A moment's thought could save you from saying the wrong thing to someone you don't want to upset. At all times today, think before you speak. Just as if you are tempted to act on impulse, stop and think twice about it. If a partner is pestering you to make a joint long term commitment you're not ready for, don't agree just to keep them happy.

If you are single, lonely and looking for love you should be enjoying plenty of attention today. In fact you could be spoilt for choice when more than one romantic invitation could come your way. Don't tie yourself down too quickly. Give yourself the chance to get to know new people who are stepping into your life before you decide who you want to be with over the months ahead.

You are strongly determined to follow your impulses now. Possibly because you feel it is time to let someone know they can't always call the tune. Allowing a friend or colleague to get away with dictating to you in the past may have led to them constantly ordering you about now. To break the cycle you need to let others see you have a mind of your own and cannot be manipulated. You can avoid an ugly scene by being tactful!

Don't be too quick to conflict with the ideas other people put forward today. Are you jumping to conclusions? The thought may occur to you later that you didn't at first understand all implications. Equally you should give yourself the chance to consider every angle before committing yourself in any way to new ideas. You need to weigh up whether the inconveniences outweigh the benefits.

Check finances: are you keeping up regular payments and obligations? There may be an invoice or demand you've recently overlooked and charges could accrue if you don't settle this now. Whether it's a parking ticket, credit card bill or a legal financial settlement, sort this out now while you're thinking about it. Ignoring your financial obligations could cause loss or enmity.

Discuss matters in a calm and considered way to find the best way to deal with a problem. Someone might seem to be thoroughly disagreeable but you will find a way to get them to listen to you. Hinting you might withdraw your support or pull out of joint arrangements is one way to get others to sit up and take notice. You find it easy to keep ahead of your competitors now.

Your single minded determination to fulfil goals independent of anyone else remains strongly apparent. You want to prove to yourself and others you are capable of achieving your aims on your own. All you have to do to ensure this is to stay channelled and don't overtax your strength. Anyone who tries to discourage you will soon regret it.

You might draw on your leadership qualities in situations where others seem to have gone off course. People will be glad to follow your lead and they will rely on you to get them back on the right track. Your plans and ideas seem far better than anything anyone else comes up with. Today, no one can better your suggestions; in fact no one seems to want to disagree with you at all!

You might get the chance to use your professional skills in a personal situation. Or you may tackle a job in a new and more imaginative way. Any extra effort made today will be well rewarded. You will have strong support for programs you suggest to improve working efficiency. Pleasing agreements are reached due to friendly relationships between employees and management.

Patience will be needed when arrangements are altered at the last minute. As it so happens you might enjoy the changes taking place today. Travel with or because of friends is a possibility. Be prepared to adapt to whatever occurs now. Useful new arrangements and understandings will be reached with those you've not been getting on well with lately. A journey will be rewarding.

Any efforts you make now to put your finances onto a secure footing will pay off in the future. It might take some time before investments show signs of bearing fruit but you are willing to wait. This is a good time to put in some background investigation if there is something you want to find out more about. You need to avoid anything carrying a high risk factor.

You dream of finding contentment and happiness in romance. To make this dream come true you need to nurture your closest relationships. Let all the warm and wonderful feelings you have for someone show in your words and actions. Don't hold back from showing your emotions. Even a long term friend will respond positively to words from the heart.
