This year will see a lot of long term planning being done by you, which will set the path for the next 5 years or so – and you will fully work towards materializing your goals after this year. However, do not make plans in the beginning of the year – as whatever you decide will eventually change after February 4. Reserve this planning to be done after this phase itself, after the uncertainty related to your future path clears out.
This will also be a year where a lot of hardwork done in the past years will pay off although you will find this happening only after June 14.
From the mid of March to the mid of April will be a turbulent period for Leo (especially the end of March to first week of April) – as multiple planets will be transiting your 8th house and giving results in Cancer navansh. Deal with this time patiently and calmly. The best remedy for this duration is to take some navgraha bhasma and do the abhishek of Shivling (in the temple) with this bhasma while chanting Shiv Aghor mantra 11 times – do this every Thursday and Sunday for March and April (you can increase the frequency if possible as per your schedule).
If this is not possible – then simply light a desi ghee diya in the southwest of the house, after the time of sunset, everyday, starting from Shukla paksh Thursday in March and continue for 48 days.
