Contention within a close friendship is making you seriously wonder whether you know someone as well as you thought you did. It may be that you will need a short break from each other. Plans that looked secure as the year began may hit a few snags. Persevere.

A friend or colleague will ask you to finish a job for them. Their excuse is that they have more pressing things to do. It might seem to you as if they are exaggerating the situation but you could find out later that they really did have an emergency to deal with. So you would feel awful if you had left them in the lurch.

This is a great time to attend interviews, auditions and business meetings. Update your wardrobe and be ready to face the world with confidence, poise and professionalism. Whether you are applying to college or University or hoping to make changes in your career, it is up to you to make the effort.

A workmate or teammate is determined to master a skill even though they have a long way to go to become proficient at this. Whatever you do, don't comment if they are clearly content to muddle their way through as best as they can. Family plans will need revising when someone close receives an unexpected job offer.

Your ability to take the initiative when this is required will make a big difference in a group project. A friend or someone who is close to you is holding back from making a move. You know them and you also know this will be good for them which is why you will give them a gentle nudge in the right direction.

You can sense when friends genuinely need you. High levels of sensitivity make you aware of other people's needs and feelings and you won't object to having to put yourself out for family and friends who need your support. Your intuitive responses to others may even surprise you.

You've been giving a lot of thought into your work and family responsibilities. It may be necessary to change your priorities. Once you have decided what is most important in your life and you have discussed this with those who matter your relationships will improve. All good relationships will turn a corner and become more rewarding.

You had thought a friend or colleague would change their views once they were made aware of all the facts. Arguments continue when this stubborn person refuses to listen and insists on standing by what they say. Then annoyingly after a lot of debate and discussion they will suddenly deny they ever made certain claims.

You're restless, you want to have fun, you want some excitement and you can't sit still. This desire to be here, there and everywhere is so strong it can't be ignored. Don't be surprised when your thoughts start to roam towards far off interests, long-term plans and distant affairs.

If you are working with dangerous machinery or chemicals be sure to follow health and safety guidelines and take all safety precautions. Take your time with a difficult job. Encourage others to do the same. Work at a steady pace for none of you wants to overdo things.

Just as you thought you had sorted out a money or business matter, there will be more issues that need your attention. It will feel, at times, as if you are banging your head against a brick wall. With you not making as much progress as you had hoped, you're starting to worry about a looming deadline.

A friend or neighbour will mean it when they say how grateful they are for your recent kindness. A favour you did for them will be repaid in full even if you aren't expecting it. News of an unexpected addition to the family or changes in your domestic situation will bring elation and nervous excitement at the same time.
