Instead of shaming yourself into doing work, give yourself a break. Take a long nap, enjoy a movie marathon or treat yourself to a delicious takeaway.

Pisces (Feb20/Mar20)

Don’t let pride get in the way of taking a lucrative job. Although the work isn’t a reflection of your values or style, it will pay the bills. Best of all, taking this job will allow you to travel extensively on an expense account. Dealing with an immature friend is trying your patience. You’re tired of apologising for their rude behaviour. It’s time to have a heart to heart with this joker. Explain how their actions are embarrassing you. Give specific examples.
