If you're on a decluttering mission, be careful how determinedly you clear the decks. This probably relates to material or sentimental objects, and you could be too strict with your selection process regarding what goes in a trashcan or skip. If in doubt, create a pile marked “unsure” or “to be reviewed.” You could be glad you did.

Don't allow assumptions to fill in gaps where you know crucial intel is missing. Your instincts often serve you well but might let you down now. So, deal strictly with facts and nothing else, Pisces - including the truth. It doesn't matter how credible someone sounds or a source of information appears to be. Check and double-check the reliability before you take it as gospel!

Your ambitiousness is unlikely to be questioned by anybody now. But an inspired plan needs you to be more open about why it fires you up. You may also need to clarify what you “bring to the party” or to someone, possibly a VIP. Your enthusiasm and credentials support you well, but only to a point. Have an answer ready that involves how somebody will benefit by choosing you.

Unless you have a faith-driven plan to bring a cherished vision to fruition, it will remain a wish. If this fires you up and you know you can achieve it, what stops you from getting it underway? Thinking about it won't be as effective as writing it down to give your eyes and brain something to process. Don't be afraid to break a goal into manageable chunks if that makes more sense or is easier.

It would help you, others or possibly someone in particular if you consider that not everybody thinks like you. Your mind constantly processes vast amounts of data, and you may believe that because you've had a particular train of thought, someone or others have as well. Don't make that assumption. Laying down laws or banging a fist on the table will only push away the support you need.

Hit the pause button briefly with the focus and effort you give a particular relationship. If this is romantic, are you doing all the legwork? If it's business-related, shouldn't somebody absorb more than they do? You could have umpteen reasons to keep pursuing or pushing for progress. But something that benefits you and another shouldn't involve you doing the most to make it happen.

If you possess more energy or enthusiasm to self-improve, don't let anyone's Eyeore-like attitude hold you back. Just because they're not as fired up as you or don't seem to take it as seriously doesn't mean your plans or ambitions should be affected. However you want to create a better version of yourself, be prepared to do it solo if necessary. Don't let anyone disrupt your game plan!

Can money be made or saved with strength in numbers? In other words, will it be more cost-effective to get someone or others to chip in with something rather than you absorbing 100% of the cost? That appears to be the case. You're helped to devise a way to conserve resources, and if you can get enough people on board with a plan requiring cash, it could be win/win for everyone!

Be careful about mixing business with pleasure. In fact, if an opportunity exists to involve a family member with something business-related, you'd be well advised to consider another option. However, if you are determined to involve a clan member or someone you share DNA with, try to get impartial advice from outside your domestic sphere first. Once done, proceed if you feel it's sensible.

If you're not a detective or an investigator, have you considered being one? Even as a sideline job, it probably wouldn't be long before it became full-time. Your sleuth-like abilities come into their own now, especially if you must get to the bottom of something or bring the truth into the open. You could be prepared to go to lengths others aren't, which is why your results will be much more impressive!

Try to focus less on “what's in it for you” in some way. Making a small sacrifice might mean you take more of a backseat or do something in the background. But don't believe your role is inferior or unappreciated. You're probably watched more than you think, and what you do to support someone or others could score you significant brownie points.

This is no time to force an agenda, Capricorn. Regardless of how right you believe you are, a “my way or the highway” approach will only create resistance between you and others. If you take a domineering approach now, it could backfire. Resist any urge to say “I told you so.” Being seen to make a concerted effort to hear what others think or have to say promises to benefit you.
