You won't be discouraged when your first attempt at trying something new falls short of your expectations. You never expected it to be easy and that's why you will keep trying until you do get it right. A senior colleague will applaud you for your perseverance.

Exaggerated gestures of someone's feelings for you would only cause you embarrassment. It will be the understated gestures and simple words they chose to use that will mean the most to you. Be sure to respond immediately. In the workplace don't allow time-wasting chattering to distract you or slow you down.

An older relative needs your help. Talks with other members of your family will bring a healing quality to your relationships. You will realise that whereas you have been doing a lot for friends and for your local community you haven't been as attentive as you should have been to the needs of your family.

More than one person will be asking for your reactions to some unusual events that have recently taken place. You've been doing so much lately that you had no idea so much has been going on. You haven't been aware of any of it.

Be courteous even when you feel like giving someone a piece of your mind. A toxic neighbour or rude relative is trying to make your life difficult. As insensitive as they seem to be, if you respond with courtesy they cannot blame you for causing the problem.

The competition is hot but this will not prevent you from going after what you want. An opportunity to promote your agenda is one you do not intend to miss out on. Your chances of success are high as long as you remain focused on your target.

You've always been the person your friends and colleagues turn to when they need someone to help sort out their arguments. This would be a good time to encourage a team to create a more harmonious working environment. When it comes to work and community affairs, you have a number of options to choose from.

Time devoted purely towards nurturing friendships both old and new will be time well spent even if this will not become apparent until sometime in the future. Someone will try to persuade you to splash out on an item you don't need. Follow your own instincts when it comes to spending.

An investigation is ongoing. A lot will be made about the speed in which this has been brought about and this brings reassurance to those affected that professionals are acting in a responsible and conscientious way. Results should be announced very soon.

You're tired of putting other people's needs before your own. A strange and unexpected occurrence will cause you to want to pause and reflect on what it is that makes life meaningful to you. You will want to spend more time in the future on things that make you happy.

Someone still owes you money they have forgotten they borrowed. It was not a gift. They need to be reminded of this. Money from a legal settlement is delayed. Friction is felt whenever money is discussed. Resolving a matter relating to the past will ease this tension.

If you've been separated from someone special for too long, they are about to be brought back into your life. It will suit your mood to keep the hours of the day and evening on the quiet side. If you can stay fairly close to your home or within familiar surroundings you will enjoy most contentment.
