No one will find it easy to fool you no matter how skilful they might think they are at deceiving others. Experience has taught you to trust others only on the basis of observation, analysis and reasonable assessment. If someone asks you to believe them this will make you immediately wary.

Try to get some breathing space. Lately you've not had much time to yourself and you have enjoyed being sociable but you can't continue without a break. A relaxing day will help restore your depleted energies so you can get through whatever is expected of you in the New Year.

You've been devoting a lot of time to helping others. This has left you with little chance to develop personal plans. It may be necessary to consider how to get a balance between personal and social affairs in the future. In areas where you are working as part of a team you will shine.

If you're entertaining family or friends or throwing a Christmas party you may have to do so on a budget. You're reluctant to have to cut costs in case this reduces the overall festive flavour. Accept the advice of a practical relative when they remind you of how imaginative you can be and you will find a way to celebrate without it breaking the bank.

You have reached a time when what you do and say could have a great deal of consequence on your future. With so many other things going on this does not seem to be the best of times for such responsibility to lie on your shoulders. It will take a lot of concentration and dedicated effort to keep your wits about you.

There's a confused pattern to events when you may need to sort out some private matters but other people keep getting in the way. Someone who thinks they know everything will try to muddle your thinking with their crazy suggestions. Stick to practical means and methods if you don't want to waste your time.

You cannot predict the future and see how a relationship might go. Your love life is a little uncertain. If you have just begun a new relationship, it's too soon to try to work out how things are going to turn out. Rather than try to analyse your feelings, take it one step at a time.

You might sense there's more to someone's goodwill than first appears. A situation is being stage managed to their benefit. You seem to be the only one to realise this. Don't doubt yourself. Your intuition rarely lets you down. Be careful about getting too deeply involved with this person.

There may be a need to show quiet understanding towards someone you care about. Their behaviour may leave you slightly confused but eventually they will reveal what has caused them to act this way. An older relative is about to propose some unexpected plans for all the family.

A new relationship isn't working out as you had hoped. Your partner's volatile emotions are hard to understand. The highs they take you to, are too high and the lows, too low. Talk to others who are expecting too much from you and work on a compromise or accept you can't live up to their expectations and it is time they too, faced that fact.

You're considering your long-term objectives. You have a good idea on what you want to do as you look ahead to the year 2022 and it might be time to share your plans with those who are close to you. If they know the way your mind is working it won't come as such a shock to them when the right time arrives.

Be open about your feelings. People can't guess what you are thinking. Someone close would like to discuss the future. You won't ever taste the real joy of a loving and lasting union if you aren't prepared to make a commitment. Take a deep breath and give in to your romantic inclinations.
