Overview : You are showing off a little and finding new ways to impress your people. You may find that your new crush (or long-term squeeze) looks at you in a new way when all is said and done. Extended : All day, you will feel an insatiable need for 'more more more' of whatever you have right now. The extravagant side of your nature is clearly in control, and while it might get you in some financially uncomfortable situations, it is a natural extension of how happy you are in your life. Satisfaction isn't enough, though. You crave the excessive energy that comes from indulging in the things that make you happy, and you won't feel the slightest tinge of guilt. Work : Be generous with your praise, but precise with your criticism. You'll be focused on the performance of one subordinate or trainee, and the more feedback you can give, the more at home she or he will feel. Home & Garden : You saved all year quite purposefully so you will not go into debt when making a big purchase. Don't let the dazzle of store displays bust your bank account. Shop armed with a list to help you resist temptation.
Overview : If you have time off on Monday, make the most of it; if you don't, consider taking some. Your energy's so good ... why waste it on work? Around Tuesday and Wednesday, you might leave that shell of yours so far behind that it's a little outrageous. Kudos to you for putting yourself out there, but do also give a tiny bit of thought to what this might mean down the road. Those who think you're hopelessly at the mercy of your emotions might be surprised by your objective standpoint and analytical abilities during the rest of the week. It's a great time for a reality check. Business : Your holistic view of worklife gives you insight on Monday that'll have others wondering where you get your inside info. Smile -- you've got your sources. Then you're a master of P.R. over the next few days and don't overlook the opportunities for self-promotion. Answer 'How's it going?' with a success story about meeting challenges and solving problems instead of complaining about what remains to be done. And on Friday and over the weekend, give every interaction your undivided attention -- and consider that a little face-time makes an excellent substitute for endless emailing or IM'ing. Travel : You want to look like you know what you're doing, but you also don't want to offend anyone, especially if you're traveling in a place with customs that are different from what you're used to. The solution? Watch and observe to see what residents of this place do. If the answer's still not clear, ask a local what's the proper method or the cultural expectations around an activity. Most likely people will look very kindly on your thoughtfulness and concern. Plus those conversations might lead to more information and invitations -- always a good thing, especially if you're trying to get situated.
