You want to push the boundaries, to break through barriers and to scale new heights.

Standing up for your beliefs can get you in trouble at work. Your superiors want everybody to stay focused on your responsibilities. You have no intention of ignoring outrageous abuses of power.

Correcting an imbalance of power will boost productivity and profits. Be willing to tell things as you see them. You may not realise it, but your words have tremendous weight.

Don't be afraid to let down your defences with someone who has approved their loyalty. Everybody knows you're able to take care of yourself. Just because you're self reliant doesn't mean you should turn away help. Letting your best friend, romantic or business partner take some burdens from you. This will give you an opportunity to catch your breath and enjoy life. There's more to life than an endless list of tasks. Relax and let some spontaneous energy flow into your life.

Your creative juices are flowing freely. This is a wonderful time to finish an art project you abandoned some time ago. When your courage starts to falter, ask your best friend or romantic partner for support. Knowing you have a built in support system gives you the courage to take bold risks.

You'll have an opportunity to expand your professional skills. Studying with a respected teacher will be a blow to your ego. It's important to put your assumptions aside for the sake of learning.

Being in control will become less important than stretching your boundaries and enjoying the pleasure of exciting new experiences.

Romance will find you, whether you are looking for it or not. People find your rebellious attitude irresistible. Someone with a velvet voice will try to win your heart.

It will be difficult to discourage your admirer, but eventually, you'll make your point. Are you already in a relationship? Run some household errands for your amour.

You're sensitive about money. Remember your bank balance is not a reflection of your personal worth. If you're struggling to make ends meet, it's time to expand your social network. Landing a lucrative job is often a matter of knowing the right people. Join a professional organisation and attend lots of conferences. When you see an influential executive at a party, go over and introduce yourself. This is no time to be a wallflower. Step into the spotlight and work your magic.
