Friends have no shortage of creative energy and bright ideas even if you're feeling somewhat deflated today. All kinds of complications are likely to build up if you allow your despondency to influence your thinking and you refuse to listen to a loved one's suggestions. It could be you need more time to yourself to rest and relax. As much as you enjoy other people's company, some solitude can also do you good!

Don't rest on your laurels as far as everyday commitments and routines are concerned. Focus on tying up the loose ends of jobs that have overshot the time allotted to them. Something could happen later in the day which seems likely to generate jealousy within a friendship. If another person's resentment is unwarranted and childish, the best thing you can do is, ignore it!

What you're learning now is the more time you put into your endeavours; the more other people respect you. It takes effort and resources to climb up that ladder to reach the step you've got your eyes on. Put time into this but don't rush. Be careful not to miss a step and slip or you could find yourself in a rapid free fall! These next few days think about taking only calculated risks and put careful thought into all long term decisions.

No one forces you to be happy or sad, your mood is your own choice; smile and the world will smile with you. Even if you woke up this morning feeling strangely dismal and downcast, it could change during the course of the day. Choose to spend time with cheerful friends and pick out jobs to do that you actually enjoy. If you feel as if you've recently made a mistake, stop blaming the past for your present mood and failures. A change of perspective will cheer up your world.

Chances are you will be mixing with those who are linked with you in a professional or social sense. Your educated opinions on matters on subjects that are of interest to others will help keep the conversation flowing. Without a doubt, a discussion which ensues will certainly be a meaningful and memorable one. You might be reminded of a glimmer of an idea you had earlier in the year and you will want to work on this further.

Startling discoveries could be made if you take the chance to see things through someone else's eyes. A recent event you found puzzling can be explained once you've pondered on it for a wee while. The positive outcome of taking another person's words seriously is this will leave you feeling there is hope for the future. You find it easier now to reach agreements with other parties in negotiations and other contractual discussions.

A partner is most intimately trying to bring home to you the fact that it's time your relationship was moved up another level. Your initial reluctance to make any changes may start to dissolve as you reconsider your overall position in this relationship. A casual affair is no longer enough and a long term commitment might suddenly sound like a good idea. A heart to heart will lead to an increase of trust and affection between you.

Relatives and family members you haven't seen for ages will be delighted by a visit. If you have no intention of going out today, a plan to provide home entertainment for a select group of friends will be well received. An impromptu get together within your own four walls will be enjoyed by all even if for some reason, the cost of it all turns out to be a good deal higher than you expected!

You won't be able to overlook it, in fact you may never forget it if someone you trust betrays you. Frustration and anger will heal with time but the hurt is something else. Trust once lost takes a very long time, if ever, to regain. In the ordinary course of events you would have had complete faith in a friend or loved one's promises. Now they've let you down, you wonder whether you can ever rely on them again.

It is easier for you to accept today's developments as they happen because you had no preconceived expectations. Others might seem disappointed because they'd anticipated something different or they were led to believe an event was going to be a lot more thrilling than it was. Still, you're quite happy with what's going on and if you're single, you might find yourself one stage further towards developing a romantic association.

If you really want a relationship to work you couldn't choose a better day to spill out your deepest feelings. A partner knows you better than you think! They know exactly what buttons to push to make you react they way they want you to! If you're single, an intense love affair could start and even end today. You might also hear some splendid money news and this rather strangely could come from a relative.

You might agree to making some changes with the hope and happy anticipation of finding something new. Trying new paths could take you closer to goals you set yourself at the start of the year. Your intuition is high and you will be able to follow hunches with every chance of success. There may be new responsibilities to shoulder soon; these you will accept gladly. A period of hard work is necessary for the laying of some exciting long term plans.
