A team effort is all important in professional matters today. There are some jobs you need to get finished by this evening. If you're uncertain about anything, delaying decisions will only cause further problems. Be decisive and assertive or it might take weeks before you get back on the right track. A problem may need everyone's immediate and combined attention. Make sure it gets just that.

A slight gamble recently made pays off and this provides you with a ray of hope for the future. Hold on to this as over the next few weeks there might seem to be as many downs as ups. During the latter half of the month you need to avoid excess worrying. Keep reminding yourself of how good you feel today. For now, make the most of the chance to promote social and romantic objectives.

Duties in connection with a working partnership take priority. Honesty and loyalty are among the good qualities of those you're dealing with today. You shouldn't hold back from showing your appreciation. Remember who you can trust when, over the weeks ahead, there may be problems with people who are devious and unreliable. This therefore is a good day to cultivate relationships with those who matter.

A new study or training course should be intellectually stimulating. Even so this may mean having to juggle your schedule over the weeks ahead to make room for new commitments. Unexpected expenses may arise in connection with travel plans. If you want to get away at the moment but just can't seem to manage it, work on your meditation skills: these can transport you anywhere!

There's some bright news winging its way in your direction and this has something to do with money or your career. Perhaps both! If there are choices to be made, make your decision before the end of the day. If you have to disappoint someone, don't put off telling them what you have to say but say it with as much tact and kindness as possible. You might have to spend some money on your home.

Your partner will be relieved with your response to a question they put to you today. You might agree to make some changes in the way you handle your shared monetary or other concerns. This won't be easy but you're prepared for the likely problems which may result until you get these issues settled and agreed on. Because everything is still quite tentative you must take care at all times not to say the wrong thing.

Happily you are able to see a bright side to almost everything that occurs today. This might have something to do with pleasing developments in a working relationship. A recent disagreement is cleared and you get the chance to make friends with the offender. Having them on your side in the future could be useful when you might soon find yourself up against some stubborn people and impeding regulations.

Someone seems overly grateful for your guiding words. If you didn't realise how much your help means to them, you will understand this, now. With everyone so amenable, this would be as good a time as any to sort out any problems you've been trying to avoid. A male authority figure will give a valuable second opinion even though it may take a bit of persuading to get him to give his views!

You could come up with some outstanding ideas to improve your home surroundings. Whether you're out shopping or ordering on the internet, there's a temptation to spend more than you originally intended. This may not seem too much of a problem now but it could leave you in a far less secure position in the future. It might prove wise to save your money a wee while longer until you're absolutely sure you can afford it.

You're independent and conscientious in most matters, not wanting to rely on anyone for anything if at all possible. For the moment, other people taking an interest in what you are doing won't drastically hinder your progress. Even so, over the days ahead, they could become more meddlesome and intrusive. You won't want to be sidetracked by less important issues. For that reason, aim to be autonomous.

If important arrangements are ahead of you, you might not be as prepared as you think. Even if you don't feel it's worth the effort, I suggest you check everything over once more. A lot of your success today will depend on the effort you are willing to put in, behind the scenes. You aren't afraid of hard work but you could fall prey to a lazy mood. Could it be a crazy fad diet that has led to this decreased vitality?

You possess the courage and nerve to handle all situations that crop up today, even the unpredictable ones. In fact, you are more liable to just get on with it when pushed to make instant decisions. If you're single, get involved in a team effort and you stand a good chance of meeting someone wonderful. A friend will give you ideas on how to progress your ambitions. These need further thought as not all of them are feasible.
