Aries
March 21 to April 19
Enjoy yourself, you deserve it.
You’ll have opportunities a-plenty to mingle and co-mingle with new romantic prospects. Possibilities should pop up in all areas of your life. Don’t overlook the person sitting next to you at work, even if they do make too much noise when they slurp their coffee.
Flirt with that cute, sexy person who hands over your morning Super-Grande, Double Mocha, Extra Shot Super Frothy Latte. You might be pleasantly surprised to discover they think you’re as sweet as the coffee you’ve ordered.
Love is in the air this Valentine’s Day week, and you’re willing and deserving to find someone who could help you to cut out paper hearts and plaster them all over your life.
Keep a light attitude, don’t take romantic connections too seriously and whatever you do, don’t forget to have fun.
The whole week should be great for romance.
Taurus
April 20 to May 20
Speaking from the heart could help mend any cracks found therein.
If you’ve felt lonely or less than fulfilled when it comes to love and romance, this is your week to reach out to someone. Your heart could use some spackling and perhaps a new paint job in order to render it ready for the next phase of your love life.
Find someone who’s willing to listen to your truth, especially those truths that deal with how you view relationships and your romantic world. Keep in mind that you’re not necessarily looking for this listener to be your next romantic fling. They may end up that way, but it’s more important that you speak and be heard.
You need to have a positive attitude when doing this and not dwell upon the negative. All of this will prepare and strengthen you against the potential of future heartaches.
As this week proclaims love in all its glory, proclaim yourself as a true advocate of romantic bliss and you’ll be repaid many times over.
Wednesday through the weekend are excellent days to connect.
Gemini
May 21 to June 20
You nasty love object, you!
You’ll be desired on every possible level for the entire week. Although a ton of fun, just like those crunchy little candy hearts, too much will give you a horrible tummy ache.
Moderation is advised when it comes to socializing and loving. You could find yourself suddenly attracting several interested parties, all of whom want to take a bite of your chocolate edibles.
Burning the candle at both ends will be a huge temptation but don’t do it. Try to focus on one person in particular and let them honor you as their Valentine. If their talents don’t make your Valentine’s Day card pop up, then it’s permissible to move on.
As always, make sure that if you play, you do so safely and with a bit of syrup.
The entire week should be filled with fun and games.
Cancer
June 21 to July 22
The week’s love activities could center around the bedroom.
Your energies are specifically sexy and may draw only those who want to inspect you for moles and birthmarks. Don’t be fooled by requests to get to know you better on a deeper, emotional level. It just ain’t so, at least not this week.
You may find that the very energies that draw people to you this week will cement them to you. (Depending on where they’re cemented, this could be awkward.)
On the other hand, you may discover that the potential for a shallow, meaningless relationship is overwhelming at this time.
As long as you stay focused on what you want in a relationship and can decide not to settle for less, you’ll be sitting in the driver’s seat of the vehicle of love. Hang up and drive! You’ll need all your attention for any relationship that pops up, so don’t be distracted.
If you aren’t in the mood for a meaningless physical fling, sequester yourself as the temptation could be too great.
Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday should be the bee’s knees.
Leo
July 23 to August 22
Confidence will get you anything you desire.
A cocky, fun attitude will funnel enjoyable playmates into your world.
I don’t have to tell you how magnificent you are, you already know that, so allow that magnificence to permeate from your inner core into the world, bringing light to those of us not as fortunate as you.
I think you get the picture.
You’ll need to be able to allow us to bask in your glory without appearing to be arrogant, pompous or devoid of all humility.
It’ll be advantageous for you to feel sexy on the inside and to dress that way on the outside. The more fun you can have with yourself, the better off everything will be. (Come now, must you always sink to the seediest meaning?)
By exhibiting personal strength, confidence and a laid-back attitude, you’ll maximize your potential for good clean, and perhaps not so clean, fun. (Think as seedy as you wish here.)
The entire week should bode quite well for whatever you have in mind.
Virgo
August 23 to September 22
A difficult or forbidden relationship could be bubbling to the top of your life’s stew.
Everything’s right for someone you work with, deal with on a professional level, have a specifically defined connection with, or simply shouldn’t be fooling around with, to suddenly become the most attractive person you’ve ever met. Adding to the difficulty will be the possibility that they’ll find you equally as delectable.
No taste testing allowed, at least not this week. It’ll certainly be all right to stir the pot a bit but don’t get carried away. Allowing the Valentine frenzy to guide you could put you in some rather interesting but definite trouble.
Keep everything on a friendly, light level and you’ll do better throughout the week.
If you happen to be in a committed relationship at this time, pull back slightly and don’t appear to be too needy. It’ll help.
Thursday through the weekend will be good times for love.
Libra
September 23 to October 22
Someone’s trying to get your attention.
This may or may not be someone you’re interested in. Add to this that they probably don’t have the skills or talents to let you know how much they care and you could have a full-fledged romantic game of hide and seek going on.
If you find a box of candy, a card, a vase filled with flowers, edible underwear or some other secret gift professing lust and love, try to figure out who it is. The sooner the better for all concerned.
If this secret someone is a person you’d like to nibble sweets with, let them know. If however, you’d rather rub live tarantulas on your face than play with this person, you should also let them know. Doing so tactfully is not only advised but is the groovy, nice thing to do.
If someone’s been nagging at your heartstrings, you’d do well to let them know at this time. Be subtle and noncommittal, but be open.
Monday, Tuesday, Friday and Saturday are your best days to play.
Scorpio
October 23 to November 21
The possibility of a new playmate has arrived.
It’s important to understand the nature of this potential relationship. It probably won’t end up with matching ID bracelets, coordinated outfits, wedding registries or any of that. It could be less than emotionally fulfilling but has all the makings of an intensely enjoyable sexual liaison.
This may be someone you already know but also look for someone new to come your way. They don’t want to own you, be owned, or even get to know you all that well. All they want is you.
Obviously, if you happen to already be in a committed relationship, you’ll need to decide how best to deal with this.
You should be contemplative regarding this regardless of whether or not you happen to be committed. There’s a certain vulnerability that you exude and you need to be absolutely certain that you’re not being taken advantage of.
The key to having an excellent week is to understand the true nature of the energies surrounding you and to act consciously from there.
The whole week could be filled with excitement.
Sagittarius
November 22 to December 21
To say that you’ll be lucky in love is an understatement.
Of course, for this to manifest you’ll have to be available to others. Crawling back into your cave, bungalow, condo, secret panic room or whatever, isn’t going to cut it if you want to play and have fun.
Be on the lookout for interesting prospects and don’t be too shy when it comes to approaching others in a friendly and respectful manner. Coming on too strongly will make you appear desperate and a bit frightening. In order to minimize this energy, don’t take yourself too seriously.
This is a week to be casual and to leave formalities to someone else. By relaxing, acting relaxed, dressing relaxed — you’ll allow someone else to be relaxed in your presence.
If you’ve had your eye on someone for some time, this is your chance to make your move. Follow my advice and have fun.
Other than Tuesday, the whole week should be fine when it comes to love and romance.
Capricorn
December 22 to January19
Although you may have many opportunities to frolic, think twice before doing so.
Frolicking is a relative term, but when it comes to anything that seems to be a bit too lighthearted, casual or overtly sexual, you need to be cautious. The energies are such that you could be left heartbroken and cynical.
When it comes to love, there’s nothing wrong with a bit of cynicism, although this week you’ll be more vulnerable than usual, even though you may not feel it. I can’t blame this on Valentine’s Day or the immense hype surrounding it. It may have to do with a sense of restlessness or loneliness that’s been brewing within you.
Stay conscious of your vulnerabilities, don’t become prey for predatory interests and you’ll do just fine.
This would be a good time to go out with friends and enjoy the party like atmosphere of the lower downtown area.
Monday and the weekend are best for connecting.
Aquarius
January 20 to February 18
Love could be way too much work to be worthwhile at this time.
Yes, I fully understand that this is Valentine’s week and that you’ve made plans, and that your hearts been opened and that you’re ready for romance to come barreling down the pike like a convoy of big wheelers hauling the livestock of love into your life. Have you ever seen the side of a livestock truck?
I’m not trying to be negative or a throw wet blanket on your passions, but since you’re reading this column, I must presume you’re looking for my advice on the subject. You can take it or leave it. I’d suggest leaving it this week and not trying to become involved in anything new or to enhance anything that already exists.
Be conservative when it comes to emotions and romance, and I believe the week will turn out much better.
Yes, there’s the chance of meeting someone who could make you tingle all over but make them wait to practice that tingling move.
If you absolutely must do it, play on Saturday.
Pisces
February 19 to March 20
You’ll have to work hard at love to make it work.
Someone will respond well to a little extra exertion when it comes to professing your undying, emotional servitude. If you already happen to be in a romantic relationship, make a grand gesture in order to vent your love-passions.
Take your intended out to dinner, a movie, a night on the town or whatever it takes in order to let them know that you really do care about them. Flowers are certainly an option but if they appear too contrived, they’ll sink the love boat.
Try not to think of this as exertion. Think of it as an exercise in creativity and in letting someone know that you’re willing to go to great lengths to keep them in your life.
By the way, if someone isn’t appreciating you at this time, give this strategy a try. If they don’t respond, it may be time to find someone who does appreciate your gifts.
Wednesday, Friday and the weekend are good times to put on the show of love, as long as it’s sincere.
