Some people seem to feel that they need megaphones, websites, neon signs and social network campaigns, in order to make their message understood. Others somehow seem to manage to communicate clearly with just a gentle glance or a subtle gesture. You feel misunderstood at the moment. That may be partly because you are secretly unsure about your own position. Deepen and develop your confidence.
 Have faith in your own entitlement. Then it will be easy to make sure your voice is heard.Every dream has its downside, every clever contribution has its stupefying side-effect. You can't just drop your current big idea because a certain someone doesn't like it. But you can modify the notion so that it more easily accommodates this person's need. You can also adjust the way you talk about it so as to make it less contentious. 
YOU know what has to happen and why... and the planets insist you are completely correct. You need diplomacy and sensitivity but you also need the courage of your convictions.Be glad of what's up in the air. Look at what's awkward, wild, hairy and scary and just give thanks. Your problem is a gift. You are only just starting to discover how much it is worth to you. Without it, you have no light and shade, no way to understand what really matters and what merely nearly matters. You have to go through the tunnel before you can emerge into the glorious light of day. The tunnel may be dark, but then you're close to the end of it now. Carry on, hope for the best, work for the best and you will get the best.
Live and let live. ' So they say. 'It takes all sorts to make a world. ' They say that, too. Who are these bastions of tolerance? What gives them the right to be so liberal and forgiving? Don't they know that it's people like them who make the world such a tricky place? They should all just accept that there's only one way to look at life... and that's your way. Shouldn't they? Normally, you are very forgiving. Currently, you are amazed at an entirely unacceptable attitude. You are right to be upset but wrong to be worried.
Think, for a moment, about how vastly different, in so many ways, the world has become in the years since you were born. There is no reason to suspect that the future is going to be any less dramatic. The only thing we can be sure of in this uncertain world, is that something new will always be waiting round the corner. You are changing, by the day. So too, is your situation. Despite what you fear or think, this is just as it should be. All you need, to start fixing all that's wrong, is some patience and a sense of perspective.
It all starts at kindergarten. Soon after we have taught our children their first few words, we begin them on concepts like big, bigger, biggest. Small, smaller, smallest. And so on. Measurements. Assessments. Harmless and necessary, of course. But somehow it turns out that wherever, in life, there is a method of comparison, there is also a mechanism for judgement. A potential for one-upmanship, valuation, trade and negotiation. Watch out today for a lot of fuss about a false scale of relative merit
