If you’re still feeling as if your mind is in a fog and your emotions are hailstones, you might not be quite ready to face the usual demands you juggle from day to day, much less any extra responsibilities. Keep your cool if your partner volunteers your services for a fundraiser or your kids come in with hungry friends looking for dinner. As soon as you can, try to escape to a quiet part of the house and lose yourself in a book. The diversion will take your mind off what’s troubling you.

You always know what’s going on. Nothing slips by you. That’s why you’re focused on those dark eyes across the room. They’ve been fixed on you for ages. Approach your admirer with the purest of intentions, avoiding any of your famous hidden agendas.

Something from your personal history could come up now in the context of your current relationship. In order to find clarity, express what you’re feeling now and how it relates to what happened then.

Your financial situation may be unique. That may mean you’re just fine, thank you. But it also means you have to honor the code of silence even more than ever. Button up.
