Unexpected obstacles are still on the road ahead, but if you can make your way through today (which could be tricky if a loved one’s jealousy or bitterness pops up) and tomorrow (because work trumps play), you should be looking at a smoother ride. Try to just grin and bear it. Let others be as grumpy as they need to be, but don’t encourage the negative energy.

If you have to argue for your own merits with this person, are they really someone you want to be with? Think about it. Your love of a challenge may have led you to pursue someone who isn’t worth your time.

The two of you might not see eye to eye on every issue, but you share enough aesthetic common ground to know you can trust each other’s judgment. Today you ought to be perfectly in sync.

The financial future is unknown, but somehow that doesn’t seem like such a frightening concept. Instead of daydreaming, you may even want to venture out and do some tentative exploring and place a few small wagers.
