16 METRO Wednesday, November 18, 2009 D You dont seem to be aware of the strength of your words. You think that close ones will forget any harsh words you say, but you are wrong. Think before you speak please Aries. Dont make rash judgements. Sleep on all major decisions or you could end up regretting what you commit to. New flirtations in your career prove intriguing and fun. Just remember to set some boundaries. Careful how much you tell those you work with about your personal life. You dont want them judging you unnecessarily. This is a good time to keep career and love separate, as youre beginning to realise. The aspects show stress in your chart. The problem is the issues you are hiding from. Face your fears and youll soon see you have all the help and support you need for success. Whats the point of putting so much work into your life, if you dont get to enjoy some of the benefits too? Youre your own worst taskmaster at times Leo. Cut yourself some slack, starting now. My oh my Virgo. Have you stopped and thought about what you are thinking of doing? I think youd change your mind if you did. There are other ways of getting this attention you crave. Give the person whos been trying to attract your attention a chance to impress. If you dont think you deserve to have fun, then why should anyone else? Return text messages today, sooner rather than later. Younger faces seem to be quite a worry for you at the moment. Just make sure you arent exasperating the problem, rather than helping it. Back off and take a look at the bigger picture. Look around Sagittarius, life is good. You only thought things were still bad, as youve been so wrapped up in what was, to realise that youve moved on to bigger and better things. This is the week you will find out which friends are real, and which were fake. Will you be surprised? Maybe. Will you be better off for knowing. Definitely. Legal links can prove profitable for you. Dont act on second hand information. You would be far better to get the news you need, from the horses mouth. Peace talks with family make you feel better about the present and the future. Your nose has been put out of joint by someone you see as competition, but who I know you could surpass. Believing is half the battle, the other half is not engaging in petty wars with them.
