Getting to the root of a child or lover's behaviour will be easier than you think today. It's simply a matter of getting into their mindset. Consider how the two of you have disagreed in the past. How have their attitudes shaped the way they perceive certain events? Once you ask these questions, it will be much easier to interpret their actions. If you're looking for romance, head for a foreign movie or exotic restaurant.

You could have a meeting of the minds with a glamorous woman. This lady probably shares your love of home and family, and may have good advice regarding the way you organise your household.

You can be confident this woman will move mountains to find an abode to meet your needs.

You've always been exceptionally bright, but your intelligence will be razor sharp today. This is a great day to study for an exam, sign up for a class, or solve a knotty problem. You're especially adept at finding the right people to assist you with projects. Seek a partner who prefers dealing with the big picture, while you attend to the little details. If you're in a relationship, take this opportunity to discuss your future together.

As crazy as it seems, you can negotiate a higher price for your services today. The fact is, your employer is in a tight position. If you don't perform certain tasks, the whole operation will fall apart. Take this opportunity to ask for a pay raise. If you're seeking employment, this is a great time to apply for jobs. Don't hesitate to ask for the higher end of the pay scale.

Normally, you attract admirers through sheer charisma. Today, however, your sexiest quality is your perceptive brain. Don't hesitate to offer an opinion on movies, child rearing, fashion, or any of the many other subjects that fascinate you. Not only will you find a willing audience, but you'll lure several people into your web of intrigue. If you're already in a relationship, seize this chance to plan an exotic escape with your amour.

Normally, you prefer to deal with facts and figures. Today, however, you have a delicious opportunity to tap the rich mine of your subconscious. Seemingly absurd ideas or turns of phrase can serve as the basis of a brilliant invention or creative project. It can be especially effective to think back on your childhood. What were your favourite toys, foods and activities? Such things can trigger powerful memories that will inspire you in all sorts of crazy ways.

You work much better as a member of a team today. Resist the urge to pair up with a single partner, as this could limit your creativity. A round table discussion will help you see the limitless possibilities concerning a neighbourhood project. If you've been unhappy with your child's school, discuss alternative ways of learning with parents in your area. You may be delighted by the ingenious solutions suggested.

Speaking before the public has never appealed to you, but it could today. That's because you see an exciting opportunity to make money, provided you can get public support. By preparing a short but powerful speech, you can get all the support you need for this plan. In the event you're overdue for a raise, this is a good time to approach your boss. Be prepared to back up your request with facts and figures regarding your contributions.

The prospect of broadening your horizons always excites you, and that's especially true now. You may be given an opportunity to take a long distance trip or enrol in a programme of serious study. And while you probably have a lot on your plate right now, you simply can't afford to forgo such a chance. Relinquish some of your duties to other people, even if it means taking a pay cut or losing your place in line for a promotion.

Delving into a deep mystery affords plenty of excitement and a few surprises, too. Prepare to have your assumptions challenged when you learn the truth of a person's childhood. If you're single, this is a good time to reach out to a love interest. An intense conversation will create a feeling of intimacy between you. Already have a lover? Then confess something you've always been afraid to reveal. You'll receive a compassionate response.

If you're unsure of which direction to take, have a trusted friend make the decision for you. This is a scary prospect for an independent soul like you, but it will be a good exercise in faith. You may not realise this, but friends can sometimes anticipate your needs better than you can. If you're looking for love, let someone in your social circle set you up on a blind date.

Being organised is half the battle when it comes to winning an authority figure's approval. Before you get to work, make a list of everything you need to do. This will help you set your priorities. If somebody asks why a certain job has fallen through the cracks, you can point to your list of duties. People will then see how many responsibilities have been heaped on your plate, and that you've been handling them with admirable ease.
