The Moon enters your career house today, forcing you to take a long hard look at your life path. At what point are you going to stop letting other people's opinions affect your decisions? Trying to please friends and family is an exercise in futility. You'll find out whose affections are genuine once you start doing as you please.

If you have to put down what you're doing in order to show somebody the ropes; try not to be resentful. The more you give of yourself now, the higher your stature will rise. Gathering information from authority figures could be like pulling teeth, but your hard work and persistence will pay off. Don't take no for an answer.

Sexual hang-ups can be an indication of self hatred; what's the worst thing that could happen if you embrace your fantasies? You don't necessarily have to act on your impulses, but you do need to acknowledge that they exist. Otherwise, your frustration will start to manifest in your personal and public lives.

Your negative outlook is having a serious impact on a cherished relationship; why do you insist on looking at the dark side? Make it a practice to compliment or be tactile with your partner twice a day whilst cutting back on criticisms. Whether you realise it or not, your nit-picking is a serious form of psychological abuse.

It feels as if you've been plodding along the same old path for ages now; isn’t it time to alter your surroundings? Sometimes the fastest way to transform your life is to work from the outside in. Take a look at your home and office. Is there any wonder you're depressed? Breathe new life into your immediate environment with plants, colour and light.

Romantic opportunities abound, so be ready to take advantage of your good fortune -- otherwise, you could miss the boat entirely. Steer clear of aloof characters who appeal to the conqueror in you. You're far better off with someone who can express their emotions. Take a second look at a friend who has expressed interest in the past.

This is a day of endings, but the experience will be far less devastating if you keep your eyes firmly focused on the future. It's imperative to look upon these moments as unexpected gifts; what will your new situation allow that was previously impossible? Dust off those childhood dreams. It's never too late to realise your potential.

Eliminating waste from your life can be as simple as ending relationships that have been draining you of energy. The fastest way to free yourself from these social prisons is to say what's really on your mind. Honesty is the most powerful leech repellent on the market. Use it liberally whenever you see fit.

You are going to have to rein in your spending if you're going to enact the changes you've been contemplating. Doing without isn't the worst thing in the world, so long as you're following your dreams. Stop haunting yourself with images of deprivation; abundance will flow back into your life if you're true to your heart.

An authority figure may try to give you the brush off, but stand firm until you get the answer you need. Nobody is going to give you respect until you demand it; that's just the way the world works sometimes. Wear whatever makes you feel fabulous. This will give you the extra confidence you need to get pushy.

Dwelling on the past is getting you nowhere fast; it's time to forgive the people who have caused you pain and move forward. Until you're able to take this step, you'll be fated to re-enact the same mistakes over and over again. Aren't you tired of letting other people control your life? In which case take command of it yourself.

You're starting to grow apart from a long time pal; consider whether this loss is really as tragic as it seems. Growing and changing is a part of life; there's no point in forcing a friendship if you have nothing in common anymore. Wish them well and then move on to greener pastures. It's the healthy thing to do for you both.
