Your chirpiness will annoy some people this week. Don’t even care about that, so long as you are in a really good space, what others think about you doesn’t concern you. It’s strange how it can so upset people when everything is going right for someone else. So watch, because there will be someone who will try to bring you down – don’t go down that road.

This week will see you being praised, given small tokens of appreciation, and later gifts, that you will treasure because of who they came from. You need do nothing in return, but say thank you – and whatever you do, ‘don’t’ refuse anything as you will hurt them terribly. So your keyword this week is ‘be gregarious’.

Because you don’t understand something, don’t just dismiss it. There are avenues you can go down that will enlighten you and your understanding – then you can make a more informed decision, and you never know, you just might enjoy a topic that you never thought you would even be interested in, and even become very knowledgeable about it.

There is a box of mysteries within your possession, something that will finally open the path on which you will absolutely love to travel. This year is a year of learning, absorbing and analysing (no, you are never too old) so don’t even go down that road. Instead, take up the challenge. There are plenty of people there to support you.

Now the way is clear – instead of fighting with yourself because you feel inadequate. You are about to realise, just how incredibly valuable you are not only to yourself, but to others. Stop leaning on people and allow them to lean on you for a while. This will actually have you feeling totally worthwhile as a person; it will also stop you putting yourself down.

There are times when you have to give up trying – as you know deep in your heart that nothing is going to come from whatever you are pursuing. You are not a quitter, but you are realistic. Go with this feeling, and see where it takes you. Sometime a slow wander is more beneficial than a fast walk.

Your own company this week is all that you need. If this is something you’re not used to, try it. Get to know yourself again, do some soul searching and self analysing. This is really good to do to find out where you are within your thought patterns and your expectations. Remember you are the most important person in the world at those times.

Frustration is the bug you will have to bear this week. It will peak, and all hell will break loose. You have to let your control go, it will be better for all concerned that you let everything off your chest. You will be amazed at how light you feel and that tightness around your forehead will be released.

‘Time’ is a big issue for you, and the longer you leave managing it, the worse it will become. You really need to come up with a workable strategy that even when interrupted it can be picked up from where you left off. There are people out there wanting your advice, don’t ignore them, that’s the easy way out. Put yourself forward.

You are probably feeling a little more settled now than you were six months ago, but because of changes there is a rather unsettling period ahead for you. While this may not please you, it will in the long run be worth it, because what you gain personally will be invaluable to your future.

It’s hard when you are feeling low to bring yourself up to speed again. You have been struggling for a while now to make your life run more smoothly and to quell the nagging feeling in your stomach. Maybe it’s time to look in a totally new direction – only you can decide this.

Sometimes you are a glutton for punishment, and just don’t ever learn. But this time, just maybe you will think long and hard before making a choice and decide to give yourself a break and stay on the right side of the fence – for a change. Please don’t stop being yourself, just adjust it a fraction.
