Monthly Snapshot Predictions for Leo in 2011 according to Indian Astrology

Jan-Feb-Mar

The duality between what you want to do and what you are coping with form the theme of the month of January. Yours is a sign that may not be happy with routine, run of the mill stuff and may crave high life/adventure. People around you may not take very kindly to it because it spells rocking many a boat. Your current profile at work may begin to seem boring and overwhelming at the same time. However, in the face of an authoritative person, you need to be careful. Please clarify as gently as possible, how far you are willing to stretch yourself. That kind of boundary marking is respected. However assess, measure and compose your speech carefully beforehand. Bring a bit of discipline and planning into your routine to weed out possibilities of frustration.

The month of February is a time to welcome rivals into the scene. More people and networking is indicated. You will have to watch out for starting a skirmish against equally ambitious individuals. Keep your ante up but coolly so, because competition is what you thrive on and get your drive from. Keep things from getting ugly. People dealing with academics, research, complex technologies and scientific experimentation will excel during this phase. Speak less, deliver value and negotiate carefully.

Apr-May-Jun

The month of April will be almost electric in nature. You have a favourable time to kick off a new venture, which has kept you excited. You must not however drop your guard. Do your groundwork, go through details, do background checks on people/partners. The risk is equally proportionate to the scale of operation you plan to launch.
