Colleagues are temperamental; it will take all your tact and diplomacy to keep them agreeable. You might encounter coolness among workmates or within a group you're involved in. If someone's being moody and irritable for no apparent reason it is entirely possible a private problem is on their mind. Those who don't respond to your efforts to cheer them up are obviously upset about something; leave them to their own devices.
You may have to be quite ruthlessly self sufficient and reject offers of help from others in order to get ahead. The best way to succeed today is to rely on yourself and work completely on your own. A project that's coming along can only be handled by one person; take the chance to show your boss what you can do singlehandedly. Versatility and using your creative ingenuity will also impress those who matter.
Completion of a work project gives you some sense of self gratification; some assurance you can be successful. If someone's past criticism still hurts, it won't feel half as bad now as your self esteem isn't as low. With a return to virtually normal conditions, you should take any chance that comes your way to relax and enjoy life a bit more. Invite friends to go out shopping or do something to get you out of the house.
It might seem as if someone you care for is obsessed with their work or other commitments. If they're worried about money and are trying to earn more, their obsessive behaviour is slightly justified. All the same you won't want to watch anyone work themselves so hard they end up ill and exhausted. Call a family pow-wow and discuss what can be done to balance responsibilities so no one feels responsible if and when things go slightly wrong.
Future success could come through some form of further training or taking on a job with more responsibility. Don't ever doubt your ability to handle the work being expected of you now; there is an inner strength you may not yet be aware of. At times it might seem as if nothing's ever going your way but soon everything will come together nicely and you will realise there has been a purpose to those setbacks recently encountered.
You are aiming to make your life more stable and secure and you're being sensible about it. If you've been through a complex relationship or if memories of times gone by are troubling you, these difficulties are coming to an end. If a long lasting union is your ultimate aim, there is no reason to think you will never achieve this. Your dearest wishes can be fulfilled if you stay hopeful and arrange what you have in the here and now in a common sense way.
Don't neglect your social life and your love life for the sake of your work. Force yourself to take positive steps to increase your social and outside commitments as well as working ones. Circumstances fall in such a way that you've been focusing too much on responsibility lately and not enough on relationships. You've been so immersed in your work you've not realised just how much other people have been missing you. Make it up to them now.
This is a good time to stand out from your potential rivals. If you've been invited to a business meeting, seminar or professional gathering be sure to do your research before the event. Invite friends who work at other companies along for their input. It's all happening for you now and you're at the centre of local interest. You may have reason to indulge in a modest celebration with a loved one this evening.
Social events are fun and partying puts you in touch with new people if you're single. The downside is you might find yourself gaining a few stubborn pounds during this time because there is so much temptation of a tasty kind. The healthiest way to lose weight is to watch your diet and increase your levels of activity over the weeks ahead. You can still enjoy socialising while taking care of your health.
There is honesty and openness in your current dealings. If there have been secrets and someone hasn't been upfront with you in the past, they may confess all, now. You could be surprised at what you hear and it will have taken courage for them to have coughed up what they have. Despite your shock, rather than tearing the threads that bind you, this is likely to weave stronger bonds in your relationship.
At last you get the green light for a venture you dreamed up some time ago. There's no reason why you shouldn't take on more responsibility. Even so don't exceed your personal authority by taking unnecessary risks. Do too much too quickly and setbacks are likely. Take your time and delegate so as not to take on more than you can chew and you're more likely to see positive results.
It may feel as if getting even will compensate for a momentary slip up by a partner; this will only perpetuate more of the same. Forgiveness would bring you closer. Taking umbrage will only blur the gap between you; it could even grow wider. If you need some time alone with someone in order to discuss your relationship, take it. Know your priorities and today, you would do well to concentrate on someone who holds a special corner of your heart.
