Someone who usually keeps themselves to themselves will ask for some advice. You might be surprised that they have turned to you. They know you have the knowledge or skills that will help them tie up loose-ends of a project they want to finish before Christmas.

A youngster in the family will get themselves into a bit of bother. They will insist they know what they are doing and they don't need your help. Be ready for the time when, whether or not they ask for it, you need to step in and sort them out.

You won't hesitate to grab an opportunity before anyone else gets to hear of it. If you've been looking for a new place to live, you will want to act quickly on a tip given to you by a friend or neighbour. This could cause tension in the family when a housemate will feel they have not been kept up to date with circumstances as they happen.

You enjoy using your imagination and may want to make better use of a skill or talent in the job that you do. Discuss this with your boss and you might be surprised by their enthusiastic response. Routine jobs jog along happily now with no crisis or panic arising.

Happy and harmonious family relationships will have a positive effect on your emotional and psychological health. Keep the lines of communication open between your family and loving ties. If you can achieve a similar sense of harmony within the working environment, even better.

You've been looking at figures, summing things up in your mind and contemplating an extravagant holiday you're hoping to take early next year.
