An encouraging aspect to the day is the chance you get to make a good impression on superiors now. Keep your mind on your work; there's no time to daydream. Stay serious and practical. People are so glad of your contribution that soon everyone will be publicising your abilities. This in turn could lead to new offers coming your way. Avoid anything illicit or underhand later in the day.

While you're feeling so friendly and versatile it's a good time to get your point across. If there's anything important to deal with, do it now. It won't be as easy to express thoughts and feelings later in the week. Your confidence glows and you're able to persuade without pushing too hard. To this effect, you should be pleased with the results of all your efforts.

You're faced with extra duties and because there's so much going on you sometimes don't know where you are. Demands come from all four corners. You're standing in the middle wondering which way to turn. Don't be rushed or panicked into action. Pause a wee while. Stay relaxed and calm and consider what your next move should be. Tact and diplomacy is needed in business dealings now.

Don't let personal preferences interfere with what should be a joint decision. Before going ahead with a new idea, you need to talk it over with your partner, other members of your family or anyone else who might be involved. People will feel left out if you don't keep them in the picture. Also, if you bring everyone up to up to date it won't come as a surprise to them when later in the week you put your plans into action.

Someone is trying to attract your attention in subtle ways, haven't you noticed? An associate, friend, business acquaintance or someone who'd like to be a part of your life is trying to catch your eye. They've something they'd like to discuss in private. Even if you aren't keen to remove yourself from a situation you're enjoying, it's worth the effort. Giving someone a few minutes of your time could give you something exceptional to consider.

Work and routine matters go remarkably smoothly. Take advantage of this while you can but don't take anything for granted. Later in the week problems could arise when you least expect it. Or someone you start to rely on will let you down. You might seriously consider making changes to do with your job and you will find the courage and confidence needed to instigate these. In the long run this should bring improvements into your life.

Your boss or a colleague might break some news to you that takes you completely by surprise. This could also cause something of an argument. Deceptive trends demand extreme care in relationships today. Contentious issues aren't easy to resolve and there's a need to talk things over calmly and rationally. Keep emotions under control and be prepared to make a compromise.

You might be pleased with the way you have achieved a balance between family life and career. Currently you have firm ideas about how you want your job to progress and you're finding satisfying ways to spend your leisure hours. Life is going the way you want it to and you won't have any shortage of confidence. Even so it's never a good idea to get too complacent!

In the midst of all your work demands, everyday dealings and relationships a communication evokes strong emotions. News that gives someone else an excuse to celebrate leaves you ambivalent. Feelings aren't easy to explain and you're inclined to take a step back to get emotions under control. You're pleased someone's about to make an exciting new move but it's going to make a big difference to your life as you know it.

You might put some time into long term concerns but don't let yourself forget more immediate matters. Concerns that may seem trivial to you could be of huge importance to others. Career and domestic responsibilities are starting to weigh you down. If you're concerned about a legal or financial delay, deal with it now or it could frustrate you even more over the days ahead.

Physically you might believe you've completely run out of energy yet the reverse could be said of your mental powers. Your mind is in overdrive as you think over activities of the past week and consider new possibilities for the future. You're always alert for new opportunities but there are some offers about to come your way which may cause more problems than pleasure if you go ahead with them.

Because you soak up other peoples' emotions like a sponge, you're better off working on your own today. Anyway, you will get on faster without too much interference from others. Communications aren't at their best. You might allow emotion to interfere with your decision making and others will take advantage of your sensitivity. Of course you like to please people but does this have to be at the expense of your own happiness?
