HEALTH: During the beginning of the month, one may develop a clear idea of what one wants to change and achieve to improve health. However complications could arise along the way and one could develop certain doubts about reaching the goal. Do not be deterred or bewildered about the discoveries but continue to pursue them. The progress may seem to slow down but ultimately one will be able to make it if one maintains the momentum and the will power.

LUCK: At the present, life is not working the way one intended or planned, rather than thinking that others may have created misfortunes. One may need to review and be prepared to accept the changes, which are inevitable. Once the perspective on the matter is clearer, one will realize that because of the extent and nature of changes in the world around you, those objectives need to be reconsidered ultimately. Do not delay or keep putting off the process.

MONEY: Do not develop any high expectation concerning unsavory battles involving finance; business and certain friends or associates will be resolved amicably. The tricky part is making it crystal clear that you care, but firmly avoiding providing advice or getting involved. If this seems cold or cruel, one will soon be glad one steered well clear of the dramas, which will become much more complex before getting better. In the mean time, one has far more interesting things to pursue, ideas that could take one far away, via discussion, research or even travel away from these scenarios.

ROMANCE: Perhaps one has already decided that difficulties concerning tricky problems involving loved ones and what seems to be deception are best handled by undertaking some discreet investigation before saying a word. At other times, that may be wise, SO do not jump straight to conclusion because one could be probably wrong. Accusing loved ones could hurt his/her feelings and it would take twice the effort to make peace and attain harmony.

HEALTH: It is not that one has been avoiding certain issues as much as one assumed discussing them could only complicate things or alternatively one thought everything had already been said. Issues involving certain tricky health conditions are nothing new, but have been hugely frustrating as well. Rather than bottling up the problems within oneself, it is advisable to seek professional assistance and let them help you out.

LUCK: Initially, it almost seems that a cruel fate is causing problems with your plans ranging from modest to some of great significance. Being you, things are organized from the outset, hence one does not anticipate any difficulties. However one could not possibly predict that actual circumstances one is dealing with could change over a short period or without warning. The first impulse is to seek swift remedies. Do not panic when an answer is not found immediately; try to stay calm and approach with caution.

MONEY: It is not the first time in your life one has acted impetuously and then regretted it. The problem is that it would appear your impulsiveness is responsible for plans one has worked hard to organize, do fall apart. Actually, things are more complex than originally envisaged and it is unlikely that these could have survived. Until one has facts to back up those feelings, one will need to take reassurance on faith. Do not expect miracles might happen overnight.

ROMANCE: One prefers to deal with situation as swiftly as possible, while loved ones or partner is agonizingly painstaking. Usually one is able to accommodate this difference between your paces and loved ones. Currently, however the issue one is facing requires a tandem approach, from finding discussions to finding a solution and putting in place. Obviously there have been tensions due to indifference; give him/her a chance and hang in there, for one will not regret it at the end. True love and romance is about sharing the burdens together rather than abandonment during time of need.

HEALTH: It is perfectly natural that one wants to know what one is getting into before reaching any agreement relating to personal or loved ones health conditions. Do not drive yourself and everyone else crazy with questions about minor details and elements of the future that will work them out anyway. Over-concern for their well-being may seem to be natural and caring but at times, one should let things rest and let it take its natural course.

LUCK: The good news is that certain individuals who you have been encouraging to take initiative in his/her lives and endeavors are doing exactly that. The unfortunate news is what they are undertaking is not what you may have anticipated and that worries you. Express your concern if you need to but then back off and let destiny takes its own course. There is so much one can do and this applies to loved ones or someone very dear. Hopefully one will realize or learn something positive out of this life.

MONEY: Letting go of arrangements and perhaps alliances that one has struggled to maintain afloat may seem like defeat. However by latter part of the month, it should be clear to you that some of these elements of your own life are changing; which could turn good as well as bad. Do not feel disappointed when things are sliding downward and one needs to act promptly from the outset. Have a break away from such challenging task if necessary and continue again with a fresher mind.

ROMANCE: One can easily overlook small activities when too occupied with work, neglecting loved ones or partner. Often one is more conscious of what others are feeling than they are themselves and so you should understand or pick up such vibes, and defusing potentially troublesome situations tactfully. You could land yourself into a juggling act scenario and hoping to be the peacemaker for the month. Ultimately the effort is worth every drop of sweat when those affected turn around and give you a big hug or kiss.

HEALTH: By now one probably has enough of a grip on changes in daily existence that even with disruption or health discomforts, but one is still confident of coping with. One should recognize the improvements that the doctors or specialists are introducing. Tensions involving others, those you linked to emotionally and intimate friends are far more complex. Once you recognize the issues, discuss and deal with them promptly instead of ignoring them. Do not let fear be your own enemy within that could easily destroy one's soul and dignity.

LUCK: At the beginning of the month, one will probably be deeply involved in putting several tricky situations right, something at which one is usually the expert. However one is contending with a shortage of reliable facts and an equally undermining case of self-doubt. They are altering the actual circumstances and one is unsure if it is for the better. It is, but one may not recognize that for some time. Instead of brooding, reflect on similar past scenarios when initially things looked grim, yet ultimately events proved to be a life changing and perhaps it is a welcome turning point.

MONEY: While others are driven to distraction by petty problems, deal with what one can and shrugs off what one cannot. Once you understand the obstacles one is facing are more about what you can learn than carrying out your intentions, you will not waste more time struggling and instead begin searching for answers. One gradually realizes the issue is not what one is dealing with but several of your objectives need to be updated, if not then abandoned.

ROMANCE: Disagreements on the home front are never easy to deal with. And they are particularly tricky because there are so many different perspectives on the same issues. In such situations, you often take the role of peacemaker. The problem is, you are absorbed in dramas as others. Saying nothing may seem weak and uncaring. Caught in between the parties is going to be challenging as well as difficult. Hence use your wisdom to reach amicable solutions so that all can live happily under the same roof.

HEALTH: For ages, one has nearly reached a point of having to tackle certain practical health matters, but something else has always interrupted as a priority. Circumstances make it very clear that these cannot wait or be delayed much longer. This is partly due to misunderstandings with relatives or loved ones about who is responsible for what. Untangling this confusion may require more time than originally anticipated. Invest serious time and thoughts exploring your options, for what one learns or encounters could introduce much needed encouragement.

LUCK: After a long period when personal life seemed to be shaped by a combination of destiny and the whims of others, one is finally regaining a degree of control and respect. As much as a relief, do not loose sight of plans that needed tightening or refining. The more one learns about both the situations and reliability of certain individuals; the more one realizes that before making any commitments, serious questions must be raised. While getting solid answers that require more time, unexpected and often touching revelations about the attitude and past actions from certain individuals are hugely reassuring.

MONEY: An individual you care about or perhaps a worthy organization, wants something from you, probably money, time, contacts or support. Yet one cannot help feeling suspicious about it. There is too much maneuvering in the background and what one is hearing seems half-baked. The real challenge is not discovering the facts but avoiding being cornered into succumbing to their plans. Maybe there is nothing much more one can do; merely take several backward paces. One certainly has other much better things to do than getting sucked into such dramas. In the worst-case scenario, one certainly always has the option to finally say no.

ROMANCE: In the recent past, one has been reflecting on relations with loved ones and mulling over ways to resolve certain increasingly tricky issues. As these are not the types one can raise casually, one is concerned that these problems might become worse wile tensions build. All one has to do is say what has been on your mind and remind him/her how much you value the relationship. Speaking the truth provides come kind of reassurance or comfort and do not assume him/her to understand your assumption.

HEALTH: One has just survived a lengthy period during which your ways of living, working and health have been unceremoniously altered. The month is mainly on exploration and ideally achieving a better understanding of how these changes will merge with exciting developments in the world around you, and causing no great detrimental energy drain to your overall health. Weigh the pros and cons; take more time to digest the facts before reaching a final conclusion. One can always walk away from all this hoo-hah, if the situation exerts too much pressure emotionally.

LUCK: When facing the obstacles currently causing delay in nearly every area of you life, one is unlikely to regard them as beneficial. One prefers to overcome the problem with speed whenever possible. Practicality is the key to your thinking and shapes every conversation, when others are expressing their excitement concerning intriguing ideas or offers. You could be excited by their promise but too afraid to admit it for fear one will be let down. It is as if being negative will shield one from disappointment.

MONEY: It is not the first time in your life one has acted impetuously and then regretted it. The problem is that it would appear your impulsiveness is responsible for financial plans one has worked hard to organize, coming apart. Things are more complex than envisaged and it is unlikely that these would have survived as originally conceived. One may feel that it is only a temporary setback. True, provided one has facts to back those feelings, one will need to take reassurance on faith. After that one will have no doubt that financial miracles are possible.

ROMANCE: Recently one has been wrestling with a mix of irritating misunderstandings and unsettling personal doubts with loved ones or partner. Obviously this has not been fun and one may need to examine personal feelings and actions instead of taking evasive steps. What one already learnt from facing uncomfortable facts has freed you, instead of avoiding self-reflection and one could engage in it, encouraging loved ones to join in. The resulting revelations could transform your relationship.

HEALTH: A steady diet of impossible situations and difficult individuals is no fun. Hopefully one will realize that patience and tact achieve more than confrontation. Certainly where one has refused to become upset or alternatively beat a strategic retreat, things are turning around on their own. Minor health related problems arise and some reveal undiscovered difficulties from the past. If one has already adopted a philosophical approach, then instead of struggling with the ups and downs, one will keep the image of serenity.

LUCK: It is difficult not to regard certain individuals who have been maneuvering in the background as just plain sneaky. When challenged as to what they are up to, they are indistinct. Yet their actions suggest they have a plan that could easily upset elements of your way of living, business or working. The problem is not what they are doing, but regarding their behavior or activities as their business. Understand this and not only will those discussions become clearer, one can then discover exactly what they are up to and may actually conclude that you are quite happy about the outcome.

MONEY: There is no easy way around issues involving resources such as personal time, money or even the goodwill of others. Because one gains these with amazing relative ease, when one runs short, one assumes one will be able to devise an ingenious plan around the problem. Between now and then, however one will have to face the stern but ultimate instructive lessons provided by adverse aspects - truth and transformation. This suggests that if one is willing to face the facts one has been avoiding, not only will one find a solution for the issue in question, but also what one learns could prevent it happening again.

ROMANCE: While certain individuals struggle with change of any kind, one rather enjoys the challenge of coming to terms with a new relationship. However one is keen to develop a trusting and open dialogue before raising the game to the next level. That being the case regards yourself as an explorer in unknown territory and let each day's discovery be your guide to the next stage. This not only enables you to avoid potential pitfalls, but one will gradually rediscover the zest for life.

HEALTH: Knowing that one must face up to certain rather difficult situations involving a tricky combination of practical and health matters, one cares about deeply might help to make dilemmas any easier to deal with. No doubt some facts are disappointing and some could mean saying farewell to certain arrangements. If so, that just means that one will have a bit more valuable time to lavish on those that remain.

LUCK: For ages, someone close at heart has been trying to tell you that if one could manage to be patient, something would appear that would resolve numerous issues involving work and personal lifestyle. No doubt one is dubious about the initial thoughts and since then one has become rather cynical about things ever breaking what one regards as a relentless pattern. Recent events could restore faith and one will be amazed when things that appear from out of the blue can work so spectacularly well.

MONEY: Others insist one is taking tensions in certain circumstances far too seriously. This ranges from personal issues involving family, loved ones or close friends to finance. In every case, however misunderstandings are so fundamental that one wonders how one will ever overcome them. Do not worry too much at this stage, when things have already gone wrong, there is not much one can do. While your first instinct may be to maintain the status quo, one will soon realize that this about letting go and not sticking with what one knows.

ROMANCE: One may have some serious questions about personal lifestyle, love life, home, money, career as well as close relationships. Previous efforts to resolve these have only got so far. Consequently, one will welcome remarkable ideas and insights that appear from nowhere but others as a result of reflection. Whilst acting on them may require faith, where one is hesitant from the beginning but once one becomes involved, it is clear that one may have found a better and more imaginative way to approach those issues.

HEALTH: Acknowledging that certain arrangements simply are not in your hands and one has overcome the obstacle. One may disagree with the doctors or medical professionals' views and regard their decisions as disastrous, but they are in charge and therefore mistakes are their problem. There is not point in trying to contest the outcome where one's health condition is in their care; just give them more time to establish the cause of the issues. Start praying if necessary and hope the best outcome.

LUCK: One could land itself in a difficult position during this period, if one points out problems or says what one thinks that will either violate a confidence of provoke somebody that one cannot afford to do battle with. Remain silent and should things become worse, others will rightly question why you did not speak up. Sounds like one is trapped in between two sharp edged boulders, making any sudden moves either side will result in being bruised. Alternatively one can try sending smoke signals that hopefully others will notice the distress signals and come to your rescue, but do not build your hopes too high.

MONEY: For quite sometime, one may have been thinking of tackling certain financial matters but something else has always appeared in the way. Unsettling events make it much clearer that these cannot wait much longer and force one to make the ultimate move. Untangling this uncertainty may require more time than originally anticipated but the process finally strengthens one's confidence. Invest serious time and thought exploring various options, since what one learns or encounters could bring much excitement.

ROMANCE: Issues involving certain tricky close relationships are nothing new, but have been hugely frustrating. Those who have been difficult are as likely to recognize the problems they have been causing, as you are to develop ideas about how to resolve them. Discuss whatever arises swiftly and be honest, for which they will treasure the true values. Clear up the differences even if this mean making compromises. Ultimately one could find peace and harmony again in the relationship.

HEALTH: This month peculiar events should not provide much in the way of hard facts or a chance to address practical health concerns either personally or concerning loved ones. What one learns or experiences involves certain more subtle issues that one hoped would have been resolved. One may find a huge relief when resulting discussions also reveal information about personal problems that were not previously addressed. Consider such timing as perfect and one must speak up about sudden pressing issues that have been cluttering one's mind.

LUCK: Recent misunderstandings have been doubly difficult. One has to contend with problems others created, some of which were rather complex indeed. One was also disillusioned by the attitude and behavior of certain individuals. Perhaps one has realized for sometime that they do not develop a relatively high standard of friendship or relationships and have learnt not to take their apparent uncaring attitude to heart. Do not just keep mum; ask the questions, while it may takes others by surprise. After that one will know exactly where they are coming from and what one wanted to achieve.

MONEY: Because one has a superb instinct for managing practicalities, one is usually able to deal easily with situations that would overwhelm others - colleagues, clients or family members. Beware of a potential battle involving finance, various obligations and personal assets. This could be partly due to errors in the past that one was unaware of. Now that you have been updated, remedying this is relatively straightforward. So much so in fact that one can finally devote some attention to exploring new ideas or introductions that others insist could enrich one's life.

ROMANCE: Nobody invests more time, energy, discussion and emotion in relationship than the Rooster Type. First of course is your beloved. However family members and close friends all in the circle, which focuses on encouraging them and ensuring they will be happy. Your recent efforts were successful to a certain extent, where certain individuals are either taking you for granted or worse seems to have lost interest. Unless one expresses concern about this change in attitude, which one worries will cause upset; they will assume you do not care.

HEALTH: Obviously one is unhappy about the fact that one cannot entirely be in control of destiny and health condition. Sudden developments and peculiar situations are symptomatic of the changes one is going through. Knowing that the quick fixes one is thinking about could probably only complicate things. Instead regard both welcome and disruptive changes as the beginning of this review, and remember there are parts of the journey, but not your ultimate destination.

LUCK: Few things aggravate an individual more than delays, so one will be thrilled that remarkable plans discussed recently are being turned into positive action. But one is unlikely to be happy with the way things are being done momentarily. Have patience and maintain a posture of observation, the ability to adapt promptly with the changing needs will ensure that an individual could soon be accomplishing and profiting more in financial terms which will boost one's spirits. If possible, it is more important to adopt a positive thinking attitude most of the time.

MONEY: As can happen to anyone, one discovers a situation in which one had acted unwisely. Ideally one seizes hold of it before others notice, so one can make emergency repairs. However one must be prepared that such secret could be found out at a later stage. Perhaps one of the best strategies is not to open up, but to seek guidance from others. Since the situation remain tricky, getting others involved means that one will be sharing vital information and the burden for getting things rectified.

ROMANCE: Recently one has been reflecting on relations with loved ones, mulling over ways to resolve certain increasingly tricky issues. As these are not the sort one can raise casually, one is concerned that these problems might become worse while tensions develop. All one has to do is say what has been on your mind and remind him/her how much you treasure the relationship with them. Try not to over-do it or else it could backfire in your face. There is no better way to reconcile the difference then by having a romantic dinner in a decent restaurant.

HEALTH: There is a difference between knowing one will have to make decisions, which one does and being ready to make them which one is not, concerning medical treatment for oneself or loved ones. After having explored all possibilities, the medical profession will have given you the options that one can ultimately make - either to engage with the operations, which could result losing certain functionality, but saving the life. It may be a tough decision to handle but one should make it without any guilty conscience.

LUCK: Not only has the road to achieving certain targets been a bumpy ride, one still has quite a distance to cover. Frustrating as this is, one is not alone in facing a combination of perplexing circumstances and setbacks. Persist but be alert to changes in the situations one is dealing with. Sometimes this could mean taking plans back to the drawing board, rethinking the objectives. One may realize that change is unavoidable and consider such timing as beneficial, when the outcome turns out better than envisaged.

MONEY: Sometimes good fortune comes in strange packages. Urgent as things seem, one needs only to show interest in the ideas, offers and events currently unfolding. One has just survived a lengthy period during which your ways of working have been unceremoniously altered often bizarrely. This month is about exploration and ideally achieving a better understanding of how these changes will merge with exciting developments in the world around you, leading to unbelievable financial benefits for you.

ROMANCE: Obviously one is not too happy about upheaval in situations involving close relationship that one adores. Recent difficulties have already drawn one's attention to practical obligations or family arrangements, affecting quality time spend with loved ones. Do not keeps things to oneself; one is advised to speak out and discuss openly with those affected. Making your feelings known compounded with honest opinion should help to bridge any misunderstanding and cement the relationship making it even stronger. Do not fear that it could upset him/her when one speaks the truth.
