Today, you’re involved in a delicate balancing act centered around protectiveness—protection is valuable, but too much protection may be unhealthy and defeat its purpose.  By knowing and respecting your limits, you avoid getting caught up in paternalism or fool-hearty rebellion, and walk a fine line gracefully.  Taking the leadership reins keeps others’ negativity or impulsiveness from jeopardizing a dream.  You progress by focusing on business, not socializing.  Strings you pull this evening invite career or status gains.
