Teaming up with a partner will lighten your load. As a general rule, you're independent. You hate having to confer with someone before acting on an idea. In this case, you will benefit from a sounding board. A friend will stop you making a hasty decision that will undermine your financial security. If you're enjoying a romance, it may be time to make a serious commitment to your amour. The two of you balance each other's weaknesses and enhance your respective strengths.

Be discriminating about the choices you make, for you'll have to live with them for a long time. It's better to hold off on a major purchase than buy something of inferior quality. If there's a waiting list for a particular item or property, put your name down and hope for the best. A well connected colleague could put your application at the top of the pile, thereby reducing your wait time by a considerable amount. You'll get by with a little help from your friends.

You turn heads wherever you go and the attention is gratifying. You're tired of deferring to a demanding relative whose aches and pains command the lion's share of attention. Fortunately, you've caught the attention of a sophisticated artist who admires your wit and intellect. Together, you can create work of tremendous beauty. Don't be afraid to sprinkle a liberal dose of humour on this project. People want to be amused and diverted. Trust your instincts and give the public what it wants.

Devoting your attention to domestic concerns proves fulfilling. You enjoy shopping for artwork, furnishings and appliances. If you're thinking of moving, this would be a good time to do so. After a protracted search, you'll find the ideal abode for you and your family. A charming relative could poke their nose where it doesn't belong. Be ready to set a boundary, even at the risk of seeming stuffy. There are some matters you just aren't willing to discuss.

As far as you're concerned, life is just one big buffet table. You're eager to try a sample of every dish, rather committing yourself to a single offering. Friends will roll their eyes and call you fickle, but they're secretly jealous of your adventurous approach. Normally, you stick to what is comforting and familiar. Lately, these luxuries have lost their lustre. You're ready to try something new. Don't be surprised when you discover an affinity for a cuisine or nearby city that once seemed abhorrent.

Obey an impulse to treat yourself to some additional luxuries. Usually, you work to satisfy others. Now you have a chance to satisfy your own desires. Whether this means buying a beautiful piece of jewellery or splurging on a smartphone is immaterial. The important thing is to cater to your heart's desire. If you're overdue for a raise, ask for one. Your boss knows you are exceptionally talented and will go to extraordinary lengths to keep you in the fold.

After a long period of preparation, you're ready to put a plan into action. People will be startled to see you move with such determination, but that's because they don't realise how focused you can be. Normally, it takes you a long time to figure out what you want. Once you realise the best course of action, you'll pursue it with remarkable speed. Your energy and enthusiasm is infectious. If you need help, ask for it. Friends, relatives and neighbours will be happy to oblige.

You're eager for an escape. Lately, it feels like everyone has been tugging at your sleeve, demanding favours and help. Although you enjoy being of service, it does get tiresome. Heading off for some secluded location will allow you to recharge your batteries. Don't bother to leave a forwarding number. If an emergency arises while you're away, you can deal with it upon your return. These days, people put too much emphasis on staying in constant contact. It's really unnecessary.

Doing your own thing should be your first priority. You've always been a bit of a rebel and this instinct will be especially powerful now. Authority figures will despair of getting you to toe the line. Fortunately, it's impossible to be angry with you for very long. That's because you always manage to make people see the amusing side of things. As far as you're concerned, life is too short to get mired down in pointless rules and regulations.

You'll be put in charge of an important project. You're proud of this appointment. Very few people would be capable of handling the responsibilities involved with this project. You're the exception to the rule. Not only will you be able to set a reasonable timetable, but you'll also know which chores to assign to each member of the team. You'd never let personal feeling get in the way of doing a good job. You'll give the hardest jobs to the most talented people, regardless of pre-existing friendships.

You're ready to take a bold financial or romantic risk. As far as you're concerned, it's much better to embark on an unfamiliar path than carry out the same routine. If you've been longing to take a trip, do some research into plane tickets and hotel fares. You could discover a wonderful travel package that will allow you to visit an exotic country at very little expense. Fortunately, your employer will be willing to grant additional time off. Try to give as much advance notice as possible.

You're determined to fulfil your goals, even if it means putting yourself on a strict budget. Putting money aside for a trip or tuition will seem like a small sacrifice. It may be necessary to take a second job as a means to finance your plan. Opportunities related to property, art and the law are worth pursuing. The important thing is to find a pleasant place of employment that doesn't feel odious or oppressive. You're too sensitive to thrive in a nest of vipers.
