Don’t run before you can walk when comes to anything complex or technical. Aim for steady progress rather than expecting quick results. In anything, whether trivial or crucial, make sure you finish one job or complete one task before starting on another.

You’ll only get muddled if you insist on doing something using the same method again and again if it didn’t work the first time. Only by trying a fresh approach will you make the breakthrough you need otherwise you’ll keep going round the mulberry bush.

Someone who came over as friendly on first meeting all of a sudden turns cold and distant. Rather than agonising over what you might or might not have done get the message and call a halt to a relationship that never was and can never be. Protect yourself.

Just when you believe all is going well with your world, unexpected obstacles slow you down. The trouble is, instead of being sincere, someone has been telling you the things you wanted to hear, when honesty from the start would have saved the heartache now.

Time is short to take advantage of wondrous Jupiter rays still deflecting prosperity and abundance over to you from your fellow fire sign of Aries. You have until next Tuesday only to follow your vision for the future to make more of your life. Don’t deny yourself.

It doesn’t matter how well you plan or prepare your life, be ready for last minute glitches. Technical hitches could delay communications in all vital areas. When hiring to carry out repairs or renovations only deal with reputable and reliable firms.

You’ll feel such a fool when a bargain buy turns out to be a forgery, below par or plain rubbish. What’s done is done, it’s no use crying over spilt milk but make sure you never get ripped off again. Consider reporting it to trading standards or consumer protection.

Having first been drawn into a situation that meant more to others than it did to you, the position is now reversed. Others have lost interest in something you feel wholly passionate about and you’re left to fend for yourself. There’s a lesson here somewhere.

A persistent problem turns out to be a blessing in disguise by bringing an unseen worry to light. You might be uncertain about taking matters into your own hands but do so as the experience will put you in touch with your latent leadership qualities.

You’re committed to something you wish you had never got involved in but if you look hard enough, you will find an escape route. After a narrow escape, a hard decision has to be made and that is never to agree to anything again unless you mean it.

If working jointly on a project that was your idea, you’ll hit a hitch when someone you brought in tries to take over. There’s a lot of control freakery going on and only you can decide whether you carry on as a partnership, alone or be in charge of a team.

Someone is trying to pull the wool over your eyes and the trouble is you believe everything you’re told and more. When it comes to being gullible and impressionable you hold the world record but it’s time you relinquished this unwelcome title in favour of reality.
