Recommended attitudes/ strategies for the day:
This is the time to make the direct approach in all matters - but you will do well to remember that ‘being direct' does not mean ‘being confrontational.' Don't tread too far in untested waters. Do not let personal feelings/ vanity lead you into unnecessary risks during this sensitive period. Time just before noon is a great time for scheduling brain-storming sessions to boost the decision-making abilities of field executives, and for students trying to master complex concepts. Do not let others derail your progress by involving you in ego-tussles; productive people don't waste time on inconsequential things!

Activities that are highly favoured:
Intake of new medicines; first feeding of solid food for infants; learning new subjects; taking first bath after recovery from ailments; initiating wedding-related formalities; assuming lucky names; purchasing new clothes/ ornaments.
Activities that are preferably avoided:
Surgery on the hips; long journeys towards North and Northeast.
General numerological guidance for the day:
6 and 9 borns will enjoy better luck than others; 3 borns must maintain a low profile.
