You can be very sensitive and perhaps touchy today and tomorrow, dear Scorpio. Tame the inclination towards negative thinking and waiting for others to fill your needs. Chances are high that they won't right now. You don't necessarily have to keep expectations low, but reasonable. You're certainly looking for more from your life right now, but others can be caught up in their own problems and may not be equipped to intuit your needs.
Sukaina's
You may find yourself more sensitive to the world around you today. Your intuition is heightened, and you may find yourself longing for knowledge. You're feeling somewhat emotionally exposed to the world, so be careful to guard against insecurity and keep your feet firmly planted on the ground.
Theme: Adaptable, Tactful, Gentle, Cautious
Astro Association: Moon
Tarot Association: High Priestess
254 Opposition Saturn - Sun
Negative aspect: You may be weakened, not in form: you may not be in a good mood and incapable of action or finishing your tasks. You may get depressed at this state of affairs. Nothing seems to go right, everything seems to be against you. You will have to overcome obstacles that, in this transit, might seem insurmountable. You may fail to take advantage of the opportunities that arise. You may have to face your problems alone, as you cannot count on anyone else to help you.
You may find it difficult to meet your professional obligations. This is not the time to ask your boss for a raise. It would be best to keep a low profile, to make people forget you're there during this period. It is the ideal time to take a holiday in the country.
You may experience some form of disillusionment with regards to an important person in your life, with authority figures, with personal plans and achievements, or with aspects of your own personality. You may feel "left out", blocked from advancing in your chosen life path, and lacking in energy and confidence. Ego boosts don't seem to be forthcoming, or if they are, you don't see them in such a light. Some sort of buckling down is necessary at this time, and is often perceived as limitations coming from other people or from circumstances. Financial blocks are quite possible at this time, especially if the Sun is associated with the second or eighth house by position or rulership. Physically, this is likely to be a rather low period when you don't have that extra "oomph" or drive to accomplish things. A general feeling of "slowdown" is likely, and if regular tasks seem more overwhelming than usual, it is likely due to poor spirits and lack of motivation. Sometimes, this transit is associated with problems with the teeth, bones in general, and the skin. It is also associated with mechanical breakdowns in your life. However, these generally happen because you haven't been managing your life effectively, and Saturn calls upon you to identify the weaker areas of your life, and to fix or strengthen them. Take the time to sort out your life, improve your work, and to become more efficient. If things or people leave your life, it is likely because the connection between you was weak, or they somehow no longer serve a healthy purpose in your life. Taking a slow and steady approach to life is necessary now. Pushing too hard will likely lead to frustration and setbacks. Take it easy and work on self-improvement. Results are not immediate, but will eventually come and bring healthy rewards.
Hey Umair,
Khana itna bhi acha nahi hoga... well, as long as you're having fun playing squash. Kahan khel rahe ho? It's funny how whenever I talk to you, I automatically have a much more favourable feeling towards Karachi. Thanks :)
Lord knows when I'll choose to go back for a visit. I'm trying to get myself to Tanzania for a vacation. Or France. Somewhere out of here. Where there's a beach.
Haven't found any potential husbands yet. Slim pickings. Men are weird.
As for the other stuff, no comment.
Take care Umair,

Sukaina's Personal I Ching Hexagram:
48: The Well
Wednesday, March 28th, 2012
General Meaning: Throughout various cultures and political systems of the world, the well has served as a universal symbol for that which sustains life and provides a constant, inexhaustible source of life-giving nourishment for mankind.
Like the well, human nature is the same around the world. The passage of time does not change its essential dimensions, nor take anything away. Still, just as a well can be deepened to produce clearer, cleaner water, so can we enrich our lives by delving deeply within — into our natural selves, or souls.
Beware of shallow thinking. Like a little learning, it can be dangerous. The image of the well suggests that along with depth comes clarity. Be patient, and penetrate both your problems and your own nature to the core. If you do not lower your bucket to the depths, you're very likely to come up empty. When greater depth is desired, a lessening of speed is often required.
