Hours fly by and as the day will be extra busy; don't count on being in one place for long. It will suit your mood to flit from one place to another, meeting a variety of people on the way. You might feel like having friends over, this evening or you will accept a spontaneous invitation to pay someone a visit. Casual get togethers with those who wield power might give your career prospects a boost!

Adopt a fairly aggressive approach if you're involved in buying or selling. Even if it's not normally your style, decide on a set figure and don't be the one to back down. Also, do your homework or you'll kick yourself if you throw away your hard earned cash on something you could have got elsewhere for half the price. Be sensible about money matters and you could find yourself better off financially.

There seems to be no pleasing you today! You might anticipate a busier than usual social or business agenda. If you are working you will be surprised at how much is being expected of you. People don't want to know that you could do with a break. Anyway, there are exciting things happening on the work front and you would only feel piqued if you had been left out of them!

At work you will continue to do well if you use your imagination. You get the chance to demonstrate a special talent or ability and this helps avert a minor crisis behind the scenes. Because few people realise what is going on, you won't receive the praise you deserve for your effort. Even so those who do recognise the important part you have played in today's proceedings will mention it, when the time is right to do you a favour.

A friend's surprise request will make today special. This might involve visiting someone who lives far away or travelling overseas in the not too distant future. Closer to home, the day is not without its moments. Activities shared with partners and friends are favoured. If a housemate or loved one suggests living it up this evening, forget any less exciting matters and agree!

You might have to accept the fact someone you thought you knew inside out isn't the person you thought they were! A colleague might change their views on a situation where you thought you had their full backing. If someone you've always liked seems to be in a restless frame of mind, don't let this interfere too much with your relationship. Let them know you respect their right to change their views.

Lively discussion in the workplace adds excitement to your usual proceedings. As far as your career and long term matters are concerned you see the sense in making the most of new opportunities. Colleagues are full of news and views and someone might let you in on plans they have for the future. Listen carefully. Read between the lines and there could be an unspoken hope you will join them.

You feel more confident about the way a financial or legal matter is now proceeding. It is easier now to start thinking about the future as this looks a lot more secure than it has done for a while. In the past, a sense of caution has held you back just in case things didn't turn out as expected. Now you can reward yourself for your patience. The people you mix with later in the day are the types who appreciate the finer things in life.

If you are in a meaningful relationship, allow your partner to express their ideas. Even if you don't agree with everything they say, show an interesting in their views. Listening without interrupting makes them feel as if they are getting through to you! The more tact you show today the better it will be tomorrow and the day after, when you might want them to go along with your plans and suggestions!

If you're feeling under the weather, it might be best not to let others know it. A competitor could take advantage and will act sneakily while knowing you aren't as attentive as usual. Be careful when it comes to those you mix with both socially and professionally as someone could be trying to pick your brains or exploit you. A meeting with a male professional might not pass as smoothly as you expected.

Within your closest relationships any warm and friendly gestures shown to others will be gratefully received. You might think a loved one has been starved of affection the way they are acting. They will eagerly return any show of tenderness and thoughtfulness in full. You could probably do with some relaxation today and the unwinding process will be helped by a mellow and easy going evening.

A passing remark a colleague makes could be misunderstood and a tense situation develops. You might prefer to keep well out of the way of others on the work scene. At home, it will be an in-law who comes up with the best ideas if you need help or assistance. Don't hesitate to give them the full story as any secrets you share will go no further than the walls surrounding you.
