There is more to someone you meet today than first meets the eye. You may not take immediately to a new colleague but give it time. First impressions can be misleading. Getting along with authority figures will be especially difficult now and you need to make sure your feelings are not on show.

You have a big decision to make. You want to take your time over this. Change makes you nervous. At the same time you do realise that a certain choice could pave the way for a successful future. Because of the uncertainty, what seems like a dream come true feels more like a nightmare. Let everything sink in and then decide what to do.

Avoid impulsive moves. You are about to make a decision that could affect the rest of your life. Spend some time alone considering this more carefully. There is a lot going on in your life and you have a lot to think about. You need to take your time.

A friend or workmate who has always appeared as solid as a rock is hiding the fact that they have some big worries on their mind. They feel as if they are falling apart yet outwardly they show no signs of this. Trust your intuition and if you can sense someone needs support, offer yours.

Someone who has been objectionable towards you in the past will now seem more willing to support your ideas. Don't question why they have had this change of heart. If you need their support and they are willing to fall in with your suggestions, make the most of this unexpected opportunity while you can.

If you tell someone you don't mind doing them a favour, do you really mean it or are you just being polite? A friend could do with a helping hand and you may feel obliged to offer yours even though you had other things planned or you just aren't keen on what they are asking of you.

Although there is no hint of it as the day begins, an argument is about to erupt. Everything may appear normal on the surface but underneath it all, there are some smouldering emotions. Someone will hide their feelings for only so long but very soon they are about to reveal their anger.

A meeting arranged to share ideas and consider new suggestions will disappoint you. Many of the ideas being discussed are ones you have already heard before. If those in high places are asking for something new and different, stick your neck out and put forward some of those original thoughts that spring to your mind.

You're excited to get your teeth into something new. The launch of a project or campaign will be a great channel for your skills and energy. You can hardly contain your excitement but stay calm. This is just the beginning and there is a lot of hard work in front of you.

You will get the chance to display your natural common sense and self-discipline. Someone in a position of authority is about to make a big mistake. If you happen to like them, you might step in and offer a few discreet suggestions. This will save them a lot of embarrassment.

Encourage others to be honest about their thoughts and feelings. You set a good example by being open in all your dealings. Keep trying if you are trying to get someone close to open up to you. A sensitive issue will need sensitive handling and you are the right person for this.

Talks and meetings today will give you the strong impression that a legal or financial matter will soon be completed. If discussing the details of a house sale or purchase, the end is at last in sight. Take up an offer that is likely to provide you with new knowledge, skills or experience.
