2010 for Delhiites by S. Raghunath


I have been gazing intently into my crystal ball in a bid to ensnare the ethereal psychic waves and find out just what 2010 has in store for the Delhiites. My findings:
For the Aries folks, 2010 is likely to be a bumpy year. With Saturn adversely aspected in their third stellar mansion, they will find themselves coming a beautiful cropper in unexpected potholes on Barakhamba Road and breaking their precious necks.
For the Taurans, everything points to a house move, courtesy the bulldozers of the demolition squad of the Delhi Development Authority and the New Delhi Municipal Corporation. With Mercury transiting their birth sign, they can expect sewage-contaminated water to start trickling thru’ their taps at 2.30 in the morning instead of 3 o’clock.
For the Gemini folks, the influence of Venus, the planet of love, will be pronounced and their love life will prosper. They can expect to convince the mobile court in Tees Hazari that they were courting and wooing and not eve teasing and get away with a light fine and a warning.
For the Cancer folks, 2010 is likely to be a financially rewarding year with both Delhi Telephones and Delhi Vidyut Board apologising in writing for overbilling and sending refund cheques.
For the Leos, the Jupiter factor will be pronounced as also their speculative and gambling tendencies. They will wager that all curbs on the construction of high rise apartments and commercial complexes in the Green Belt zones would be abolished and win hands down.
For those born under the Virgo sign, 2010 is likely to be a smelly year with garbage in front of their houses remaining uncleared for months on end and reaching mountainous proportions and becoming stellar tourist attractions.
For the Librans, 2010 is likely to be, quite literally, the year of the Dog. With wild packs of stray dogs in their neighbourhood barking and whelping thru’ the night and driving them bonkers. A good year for investing in pharma companies manufacturing anti-rabies vaccine.
The literary and poetic streak in those born under Scorpion sign, will come to the fore during 2010. They will pen epic prose and poetry protesting against the hike in property taxes and submitting them to NDMC.
Success in business is indicated for those born under the Sagittarious sign. They will get in on the basement floor of the most lucrative racket of ‘em all and set up as house brokers and palm off a one-room thatched roof tenement in Trans-Yamuna as a “posh, imperial residency” and pocket a fat commission.
For the Capricorns. Mars will be in a malefic aspect and with an adverse conjunction of Neptune and Jupiter, they will find themselves standing in a km-long queue to buy kerosene and have the hawkers flying at them.
2010 will find the Aquarians in a relaxed and laid-back mood and doing things they enjoy most like gardening, that is pulling congress grass and other noxious weeds by the roots. For entertainment, they might join a video club that gets raided for piracy.
Good prospects are indicated for the Pisceans. They will be able to get their children admitted to Hindi medium Corporation Nursery School in Trans Yamuna colony after paying a donation of just Rs 75,000.
