You may be rather preoccupied with money matters, resenting that you can't afford luxuries. It may seem certain friends enjoy lavish lifestyles while you're still struggling along. Rather than letting jealousy get the better of you, try putting your own situation into perspective. What blessings do you enjoy that money can't buy? Are you really so certain your wealthy friends are happy? If you really want to attain wealth, set three practical goals.
It's time to express your true thoughts about controversial subjects. Normally, you prefer to keep silent about such matters, but today you're compelled to speak out. The shock of your statements could reverberate throughout your work environment. Don't be surprised if your reputation takes some hits today. In the final analysis, however, you will be glad you spoke your mind when others remained silent.
Pouring out your heart to a trusted confidante is a good way of relieving stress. Right now, it seems like all of your principles are being challenged in one form or another. Having a private conversation will help you release some of the emotional turmoil that's been churning inside. You may want to prepare a defence against those who ridicule your beliefs. This will make you feel more empowered and self-assured.
An emotional get-together with friends reinforces what things are really meaningful to you. Relationships are right at the top of your list. If you haven't been spending enough time with your nearest and dearest, arrange to do so. If that means pulling back from petty obligations, so be it. Joint finances could be a source of contention. Don't outlay any money until you've talked with the poeple who will be impacted by your spending decisions.
Making an impassioned speech in public may be intimidating for some people, but not you. You're more than willing to face off with a foresworn enemy. Venting your anger and frustration at this person could prove an emotional catharsis. Take care not to inflict personal injury, however. Issuing petty insults will only damage your reputation. Instead of assassinating this person's character, try to address their behaviour. You have more supporters than your realise.
Certain cultural trends make you very emotional right now; you're very concerned about the future. Rather than throwing up your hands in disgust, engage your intellect. Ask your librarian for book recommendations on a pertinent issue. The more you read, the better able you will be to sort out your thoughts and feelings on this matter. If you become anxious, get some exercise. Physical activity is a great way to relieve stress.
You've been undergoing emotional changes recently, which is hard for an intellectual person like you. It's much easier for you to think things through rather than feel them out. Given your present circumstances, however, you may be forced to cope with depression, anger, or sadness. Resist the urge to thrust these sentiments aside in favour of work. Until you experience them completely, these emotions will continue to haunt you.
It's impossible to rationalise a partner's bad behaviour, so don't even try. You're an idealist when it comes to your loved ones, so it's especially hard for you to admit when a friend, relative, or lover has done wrong. The disappointment you feel may create tension at home. Have a heart-to-heart talk with the person in question. Pretending you aren't hurt or offended will cause irreparable damage to your relationship.
Health issues may be a concern and it feels like you've reached a crossroads. Perhaps you have to avoid a physical activity you've always enjoyed. Maybe you've gained more weight than makes you feel comfortable. It's even possible you have to radically change your diet. Whatever the truth of the situation, let it lead you to a happier, healthier lifestyle. You can't put a price tag on well-being.
You're in an extremely creative mind frame right now, which helps you to resolve personal problems. Pouring your frustrations into an art project can be gratifying. A lack of finances may be holding you back from taking a desired path. By letting your imagination run wild, you can find a way to fund your plan without going broke. Stop trying to earn the money yourself and open your heart to good fortune and lucky breaks.
An angry standoff with family members could disrupt your entire day. You're tired of being forced into a mould that doesn't fit your personality. By voicing your opposition to a collective plan, you'll show everyone you can't be controlled. On one hand, you'll feel vindicated, but on the other, you'll feel alienated. If you need a little support, reach out to sympathetic friends who have been through similar disputes.
A letter or telephone call could cause conflicting emotions, but that's not an unusual experience for you. A contradictory person like you is used to feeling two ways about a particular issue. Your first instinct may be to retreat to a safe, quiet place, where you won't have to discuss these matters. Feel free to indulge this impulse, but realise that you will have to enter into a tense dialogue before the day is over.
