New faces or opportunities in your business world will be like a breath of fresh air. A vivacious person who always inspires you wants to be a part of your life. Time spent with friends or workmates on a one to one basis will be time well spent. Knowing the right people is the key to opening new doors and you're making valuable future contacts through establishing new relationships.

What's good for you may not appeal to someone close; a compromise must be reached. Whoever is affected by your current actions should be consulted before you go any further. Deal promptly with health or medical matters no matter how irrelevant they may seem. If you're spending more time than usual with a colleague or neighbour expect jealousy or resentment from your significant other.

You're being coerced into falling in with someone else's plans; they aren't thinking about anyone but themselves. It won't be in your best interests to go along with their ideas in fact it could work against you. You're inclined to willingly acquiesce to keep the peace but this is not a good idea. Glad tidings will come your way at the end of the day; these set you on track towards a new and brighter future.

Another person's lack of enthusiasm dampens your interest in a project you had high hopes for. Do you need their approval or support? If not, why not go ahead without them. The hostile reactions you're getting from someone else shouldn't stop you from continuing alone. You respect that others have a right to their own views. Demand the same kind of consideration from them. To clear your thoughts take a walk by yourself in silence.

Be inquisitive and polite in a formal situation; people will talk if they feel you are really interested. Appearances can be deceptive and someone's dignified air could be hiding a sensitive and nervous personality. Greet a stranger with a nod or a smile and you will make their day. It is entirely possible someone's world might seem like a cold and lonely place and just a few words from you adds the warmth and friendliness they are so in need of.

Don't be too quick to turn down an invitation to travel even if you aren't keen on your travelling companions. Think of the future and it could well be you will benefit from a change of scene. Even if you aren't in the mood now, by the time plans are made you will feel very differently. Tweak arrangements around to suit you more if need be as it is unlikely anyone will object to your suggestions.

Thinking too much about a recent event that went wrong will only make you miserable and depressed. If there is something you've always wanted to try, this is the day to go for it. Your biggest worry might be a lack of self confidence coupled with being oversensitive in areas such as interviews and ordinary social occasions. You might under estimate your capabilities; push fears to the back of your mind and go for what you really want.

How you react in a tense situation will determine how other people will respond too. If you instantly show your disapproval to a suggestion without thinking, others will also reject new ideas. Then you may find later they were worth considering. Someone in power wants to call the tune and you're trying to protect your ego. Push your own feelings aside; be logical and fair before you take action.

An event you had looked forward to arrives and is a big disappointment. Your anticipation has come to an end and it seems as if there's nothing more to excite your senses or look forward to. Don't let this stop you from making new plans for the future. You do have some power over what happens next as long as you do something definite. If you do nothing someone else is going to make the next choices.

Sometimes it feels more comfortable to take the back seat and follow other people's directions. You may not be in the mood to make decisions or take on too much responsibility. In which case there's no harm leaving it to another person to temporarily lead the way. Choose to deal with something you can handle today and leave anything confusing, complicated or problematical to others.

Home or property matters need immediate attention. It's only sensible to see to essential repairs when a stitch in time will save you a lot of future hassle. A recent misunderstanding in the family has been resolved and harmony is restored. You're inclined to go along with a loved one's ideas for the future but decisions regarding legal, property or financial matters need to be more thoroughly thought through.

Throwing yourself into your work and current commitments could be a manifestation of loneliness or disappointment. Something or someone has you all churned up inside. If something is lacking in your life, don't try to fill the void with drink, drugs or directing your affections towards those who may not want it. Instead turn to a good friend or counsellor who might help you find a better solution.
