Ah,
love! Who among us hasn't dreamed of the real thing; soul mates
together for all time? Happiness and joy with ease for eternity?
Some day, somewhere, my Prince (or Princess) will come... surely?
In
all my years as an astrologer, relationships and the search
for love has been the number one concern of most of my clients.
Questions like, "What sign is my best match?" and "What does
my chart say about my love life?" are among the most common.
These inquiries are made with passion and longing. People want
to pair up. Why not? It's completely natural and extremely satisfying
once you've worked through the various stages.
So,
this information is written especially for everybody's Star
Sign. Of course, there are many signs in your own personal horoscope,
but - hopefully - this text can help you to recognize which
energies flow easily with yours and how to best work with those
that don't. And, of course, if you are attracted to someone,
there is usually a reason. Your Moon or Venus could be in his
or her Star Sign or you could share many other personal planets
(living with someone is particularly easy if your Moons are
compatible). So, if you don't happen to agree with what I am
saying, you are probably right. Good luck!
ARIES:
March 20th - April 20th
If you are in love with an Aries man or woman, give this person
flattery and firmness. Aries like to be noticed and will bask
in the glow of your affection and attention. Slightly self-centered,
this individual thinks and talks in the "I" mode (not presuming
to speak for another). Able to take care of him(her)self, this
being believes that you can take care of yourself, too.
Because
this is one of the strongest signs, Aries can be incredibly
pushy. If you want to live happily ever after with this soul,
you are going to have to learn how to push back. Aries doesn't
actually want to run over you, but this person thrives on challenges
and enjoys the fight. There is generally an assumption made
that you like the fight, too. Using your wit will impress this
being a great deal more than resorting to a physical challenge.
Aries also love the chase. They enjoy being in the driver's
seat and pursuing a potential lover with craft and skill. You
will lose this being's interest in a hurry if you are too easily
or quickly won. If you know how to spar, you will have better
luck with Aries. Being somewhat elusive, especially in the beginning,
is like issuing a challenge to this toreador. Aries need physical
activity and they love to compete. If you are not a particularly
physical person yourself, be sure to encourage your honey to
work off this energy on his or her own. You will find you have
fewer arguments as a result.
One
thing that you can count on with this lover, however, is a short
grudge. This person has too much to do to waste time on nursing
wounds and will actually forget almost any trespass quite quickly.
Don't expect him(her) to read your mind if you are holding onto
one, because it will be totally misread. Just as the rain washes
away the dust from the road, a good night's sleep or the passage
of a few days' time generally cleanses the cobwebs from this
soul's mind.
TAURUS:
April 20th - May 21st
If
you are in love with a Taurus man or woman, understand that
this person is a one-woman man or a one-man woman (unless Gemini
predominates elsewhere in the natal chart). Primarily interested
in security, this being is looking to settle down and doesn't
need a lot of movement. Preferring routine activities and traditional,
established pleasures, this person is happy to continue on with
whatever he or she has been doing for years. You will need to
be able to fit somewhat into this already settled routine.
You
will attract his or her attention by giving gifts of quality;
ticky-tacky is a turnoff for these practical souls. Known for
their good taste, you will be more interesting to this being
if you value yourself. Paying attention to your clothing and
hair will help to show him or her that you understand the importance
of appearance. Taureans love to stay home and get cozy in their
nests. Their idea of a good time is to rent a bunch of videos
and veg out on the couch or in the easy chair. They also enjoy
gourmet foods and fine wines and will often have highly developed
culinary abilities. These souls can definitely be won over through
their stomachs, so dig up your best recipes and give it a try.
They do, however, sometimes resemble their animal, the bull,
in that they cannot be pushed; you will see some real digging
in if you try. Gentle persuasion is a much better tool with
these people. You also should be aware that, in general, they
often need to ponder each word that you speak before being able
to give you an answer. Allowing these souls a moment to think
before expecting a response will result in a much happier relationship.
Taureans
also have a real need for security; you won't make points by
squandering assets or avoiding saving. These beings need to
have a home base which belongs to them and where they know they
can retreat to in times of trouble. A nest egg for rainy days
is also an essential here.
GEMINI:
May 21st - June 21st
If you are in love with a Gemini man or woman, give him or her
elusivity and a lot of space alone. This individual needs a
great deal of stimulation to stay interested and you will be
much more appealing if you have some interests and friends of
your own. Detachment is also a help here and you must guard
against sentimentality with this soul. Remembering that this
person is, for the most part, a thinker rather than a feeler
will help to keep this relationship in perspective. Changing
your hair, your dress, or your schedule is another way to keep
this one off guard. Spontaneity is extremely valued by this
sign so buying theatre tickets or home plate seats from time
to time can make you more attractive. If you can drop what you
are doing at a moment's notice in order to travel up the coast
for a romantic weekend, you will definitely score a hit here.
The
ability to have fun is another must as it is practically a religion
for this individual. If you can handle a relationship that is
light and loose, you will be happier with this soul than if
you are too attached. Remember, too, that Gemini is a sign of
duality. You may sometimes feel as though you are living with
two different people here and you never can tell which one will
present itself. Patience comes in handy if you prefer one twin
to the other. It also helps to realize that this being is inherently
restless. You will need to be able to keep pace with a good
deal of movement around the neighborhood as well as within your
home. Don't expect the furniture to stay in one place with this
sign, either. He(she) will soon find a better place to put the
couch, the rug, the glass cabinet, or the pots and pans and
you will be perceived as boring and dull if you complain. If
you think of this type of living as exciting, you will be very
happy here.
CANCER:
June 21st - July 22nd
If you are in love with a Cancer man or woman, give him or her
your understanding. This is a sensitive soul who needs to be
brought out of the shell with attention and discussion. Patience
is important here as often (but not always) this individual
is quiet or shy. He or she will only share innermost thoughts
after a great deal of trust has been established. A Cancer lover
is a deeply feeling person. Once you have secured his or her
love, you will be placed first, above all others, in everything
that you do. You will be expected to return the favor.
Somewhat
possessive, this man or woman is prepared to dedicate life to
you and wants to know that you appreciate it. Passion is also
extremely important here. Although you will be encouraged to
keep the matter between the two of you, sexy underwear and satin
sheets are a hit. Your pleasure is extremely important to this
being's happiness so don't be afraid to explain what you like
(diplomatically). And, return the favor by asking in kind. This
person is really a homebody and will work tirelessly to fluff
up the nest. Preferring the company of the clan to large crowds,
a Cancer lover is often willing to invest in a swimming pool
or hot tub. Or, you do well when you share many sports or activities
such as skiing, sailing, or bowling.
A
cabin on the lake or a mountainside condominium are also attractive
to this man or woman; the only other necessity is to have you
right by his or her side .... This is one honey who can also
be counted upon to help out with household chores. Dishes, dusting,
sweeping, hedge trimming, and lawn mowing are almost akin to
lovemaking (love of home) in his or her eyes. All you need to
do is be 100% loyal and you will be treated like the King or
Queen of the Castle. It's quite a small price to pay.
LEO:
July 22nd - August 23rd
If you are in love with a Leo man or woman, the most important
thing you can give him or her is your attention. This is one
mate who will charm and caress you, make passionate love with
you, dance with you into the wee hours of the morning, give
you the Sun, the Moon and the Stars, and all you have to do
is notice! But, notice you must. It is true that most Leos need
pats on the back as much as the rest of us require air to breathe.
This is because, for all their vim and vigor and outward confidence,
Leos are actually quite shy and vulnerable on the inside. In
fact, it can be said that the louder and more brash a Leo sounds,
the more insecure he or she is feeling at the time.
A
Leo lover is loyal, warm, generous, and fun. This is one individual
who truly knows how to have a good time, and he or she wants
you to be included in it. You are a very special audience to
this person and you are treated like royalty. A Leo is not particularly
interested in dating just anybody and you must stand out from
the crowd to garner this one's attention. He or she wants both
of you to shine. You will be appreciated even more if you don't
mind letting this honey glow in the limelight. A great storyteller,
this one has a natural ability to draw a crowd of beaming faces.
Jealousy doesn't go over too well here. You needn't worry overly
much about losing his or her affections; once a Leo gives his(her)
heart, loyalty comes right along with it. While this mate likes
to make dramatic statements, ticky-tacky does not do. Gifts
should be of quality and you are amazed at the ones showered
upon you. Compliments keep them coming.
A
fixed sign, this honey sometimes may become set in his/her ways.
Personal opinions are very important to this lover and it may
be hard to change this premeditated mind. Gentle persuasion
works best here as well as pointing out the better aspects of
his/her argument. You can expect a lot from this lover. He or
she has a way of keeping life interesting and movement and action
are constant companions. If you are looking for a good time
spelled F-U-N, you have certainly found it here.
VIRGO:
August 23rd - September 22nd
If you love a Virgo, give him or her attention to detail. Some
- but not all - Virgos are neatniks and cannot stand living
in a mess. Others need for you to acknowledge their ideas or
accomplishments. But all will be fussy about something, and
you will keep this one happy by discovering wherein lies the
pet peeve and steering clear of it. It is best if you realize
that this individual has a real need for order in some aspect
of his or her life.
This
person can be counted upon to be consistent in a particular
area for you, and feels cheated if the favor is not returned.
Because a Virgo is able to see the potential perfection in everything,
don't be offended if little comments arise about getting the
lint off your sweater or re-working your resumé. He(she) just
wants you to look your best and is happy to help you do so.
Remember, too, that this person sees life largely through an
intellectual window. He or she can always be reasoned with but
may have a hard time dealing with displays of emotion. This
doesn't mean that your feelings aren't important; it just indicates
that you may need to explain them rather than expect this honey
to intuitively understand.
A
Virgo lover likes to know and follow certain ground rules so
you probably should spend some time discussing his or her expectations
as well as your own at the beginning of this relationship. As
long as you keep the lines of communication open, this should
ward off any potential misunderstandings in the future. You
won't, however, find a more loyal mate anywhere. This is one
honey who keeps all of his(her) loving for you alone and expects
you to do the same. Fresh sheets and clean skin turn this person
on more than fancy perfumes or sexy underwear, too. Respect
for this one's person and belongings keeps him or her right
by your side.
LIBRA:
September 23rd - October 23rd
If you are in love with a Libran man or woman, give him or her
your attention and your company. This is one individual who
truly wants to share as much as possible in life and will be
a faithful and dedicated partner if given the chance. You may
notice, too, that he(she) always strives to be inclusive of
not only you, but friends and acquaintances as well. This person
truly needs interactions with others and desires a full social
life above many other things. Because of his(her) desire for
balance, you may also see some striking dualities here. Soft
lights and classical music could be interspersed with wild dancing
revelries to rock and roll; each Libra expresses this aspect
in his or her own way. Whatever the oppositions at work here,
they will play and interplay in equal amounts. If you are not
as comfortable with one side, just wait a bit until the other
reappears. A touch of class and refinement works best here,
too.
This
is one individual who is singularly unimpressed with the grubby
or ordinary. Fine china and linen are generally preferred on
the table as are brand names in the clothing. Also, if you seek
to impress this person by sending flowers, exotic lilies and
tropical orchids work much better than a regular bunch of carnations.
Think elegant here. A Libran is also very concerned with appearance
and wants you to be proud of him(her). With excellent taste
and a superb sense of color, he(she) should be allowed to pick
out the shades and hues for the home and office. This individual
will often throw together some dramatic tints that you may not
appreciate until you actually see. You can be sure, however,
that this honey will never leave you lonely. He(she) understands
togetherness unlike most other signs and you would do well to
return the favor. Be careful, too, not to accept too many gratuities
without exchange as he(she) will be aware of the imbalance and
may harbor silent resentments in the future. Enjoying the fun,
sharing, and caring of this individual while giving back the
same will ensure a long, happy, and prosperous relationship
for both of you.
SCORPIO:
October 23rd - November 22nd
If you are in love with a Scorpio man or woman, give him or
her your full attention and devotion. Sharp as a tack, this
person definitely notices everything. You will be able to keep
no secrets here; this individual is an expert at ferreting them
out. Truthfulness is well appreciated by this mate.
Emotions
are extremely important to a Scorpio and you must be willing
to explore the range (the valleys as well as the peaks) in order
to keep this partner happy. Passionate and possessive, he(she)
needs a lot of physical expression. This mate often even defines
his(her) relationship to you by the amount of actual physical
connection. If you are not interested in touchy-feely, you might
want to look elsewhere for true happiness. Loyalty is also very
valuable to this individual as he(she) will want to look at
you as being his(hers) alone. Should you stumble in this area,
you may be forgiven but don't think that your Scorpio lover
will forget (with such a sharp mind, little is forgotten). Of
course, this works both ways and a more devoted mate would be
hard to find. You have in this partner an extremely strong personality.
This relationship works best if you can maintain some of your
own strength and keep things equal. Finding other arenas to
excel in by yourself can also help here as very few signs can
successfully compete with Scorpio.
Don't
ever try to force something on this mate, either; coaxing works
better than brute force here. Be aware, too, that Scorpio's
power is often of the hidden variety. You mustn't take this
mate at face value only. If you delight in challenges, enjoy
the world of emotions and are also a sturdy and strong personality,
you may have just your cup of tea here. This is one individual
who is going places and, if you can keep up, would be happy
to take you along.
SAGITTARIUS:
Novemeber 22nd - December 21st
If you are in love with a Sagittarius man or woman, give him
or her freedom and honesty. This is one honey who will resist
any and all efforts to be pinned down too definitively and you
would do best to understand this from the start. He(she) needs
plenty of rope. Don't expect a quick commitment here either;
this lover is fairly independent and enjoys his(her) own company.
You will never be bored with a Sagittarius partner though. This
individual is interested in almost everything and delights in
sharing knowledge with you and everyone else.
"Flirt"
could be a middle name here. Jealousy is a no-no as the exchange
of conversation is nearly as important as air and food to this
person. Friendly as a new puppy, he(she) meanders about collecting
and dispensing data with all comers. Physical fitness is also
important here. Often possessing natural athletic abilities,
he(she) can be found hiking, biking, running, or skiing, and
will want you to keep right up alongside. You will have many
joint memories of wilderness treks, roaring campfires, and starlit
nights. Adventuresomeness is quite near the top of the qualities
you must have to be of any interest to this enterprising individual.
The meek need not apply. Your main challenges here may be learning
to live with the occasional disorganization of this busy soul
and the directness which could be construed as lack of tact.
You
must understand that this person abhors dishonesty and is quite
incapable of participating in it. Too many concurrent projects
can scatter his(her) energy but your encouragement may be all
that's needed to keep the number reasonable. You have found
a dynamic partner in this mate. Enjoy the wit and repartee,
explore new worlds and lost civilizations together and talk
until the wee hours of the morning. With this individual, you
can have fun!
CAPRICORN:
December 21st - January 20th
If you are in love with a Capricorn man or woman, give him or
her encouragement and support. This is one honey who will work
diligently to provide you with the best that money can buy and
all you have to do is notice. Quiet and competent, he or she
goes about business with a professional attitude and a desire
to please. You are always on his(her) mind even though you may
not be hearing this often. Pats on the back are appreciated
here. You do, however, need to realize that career is like lifeblood
to this individual. He(she) sees personal, professional work
much like a husband looks upon his bride. There will be late
nights at the office, business trips, or working weekends, and
you will be expected to understand. Of course, all of this is
done for your benefit so you will definitely be reaping some
of the rewards.
Order
is also important here. Dishes left in the sink and loose socks
cluttering up the bedroom floor will definitely be a turn-off.
Helpful hints from this individual are not meant as a criticism;
he(she) just wants to assist in your perfection. You will also
be expected to honor all dates and appointments; this man or
woman is completely punctual and reliable and wants you to be
the same. Knowledge of proper etiquette might come in handy,
too. With this mate, you have found a partner who is going places
and is willing to take you along. It won't happen on the instant/credit
plan, though, as he(she) truly wants to earn it and own it personally.
Because this individual is sometimes shy, you may need to get
this individual talking in order to avoid the buildup of resentments.
You are asked to contribute a lot here, but much is also given.
Together, the two of you will reach for the stars.
AQUARIUS:
Janaury 20th - February 19th
If you are in love with an Aquarius, give him or her a very
long leash and your respect. This is one of the most freedom-oriented
of all the signs and this individual will not tolerate nagging
or any cramping of his(her) style. You must understand that
here you have found a person who truly looks at the world from
a different perspective and needs to be supported in this endeavor.
Bright and original, this partner sees the world as it will
be or should be and feels somewhat personally responsible to
bring the future about. Some Aquarians feel so strongly about
this that they are almost revolutionary in thought and behavior.
Aquarius, as a rule, is also much more comfortable in the realm
of thought than that of emotion. This person actually has the
ability to detach from his(her) body and view conversations
and situations from above. You needn't worry about judgment,
though, as he(she) is extremely tolerant of everything except
intolerance.
Friends
are important to this individual and you can expect a steady
stream either through your house or his(her) business. You have
found here, too, a partner that truly seeks an equal relationship.
He or she wants to stand on his(her) own and wants you to do
the same. This is the eleventh sign of the zodiac and if you
look at the number 11, it represents masculine and feminine
- separate - but also side by side and equal. As we are currently
proceeding into the great "Age of Aquarius," this is good news
for us all. Flexibility is also a must with this mate as he(she)
enjoys last-minute and/or unexpected surprises. "Boring" will
not be a word you use to describe this relationship as he(she)
keeps you wondering what's going to happen next. If you are
looking for a partner with whom to have a fair and interesting
match, you have found it here.
PISCES:
February 19th - March 20th
If you are in love with a Pisces man or woman, give him or her
attention and sympathy. You have met here an individual who
will quietly listen to the tales of your days - good and bad
- and desires only the same consideration in return. Gentle
and caring, he(she) provides a safe haven in any kind of weather
and can be counted upon to get you back on track. Make sure
that you do the same. Little gifts are greatly appreciated here
and they need not be expensive. The idea of the token of your
affection keeps this individual smiling and returning the favor
with surprises of his(her) own. Snuggle-bunnies (hugs) or other
displays of tenderness are also essential for true happiness
with this mate. You may need to make a conscientious effort
to keep him or her talking about his(her) feelings.
Though
deeply emotional inside, this particular sign - more than others
- is prone to suffer in silence rather than speak out about
personal irritations or let-downs. Disaster lurks down that
road as unexpressed emotions carry a punch far greater than
expressed ones. Make sure that the lines of communication stay
open and you can avoid this pitfall. Don't be alarmed when this
honey desires to spend time alone; it is essential for his(her)
mental health. Pisces doesn't have as strong an aura as many
of the other signs do and needs to re-charge the batteries without
anyone else around from time to time. Kindness also pays off
in this match. Often polite, he(she) generally is not fond of
harsh words or rude phrases. You have found here a person who
prizes serenity above all else and one who will appreciate your
efforts to keep the waters calm. Once acquired, this bond will
be long-lived and true blue.
