Some heavy work and family commitments have been keeping you busy. You hadn't realised how much time these have been taking until you stop and look back on all you have achieved. Life will start to get back on a more even keel now and it won't take long before you are back to your usual high spirits.

You've been doing your best to keep on top of everyday commitments but this is starting to wear you down. You might even get the impression that if you were on your last legs some people would still expect you to turn up and get on with it. Why not take the day off and spend it in bed?

There is talk of change and possible new career openings about to occur soon. Don't be too quick to show your interest. Let good judgement and sensibility rule and this will help you decide which of the doors now opening up for you are likely to be worth your while. There are some you might regret entering.

You're waiting for the results of a recent test or interview. No news is often good news and even you might agree this isn't a situation where you can expect instant results. Your popularity is running high. You might take advantage of this by arranging a fun get-together with friends.

Be patient if you are waiting for the results of a recent mortgage or loan application. You may have made an offer on some property and it is taking time for the vendors to get back to you. Someone close is anticipating the outcome of a job interview. You are hoping that this will pave the way for a more profitable time ahead.

If you have some time to yourself early on, use it to relax. There will be more important things expected of you later in the day. Just don't get embroiled in trivial matters that will waste your time and energy. Someone seems to think it's a good idea to try to drag you into concerns that don't interest you at all.

Thanks to your contribution, a venture that has been in the offing for some time can now be launched. The preparation you have put into this is all because of the faith you have in this being a successful project and now you've got the ball rolling, the outlook is even brighter.

If you aren't feeling as healthy as normal, don't push yourself too hard. You should be able to recover any ground lost today, later in the week. Head off to a private hideaway and turn off your mobile phone. Even just an hour or two is all that's needed to help you start feeling better.

Trust in your ability to take on a new challenge that really interests you. You can be assertive when you need to be. You have it within you to make exciting things happen. Believe in yourself. Let other people see your confidence shine and this will inspire them to believe in you too.

Your boss or a senior colleague will sum up why it is important for everyone to respect guidance that's now being put in place in the workplace. You can see the sense of following the advice of a committee of experts but there are others around you who will complain.

A friend's health is improving after a long illness, you will be pleased to hear. If an agreement isn't reached regarding a financial matter, don't give up hope. Where a refund is due, you will get this money back, eventually. Expect to enjoy creative, musical and sporting pastimes whenever you get the chance to relax.

Most relationships in your life are happy and harmonious. If there have been misunderstandings, these have now been resolved. A solid foundation of rapport and understanding will give you the courage to voice ideas you would normally keep to yourself. This will add to a perpetual circle of love, laughter and harmony.
