ARIES (March 21- April 19)
Both hedonists and committed lovers are in paradise. However, lovers of all stripes and situations could face challenges. Maybe people aren't listening, or maybe they're reminding you of what you'd rather forget. Romance finds you in excellent physical and emotional health, ready to make up for lost time. But secret trysts must be really secret, or all is lost. Brief affairs happen easily, and those seeking deeper understanding of their beloved will also find it now.

TAURUS (April 20- May 20)
This is prime time for relationship discussions. Dark suspicions are forgiven. Lovers with mysterious, intriguing lives are happy to settle into what passes for normal. Romantic issues find happy resolutions, but those still dealing with an ex or a less than satisfying closure can expect some difficulties. Then you launch into nearly two weeks of connubial bliss or exciting dates. Celebrate your senses -- let someone treat you as the fabulous, precious being that you are.

GEMINI (May 21- June 21)
It's hard to control yourself with the one you love or desire. Is seeking satisfaction a crime? There are some that would answer 'yes'. Avoid them. Romantic chickens come home to roost, shutting the coop to lock out an interfering world. But wrestle with a so-called love that may not be everything you thought it would be. Don't despair. In certain ways, reality is better than illusion. Brief affairs and fast company keep things lively for people who like those games. But a major lifestyle change feels like a good idea.

CANCER (June 22- July 22)
Contrary to expectations, love triumphs. Your skill at pleasing others comes back to reward you. Meanwhile, relationships in transition get a healthy dose of truth. After all, you can't run from your own heart. Restraint and privacy are major issues. If it's too soon, you'll wait or at least keep a lid on your private life. This is difficult when young lovers find each other and older couples revisit the hot feelings of their youth. Gossip, bragging and ostentatious flirting come back to bite you.

LEO (July 23- August 22)
The right person is madly in love with you. Whether this is a quick fling or a lifelong journey, it's a honeymoon at first. After that, the vivid colors might fade when time, patience or money runs out. You experience an emotional growth spurt or a fall from social grace, depending on your point of view. Charmers struggle with commitment. Idealists surrender to physical need. The concept of fairness in love and war is both patently absurd and universally true. When you pull your head out of the clouds you’ll find your lost soul mate or renew your vows.

VIRGO (August 23 – September 22)
Romantic reality bursts into blossom. You have plans for that certain someone, and he or she matches up perfectly. Satisfied lovers undergo minor personality changes. Instead of pushing, enjoy the prize that you've earned. As for those who find themselves alone, love might knock when you least expect it. Don't worry, you look fine. Couples planning families or building houses review their plans, and find everything in order. Unpredictable sweethearts surprise each other many times.

LIBRA (September 23 – October 22)
The first ten days of April are a sustained rush of passion and vision. Romance begins exactly as you hoped it would. Relationships are smooth and easy. No feelings are hurt. Wedding or move-in dates are set in stone. The business of living your life was never this much fun. But if you're still waiting for a formal invitation, expect to jump through hoops, especially if a certain someone's parents are involved. Permission is granted and it's a fresh start all around. Lonely hearts ride an upward curve of good luck and good vibes.

SCORPIO (October 23- November 21)
Singles stay out of love's way, while partners move to opposite edges of the bed. These prickly days end with satisfying closure on the 3rd. Something about the other person charms you so much that further anger is impossible. You turn into the sexiest creature that ever strutted the earth. Anyone going by appearances alone will be dazzled. Commitment issues loom large. If one party cares more about togetherness, things could be difficult. Midmonth brings shifting expectations, a crash course in maturity and responsibility that leaves better lovers and wiser people at the other end.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22- December 21)
If you fall in love the world approves. Everybody's smile reflects your own happiness. But ecstatic, self-absorbed people talk too much, and these should not be public details. Romantic promises are fulfilled. Dreams come true. Those seem like cliches in other people's lives, but you use the same language when it happens to you. Social animals savor the single life, although nature designed these events to draw you into partnership. Don't let anyone push you before you're ready to jump.

CAPRICORN (December 22- January 19)
A current love interest learns more about a previous relationship. If everyone is lucky, this just makes the subject of these stories more interesting. You find yourself socializing with wonderful people. On the other hand, attempts to win hearts and minds might be misunderstood. Then the 7th launches a week and a half when it's truly all about you. You're important to the right person. He or she will gladly wait. Nobody hurts anybody else, especially when present and future are all one big, happy blur.

AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18)
It's hard to trust anyone, including you. Your libido casts strange shadows over your conscience. Waiting is the best thing to do, and therefore the hardest. True romance inspires public and private celebration on the, although uninvolved parties return unchanged to their corners after wishing the happy couple well. There's nothing else to do for unhappy friends, so you might as well cocoon. Tour your favorite places and have a good laugh at the things you find ridiculous.

PISCES (February 19- March 20)
Romance takes you on a wild ride. This might not be so good if you're with the wrong person, visiting the wrong place or flaking out on people who are not amused. Does a little fun deserve such a big price tag? But it's worth the twinkle in your eye if you wake up in love. You knew you'd rock the boat once you found your soul mate. A controversial relationship splits a community into those for and against. Make peace.
