A breakdown in communication in a group project might throw everything into chaos. Not a lot will be accomplished if people are inconsistent and everyone remains at odds with each other. Sticking at it until everyone reaches a compromise could be frustrating when similar arguments could recur over the next few weeks. You might find it more satisfying to sneak away to get on quietly out of sight.

An acquaintance you can normally rely on is short tempered and impatient. If you have anything to ask of them, you won't find them very responsive. Their irritability could eventually rub off on you and you will end up feeling wound up and annoyed. When dealing with anyone who is prickly and grumpy don't take it too personally. Their negative mood probably has nothing to do with you.

It's one of those days when although you don't intend to stay long when visiting people, they will keep you talking. An associate might seek you out to interrogate you about business which has nothing to do with them. You constantly have to watch what you say. This puts a strain on your professional relationships. If you feel awkward about some business dealings, don't think you must make instant decisions.

There's more than enough variety in your life now. In fact too much is going on and you're starting to feel overwhelmed by it all. Tensions could mount and this has a lot to do with the fact you rarely spend much time in one place. You're dealing with too many things at once. Life isn't dull but it isn't easy either. Between now and the 8th March you need to be extra careful in matters and areas you aren't entirely familiar with.

A financial dilemma will not be as easy to resolve as you might first think. Your concern grows as this matter becomes more complicated and difficult. Seek professional guidance. It will take a wee while before you eventually attain the balance you seek in your personal financial affairs. Although this might leave you a little short of cash now, you will be positioning yourself on the path to greater security in the future.

A heavier load lands on your shoulders as you find yourself having to take on someone else's responsibilities. Rather than complaining, use this as an opportunity to show how responsible and reliable you can be. Also, if it applies, you might demonstrate how committed you are to your career. Let everyone see how much you are prepared to give and more to the point at the moment, prepared to take!

Intellectual rapport is a requirement if you and someone you're joining forces with are going to work well together. Teaming up with someone who doesn't share your same wavelength is a recipe for disaster. Be alert to possible areas that might cause trouble over the days ahead, especially in relation to your career. You can avoid problems by planning ahead and being sensible in your thinking.

If someone who is close to you is feeling neglected, their demands could get worse before they get better! At times you might feel you can't please a lover and you're not sure how to deal with their constant appeals for your time, attention and affection. A romantic situation could get out of hand or a little jittery these next few weeks. One word of caution: words spoken in haste could be hard to take back.

A housemate seems to be getting the upper hand and you won't like the decisions they are making. You're so involved with your own thoughts you haven't the time to keep on top of everything going on at home. Their aim is to make life easier for others but all they're doing is bringing problems on themselves and on you. As time progresses, home based activities will start to take priority.

Your time simply isn't your own now and this feeling of frustration will continue over the days ahead. Keep your feet planted firmly on the ground where business and financial interests are concerned. It might be tempting to leave it to others to deal with some matters. That's not a good idea now Mercury's turning retrograde. No matter how helpful anyone appears to be, you still won't be happy with the job they do!

Don't make promises you may not be able to keep and think before you spend. Not all arrangements made will go according to plan even if you felt you had everything worked out down to the last detail. Somehow or somewhere a mistake has been made and it could be you who is left to sort things out. This won't be easy but if you make an all out effort, you should manage to keep things under control.

You're considerably more hesitant when it comes to making important decisions today and that's no bad thing. It is entirely possible the choices you have to make are a lot more difficult than usual. You want to weigh up all the pros and cons. You might feel a second opinion will help speed things up but this may not be the case. Another person's views will only confuse you further!
