Once you have your mind fixed on a goal, nothing and no-one will be allowed to stand in your way. You could be trying to prove something to yourself, to a senior colleague or to a partner and it is this determination to succeed that will get results.

Being able to perform a challenging task in your own way and at your own speed will bring fulfilment. At last you have a chance to put a creative or artistic talent to use in your work and other areas. A breakthrough will come about unexpectedly.

You have been cutting out luxuries in order to meet other expenses. There's a strong temptation to spend more than is sensible on leisure and pleasure and you are telling yourself that a little extravagance is justified. The problem is that splashing out on unnecessary items will leave you struggling to pay household bills.

You won't be intimidated by anyone's scathing comments. If they don't expect you to succeed they are in for a surprise. It won't take a lot of effort to get results because you are skilled and you do know what you are doing.

Someone close has got themselves into a rut. They seem to have no idea on how to handle a problematic situation. You can understand their dilemma and your advice on how to ease themselves from this burden will be gratefully received.

Accepting an invitation to take a trip to somewhere different could bring a number of surprises your way. If you are single, love will hit you even though you may not have been looking for a romantic partner. Your life will never be the same again.

Your boss has been watching your performance and they are impressed by what they see. You could find yourself on a short-list for promotion. People who are starting to get to know you well will also know they can trust you. You might be chosen to join them in a great business opportunity.

If you go ahead with plans to make some changes in the home without consulting your family, there will be objections. So pause for a moment and consider whether you have given this matter enough thought. It's not a good idea to act on a spontaneous whim.

Don't hesitate with your response when you are given first refusal to an opportunity you have had your eyes on for a while. Now that you have this chance to do something you have always wanted to do, you don't want to let it pass you by.

Take up a friend's offer to collaborate on a creative project together. You will be at your best when doing anything that enables you to combine your practical skills with imagination. Don't be surprised when new commissions suddenly start to pour in. You will work well as a team.

You might wish you hadn't agreed to help a neighbour or colleague out when they ask for a favour. This is likely to take up a lot of your time and because you hadn't expected it to take so long, it might be necessary to cancel a meeting or appointment. Some people don't seem to realise you do actually have other things to do.

It doesn't matter if you have carried out some jobs dozens of times before, there will be new challenges in assignments you take on today. A need to keep costs low will mean spending time searching for materials at reduced prices. Don't rush into anything feet first.
