You’re not the only one with bright ideas and if you listen to someone older or wiser, they will come up with some simple ways of how you can enrich and enhance your life. With the big money conjunction coming up on Sunday avoid financial extremes as only by balancing the books will you prosper.

There are good reasons why you should jump at an opportunity which offers you the chance to advance your knowledge or worldly experience but there are other equally as valid reasons why you shouldn’t. Very soon your life will take a lurch down a fresh avenue so make no decisions until after the weekend.

Delays and difficulties that have you spitting feathers at the start of the day will ease around noon so hold on to your patience until then as come p.m. the trends start to roll your way. You’re about to discover why your intuition is a friend you should look after and listen into.

Events over the week ahead will bring fascinating people into your orbit but a friend is for life not for a day. Choose the new acquaintances you mix with carefully as they might expect far too much from you. The best platonic relationship is built on give and take - just like a marriage.

A strong sense of duty impels you to take over a situation when no-one else seems to want to get a move on. This puts you in touch with untapped potentials within yourself or outside your usual vicinity. It won’t be long before you’ll be given a green light to pursue a new path and ambition.

Common-sense temporarily deserts you as Cupid’s darts hits their mark and you react to a spontaneous romantic gesture. Your disconnected frame of mind makes it difficult to concentrate on anything serious. The more you can travel the easier it will be to find a way through problems.

Don’t drag your feet when dealing with an issue that needs a definite decision. Like the symbol for your sign - the scales - you feel the need to balance everything 50/50, but spend too long weighing up the pros-and-cons and you will miss out on something that is good for you for the here and now.

Instead of wondering how someone is going to react to news you have to tell them, give them a call, write them a letter or send an e-mail but do something. Once you act and you get it off your chest, you’ll find you wasted too much time worrying and their reaction was nothing like you thought.

Hoping to increase your earning potential or expand a business venture? If so, be quick to take advantage of obscure opportunities. Doing someone of influence a favour helps you climb the corporate ladder or find a better paying job so any inconvenience could be worth the sacrifice.

Unexpected but not entirely unwelcome developments could turn a working relationship into something more exciting. Although you may have some qualms about mixing business with pleasure, they aren’t enough to stop you from making the most of what’s on offer. The best is yet to come.

Everyone has strengths and weaknesses so don’t get fraught if there is something you personally can’t quite hack. If you’re determined to master a certain art, practice makes perfect. If not, so what? There are plenty of willing helpers around in the shape of family and friends.

The more you talk, the more you’ll realise where you’ve been going wrong. Discussions will reveal a perfect way of solving problems that have had you beaten in the past. You might need assistance before you can go any further but collective efforts will bring the best results for all.
