Unforeseen complications upset the weekend causing worry and anxiety. News or events may have an unsettling effect concerning a personal interest or business matter. What you mustn’t do is make a decision on one thing you read, hear or see; one swallow doesn’t make a summer. Delve into it on Monday.

It is hard to keep on top of things when circumstances beyond your control seem to be the deciding factor in personal and financial affairs. You must bring expectations down to a more realistic level as you re-evaluate your situation to see where and how a major life transformation can be made.

Drastic changes for which you have made no plans or provision takes the control out of your hands as fate steps in. This impels you to the other extreme of refusing to budge and standing your ground, but if you do you’ll range even more powerful forces against you; you have no choice but to go with the flow.

It is too late to reach for the brake when unforeseen changes taking place in your personal life are overwhelming. They are irrevocable so there is no stopping them now they have begun. Health problems could result in a lack of energy but no matter how down you feel, the show must go on.

There is little you can do but go along with the will of the majority even if your ideas are outvoted. You aren’t the one pulling the strings this weekend and won’t be given the chance to exercise your free-will. Remember, however, that things can change, so don’t give up, just bide your time.

Work and health reach a very important crossroads. If a confrontation with authority or the law has led to this state of affairs, you must now accept the consequences or be prepared to grovel. You cannot beat the system no matter how hard you try, to do so would be totally self-destructive.

You are thrown into the deep end as destiny plays its tricks. Independence will be forced upon you whether you like it or not. It’s a case of sink or swim and you must find the confidence to chart your own course. Your chance has arisen to prove to yourself and others what you really can do.

Personal prejudice could interfere with your judgement on business or financial matters. Indulging your narrow-mindedness seems rather sad if this results in the loss of money or opportunity. Be more open, fair and just or you’ll end up shooting yourself in the foot and harming your prospects.

Your position or status is about to be challenged, threatened or undermined. You are unprepared to deal with this but face it you must, if you want to hold on to what you have got. You are about to be held to account for something you did wrong or didn’t abide by in the past: it’s face the music time.

Hostile trends create a bottle-neck slowing your life progress down to a minimum. Too much pressure has built up too suddenly and someone or something will snap under the strain. You must look further afield to find a lasting solution and stop wasting time searching for reasons or excuses.

You want to have more control or the final say in joint undertakings. Someone has been vindictive or resentful and the resulting verbal warfare threatens to escalate into an ugly and protracted legal battle. Heed the signals and try to resolve matters in a less expensive and more diplomatic way.

A close relationship enters a fundamentally turbulent time which affects you both psychologically. You may have reached the end of the road and what was good for you both in the past may not have a future. You must equally decide what is worth holding onto or letting go of before it’s too late.
