A spectacular week for embracing the unexpected and watching your life change for the good. A chance to realise your personal goals and objectives will rain down like manna from heaven. Your leadership qualities have never been more evident. Perhaps that's why the powers-that-be have so much faith in you. Turn a deaf ear to your inner critic and pursue future projects that are closest to your heart. Not all of them may turn out exactly the way you expect, but a surprise should be welcomed as a blessing in disguise.

When you wake up this morning you'll be amazed what this week has in store for you. Getting involved with an unusual career or vocation is the last thing people would expect of you. Generally, you're content to remain with the majority. Right now, however, you long to do something that lends you distinction. Feel free to follow any ambitious impulses that adults told you were pointless or bizarre. Such intuitions will be unusually in keeping with your life's mission. Forget what is practical and pursue what is compelling.

Keep an open mind and curious heart for your stars are perfect for adventure. Living your life through someone else has no charm for you; prepare to experience life on your own terms. Taking an extended trip or going somewhere off the beaten track will be the making of you. You could decide to get an advanced degree in an unusual subject. However you decide to branch out, it will come as a total shock to those who THOUGHT they knew you. Don't bother justifying your behaviour. This is your life, so live it according to your own rules, however unconventional.

Sexually you are awakened by someone whom you'd never thought you'd fancy but they really turn you on. Although you're usually cautious of what others find shocking, you welcome it with open arms now. It's so tiresome clinging to the old ways when everybody else around you is moving forward. This week is your chance to embark on an intimate affair, the like of which you've never known before. Whether that means breaking off a relationship, starting a new lifestyle, or ditching a troubling habit, you'll feel like a whole new person by March.

Shock tactics are demanded in a close affair if things having become stale and boring. Taking a different approach to a partner reveals hidden dynamics in a marriage or relationship. Perhaps you've been letting your other you for granted or vice versa? You both need a degree of space and independence. The most dangerous damage can be caused if one of you feels your individuality is threatened by the other - time to assert yourself before you lose your identity.

Taking an unorthodox or unconventional approach to your health does the medical trick. Beginning a fresh line of work by learning more about IT and computer technology will be grist to your ambitions. Alternately, you could be turned on by a form of exercise that heightens your energy, brightens your outlook and strengthens your nerves. Get out of old patterns that make life dull and predictable. Whilst you have always taken comfort in certain routines, they can be limiting. Take your life by the scruff of the neck and do something daring.

One of the most startling periods of your year for falling in love at first sight. A desire to express yourself in some new and exceptional way hits you like a jolt of electricity. Divine inspiration comes from the strangest and weirdest places. Children are especially active at jogging old memories and changing your perspective on life and yourself. If you're single, there has never been a better time to meet someone who drives you crazy but you can't stop thinking about them. If you're attached then take care as this can also mean a sexual flash in the pan!

Don't do anything rash or reckless home wise that you'll live to regret. You have a strong desire to pick up and move to a whole new location. Before you do anything on a whim, consider what effect this will have on your security and family? You may be better off taking a break and getting a temporary change of scene. You obviously need to get something out of your system as the tension is becoming too much. Release your pent-up feelings by inviting variety into your world.

Let anyone play on your fears or inner prejudice and you'll be the major loser in the end. Social and romantic opportunities abound, thanks to your sparkling conversation and stimulating intellect. Strike up a discussion with anyone you like and you will have a spankingly good time. You will discover an unusual connection; is it coincidence, whatever - it's meant to be. Starting a radical campaign in your community will bring more people to your cause than you ever predicted. That can be difficult to do in this age of alienation, but you will be amazed how little effort you'll have to put forth in order to influence authority.

Spending money on modern equipment or accessories that are an investment is highly favoured now. Increased charisma and personal magnetism attracts an exciting financial opportunity to you. This is a fine time to go on a job interview. You can make money in the craziest ways; try anything once, as you've nothing to lose and everything to gain. Money that links you to a humanitarian cause will be good for your spirit and soul and also help those in distress or plagued by bad government.

There aren't enough superlatives to describe your magnificence so take it from another Aquarian that you are in a class of your own. Your impulse for personal freedom and independence breaks all bounds. Sever links from the old way of doing things and strike out on your own. You don't have to abandon everyone or everything altogether, but you should loosen any grips that people or monotony have over your life. Don't make the mistake of using responsibility as an excuse for delaying your dreams. You have to seize your destiny and seize it now. People will love or loathe you but that's the price you pay for genius.

Take any psychic flash as proof positive that you have powers which can protect and benefit you. An unusual intuitive experience tells you to go off in an unexpected direction. Some folks may be shaken and stirred at your strange behaviour, but don't let it worry you. What's important here is that you are tuning in to energies that can't be detected by the average person. Recognise this as your secret weapon. When you're hot, you're hot!
