You will find the energy and stamina to fulfil all you wish to accomplish. You need to feel as if you are doing something useful and as you confront today's challenges and opportunities, you will know your efforts are making a difference. The reward or recognition coming to you from those in high places is ample evidence you are achieving your goals and moving in the right direction.

Friends and colleagues come to you for help; you may feel overwhelmed by their demands. A sensitive friend might offer you some valuable advice with regard to your generosity. You won't want to hear that some people are taking advantage of your kindness but the fact is, someone is using your friendship as a way to benefit themselves. This is an appropriate time to suggest they start paddling their own canoe!

You are starting to see positive results; don't let this make you overconfident about your skills. Continue to work on areas that are making progress but also remember your current run of luck may not last. There's a Chinese proverb: to know the road ahead, ask those who are coming back. This might alert you to the hurdles in front of you and suddenly you will realise how much you will need those whose feelings you aren't taking into account, today.

Your enthusiasm burns with a steady glow and you won't be put off by other people's negative reactions. Someone may complain about methods or routines that aren't working well. You might come up with a more practical arrangement. It might be best to leave it to a friend or colleague to sort out the details while you master-mind new procedures from a distance. The way to make real headway is to delegate so you can concentrate on those areas in which you shine.

Some changes in your lifestyle could be fairly dramatic in nature and a few ideas will take some getting used to. You hope you can make it easier for those who are having problems adapting to new circumstances and you will be told more than once that you have a heart of gold. Once you know you've done all you can for those around you, you will start focusing on yourself. This does not make life one sided because ultimately when others are happy, you are too!

Loved ones might be taken aback by your keenness to get on with certain projects, despite the expense. There are occasions when you prefer to think big and worry about the details later: this is one of them. Okay so some arrangements are costing you more than you would normally spend but you prefer not to think about it. You are enjoying all life has to offer and your vivacious charm will draw people towards you like a magnet.

Someone you are with is drawing attention to themselves and you feel uncomfortable to be standing alongside them. Today you will prefer to shun the limelight and get on with the job in hand in as quiet and peaceful a way as possible. The fact you are doing it very well proves you have the right ideas. Leave others to revel in all the attention and interest and you might also be leaving them behind as you move forward while they're standing still!

One way to put your philosophical beliefs into practice is to get involved with a charitable organisation. You may have to make personal sacrifices in order to fulfil new social obligations but this will not bother you in the least. Through helping others you are also strengthening your inner self as you draw on the more assertive and determined aspects of your personality. You aren't looking for applause but you will receive it and this could have lingering emotional after effects.

A work relationship takes on a more casual tone as you start sharing interests that are more personal than professional. You aren't keen on mixing business with pleasure. Wouldn't it be a shame to miss out on the excitement of sharing new experiences with someone you get on well with just because you work with them? While a spirit of harmony and communication prevails make the most of it. Don't question with who you should or shouldn't be associating with; let your instincts be your guide.

You know a few people who might benefit from the travel plans being suggested today. If you have matchmaking in mind, invite your single friends along! Bringing together people who could be good for each other will be most satisfying. If others are scheduling a future event, you will be sought out for your organisational abilities. Even if you have other things to do, it won't take a lot of effort to point others in the right direction.

Someone needs something you own but never use; gifting them with this item will win you their eternal gratitude. An expansive mood takes over and you won't be looking for thanks or appreciation for a deed that costs you nothing. You're just happy to pitch in wherever you're needed and to offer what you can to make life easier for those around you. Similarly your job position is more secure because of your helpfulness and the concern you are showing to others.

Be careful who you trust today and watch what you are saying. Confiding your innermost thoughts to a close friend or partner might be a mistake if it turns out they don't really understand you. Someone might give you the wrong impression and you could tell them things you will wish you hadn't mentioned. For this reason, hold back before spilling out your heart. You can't depend on others to give you the response you are looking for.
