To break away from weekend routines you no longer enjoy, all you have to do is use your imagination. If you're ready to pull out of a long term commitment, do it sooner rather than later. In your relationships strive to find a balance between thoughtlessness and consideration. You should not, for instance, be overly mistrustful of newcomers as there may be no convincing reason for your doubts.

You might relish the chance to deal with more than one thing at a time; it should certainly stave off boredom! Someone might suggest you're taking on too much but you don't have to listen. If you instinctively feel you can cope with all you have to do, trust your instincts. Keeping busy in such a way could result in you making a number of worthwhile achievements by the end of the day.

You're ready to pull out all the stops to make family life as harmonious and as peaceful as possible. This may mean you have to pour oil on troubled waters when an older male relative seems to be going out of his way to make life difficult for everyone. It's a good time for keeping in touch with all the people you care about. You might arrange to meet up with a dear friend, this evening.

A brilliant idea could strike you at the most inopportune time, making it difficult for you to consider it more carefully. Why not write it down or tell it to a friend so you can return to it at a more appropriate moment? Routine matters bore you but sometimes you've just got to get on with what must be done. Pigeon hole new schemes and dreams for a wee while longer, until the auspices are a little brighter.

Discussions in the family could get intense as future plans are put forward and mulled over. Money is likely to be one subject for consideration with home improvement ideas a close second. A lack of feedback from close ties should not deter you from looking into the likely costs and legality of a project. If shopping this afternoon, you might make an unexpected purchase for your abode.

Nothing is likely to run to plan. No matter how hard you try to keep to a routine other people get in the way. Rather than fretting and getting worked up about it why not follow the old saying 'if you can't beat them, join them?' A visitor has news for you that may prompt you to develop ideas on improving your life style. You might spend the evening working out the details of the early stages of your plans.

Ignore what others might say or think and put some time aside to do what pleases you most. If you sense some tension between two people you're fond of, use your sense of humour and force others to do the same. For most of the time, this should help keep everyone smiling. Keep conversations on the light side. If this proves too difficult, leave others to their feuding and go out for a solitary walk instead!

Teamwork brings a great sense of achievement and your confidence and enthusiasm spreads to those around you. This results in a delightful atmosphere of collaboration and camaraderie. If you are footloose and fancy free, you won't have to go far to find romance. A lively social scene and a number of appealing invitations should bring with them plenty of exciting possibilities.

You might take on rather more than you bargained for and some jobs you'd love to see finished and out of the way. If someone offers to lend a helping hand, don't let pride stand in the way of commonsense. To enjoy the rest of the weekend without any feelings of guilt, take them up on their offer. That way you will complete what work has to be done with time left over for relaxation.

You might feel a need to escape your usual surroundings in order to sort out a matter of a personal nature. If you don't get away from it all today, have patience.

This should greatly ease your mind of a worry you've been harbouring.

A friend or loved one might need taking out of themselves in order to get into a weekend frame of mind. You could be surprised at how swiftly they take you up on your suggestions. A financial worry may have something to do with money borrowed but not returned. Whether you are the lender or the borrower, for your own peace of mind and for the sake of a close friendship, you need to sort out this problem by the end of the day.

A friend or partner is in a changeable frame of mind and this makes it difficult for you to make plans involving them. Offer advice if you feel it's important they make a decision and stick to it. Put your views forward then let them decide for themselves what they are to do. Meanwhile, don't wait around if others continue to be capricious. New interests could inspire you to seek out a new circle of friends.
