Work will assume renewed importance in the coming months. You're able to tackle difficult jobs with objectivity. Tasks that once made you angry and frustrated now seem effortless. Although you can do the work of three people, it's important to maintain a sane schedule. Make time to exercise and prepare healthy meals. Make sure you get enough sleep, too. If you don't, you could wipe out all of your progress with one ill timed decision.

Throwing yourself into an artistic endeavour will give you a new lease on life. Anything which allows your creative juices to flow will bring tremendous pleasure in the weeks ahead. If you're looking for love, you could find it at a museum, craft store, or sporting event. Keep your eyes open for an attentive admirer who is impeccably dressed and make sure your first date will be in a beautiful scenic setting

Take the direct approach when it comes to family. In the past, a certain male relative has played games with your emotions. It's time to call his bluff. By addressing his behaviour in a public place, he'll be forced to either admit his deceptions or change his ways. Home improvement projects are strongly favoured in the weeks ahead. You could get a tough job done in record time, which will save you both money and aggravation.

You're filled with nervous energy. Be sure to channel it in a positive direction, or it will be hard to sleep at night. This is a wonderful opportunity to catch up on chores that have fallen through the cracks. You can also re establish contact with friends, neighbours, and relatives. Taking a short trip for pleasure is highly favoured. It will be a bit of a whirlwind tour, but you'll still have fun. Ask a relative or a neighbour to come along.

Drive and determination characterise everything you do. You're willing to work hard to make extra money. Taking on a second job or opening a business are among the possibilities on offer now. Be resourceful with your funds. Putting a portion of your earnings into savings will help you move on to bigger and better things. Resist the temptation to buy luxuries the moment money comes in or all of your hard work will be for naught.

A courageous outlook helps you vault over obstacles that once stood in your path. You're no longer willing to sit and wait for your ship to come in. When you see something you want, you go after it. This is especially true if there's a personal risk involved. At times, you will clash with stuffy corporate types who want to maintain the status quo. After doing battle with you, they'll give you the chance you need to succeed.

Donating your time and money to a charitable organisation will prove rewarding. You're tired of focusing on material matters. Working to help disadvantaged people or animals makes you realise an individual really can make a difference. Don't be too hard on yourself if some creative plans go by the wayside. You've only got one pair of hands. For the next few weeks, focus on giving yourself positive reinforcement, instead of constructive criticism.

Making changes to an outdated institution will take up the lion's share of your time in the coming weeks. You'll have to get tough with the powers that be. Whenever you meet with resistance, remember the threat of negative publicity is a strong motivator. Don't be afraid to expose shoddy workmanship or discriminatory practices. Unless you speak up, nobody else will. Use your talent for digging up facts. You're sure to turn up some interesting information.

Climbing your way to the top should be a slow but steady journey. Although you've never been known for your patience, you need to summon it now. Authority figures are interested in seeing someone who will stick around for the long haul. Don't be afraid to assume heavy responsibilities and hefty workloads. In a few weeks' time, you could be offered a raise, promotion, or both. Until then, focus on the tasks before you.

Don't be too free with your opinions, particularly regarding religion and politics. You never know who will take offence these days. Don't be fooled if you're asked for your honest opinion. What they really want is a pat on the back. Being blunt will jeopardise your relationship. You may be travelling for business in the next few weeks. Make sure your passport is updated, as you may be going overseas. Save hassles by packing as lightly as possible.

Powerful desires could draw you into an admirer's orbit. In the past, they may not have made a very big impression. This will change in the weeks ahead. The more time you spend with this smouldering volcano, the more entranced you will become. It's not like you to fall under somebody's spell. Once you do, you'll be much more compassionate towards a friend who is always suffering affairs of the heart.

You could be caught in the middle of a protracted battle. Refuse to take sides in this situation. If someone gives you an ultimatum, you'll know your relationship wasn't that strong to begin with. A true friendship doesn't have strings attached. If you feel a romance is a bit one sided, you may want to back down until a proper balance is restored. All the power can't rest in one person's hands.
