You're intent on meeting a tight deadline, even if it means hiding away from the world. The powers that be are bearing down hard. Luckily, you're the type who thrives under pressure. One thing you should avoid is physical stress. If you start getting a headache, stomach pains, or back strain, get some gentle exercise. A walk, gentle stretching, or swim can keep anxiety at bay. It will also replenish your mental capabilities, allowing you to do a great job in record time.

A desire for romance prompts you to do something totally out of character. Take this opportunity to write a steamy love letter or ask someone for a date. Being the aggressor is good training for you. As a general rule, you prefer to receive than to give. There's nothing wrong with that, but knowing how to work both sides of the streets will improve your love prospects. Don't let a pushy youngster coerce you into buying an expensive toy or gadget you can't afford.

Spending time with your nearest and dearest is your first order of business. You might have to face off with your boss or an authority figure. Although it's flattering to be wanted by the powers that be, you can't sacrifice your personal life for your professional one. If your job is demanding too much attention, it may be wise to find another position, or at least negotiate a better arrangement with your superiors. A little compromise will work wonders for your psyche.

You're eager to put your hard earned knowledge to work. By applying for several jobs in your desired field, you could finally get paid to do what you love. It may be necessary to take a pay cut or accept a low level position in the early stages. That's better than staying in an utterly stultifying spot. If you're unemployed, take this opportunity to get additional job training. Skills related to computer programming, research, and writing will boost your prospects.

There's nothing wrong with wanting the good life. You have a deep appreciation for luxury, and need rich textures, fine food, and beautifully made artwork to thrive. Some people criticise your expensive taste, calling it wasteful and decadent. Turn a deaf ear to these criticisms. Everyone has different vices. So long as your desire for comfort and beauty doesn't become an obsession, you'll be fine. Besides, you've always been very generous with your possessions.

You're more assertive than usual, pressing your point when you're met with resistance. This is a healthy change for you. Normally, you're so anxious to serve others you ignore your own needs. Don't make that mistake now, when the stars are giving extra power to you. This is a great opportunity to step up your exercise routine. Aerobic activities like running, swimming, and biking will make you more energetic and mentally alert. Mix up your routine so you won't get bored.

Make more time for the activities that provide spiritual fulfilment. Earning money and socialising are important, but so is connecting with your spirit. Set some time aside each day to be alone with your thoughts. When you put your priorities first, you'll win the respect of your peers. Suddenly it will be easier to get your plans and projects agreed. Colleagues will become more cooperative and people will be more receptive to your creative input.

You're about to realise a cherished dream. Instead of basking in the spotlight you'll throw yourself into a new project. While it's exciting you have so many opportunities at your disposal, you should be aware of potential burnout. Learn to stop and smell the flowers. Go and celebrate your accomplishments with friends and family. You've worked so hard, and now victory is finally here, you should enjoy it. Stop being so modest all of the time!

A prize, award, or promotion is coming your way. Once word spreads of your accomplishment, you'll be in great demand. You should be very discerning about selecting your next opportunity. If you want a new career, choose one that offers a lot of intellectual stimulating. Doing the same thing day after day dulls your sense of adventure. Financial stability is important, but personal happiness is more essential to your health and wellbeing. Turn down a well paid, but dull job offer.

You've attained expert status, and it feels great. With impressive knowledge comes heavy responsibility. You may be asked to raise awareness of a pressing problem in your community. Alternatively, somebody could ask you to join a new project. Even if such an opportunity is not lucrative, it has to be emotionally rewarding. Besides, it could lead to an exciting career opportunity. Word will spread of your talent, and pretty soon an executive will offer you a high paid job.

Working behind the scenes is critical to your success. Don't reveal your true feelings to friends, relatives, and colleagues. They'll just try to talk you out of your plans. You're determined to transform your life in some profound way. This always makes people nervous. If you're interested in a romantic relationship, you will have to take a slow, subtle approach to your dream lover. Take your cues from a magnetic movie character you've always admired.

Your partner is pushing you to take a gamble. The last thing you want to do is venture into unfamiliar territory. Unfortunately, it is the only way you will grow and change. Take their advice and apply for a job, go back to school, or audition for a role. You could be rejected, but that's better than sitting around and wondering what might have been. Besides, the more chances you take, the less intimidated you will be to try something new.
