The more challenging the goals you set yourself for the coming year the more you will enjoy life when it all comes together and you reach levels you thought were beyond you. Why settle for a limited share of success when you can have it all?
The sun in your fellow fire sign of Leo at this time of year means there are precious few things you cannot accomplish, so the responsibility is on you to aim high and do something creative this weekend. Don't give less than 100 per cent.
You may not want to forgive a so-called friend for what they recently said about you but it is actually the best move by far. The last thing you need now is to be wasting time and energy on petty vendettas. Get past it and move on.
This is potentially one of the most enjoyable phases of the year for you, so don't sit at home in front of the TV, get out into the world and make some waves. It is also the perfect time to make travel plans for later in the year.
Before you splash a significant amount of cash on something you've had your eye on for some time you need to ask yourself two questions: Do I really need it and can I really afford it? The answer to both questions is almost certainly 'no'.
The more time you spend with people who inspire you this weekend the more likely it is you will come up with productive ideas of your own. Don't look back at the old ways of doing things, look ahead and be a leader for change.
The fact that you are such a practical person gives you a big advantage over some of your more woolly-minded rivals. While they are held back by wishful thinking this weekend you will be moving ahead of them in leaps and bounds.
The message of the stars this weekend is that you need to rise above incidents that enrage you. The world may be unfair but there is no point getting worked up about matters that you cannot possibly change. Aim to change yourself for the better instead.
A bit of sweet talk will open a lot of doors over the next 48 hours, so lay it on thick and don't worry that you may be overdoing it. The people you will be dealing with are too stupid to realize they are being shamelessly flattered.
If you feel the urge to get away from your usual environment then pack an overnight bag and hit the road. You are rarely happier than when on the move and what you see and who you meet on your journey will surely delight you.
A clash of wills on the work front could result in a serious falling out over the next 48 hours. Do your utmost to make sure you are on the winning side, because the planets warn there will be no prizes for coming a brave second.
You may not be the most touchy-feely member of the zodiac but if you reach out to someone this weekend they will respond in kind and a strong bond will be formed between you – a partnership of equals that can never be broken.
You have wasted too much time on trivial matters in recent days and must now move on to activities that bring clear rewards. Ignore those who say that making a profit is in some way immoral – they have no idea what they are talking about.

Artists in Fredericton residency program put public work on display

Tucked under the shade in Fredericton's Botanic Garden, Gary Crosby hammers and chisels, giving a large log new meaning. Slice by slice, the wood chips fall and a face forms. He's carving a mythological Green Man. For the seventh summer, public art is on display and the city's Artist in Residency program is offering a window into the world of how someone's creativity becomes their creation. 'The Green man is a combination mixture of a human figure and forest leaves and growth. It's usually a sign of spring,' Crosby said. At Killarney Lake Park on Fredericton's Northside, Sarah Maloney eyes her surroundings to inspire her creations. Last week she embroidered flowers. This week, she's making wax moulds of Lady's Slippers and finches that will be cast in bronze. Her work responds to the natural world. Art is how she understands it. Fredericton Crosby and Maloney are Fredericton's latest summer Artists in Residence. 'It's how I make the world make sense through looking at things and making things in response to the things I see and learn and observe and collect and immerse myself in the natural environment,' Maloney said. Crosby and Maloney are Fredericton's latest summer Artists in Residence. It's a rotating program that lasts two weeks and includes eight artists between the end of June and August. Each gets a weekly stipend from the city. 'They're in residence for two weeks. And they just get to create based on their environment. And it's an opportunity for people using the park to meet an artist, see what they're up to,' said Angela Watson, Fredericton's Cultural Development Officer. Crosby joined the Canadian Armed Forces in 1981 and has toured in Germany, Bosnia, Sierra Leone, Rwanda, Afghanistan and Honduras. Carving offers an escape. 'The rest of the world falls away, and I just focus on what I'm doing,' he said. Thirty monarch butterflies he carved now rest atop the rafters of Fredericton's Bill Thorpe Walking Bridge, a popular spot for locals and tourists alike. He's also made sculptures of Mother Nature and a Green Man for Fundy National Park. During his residency, he will also construct a sculpture that will feature in a short story. 'There's a short story which I'm building into a book about, a young UNB student who finds a Green Man in the forest that just sort of came to life,' Crosby said. Maloney is a contemporary sculptor and textile artist. A survey of more than 25 years of her work will be on display at Fredericton's Beaverbrook Art Gallery until Oct. 19. The works are part of an exhibition called Sarah Maloney's Pleasure Ground: A Feminist Take on the Natural World. One of the highlights includes a display called Water Level, which exhibits several bronze water lilies and lily pads on steel stems. When walking through, you can imagine walking through a pond or lake at water level. But on this day, her focus is on a workshop for the public. It's part of the residency. 'Mostly it's to pique their curiosity about things and get them to see something in a new light,' she said. Last week she taught embroidery. This week it's clay modelling. Steve Banks brought his two granddaughters back to this week's workshop after enjoying the first week so much. 'Spending a couple hours quality time, it's nice,' he said. Both artists bring people along for their journey. 'Any of this stuff I've got here, they get to see it being created and being done and what my thought process is as I go through it,' said Crosby, adding that seeing art hanging on a wall or in a gallery or shop is one thing to actually talk to the artist as they create it is another perspective. 'It just creates more questions. And the inquiring minds want to know.'
