Arguments over joint finances will erupt. You're tired of spending your hard-earned cash to cover someone else's debts.

Working without recognition has been tiresome. You will have to perform a few more tasks before moving on to greener pastures. Be good to yourself throughout this time of trial.

Rather than obsessing over your appearance, you'll turn your attention inward. Devoting more time to artistic pursuits will be a welcome change. Your restless energy will be replaced by contentment.

Hidden resentments are coming to the surface. You're tired of being forced to work hard with no reward. If there's no room to advance at your current employer, look for a job at a rival company.

Pursuing a more lucrative line of work is possible. You've been blessed with a deep curiosity for life. Developing a passion for an emerging industry will be easy. It's simply a matter of doing some research.

Your blunt approach can be alienating. Although it sometimes helps you cut out the red tape, it can also cultivate enemies. If you want to promote an agenda, go gently. Approach potential investors in a friendly way. Learn about their likes and dislikes. Take an interest in their families. Let them know what makes you tick. After you've established some friendships, you can broach the subject of business. It's easy to get funding when people feel they really know you.

It's fine to have lofty dreams, but you must have a practical plan to realise them. Resist the temptation to build castles in the air when you could be working. Set a series of manageable deadlines. One step will quickly follow another. Before you know it, you'll have achieved everything you desired. Colleagues may be jealous of your progress. That's because they haven't seen all the thought and hard work that went into this enterprise. You make challenges look effortless.

It is taking longer to reach a goal than you expected. Don't give up. Slowing your pace can be therapeutic. Working around the clock can take a toll on your health. Beware of eating fast food, staying up all hours and sitting behind a desk all day. Giving your body the nourishment, rest and activity it needs will lift your spirits. Suddenly, the tasks that remain before you won't seem insurmountable. You'll be able to finish them with relative ease.

It's more important to meet your own needs than win your family's approval. If you're being pressured to pursue an undesirable line of work, dig in your heels. Pour your energy into landing a job that fills you with excitement. Opportunities involving publishing, travel or higher education may be especially appealing. You need a career that involves lots of intellectual stimulation. Performing the same tasks day after day has no appeal to you. Listen to your heart; opt for adventure over predictability.
