Don't worry if you and someone close can't see eye to eye early in the day. As time wears on, you will feel differently. Once you start seeing things from the other person's point of view, you will realise there is more than one way to look at a certain issue. By this evening, either you or they will think of an ideal compromise and harmony will be restored. A younger female relative will make stimulating and refreshing company now.

Expect one of those frustrating days when even the most simple of tasks will be plagued with difficulties beyond belief. People are awkward and uncooperative, finding problems where there should be none. Resist the temptation to daydream or you could become careless or forgetful. A brisk walk or a work out at the gym might help rid you of a build up of nervous energy.

Like toothache, the need to attend to dull but essential duties must be endured until you find a cure for the problem! Having nothing to look forward to each day but a mass of uninspiring tasks does nothing to rouse your enthusiasm. To compound the feeling, you might not be in the best of health. One way to resolve the frustration you are now feeling is to end commitments that are becoming too tying or restricting.

You want to pay a friend back for the help and support they have given you in the past. Someone has recently been through a difficult time. You will show your understanding by making their day special in some weird and wonderful way. For a change, you will insist you are the one to call the tune. Consider the day good for acting on spontaneous ideas.

Even when you're out and about, there is a strong desire to enjoy the comfort of your own four walls. As a Leo, you normally like to be where all the action is but today all you crave is peace and quiet. If during the daylight hours you have no option but to get on with everyday business, at least in the evening, it shouldn't be too difficult to fulfil your solitary longings.

A contrary day when snags, difficulties and frustrations alternate with periods of effective efficiency. An electrical or plumbing problem will need professional assistance. Think twice before repairing a fault that is likely to occur again. Paying extra money for a replacement might be the cheaper solution in the long term. A spur of the moment decision to get together with friends will lift your spirits, this evening.

The confused pattern that begins the day will sort itself out as the hours wear on. By this evening you will feel far more settled. It could be changes taking place at home or a new career direction that is causing the awkward atmosphere. Others may not be as forward looking as you but you won't hesitate to grasp any opportunity likely to bring improvements your way.

Touchiness in other people could mar your day. Friends and colleagues might interpret your willingness to help them as interference. This will generate a degree of resentment and you could find yourself holding back from saying anything. You just don't know how others are going to take you. This evening, your partner will know just how to make you forget all the trials and tribulations of the daylight hours!

When someone comes up with weird ideas the last thing you want to do is dampen their enthusiasm or bruise their ego. Sharing dreams and schemes is all a necessary part of planning a life together and in close relationships especially, this should be encouraged and not discouraged. Even so, you need to be tactful when a friend or partner voices some crazy plans all your instincts warn you to reject immediately!

Today you could find yourself talking about issues you rarely discuss and this is tremendously therapeutic. Some strange influences are at work and these will bring you and someone who will be important in your future, together. You can't hide some facets of your nature as if they don't exist. As someone draws you out of your shell and encourages you to express yourself emotionally and sexually, you will feel relief in getting some thoughts out into the open.

Keep smiling when you are faced with a variety of problems at home or at work. These will be temporary and are probably entirely due to clashes in personalities. It might be up to you to try and smooth out ruffled feathers and keep the peace but this won't be a thankless task. Others will be grateful for your placid intervention and they will admit that perhaps they have been acting rather childishly.

Leave dealing with taxation, investment and insurances schemes until another day. If there are binding decisions to be made, you need more time to think things over. Your judgement is not good and you could make a wrong move. Consult others before making any kind of move; get a second, even third opinion. There is no harm in doing some investigation today but it's not a good idea to take action.
