You're able to charm your way into jobs, relationships, and organisations. Use your powers of persuasion to get anything from a bank loan to a first date. If you already have a lover, this would be a good time to do a little sexual experimenting. It may take a few tries to coax your amour into bed, but your persistence will pay off. Money from an inheritance or dividend helps you afford a beautiful luxury item. Go ahead and spoil yourself.

If you're single, you're about to jump into the dating pool again. Don't be afraid; there are several good candidates for your affection out there. Just be sure to keep your standards high. You're looking for someone who is generous, passionate, and practical. Don't waste your time with people who just want to fool around; you have bigger fish to fry. If you're already in a relationship, your partner will get a raise, prize, or bonus.

There's nothing shallow about wanting to look your best. You've been blessed with natural good looks, and now it's the time to emphasise them. Go on a shopping spree with a Libra whose sense of fashion you admire. Get a spa treatment aimed at rejuvenation. Update your hairstyle. New doors will open once you make an investment in your appearance. Lay off the fattening foods and intoxicating drinks, though.

News of an engagement, marriage, or pregnancy sets off a round of parties. Whether you're the guest of honour or just a happy participant is immaterial. The important thing is to have fun. Take time off from work so you can devote yourself to the festivities. It looks as if your boss will be able to let you go for a few days without impunity. Keep your creative juices flowing with activities like scrapbooking, cooking, and redecorating.

Spending time with family reminds you of what's truly important in life. Lately, you've been so wrapped up in work and responsibility that you've forgotten why you're so busy. Devote the day to your nearest and dearest. Cooking a meal together, working on a school project or attending a game or recital will fill that emotional void. If you're far from family, take a few hours to go through old photo albums. Making a collage of these images can be therapeutic.

Making some changes to your surroundings will lift your spirits. You're tired of being surrounded by drab colours and clutter every day. If your neighbourhood has an unsightly spot, talk to the people in your community about beautifying it. By working together, you can change an eyesore into a lovely gathering spot. You'll also create a spirit of cooperation that won't die once the project is over. These days, it's a rare and precious thing to feel connected to your neighbours.

Money for luxuries comes pouring in, much to your relief. Don't feel guilty about buying yourself high priced toiletries, clothing, or jewellery. Such things are necessities to anyone ruled by the planet Venus. Of course, you don't want to go into debt. Even a small indulgence like fresh flowers can make a tremendous difference. If you're not getting paid what you are worth, now is the time to ask for a raise or find a job that pays more than the one you currently hold.

You're attracting lots of admiring glances, and it's no wonder. Your sex appeal is at an all time high. If you're in a relationship, you'll have to ward off advances from a determined admirer. Don't ruin a loving partnership for the sake of lust. If you're single you can feel free to play the field. Ultimately, you'll give your heart to someone who has a deep appreciation for art, beauty, and music. Be prepared to have your horizons widened.

A secret admirer will come forward and confess their love. You're flattered to have such a strong impact, but you're not sure whether you want to pursue this relationship. If you already have a lover, let down your fan as gently as possible. Your famed bluntness will do more harm than good in this situation. Plan a quiet weekend at a secluded holiday spot this weekend. You'll welcome the tranquillity.

Invitations pour in, proving you are more popular than you realised. It's nice to know you're in such great demand, but deep down inside, you're a little suspicious. At some point, you need to accept the fact that people like you, and have no interest in your job title or social status. It's important to check these considerations at the door before joining a party. Talking about your achievements will only put people off. Just relax and have fun.

Being the centre of attention isn't your favourite thing, but it can be quite pleasant if you're prepared. This is a good time to add some sleek, fashionable items to your wardrobe. Looking the part of a professional will give you an added boost of confidence. Of course, an iconoclast like you will want to add a distinctive flair to your outfit, like an unusual piece of jewellery, a colourful handkerchief, or a striking hat. A single statement makes the biggest impact.

Business dealings with foreigners or companies that exist abroad will go well. Your particular brand of charm impresses your contacts, prompting a great number of orders. Naturally, your boss is impressed, but may be reluctant to show it. It's up to you to ask for a promotion. If you don't, a rival will take a spot that is rightfully yours. Too often, you let more aggressive people elbow you out of the way. Don't make that mistake now, when you've made such great progress.
