Excellent year for scorpionians. You will be able to reach out & enjoy the world around you very thoroughly. You will see how to handle funds, relationships, family & have dazzling ideas that give a tremendous boost to your skills. Love is felt in no small measure & a sense of deep understanding develops. Those who are in love will find themselves happily married. Romantic regions of your chart bring your share of romantic encounters, but also a small amount of confusion in relationships that are close to your heart. You enter this year with a feeling of subdued confidence. It seems no matter how much you brought yourself undone last year there was always a safety net there to catch you in the end. What you though were your great mistakes could have turned out to be blessings in disguise. Endings opened your eyes to new possibilities. And so for most, you will actually be in a better position now than you were last year - through no fault of your own of course. You may spend more time alone than usual over the first half of the year. It's a good thing, as you will use this time, as Socrates advised, ' to know thyself'. You also need some rest and respite as something is brewing within. You're more socially active in the second half of the year when your public responsibility kicks in. The late October and early November born have greater scope for exploring their creative talents and finding new ways to amuse themselves.
This year between January to September, Jupiter and between April to December Ketu shall remain in 11th house whose influence will help you derive desired level of success in your work field. In society your reputation will grow.

LIBRA
http://www.truthstar.com/astrology/2006_libra_yearahead.asp

General Prediction in 2006

Education and travel are themes that color the following year for Libra. After negotiating some difficult situations you are ready for a new direction - a fresh start. You've set your sites to the future instead of dwelling over what might have been. The first few months of 2006 should see you finalising the finishing touches on something and then moving on to greener pastures. You should witness greater potential from as early as February, although some overhanging matters (perhaps regarding property) may not resolve until late March. The primary difference between this year and the last is that you'll be doing what you want, rather than what you have been expected to do. That's not to say there are still obligations to attend to, chiefly for those born from October 12 onward, but you can see the light clearly ahead. This futuristic optimism will attract like-minded people toward you and clear any restrictions you may have felt in the past.

They will range from social & environment causes to prayer & religion, to philosophy & idealism. However, this will be significant year in which with much confidence and gumption you shall achieve your targets. But you should not neglect the govt. officials and accomplish your work with prudence and shrewdness with your intelligence and valor you shall get promotion or success with your social reputation rising. People will recognize your influence. Domestic happiness will be available in a good measure despite some business suspense & interference of friends & relations in your family business and profession you shall succeed in getting over the problems and achieve your objectives.

Love and Family in 2006
Single
It's a lovefest for you 'love to be in love' gals, so don't waste time on losers or unavailable men. If you're looking to get married or settle down, this is the year you'll find the man to do it with, as Jupiter the planet of abundance bestows gifts on you through October. July through October rocks romantically and your chances of falling head over uggs increases when you spend time with a Leo and/or an Aquarius.
Attached
You'll know by July if your partner is 'the one' or not. If he is, start planning your wedding. If you realize he isn't, move on. There is someone else out there far more suited to you. In fact, he could be a coworker or friend born under the sign of Leo.


Your children will remain obedient and cooperative. You are likely to undergo a major change regarding your love relationship, which is most likely to disturb your mind, but things will get sorted out towards the mid year. Your family responsibilities will escalate during this year & people at home will be demanding. You may find that your interest in both earning & professional advancement is flagging, & you look at different options. Now values & concerns are far more vital.

Health in 2006
From health point of view this wont be a good year for you. The health will be under pressure.

Finance in 2006

Luckily Jupiter the planet of good luck moves into your money zone late October, where he finds new ways for you to make more cashola. A pay raise or unexpected cheque you weren't expecting in November is just the beginning of a whole new financial chapter.

Career in 2006
You're super ambitious through mid year, then it's like someone turns off a switch and you slacken off and start feeling disenchanted with the whole climbing the corporate ladder thing. Pity, because you were doing so well! Sticking to something and seeing it through is what will bring you the ultimate success you deserve and have worked for over the past two years. Hang in there - everything pays off in November.

For business and profession this year would need much hard work and struggle on your part to earn normal living. At this time Saturn's position shall be in the 10th and 9th house. You are likely to take some bold initiatives, which are likely to prove counterproductive. You will however not loose heart& concentrate on official work with full hope to achieve your objectives. The government & the higher authorities are likely to become hostile & some loss on that account is feared. Businessmen are required to keep low profile. This indicates less help from luck and much delay and hurdles in accomplishing your desired objective, both in business and in service. Be careful about your dealing with the government and not neglecting rules and regulations. Use your intelligence and shrewdness to get desired results. But between April to December, due to Rahu being in 6th house, your influence will grow and you shall not only succeed in scoring over your rivals and opponents but also earning as much wealth, property and affluence as you want. You will also succeed in your ventures. Economic condition will be satisfactory. Keep some cash ready to meet some foreseen expenditure. Quite possibly this year you shall also go on a long journey - even to foreign land wherein you may spend much Owing to Jupiter in the 12th house.

Self-Improvement
Your greatest lesson last year was to experience your own self-undoing. As Sir Humphrey Davey once said, 'I learn more from my mistakes than I do from my successes'. The ability to pick yourself up and look squarely in the mirror of reality instituting necessary changes has become your success factor. This year it's a matter of carrying on with those discoveries with even greater enthusiasm and productivity. Your improvement will stem from seeing the potential in a situation, and mastering the moment by grabbing that opportunity with both hands. It will come. That's the promise of 2006.
