Aries:

Be honest about your shortcomings. The sooner you ask for help, the easier it will be to overcome an obstacle. You may require basic training, a hands on tutorial or an official certificate. Admitting your ignorance will make others admire you. Anyone can profess expertise. It takes someone with real courage to expose their vulnerability. The skills you acquire will enhance your earning potential. Anyone who pokes fun at your lack of knowledge is projecting their own insecurities onto you.

Try not to put too much emphasis on material goods. You can be happy without a lot of expensive status symbols. Just because your friends spend money on lavish items doesn't mean you have to keep apace. So many people are deep in debt and leave in fear of collection agencies. You do not want to join their ranks. Fortunately, you're very resourceful and know how to shop for values. An occasional indulgence is fine, but for the most part you should confine purchases to practical items.

Career prospects are slim. It's hard to find the necessary opportunities to get ahead. Dwelling on this scarcity will only make you miserable.

There's more to you than your job title. Exercising your imagination will offer welcome relief from an oppressive situation. You have more options than you realise. Look for them.

Work will be unpleasant. Warring colleagues make it impossible to concentrate. Until this power struggle is resolved, everyone will be walking on eggshells.
