Aries, March 21 to April 19
To flaunt your wit, relax a bit.
The spotlight of love’s shining and the steady glow of romance can warm these chilly, fall nights. Your words and attitude will be the key to finding love, sex and the possibility of a long-term connection. Don’t shy away from being bold with what you want, and you’ll probably get it.
The only word of warning is that you need to be discerning before hopping into the love sack with anyone. There’s a strong chance of any physical connection becoming permanent, or semi-permanent as time evolves. This could work in your favor as a solid relationship or it could become an annoying obsession.
The whole week is a good time to flirt and stay alert.
Taurus, April 20 to May 20
Be bigger than life.
You’ll get great results by being outgoing and trying to capture the title of “Life of the Party, 2006.” This means finding a party or two to compete for the title in. A strong personality is called for as well as a sense of humor. Flirting is advised, as well as flinging as many double entendres as you can.
Wry conversation will go a long way but don’t overdo it. Get your point across and then wait to see what else comes across. You won’t have to wait too long in order to know if you’re going to get results or not. This will enable you to mingle until you get the tingle. If it doesn’t come, move on.
Wednesday through the weekend will be your best time to shine.
Gemini, May 21 to June 20
Watch for quicksand along the trail of romance.
This could be a tricky week, in more than one way. If you think it’s been tricky before now, just wait. The main issue will be your tendency to be vulnerable. Although you may have had times where you were too open in the past, this week, you could be more so.
Poking the ground with a stick to dodge the mire won’t cut it. You’ll need to be ultra careful and try not to overextend yourself emotionally. If you can get involved with someone on a casual level, all the better. Don’t anticipate more, well, at least not too much more, and you could have fun. If in doubt, tone it down.
Monday and Sunday will be the safest days to traverse the perilous peat bog of romance.
Cancer, June 21 to July 22
Jump for Joy, unless Joy isn’t your type.
This is a great week for love and romance but you’ll need to get out there and stop being so shy. No one’s going to buy the quiet, demure act this week. You’ll find that your essence is going to ooze, especially at work and in the real world. Watch out for waggling tongues or you’ll end up as the latest soap opera.
Meeting worthwhile love interests will be relatively easy if you assert your energies in the right way. Don’t be afraid and stay away from those who don’t fit your idea of what a good relationship should be. In other words, stay grounded.
Tuesday, Friday and the weekend will be the best times to play.
Leo, July 23 to August 22
Let them come to you.
Any hint of urgency, dependence, anxiety, quiet despair, stoic suffering or any other typical response to love will be as attractive as a vinegar-based deodorant. Stay away from all emotional indulgences if you want the best results. Don’t be aloof, but don’t be a goof either.
You may find yourself in a social engagement that tries your patience. This may be a party or gathering that isn’t at all what you consider to be fun. Don’t throw up your arms, or anything else for that matter. Give it a chance and you may be in for a nice surprise in the form of a new love interest. Darn, I’ve ruined the surprise.
Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday will be the best days to attract new playmates.
Virgo, August 23 to September 22
Nah, it ain’t worth it.
You may think you’ve got what it takes to be lucky in love but the stars, cards and geomantic dice all foretell another tale. This is a time to be less adventurous and to stay within the lanes of “Easy Does it Highway.” (It’s not too far from Niwot.)
Don’t give up completely, not by any means. Doing so will only depress you but you need to be aware of the dominant energy and its effect on you. Playing is fine as long as you don’t look for too much more for now. This means not falling head over heels for anyone, at least not yet. You can venture carefully into the world of dalliance as long as you remember not to bring up the whole gooey love thing.
If you do decide to play, do so on the weekend.
Libra, September 23 to October 22
Be prepared.
Is this the Scout’s motto? Why yes it is. I was a Scout when I was only a lad, but that’s a tale for another day. You don’t have to dress in khaki and wear a bandana in order to have fun than rubbing things together to create friction. If you do a good deed, you may ignite flames of passion with a fellow camper before the week’s through.
You’ll have numerous opportunities to play, and possibly exchange bodily fluids. As this is the case, you really should be conscious of everything you do and not leave anything to chance. The possibility of a complication due to close encounters is very high. This really isn’t the time to take risks, so have fun but do so with clarity.
Monday, Tuesday and Thursday will be the best days to pitch a love tent or two.
Scorpio, October 23 to November 21
Stay cool and calm and you’ll stand a better chance of getting hot and bothered.
By being centered and unfettered by emotional baggage, you’ll be well on your way to a strong week when it comes to romance. This can manifest in the world of hearts and flowers as well as more casual connections.
If you happen to be in a relationship already, be willing to provide an energy of steamy, romantic ardor. It’s all about communicating your deepest desires and needs for a good relationship and not just a roll in the oats. (Oats are better for your cholesterol than hay.) You’ll be pleasantly surprised if you give the old seduction ploy a try.
If you aren’t connected, don’t be dissuaded. Be visible and go places where you’ll be noticed.
The weekend will be the best time to play.
Sagittarius, November 22 to December 21
Say it with authority and integrity.
Love and romance will prosper if you’re able and willing to talk the talk and walk the walk. This need to be honest and strong will translate into an attractive energy that will have you at the forefront of any social gathering or meeting of the hearts.
This is a wonderful time to take in the online dating scene and to exchange cryptic anagrams with those you want to play with. You may even find that such electronic flirting is the doorway to a more in-depth relationship that blossoms as time marches on.
Speaking of marching, get away from your usual locale for the best results. If asked to visit a new place or two, do so.
The whole week has what it takes, if you have what it takes.
Capricorn, December 22 to January 19
Be as flamboyant as you can muster up the nerve to be.
If you want to have any fun at all, sitting this one out isn’t an option. Get out the Flower Power outfit, the old Peace Symbol pendant, Ankh ring and head out to have fun. Well, dress this way only if you’re heading to a costume party and only if the items mentioned didn’t belong to you originally.
The key is to be a little full of yourself and to maximize your basic persona. Don’t hesitate to smile a mile and to yuk it up with those you play with. Being shy or uncertain of yourself will result in boredom and your wasting a valuable week of fun and games. Remember to stay loose and have fun or you’ll come off as a blowhard.
Parties are obvious places to have a good time. The only day not to play will be Thursday.
Aquarius, January 20 to February 18
Don’t be duped.
You could become a victim when it comes to love and romance. This isn’t the right time for you to be overly trusting and willing to give all or nothing. Be hesitant if you find yourself in a situation that seems to be too good to be true. You may feel as if you have no choice but to jump at the chance but don’t. If it’s real, it’ll be there later.
On the other hand, you can safely get involved in a light relationship and not worry about getting into too much trouble. This means staying as far away from falling in love as you can. If you’re the type who falls for everyone you connect with, check into a monastery for a few days.
Monday, Tuesday and Thursday will be good days to play safely.
Pisces, February 19 to March 20
You’re about to have an interesting week.
Love’s tapping on the door and you should be willing to at least crack the door a touch. You don’t have to let things get out of hand but you’ll have a lot more fun if you’re willing to play and let loose. Plan on meeting someone new who makes you fizzy all over. You’ll know them when you meet them because, well, you’ll be fizzing.
As many social events as you can wiggle yourself into should be tackled. You might want to wiggle into your sexiest outfit as well. This is a time to play and not be seated in the corner by anybody. Get up and dance, unless you’re like me and the sight of your dancing causes a stampede for the exits.
The whole week’s good for having a wonderful time.
