You’re not in the mood for happy hour, but if there’s any way at all you can force yourself to go out after work, even if it’s just for a little while, you won’t regret it. The heavens are brimming over with fun energy, the stuff that lively, unexpected conversations are made of. And if you’ve been hiding out, that might be just what the doctor ordered. Even if you haven’t, get out there. Too much time alone isn’t good for anyone, especially you.

Letting people come to you keeps you safely in your comfort zone, but you’ve got ways to make overtures without sticking your neck out too far. A group setting or a good friend can keep things comfy.

Your partner may be in a lousy mood today, and your first reaction will be to take it personally. Try to remember that they have issues and concerns that may have nothing to do with you. This is one of those times.

Don’t get boring. Hard work, making money and time off — now that’s a good combination. It’s a day for fun, romance or friendship — anything but finance.
