When you don't feel well, you tend to be very irritable. Try not to spread your misery to others. It's better to attend to your aches and pains in private. Get a medical consultation if you need one. Don't complain unless there is something seriously wrong and you need help. Your loved ones want you to get better. They don't want to experience your sickness vicariously. That's totally understandable and not selfish. Are you too ill to work? Take time off to recuperate.

Sometimes you don't see the point of being romantic with a partner you've known for years, but happy unions are fuelled by spontaneous gestures and passionate encounters. Force yourself out of a predictable routine for the sake of your amour. Arrange a special outing that is tailored to their interests. You'll be surprised at how excited and moved they are by your gesture. If you're single, it may be because you don't express your chivalrous side enough. Abandon yourself to love.

Don't get too caught up making your home picture perfect for a guest. It will be easier for people to relax when they aren't afraid to spill or break anything. Go ahead and clean surfaces and stow away clutter. It isn't necessary to scour behind the refrigerator or dust under the couch. Your boss might ask you to spend less time on personal phone calls. Try not to get defensive. Conducting yourself in a professional manner is critical to your future success.

Brooding over the past is pointless. You have an opportunity to make a fresh start. Stop worrying about making the same mistakes you made as a youth. You've gained a lot of experience since this time. Besides, there are different people involved. Beware of being overly critical of a close relative or neighbour. Your standards are impossibly high and can't be met by the average person. Give people credit for doing the best they can with limited knowledge and experience.

Beware of being penny wise and pound foolish. There's no point scraping and saving for small purchases when you buy extravagant clothes, cars and jewellery. If you really want to make the most of your income, open an interest earning savings account. Have the bank automatically defer a portion of your income to this fund every pay period. When you want to buy something special, save for it. Put any extra change into an empty coffee can. You'll be surprised how quickly this money accumulates.

You feel restless and nervous. Try not to take out your anxiety on your best friend or lover. They may handle stress better than you. Patterning your behaviour after theirs is a smart strategy. In the past, you discounted their cavalier attitude as naive. Now you're starting to realise there's no point worrying about the future. You can't control it, anyway, so why put extra pressure on yourself? Besides, chances are things will work out better than you expect.

Repressed anxieties are taking a toll on you. It's time to come to terms with your fears. Discuss them with a sympathetic friend. Be open to their suggestions. You might think nobody truly understands your dilemma. This is not true. Actually, you need to experiment with different methods of conquering your fear. Simply falling victim to them won't change a thing. You have more power over this issue than you realise. What begins in the mind can end with a change in attitude.

Crowds make you nervous, especially now. You won't have a chance to go off on your own. Try to be as friendly and courteous as possible. Going out of your way to accommodate a demanding authority figure will pay off. Outwardly, you should be all smiles. Inwardly, you can rage against the machine. Describing this experience in a notebook can serve as the seed for a compelling book or screenplay. No experience is ever wasted. Take this opportunity to turn garbage into gold.

You're so intent on delivering a project on time that you have forgotten about the human component of your job. Be sure to stop and enquire after a colleague's welfare. It's possible your fellow worker is dealing with some intense family problems. Expressing compassion will make a tough time just a little easier. If someone calls in sick, don't panic. You'll be able to cover for them and still meet a deadline. It's a good thing you are so thorough and organised.

Don't assume you have superior knowledge to a colleague. Although you may be a little older and have a better title, this newcomer has actually more expertise. Be open to their suggestions. If they ask for a letter of recommendation, write one. There's no reason to feel threatened by their impressive CV. You have skills they don't possess and vice-versa. By combining forces, you can help each other. Acting like adversaries will be a waste of valuable time and energy.

It's hard for you to let go and enjoy a physical relationship. Maybe you're suffering from childhood taboos. Perhaps you're not happy with the way you look. It's even possible you're unsure of what your partner wants. No matter what the problem, it can be resolved. Just be honest with your amour. Ask them to demonstrate what they want. Your partner will be happy to oblige. Are you single? It's time to reconnect with your sensual side. You'll attract romance as a result.

You have no patience to attend to small details. Ask your best friend, romantic partner or colleagues to deal with this task. If they refuse, accept their decision with good grace. They've relieved you of similar chores in the past. Maybe it's time to handle these problems on your own. Take a few deep breaths and work slowly. Ask questions if you think you've missed something. Your loved ones will applaud your independent stance. They always knew you were capable of such tasks.
