Your main aim now is to get personal affairs that have been neglected for too long now, back in order. You will enjoy more scope to improve whatever needs improving in your private life as friends and even those who are close to you start giving you the space needed to develop your individuality. There's still some frustration if you're trying to implement new procedures. Persevere and you will turn a difficulty into a triumph.

Let yourself be persuaded if someone is trying to suggest ways to make life easier in the future. Their ideas could make for improvements in your family life and or social world. Even if you have to turn plans already made on their head, the subsequent upheaval will be worth it. This does not only mean greater success in the long run but it may also save you time and money in the process.

You're up against a brick wall in your efforts to get ahead in a certain direction. All the signals are telling you to turn around and retrace your footsteps. Go back the way you came and you will see where you've been going wrong. If you've had a habit lately of volunteering for anything and everything that comes along you need to be stern with yourself now. You can't focus any real effort into any one thing if you take on too much.

The day begins with the calm before the storm; there's an increasing turbulent mood as the hours go by. Having to travel from one place to another might waste you a lot of time when traffic is heavy and every bad driver there is seems to be on the roads today. As the day gets increasingly chaotic you might want to take advantage of a friend's willingness to do you a favour or two.

You feel confident once you put your mind to it there is little you won't succeed at today. On the down side, you're restless, impulsive and over confidence could make you accident prone. Promise yourself you won't do anything stupid or unsafe today. An early night might suit you better than any social plans you might have had. What seemed like a good idea at the time could lead to someone having to say they're sorry!

Not everyone sees things the same way. You will realise this today when you hear a number of versions of the same event. If you don't know what to believe, keep an open mind. Relationship problems could be as a result of you feeling your needs are more pressing than a partner's. If you're half of a couple, remember you're still individuals along different paths. It is time now to come to terms with your different needs.

Balance is the key to good health and happy relationships. Harmony and synchronisation are key words descriptive of your attitude to your professional and social dealings now. Single? A casual relationship could turn into something special amazingly quickly. Joint commitments aren't something to be undertaken lightly. To maintain the equilibrium, refuse to allow the thrill of the moment to impede your better judgement.

Speak from the heart if you want to make an impression on someone who matters. Your persuasive powers often work wonders but someone you know intimately, won't be fooled by charm alone, today. They're looking for honesty and sincerity as well as enchantment before they fall for your tactics! Be clear and definite in expressing your emotional and sexual needs. It's not a day to imagine others can read your mind!

There's a lack of direction to today's events but you aren't stationary. You may not know where you're going but you do know you're on your way! You would of course feel happier if you were spending all your time doing something useful. Distractions prevent this from happening. Jobs cropping up as part of a regular routine are likely to slow you down but progress will be slow and sure.

Branching out into new areas or expanding your connections could bring more success than you'd imagine. If your work involves research, teaching or writing you could be offered a freelance opportunity you can't possibly turn down. New possibilities absorb your attention. A willingness to experiment pays off handsomely and adds a touch of anticipation in your dealings with other people.

Good things are happening to you now; this may cause you to take an idealistic perspective. There are some delightful twists, turns and surprises cropping up now. Money is going out fractionally faster than it is coming in but you aren't letting this bother you at the moment. Even so you should start thinking of the future as you may have to try to motivate yourself to earn more!

You would like more say in a combined effort although a male associate seems intent on dominating the proceedings. Pooling resources, whether this involves, cash, effort or skills will bring better results than going it alone. All the same this is no reason to allow others to take over completely. Make today a time when you stop settling for second best and start going out for your personal aims.
