If you long to have an intimate relationship with someone, you'll have to prove your worth. Be kind, attentive and generous with the object of your affection. Instead of complimenting your amour's appearance, take an interest in their ideas, tastes and values. You'll notice their reserve melting as a result of your interest. The best way to form a trusting relationship is to ask lots of questions and listen closely to the answers you are given. This will give you great insight into their physical desires.

Treat others the way you want to be treated in the early stages. If someone continues to take and take without giving anything in return, keep your distance. It's important to conserve your emotional energy. A person who is dismissive of your talent is secretly jealous. Instead of working hard for their approval, pretend they don't exist. Eventually, your indifference will turn the tables on them. Their efforts to ostracise a kind, humorous person like you will fall flat.

Taking better care of your body is your first order of business. Prepare healthy food and take regular exercise. Stop telling insisting you're too busy to attend to your physical needs. Sitting behind a desk all day can dull your intellect and sap your energy. Start making time for a fitness routine, even if it means cutting back on work. Your relatives may balk at your refusal to do the lion's share of errands. Maybe it's time they shared the load with you.

Your warmth and generosity make you a popular figure. It gives you great pleasure to shower loved ones with affection. When a newcomer arrives on the scene, you'll go out of your way to make them feel welcome. Don't be too pushy with a shy person. Invite them to take advantage of the organisation's perks and offer a range of options. It's sometimes easier to list choices to timid people, as they are reluctant to assert their desires from the outset.

Attending to your own needs can be surprisingly satisfying. In the past, you expected certain relatives and romantic partners to wait on you. Now you're more independent, you take great pleasure in earning money, preparing meals and making plans. Use your managerial skills to run your home like a well oiled machine. Chaotic surroundings make you nervous. You should stock up on supplies to avoid running out of food, toiletries and cleaning products at an inopportune moment.

Intellectual pursuits are comforting. Sometimes it's impossible to make sense of people, so it's easier to escape reality through books. You might want to study psychology as a means to understand a neighbour or relative who is behaving illogically. You're tired of trying to appeal to their common sense, which seems non-existent. Getting a handle on their motivations will allow you to move forward with a plan of action. Having their backing will make you much more productive.

Trust your heart, especially when it comes to career concerns. If you're no longer happy with your current field, make a change. It will take time and effort to undergo this transition, but it can be done. You need work that is personally meaningful. Going through the motions for your pay is not an option. Conservation efforts, art restoration and research are all worthy avenues to explore. Don't let important things from the past be destroyed or forgotten for the sake of 'progress.'

Your courage, self reliance and leadership are inspiring. People will come to you for advice. It's gratifying to know you have everyone's respect. Now you're in demand, take advantage of your bargaining power. Ask for a raise or promotion. Lobby for a high profile political office. Take charge of a prestigious neighbourhood committee. The more titles you add to your CV, the easier it is to gain access to exclusive clubs and organisations. Who you know is just as important as what you know.

Attending to your spiritual needs is important. Going from home to work and back again will undermine your natural enthusiasm for life. Break out of a boring routine and do something fulfilling. Take a long walk through a garden or forest. Spend quality time with your pets. Read a book that has always inspired you. Mindful decisions can cultivate health and happiness. Whenever you catch yourself doing something by rote, stop and ask if the task is really worth performing.

You're very good at collecting and maintaining resources. Sharing a portion of your earnings will be spiritually gratifying. Although you work hard, you must admit that a portion of your success has come through sheer good fortune. The Universe has been generous to you. Put a little back by helping those who are not in a position to help themselves. Your humanitarian, caring and charitable approach to life will have an impact and be a shining example to others to follow your lead.

Be patient achieving your goals. You're a visionary who wants to move ahead at the speed of light. Unfortunately, the powers that be tend to move very slowly. You'll have to wait to earn their approval. Keep turning out stellar work at a regular pace. If you fail to be recognised for these contributions, look elsewhere for employment. Other companies will be eager to snap you up once you submit your CV. Don't be surprised if a bidding war for your services breaks out.

Trust your instincts and desires. Too often, you let other people set the agenda. Developing unusual interests and hobbies gives you lots of pleasure. If someone expresses disapproval for your pursuits, shrug your shoulders and laugh. You don't need anyone's permission to have fun. Do what you want to do and if it enhances and improves your day to day life then it's all well and good. Your interests don't have to involve your career. Keep these activities entirely separate from work.
