MESSAGE FROM THE MASTER: Life and death are like two banks. The possibility is there for the river of love to flow, but it is only a possibility. You will have to materialize it. Unless love materializes, you have missed – you have missed the whole point of being, says Osho, the Zen master.

An easy, natural and ordinary approach to situations you encounter brings far better results than a brilliant, clever and extra-ordinary one in the New Year! You need to be prudent in relationships and careful in money transactions this month! Just as large green leaves protect tender blossoms, you need to protect your feelings, ideas and plans or jealous and destructive people can block them. Strong emotions need to be masked by a calm exterior for now or you can be taken advantage of. Health problems can be resolved with the help of a good physician, don’t postpone seeing him. Family secrets are revealed to you, don’t be tempted to share them with others.
