Your horoscope for the week ahead: A series of challenging squares will keep us on our toes
In astrology, square alignments can often have us butting heads — and this week will be full of them. But these challenging aspects also offer us brilliant opportunities to reflect and rise above. The first of these squares will arrive on Monday morning, when communication-ruling Mercury aligns with domineering Saturn. We're usually wise to think carefully about what we want to say as these planets clash, so be sure to take a beat before speaking and consider the feelings of others. This will be particularly important when emotional Venus squares penetrating Pluto a few hours later, which will amp up the tension, and when Mercury squares delusional Neptune that night, which could cloud our minds with distorted perceptions. Luckily, things could become a lot clearer under the light of the full moon in intelligent Sagittarius early on Wednesday. You may even find yourself solving some mysteries you've been mulling over for a while. Hearing the call of adventure? This will also be a beautiful time to break free from any self-imposed limitations and really take the plunge. The strawberry moon reminds us that everything we need to succeed is already at our fingertips. Then, as hot-headed Mars squares unpredictable Uranus on Sunday, we'll need to keep our tempers in check. Taking extra time to respond and carefully evaluate your options is usually wise under this influence, but you may also find it helpful to channel this chaotic energy into an activity that allows you to show off your wild side in a safe setting. A creative project has the potential to really take off during this period. Finally, the week will wrap up with expansive Jupiter squaring strict Saturn, an alignment that could make us feel constrained and even a bit resentful. Finding a balance between expressing ourselves and respecting the rules will be key, especially when working with others, so open up the lines of communication and employ all the patience you can muster. Hard work and focus will ultimately help you accomplish your objectives — have faith in the process. Here is your horoscope for the week of Monday, June 9, 2025. Aries Are you feeling a bit depleted lately, Aries? Work matters can affect our overall well-being when we struggle to separate our professional and personal lives. So this week, focus on protecting your peace by clearly stating your needs in both realms — and try to avoid the temptation to overcommunicate. Meanwhile, you could find your mind drawn toward your domestic surroundings and how you can invest in them. This could be an excellent time to upgrade your home or even make a move to a larger one. Start writing down what your ideal space would look like to get the ball rolling in the right direction. Taurus You're known for your discerning mind, Taurus. And this week, you could be called to use it to process some important information and figure out your next steps. You'll be wise to do so in private, however, particularly if you find yourself mulling over your assets. You may inadvertently strike a sore spot if you start discussing finances with others. Meanwhile, you could feel called to take a step back and reflect on the endings of certain phases in your life. Take your time saying a proper goodbye to the things that no longer serve you — and tie up any loose ends you spot along the way. Gemini Prepare to get a significant confidence boost when it comes to your cash, Gemini. From now through the next 12 months, paying close attention to your income and spending could inspire you to take a more proactive approach to increasing your wealth. Enjoy speaking up about what you want to attain and cutting out any indulgences that put a kink in your grand plans. When it comes to your relationships, you could begin to notice that your bonds in love and business are entering a phase of reassessment, prompting you to clarify the path ahead. Now is the time to show up for the people who fill your life with meaning. Cancer Do you really need to explain yourself, Cancer? At the start of the week, an unexpected provocation from friends could crop up that tempts you to put up your barbs, but you'll be wise to ask yourself this question before responding. You might be better served by nestling into your safe space and reflecting on any fears of rejection or people-pleasing tendencies their comments might be bringing up. Then, toward the middle of the week, you could find yourself feeling more empowered and ready to take responsibility for your state of mind. Enjoy making changes to your day-to-day that will help you feel more comfortable in your own skin. Leo Save your breath, Leo. While your compassion for others is likely to grow from now through the next 12 months, some people in your life won't be ready to receive your advice this week — especially when it comes to financial matters. So if you face any pushback, do your best to keep your thoughts to yourself and let others learn their own lessons. If you can get into the habit of preserving your peace, you'll be happier for it. Meanwhile, you could begin to notice your dreams becoming more vivid, allowing you to take a peek behind the scenes of your mind. Enjoy discovering your hidden self as you look inward. Virgo Has it felt impossible to get a straight answer out of anyone lately, Virgo? Your nearest and dearest may seem a little unreliable right now, but that could be because they simply don't have the tools needed to help you navigate the tricky situations you've found yourself in. This week, try to redirect your focus inward as you search for clues to solve your conundrums. Meanwhile, on the domestic front, you may notice a home improvement project that requires your attention or feel compelled to go on a decluttering spree in your space. Enjoy making room for new memories to grow. Libra Try to resist the temptation to hand out reality checks, Libra. What you consider to be common sense could be a real bubble-burster to others at the beginning of the week. Instead, make an effort to direct your focus toward improving your own life. This is a particularly good time to start polishing up your image, as your career could start moving in a new direction over the next 12 months, propelling you into the professional spotlight. People in your network will likely be eager to hear what you have to say, too, so you may also want to spend some time developing and even rehearsing your talking points. Scorpio A difference of opinion can sometimes feel like a serious roadblock in our relationships, Scorpio. But you don't always have to agree with your loved ones' perspectives — you just have to be willing to hear them out. This week, give your companions a chance to say their piece, and if things get uncomfortable, put the conversation on hold and return to it once you've all cooled down. Meanwhile, if you feel driven to untether yourself from your usual routine, don't hesitate to explore exciting new travel destinations and educational pursuits. Who knows? They could help you reconnect with your greater purpose. Sagittarius No one likes to hear "I told you so," Sagittarius. And at the top of the week, your loved ones and colleagues may not be in the right state of mind to take in your constructive advice either. Keep this in mind as you interact with others, and try to practise supernatural kindness instead of attempting to solve everyone's problems. At the same time, you could start to feel a bit of a disconnect between your mind and your body, which could prevent you from finding your flow state. Do your best to reduce the distractions around you, and consider writing down your thoughts in a stream-of-consciousness style to realign yourself. Capricorn Timing really is everything, Capricorn. Keep this in mind this week if you've been planning to introduce new habits or ideas to your friends, family or romantic partner. People may be feeling overwhelmed by their personal responsibilities during this period, so if you face any resistance, consider scheduling another time to talk when the pressure is off. Toward the middle of the week, you may also find that indulging in downtime with your favourite people helps you recharge your emotional batteries. Don't be afraid to take things slow for a change, surrounded by your nearest and dearest. Aquarius Have you been biting off a bit more than you can chew lately, Aquarius? If so, a conflict between your professional and personal domains could have you feeling the pressure at the beginning of the week. But don't fear: you're sure to get through this tough spot if you can exercise some compassion for yourself in addition to all the people around you. Think carefully about what steps you need to take in order to bring back a sense of balance in your life. You'll be called to continue reflecting on this subject throughout the next 12 months as you establish which activities and practices are really best for your mind and body. Pisces Are you prepared to unleash your inner genius upon the world, Pisces? From now through the next 12 months, you could find that your creativity flows freely, infusing your life with extra whimsy, beauty and even romance. You'll be most successful when you speak from the heart and lean on your intuition, so be sure to stay true to yourself as your imagination unfolds and your mind fills up with inspired ideas. And if others start to take notice and want to team up on a creative endeavour, be sure to take a beat before committing to anything. People who don't truly understand your gifts may not be worth collaborating with.

Dilli ‘O' Dilli visited by Punjab storytellers
Born and brought up in the fledgling city of Chandigarh, the greatest childhood joy was a five-hour drive in a bus flying on the old Ambala road to the wonderland called Dilli so different and buzzing from our city of squares and roundabouts designed so meticulously by Le Corbusier. To tell the truth that excitement never quite ended and continues even now in the senior citizen times. A trip vivid in my still was with my middle-aged parents when I was just about four and the youngest of eight siblings in those pre family planning times. The reason for the sojourn being that relationship between our parents was strained with building too large a house, to replicate the lost Lahore home post-retirement by commuting pension, taking loans and getting cheated by new-world contractors. My dashing captain brother, who was their only working child, suggested the old man and woman needed a holiday and I being the baby accompanied them. Well, Delhi held my four-year eyes in wonder in the year 1959 with a tonga ride, grandeur of the Red Fort, and staying in a hotel with a winding staircase and embossed tiles on the walls and pampering by my mother's younger brother who was the manager of this destination called 'The Royal Hotel' in old Delhi. Basti & Durbar Delhi was etched in the heart as a wonderous city as compared to the 'green hedges and white beards' of the early scantily populated city of ours largely of retired people. Delhi poet Devendra Satyarthy had defined it as 'Harian jharhian te chitian darhian' and added in another wise one on our city beautiful, 'Kal de jamme Chandigarh da ki itihas, Miss Das?' Well now this city of ours has its own character and history. But it was with the same excitement of a four-year old that I rushed early morning in a shared cab and a long metro ride from Dilli's Jahangirpuri to attend the launch of a collection of stories edited by Rakhshanda Jalil, a prolific creator of books and published by Ravi Singh of Speaking Tiger Books. Titled 'Basti & Durbar: Delhi-New Delhi' it is indeed a delightful collection of the city in across five languages, including English, Hindi, Urdu, Punjabi and Malyalam. Jalil says thus of the book: 'This book is a collaborative effort in every sense of the word. What eventually found place between its covers are my efforts combined with efforts of Ravi Singh and Nageez Mollah of Speaking Tiger Books.' She further quotes Delhi's pre-eminnent historian Percival Spear, who said, 'Full understanding is available to no one. For those who seek there are rewarding always Dilli dur ast, the Delhi of full knowledge is far off.' Builders, tongawala & whose story? What makes the anthology particularly interesting to the North Indian readers is the inclusion of vibrant tales from writers of Punjab. Partition of India in 1947 brought many of the Lahore writers to the Capital, like Amrita Pritam, Krishna Sobti, Bhisham Sahni, Ajeet Cour, Kartar Singh Duggal and others. But long before hailing back to the when the British crushed the first war of Independence in 1857, the city was reduced to ruin and marked only by graves of Hindu and Muslim revolutionaries and no one would touch them. Then came the enterprising Sikhs from west Punjab to build Lutyen's New Delhi. Khushwant Singh gives an inside view in the piece 'The Builders' including the role of his contractor father Sardar Sobha Singh. Known for his declaration of 'with malice to one and all' the writer says of his father: 'My father was a man of foresight with a knack of making money.' The rest of course is history. Other Punjabi fare is a touching tale by Kartar Singh Duggal in 'Majha Nahi Moya' (Majha is not dead) of the honour of a tongawala who would not compromise his values and honour, more so in case of a white skinned man, even if it meant him and his dear horse going hungry. 'Gango's Son', another touching tale comes from Bhisham Sahni, about a pregnant woman working at a construction site in the Capital, translated from Hindi with finesse by Jerry Pinto. Jalil herself translates a story by Gulzar 'Whose Story' set in the Sabzi Mandi area where the legendary poet grew up as a refugee boy. Indeed a collection that has much to offer! One cannot but add a parting couplet by Bashir Badr: 'Purani Dilli dil Ki basti hai, jo bhi guzra usi ne looti hai..' nirudutt@
