This is one of the most romantic times of the entire year for you. Be sure to mark it with a special treat. Go on holiday or buy a beautiful trinket.

Don't worry about money as a financial settlement, dividend, or alimony payment could arrive just when you need it most. Use this fund to support you while you make some important changes to your lifestyle. Moving to a new neighbourhood, renting your own apartment, or taking up an artistic medium could prove fulfilling. A sensitive person like you sometimes needs to escape the concerns of daily life. It helps you to reconnect with your spiritual core.
