Kicking up a fuss is counterproductive if you don’t go along with someone’s choice and they refuse to change their mind. Instead, use the weekend to take a critical look at yourself and your life ambitions. Any dependency on one person is perilously close to exposing a relationship weakness.

Everyone makes mistakes but the wise admit to the error of their ways and move on. If any kind of investment shows signs of loss, don’t try and salvage things by throwing good money after bad. Admit that you have backed a loser and search for more worthwhile ways to gain recompense.

If only someone had bothered to find out how you felt there would be no need for this weekend’s intense confrontation. You’re in no mood to stand for any nonsense and will have no compunction at slamming the door in a person’s face without looking back. You won’t let your heart be trifled with.

If you have been on the receiving end of someone’s oppressive behaviour, powerful support from behind-the scenes or an official source gives you the confidence to act forcefully and decisively. Refuse to let anyone mess with your emotions - just let them know that you are your own person.

You can’t help but want to feel like a new person with your stars. Your talents have been stifled for too long so it’s time to let it all hang out. Your old friends won’t recognise you if you decide to opt for a more fulfilling future based on chucking out the old, outdated and past it for good.

If you’ve been trading personal freedom for the sake of your family or pursuing fame and fortune then you must redress the balance. By all means follow an all-consuming passion but not at the risk of losing simple pleasures or fair quality of life. It’s time to weigh up ambitious pros-and-cons.

With great long-term changes taking place around you now it’s a shame that someone you think so highly of is behaving negatively and being unsupportive. If you didn’t know better you would swear they were envious or even jealous of what you: perhaps that’s not so wide of the mark, my friend.

Being committed to heavy obligations makes your private life tense. You can only take so much and there are responsibilities weighing you down based on a complex web of sex, money and emotions, It needs sorting before everyone loses out. Consider cutting off choking ties to free yourself up now.

Even if you try to stifle your feelings and reactions, you won’t avoid a showdown with someone close. What you discover is part of a learning process about intensely personal issues and your attitude to commitment as a whole. Watch out for a very manipulative woman who plays a mean game.

Stress levels and tension generally must be reduced as your stars force you to seriously consider health and work issues separately or jointly. If life has sidelined you of late, then rearrange your priorities to suit your inner needs to enable you to cope better with powerful outside influences.

A catalyst occurs this weekend when you either accept that a love match is about to go out and you’re ready to ditch it or want a more meaningful affair with a view to a definite commitment. Such a move one way or another will give your life more purpose and you’ll know where you stand.

A house or career decision, family or money crisis are sample manifestations of this weekend. It’s never an easy process when Kismet takes control. Fate shadows your free-will now as you have procrastinated for so long that you are in danger of losing out. You choose or let events do it for you.
