Housemates and loved ones may have demanded a lot of your time and attention lately. You will have given this willingly. Even so it is time now to ease yourself out of situations that could grow trying or tedious. Gently but firmly press others to start shouldering their own responsibilities. You might do this by not being around so often for them. Encourage others to make their own decisions.

Your sense of duty to others keeps you busy with hardly a moment to spare. You are kept fully on the go. It's not easy to stay in touch with situations that occur around you. The effort it takes to stay on top of it all will leave you exhausted by the end of the day. Pleasantly so! You will feel as if you have accomplished a lot; others too will have appreciated having you around.

This is a good day to make firm decisions and to put new plans and ideas into action. Leave it until next week and you won't feel as certain or confident as you do now. As well as this if you leave it too late to make the necessary enquiries and applications, you might not get the support or financial backing you need. Whatever you intend to do, get on with it now. Don't put off to tomorrow what you can do today.

While others are receptive to your ideas, bring up areas in which you could do with their support. You can safely discuss money making ideas or any thoughts you have on saving money. There is sense in your suggestions. Others will go along with you with hardly any fuss at all. Today it takes the minimum of effort to achieve the maximum results. All because of the cooperative spirit around you.

A group you are a part of is splitting into divisions; which one do you follow? You may have preferred it when everyone was part of the same unit. It is too late now to recapture the team spirit that once was. Providing you are given more time to think in diplomatic terms you will be able to choose which path is best for you. If possible delay matters until you feel more certain.

Your spirits soar today and this will have something to do with good news received or a promise someone makes to you. Today's associations and communications offer the potential of you seeing a dream come true you never thought would happen. You will show extra consideration to a sensitive friend because you are so in tune with those around you.

This is an ideal time for learning more about ways to improve your skills and natural talents. You could experience help from an unexpected source or encouragement from someone who doesn't offer their praise lightly. You will be taking a great deal of pride in your efforts. As well as doing your own thing, you will quite like the feeling independence brings.

Insist on keeping a close eye on the way money in your household is being spent. By nature you are shrewd and careful. Not just in finance but in business too. Today would be good to overhaul some of your working methods. Catch up on anything you've been neglecting in the past. New opportunities are likely soon. You will cope easier when everything in your life is organised and in order.

A disagreement over an insurance or financial matter may come to a head. Even if the dispute does not conclude entirely in your favour, you will not be surprised with the outcome. You've had enough time to prepare for what has to be. If you're shopping for a bargain, you could be pleased with what you find. At home, don't allow any teasing by a member of the family to get under your skin.

If you are in a relationship you have something to be pleased about; good news is on its way. If lately you have been neglecting the social side of life, no matter what the excuse, do something about it today. You have been busy. You've not been able to fit everything in. But if you leave it too long, others will have gone off in separate directions and you will have nothing left in common!

At last those who have been trying to push you into moves you aren't happy about now accept you won't be persuaded. Not only will they stop the constant pressure they've been putting you under but they will make it clear how much they admire your strength of character. You will have more success with jobs and joint projects as other people change their tune.

The earlier you make a start today, the more you will get done. Not because you are working all day. It is more likely your energy levels will be at their peak during the early hours of the morning. Deal with anything needing focused attention or physical effort early on. As the hours tick by, your mood swings more towards relaxation and your pace will be more leisurely. An evening at home will suit you fine!
