Your Week Ahead - Love Focus: Do you have a reason to feel proud? You do. While all in your world may be far from perfect, you have done something smart. Had you not reached a clear decision, things would be a lot worse. You know this but you still feel inclined to be hard on yourself. That's partly because you don't want to relax your grip on a situation that needs a lot of sorting out. So sort it out. But relax as you do so. Because you've already proven that you have power. It is simply a question now of exercising it wisely. And that, you can easily do. Find out what the planets say about your love, money and career prospects in 2013.

Your Week Ahead - Love Focus: We do what we do when we have to do it! We don't do it before we have to do it. And if we don't have to do it, we don't do it! Well, not the big stuff, anyhow. We may engage in all kinds of indulgent activities that seem pretty serious at the time, but when it comes to major life choices... well, they only happen when they need to. If, looking back, we can't see why they needed to that's because our memories are selective. Trust what has recently happened in your emotional life. And trust what it seems to be leading to next! I have just recorded your latest in-depth week-ahead prediction. It has got some brilliant news in it. You can hear the first minute or so immediately when you click here.

Your Week Ahead - Love Focus: Artists love to play with perspective. Musicians enjoy mixing sounds so that some come to the forefront and others exist as a subtle but crucial background presence. A picture alters dramatically depending on what you place where. A symphony can be transformed by allowing a different instrument to dominate. As you now look at what needs to be altered in your emotional life, try keeping the same basic components but arranging them in a different order. A little creative experimentation could prove a lot more rewarding than you think. 2013 is here. What's going to happen? What does it mean for you? Find out in your 2013 'Guide to the Future'.

Your Week Ahead - Love Focus: They say, 'It's a dog-eat-dog world.' But dogs rarely eat other dogs. They say, 'Attack is the best form of defence.' That's not true either. Attack is just the best way to make sure that you will eventually need a defence. They say, 'We've got to look out for Number One.' But don't we keep hearing heart-warming tales of profound kindness? So, just how tough is your emotional life? It is exactly as harsh (or as hopeful) as your view of human nature. Things will work out much as you expect. So start expecting better!

Your Week Ahead - Love Focus: These are difficult times. They are also, though, wonderful times. Financial cutbacks oblige millions, all over the world, to rethink their relationship with money. The rich don't feel so rich any more. And the poor? They already know what the rich are about to find out. Money is not the be-all and end-all of everything. Love matters more. So, too, do kindness and respect. All the money in the world could not buy what you now need most. Yet you can get it! All you have to do now is look for it in the right place.

Your Week Ahead - Love Focus: In all the best horror films, we never see the monster. We catch only a fleeting glimpse. This is because nothing can compete with the power of our own imagination. From a hint of something scary, we will create a terrifying picture in our mind's eye. Yet, though we may get a shock when we first see a Kong or a Godzilla, we soon become familiar with the image and start to feel less terrified. You half-expect a big difficulty in your emotional life. But if you look at what's really happening, you will find very little to worry about.

Your Week Ahead - Love Focus: Soap operas are the ultimate example. They ramble on, from week to week and year to year. A truly successful series will go from decade to decade. There is never a grand finale. No final curtain call. No moment of comforting completion or rewarding resolution. Just one clear instruction is given to the viewer. Tune in again, this time tomorrow. And tomorrow. And tomorrow. Is that what you want your emotional life to be now? In one key area of your world it is possible to draw a line. It will take courage. But it will be worth it. 2013 is here. What's going to happen? What does it mean for you? Find out in your 2013 'Guide to the Future'. Get yours now!.

Your Week Ahead - Love Focus: Is there no sense of ceremony left in the world? Are we all now oblivious to any activity that doesn't take place on TV? It seems as if we live in a 'so what?' society. There just isn't as much magic around as there used to be. But there is. It's just that we have to look a little harder. No great opportunity is about to bow down and offer itself to you. But if you now saddle-up your horse and ride out through the ranch of possibility, you may yet lasso a real potential change to your emotional life and bring it home behind you.

Your Week Ahead - Love Focus: Once upon a time people came to Planet Earth and searched for a deep, spiritual meaning to their lives. They asked profound questions of themselves and of the universe. They sought wisdom, even enlightenment. But then, some bright spark invented television and all that came to an end. Now, all any of us want is a movie star lifestyle. A trim figure and a trophy partner. That, and a good job... is surely all that any of us need. Isn't it? If you're looking for more, in your heart and your life... you may yet find it!

Your Week Ahead - Love Focus: It remains important to be patient. You are wrestling with a piece of information that requires you to think hard about what previously seemed a fine plan. A degree of irritability is understandable. You ought, though, to wait a while before deciding that all is lost. More unexpected twists and turns await along the next phase of a great emotional quest. The effects of the next few developments will not just cancel out the last ones. They will leave you feeling glad that things were not quite as you thought. I have just recorded your latest in-depth week-ahead prediction. It has got some brilliant news in it.

Your Week Ahead - Love Focus: Here is a magic wand. Wave it! Go on, just pick it up and imagine, in your mind's eye, the ideal outcome to a drama. How would you really like it all to turn out? Why is that so impossible? Sometimes, we feel defeated by factors that others see as trivial. Yet sometimes too, we can accomplish things that amaze our companions. It's all a question of perspective. There's no reason now why you can't reach the goal you have your heart set on, other perhaps, than your own doubt! So drop the doubt! 2013 is here. What's going to happen? What does it mean for you? Find out in your 2013 'Guide to the Future'. Get yours now!.

Your Week Ahead - Love Focus: Even if you like to think of yourself as 'ordinary', you are blessed with an exceptionally creative mind. At one level of life at least, your reactions and ideas are anything but predictable. You love to explore new possibilities and to see situations from different angles. That's why you sometimes find yourself in trouble. You can't resist exploring avenues that others would feel inclined to steer well clear of. Are you now going too far? Of course not. You are doing what's right for your emotional life. This is right for you. Trust that. I have just recorded your latest in-depth week-ahead prediction. It has got some brilliant news in it.
