Words said in the heat of the moment could come back and haunt you. Instead of reacting instantly and thinking about it later, count to ten backwards and then forward again if need be. What's important is you don't reveal what's on your mind to anyone before you've had a chance to consider your thoughts. It can be surprising how the smallest new leaf can make a big difference. People will show you more respect when you are in control of your emotions.

If you haven't done anything to betray a partner's trust in you, their suspicious behaviour will cause you some concern. A new friendship could be putting a strain on an existing relationship when it seems as if every friend is looked on as a threat to your union. If a partner's possessiveness is interfering with your other concerns you might be better off apart. Let them know what you're thinking to give them a chance to change their ways.

Does it really make sense to go back to someone who behaved in a way that left you feeling miserable and devastated? If you're just starting to get over a recent disappointment and you're given a chance to start up all over again, think about it rationally. Think with your head and not your heart to avoid making the wrong choice now. A leopard can't change its spots. If someone cheated on you in the past, they could easily do so again.

Are you committing to a relationship just because you want someone's company? Or is it that you really do care for them and there is nothing else you would rather do? Making a long term commitment to avoid loneliness has its advantages but there are disadvantages too. Will you be happy with someone you don't really love? What if eventually they make you miserable? Staying single would mean you are free to team up, in the future, with a more compatible mate.

Don't be in a rush to move in together if you're in a new relationship. It might sound like a good idea at the time but do you know enough about each other to decide on whether you really are compatible? Take your time and enjoy the anticipation of what could happen if it all works out as you hope. If a new colleague is taking too much interest in your personal life it is boundary setting time. Protect your privacy and your personal space.

Every little detail about a coming event will be discussed yet there are still many unanswered questions. Problems with the venue or safety of planned activities need to be ironed out. Let the powers that be know you are willing to negotiate as no one wants to give up on this idea when you've already put so much effort into it. You have been in a situation long enough to know who isn't to be trusted and who you can rely on to get things done.

You have been avoiding the moment for long enough and people are expecting you now to make a decision. Your intuition is running at high levels so you can afford to come down off your Libran fence and act on hunches. Others will praise you for deliberating over your choice and making the right one. Little do they know that when push came to shove you actually made it on a spontaneous whim.

Emotions don't always have to be shared; there is nothing wrong with keeping your feelings to yourself. You're going through something that's personal to you. At times like these withdrawing from the social world is not a symptom of tension, stress or depression. You just need to do some quiet thinking. It's frustrating that some people aren't able to understand this side of your nature and they think that you should talk about it. What you really need is for them to leave you alone.

A friend you had expected more from fails to support you at a time when you need them. You won't be asking a lot from them, just simply to be there when you could do with some advice or even just to back you up in an argument. What hurts the most is how supportive you've always been when they needed you. Possibly they have taken your sensitivity for granted whilst having none of their own.

The wellbeing of an older relative or friend may give you some cause for worry. This is not a concern you should ignore. A partner or professional will offer solid support over this matter and either you will discover the situation is not as bad as it seemed or steps can be taken to ensure those who need it, get the help they deserve. Far from being annoyed with you for taking the initiative, others will be glad of your concern.

Save a gift you have for someone until you feel more confident about giving it to them. If you aren't sure how they will react to a gesture motivated totally from the heart, the moment you reveal your innermost thoughts has to feel right for you. You're ready to move a relationship onto a more intimate level and there's a high chance your partner feels the same way. Once thoughts are out in the open you will both be immensely relieved.

A friend could do with your help in pointing them in the right direction. Before giving them any advice, look at the problem from their standpoint and not yours. What you would do in these circumstances may not be right for them. You have met someone who is truly amazing but when you discover they have been checking your text messages and emails without telling you, your estimation of them goes down a few notches. You may need to re-evaluate this relationship.
