Aries

Something you once thought was right for you, no longer fits in with your family or professional life. You aren’t sure when you started to feel differently but your needs are changing and noticing this is a sign that you are more than ready for a change.

Taurus

Although you are only trying to help, a friend or partner will see your advice as unwelcome criticism. It might be better to hold back your thoughts for the moment and share your honest opinion when they ask for it or when they are feeling more relaxed.

Gemini

You could catch the eye of someone who admires you or your skills. This encourages you to put even more effort into the work you usually do. It will be good to feel appreciated and to have your work acknowledged. Let your true self show.

Cancer

You aren’t ready to travel yet but you're daydreaming about a future trip. Maybe it's the right moment to plan a staycation or a little getaway? Think about heading somewhere peaceful and relaxing, especially if you live or work with noisy people.

Leo

Following the success of a team effort, a personal project will follow in a similarly positive direction. Although this is not likely to be as big or as important as joint commitments, you could still see financial rewards from your work. A career achievement will come about in an unusual way. This is your time to shine.

Virgo

You’re doing your best to get everything right and you set high standards for yourself. While no one expects you to be perfect, are you being too tough on yourself? When discussing your progress, try using gentler language to encourage and uplift your spirit.

Libra

You have a knack for forgiving others quickly, especially when you realise they don’t really mean what they are saying. Your social popularity will play a key role in helping you achieve your goals. Taking part in a charitable project or planning a cultural event will be surprisingly uplifting.

Scorpio

You can’t afford to miss out on some rest. You’ve never stopped over the last few days and it will feel like you’re running on fumes. Also it will do you good to spend some time alone. Taking time for yourself is not a luxury. Being alone can help you recuperate your energy.

Sagittarius

You might start the day with a recent conversation in your mind. Discussions are making you hopeful for the future. Exciting plans are being made and events will meet your expectations. A financial boost will come from an unexpected source and a lot of what is happening now will be enjoyable.

Capricorn

You aren’t always a one to rely on your feelings but what if trusting your intuition might lead you to your goal? Rather than going round in circles as you are doing now, tune into your feelings and trust your first instinct. You might be pleasantly surprised by what follows.

Aquarius

If it is what you really want, you could make a meaningful connection. This will be a relationship that’s worth exploring further. At the same time, keep an eye out for a creative opportunity. This could come your way through a business partnership.

Pisces

The strides you are making on the business front will boost your mood. Things are looking good and exciting festive events are being planned. Just try not to overcommit yourself. Planning an after-work gathering will be good for your career. A neighbour’s suggestion could help solve a travel issue.
