News received early today should see the end of your worries if there have been setbacks or delays. As well as this, the solution to problems which have been causing some concern will also unlock the door to future progress. You may have been pushing yourself beyond a point that's healthy lately so now is the time to scale back your efforts. Plan something leisurely for the afternoon and evening hours.

Let others know you could do with some help and the cavalry will come thundering to your rescue! Accepting assistance when you are in the midst of chaos will bring a mixture of emotions: joy, relief and even guilt. This could cloud your judgement and reactions. Put feelings on hold and focus on what it will take to make your situation easier. The best thank you to give others for their kindness is to let them see the good their support has truly done for you.

Work you're doing now is more of a good turn to someone than something you are obliged to do. One reason you've chosen to devote your time towards a team effort is because it gets a favour you feel you owe someone out of the way. Even if people insist they aren't expecting anything in return for something they've done for you in the past, you will feel better once you have paid your debts.

You don't want to have to rely on others all the time, even those who seem determined to be always there for you. Another person's constant concern and their insistence on helping you every step of the way is making you feel stifled. Letting them know you want to be left alone to make your own choices isn't being ungrateful. It will feel as if a weight has been lifted off your shoulders once you let go of all that bottled up emotion.

You might somehow get more involved in a team effort you weren't interested in at first. Even if it means admitting to others you were wrong, this could be what it takes to get them to take you seriously. A joint project has all the makings of being successful and profitable in the future and you want to be a part of this. A favour you did for someone in the past could be repaid today without you even asking for it.

You're being too generous with your time or money; this is draining you of your precious resources. A loved one seems to take the loans you give them for granted and instead of paying you back, they keep coming to you for more. Volunteering your services in a community endeavour seemed like a good idea until others started to demand too much of you. You're running out of energy and you need to cut down on all you are doing for others.

You're doing your utmost to achieve harmony and balance in a home or work situation. Whereas some people seem to have no idea of the trouble and upset they are causing, you will be the one who helps them see the error of their ways. You will be discreet so others don't realise you're annoyed by their behaviour. Your calmness helps to soothe troubled waters and more than one friend or contact will be grateful for your intervention today.

If you have to go into work today, be careful this doesn't upset a member of your family. Maybe someone was expecting your company; in fact they were relying on you to be there for them and you will feel bad about letting them down. Check you've not made promises you've forgotten about. If there are misunderstandings, it would be better to sit down and sort things out before the situation gets any worse.

Other people must take responsibility for their own affairs; you can't keep helping them out. Even if it means facing unpleasant truths, you need to admit how emotionally draining it is to continuously bail out a friend or loved one. Stop telling yourself that one day they will change and be more independent. Until you withdraw your support they will rely on you. This is a habit your relationship has fallen into and it's up to you to change it.

Open your heart just a little to the love around you and you will get a great deal of joy in return. Through showing a positive face to the world and accepting the good as well as the bad of all situations, you empower yourself. Once you start seeing the results of your efforts, you might feel anything is possible. Past negative thoughts have been undermining your greater aims and wishes.

Venturing into unfamiliar territory doesn't normally bother you but you're strangely hesitant today. Making an extra effort to be helpful to old friends and new might help make you and others feel more at ease. As you spread positive energy around your world, you're likely to inspire confidence in others. Also, through taking the initiative and leading the way, you won't feel as though you're at the mercy of others.

A younger person is modelling their behaviour on yours; watch what you say or do. You may be surprised to realise how attentively someone is watching you; try to view this as being in the nicest of ways. Their hero worship could lead you to take a more stringent look at your habits and behaviour. If this causes you to make slight changes to make you a better person, the whole experience will be worth it.
