You're in a dreamy, romantic mood which permeates everything you do. People are quite surprised to witness your gentle attitude; they're used to seeing you whiz through life like a bullet. Perhaps your rough edges have been smoothed by a romance. Maybe you've recently seen a movie or read a book that touched your heart. Whatever the reason, it's nice to this new side. Keep a creative project under wraps for the time being.

Your association with a humanitarian or scientific group proves quite fulfilling. There's strength in numbers, and you know you can get your goals accomplished with the help of your friends. It's possible you will be asked to take charge of a committee and while you don't relish the idea of added responsibility, it is flattering people have so much faith in your leadership ability. The secret to your ultimate success is your affection for your team.

You could get public acclaim for an unusual accomplishment. Leave it to you to make the world's biggest ball of string or eat a record amount of clams. Some people wonder why you waste your time with such trivia, but for you it's not a waste. The whole point is to have fun. If you put your mind to it, you could probably swim the English Channel or make a record amount of sales, but such activities involve hard work, and who needs that?

An unorthodox belief system allows you to make friends from all walks of life. People enjoy your open minded attitude and feel secure in discussing their ideas with you. That's because you're not intent on converting others to your way of thinking. On the contrary, you're excited to hear different perspectives; they lend depth to your own understanding. A friend may propose a pilgrimage to a holy place. This sounds like a fantastic plan to you. Pack your bags!

Sudden financial gain allows you to celebrate in style this weekend. Treat yourself to a lavish dinner, a beautiful piece of jewellery, or theatre tickets. Your love of luxury shouldn't be suppressed; it makes life worthwhile. Relatives may click their tongues at your extravagant ways, but don't let their disapproval bother you. You're an exceptional person, and are meant to live an extraordinary life. If that means indulging in a bit of glamour, so be it.

You're so tired of people who always do the sensible thing. Maybe that's why you're extremely attracted to an irreverent rebel. Being in this person's company makes you feel like anything is possible. This association will cause plenty of tongues to wag. Onlookers can't figure out if the two of you are friends, lovers, or what. Keep the gossips guessing; it's fun to create a little scandal. A heated quarrel clears the air between you and a man who drives you crazy.

Although you normally enjoy working alongside a partner, it's probably best to go solo today. Dragging someone along will only slow you down. This is a wonderful day to attend to chores that have been piling up over the past few weeks. You could hit upon some time saving methods as you try juggling responsibilities. Beware of driving yourself too hard, though you'll end up nodding off at a party, just as it starts heating up.

A sudden romantic attraction could sweep you off your feet. You've never shied away from obsessions, but this one has a different quality than the others. Something about the object of your affection churns up angry feelings. It's possible this person reminds you of somebody who rejected you in the past. Alternatively, your amour could represent a long abandoned dream. Before acting on this attraction, consider its underlying origins. Maybe the prospect of falling in love is really a distraction from settling an old score.

Don't worry if your home life doesn't resemble anyone else's. All that matters is that it suits your lifestyle. Too many people worry about fitting in with the crowd and they try to conform to systems that sap their energy. For instance, a woman who has no talent for cooking insists on making meals. Similarly, a man who has no technical ability insists on performing DIY projects. Refuse to fall into such a trap.

A love of new ideas prompts you to brush up on your technical skills. Mastering a software program can make you a better photographer, filmmaker, designer, or musician. Stop telling yourself you have no creative abilities. Everyone is an artist. Tapping your talent is a matter of giving yourself permission to experiment. Cynics will say only professional artists have any business writing, painting, or drawing. That's probably why they're so unhappy.

A chance to earn money could drop into your lap quite unexpectedly and although you'll have to make some last minute adjustments to your schedule, that extra trouble will be worth it. You'll have to move quickly to get ahead of the competition. That's probably why this endeavour appeals to you. Although you hate to admit it, you can be quite ambitious, particularly when it comes to promoting radical ideas and time saving technology.

Some people call you eccentric, but your loved ones know you're really inventive. Your best ideas usually come from taking an unorthodox approach and though it may take acquaintances a long time to get used to your methods, they'll eventually see the wisdom of your ways. If somebody tries to get you to conform to the status quo, fight back with force. You need to guard your individuality like a sacred flame.
