You could do a lot to help a struggling soul on the right path. Be very diplomatic in how you offer guidance. Despite your good intentions, you could make them feel inadequate and as if everyone thinks they are a failure. Some people are more sensitive than they look.

The benevolent Universe will repay your past good work when you are least expecting it.

Financial difficulties weigh heavily on your mind. You're scraping the bottom of your financial resources in order to cover bills.
