Someone's itching for a fight and emotionally you're so sensitive you'll give em one. You're impatient to get on to fresh, exciting work, but some loose ends need tying up first. This is often a familiar situation for you, because you find it easy to begin projects but have a hard time sustaining your enthusiasm. Give yourself an added push. Unfinished business has a way of coming back to haunt you. It's time that you made a final push and put these old, boring matters behind you forever.

A future plan is held up by a so-called friend who is filled with envy. This is not a good time to sign contracts or finalise deals, especially if people you know are involved. Somebody may be trying to hurry or harry you into making a decision. Fortunately, this tactic usually has the opposite effect. As a Taurean, you're not the type of person to rush into an agreement just to appease others. Perhaps you should consult a lawyer about the matters before you. Their advice could be invaluable.

Professional problems manifest if you rush into a risky situation without forethought. It's easy to lose your cool today, especially over loved ones and authority figures. Sometimes it's hard for a free spirit like you to accept how much power such people have over your life. You may decide to assert your independence as a means to show who is really boss. Be careful how you do this, however. You don't want to forever alienate folks who are actually important to you.

Avoid travel and transport unless you have plenty of time to get from A to B. Don't be hasty over your work, or an accident could ensue. Why not arrange something to look forward to this evening but try to push your anticipation to the back of your brain? There are matters and choices before you that require total concentration, even if you carry out similar tasks on a daily basis. Someone who annoys you could prick your conscience with something they say. Listen up.

Sex is at the root of all kinds of hassles as your timing is out of line with your beloved. You're not usually one to suppress your anger, but recently, you've kept your rage bottled up inside. Today might be the day you finally explode at the person or situation that's getting under your skin. Instead of courting disaster, try to get some vigorous exercise or do anything that taxes your energy to get it out of your system. That way you can approach the situation with a clear head. Yes, it's okay to raise your voice a wee bit as that's better than lashing out uncontrollably and doing irreparable damage.

Partnerships are sorely tested today as both your senses are like a tinderbox. A careless remark could get you into a heap of trouble if you're not careful. Think twice before repeating any nasty gossip to a third party. It could develop that the story is completely false. Even if this news is true, you don't want to be branded a tattletale. Keep any and all judgments to yourself right now. Later, you'll be glad you kept silent when surprising facts come to light. Remember, mum's the word!

Accident prone, that's you today so don't do anything that is reckless or puts you at risk. Financial constraints make you irritable, and undermine fun plans you made for the weekend. You have one of two choices: either refuse to give way to your nagging fears, or reschedule your appointment. Brooding over your misfortunes could drive away a potential love interest. If you're already in a relationship, take care not to snap at your beloved. Whose fault is it that the budget is so tight right now?

Love is at the centre of a passionate storm when it will all end in tears or sex. You're fairly impulsive right now, and have a tendency to rush into a relationship situation before analysing it. This could result in bruised feelings on both sides. No matter how tempting it is to reveal secrets to a new friend, keep your own counsel. You're too vulnerable right now to withstand a betrayal. Even close relatives have a way of telling tales out of school. If you need to unburden your soul, write in your diary or tell a complete utter stranger.

Fire hazards and temper tantrums sum up the day so take care on all fronts. Breaking free of stubborn hang-ups is more difficult than you think. Some habits are so deeply ingrained that you take them for granted as natural behaviour. However, if you have a friend or partner who takes issue with certain habits of yours, prepare to turn over a new leaf. Give yourself time to reform, but try to make gradual progress. Your kith and kin will appreciate your attempts, and praise you for them.

What starts off as innocent fun ends up in a drama that befits a scene from Shakespeare. A thoughtless remark could draw unfavourable attention your way; think before you speak. Knee-jerk reactions are always regrettable. Don't offer an opinion unless you're absolutely familiar with the subject at hand. Even then, you may not know all the facts with regard to a particular situation. Channel your frustrations into a creative project. There is no such thing as making a mistake when you exercise your imagination.

Financially you must keep your hand on your halfpenny and don't do anything rash. It's pretty disillusioning when a person expresses opinions that go against your moral judgements. Most of the time, you're willing to reconcile yourself to such differences, but this situation is incomparable. Take time to reflect on whether you want to maintain this relationship. There's a good chance you're better off distancing yourself from this human being. You wouldn't want their prejudices to reflect poorly on you now would you?

You're not in the best of moods and as such attract people who are even angrier so take care. A furious outburst could damage your reputation; so try to keep control under pressure. Red tape will test your resolve. If you sense people are playing with your emotions, don't rebel. Instead, try to anticipate their next move. You have terrific instincts, and can use them to outwit your opponents. It may come as a surprise to onlookers what a crafty soul you really are. Avoid contact or physical sports today.
