    Aries (March 21-April 19)

    Get ready to feel a spark of creativity take you to unexplored places, Aries. Just remember that while you might be used to leading collaborations and group projects, this time you might need to step back and allow someone else to shine.


    Manifest Tip: Don’t hesitate to ask people for help if you need it. Showing a little vulnerability now will allow others to see you in a new light.

    Taurus (April 20-May 20)

    Your financial sector is abuzz during this phase, Taurus. This could mean a wind flow of cash or an expense that might cause your budget to get shaken up. Either way, you need to keep financial management at the top of your mind when figuring out priorities going forward.


    Manifest Tip: Set the foundation for 2025 now by making wiser choices that might not have a short-term result, but benefit you in the long term.

    For Manifest to become one of Cambridge Dictionary's most viewed words of 2024 — 1,30,000 hits and counting — it means some of us must have Googled it at least once. I know, I hit that search button over and over again

    Putting together a homegrown title at a time when the demise of print has been long announced may seem surprising...
    ...but it has long been a dream of mine to give India a magazine it deserves. A magazine that is the country.

    And nothing, absolutely nothing, represents India more than our weddings.It is a time when families are brought together. Traditions come alive as they are adapted to each couple's beliefs. And lives are joined in a way that the romantic in me still enjoys.

    The fact that it comes with band, baaja and baraat — what's not to love?And that is the reason our first issue celebrates:
