A quest for truth could prompt you to explore different religions, philosophies, or political parties and while you'll find worthy ideas in every discipline you explore, you'll soon realise the most satisfying belief system draws on your own convictions, as well as those of esteemed thinkers and theologians. Beware of trying to impose your ideas on others. Finding contentment shouldn't involve strong arming innocent bystanders. Remember, this is your journey. Everybody has their own way of seeking truth.

You're coming face to face with your own limitations, which is quite frustrating. It may be necessary to get help if you're going to progress to the next level. Don't beat yourself up over this situation you've done all you can to advance your interests. The next step may require getting a powerful figure to speak on your behalf. It seems wrong access to authority depends on personal connections, but that's the sad truth today.

Learning how to be a good partner is a process of trial and error. Although you want to make things equitable, it may not be possible. Somebody has to take charge of plans if you're going to make progress. Those roles can change, depending on what sort of work is involved. For instance, you're quite gifted with jobs which require versatility and ingenuity. Perhaps your beloved can handle endeavours involving persistence and perseverance.

A lesson in humility comes as a powerful blow. Don't make any assumptions about people who approach you for help, or you could be publicly embarrassed. Someone who looks posh could be as poor as a church mouse, while a shabby customer might be richer than Midas. Furthermore, a colleague who doesn't have much education may possess skills that are invaluable to your organisation. If somebody says they can solve a problem, step aside and express your gratitude.

It's time to take your artistic talents seriously. Yes, the demands of work and family are important, but they shouldn't eclipse your love of the arts. Best of all, making more time for your favourite activities will make you a better employee, spouse, parent, and friend. Pessimistic onlookers will try to make you feel bad about these pursuits, but only because they're not brave enough to do what they love.

Creating emotional security is essential to your happiness. Start pulling away from people who undermine your confidence. It's also a good idea to steer clear of those who don't respect your time, ideas, or feelings. These people may try to appeal to your sense of family or company loyalty, but don't rise to the bait. The only ones who are worthy of entering your inner circle are those who appreciate your talents and care for your well being.

You're intensely curious, which could lead you down some unusual paths. Some people may wrinkle their noses at your newfound interests, but don't let it deter you. After all, there's no use in pretending to like kittens when you're really passionate about forensics. If you do a little digging on the Internet, you can probably find like minded friends. This is also a good time to pursue art, particularly if you were discouraged from doing so as a child.

Strong survival instincts prompt you to go to unusual lengths to stretch your resources. Selling your stuff via an auction site, starting a side business, or putting extra change into a savings account are among the possibilities and while your efforts won't impress the casual onlooker, they'll soon yield handsome profits. Even the smallest economies will make a huge difference to your financial health.

Getting formal training may not be your style; you'd rather figure things out on your own. This allows you to develop a captivating signature style. People won't believe you're self taught. The truth is it's easier for you to develop skills without somebody breathing down your neck. If you encounter any obstacles, don't worry. You'll find an innovative solution while doing some mundane task like laundry.

Dissolving barriers to your spirituality is vital. If you find yourself obsessed with money, sex, drink or drugs, you need to readjust your focus and centre your thoughts on what you really need and want from life. You have all you need to thrive and be successful at this very moment, it's all a matter of blocking out all those distractions that make you feel impoverished, weak or not up to the challenges life brings your way.

You hate being defined by your social circle. Just because you gravitate towards certain people doesn't mean you share all of their beliefs. What onlookers don't realise is your friends often look to you for guidance, admiring your ability to put an individual stamp on everything you do. A needy person could make you feel claustrophobic. It's up to you to put some healthy distance between you, even if it means being brusque. There is a downside to star power.

Becoming more disciplined is essential to exercising your personal power. Too often, you let the cards fall where they may, instead of taking control of golden opportunities. Follow up on job leads, stay late to finish projects, and get extra training to improve your skills. If you're uncomfortable with telling others what to do, you may want to learn how to do things differently. The best ventures all need strong authority figures to come to fruition.
