When it comes right down to it, you'd rather be a controversial figure than a nonentity. Be sure to put in an appearance at a big party, where all eyes will be on you. A jealous colleague could make a catty comment. Laugh it off as it only underlines the fact that you're fab and they're drab.

Friends may be threatened by a romance. You're finding it difficult to find time for both your chums and your amour. Be honest about your situation.

This will make both parties less resentful of each other.

An emergency at work could force you to go to the office on the weekend. Although you're less than thrilled about sacrificing your personal time for your professional life, it's got to be done.

This will restore a relationship that is more precious than gold. Your health is quite robust, allowing you to take extra work assignments. A few freelance jobs may be all it takes to put you back the in black. If you're swimming in credit card debt, contact an agency to consolidate these bills.

An intense encounter with your amour, business partner, estate agent, or lawyer could prompt you to change your ways. You've got to adopt a more forgiving attitude if this relationship is going to continue.

Just because he's a workaholic doesn't mean you should be one.

Surprising news about a neighbour or sibling changes your opinion of them. In the past, you thought their behaviour was daft. Now you see the method behind their madness.

A new source of income could become suddenly available to you. It may be wise to keep this bit of good luck a secret, or you'll have everyone asking you for loans.

Resist the urge to go on a spending spree, as this is not a good time to run up debts.
