24th Fri. Black-and-white thinking pushes some to take matters to an extreme, but a middle-ground solution could be more advantageous.

24th Fri. Home security hits a rocky edge (or ledge). Avoid late-afternoon and late-evening power struggles and dinnertime brings a peaceful interlude.

24th Fri. Refer to the past for what you can learn from it, not just to rehash it. Being open to new, forwarding-looking ideas helps you get past a setback.

24th Fri. You’ll need to untangle a financial matter, but try to avoid wrangling with a friend about it this afternoon. Dinnertime is the most peaceful option.
