An increasing need to escape from anything familiar, routine and normal is difficult to ignore. Even so if you work in a shop, office, factory, or even at home, there is work to be done. At least you can start making plans for a future holiday. Give yourself something to anticipate.

You prefer everything to be neat and tidy and in good order. If there are odds and ends that were recently put aside because you didn't have time for them, there should be no difficulty catching up on these now. Clearing up this backlog will also help you decide on your priorities for the weeks ahead.

Frustrations seem to greet you at every corner. The reason why you aren't in the mood for dealing with these is because of feeling sluggish and below par. Consider the reason for this. Have you been making too many personal sacrifices for your work? If the pressure is becoming too much to bear, talk to a senior colleague.

Misunderstandings between you and a colleague or someone in authority are giving you reason for uncertainty. You don't want to be branded a troublemaker but you are being expected to do too much while others have less of their own to do. It isn't fair that others stand to benefit more while you are doing the lion's share of the work.

You dream of all the wonderful things you could do with your cash if only you could save it. Keep on dreaming. Once everyday bills are paid there is little left for spending on luxuries. It might feel as if you're working really hard but there is little evidence, financially, to show for your efforts. One day, the situation will change.

You had some big plans for today and these had nothing to do with work and other responsibilities. Your aim was to make the most of your time to attend to a personal matter. Now you have the opportunity you may be feeling under the weather and suddenly, getting some rest will seem like a top priority.

A tax, property, insurance or financial matter will bring some cause for concern. This is the last thing you are in the mood for but to safeguard your future you need to make sure your finances are secure. A friend needs support with a career matter when they have found themselves out of their depth.

New rules in the workplace are now considered by those in charge to be a reality. Even before these were implemented you were worried about how they might impact your everyday life. If working longer hours might have an adverse effect on your health and family relationships, put your foot down and say no.

Group and community projects will be going well. People value your input. You put ideas forward with a relaxed kind of ease that makes others instantly pay attention. Your thoughts are creative and inventive but listen too, to someone who suggests approaching things from a different angle. In your enthusiasm you may have overlooked the fact there are more ways than one of doing things.

There's something restless about you even though you are trying to hide your need for activity and excitement from others. You can't seem to sit still for more than a minute and this annoys you when work demands quiet concentration. You want action, activity and to enjoy some lively company.

You aren't to blame for having got into a situation that is more challenging, confusing and demanding than you had originally expected. All you can do is cope with this to the best of your ability. A problem you need to resolve will need a practical approach. Use your common sense to deal with an unexpected dilemma.

You will be expected to take part in a fundraiser or charity project when you have supported similar events in the past. People will be very persuasive but you may not have the time. As much as you would like to help out, you have too much to do already. You can't possibly take on any more.
