It feels as though you've fallen short of your goals somehow. Actually, you've just fallen victim to the fame drug. No matter how much outward success you achieve, it's never enough. You've got to turn inward for fulfilment. Start spending time on activities that make you fulfilled, rather than exhilarated. While you're at it, pare down your work schedule. There's lots to be said for contentment. Life needn't be a constant roller coaster ride.

As an earth sign, you've always put a great deal of emphasis on material concerns. Today you may want to consider your spiritual needs. Make a list of things that give you pleasure. There's a good chance that most of the items you've named cost very little money. Get into the habit of enjoying these practices on a regular basis. Why save your favourite activities for special occasions?

Sometimes you justify expenditures by citing all the work you've performed. It doesn't seem fair that you're toiling away with nothing to show for it. Actually, you'd live a more opulent lifestyle if you made better choices with your money. Begin by paying off any debts you've accumulated. This may take time, but all of the restraint will be worth it in the long term. Financial obligation is a form of enslavement.

If a romantic relationship has taken on a parent child dynamic, you've got to make some changes. Often, you feel the urge to nurture your beloved and while your caring concern is appreciated, you need to know when to back down. Your partner can't feel self-sufficient if you're constantly cleaning up their messes. You can also strengthen your bond by being more receptive to the favours your mate is eager to bestow.

Overindulgence in food and drink could be taking a serious toll on your health. Amend your diet to include lean protein, fresh fruit and raw vegetables. Throwing a little exercise into the mix won't hurt, either. You'll be surprised at how much more productive you become once you make a few simple changes to your daily routine. If you're out of a job, start sending out CV's today. Change is in the air.

If you're a parent, you're starting to show signs of exhaustion. It simply isn't possible to put your child's needs first all of the time. At some point, you're going to have to attend to your own desires. Why not start today? Hire a baby-sitter, stop making inflated promises and enforce a strict bedtime or your resentment will build in surprising and subtle ways, driving a wedge into your most cherished relationship.

It's time to get out of the house, even if you're up to your elbows in dishes. Put on an attractive outfit and force yourself to attend a party or gathering or you'll fall victim to pessimistic thinking. You've always treated your abode as a haven from the outside world. What you may not realise is that your public life can provide welcome relief from your private one. Strike a balance!

Your mind is racing right now, making it hard to rest or focus. It's time to relax your hyper vigilance in the interest of letting your knowledge gel. Yes, you've acquired a great deal of information over the past month. Now, rather than reviewing every last detail, it's time to take a few steps back to seek the big picture. Don't worry if some facts fall through the cracks. You've still learned a great deal.

These days, people often combat anxiety with giant spending sprees. Resist this temptation today, even if you've got your eye on a few special items. You're better off finding inexpensive ways to fill the emotional void that has widened inside you. For instance, writing a letter to a distant friend can be really therapeutic. So can crafting a story, poem or article. You may even want to start a personal diary.

A personal project is finally coming to fruition, which is a huge relief. Go out and celebrate with friends. Don't hesitate to buy yourself a lavish gift for all the hard work you've done. If a romantic partner is putting too much pressure on you, ask for a reprieve. Recently, you've been going above and beyond the call of duty. Devote this day to your needs, not theirs. Nobody can accuse you of being selfish.

It feels as though your mind is has taken a break today. Instead of pressing yourself to do better, have a rest. It's probably been a long time since you've had a holiday. Lying in a dark room with a cold cloth on your head may be just what the doctor ordered. You have to admit, things have become pretty hectic at work. It's possible your colleagues are relying too heavily on you.

Although you love and appreciate your friends, you're beginning to pull away from the pack. You've always been very sensitive to your environment, and right now it feels as though you're losing your individuality. Instead of joining in group activities, express your creative side. You'll be surprised at how quickly your zest for life returns. Painting, photography and dance are all favoured. Embarking on a romance with an outsider could also be in the cards.
