You may be asking an authority figure for more than they are prepared to give. Scale back your demands, especially if you want to maintain this relationship. Even if you don't, it's unwise to burn your bridges at this juncture. A lavish job could be yours, provided you are willing to make some sacrifices. You may have to take on some assignments that offend your dignity. This may be a good exercise for you. At some point, we all have to perform unpleasant tasks.

A secret romance is stirring up more trouble than its worth. Stop participating in this deception or you will be implicated in its fallout. Angry words could be exchanged between you and a know it all. You're tired of taking orders from them, particularly when you have more experience. It's time to express your ideas more forcefully. If you don't, people will continue to treat you like a novice. Humility is overrated. Surprising news from a friend comes as music to your ears.

Resist the urge to buy status symbols with no meaning for you. It's better to spend your hard earned cash on something you love. Trust your instincts. Buying something on impulse will prove a smart move. Sparks are flying between you and a love interest. It's tempting to use them as a buffer from stress. Don't make a move unless you're willing to make a serious commitment. An exciting shake up on the career front is good news for you.

It's hard not to get emotional over a strained relationship. You're ready to explore greener pastures, while your partner wants to stay put. Something has got to give. Fortunately, your financial prospects are good, wherever you go. The problem remains finding a place where you both can be happy. Resist the temptation to seduce your friend into doing things your way. This decision is too important. Resorting to trickery will only create future resentments. You've got to play fair and square in this game.

It may not be possible to endure someone's prejudice any longer. Parting ways won't be easy, as this person doesn't pick up on subtle messages. You may have to be blunt about why you haven't returned their phone calls and emails. A burst of energy will be the result of this break. It may come as a surprise to learn how much emotional energy you've been wasting on this hanger on. You could be singled out at work for a brilliant idea.

Intimate knowledge of a practical subject makes you a hot commodity. Teaching, writing, or lecturing could yield lots of extra cash. Things are looking good on the romance front, too. Someone who makes your pulse pound could finally ask you for a date. The two of you are sure to have a great time, wherever you go and whatever you do. Don't expect a friend to be happy about the news, though. Secretly, your pal is worried about being replaced.

A close relationship could be showing signs of strain. Your friend may not understand your need to stay home and keep your head down. It's time to stand your ground. Agreeing to go to a party just to keep the peace will end in disaster. It's better to be honest, even at the risk of having a fight. An authority figure could be wearing on your last nerve, too. It's possible you helped create this solution by going along with their every demand.

A child's temper tantrum could embarrass you in a public place. Work hard to keep your cool. If you feel your temper starting to rise, count to ten. Remember, you are the adult here. It's your job to establish rules of conduct. If you don't, this youngster will suffer the consequences later on. Beware of making promises you can't keep, especially to a neighbour or sibling. Letting them down will cause a huge rift in your relationship. Be conservative about your commitments.

Amour could be a source of contention. If you're in a relationship, one of you may be feeling a little neglected or even ignored. If you're single, you are suffering from withdrawal. At times like these, you've got to reconnect with your sensual side. Treat yourself to a massage, spa treatment, or hot bath. Any activity that turns your mind off and your body on is favoured. A job which affords a great deal of emotional satisfaction could be lucrative, too.

You're very generous with both your time and money. It makes you feel good to help other people. Beware of being too giving with a female relative who has a tendency to overstep her boundaries. You've got to give your gifts away selectively, or you'll wind up feeling used. A business or romantic partner could try to pressure you into making a decision. Steer clear of them so you can weigh your options rationally. A workable compromise is possible.

Trust your instincts when it comes to making money. If you're forced to make a choice between a fun job and a tedious one, choose the former. It doesn't matter if it pays a lot less than the boring position. You'll soon find a way to triple your earnings. A heart to heart talk with a close relative proves illuminating. You're starting to learn what makes them tick. This will go a long way towards repairing past wounds.

Your job today is to inspire the group, so if you see certain members of the team getting discouraged, offer a pep talk. The mere fact you recognised their distress will go a long way in restoring their spirits. Don't push to go home until the job is totally finished. Now is not the time to shirk your duties. There may not be as much money as you'd like, but you've got to make do with what you have. Fortunately, you're resourceful when it comes to advertising.
