Aims can be achieved by taking a different route to the one you first intended. A short diversion will be necessary and as it turns out, you will encounter something of interest that you would not have experienced had you taken the most direct path.
Differences over the way finances should be handled is causing discord in the home. You can't seem to avoid arguments over money with in-laws and people you see every day. Someone will tell you that things will get better but you will secretly admit to yourself that you don't believe them.
A desire for greater success, money or power could blind you to the simple pleasures you already have. Be patient when things don't move as fast as you were hoping. Your faith in your partner's skills will cause you to push them into trying to make a name for themselves but is this what they are really wanting?
It's all very well having dreams for the future but nothing will happen if you don't do anything definite about it. Hopes can be turned into reality but you need something to build on. Lay firm foundations. Decide on how you will reach your aims and take one slow step at a time.
If there is someone you are hoping to impress, just be yourself. There is no need to pile on the charm or to buy expensive gifts. What you most want to know is that others respect you for who you are and not for what you can do for them.
You need to give more attention to your own concerns. This will mean having to say no when a friend or colleague asks for your continued support. It is because of all the help you have already given them that your own responsibilities have been neglected.
You cannot and should not let anyone dictate to you or make decisions for you. You will listen to views being expressed but you won't necessarily agree to them. You may have to point out to someone that since you were polite enough to consider their suggestions you should be allowed to express your views, too.
Someone who is not used to receiving help will seem reluctant to accept yours. Intuitively, you sense they need your support and that's why you won't let them push you away. Once they get over the shock of having someone who cares, their gratitude will be immense.
You can sense others around you are panicking about an issue that crops up today even if they don't outwardly show it. Doing nothing will get them nowhere. A calm and collected approach is what's needed to ensure you do get to the place you are supposed to be.
Having to cope with a powerful competitor is starting to get you down. You might feel you hadn't prepared yourself well for this kind of adversity. Take a step back and gather more information. Once you've looked at the situation from a different perspective you will feel more able to face opponents and win.
A group has lost their way. A joint project seems to have no real direction. There's nothing stopping you from taking the driver's seat in order to get it back on track. Either others can accept the need to make some changes or you will realise you have joined forces with the wrong people.
Say the wrong thing to someone during a heated conversation and they are liable to begin rumours that damage your reputation. You would be better off bringing talks to a polite close and walking away. Be careful too about who you trust and how much you reveal to others.
