Your dynamism comes out in full force; this is a fine time to rally support. People who are more intent on playing than working can really get under your skin. Rather than lashing out, try a sneakier strategy. Appeal to these people's collective vanity. When you put your mind to it, you can charm the birds down from the trees. A gentle push won't hurt, either. A diplomatic and diligent worker will prove a valuable ally.

Personal collaborations are best when both of you take an optimistic approach. If you sense your partner is in a dark mood, lighten the atmosphere with some upbeat music or whatever else uplifts them, otherwise, a cloud could gather over your own head. Clearing a workspace in your home can also help you be more efficient. Organise your life, clear out the clutter then spread out and multi-task. Roll up your sleeves!

Beware of making promises today, as events only conspire to throw your schedule off. You'd be wise to keep commitments to a minimum. Focusing on creative pursuits is a pleasant alternative to everyday jobs. Others may resent your laid-back attitude, but the fact is, you need to engage your imagination if you're going to be productive in other areas of your life. Turn a deaf ear to the sarcastic comments and throw caution to the wind.

Undertaking home improvements must be your first order of business. Luckily, the necessary funds could arrive in the nick of time. Before you get started, create a reasonable budget. This will prevent you from extravagance on frivolous purchases that you'll later regret. These projects tend to spiral out of control if you don't maintain a firm hand. Steer clear of glossy lifestyle magazines that are selling grandiose dreams at inflated prices.

Stop telling yourself that you're strong enough to endure an emotional situation alone. What you need most is the loving support of friends and family. Confess your fears to a loved one. Pouring out your feelings into a diary can also help you work through the pain and find a sense of inner peace. Your troubles may stem from a painful situation you remember from childhood. This is your chance to turn things around.

The stars give you great faith in your ability to create wealth and rely on your instincts to do so. Beware of sharing any brilliant ideas with friends, though, or you could miss a golden opportunity. You're better off keeping plans under wraps, at least until you get the necessary funding to start a business. Heated discussions with a neighbour or co-worker could undermine your confidence; steer clear of people who like to push your danger buttons.

Getting involved with a social cause can attract all sorts of attention, both positive and negative. On the one hand, people will admire the force and tenacity with which you express yourself. On the other, some may accuse you of being on an ego trip. Think twice before entering into legal agreements even if you know the person. Mixing business with pleasure often leads to misery, especially under heavy planetary influences like these.

A confident attitude could get you into trouble with an authority figure who likes to cut folks down to size. You're better off devoting your time and attention to solitary pursuits that speak to your spirituality or altruism. When you're at peace with yourself, it's much easier to endure ego trips and power plays. Keep in mind that your behaviour today will have a tremendous impact on your professional reputation. Make dignity and honour your watchwords.

You've always considered yourself an open-minded person, but that's about to change today. A stubborn hang-up or inhibition could surface when you are confronted with an ethical decision. Fortunately, a good-natured pal or supporter can help you work past this obstacle if you make a call to them. Getting involved with a group activity can also help you appreciate different ways of tackling specific jobs. If everybody approached life the same way, it would be a very boring world. Throw off the chains that make you ordinary.

You're about to inherit a desirable position from someone who is leaving your social circle. This seems very exciting, but don't go blabbing the news to the world and its wife just yet. Not all the changes that occur are necessarily positive. Your good luck may be a bitter pill for someone who has been passed over. Celebrate quietly with folks who don't have an investment in these issues or axe to grind. At times like these, it pays to be tactful.

Tense talks about your career could put a strain on an intimate relationship. Try to see the situation from your partner's viewpoint. Your plans may sound threatening to the stability of your affair. When you talk about the future, make sure it includes your mate. Ask what their hopes and dreams are, and try to integrate these ideas into your master plan. Some compromises will undoubtedly be necessary, but at least your beloved won't be left out in the cold.

You're eager for an intellectual challenge, but you must lay the cerebral foundations first. Tying up loose ends is essential before embarking on a new adventure. You don't want to get into the habit of leaving a trail of unfinished work or tasks wherever you go. A passionate encounter is a healthy way to blow off steam but will it be sexual or petulance? Fortunately, your charms are virtually irresistible. Throw a few flirtatious glances at someone who has captured your fancy and lust will win over ire.
