Instead of rushing in you will stand back and take an objective view of the situation. You aren't in a rush to draw conclusions. Before passing judgement you will want to think about it. This puts you ahead of others who are too quick to react and who will later admit their views have been coloured by emotion.

It's striking how the tone of a day can change so very quickly. Don't be misled if the morning starts quietly and slowly. Although it may seem as if it might continue at the same pace, from midday onwards some unexpected demands could bring a whirl of activity.

A long talk with someone you thought you knew really well could leave you bewildered. A partner, close friend or relative is not acting the way you were expecting. Their views are totally different to what you had expected to hear and today's conversations could change the future of this relationship.

You may not want to admit it when you overhear a conversation but you could be really interested in the topic being discussed. When you hear of a good opportunity, you will feel you were meant to be in this place at this time. For this is something you will want to act on, whether you share your intentions or not.

You're trying to keep a secret from someone but this could backfire on you when there is a strong chance they already know what's going on. Be careful about how you answer their questions. It would be better to be open in all your dealings and that way you won't have to watch your every step.

Instead of worrying about what other people think, think about pleasing yourself. It doesn't matter what your friends, neighbours or even relatives might say. What matters is that you are happy. It's about time you did something that made you smile. When was the last time, for instance, that you had a good laugh?

You could do with talking some problems over. Be careful who you turn to for advice. If you reveal your worries to someone you haven't known long, they could make your private business everyone else's. Instead choose to talk to someone who knows you well and who can understand the whole picture.

Someone will hint they suspect you of having deliberately been ignoring their text messages. They feel as if you have let them down when they weren't able to get a hold of you when they needed you. Don't let them make you feel guilty. It's about time some people were less reliant on others.

The spotlight is on a close and treasured relationship. You and a partner have a lot of talking to do. If you respect each other's views, you will be able to make headway in joint affairs. You will be able to ease the mind of a workmate who is worried about an upcoming meeting or appointment.

A loved one will suddenly decide to do something unusual and out of character. You might not find out about their adventurous plans until they have made all the arrangements. Although their impulsiveness will take you by surprise, you could grow to quite like this kind of spontaneity.

New rules and regulations have made the workplace seem dull and unstimulating. You wondered how long this was going to last. The good news is new faces are about to enter the scene and their high spirits will lift the heavy cloud that's been hovering over your working environment.

You wouldn't normally chose to be in the spotlight and yet you are becoming the centre of attention. A group project will go well thanks to your knowledge and talents. You have the skills needed to help the wheels keep turning and others will be happy to let you lead the way.
