Don't bite off more than you can chew, especially where work is concerned. You're not as focused as you normally are, which means it takes twice as long to perform the simplest tasks. On the plus side, you're really good at creating harmony on the home front. If you sense that a housemate or family member needs some tender loving care, relieve them of difficult chores or pamper them with a delicious meal.

You're not getting too much cooperation from outside sources, which is really frustrating. At times, it feels as though the weight of the world has been put on your shoulders. You're even beginning to wonder if a romantic partner has lost interest in your sex life. Having a serious talk can clear up all the confusion. Part of the problem is you're so reliable others think you don't need their help.

Letting your career eat into your private life is a very bad idea. You may be surprised to learn how much your loved ones depend on you for comfort and support. Spending all of your time at work will deprive them of your company. Resist the urge to get into a power struggle with a business or romantic partner, as you will probably lose this battle. Honour their request to put more money into savings.

You're making great strides towards expanding your horizons and fulfilling your potential. Travel and study will attract great fortune, especially with regard to your professional prospects. Take care to obey a medical expert's instructions. You can't afford to play around with your health right now. Beware of making promises you can't keep. If you've over committed to a project, hire some expert help, even if it means cutting into your own profit margin.

There is such a thing as being too generous with your time, money, and resources. Harden your heart to sob stories that are designed to part you from your wealth. If you really want to help people who are less fortunate than you, teach them valuable skills. Showing others to become more self-sufficient is the best gift you can give. Children or lovers may accuse you of being selfish, but don't listen to these manipulations.

You're giving a romantic or business partner more credit than they deserve. Although it will pain you to do so, you need to check up on their work. You'll notice quite a few details have slipped through the cracks. Naturally, your distrust will cause some strife at home. Resist the urge to issue blame or accusations. Instead, remind your associate of your mutual goals. It's important that you both keep the big picture in mind.

You could be shouted down by a pushy person who is threatened by your social graces. Instead of getting drawn into a heated argument, make a strategic retreat. Authority figures will admire your finesse in dealing with this awkward situation. Don't let misplaced sympathy prompt you to let a shady character into your private circle. This person will be more trouble than they're worth. Leave them to their own devices.

Financial limitations could prevent you from wining and dining the object of your desire. Don't let this deter you from paying tribute to this special person. A handmade gift can be more impressive as a flashy bauble. Anybody can run out to the store and purchase something expensive with a credit card. Very few people are willing to pour their blood, sweat, and tears into a creative project. Set yourself apart from the crowd.

You expect to put in a minimum effort and get away with it. Your problem is that it's easy for you to do a good job with very little effort. Unfortunately, bosses have got wind of this tendency and are ready to punish you for it. Surprise everybody by putting forth the best performance you possibly can. If this means staying extra hours or taking on added responsibilities, so be it.

Your kindness and consideration towards a partner is greatly appreciated. It's good to know you can provide a loved one with stability when their world seems to be falling apart. Don't let financial setbacks or sudden surprises deter you from meeting your mutual goals. Someone you trusted and respected could fall back on a promise. Fortunately, you're more than capable of getting the job done in record time. Turn a deaf ear to self-doubt.

You're more patient, efficient, and organised than usual, allowing you to make great strides at work. Colleagues have come to expect an impulsive approach from you. This is your big chance to astonish them with your studied efforts and attention to detail. Instead of proposing brilliant ideas, you'll be providing practical forms of assistance. Take this opportunity to review a retirement or savings account. It may not be performing as well as you'd like.

A romantic partner has been letting you get away with murder, which makes you feel guilty. It's time to assume your fair share of the responsibility. Finding a better paying job or developing your creative talents are things you can do to take the pressure off of your mate. In the event you aren't in a relationship, it may be because you put too many demands on love interests. Adopt a more relaxed attitude.
