A mixed day
The Moon today
The Moon is in Virgo today — the 6th house from Aries (good house, blocked by vedha). Money and health both improve and rivals fall back, though the spending also rises.
What the book says
Gain of money and good health; fame and delight; more contact with women; comfort at home; defeat of enemies and destruction of disease - but expenditure runs high.

Gain of money and ample marital pleasure; short profitable journeys; profit in trade and business; good food, milk drinks and restful sleep; good health, a vehicle and reputation - especially if Venus too is giving good transit results.
