You aren't short of energy today no matter where you are, who with or what you are doing. As always you will throw yourself into anything that brings pleasure and you're keen to liven up your world. There is no shortage of creative ideas once you get started on anything artistic or crafty. An old face could pop up from the past and remind you of happy times.

It could prove to be in your eventual interests to discuss your thoughts for the future with your partners. Pursuing goals that aren't shared with loved ones could cause problems in the future unless you discuss this from the start. If your plans might mean changes ahead, you need the approval and cooperation of those who share your life. If you ignore their feelings you could be in for a difficult time.

You wonder whether you have taken on too much recently and perhaps certain commitments seem beyond your ability. If you tell yourself you can't do it, you could talk yourself into believing this even if it is not so. You are capable of more than you believe. Even if you can't summon up faith you once had in certain ideas, this will be provided for you when someone praises you and shows a strong degree of respect for your talents.

Plans made for today are touch and go; someone shows signs of changing their mind. Your mood is flexible and you will swiftly fall in with whatever is decided on. If footloose and fancy free, a get together in the evening seems tailor made for romance. You strongly suspect a friend of playing Cupid but you won't object when their heart is in the right place!

If you can't quite get into a relaxed mood this is because your mind is rebelling at the thought of trivial pastimes. You have a lot of thinking to do. Preferably you will be doing this within the comfort of your own four walls. A neighbour extends an unusual invitation later in the day. Although this could interfere with your plans, accepting a spur of the moment offer could produce an upturn in current events.

Your partner might notice a change in you; you want your feelings to be taken more seriously. Other people need to realise that sex is not a game. You are looking for something genuine and more enduring from your relationships. Your natural inhibition may have caused you to keep a lot of your feelings bottled up inside. Today say what's on your mind and your partner will be equally as open with you.

A purchase you might make on a whim will give you a lot of pleasure. You might add variety to your shopping list by trying out new brand names, new shopping centres or spending your money with a little more imagination. A friend feels guilty because they can't pay you for a favour you do for them. You aren't in it for the money. The pleasure comes through being able to help someone and make a difference to their life.

A relative who usually keeps their opinions to themselves offers you some useful advice today. You will take this seriously because you know they have your best interests at heart. If you are at present laying the foundations for long term projects, home alterations or some other form of improvements, this advice could be the catalyst you need to get started. Consider developing your psychic abilities as your intuition is high.

Despite feeling a need for seclusion you will not be wasting your time. You are in for an active and resourceful day. You will want to keep things behind the scenes rather than in the public eye. A reclusive mood governs your thoughts and actions; there are some people you don't want to talk to. You are less inclined to confide in others and yet more determined to show them what you're made of.

You could be spending time today with people who are less well off than yourself. There is a strong desire to channel your humanitarian impulses into projects assisting the needy and suffering. Helping others helps you to rid yourself of a lot of pent up emotion. Your willingness to listen to someone who wants to talk over their troubles cements a friendship for life.

Friendships play an active and important part of today's events. Reunions with past acquaintances revive your interest in an old hobby or activity. As the day wears on, what began as a small group could increase into quite a crowd. The more the merrier seems to be everyone's motto and your own high spirits escalate with the merry mood around you.

It is not a good idea to indulge in fanciful notions when new projects are being discussed. Introduction to a previously unknown place or an activity you have never tried before makes you want to experience more. Be careful not to rush into new ventures blindly. Take things one step at a time and you could end up in a good position on which to build in the future.
