Your savings are dwindling it's time to take some emergency measures. Stop going out on expensive outings with your friends. You should stay home and cook your own meals instead of going to expensive restaurants and clubs. Fortunately, you have a great imagination and can entertain yourself quite easily. This would be a great time to launch a creative project. Writing a story will be a great diversion that doesn't cost anything. You could also compose music or paint.

Your best friend or lover will let you down. After waiting around for their help, you will realise you'll have to do a difficult job yourself. Don't dwell on your disappointment. Just roll up your sleeves and get to work. It looks as if you have to have a serious talk with your loved one. Just because you're responsible doesn't mean you should be saddled with all the difficulties in the relationship. Head off on your own for some rest and relaxation.

You lack the specialised skills to perform a job. Stop pretending to know what you are doing and ask for help. A brilliant expert will come forward to show you the ropes. You'll appreciate your instructor's unorthodox methods, while they'll enjoy your upbeat attitude. Together, you can produce some really impressive work. You have no problem serving as an apprentice, so long as your contributions aren't scorned or underplayed. This will be the start of a beautiful friendship.

Hang ups over intimacy are causing problems in an intimate relationship. You've got to let go of your fears and become more receptive to your lover's desires. If you're single, it may be because you're afraid of becoming physically intimate with someone. Letting down your defences will make you vulnerable, but it will also allow you to abandon yourself to pleasure. Getting in touch with your sensual side will give you a special glow that is noticeable to everyone. Strut your stuff.

You're having difficulty with an older relative who has certain expectations of you. Remember, you are your own person. Trying to adapt your lifestyle to satisfy somebody else is a mistake. The time has come to go your own way. If this leads to an estrangement, so be it. Eventually, your relative will come around. Until then, surround yourself with supportive friends who will help you through this time of trial. Don't let guilty feelings cause you to back down.

No matter how hard you try, it is difficult to master an elusive concept. Part of the problem is your study routine. You have to vary your days so you intersperse reading and work with leisure. That seems impossible, given your busy schedule, but it can be done with a little willpower. Sitting for hours on end trying to read complicated material will only give you a headache. Read a chapter, go for a walk, read another and enjoy a nice cup of tea.

A deep fear of poverty discourages you from having fun. Unfortunately, the harder you work, the more difficult it becomes to save money. That's because you're operating from a poverty consciousness. Instead of obsessing over what you don't have, focus on the blessings you currently enjoy. Each night, write a list of ten things for which you are grateful. This will make you feel more prosperous. Pretty soon, you'll attract moneymaking opportunities you want and paying the bills will be easy.

Insisting on order and discipline won't go over well. Everybody's eager to end work and have some fun. The harder you push people to meet deadlines and reach objectives, the more they'll push back. Focus on your own objectives and let everybody else do as they please. Your boss will appreciate your diligent attitude. There are compensations for being responsible. Be aware that your family won't be so thrilled when they hear you will be spending more time at the office.

Isolating yourself from the crowd won't solve your problems. You have to face a difficult situation, even if it means breaking off a relationship with a relative or neighbour. Pretending to ignore outrageous behaviour is wearing on your nerves. You simply have to put your foot down. Fortunately, you have an opportunity to travel, which will keep you far from the pest in question. Instead of keeping to yourself on this journey, make an effort to make friends along the way.

Friends are discouraging you from taking a certain job. Although this position pays very well, there is a morally questionable executive involved. It may be best to steer clear of this venture, if only to preserve your professional reputation. Right now, your career concerns are giving way to family responsibilities. Spending more time at home will be more rewarding than giving the lion's share of your energy to a demanding job. Think about adjusting your priorities.

You're reluctant to pursue a career because you are afraid it will impact on your freedom. You should apply for a high powered position that has recently opened. You're tailor made for this job. The worst thing that could happen is that you'll get the spot and you'll hate it. If this happens, quit. Chances are you will love the chance to use your creativity with such an inventive group of people. Opportunities related to communication or technology would all be good for you.

You're reluctant to try new ideas, preferring to stick to the tried and tested but, it's important to venture into unfamiliar territory. If you stay in this rut, you'll miss a golden opportunity for advancement. The chance to travel for business will fall into your lap once you demonstrate curiosity in the unknown. Visiting an exotic country will give you a brilliant idea for a product or service that will be very popular on your home turf.
