The best way to get things done is to flatter an authority figure. By appealing to their vanity, you can have a deadline extended, paperwork dispatched, or money granted. Resist the urge to get heavy handed with someone who is obviously out of their depth. Although you are smarter, they have all the power. Keeping your temper under control isn't easy. A discussion about religion or politics could get ugly. Stick to more innocent topics, like the weather, books and movies.

Your romantic life is looking up. If you're in a relationship, your amour could give you a fabulous present. Going on holiday is also favoured. Going to a beautiful mountain resort will rekindle your mutual passion. If you are single, you could meet someone special at a garden or park. Take note of somebody with a dry sense of humour. The two of you could make a love connection. Don't try to impress a person with a lavish display of wealth.

You could receive a generous insurance settlement, tax refund, or alimony payment. Spend this money on something wildly luxurious. You're long overdue for a treat. Depriving yourself of the finer things will only make you resentful. A relative may disagree with the way you handle your finances. It's possible they feel threatened by someone who appears to have lots of influence over your life. A power struggle could erupt if you don't set firm boundaries.

There's never been a better time to get married or engaged. Love is in the air, and your partner is poised to do anything you want. If you're in a committed relationship, you could get some great news from your partner. He or she may get a raise or inheritance that allows you to afford a luxurious holiday. Haven't met your special someone? Be sure to attend a party or social gathering. You could meet an intelligent sophisticate who has a way with words.

Even though it is Sunday, you still have a marvellous opportunity to find employment. Seek opportunities related to fashion, music, or entertainment, and don't be afraid to ask for more money than you are initially offered. If you've been longing to buy some clothes, this would be a good day to go shopping, as you'll find some flattering items at good prices. Resist the urge to spoil a youngster with expensive presents.

If you've ever wanted children this would be a good time to try for one. You're especially alluring and will have no trouble luring your partner into bed. Adoption is also favoured; any paperwork you submit now will go through smoothly. It's hard not to get angry at a wilful relative who refuses to listen to reason. Venting your frustrations on this person could backfire badly. Find a healthier outlet for your feelings. Jogging, contact sports and healthy exercise can help you let off steam.

Home life is especially rewarding today. This is a wonderful time to host a family party or cook a large meal with your nearest and dearest. If you've been looking for a home, you could find a big, beautiful one which is quite affordable. The only snag is this place may be in a dodgy neighbourhood. The investment will be worth it, particularly if you install a security system. These days, it takes one brave buyer to turn a whole neighbourhood around.

Taking a test or getting a certificate will be easier than you think. You soak up information like a sponge, and your power of recall is excellent. Taking a short trip to see a loved one or close friend is also favoured. The two of you will have lots of fun catching up. A pushy friend may ask you for a donation, loan or contribution. Be ready to refuse their request. Money and friendship don't mix. Keep your hard earned cash in the bank, where it belongs.

If you have a little more money than usual, this would be a good time to indulge your material desires. Normally, you don't go in for status symbols, but a certain gadget has been playing on your mind. A flat screen TV, fancy mobile, or hand held communication device could give you lots of pleasure. Don't make the mistake of challenging an authority figure. The more graciously you accept defeat, the more apt they will be to change their ruling.

You're starting to see the results of a self improvement programme so give yourself a reward; you've earned it! If you've lost weight, purchase some attractive clothes. Have you finished writing a paper? Treat yourself to a book buying spree. Wrapped up a work project? Schedule a relaxing break abroad. Stop telling yourself you need to keep your nose to the grindstone. If you work hard, you deserve to play hard or you'll run the risk of burnout. Be gentle with yourself.

Take this opportunity to enjoy some private time. Turn off your mobile and head for the park if it's nice. If the weather is nasty, curl up with a good book. You'll feel so much better when you block out distractions. A powerful organisation could try to interfere with a private matter. Refuse to give this group access to your personal information. If the leader resorts to emotional blackmail, you need to entirely break away from this group.

You'll get by with a little help from your friends today. Be willing to go on a blind date. You may be amazed at how well the evening goes. If there's anyone who knows what you need to be happy, it's your best friend. If you're already in a relationship, you may want to convince your amour to join a professional organisation. This group could assist your partner in getting training, funding or clients. There is definitely strength in numbers.
