Attending a big social event gives you a chance to forget your troubles. At times, you become so focused on a problem the rest of the world falls away. When this happens, you need to take a few steps back and take a look at the big picture. Whatever you're struggling with, you have friends who are poised to help. Whether this assistance takes the form of money, advice, or just sympathetic ears is immaterial. The important thing is to reach out.

Taking the helm of a bureaucratic agency appeals to your love of order. You're able to institute practical methods that will save time, money, and aggravation. Critics will accuse you of being big headed, but it's only because they resent change. Be open to suggestions from the rank and file, as they're the ones who are forced to deal with problems on a daily basis. If you stay focused, you can save your employer enough money to launch new initiatives.

Mythology adds a welcome splash of colour to your life. You've always had an active imagination. It becomes stifled when you're forced to deal with mundane matters all the time. Grant yourself a release by reading a science fiction novel or studying ancient belief systems. You'll soon be transported to another world where anything is possible. If you need suggestions on what to read, ask your local librarian. They will be happy to direct you to some good books.

A loan or gift of money will fall into your lap, quite unexpectedly. Take this opportunity to pamper yourself. Buying yourself an expensive gadget or new wardrobe runs contrary to your cautious instincts, but sometimes you need to be extravagant. Too often, you spend your hard earned money on other people's welfare. Now it's time to indulge your own needs. If you've been feeling a little frumpy, perk yourself up with a top to toe makeover.

It feels as though you can read a loved one's mind right now. The two of you share a passion for art, culture, and music. Take this opportunity to plan a trip together. Visiting a city known for its museums and hotspots will be a welcome break for you both. If you're single, there's a good chance you'll be engaged by the end of this trip. If you're in a relationship, prepare for your partner to give you a beautiful token of their affection.

At long last, you have a chance to relax and unwind. Take the day off work, postpone chores for another time, or hire a babysitter. Devote this time to your pleasure. This could involve something active, like running through the park, or curling up and taking a long nap. Whatever you want is fine, so long as it allows you to put your worries aside. If you're unemployed, you could get a job after volunteering at a charitable institution.

This isn't the first time you've put a loved one on a pedestal. You've always felt a need to set your amour apart from the crowd in some way. Fairy tale ideals are all well and good, until reality comes crashing in. Fortunately, it looks like the air is suffused with pixie dust right now. Going on an idyllic holiday with your lover will only deepen your love for one another. If you're single, head off for a resort in the mountains. You might meet someone special there.

One of the nice things about spending time with family is that you don't need to explain yourself all the time. Your relatives know where you're coming from, and will anticipate your reaction to exciting news. When you're faced with a thrilling transition, you need a little private time to process the information. Nobody will be insulted if you go off on your own. You can always join the party later. Right now, you need to have a little peace and quiet.

Ideas for creative projects are flooding your brain. Lyrics, melodies, and images won't wait; you need to capture them before they leave your head altogether. If that means asking to take the day off work, so be it. Probably you can write, record, or sketch these brainstorms on scrap paper in a few short minutes, then return to your duties. The important thing is to seize inspiration when it first hits, so you can return to it later, when you have time to develop these brainstorms.

Donating your time, money, or both to a charitable institution is a good impulse. Normally, you're focused on the material world. The idea of giving away resources is repugnant to you. Deep down inside you're a very generous person. Sharing your wealth with those who are less fortunate will be emotionally fulfilling. You can't be happy when others are suffering. Choose a cause close to your heart and then support it in any way you can.

You're very sensitive to your surroundings, so be careful about the company you keep. Pessimists can darken your outlook, causing you to expect the worst. Steer clear of gloomy people, even if it means going solo. As a general rule, you're a pretty upbeat person. If left to your own devices, you'll keep an eye out for exciting opportunities. Pretty soon, you'll detect a chance to make a childhood dream come true. It's not too late to take up a musical instrument!

Pay careful attention to your dreams. They are trying to tell you something about a domestic situation. Over the past few weeks, you haven't been sure about whether you should move, get a roommate, or do some renovations. Your subconscious has very definite ideas about what you should do. By tuning into it, you won't go wrong. It's time to make a change, but take care you don't break the bank while doing so. You can transform your life without going broke.
