Aries (Mar21/Apr20) Using power for personal gain will tarnish your reputation. It's far better to follow the rules like everybody else. That way, when you're forced to make unpopular decisions, they will be accepted more readily. Try not to be too heavy handed with a sensitive relative. As far as you're concerned, coddling this family member is only compounding their problems. Still, exerting pressure on them will have disastrous results. Continue taking a soft approach.
.
Taurus (Apr21/May21) You will have to cancel plans for the sake of mundane responsibilities. Taking care of a youngster, pet, or relative should be your first priority. Try not to be resentful of your situation. You'll have an opportunity to expand your horizons in the future. Right now you have to redirect your focus to the relationships that make life worthwhile. Best of all, performing this duty will heal an old emotional wound that was inflicted on you as a child.
.
Gemini (May22/Jun21) A sexual relationship is starting to cloud your judgement. You have to enforce a temporary separation, just in the interests of clearing your head. In general, you are a pretty logical person. But when a lover manages to conjure your sensual side, you lose all sight of reason. Ask a respected friend for advice regarding this relationship. They have experience of this kind of intense love affair, and will teach you strategies for putting it in perspective.
.
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) Beware of making too many sacrifices for someone close. Although your desire to make your friend happy is admirable, it is costing you a packet. Put your own needs first for once, particularly as regards your appearance. Instead of spending money on a costly gift for your amour, invest in your own pleasure. You've never been comfortable spending money on yourself, but you will once you get some practice.
.
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) Don't insist everything is done your way; an obsession with ritual will drive a wedge between you and a potential ally. Give your instructions, and then let your colleague work in peace. Don't micromanage their efforts. Only offer advice if you are asked. This will be difficult at first, but in time, you will be grateful for the extra leisure time this approach affords. Deep down inside, you're tired of bearing the weight of the world on your shoulders.
.
Virgo (Aug24/Sep23) It's time to put away childish things for the sake of the group. Yes, you want nothing more than to abandon yourself to pleasure. Unfortunately, friends who have helped you in the past need you. Your organisational skills will be instrumental in a successful move. Alternatively, you may be asked to plan a big surprise party. Whatever the task, you should accept it with grace. The sooner you come to terms with your revised plans, the better.
.
Libra (Sep24/Oct23) Sometimes you are too sensitive to other people's feelings. Right now, you have to move forward with your plans, even if they inconvenience others. Trying to please everybody all the time will just make you miserable. If your boss asks you to work over the weekend or miss a youngster's recital, refuse. You're always bending over backwards to accommodate your superiors. This time around, you have to satisfy yourself.
.
Scorpio (Oct24/Nov22) Flattery will get you nowhere with a teacher or artisan. The only thing that will turn the tide in your favour is old fashioned hard work. You must put your ideas aside for the sake of learning something new. At first, it will be a struggle to learn a complicated skill. You'll feel awkward and stupid. Don't give up. If you stick to your guns, you'll soon get the hang of things, and earn the respect of your superiors.
.
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec21) You must take practical steps towards protecting your wealth. In this economy, you can't afford to take any source of income for granted. Update your skills in case you have to find another job. If you do so now, while you're comfortable, you'll save yourself a lot of worry in the future. This is a wonderful time to make a long range plan. Switching career paths isn't the craziest ideas. Find a way to make money by bringing comfort and beauty into the world.
.
Capricorn (Dec22/Jan20) No matter how hard you try, you won't be able to convert a loved one. The two of you will either have to respect each other's differences or part ways altogether. There are several good indications you can weather this storm, but you will have to practice more restraint. Bite your tongue every time you're tempted to give a lecture. The more laid back you are, the easier it will be to forge a long, happy life together.
.
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Keep your resentment a secret, or it will be impossible to get cooperation. Everybody knows you are more talented and capable than the rest of the team. Still, that will not earn you any time off. On the contrary, you will be asked to do more than your fair share. Although this situation is totally unfair, you should endure it a little while longer. When people see the results of your labour, you'll receive several impressive job offers.
.
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Too often, you give friends undue influence over your decisions. Once again, you are being pressured to do something against your interest. Instead of giving in to popular opinion, stand firm. Devote your time to an attentive lover who makes you feel wonderful. If the two of you have to sneak off to a secluded hideaway, so be it. One of your friends will try to lay a guilt trip on you for skipping an important event. Don't take it too much to heart.
