This is not a good day to venture into unfamiliar territory, no matter how tempting the prospect. You're better off focusing on domestic concerns. Relatives need your encouragement to move through a difficult situation. You've always been brave about tackling emotional problems in a direct fashion. As far as you're concerned, you'd rather work through heartbreak as fast as possible, rather than let it fester. The word repression cannot be found in your personal dictionary!

Behind-the-scenes power struggles are draining you of valuable creative energy. It may be better to leave this situation than to endure it for the sake of pride. Have a serious talk with a nurturing friend who understands your pain. Together, you can find a way to salvage any money or relationships that remain available and although the prospect of making a new start is scary, it's better than prolonging your suffering.

Lawsuits will turn your life upside down if you're not careful. If you really feel strongly about a particular issue, go forth with this case. You may want to consider, though, whether you'll save more money by agreeing on a settlement. That way, all of your rewards will go into your bank account, rather than to a solicitor. The chance to build a solid foundation is being presented to you. Think about the long-term future.

Ignoring health concerns is a terrible mistake; obey any warning signs your body is sending. Consulting a medical professional will take a great weight from your shoulders. It's better to know the truth behind a situation than to speculate wildly about it. Ask a supportive friend to accompany you. This person's compassion will help you through any emotional trauma you may be experiencing now. Slow down and focus on what really matters: your well-being.

You're a gambler by nature, but may want to rein in this impulse today. Tremendous losses through speculation are possible. It's best to keep your money safe in a savings account, even if an investment scheme seems like a sure thing. A romance isn't going the way you'd like, either. Instead of trying to win this person's approval, spend some quality time on your own. When is the last time you indulged in a massage?

Tremendous changes on the home front make you worry that you caused this problem. Actually, these shifts have been in the works for some time. Right now, it seems as though the world is crashing down. In a few weeks you'll see that everything will turn out for the best. Friends and support groups can be tremendously comforting right now. Don't feel as though you have to go through this alone.

Resist the urge to send highly personal information via e-mail. You never know who will intercept such messages. You're better off remaining quiet about this situation until you're able to talk with friends in a secluded setting. It's especially important to use your office computer for work only. It would be terrible if an authority figure discovered you conducting private business on company time. Colour carefully within the lines, or disaster could ensue.

Keep your valuables under lock and key today, or you will be vulnerable to theft. It's also a good idea to shred any bank documents or personal correspondence before putting it into the trash. It's better to be safe than sorry. The chance to get an advanced degree or travel for business could fall into your lap. While you may be a little nervous about venturing out of your comfort zone, you're justifiably excited, too.

Headstrong behaviour could get you in trouble with authority figures. It's better to obey the rules than challenge them right now. If you stop and think about it, you're just being asked to behave like any ordinary citizen. Being given responsibility for joint finances makes you slightly nervous but before you start complaining, try tackling these tasks. You'll be surprised at how well you do with this job.

Things that you wanted to keep secret are coming out into the open. You may be astonished to learn that a respected expert has been hiding some information of their own. Now that you're seeing a more realistic portrayal of the situation, you can start building relationships that are based on trust. Sharing responsibility is better than giving it all to one person. Afford your partner equal access to financial documents.

Trying to mould and shape your friends into another form is an exercise in futility. The fact is, you can't change them any more than they can change you. Either you must accept these differences or break away from this group entirely. Fortunately, you're daily routine provides you with some relief from these worries. By plunging yourself into work or exercise, you'll be able to burn off any stress that is accumulating.

You've worked long and hard to reach the top, but be careful. Behaving in a cocky manner will invite rivals to unseat you from your throne. It's better to take a respectful approach to people who occupy inferior positions. If you're looking for employment, don't try to impress a potential boss with superior knowledge. Your best strategy for landing this job is to present yourself as a dedicated team player.
