Disruptive youngsters or love demands make Monday a difficult day to keep control over others. You want your way and they want theirs. Unless you give an inch someone else will take a yard. It’s in everyone’s interest to compromise if only to keep the peace.

You’re in one of your stubborn moods today. Even if you see sense in admitting you’re wrong or changing your stance, will you? The hell you will! That kind of intransigent attitude will rub people up the wrong way at home and work. Is it worth the hassle?

The more artistic your aspirations the better the day you’ll have. If you have a vision which includes wanting to help those worse off than you then join an organisation that actively goes out to assist them. A fine day to exercise your sense of fair play.

Financial pressures don’t make it easy for you to exist at the moment. Rather than wait for more demands on your do-ugh assert yourself and find where you’re missing out in the monetary stakes. You might not be going about doing things in the right way.

When the Moon’s in any sign her effects are emotion-al and sentimental. So the fact the silver lady is in your sign today makes it a sensitive start to the week. Apart from anything else, you must be careful you don’t take what people say or do too personally.

Devoting yourself to others wants and needs is wh-at you’re drawn to do today. So long as you don’t allow folk to take advantage of your good nature you’ll reap the rewards of your altrui-stic acts in the future. A link with a hospital or hostel is likely.

There’s no pleasing some people today. What’s so hard to take is that the folk who give you most grief are those who should know better. Friends, children or loved ones who know you’re up against the wall but don’t let the pressure off. You won’t forget.

Your fixed character is legendary but don’t live up to the legend today. The more pliable and adaptable you are, the more progress you make. Even if you feel you want to dig your heels in, think on this, you’ll set your prospects back light years if you do.

A child makes you proud of their achievements as does your own ability to come up with a successful idea. Your love life is full of sexual sparks which triggers off a week of passion. More importantly, a creative opportunity comes from foreign contacts.

You escape much of the upset emanating from the heavens though joint finances does have its problems. If you distance yourself emotionally and deal with intimate things from a rational standpoint the easier it will be to sort out. Don’t be manipulated.

Thinking you know better or putting someone down in public has repercussions on your relationship with them. You must be generous in your praise and any criticism should be vented in pri-vate. You need a certain amount of independence for a partnership to work.

Something you have to learn today is that charity begins at home. That doesn’t mean you have to be selfish but it does mean you can’t be all things to all people. Reserve some time for yourself and don’t ignore those closest to you who need your help.
