Before jumping in headfirst, ask yourself whether the plans and ideas you are now so excited about actually will be worthwhile. Are some people exaggerating likely consequences? A little logical forethought is highly recommended. Equally, tact and diplomacy may be necessary if you're trying to persuade others into your way of thinking.

Don't let anyone bully you into going along with arrangements you aren't happy about. You should learn to put your own feelings and needs higher up on your list of priorities. Someone is trying to persuade you into making some sweeping changes. You do not have to go along with their ideas.

Just because you aren't inclined to share your thoughts and feelings, it doesn't mean you won't listen when someone needs to talk. Sometimes just allowing a friend or loved one to get something off their chest can bring them relief. You could learn something to your advantage too, through listening to and observing what is going on around you.

A workmate lacks vision and imagination even though a project you are working on demands creativity. You may have to suggest ideas and hope they will be able to expand them. Someone in the family isn't expecting to get the understanding they are hoping for. Be ready to show both tolerance and patience when in their company.

People in business meetings and seminars are hoping to inspire others by offering bonuses, perks and financial incentives. You might get the feeling that someone is greatly exaggerating the likely benefits of their plans. Before making a commitment, check if the carrot they are dangling in front of you really does exist.

Someone who recently did you a favour now seems to be in need of some assistance. They may need a lift somewhere or something picked up for them and it will be no inconvenience to you, to offer to help. Don't wait to be asked. Let them know you're happy to do this for them.

You're being asked to take on extra responsibilities when there are others who are perfectly capable of managing these tasks. You are allowing lazy people to take advantage of your kindness. You may not mind helping others but at least make it your aim to help those who can't help themselves.

Housemates are brimming over with ideas on how to improve your home. Some of these will be worth considering further but others will be unrealistic. It's worth pointing this out to them from the start. Plan carefully. Think through everything and your immediate future holds much in the way of happiness and success.

A conversation you accidentally overhear should be kept strictly to yourself. In business and finance, do some research before agreeing to anything of a long-term nature. You need to be absolutely certain that what you are being told is the true and honest version.

You need to know the choices you are now making are yours alone and not because you have allowed persuasive people to influence your decision. Give some serious thought to a proposition recently put to you. You don't want to be subconsciously swayed by the feelings of those close to you.

A close friend or relative is suffocating you with attention. They seem to think you could do with some company or ideas to keep you occupied throughout the day when in fact you are in need of neither. What you desperately desire is some space. For the sake of future harmony someone needs to know you hate being mollycoddled.

Heavy responsibilities keep you busy. You were expecting this to be a heavy day responsibility-wise and because others appreciate all you are doing for them, you will not resent this in the slightest. Someone you are introduced to will share your fascination with the magical and mystical. This could be the start of a fascinating friendship.
