Manish Kumar Arora (K.P. Astrologer, Numerologist, Tarot Card Reader & Vastu Consultant) reveals what’s in store for you this month

Aries (21 March – 19 April) This month brings a newfound identity and a realistic understanding of your own limitations, and your capabilities as well. In terms of career and projects, outward signs of progress may not be as forthcoming, yet the work that you do during this transit will lay a foundation for future success and progress! This phase nudges you along a new path towards a more organized, settled, and secure way of living. Favourable Dates: April 3, 7, 12, 16, 21, 26 Favourable Colours: Purple & Yellow

Taurus (20 April – 20 May)

Your creative abilities are reflected in your outlook on life and love and romance are life experiences you strongly identify with. Feelings of love, a desire for beauty, and the urge to be creative are strong. You beautify your surroundings and pay particular attention to your appearance. Sharing and comparing your spiritual, religious, or philosophical interests with a friend or loved one may open up a whole new dimension of your relationship.

Favourable Dates: April 7, 9, 16, 27, 25, 28 Favourable Colours: Grey & Yellow

Gemini (21 May – 20 June)

This is a great time to network and make personal contact with people in positions of authority, as it can contribute good things to your career and image. This transit stimulates a craving for new experiences and diversity in your life. Relationships with colleagues would be fairly a good affair while some hitches in the relations with authorities or those above you cannot be ruled out.

Favourable Dates: April 3, 8, 12, 17, 21, 28 Favourable Colours: Red & Yellow

Cancer (21 June – 22 July)

This is an excellent time to work on financial planning and strategy. This month brings a responsibility to mind and you’re anxious to take care of business. It’s also an important day for exchanging ideas with others, particularly related to improving home or family life. Warm conversations are likely. It’s a period ripe with opportunity for attracting others, for turning on the charm, and receiving positive feedback. Love seems to come to you without the need for you pursuing it.

Favourable Dates: April 1, 9, 10, 18, 19, 27 Favourable Colours: Red & Blue

Leo (23 July – 22 August)

This is not a time to push yourself or to be involved in activities that require intense competition or a great expenditure of energy. Cooperative, harmonious personal and professional relationships are more important to you at this time. A pleasant, affectionate, relaxed, or courteous attitude eases your interactions now, and may open doors or help lighten troubled situations that you’ve been working with lately. Relationships get a new meaning this month.

Favourable Dates: April 1, 9, 10, 18, 19, 27 Favourable Colours: Red & Blue

Virgo (23 August – 22 September)

This is a quest to develop your inner strength. You want to be productive now. Learning something useful or hearing relieving news can figure strongly. You might find some conflict involving your pursuit of pleasure this month. Your own values or way of expressing love and affection may differ from someone you encounter now, but because you are willing to please and smooth over differences, all is likely to turn out well.

Favourable Dates: April 2, 6, 11, 15, 20, 24 Favourable Colours: Green & White

Libra (23 September – 22 October)

This is a time to settle down and think about your own desires and needs. This calmer period will awaken you to the value of the simple pleasures in your life. This is a very positive time in your marriage or closest one-to-one relationships. Your need to be together and to share loving feelings is very strong. You want to give to your loved ones and may spend generously in order to make them happy

Favourable Dates: April 1, 9, 10, 18, 19, 27 Favourable Colours: Blue & Green

Scorpio (23 October – 21 November)

This month may not be the ideal time to make long-term commitments, but it has all the potential to be a spiritfeeding, pleasurable time in your life. A romance begun now might be characterized by sensitivity, concern, and care on the positive side, but it could also be a moody, clinging one. You feel quite loving and warm, with a desire to give and receive affection.. Also, your desire for beauty stimulates your creativity.

Favourable Dates: April 3, 5, 12, 14, 21, 23 Favourable Colours: Purple & Red

Sagittarius (22 November - 21 December)

Your desires are loud, and you’re ready to pursue them directly. You exude even more strength, dynamism, and dominance than usual. You’re growing and improving your relationships, love life, and creative life. You seek meaningfulness now, and you’re proud of what you’re producing and sharing. This could also be a time of purging yourself of literal or psychic “junk”, as there is a sense that de-cluttering your life will be beneficial to your emotional well-being.

Favourable Dates: April 4, 7, 13, 16, 22, 25 Favourable Colours: White & Red

Capricorn (22 December – 19 January)

Your desire for pleasure, ease, and affection is brought to the fore and may interfere with work or complicated situations in which you need to be acting assertively and on your own behalf. Your mood and attitude are conciliatory, and your need for love and approval heightened. Social works and charity deeds shall keep you engaged keeping you off from the main stream of profession.

Favourable Dates: April 2, 3, 11, 12, 20, 21 Favourable Colours: White & Yellow

Aquarius (20 January – 18 February)

You might become more intellectually curious now, and academic pursuits are likely to benefit you and run smoothly during this cycle. Business dealings, particularly longdistance ones and those involving publicity and promotion, are likely to be profitable now. You are more attracted to relationships in which you share a common goal or vision, and some of you could find dating or love opportunities through group activities.

Favourable Dates: April 2, 3, 11, 20, 21, 30 Favourable Colours: White & Yellow

Pisces (19 February – 20 March)

There is a need to nourish both the inner and outer life now, and you tend to see people as the means to feed your well. You may be giving generously of yourself or your services, and this boosts your reputation and appeal. People are receiving you well, and possibly speaking highly of you as well. Drama in romance can be lovely, but too much of it will only leave you yearning and perhaps even heartbroken.

Favourable Dates: April 2, 6, 11, 15, 20, 24 Favourable Colours: Red & Purple

REPUTATION by SARAH VAUGHAN

As a politician, Emma has sacrificed a great deal for her career—including her marriage and her relationship with her daughter, Flora. A former teacher, the glare of the spotlight is unnerving for Emma, particularly when it leads to countless insults, threats, and trolling as she tries to work in the public eye. As a woman, she knows her reputation is worth its weight in gold but as a politician, she discovers it only takes one slip-up to destroy it completely. Fourteen-year-old Flora is learning the same hard lessons at school as she encounters heartless bullying. When another teenager takes her own life, Emma lobbies for a new law to protect women and girls from the effects of online abuse. Now, Emma and Flora find their personal lives uncomfortably intersected…but then the unthinkable happens. A man is found dead in Emma’s home. A man she had every reason to be afraid of and to want gone. Fighting to protect her reputation, and determined to protect her family at all costs, Emma is pushed to the limits as the worst happens and her life is torn apart.

BELFAST

Belfast is a poignant story of love, laughter and loss in one boy’s childhood amid the music and social tumult of the late 1960s. Buddy’s family lives in a largely Protestant district with a few Catholic families, but one day his community and everything he thought he understood about life is suddenly turned upside down. Buddy’s family gets caught in the mayhem and must decide to stay or leave the only place they have ever called home. Through it all, his passionate parents (Caitríona Balfe and Jamie Dornan) and quickwitted grandparents (Academy Award® winner Judy Dench and Ciarán Hinds) keep the joy alive through music and the magic of movies in this feel-good story that reminds us that no matter how far you go, you never forget where you came from.
