Sparks fly between you and someone who seems to be your opposite in every way. At first you will enjoy the conflict and clashes. Debating various subjects makes you feel vibrant and interested. Later you will start to tire of the discord but now it has begun, it can feel as if there is nothing you can do to break this cycle.

A cheerful friend's enthusiasm will inspire you to want to try something different. In their company you will find it easier to be spontaneous. If you hesitate before grabbing a great opportunity, they will be happy to make some decisions for you. It's been a while since you've had this much fun.

When you are with people who refuse to listen, it will help to keep the peace by biting your lips. Group projects will run smoothly and efficiently if you can find a way to work together as a team. Be careful when spending cash or it would be hard to explain a foolish buy to a partner who is trying to economise.

Be on your guard for hidden rivals if you are in a leadership role or superior position. Only let those you trust in on what you are planning. The more secretive you are, the easier it will be to outfox your competitors. Be wary when talking to someone who looks like they are saying one thing but thinking another.

Exciting possibilities will distract you from work and other responsibilities but if you fail to deliver on promises, problems will ensue. The chance to begin a new hobby will excite you but this is not going to be cheap. Will you want to continue once the novelty wears off?

Wear something special to a social event. You may not be looking forward to mixing in a crowd but you will feel more sociable if you know you are looking your best. Showing your face at a gathering will be worth the effort when you find yourself talking to someone who can put some useful tips your way.

Some odd situations will occur. There are some who will act as if they were expecting this to happen but it will have come as a complete surprise to you. This makes you wonder whether you missed something somewhere along the line. A conversation this evening will provide you with some answers.

Protect your own interests. Someone is not as skilled or as experienced as they have been making themselves out to be. They would like to see you fail because this will make them feel better about themselves. Your time would be profitably spent by taking steps to guard yourself against such people.

You might not plan everything down to the last detail as some people do. You may not appear to have any definite plans of action. Even so, you know what you are aiming for and when you are determined, you will achieve your goals. Your approach will be hard for some people to understand.

Take any chance that is offered to resolve recent arguments. If you haven't been getting on well with a partner, close friend or housemate, you will notice the tension between you starting to ease. Neither of you wants disharmony to linger. A shared interest in music, politics or art will bring you closer together.

You might sometimes wonder why things keep going wrong. Jobs are left half-finished when other things get in the way and workmates aren't as cooperative as you would expect them to be. Housemates keep moving your possessions. All you want is to get a job you have been intending to do for ages, over with and out of the way.

You can sense an older relative or someone you care for is feeling down. They could probably do with a holiday. If you know they can't afford this you might come up with an alternative idea. Visiting a park, seaside town or beautiful garden will lift their spirits.
