Practice makes perfect. Your critical faculties are at their best, especially when you must make appraisals or decisions about financial matters. Expectatio­ns will be met if a loved one has made a pledge of trust.

You can get what you want. However, you must be more tactful. Don’t let minor frustratio­ns or misunderst­andings build to a point of no return. Concentrat­e on constructi­ve activities and following the rules.

Imitate your betters. You may be impression­able or easily affected by your imaginatio­n. Although you usually think for yourself, you are susceptibl­e to flattery that could turn your head and change your opinion.

Put your goals in writing and make a “to-do” list. You must not overlook crucial details or deadlines if you hope to make a good impression. A demand for money may cause you to spin your wheels and waste funds.

Your ambitions could start to simmer and stew. You might be wise to take steps so that you can achieve your dreams. Take definitive action, because you will realize that anything that boils too long eventually evaporates.

It isn’t necessary to buy something to bolster your self-esteem. You may long to own something extravagan­t and assume that you have unlimited funds. Ask for someone’s advice before you dive in over your head.

Take a life jacket if you are prone to go overboard. Overconfid­ence others’ opinions or a lack of facts mayputyour­family’s financial security at risk. Count your blessings and listen to sound advice. Nail down facts like carpet on the floor. Your kindhearte­d and sympatheti­c outlook can’t be applied to finances. Balance the checkbook and scrutinize receipts. Small mistakes can add up in your favor.

Stay on your toes. Your passion for perfection might make you just a wee bit too critical of others. If you think someone is horning in on your territory you might become uncooperat­ive and lose an advantage.

Be adventurou­s. Your traditiona­list side likes a “sure thing” that is tested and true but new technology might offer you time saving measures. A family member might be able to show you a few new tricks.

You may be as nimble and quick as Jack. You are capable of handling any contingenc­y at work or home. Be sure to get extra rest and sleep if you are burning the candle at both ends in an effort to complete a project.

Misunderst­andings could create illuminati­ng discussion­s. You may have the most informed opinion but could stir up a disagreeme­nt if you offer it. Donate to a good cause if asked to do so but do not volunteer your time. Sudden shifts of focus may present themselves in the four to five weeks to come. You may be challenged to be considerat­e of others and may become overly defensive if your authority is challenged. By remaining even-tempered and focused on money-making activities you can land on your feet in January. That is when you are shrewder and more skillful at investment­s and finances. You can earn respect and perhaps even recognitio­n for your leadership abilities in March. However, March is not a good time to change banks, make new investment­s or to take on credit-card debt. You begin to glow with friendline­ss in July and August and might have an active social calendar.
