Is it a case, this week, of ‘out with the old and in with the new?’ Be diplomatic even though you may feel like blurting out your feelings.

Your Luck: This weekend could see you making big strides to clear up an awkward situation. Be strong.

Your Luck: Keeping a happy heart and an open mind puts you in the right frame of mind for love.
