Venus's unfavourable ray to Saturn causes a distance between you and the one you love; try not to be jealous or resentment of folk you know. The fact is, there's more than enough wealth to go around. Your income may start picking up once you let go of your envy. A heart filled with love is the most powerful money magnet known.

A bureaucrat or boss isn't willing to give you the credit you deserve; maybe they feel threatened by you. Resist the urge to get into a power struggle. You're better off seeking opportunity elsewhere. In time, you will see that this was the nudge you needed to realise a higher level of success. You deserve to be appreciated.

Paranoia prevents you from understanding someone’s true motives; stop looking for evidence that this person is out to get you. The fact is, you need to improve your standards. Try not to let your ego get in the way of accepting constructive criticisms. You've a long way to go, but your dedication will pay off.

Someone tries to commit emotional blackmail; don't give in to their threats, no matter how much they scare you. What this person really wants is to exert control over you. Once they see that their words and actions are futile, they'll focus their attention elsewhere. Hold your head high in the meantime.

Idealising a loved one will only set you up for disappointment; stop letting your feelings get in the way of evaluating their behaviour. If it looks like a skunk and smells like a skunk, there's a very good chance it is a skunk. If you're having a hard time getting over this person, you may want to go away over Hogmanay.

Although you long to be far away from where you are, circumstances won't allow you to do so; you've probably made yourself indispensable. The best way to reverse this trend is to train somebody to perform your work. This may feel scary at first, but it's necessary if you're going to enjoy the time off you so richly deserve.

It's entirely possible that you've misread someone’s interest as sexual instead of mercenary. Be very careful about forming any kind of relationship with this person. Chances are, they are an opportunist of the sneakiest kind. You can avoid trouble by surrounding yourself with friends who have good instincts and no axe to grind.

An intimate relationship may be taking a serious toll on your emotional or psychological health; don’t let anyone push you around. The more passive you are, the less respect your partner will have for you. Fortunately, you're a master of reversing power dynamics. Dig down deep and give this character a taste of their own medicine.

Communications with a friend or colleague may be confused right now; don't take anything at face value. If frustration starts to mount, dedicate time and effort towards realising a new creative goal. Your subconscious has a wealth of material in store. Maybe this is a sign that you should enter another career or job.

Your financial acumen goes right out the window after meeting a dazzling adventurer; resist the urge to lavish this person with gifts. It may develop that this person is not as constant in their affections as you thought. You can protect your heart by letting any relationship unfold gradually. Consider yourself warned!

Stop beating yourself up for a mistake made in your youth or when you were emotionally vulnerable; the way to make amends is to move on and do better. Someone who enjoys rubbing your nose in this error should be put in their place: you’re only human. Speak up in your own defence; you'll feel so much better when you do.

Your inability to connect with a person is the result of an unyielding attitude; stop harping on your philosophical differences. Your viewpoint isn't the only valid one: by agreeing to disagree, your relationship will finally blossom. Who knows? In the end, you may actually see the value in their liberal outlook.
