Knowing the truth is more important than massaging your ego. When people deliver painful criticism, you receive it calmly. After taking a few moments to decide whether this feedback is justified, you use it to improve your relationship skills. This is an admirable practice. Realising a childhood ambition has become an increasing priority. You're tired of filling your days with mundane tasks. Instead of maintaining the status quo, try for something better. It's better to try and fail than always wonder what might have been.

You judge others based on what you know, rather than who they are. This egalitarian attitude helps you assemble a successful team. You have no problem working with eccentrics, provided they produce superior results. If that means cultivating an informal office environment, so be it. Don't be insecure about your intellectual abilities. Although you're not always a quick learner, you never forget a fact once it has been absorbed. When you take time and effort to study, you will emerge as a respected expert.

Your way with words is charming. If you play your cards right, you could become a professional writer. Earning money from your communication skills will give you a big boost. Someone with your intelligence needs a career involving lots of variety and intellectual stimulation. Curiosity about a foreign culture should be satisfied. This is a good time to take a foreign language course. Being able to easily communicate in a glamorous country will make your travels much more rewarding.

Someone will confide a secret. This information can help you financially. Making an investment, taking out an insurance policy or starting a savings account are all ways to increase the flow of money to you. Stop putting all your eggs in one basket. Your deep love of a subject should be developed and pursued. Instead of pouring all your energy into mundane tasks, devote more energy to your hobby. The more you concentrate on this subject, the happier you'll be. You might even find a job involving this passion.

Working as part of a team is stimulating. You're good at creating an eye-catching effect, but need a partner who has strong organisational abilities. By combining forces, you can run a successful business. Divide the profits straight down the middle. Signing a contract will make life more stable. It's nice to have a steady stream of business from a reliable client. Aspects of your agreement will be unusual, since you're working with a unique product. A traditional deal won't suit your needs.

You're a conscientious worker who is sometimes overlooked by your employer. They've come to rely on you to keep things functioning smoothly. If you feel neglected, take this opportunity to ask for a raise. After listing your contributions, you'll get more money. A health consultation will be informative. You'll learn the source of an ache or pain that has been sapping your energy. Getting more sleep will cause this condition to go away. An ultra-productive person must rest well to realise your full potential.

You're highly charming. People let down their defences when speaking with you. That's because you manage to cut through superficial considerations and get straight to the heart of the matter. Discover what uplifts, inspires and informs everyone you meet. Are you looking for love? You'll find it with someone who is unlike anyone else in your social circle. Don't worry about what your friends will say when you arrive at a party with this offbeat admirer. The only thing that matters is that you adore each other.

You seem to know what others are thinking and feeling without their saying a word. Use your intuition to strengthen a relationship with someone who shares your desire for an unusual home life. Moving in together is a distinct possibility. Alternatively, you could form a community organisation that is dedicated to attracting small businesses to the area. Supporting entrepreneurs is one of the best ways to promote good neighbourhood relations. People are tired of enriching faceless corporations that have no investment in their customers.

This is a good time to catch up on your correspondence. Take time out of your busy schedule to return phone calls, emails and text messages. Touching base with an innovative person will pave the way to a rewarding partnership. If you're going to have a meeting with someone who works in an unusual field, don't worry. Learning a few things about their industry will pave the way for a productive conversation. Have a few questions ready for this expert; they'll be flattered by your interest.

Rather than taking chances, you plot your progress slowly and steadily. Impatient people think you're being unnecessarily cautious. Resist their attempts to increase your speed. Slow and steady wins the race, especially when it comes to finding a good job. Pursuing an education will improve your professional prospects. Learning how to write computer code, speak a foreign language or make pastry is strongly advised. Choose a subject that fills you with joy every time you think about it.

One of the reasons you are so popular is that you show an interest in everyone you meet. You're very good at finding out what excites people, asking intriguing questions about their favourite subjects. It's the reason you receive so many invitations. You have a powerful voice that can change minds and inspire confidence. This is a wonderful time to promote an idea, programme or service designed to help large parts of the community. Bring people together to make the world a better place.

Retreating from the harsh demands of public life is strongly advised. You're sensitive to your surroundings. When you're immersed in a toxic environment, take a break from it. Turn your thoughts to memories, plans and ideas that fill you with happiness. It's easy to find alternatives to unwanted situations when you're in a good mood. Suddenly, it becomes less important to satisfy public opinion. What's imperative is satisfying your own conscience. Quitting a job, leaving a relationship or ending an addiction are among the possibilities.
