Home is a welcome haven from the pressures of public life. You're tired of trying to be perfect. Being able to shut the door on the world and let down your guard comes as a tremendous relief. Let your relatives pamper and pet you. After being waited on, you'll feel much better prepared to deal with public life. You won't feel so resentful every time your boss interrupts your work flow or a friend asks for help. If you've been yearning for a day off, take one.

You're happiest when exercising your brain. Signing up for a challenging course is strongly advised. You will have to make some adjustments to your schedule to attend this class. Do it; you deserve an opportunity to study with a talented teacher. Spending less time at home will require a child or loving partner to become more independent. This will be beneficial for everyone involved. By demonstrating you have faith in your loved one's abilities, they'll become more confident. You won't have to perform simple tasks they've neglected to master.

Being able to increase your income gives you a feeling of security. It's time to ask for a raise. If your boss isn't able to pay what you are worth, look elsewhere for employment. Resist the temptation to join a start-up company. You'll fare much better with an employer who has a long track record of success. It will be necessary to start at the bottom, which could feel humbling. There will be plenty of room for growth, development and future promotion at this organisation.

You're highly sensitive, making it a good time to strengthen close relationships and develop creative projects. Stay away from people and situations that get on your nerves. Turn your back on the dark and move towards the light. Someone in a position of authority may be especially demanding. It's best to establish firm boundaries here; make it clear you will not respond to unreasonable requests. Similarly, you should stand your ground with a pushy individual who ignores your feelings.

Retreating from public view will be therapeutic. Stop feeling pressured to be on call for everyone at all times. Catch up on your reading, listen to music or watch a movie. When you replenish your emotional reserves, it becomes much easier to carry out chores and meet responsibilities. An unreasonable friend will clamour for attention. Instead of answering their texts and voicemails, turn off your phone. Turn your attention inward. It's time for your nearest and dearest to become more self-reliant.

Working with a group to promote the common good will be rewarding. It's a relief to take the focus off your own problems. You'll also enjoy collaborating with creative people who supplement your own talent. At times, you may not feel very confident about your own abilities. Push your fears aside and do the best you can. When you encounter difficulty, your colleagues will come forward to show you the ropes. Take this opportunity to expand your skill set.

You could make a terrific impact at work. The key is to anticipate people's needs. If you sense customers or colleagues are irritated by a policy, find out exactly what bothers them. Finding a way to resolve this issue will dramatically improve business. Nothing builds brand loyalty like being responsive. When people see you care about their comfort, they'll return to your establishment again and again. Fixing even minor problems can have major ramifications.

You're ready to change the status quo. Raising the bar for your own performance will take time, work and dedication. It will be necessary to expand your knowledge with specialised training. Studying with a seasoned teacher will be uplifting. Don't be afraid to push yourself harder than ever before. These classes will be expensive; treat them as an investment in your long term professional success. When people see how much progress you've made, you'll be given much better assignments.

Let down your defences with someone who has always been loyal. By admitting your hopes, dreams and fears to this friend, you'll gain some forward momentum. You're tired of being held back by limited thinking and irrational fear. Get into the habit of making a gratitude list. When you focus on what is going well in your life, problems will diminish. Hold your loved one accountable to being more positive. Thank them for challenging you whenever you become pessimistic or irritable.

You're extremely popular, being able to fit in with virtually any crowd. People are gratified by your attentive listening. These days, it's hard to talk to anyone without being interrupted by phone calls and text message. Put your mobile device away and fully focus on the people you encounter. This will open doors and attract exciting opportunities. A frenzied relative will try to disrupt a meeting with a dramatic announcement. Don't let them interrupt or disrupt you.

Being of service to people in need boosts your esteem. You've never fared well at companies solely motivated by making profits. You'd rather be part of an organisation that brings people practical assistance and even happiness. It may be necessary to take a pay cut while you transition to a more rewarding career. That's all right. You've never been especially materialistic, anyway. After you've landed your dream job, your financial situation will improve.

Put work on the back burner and focus on a creative venture instead. You've always been extremely artistic. Neglecting your imaginative impulses makes you unhappy. Take time out of your busy schedule to do what you love best. Writing, sewing, making furniture, baking; it doesn't matter how you express yourself, so long as you obey this impulse. Don't be surprised when you become a hot commodity on the romance market. Your allure is always heightened when you are having fun.
