If you are working, a job is not going as it should and arrangements already made are breaking down. You and a colleague or associate are out of step and no matter how carefully you plan joint activities, obstacles and difficulties get in the way. There may be some slight compensation, this evening, in the form of romance if you are single. Even so, there is something troubling you which you just can't seem to get out of your head!

You might feel a strong need to process your thoughts and feelings about family matters and recent domestic goings on. An older relative may offer a sympathetic ear and some kindly advice. To be comfortable with other people you need to be comfortable with yourself. This evening forget your troubles, relax and try not to take your uncertainty out on your loved ones or your friends.

There is a difference between caring for someone and worrying about someone; today you need to work out how you feel. Worrying about a loved one's health, lifestyle or relationships puts you in a troubled frame of mind and you need to express your concerns before you grow too anxious. Caring about someone without the worry is less exasperating and will not call for any instant action!

Once you have managed to crawl out of a difficult situation you will be determined never to make the same mistake again! It is one thing doing foolish things and making minor mistakes but another when you make a blunder which causes yourself and other people a lot of problems. Sometimes you might think it is not your day; it's because you need to face up to issues of the past in need of sorting out before you can go any further.

Someone's feelings are easily hurt and irreparable damage could be done to their egos if you don't think before you speak. If you are going to spend a few weeks together you need to go carefully at the start until you establish a way to cooperate and act as a team. A communication from a distant relative could relate to forthcoming family plans although ideas remain vague and are still tentative.

You are not caught in a trap you can't extricate yourself from, even if it sometimes feels that way. You're spending too long dwelling on some issues and in turning them constantly over in your mind, you make them out to be larger and more complex than they actually are. Some matters may be uncertain and you should not be too quick to make decisions. Try to get out of the office, get away from home, separate yourself from those whose views confuse you and spend some time alone!

By looking at your past experiences you might be aware of areas in which you could have done things differently. There is a way of changing patterns, beliefs and behaviours and you can do this by learning from the past. Others who have shared similar experiences might help you through this stage of self discovery and change. Potential new friends could be found through joining a self help group or by getting involved in a club or organisation in which like minded people get together.

A friend or colleague's dilemma is starting to affect you as you are drawn into their problems. Not being able to find a solution to their predicament may leave you with a feeling of frustration and helplessness. If you are typical of your sign, you hate to be confronted with circumstances over which you have no control and to the inexplicability of life. Even so there are some situations where you cannot have power and all you can do is help.

Check and double check proposals put to you today. Don't be afraid to let people know you're uncertain of their motives. Not everything will be as it seems and you need to be on your guard. Snags and problems connected with future travel plans should not worry you overmuch as they will be surmountable. Some people will be making mountains out of molehills and a hitch or hold up will not be as awesome as it first seemed.

If a partner seems to criticise your ideas or intentions, their disapproval should not be regarded as uncalled for. At first it might not be apparent but they only have your best interests in mind. Try to show them more consideration and even if you disagree with what they are saying, express tolerance for their knee jerk reaction to your proposals. The more understanding you are with them, the more chance you have of later persuading them around to your way of thinking!

You might feel as if everything connected with a partner or a joint matter is just too much trouble today. Plans seem disjointed and it will sometimes seem as if you and those who share your world are talking a different language. While the atmosphere is tense and formal, it might be better to get on with tasks which don't involve other people. For the time being, take a back seat even if it means giving someone else the upper hand.

An older friend or colleague's methods or systems might clash with yours. It is entirely possible this is because you represent the future and they are clinging to the past. It takes time for some people to adjust to new ways. If some changes are inevitable, it is up to you to give them a safe space within which to acclimatise to new circumstances without risking your relationship.
