A twist in circumstances tests your ability to be more broad-minded. Hide your true reaction when you see or hear something that you weren't prepared for. Likewise, don't jump to conclusions about anything or anyone, as time may prove that your first impressions were a few miles wildly off target.

The sheer volume of jobs you have to get through is enough to make you anxious and restless. On top of everything you are only listening to half of what you are being told and mistakes are inevitable unless you slow down, pay attention and stop panicking. Try to get some rest and sleep.

Think before you speak or an impulsive offer or donation could get you into trouble. One person's gain is someone else's loss so be sure you aren't giving away something that does not belong to you or that has value - sentimental or otherwise - to person you hadn’t even considered.

Keep suspicions to yourself as they could be unfounded, based more on imagination, even jealousy, rather than anything concrete. You see your world of love and close relationships in primary colour so all may not be exactly as it appears. Save yourself embarrassment by thinking before you act.

Pool resources if you are involved in a study or research to save yourself money and time. Other people may have already traced the information you seek and want but you won't find out unless you make your needs known and share your knowledge. It pays to advertise and go in for self publicity.

Someone forgot to warn you that they had made plans with you in mind but don’t object until you have heard their suggestions. No matter what comes your way today, take any assumptions in your stride and you will end up wishing every day was as interesting, colourful and entertaining.

Leaving the past behind is never easy but you have clung too long to a situation or relationship that is way past its sell by date. Circumstances force you to face some unpleasant truths and yet there will be relief if you accept that some dreams can never be realised as they were never meant to be.

Deal now with parts of your life that have been causing tension, upset or dissatisfaction. You are not or have not been using your personal talents or knowledge to the full, or in a constructive way. A professional advisor will give you ideas on how to break out of any rut you feel stuck in.

Your judgement is not clever at all and your intuition no more reliable because you refuse to see things for what they truly are. For this reason you must not become too self-critical as you are demanding too much from yourself and unable to recognise you have reached your limit.

Watch what you say and be careful whom you trust as secrets are bound to leak out. Someone you have always relied on might take credit for your ideas or give your plans away when you had wanted to keep a lid on them. Even walls have ears today so keep mum to conserve the element of surprise.

If you long for a wee bit of peace and quiet, you will find what you are after by sticking to home turf. Later in the day, someone is slow to see the sense of your ideas and plans but a little gentle coaxing or some plain old-fashioned bribery should do the trick and win their support.

Everyone has their off days and today you are a merchant of doom. Your lack of enthusiasm is due to an unusually cynical view of the world around you. Therefore it’s not such a good time to advise others in their affairs of the heart as you are more inclined to tell them the opposite to what they want to hear.
