Virgo

Today you tie up the loose ends of your business affairs and, for the first time in a long while, can think about yourself. Make a list of three simple pleasures for the weekend and don't put a single chore on it.

Warm words mean more today than doing the right thing, so leave small criticisms aside. Tell someone close to you what you are grateful to them for, and see how the evening changes.

Draw a final line under your October budget: income, essential expenses, what is left. Move part of the remainder into a reserve right away, before it dissolves in weekend shopping.

Close whatever is unfinished by the end of the day: answer emails, tick off completed items and hand over what is not yours. A clear desk on Friday will give you a peaceful rest and a fresh start on Monday.

Start taking care of yourself with something simple: a warm dinner at a sensible hour and no work in bed. Your digestion needs a routine, and your nerves need an evening without lists.
