It is the emotional well being of a friend or loved one which concerns you most today. You might want to check on someone to see how they're doing after having been through a difficult time. You won't want to make your concern too obvious. Calling by for a coffee and chat is all that's needed to ease your mind. Single? A new romance is about to begin and this will have been worth waiting for.

You might be concerned about the rising costs of a proposed outing with others. An original agreement has been changed without your consent and you are now seriously considering pulling out altogether. Rather than letting others assume you go along with new arrangements, let them know immediately you aren't happy. Either a compromise will be reached or you will walk out and leave others to it.

You could come into contact with the neighbourhood gossip who can't seem to resist revealing all the latest scandal. Some of this will be of interest. Mostly, you will disregard what you hear. Your powers of persuasion are riding high. You can coax someone into agreeing with your plans and ideas by being bold about them. A new relationship will start to progress once you are honest about the joint plans you hope to make for the future.

There is some contrariness in what you do today; even you are confused by your moods and emotions. You want to get your financial affairs in order but a mood to indulge in a spending spree also has you in its grip. It will take restraint and self discipline to stop you from going overboard in your spending. You won't feel so broke by the end of the day if you find something else to do like a hobby or some form of exercise.

The more people around you and the more you are on the go today the happier and more fulfilled you will feel. You need to be busy and because of this you will want to get away from people or situations that seem quiet, dull or boring. Even if you had already made plans, you will happily change your mind should better opportunities come your way. You certainly won't look a gift horse in the mouth!

It's a day when you might enjoy extra seclusion and battery charging peace! The hours sail by with no unexpected hindrances marring this tranquil day. The absence of someone you usually find difficult to rub along with makes you feel so much more relaxed and at ease. By this evening a feeling of total well being will flow through you. It is not often you feel so stress free!

Someone is putting on a brave face and you can see behind their facade. You will admire the way they are struggling to hide their fears but you cannot stand back and watch while a friend or loved one gets involved in something they aren't comfortable with. The situation will take delicate handling but you will find an excuse today to prevent them from having to proceed any further.

You might want to keep a watchful eye on a friend who is having problems in their personal life. Although you won't want to interfere, a word or two of guidance will be gratefully accepted. Even being willing to listen and go over some particulars over and over could help prevent someone from making a foolish move. Devoting your time to others will not be begrudged. After all, that's what friends are for!

The idea of being on the move appeals but you may not be keen on visiting an old friend who is expecting you. Your feelings about this meeting may have changed since it was first arranged. If it has been some time since you saw each other and you feel it would be better not to meet, trust your instincts. You could still enjoy a trip out but without the social aspects that were to go with it.

If you are prepared to meet other people half way, you can expect equal consideration from others. Single? New romantic prospects have you sailing through the day with your feet hardly touching the ground! Relationships are harmonious and you feel more relaxed because of this. Domestic chores and other tasks are pushed leisurely to one side as you prefer to allow all the stress and tension of the last few days drain away.

Your independent streak comes to the fore now. You will avoid anything that smacks of restriction, commitment and constraint. If a partner tries to push you into making decisions of a joint nature you are likely to take the opposite stance to them. Your aim is to prove you will not be bound by anyone else's routines or expectations but are you taking your need for freedom a bit too far?

You need to find out about something but you don't want others to know what you are up to. You will get the information you are looking for by weaving conversations around the subject. Dive straight into the heart of the matter and others will quickly suss what is going on. It isn't easy to be discreet but subtlety is necessary if you are to get things to go your way.
