You're a lot more impatient than usual this Sunday. You want things to happen immediately but this is no bad thing. You are bent on making the most of every opportunity and you have bags of energy. Be sure to put this into anything that grabs your interest. What's more, you seem to have the uncanny ability to be in the right place at the right time. Your determination and tenacity will make things happen.

If you've been thinking about the future, today could bring you closer to the turning point you know is going to happen. The area to look for the fresh start you need is in higher education or travel. Making definite plans now will give you the incentive to break out of your regular routine. Your first step is to rid yourself of a burden that was starting to get you down. Realise that you are in charge of your life and your destiny.

If finances have been a problem, talking the issue over with loved ones will help. You feel a strong desire to provide for your family or to make a bigger contribution to the domestic budget. If you can't see a wage rise happening, another option would be to keep a tighter hold on the purse-strings. And, of course, an eagle-eye on expenditure. Also, promise yourself that over the next few weeks you won't spend on anything except essentials.

You need to be more decisive with a partner as you aren't going to get anywhere if you let them boss you around. Your needs and ideas have as much right to be heard as everyone else's. Put forward your views with confidence even if you are quivering inside. Although this might take some by surprise, you will ultimately come out the winner. Let others see how determined you can be when you want to be!

Expect a busy day in the company of cheery friends with possibly a sporting event or physical activity taking pride of place. Competitive sports will give you a lot of pleasure and a lot of pain in muscles and joints you never knew existed! Your partner or another loved-one might offer to massage all the aches away and this could lead to an unexpectedly romantic evening.

If you are clear about your needs and open about your feelings, a longstanding relationship is likely to be intensely revitalising. If single, it's a good day to promote your romantic objectives. You might meet someone who thinks the way you do and shares a similar outlook; this is bound to make for a promising relationship. You want to do more with your life now and you are prepared to work hard to reach your goals.

Those you live with may accuse you of being all talk and no action when you suggest some adventurous plans for the home. In which case, they are in for a big surprise. You will prove them wrong and improve your surroundings by making constructive use of your ideas and imagination. Venting your creative urges will also ease tension and give you a new sense of direction. Get your ideas fully developed and then act on them.

A community exercise might keep you occupied longer than anticipated. Which leaves you with less time to devote to an artistic endeavour you had wanted to get started on. This is a project which will bring out your natural skills and talents. There will be plenty of time to develop this over the weeks ahead. A 'quiet' informal get-together planned for the evening might seem like Trafalgar Square on New Year's Eve!

The squander-bug could bite a close friend but refuse to allow their foolishness to affect your own handling of cash. As it is, you have other ideas. It's an excellent day to launch a modest money-making plan as the chances of success are high. Keep your money-sights over the weeks ahead at a reasonable level and you will not go far wrong. A sudden burst of energy helps you clear neglected chores around the home out of the way.

You have the chance to change your life but you can't decide between taking a risk or opting for the safest route available. If satisfied with the status quo, your dilemma is that much more difficult, so why make changes that don't seem necessary? If however you feel even the slightest twinge of dissatisfaction or frustration, be ready to make a move to improve your lot. Your bravado will bring a new and invigorating phase of growth.

Your pre-occupation with private matters may cause you to forget plans already made with friends. Even if you suddenly remember at the last moment, you might deliberately choose to forget again. A tranquil day doing very little but relaxing would suit you fine. You need to unwind completely and charge your mental and physical batteries. Your colleagues can't expect you to be on the go all of the time.

Someone disappoints you by refusing to give you their support and you hadn't expected this to be an issue. Normally they're very obliging. Is it possible that they have come to realise how much you rely on them. They've let this sense of power they have over you, go to their head? You don't need the approval of others to move forward with your plans. Go ahead, without them and shock them into realising that you do have a mind of your own!
