Disappointing news will hit some members of the family harder than it does others. You realise they're feeling upset and dismayed, but if someone can't snap out of the dark mood they are in, you may have to seek different company. You would rather be somewhere less tense and more harmonious.
You're so wrapped up in private concerns and responsibilities that it might appear to some as if your communication skills are lacking. You aren't deliberately ignoring anyone. It's just that you have your focus elsewhere. Besides, you have no patience with a sulking friend who recently entered a competition and didn't win.
Within the family, relationship resentments are starting to surface. These must be faced and you will understand that if someone is upset about something, you can't ignore their feelings. You sense there will be some disagreements ahead but with tact and masses of patience, an argument can be avoided.
A young relative will receive a number of exciting offers. They have a lot to think about. Excitement could put them a little off their chosen course and they may need a small nudge in the right direction. Remind them of their original goal. Conversely, if you have taken up a difficult challenge, don't allow pride to get in the way when others try to help.
Some people don't seem to appreciate all the work you've been doing. You're tempted to give up on some jobs, but this could be a waste of all you have accomplished so far. Even if you're secretly angry for not getting the help that had been promised, continue giving important matters the time they need for them to prosper.
A text message from a friend or relative, although politely worded, will sound more like a command than a request. You are being expected to drop what you are doing to help them out. When they expect and what you do will be two different things as you realise they are starting to take your kindness for granted.
A reunion with old friends will make this a memorable time. Someone in the family has good news to share and this could lead to a small celebration. Risky ventures attract but is it sensible to show your interest? Recognise a fly by night scheme for what it is and when it comes to new work offers, be sensible.
It could be that you've been spending too much time with the same people and this reflects the fact that relationships are starting to get a bit stale. A change of scenery is what you need and not so much for health reasons. It is more to avoid someone you aren't getting on very well with.
Prepare to have to give a legal or financial matter your undivided attention. You need to get this over with, as the sooner it is dealt with, the fewer problems you are likely to encounter in time to come. Seek professional advice before putting your name to a long-term contract.
Discussions may not go as well as you were expecting. There are some ideas some people have doubts about when you had expected everyone to support plans being made. Encourage others to share their concerns rather than keep them to themselves. This is the only way a compromise will be found.
There is work to be done. The absence of a senior colleague is no excuse to shirk responsibilities. Spending time twiddling your thumbs will only be regretted in a few days' time when you may have to give a reason why some jobs have not been completed as expected.
It would be better to cooperate than to keep on insisting you do things our own way. A relationship will make no progress unless one of you changes. That someone may have to be you. You've made many excuses to avoid finishing a task you have grown bored with but in doing this you are also letting someone down.
