You've gained a reputation for being one of the most talented people in a certain area. It feels good to have the respect and admiration of your peers. Although your expertise is impressive, there is always room for growth. Don't be quick to dismiss a newcomer's ideas. By opening your mind to their approach, you'll achieve even more prominence. Let your pioneer spirit drive you forward. Resting on your laurels makes it easy for rivals to surpass you. Always opt to expand your knowledge.

When in doubt, listen to your conscience. Doing the right thing is difficult when it will cause personal setbacks. Instead of worrying about how your actions will affect your personal and professional prospects, focus on the power of the present moment. By speaking out about your discoveries, you'll be able to follow a more rewarding path. It may be necessary to leave a job, break off a friendship or file a lawsuit to make your point. Have the courage of your convictions.

Obey your instincts about a person who has recently entered your life. This newcomer has a powerful crush on you. By letting down your defences, you could fall in love with them, too. Are you already in a relationship? Stop spending so much time with friends and arrange some intimate outings. Candlelit dinners, picnics in the park and sentimental movie marathons will reignite your mutual passion. When you give your love the time and attention it deserves, it will burst into flower.

You're ready to sign an agreement, but the other side will make some unfair demands at the last minute. Stay calm and hold your ground. When you make it clear that you will not budge, the other side will revert to the original agreement. Best of all, you will set the tone for your future relationship. Many times, people confuse your polite demeanour for weakness. They don't realise that beneath your velvet glove rests a hand of steel.

This is a great time to catch up on chores. If a friend invites you out, turn them away. It's more important to stock the pantry, tidy your surroundings and do some laundry. Once these details are attended, you can have some fun. Neglecting these jobs will make you anxious and irritable. Do yourself a favour and prepare some nutritious meals, pay your bills and fill the car with fuel. This will make the work week much easier.

This is a highly romantic time; take full advantage of it. If you're single, make some overtures towards the person you fancy. Stop telling yourself they couldn't possibly have any interest in you. You're a highly intelligent, sensual person who will make a great partner for the right person. You'll make an especially good couple with someone who shares your desire to build something of lasting value together, like a happy home, thriving business or both. Are you in a relationship? Enjoy an extravagant date night.

Your health is undergoing a steady improvement. Continue to take good care of yourself, even if it's inconvenient to prepare nutritious meals in advance. Being able to reach for a healthy snack will keep your body well nourished, boosting your energy and warding off illness. Keep making time in your busy schedule for daily exercise, even if it's just a brisk walk before or after work. Most importantly, get enough sleep. Start winding down at a certain hour every night. This will train your body to relax.

You'll have a great conversation with a prominent person in your community. By joining forces, you can solve a persistent problem that has been plaguing your neighbours. If government officials won't listen to your complaints, it may be wise to contact the media. Critics might accuse you of being too disruptive, but that's because you're determined. You've never had trouble rocking the boat. Cages must be rattled if positive change is going to occur. Keep making noise until your complaints are addressed.

Home is where the heart is. Feel free to spend more money than usual on a comfortable piece of furniture or a beautiful work of art. When your surroundings uplift and inspire you, anything becomes possible. You might be so happy with the results that you'll decide to launch a business from your home. Although you enjoy mixing with colleagues, office politics and long commutes can get on your nerves. Looking after people's pets, plants and children may be a great way to earn money.

You attract admirers like a flower draws bees. If you're single, you'll feel a powerful connection to someone who has a gift with words. When you listen to them, the world seems like a beautiful place. It's no wonder you want to spend all your time together. Are you already in a relationship? Defend your amour to a critical relative. Taking a neutral stance is hurting your amour. It's time to show where your priorities lie. Take a clear, uncompromising stand.

Adopting a low profile will help you rest and recuperate from a busy weekend. Turn off your mobile and stay off social media. Focus on solitary activities that bring you peace. Reading an engrossing book, taking a leisurely walk or spending time with your pets are all good ways to recharge your batteries. A pest may try to contact you continually. Don't feel pressured to respond to their messages. You shouldn't have to be at this needy person's beck and call.

Volunteering for a charitable organisation is rewarding. You're tired of watching the news and feeling helpless. By finding a way to give back to your community, you'll feel much better about the state of the world. It doesn't matter what cause you choose, if it is personally meaningful. Someone may tease you about your philanthropic ways. Let these jokes roll off your back. Your generous behaviour makes your tormentor feel guilty. That's their problem, not yours. Keep listening to your conscience.
