Be careful not to spoil a smoothly running relationship by making occasional reminders of a less happy period in the history of the friendship.
An urgent letter may precipitate a course of action today which you were not anticipating. You will be wise to follow it through as the out-come is of some importance.
A business transaction with some-one living abroad must be ap-proached very carefully. Make sure you know who you are dealing with, and demand full details at all times.
A business trip which you had planned may have to be postponed for a while and you will be glad of the opportunity to catch up with some of your social commitments.
Delay for a while your acceptance of an invitation to join a new social circle. Your mind should be on your career, and your present social obli-gations keep you well occupied.
Scrutinise an important document with extra care before putting your signature to it. If the meaning is unclear consult a pro-fessional expert.
Since you feel a strong attraction to great works of art, a close study of the subject may induce you to de-vote the major part of your spare time to it.
Don’t be too complacent just be-cause things are running smooth-ly now. It is essential that you maintain your efforts or you may fall behind.
Don’t take it upon yourself to make a far-reaching decision without everybody who may have the slightest connection with it.
A cash gift from a wealthy rela-tion may enable you to pay off a debt. Don’t squander it on use-less trifles. You will feel better if you use it to pay the money ow-ing.
Rectify an error due to your own negligence as soon as possible so that you can enjoy complete peace of mind in your future activities.
A newcomer may be trying too hard and making unnecessary mistakes. Don’t be too critical of his aggressive attitude and try to understand how he feels.
