Your knowledge is in great demand today, but take care not to get too egotistical. Keeping abreast with emerging technologies and new concepts is the best way to maintain your intellectual superiority. Do your best to help others who are struggling with difficult concepts. By making yourself useful, you'll win a loyal following that can help you achieve great heights. It's time to build a network of support.

Getting the respect and approval of your superiors is your first priority today. Take care not to squander your precious resources. By proving that you can stretch your money in creative and enterprising ways, your reputation will soar. You're feeling especially sensual right now, and may choose to spend the evening with someone who caters to your every whim. Let yourself be pampered.

If you're seeking companionship, you need to let go of some old fears. Relationships that have not worked in the past shouldn't prevent you from forging new alliances. Just take care not to get involved with the same sort of person who has disappointed you in the past. Somebody with an exotic background may greatly appeal to you. Take this opportunity to compare and contrast your upbringings. It's a good ice-breaker.

Attending to your own needs is paramount, especially if you feel burnt out. Right now, a whole variety of tasks demand your attention. Still, this doesn't mean you have to sacrifice your own well-being for the sake of these chores. Put your duties on hold, even if others are relying on you. The fact that you've been too accommodating in the past has led to this problem. Break the cycle.

A desire for romance could lead you to express yourself in creative ways. Friends may be surprised by these tender expressions, and urge you to return to your 'normal self.' What they don't realise is that you are actually a very sentimental person. By continuing to be everybody's best pal, you will fail to attract the admirers you seek. Go ahead and create an air of mystery about you. Summon your considerable allure.

Staying close to home and family gives you a sense of profound inner peace. Lately, work responsibilities have been wearing away at your reserves. You need to surround yourself with folks who appreciate you for who you are, not what you can do. It's especially rewarding to prepare nourishing, home-cooked meals. You've probably been loading up on junk food lately, which can deplete your enthusiasm. Eat healthy and fresh!

An inquisitive mind could lead you down some unusual paths today. If you think you know your neighbourhood, take another look around. You could encounter some interesting people and places that you've never seen before. Don't be intimidated by somebody who holds an advanced degree. While their accomplishments are impressive, their views may be outmoded. Your visionary attitude is far more attractive.

Achieving a stable foundation is essential right now; you don't want to repeat a friend's mistake. Whether this means creating a retirement plan for yourself or learning more about investment strategies is up to you. Some serious financial responsibilities could make you feel as though you'll never attain wealth. This is the wrong attitude. Focus on what you have, and how you can make it expand.

You're quite moody today, which puts a strain on intimate relationships. One minute you're affectionate, and the next you are as cold as ice. Instead of putting your partner through a series of tests, explain why you are feeling so insecure. This could lead to a conversation that puts your fears into the proper perspective. It's possible that a pessimistic attitude has been driving a wedge between you.

An overactive imagination could cause you to take an exaggerated view of a mundane situation. Taking a colleague's insensitive remarks to heart could spoil an otherwise lovely day. Focus instead on spiritual pursuits that bring you satisfaction. Doing some volunteer work helps you realise just how lucky you really are. If you're not terribly motivated, you can always take a slow stroll through the park and enjoy the beauties of nature.

You're in a social mood right now, but a loved one may resent the time you spend with friends. It may be time to establish some basic ground rules for your relationship. You're too independent to spend every spare moment with one person. Perhaps the reason your beloved feels so insecure is that you are so attractive to others. Take the time to reassure your partner that your love and loyalty belongs to them.

Public opinion means a lot to you right now, and you will go out of your way to bolster your reputation. Unfortunately, duties at home may prevent you from meeting all of your career demands. Instead of letting your resentment build, have a frank talk with the folks who require your time and assistance. Working out a compromise will help you meet your goals without feeling cheated. Don't be a martyr.
