Forcing a woman to adopt your methods will be an exercise in futility. She's intent on doing things her own way. Besides, you may not realise it, but this lady has plenty of experience in this area. Stop playing the world weary teacher and pay attention to her techniques. You just might learn something new. The next four weeks are ideal for socialising. You're sure to get lots of invitations. You may want to buy some new outfits.

Don't dip into a savings account, particularly if someone else's money is involved. Buying an expensive piece of equipment could cause a big argument. Plunging yourself into debt will take a heavy toll on all of your relationships. If you owe somebody money, start paying it back on a regular basis. You'll have to make some personal sacrifices, but it's better than being in this person's bad graces. Fortunately, improved career opportunities could arrive over the next month.

Try not to sap a business or romantic partner's energy. Although you're bursting with enthusiasm, this person needs to be handled with kid gloves. Urging them to go on a strenuous hike, bike ride, or run could push them over the edge. By all means, get the exercise you need, and then proceed to pamper your friend. Keep the noise level down and tell boisterous children to play outside. Everybody has their way of coping with stress; try to be accommodating.

You'll have to go to superhuman lengths to contain your anger at a woman. While everybody else is working hard, she's lazing around watching television. Instead of wasting your energy on her, focus on doing the best job you can. Arrange to give yourself a luxurious reward at the end of the day. If you keep depriving yourself of creature comforts, you'll just compound your anger. Maybe this is why you're so uptight; she knows how to treat herself gently.

People may not be able to keep up with your relentless energy. Be especially tender towards a lover or child. You may not realise it, but this person wants to impress you. By slowing your pace just a little, the two of you could have a wonderful day together. If you're looking for love, you may want to scale back your displays of strength. Your soft side is tremendously appealing. Don't be afraid to show it to someone you admire.

Just because you've been put in charge doesn't give you the right to bully others. Be gentle with someone who has just arrived on the scene. Although this person will seem hopelessly soft, they'll soon develop calluses. It's just a matter of easing them into the position. Make allowances for their inexperience, and praise even the smallest breakthroughs. Yes, progress will be slowed by this newcomer, but it can't be helped. Summon your patience. It's an essential component of any leader's toolkit.

You're eager to explore unknown territory, but someone you love wants to stay closer to home. It's hard not to resent this close minded attitude. However, you'll need to scale back your plans if you're going to maintain this relationship. Forcing this person to follow your footsteps will only result in disaster. If you truly can't bear being held back, it may be best to part ways, at least for the short term future. Getting some distance from each other can lend perspective.

You're intent on fulfilling your physical desires, but your partner may have other plans. If you'd like to fuel the flames of passion, you need to take a subtle approach. Soft words and gentle caresses are the best way to soften your amour's heart. If you really want to score points with this person, relieve them of some dreaded chores. Nothing is more seductive than being told you don't have to take out the garbage or fold the laundry.

Picking a quarrel with a close associate may be inevitable. You're feeling quite contentious. If you continue to insist getting your way, you could tear a permanent hole in this relationship. You've been blessed with considerable charm, which makes it easy to convert people to your side. When it comes to intimate relationships, though, you need to practice give and take. If a friend or business associate wants something different or new give it a try.

Beware of driving yourself too hard, or you could get injured. There's no point in wasting a perfectly beautiful day in hospital. Treat yourself gently. If you want exercise, try yoga or gentle jogging. Gentle movement is more beneficial than aerobic activity today. An addiction to work could rear its ugly head. Force yourself to put these duties on the back burner. The weekend is meant for leisurely pursuits like sports, movies, and books.

Don't let a spirit of competition ruin a perfectly pleasant gathering. If you play a game, don't keep score. If you'd like to gamble, keep the stakes low, or better yet, avoid playing for money. It's especially important to be encouraging towards children. Give young people a generous handicap. After all, there can't be much satisfaction in beating the pants off someone who is years younger than you. If you happen to lose a contest, don't throw a temper tantrum.

Resist the urge to break away from a family commitment. While it's true you could find many more enjoyable ways to spend your time, you wouldn't want to hurt a relative's feelings. This lady has been far too kind and generous to treat her shabbily. Sometimes being a good friend requires putting your own needs aside for the sake of somebody else. Usually, this comes naturally to you, but lately, you've become weary of self sacrifice.
