Although you're a conscientious worker, a miscommunication could result in a mistake. There's nobody to blame for this situation. Instead of pointing fingers, put your head down and work to correct the problem. At first, your colleagues may be angry with you. By next week, however, they'll see the error of their ways and ask for forgiveness. Don't let this difficult day spoil your weekend. There are fun days ahead with friends and family. Try not to overdo it at the gym.

It's hard for you to loosen up and have a good time. If you're not careful, people will accuse you of being a wet blanket. Resist the urge to chastise children for having fun while you're working. After all, it's not their fault you're up to your neck in chores. At some point, you need to put your assignments aside for the sake of relaxing. You've done enough this week; put your feet up and your hair down.

The pressure to carry on family tradition is starting to weigh on your shoulders. At this point, you need to break with the past and go your own way. Certain relatives will be aghast at your behaviour. Learn to live with their disapproval. Your personal happiness is at stake here. Trying to win favour with other people is nearly always an exercise in futility. It may be time to get outside help for an elderly family member. There's only so much you can do.

It may be difficult to retain important information now. Do yourself a favour and jot everything down on a pad of paper. A few jobs may still fall through the cracks, but at least you'll avoid a huge disaster. It's understandable that you're distracted. Your workload has rarely been this heavy. If you happen to miss an appointment, make an immediate and sincere apology. The person you stood up may take a while to forgive you, but it will happen in time.

Long term financial plans could fall through as you simply don't have the funds to set aside for the future. Although this situation will soon change, you need to adjust your focus. Give thanks for your daily bread and cut out unnecessary expenditures. Irresponsible friends could try to lure you to an expensive outing. Turn a deaf ear to their urgent pleas. The problem may be you haven't given your loved ones an accurate picture of your finances.

You're taking a disappointment with bad grace and nobody could blame you, really. Ups and downs regarding your career have kept you on shaky ground. Still, it's probably best to keep complaints to a minimum. You can always pour out your disappointment to a journal or diary. Ironically, exhibiting grace under fire could put you in the path of a good job. Someone who thinks you've been unfairly treated could become a firm friend or ally.

Although you want to work alone, it may not be an option. If you're forced to operate as part of a team, try not to sulk. The more pleasant you are to your colleagues, the faster the project will go. It may be necessary to bend to an expert's guidance. This person can be overbearing at times, but their advice is right on target. With a little patience, you can learn some valuable skills. Head out for drinks with friends after hours, even if you are tired.

A friend may not be as loyal as you'd like and at times like these, you seriously question this relationship. If it feels as though you're always giving and get nothing in return, you need to break things off. On the other hand, it's possible this lapse is an exception to the rule. If that's the case, you can afford to be more forgiving. Someone may not be able to pay back a loan. Don't rely on this money to pay off your own debts.

This isn't the best time to assume lots of responsibility because you're distracted by problems in your personal life. Be willing to hand power over to someone who as been eager to prove their worth. It's not necessary to feel threatened by this person. On the contrary, you will work better together once you demonstrate faith in their abilities. It may be time to scale back your hours at work or a close relationship could fall apart at the seams.

You have an inherent distrust of new ideas. Insisting on doing things the tried and true way could backfire, however. Be willing to adapt your method for the sake of the group. A tight deadline is looming ahead, and you may have no other choice but to cut corners. Colleagues can be irritable right now. Take care not to adopt an air of superiority, or a loud argument could erupt. You have to admit, nobody likes being ordered around, especially when time is short.

You may not have the money to cover your bills. If that's the case, it's better to contact your creditors than let the matter get worse. There's a chance you could have interest rates suspended while you pay off this debt. Your love life may be a bit dry, too. If you're going to enjoy intimacy, you've got to let down your defences. Stop acting like you're unfazed by some troubling obstacles. This is an opportunity to join forces, rather than play the loner.

Legal matters may not be going your way so be prepared for a disappointment. There is one solace to this situation; you won't be in limbo any longer. Pick up the pieces and move forward. If a relationship is showing signs of strain, you may want to take a small break from each other. Visiting a friend who lives nearby will lend welcome perspective. The two of you have been taking each other for granted these last few weeks.
