Unreasonable people will try to throw you off your game. Do not get rattled when someone demands you drop everything you are doing and come to their aid. Instead, smile, explain you are busy doing something else and give them an approximate time when you will be able to attend to their needs. There is a good chance this troublemaker will flounce off in a huff. If they do, that's good news. If not, keep your cool and summon the authorities.

Love, fun and adventure continue to take up most of your time. A jealous friend will try to undermine your happiness with a backhanded compliment. This could be the straw that breaks the camel's back. You're tired of putting on a false front with someone who is supposed to care about you. Stop returning their phone calls and agreeing to meetings. If they ask why you've been distant, explain your priorities have changed. Once this pest gets the message, they'll find another victim.

Family has an increasing importance for you. Instead of pouring all your energy into career and social pursuits, you're happy staying home with your nearest and dearest. Your employer is frustrated you are no longer willing to work around the clock for their benefit. Instead of rearranging your schedule, look for another line of work. Launching a business from home will be one way to maintain your equilibrium while making money. You shouldn't neglect one area of your life to serve another.

You've found a new community and it is bringing out the best in you. It feels wonderful to exchange theories and bits of trivia with people who share your interests. Family and friends will notice you are spending lots more time on social media. They'll complain they don't see enough of you. Setting aside certain times each day to devote to your social network will keep your other relationships from suffering. If you're surrounded by toxic people, think about relocating.

Financial matters are looking up for you. Someone who is jealous of your monetary success will demand a loan or gift of cash. Be ready to turn down this request. There is no reason you should share this bounty with someone who has continually squandered their own money. You've always been generous to a fault. This has caused opportunists to take advantage of you. Now you have the chance to treat yourself to some luxuries, you shouldn't squander it.

Undergoing a personal transformation has been empowering. You're no longer willing to put up with bad behaviour and disrespectful treatment. Someone who has bullied you into doing their dirty work is in for a surprise. The next time they command you to dispatch an unpleasant job, you will put your foot down. Their shock will be palatable. Instead of getting drawn into a dramatic argument, beat a hasty retreat. Change the locks, block their number and unfriend this emotional vampire.

Going with the flow is the best strategy, especially at work. Colleagues who have become too dependent on you will learn an important lesson. Instead of coming to their rescue, leave them to their own devices. Once they see they can't put off their responsibilities onto you, they'll treat you with grudging respect. Your courageous move will give you more time and energy for the activities you love best. Rearrange your schedule to commune with nature, spend time with pets and develop creative projects.

Although you're not a team player by nature, you have benefitted from working with a group. Collaborating with other talented people has caused several impressive breakthroughs. You're starting to learn to ask for help when you encounter trouble. This is wonderful. You'll always be working on solo projects, because they appeal to your solitary nature. The difference is you will be more open to constructive criticism. Best of all, you'll seek the company of other artistic types who appreciate your work.

Accepting more responsibility has helped you to grow. Nobody blames you for wanting to have fun. They do appreciate your willingness to put your interests aside for the sake of others. Being a more attentive parent, friend and romantic partner has transformed your relationships. It's also boosted your self-esteem. Instead of envying other conscientious people, you'll feel comfortable in their ranks. You'll take pride in the knowledge you have become a source of strength and stability. Instead of writing you off, people are taking you seriously.

You have been more outgoing than usual and it has paid off. Some people are uncomfortable with your free-wheeling style, fearing all control will be lost. Instead of becoming more cautious, up the ante. Enrol in university, book an overseas trip or begin work on a totally new project. You'll always be conscientious and hard-working; that has not changed. Your different outlook is allowing you to spend more time on the activities you enjoy, rather than shouldering everyone else's burdens.

Issues of betrayal, jealousy and trust have caused you to review certain relationships. Your natural inclination is to give others the benefit of the doubt. Now you realise there are certain people who get through life by taking advantage of others. Learning how these manipulators operate will help you avoid trouble in the future. Never give anyone access to your personal information, financial documents and passwords. Taking common sense safety measures will keep opportunists at bay.

It's good to know you have someone trustworthy in your corner. Someone who is jealous of this relationship will try to divide your loyalty. Don't buy into the idea you have to spend lots of time away from home to achieve professional success. You're highly creative and adaptable. When faced with a work challenge, you'll find a way to resolve it without breaking dates and cancelling holidays. If you feel like your current job is undermining your personal life, look for another position.
