venus play a vital role in the affairs of those who are born in Simha, Dhanus and Meena rasis.  It is likely that your enemies in business may call for a compromise.  Be careful and you should be able to handle even tricky and sensitive situations by adopting a conciliatory approach. Be very diplomatic in your approaches.
