You're quarrelsome. Picking fights with your business or romantic partner may be stimulating for you, but it's tiring for everyone else involved. There are better ways of getting attention. Make it your mission to make your other half feel appreciated. Do not compromise your values to achieve goals. You have a stellar reputation to protect. Breaking the rules, using inferior materials or exaggerating costs will cause more trouble than it is worth. Be honest and have faith that your high principles will be rewarded.

Pushing yourself past the brink of exhaustion is a bad idea. When your body yearns for rest, you should stop what you're doing and take a nap. Even closing your eyes for ten minutes can bring the refreshment you need. You distrust new ideas, which inhibits growth. The next time someone suggests trying something new, you should agree. You'll be pleasantly surprised by how well this method works. The nice thing about keeping an open mind is that it gets easier with practice.

A creative project isn't going the way you want. Rather than forcing the issue, turn your back on the problem. Keep busy with mundane tasks. A brilliant breakthrough will occur while you're chopping vegetables or folding laundry. Give your subconscious a chance to play. It's difficult to let down your defences with a romantic partner. You love discussing ideas, but talking about your emotions is another matter. Make a small confession and see what happens. Contrary to what you expect, the world won't fall apart.

If there's anything you dislike, it's being given orders by a pushy relative. You have excellent instincts about managing time and setting priorities. It isn't necessary for someone else to push you. Set some clear boundaries and don't back down. Someone hasn't been keeping their promises. You've grown tired of their excuses. Instead of clinging to this relationship, go your own way. You're an extremely capable person who doesn't need anyone else to pay the bills or give emotional support.

Resist the impulse to jump to conclusions. Just because someone likes creature comforts does not mean they are spoiled. There's a good chance a new neighbour has worked hard for all the wealth they have accumulated. Get to know them before passing judgment. There is enough work to go around for everyone. Insisting on doing everything yourself will create resentment. Do your fair share and then leave the rest for colleagues, relatives, friends or roommates. Give thanks for their contributions, too.

Impulsive spending will get you in trouble. It's better to keep your hard-earned cash in the bank, where it will shield you from uncertainty. Don't worry; there will be opportunities to indulge in retail therapy. Right now, it's best to be frugal. Resist the temptation to manage someone's free time. A child or romantic partner knows how to have fun. They don't need you to dictate their schedule or criticise their priorities. By letting them follow their impulses, your relationship will improve.

Don't make any hasty decisions. When a relative pushes your buttons, it's best to make a strategic retreat. Doing something out of spite will be cause for regret. You must think about your best course of action. Taking a steady job will create financial security. If you lack love, be your own best friend. Give yourself the time, attention and support you need to thrive. If that means taking a relaxing holiday or enjoying retail therapy, go for it. When you treat yourself well, others will follow your example.

If you had trouble mastering a subject when you were young, don't be discouraged. Now you're older, you can choose your teacher. Working with a patient and experienced instructor will make all the difference. You will sail to the head of the class. A pushy person who feels entitled to make demands will be put in their place. You're tired of being at the beck and call of this pest. Tell them what you think of their behaviour in no uncertain terms.

Worrying about money does more harm than good. If you want to cultivate prosperity, you should take stock of all your blessings. Cultivate an attitude of gratitude for everything from a full stomach to a roof over your head to a loving family. Trying to stir up trouble in an organisation will have unfortunate consequences. Although you dislike all the formal rules, they have been implemented for good reasons. Stop complaining about the constraints. If they were removed, the atmosphere would become disrespectful and unpleasant.

The limitations that were imposed on you when you were younger now begin to work to your advantage. You know how to handle adversity. When you encounter obstacles, you push through them instead of walking away. Best of all, you take great pleasure in freedom. Getting along with a prominent or powerful personality is challenging. You dislike their patronising attitude. What you mistake for condescension is good manners. Your superior is trying to be polite. Give credit where it is due and meet them in the middle.

Restless energy is causing problems with relationships. Your nearest and dearest want your presence. When you constantly are travelling or doing business, they feel rejected. Make a greater effort to spend quality time together. Turn off your mobile and focus on them. If you're lonely, reach out to a sympathetic friend. You tend to spend long periods alone, causing you to fall from people's radar. It may take a few calls to get back into their social rotation again, so be patient.

Conflicts over shared resources make you tense. You're tired of appealing to a relative's better side. They aren't listening to reason and will continue demanding more than their fair share. If this matter is going to be decided equitably, you must get legal representation. Realising a goal is taking longer than expected. Stop pushing so hard. Distract yourself with pleasant activities while the details are resolved. The moment you relax, the easier you will attain your desire. It's an unwritten law of the Universe.
