Trust your intuition about a family matter. A relative who insists they are fine really needs help. Invite them out to lunch at a place where you can have a heart to heart talk. Your compassionate attitude will break down their defences. Don't let personal ambition complicate relationships at work. There's nothing wrong with wanting to advance, but you shouldn't do it at the expense of others. Avoid strong arming others to get what you want. Abusive behaviour will ultimately backfire.

Listen to a friend's spiritual guidance. If you feel bogged down by financial problems, take up a practice that helps you transcend material matters. This will change your outlook, allowing you to attract the abundance you deserve. Connecting with your higher power is enriching. Beware of hypocrisy. It's important to have the same standards for everyone's behaviour. Don't look the other way when an admired public figure is engaging in unethical behaviour. Backing a criminal will only damage your reputation.

Everyone at work is asking you for advice. They know you aren't obsessed with making a quick profit. Instead, you are intent on building long-term prosperity for the whole company. This means building morale by treating the staff with courtesy and respect. Serious problems with a partner's finances could arise. It's important to go over these accounts with a fine-toothed comb. You could spot errors that must be corrected. Don't expect a bank or employer to protect your interests.

Going on a spiritually enriching journey is strongly advised. You tend to put your needs aside for the sake of loved ones. It's time to fulfil your deepest desires. If that means spending your hard-earned money on a holiday, do it. You're tired of dealing with an overbearing partner. Instead of giving in to their demands, you should assert your own needs. Relationships are about give and take. Yours is imbalanced; work quickly to fix it or you'll drift apart.

An intimate relationship is a welcome diversion from the daily routine. Take this opportunity to sneak off to a private hideaway with your amour. Are you single? You'll meet someone special at a spiritual retreat. You'll feel an instant connection with a dreamy artist. An inability to get along with colleagues will compromise your success. Take a course to develop interpersonal skills. These lessons will serve you well in virtually every area of life. When something isn't working, you should be willing to change.

Unselfish love and understanding draws you closer to your best friend or romantic partner. Make a personal sacrifice for your favourite person. This gesture will help your loved one overcome a serious setback. They'd do the same if the situation were reversed. Don't let a romantic partner dominate you. If your needs aren't being met, speak up. You can bring a problem to your amour's attention without hurting their feelings. Adopting an experimental approach to physical affection will be fun.

Instead of doing things by the book, listen to your intuition at work. A special circumstance requires a sensitive approach. A customer, patient or client who can't access products in the traditional way deserves extra consideration. Go out of your way to help. You don't have all the information about a frustrating family situation. It's possible someone is hiding an addiction or financial problem. Be alert to clues as to what is really happening. Your intuition is right on target.

If you suspect someone has a crush on you, you're probably right. Getting involved with a kind, sensitive admirer will bring out the best in you. Do you have a partner? Take this opportunity to enjoy a romantic outing, like a candlelit dinner. Scheming isn't the best way to get ahead. You are blessed with impressive skills. It isn't necessary to manipulate people into getting love and money. Simply be who you are and don't apologise. Discerning people will give you a chance.

Communing with nature can be therapeutic. If you've been dwelling on angry or hurt feelings, it's time to sort through these issues. The simple act of walking through the woods or sitting near a pond can help the healing begin. Greed is not good. Rather than trying to grab all the work yourself, share it. Your generous attitude will promote good working relationships for years to come. When you need work, you'll be able to call on these contacts for help.

You soak up knowledge like a sponge. This is a great time to study for a test or practice a technique. Resist the temptation to go out with friends; dedicate yourself to work instead. Your hard work will pay off in surprising ways. Insisting on doing things your way will create resentment in your personal life. Instead of treating every encounter as a power struggle, try to find common ground. It is easier than you think. Everyone isn't out to get you.

Donating money to a humanitarian cause is strongly advised. When you devote your energy to making the world a better place, it becomes easier to realise your goals. That's because the Universe rewards those who dedicate their lives to helping others. Beware of letting down your guard with people you don't know very well. A secret enemy will take advantage of any privileged information that you share. If someone asks you nosy questions, give polite but noncommittal answers.

Creative inspiration is on the way. Develop a wonderful idea for a musical, visual arts or performance project. If this means putting mundane tasks aside, so be it. You can always run errands and do laundry later. Strike while the iron is hot. Extravagant spending will put an end to a friendship. Someone who owes you money seems to be living high on the hog. If they don't feel compelled to repay you, it's best to go your separate ways.
