Desperate times call for desperate measures, and some innovative ones too.

The Indian police, who are diligently working round the clock to ensure complete lockdown across the country, have been resorting to several unique ways in a bid to keep people off the streets and inside their homes, and to educate people about coronavirus, its spread and impact. They are also trying their best to keep the morale of people up by singing motivational songs.

Help the Indian police by staying indoors, curb your movement unless completely necessary and practice social distancing.

Do not hesitate to bare your feelings to him/her, Aquarius as you can otherwise, really look reserved and detached to the other person. They may never, in their wildest dreams, think that you may be interested in them, because you are so careful of not showing any form of affection. You believe in an idealist theory of romance, which others may find difficult to relate to. Wear something in green to attract good luck. 11 am in the morning is a good time for getting important work done.PiscesYou are just recovering from a bad experience and have sworn never to tread on a similar path again. Once bitten is twice shy. The Moon in Aquarius will make you brood today about the hows and whys of the circumstance which had got you into that difficult situation. Do not go into the past, Pisces. What happened could have happened to anyone. Think of it as a useful lesson learnt in life. The important thing here is not to venture on the same path again, once your shock/grief of experiencing it is over since you are a soft person and liable to forgive easily. Between 12:05 pm and 2:00 pm is auspicious and you must schedule anything important during these hours. Wearing any shade of green will prove lucky for you. #Dailyhoroscopes#Astrology
