You're uncharacteristically hesitant today, probably because you've ventured into unfamiliar territory. Assume that everyone you meet is a friend. That way, you won't feel scared to ask for help if you need it. If you are snubbed, laugh it off. Others will respect you for your light-hearted banter and attitude.

Don't let money worries prevent you from enjoying the finer things in life. When you deprive yourself of luxuries, you rob your soul of happiness.

Fear of failure is preventing you from taking a risk, but that's a grave mistake indeed. Opportunities like this are few and far between.

You're giving an expert almost too much credit for their ability, partly out of fear. You're just as capable as this person, if not more so.

A person may try to invade your privacy, but it's really out of concern, not nosiness. You must open up to someone who genuinely cares, or you'll alienate them. Your current inner struggle is a lot more common than you think. Once you go public with it, things will start going your way again. Secrets only fester in the dark.

It's not necessary to be so defensive with a person who calls your every action into question. Your attitude is only giving them more power. Turn the tables and perform an interrogation of your own. Be more assertive, stand up for yourself and your antagonist will back down. Every bully is a coward at heart.

You're almost resigned to stay in a dead-end job, simply because you can't be bothered to look for anything different or better. The reason you're so jaded is because your everyday duties are boring.

Make an extra effort to be helpful to everyone you meet and your efforts will be rewarded. When you spread positive energy throughout the world, you empower yourself. Face it, you're not getting very far by serving your own needs. If you open your heart just a little you will get a great deal of joy in return.

An emotional encounter helps you to air your anger and frustration. Neither one of your needs is being met by the current state of your relationship. Some radical changes are necessary if things are going to improve. Start by being more physically demonstrative. One of you needs the reassurance.

Your anxious ways are beginning to grate on those close to you, so take a deep breath and relax. The fastest way to drive somebody away is to cling too closely. Develop your own interests. Spending time alone will help you appreciate your own gifts making it easier to understand why your partner cares for you.
