Aries (Mar21/Apr20) It's important to maintain realistic expectations of what your friends can and cannot do for you. Just because you're celebrating a special occasion doesn't mean a loved one will be able to drop everything and run to your side. In fact, your pal may have serious responsibilities that cut into their leisure time. If you want to do them a favour, curtail your own plans and help them with groceries, laundry, or childcare. There will be plenty of time to have fun later.
.
Taurus (Apr21/May21) Don't expect your boss to fall in line with your personal plans. A staffing problem will require you to put in extra hours at the office. You might even have to cancel an upcoming holiday. If you have to choose between a youngster's recital and a work assignment, the decision will be painful. Ultimately, you may have to err on the side of work, if only to ensure regular payment. Your young friend won't understand, and it will take some time to regain their trust.
.
Gemini (May22/Jun21) Sometimes it's more important to have practical skills than specialised knowledge. If someone offers to show you how to change a tyre or cook dinner, take them up on it. Even learning a few words of a foreign language can come in handy. Repairing a broken piece of furniture will save you lots of money. These days, we need to learn how to make existing resources stretch further. Throwing things away in an indiscriminate manner is just wasteful.
.
Cancer (Jun22/Jul23) You won't have the resources to finance a creative project, which is a real disappointment. Don't worry. You will be able to launch this project in the near future, when your finances improve. In the meantime, focus on mending a rift between you and a loved one. The two of you said hurtful things. Find a way to express your feelings without being so destructive. It's more important to resolve your problems than score points off one another.
.
Leo (Jul24/Aug23) Be fair when making demands of a friend or lover. Although you're undergoing a difficult time, your partner has their own troubles. Take this opportunity to enquire after their health and well being. You may be shocked to discover your beloved has been harbouring a painful secret. Take this opportunity to join forces and fight your enemies. You'll feel far less despondent when you form an alliance. Clearing your work space of clutter will make you a lot more productive and efficient.
.
Virgo (Aug24/Sep22) A mysterious ailment makes you worried and you can't seem to find the source of this problem. Instead of dwelling on your aches and pains, divert your attention to a pleasant activity. Working with your hands can be engrossing. Get your hands dirty with paint, clay, wood or material. Nothing takes you out of your body than exercising your imagination. Meantime, schedule a thorough examination with your doctor for next week, when the problem will be detected with relative ease.
.
Libra (Sep23/Oct22) You're sorely tempted to sit back and have a good time while everybody else toils away. Resist this temptation, or you'll make some powerful enemies. Everybody is expected to work now, even if it means cancelling personal plans. Jobs are too scarce to risk getting fired. Besides, you're integral to the team's success. If you don't perform your tasks, the whole endeavour will suffer. Dispatch your duties as quickly and efficiently as you can. With luck, you might have some free time at the end of the day.
.
Scorpio (Oct23/Nov22) Just because your family holds certain principles doesn't mean everyone else has to share them. In fact, you could learn some valuable lessons by adopting other people's beliefs. It's all a matter of perspective. Yes, it's admirable that you hold your kin in such high esteem. Until you're able to view them objectively your relatives will seem more like idols than human beings, and that's not healthy for anyone. An over emotional boss will drive you crazy with their childish outbursts.
.
Sagittarius (Nov23/Dec22) It will be difficult to discover what is wrong with an appliance or car. Wait until next week to bring this device in for repairs, or you'll be throwing good money after bad. Fortunately, a wealthy friend will be able to lend you one of their extras. Don't look this gift horse in the mouth. You'll have to move quickly to get a promotion. The competition is fierce. Fortunately, your skills and efficiency will put you at the top of the pile of candidates.
.
Capricorn (Dec23/Jan20) Money has been coming in at a pretty good rate, but that doesn't mean you should be careless about spending. Resist the urge to buy a beautiful luxury item. This purchase will end up costing you even more money than you thought. Repairs, upkeep, and storage will put a serious dent in your budget. Keep your hard earned cash in the bank, where it will grow and multiply. If you have some outstanding debts, pay them off now, while you are able.
.
Aquarius (Jan21/Feb19) Looking at life through rose coloured glasses will lead to a great disappointment. A youngster who has been struggling at school needs practical help, not just pep talks. If they are being bullied, you need to demonstrate some self defence moves or their problem will become utterly intolerable. A powerful bureaucrat will speed up an insurance or inheritance payment. Put this money into a savings fund. Having a nest egg will give you an added measure of independence.
.
Pisces (Feb20/Mar20) Don't make assumptions about a colleague's motives. It may seem like they are plotting against you, but the truth is quite different. They're just worried about your unorthodox methods and are taking extra steps to ensure a job will be finished before its deadline. You resent these precautions, because they make you look irresponsible and frivolous. Having a heart to heart talk with your colleague can clear the air. Take them for a coffee and explain how you feel.
