HOROSCOPES

ARIES MAR 21- APR 20

Do you have a pile of jobs that you have started but not finished? Your motivation and concentration is boosted this week, so you can try to bring a range of projects to satisfying conclusions. Don’t waste the opportunity. You are set for an amorous time and romance is calling.

TAURUS APR 21- MAY 21

Romantic vibes are high, as love planet Venus links up with Neptune. Focus your attention on your lover, as you give this person the right royal treatment via a thoughtful gift or a candlelit dinner. For singles, love and work are linked so passionate feelings may arise.

GEMINI MAY 22-JUNE 22

Gregarious Geminis love to chat, so this is a perfect time to tell loved ones how much you really care. Inspiration for the week is from artist Yoko Ono: “The regret of my life is that I have not said ‘I love you’ often enough.” Be wary of hasty words and impulsive actions.

CANCER JUNE 23-JULY 23

Attached Crabs – you are feeling extra romantic as you lavish attention on your partner, wear your heart on your sleeve or play out a secret fantasy. Singles – don’t base your self-esteem on whether you have a partner. You possess a multitude of talents and a kind nature.

LEO JULY 24- AUG 23

Prepare for a busy romantic time. Why not initiate a special rendezvous? Singles – to find true love, you need to be brave. As Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu said: “Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.”

VIRGO AUG 24- SEPT 23

At the moment, love is a serious business. So take note of writer William Barclay: “Love always involves responsibility, and love always involves sacrifice.” Singles – it’s time to give superficial suitors the flick. Instead, look for a lover with real character and depth.

LIBRA SEPT 24-OCT 23

Librans are addicted to love in all its forms – romantic, platonic and universal. Whether you are attached, searching for a soulmate or happily single, this is an appropriate time to reflect that love really does make the world go around and it’s the glue that binds us all.

SCORPIO OCT 24-NOV 22

When it comes to love, resist the urge to be controlling. Attached Scorpios – avoid the temptation to be bossy at home. Singles – stop looking for love in all the obvious places. Write a wish-list of the qualities you want in a partner, then wait for the magic to happen.

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23- DEC 21

It is time to be more proactive about your health, diet, fitness, and daily routine, but tread carefully with an unpredictable relative or neighbour, who may be stewing with a hidden grievance. Find a dream you can share and follow through with a supportive partner.

CAPRICORN DEC 22- JAN 20

Don’t take your partner for granted. If you do, then your neglected lover may go looking for attention elsewhere. (“Love doesn’t just sit there, like a stone. It has to be made like bread, remade all the time, made new.” – Ursula Le Guin.) So plan something special this week.

AQUARIUS JAN 21-FEB 19

You are at your amorous, quirky best this week. Spread your special kind of love around. Take note of composer Amadeus Mozart: “Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both go together in making genius. Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius.”

PISCES FEB 20- MAR 20

Love planet Venus hooks up with power planet Neptune so romance is in the air. But the energy is behind the scenes suggesting a private, magical time. As Carolyn Gold Heilbrun says: “Romance is the glamour which turns the dust of everyday life into a golden haze.”
