Aquarius Jan 28 - Feb 18 A loving friend or caring business colleague knows just what to do to make you feel better. Lean on them during times of trial. If you've been contemplating a short trip, invite them along. The two of you will have a great time. Changing a large organisation's outlook or attitude may be easier than you think, thanks to your knowledge and experience. You can anticipate every diversionary tactic, making it impossible to evade your pointed and searching questions.
PISCES FEB 19 - Mar 20
Don't be so generous with your time and money, or someone will take advantage of you. A friend who doesn't seem materialistic could help themselves liberally to your food, possessions, or cash. There's nothing wrong with this in theory, but when you start having to make economies for the sake of freeloaders, there is a problem. A spiritual inclination may prompt you to disregard material concerns. That's fine, so long as you don't put your family in jeopardy.
Aries Mar 21 - Apr 19
Don't expect too much from a friend, business partner, or lover. Their capacity for giving is starting to wear thin. If you want to call upon someone's expertise, be prepared to pay for it. It isn't fair to take advantage of your friendship. Paying this person like the professional they are will go a long way toward healing wounds in this union. Model your behaviour after someone you have always admired. Acknowledging other people's talents is a sure fire to appreciate your own.
Taurus Apr 20 - May 20
What seems like a great job could have hidden strings attached. It may be necessary to make an investment in the company, or get additional training at your own expense. Think carefully before taking this step. You may be better off going with an organisation that requires less of you. If you are embarking on a new fitness regime, beware of overdoing it. Start slow, preferably with the supervision of a trained professional. Crash diets and insane workouts could be more harmful than helpful.
Gemini May 21 - June 20
A new hobby could be demanding too much of your time, money, and attention and relatives will start to resent this interest. Strive for more balance, especially if you're a parent. People can sense whether you're full engaged or whether you're always checking your phone for messages or your computer for emails. Get your priorities straight. A strong willed friend can show you a better way of handing your personal affairs. Be prepared to hear some difficult home truths from this person.
Cancer Jun 21 - Jul 22
An upsurge of emotion could interfere with your career. You've got to fight to keep your personal and professional lives separate. Granted, this is especially difficult for a sensitive person like you, but try anyway. A blissful physical relationship will be a welcome distraction from all the stress that is swirling around you. If your boss tries to give you more work, put your foot down. You've paid your dues. It's time for somebody else to take on all the thankless jobs you've always performed.
Leo Jul 23 - Aug 22
Take all the rumours you hear with a grain of salt this week. Always question a person's motives when they're serving up some juicy information. It's possible that you're being fed a completely fictional story. Don't do anything for another week or two, when the true facts will come trickling in. An intense colleague could show you how to channel your frustrations into work. Be willing to follow their suggestions, even if this person does annoy you a bit.
Virgo Aug 23 - Sep 22
Just because you're making more money doesn't mean the supply is endless. Beware of spending your hard earned cash on fripperies and furbelows. Yes, it's fun to indulge your whims, but it shouldn't be at the cost of your long term security. You were able to live within a tight budget before and by sticking to the same standards, you can put a nice chunk of your money into savings. Never underestimate the bliss of early retirement. Imagine having the opportunity to travel the world.
Libra Sep 23 - Oct 22
It won't be so easy to turn over a new leaf as you think. Certain emotional traits are deeply ingrained. If you really want to change, you may need the help of a counsellor or social worker. This expert can get to the root of your trouble and teach you strategies for coping with stressful situations. There's a good chance that a bad habit is being triggered by troubling memories. If you can learn to look at this situation in a different light, you'll react in a healthier, more positive manner.
Scorpio Oct 23 - Nov 21
Cutting yourself off from the rest of the world won't give you the peace and quiet you seek. If you're going for true tranquillity, you need to make amends with a relative or neighbour. Be first to extend the olive branch. Don't be so quick to defend your position or insist on your innocence. The fact is that you are both guilty or being a little pig headed. If you stick to your guns, you'll lose a valuable relationship for the sake of pride. Wake up and smell the coffee!
Sagittarius Nov 22 - Dec 21
Your connection with a well heeled group of people could be a drain on your bank account. Stop agreeing to visit to ritzy restaurants and expensive emporiums. The sooner you drop the faade of being independently wealthy, the faster friends will own up to their own financial situations. In fact, your courageous stance could prompt you to be placed in a leadership position. Get ready to take the helm of a local campaign because you're a natural at mustering support.
Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 19
A position of importance isn't all it's cracked up to be. You may not have as much authority as you were initially promised. This makes it difficult for you to reach your objectives. Don't make another move until the problem is cleared up to your satisfaction or your reputation will suffer. If money is an issue, you can develop a creative way to get compensated for your services. Getting paid in trade isn't bad, depending on what services are on offer.
