Negotiating professional agreements is highly favoured, so long as you keep your cool. The initial offers you get may fill you with rage, but if you manage to disguise this anger behind a mask of gentility you'll go far. Pointed banter will make your superiors realise you won't put up with any nonsense. Don't be afraid to repeatedly return a suggested agreement if it doesn't meet your needs. Be demanding but polite.

You're very enterprising when it comes to making money, which impresses authority figures. Don't let an aggressive man steal your thunder. If you catch this person taking credit for your ideas, work to correct the assumption. Normally, you prefer to take a laid-back attitude towards work. By being a little bit more feisty, though, you'll overcome obstacles that once held you fast. Step forward and assume your place in the spotlight.

Your self-confidence makes it virtually impossible for people to refuse your demands. If you encounter someone who knows more than you, admit your ignorance but refuse to be placed in a subordinate position. Your attitude will win you the grudging admiration of everyone involved. This is a great time to promote your ideas, show off your work, or go on job interviews. Be forceful if you encounter initial resistance.

You may have to resort to some underhanded methods if you're going to avoid an authority figure's scrutiny. Right now, this person's demands are simply unrealistic, given the limitations under which you are operating. By finding a way to get around these obstacles, you'll be able to turn in a great performance. In the meantime, however, you must work to avoid detection. Otherwise, you'll be censured or disciplined, which would be a shame.

Spending time with friends helps you to process anger that's been building within. Those who know you can shed humour on your situation, which is a real relief. Too often, you brood when you experience disappointment. That's exactly the wrong thing to do in this situation. Laughing in the face of disaster will give you the momentum you need to overcome this problem. Invite a few of your funniest pals for a night on the town.

A desire for fame, status, or prominence could push you past your comfort zone today. Fight for a position of power, whether at your job or in a social organisation. The lessons you learn from this struggle will be very valuable. In the past, you've preferred to work as a valued member of the team. Now it's time to channel your talents into more prestigious avenues. It's time you were recognised for your abilities.

Long-distance communications or business deals can take up a great deal of energy. You might want to educate yourself on the ways and means of the people you are dealing with. This will help you forge better agreements and give you a deeper appreciation of your associates. If you play your cards right, you could be given the chance to travel to an exotic foreign land. Wonderful things await you, provided you work hard.

You may find yourself powerfully drawn to an intelligent chatterbox. And although you prefer more subtle methods of seduction, it may be better to take a more forthright approach to this love interest. Otherwise, they'll fail to pick up on your signals. If you're already in a relationship, you may want to pen a few sexy letters to your partner. This is a great way to rekindle the passion between you. Don't let your courtship days fade from memory.

Close relationships take on a fiery quality that is alternately stimulating and scary. Everything your partner says or does seems to touch a nerve. Maybe that's because you realise how much power this person has over your emotions. A free spirit like you hates to be hemmed in by anyone. What you don't realise is love can be a blissful form of entrapment. Surrender to your lover's persuasive charms; you won't be sorry.

You'll be anxious to change your image in some way. Before you get a drastic new hairstyle or throw out your wardrobe in favour of more trendy fashions make sure your mood is not just a passing fancy. The worst case scenario is you ditch all your old colours, clothes and costumes in favour of a whole new look that soon loses its appeal. Knowing what you're doing and understanding what you're getting into is crucial in all aspects of life now.

Physical activity brings out the best in you; this is not a good day to sit behind a desk. Going for a run through the park or playing a game of football after hours will get your creative juices flowing. If it's been a long time since you worked out, you may want to begin with something simple, like walking on a treadmill. Don't be surprised if your exercise increases your capacity for joy; the mind, body, and spirit are connected.

Tackling household projects gives you a divine sense of accomplishment. You can learn to repair broken items through loaning books out of the library. Alternately, you may decide to redecorate a room that doesn't give you much pleasure. The important thing is to expend your energy on domestic matters. The more comfortable your personal environment, the happier and healthier you will be.
