Relationships tips for 2010

WOMEN are from Venus; MEN are from Mars


Look for your friend or partners Star Sign and Gender here below for clues to their love, friendship and relating style.

Find out if they can be trusted. Are you destined for a life time of bliss, contentment, fun and laughter; or are you barking up the wrong tree?




ARIES:


MEN: Men with strong Aries energy are spontaneous and exciting. These are the ambitious, uncompromising Alpha males of the Zodiac. Assertive, and focused, Aries man does not take no for an answer. This chap is driven by his passions and is well able to segregate physical activity from emotional engagement, if you get my drift! Ruled by Mars, Aries man is dynamic and energetic between the sheets; but empathy is NOT his strong point. You may not get wined and dined ad infinitum, though you will get a good seeing to, if you pardon the expression. Not the most refined sensibility, this man IS capable of curbing his desires in order to learn some finesse. But this only happens when he has fallen deeply in love. Apart from that, this guy is hormonally driven and is quite happy to undertake a new connection based solely on a person’s appearance.


WOMEN: This feisty lady needs no seducing. Aries female is fully in touch with her carnal desires and needs very little coaxing to get busy between the sheets. This little lady suits herself and she is not likely to suppress her hormonal responses once she has set her sights on you. Even if she is spoken for, she is quite capable of the odd liaison along the way. I’m not saying she inevitably WILL; but she sure as hell MIGHT if the fancy takes her. This woman is very masculine and dynamic with her love making. Not afraid to take the lead, Aries woman is as good at the love ’em and leave ’em game as the next man. With strong sexual drives as her defining quality, Aries woman is not big on emotional drama. She is independent and does not need too much input. Some men may mistrust this and find their hearts’ challenged in the face of such self-sufficiency. Hurts doesn’t it!


TAURUS:


MEN: Taurus man is a supremely gorgeous lover who will seduce you in subtle ways. But be warned! The Zodiac Bull is a flirt, who will invariably test the water with many of the females in his domain. Taurus man is intrinsically loyal and hates to risk his comfort zone. But, he is not beyond indulging those sensual desires if he feels he can get away with it. If Taurus is not free to act, he is likely to leave you dangling, having fired up your hormones to a torturous level. Taurus is useless at failure and rejection and is likely to play the field in these circumstances. But keep him satiated with lots of sex, intimacy and understanding, and the Zodiac Bull is loyal, fully relishing the Status Quo you provide. Taurus man is a passive creature who likes a dominant, independent mate. He is not particularly predatory, but boy, will he respond if you make the moves. Well, may be!


WOMEN: Taurus woman doesn’t ask for much; she wants it all! Wit, charm, sexual prowess, personality and a mischievous boyish outlook are all part of the package she requires. Think, you are in the running? Well to woo this little minx, you must also have a huge wad and be more than happy to indulge her every whim. She loves to leave you hanging on, and will play a merry devious game which leaves you eternally wrapped around that doll-like finger. Ms Taurus IS the marrying kind, but she also likes the bohemian groove until she has the man of her dreams finally pinned down. She will NOT marry for the sake of it. This female requires loyalty and devotion without the boredom factor. Watch for the little girl coquettishness and the public displays of affection which are extremely manipulative, however beguiling. She casts her spell with girlish charm.


GEMINI:


MEN: Gemini male is a smoothie who loves to dip his finger in as many pies as possible. He is what he is; which is not the most trustworthy dude on the planet. But you are bound to forgive him most things, as he is as loveable and cute as they come. Turn a blind eye and enjoy the good stuff, for Gemini man is witty, entertaining and a bundle of laughs. Okay, he is easily distracted, somewhat two-faced, and masterful at covering his tracks. It’s all true. BUT the upside is you get to spend time with a cultured, refined, intelligent individual who loves to talk and bounce ideas around; amongst other things! Close to his family and friends, the Gemini fella does have a loyal streak and he does not mess with his deepest emotions. It’s just that he loves sex and can segregate his feelings into interchangeable compartments. His heart is a mansion with many rooms, you might say.


WOMEN: Gemini female is a funny mixture. She loves her independence and privacy, but she does have a vulnerable streak and likes to role-play Little-Girl-Lost, when the situation requires it. You will doubtless enjoy rescuing her from whatever it is that plays upon her mind; for she is beguiling, playful and childlike on a good day. Just steer clear when the thunder clouds are a-forming, and be prepared for the odd bit of nifty deception when she is trying to get ahead. The Gemini chick is competitive and likes to excel in her chosen field. But this prowess, luckily for you, extends to the bedroom. You can expect hours of fun, so long as you don’t become boring and predictable. If Gemini woman does demand one thing; it’s a vivid imagination between the sheets. She is dangerous in manipulative mode, but strangely innocent as she indulges her desires. Enjoy…


CANCER:


MEN: The Cancer male is a great believer in taking things easy. It’s anything for the quiet life, as far as he’s concerned. The Zodiac Crab can be quite indirect and understated, even a little cold. Not the best communicator in the world, this fella expects you to read his mind in the same way he can read yours. Very self protective and cagey about his deepest feelings, he can be quite moody and petulant. He is also good at ducking and diving and knows how to keep you guessing. Plagued with insecurities and anxiety, he can still be pushy when he has to be. If a person or circumstance has served its purpose he can be quite ruthless at shutting down and moving on. When committed though the scuttling Crab can be coaxed into nurturing and caring. Deep and emotional, this man tends to spend too much time analyzing how HE is doing. What about you?


WOMEN: This woman is sensitive and protective with her displays of affection. Those she loves get her undivided attention; but her intensity can at times be overwhelming.
Inclined to be temperamental, the female Crab can snap at the silliest things. Too often she goes ‘off on one’ for no good reason. This sensitive lady needs an outlet for her complex emotions; if you know what I mean. Get busy between the sheets and most things can be readily forgiven. Remember, her shyness is surprising and she gets insecure about the strangest things. But intimacy is important to her well being; as is sharing and caring in a close knit environment. She really is very unlikely to stray as family life suits her, providing ample opportunity for the connections she craves. When things are running smoothly this lady gives unconditionally; but she can be turned off by other’s demands.



LEO:


MEN: The Zodiac Lion is a dramatic and flamboyant lover. No one would dismiss this beast as a wallflower that’s for sure. Definitely inclined towards dramatic gestures, the regal male is madly colourful and good fun to be with. This man’s creativity is enviable and he has good energy reserves for the things which grab his imagination. Let’s hope one of them is YOU! Remember, routine stuff bores the pants off him; but he does have a lazy streak which allows him to snooze off at the drop of a hat when there is nothing better to do. Keep him stimulated and interested and the loving will intensify. Give up too readily, and he will go out on the prowl to peruse his domain. The Lion will not be seduced for the sake of it; yet of course he manages to be intrinsically charming when he says no. But his need to be adored is a key aspect of his sexual drive and general prowess.


WOMEN: The Zodiac Lioness is loyal and generous hearted. Attentive and kind, she loves to dominate her terrain and takes tremendous pride in her brood. But she can also be quite controlling and in-your-face with her gestures. The Leo female is the proverbial Drama Queen, and her emotions are bizarrely and entertainingly over the top when she becomes unbalanced. However when she is fully appreciated, this does not really happen. Just watch out for the claws if you ever take her for granted. Her temper tantrums are legendary, and she can be quite childlike when she does not get her own way. If she’s going to stray, this would be the time, so it kind of pays to keep her happy. Indulge her and she will repay you with more loving than you know what to do with. Scary really! On the plus side, this female is wonderfully engaging and magically open hearted.


VIRGO:


MEN: The Virgo man is usually low-key, modest, dutiful, and possibly a bit ‘mousy’ on first impressions. But don’t be fooled, this earthy sign warms up eventually and there are few who could beat him for over all performance. This man makes his voice and presence felt in subtle ways and he is intrinsically loyal. He really IS worth your time and attention if you are looking for lasting love, fun and commitment. But watch out for his systematic, methodical streak, as he works his way into hearts and minds. He does have a controlling streak and of course that tendency to worry too much can be a bit of a pain. The Virgo man is incredibly picky and perfectionist. Likely to be critical of himself and others he does not believe in making things easy. On the plus side, casual links and superficial people are just not his style. What you see is what you get with this reliable fella.


WOMEN: This female is loyal, kind and modest; but a stickler for perfection. Her standards are high and she finds it difficult to be demonstrative when something doesn’t feel right. The Zodiac Goddess shows her love and affection in practical ways. Even her tidiness and organization indicate her level of involvement. When she is wholeheartedly up-for-it, she is the chirpiest homemaker in the kingdom. But this lady has a cool analytical side and can express herself dispassionately. She may come across as aloof and fussy to those who don’t know her very well. Virgo woman seeks perfection and sometimes gets held back by her need to have everything ‘just so’. But she is unlikely to stray even if things get dire. Not great at revenge, you will probably be forgiven if you are unfaithful to her. Remember though, she will be tortured by it and will never forget.


LIBRA:


MEN: Libra Man is romantic, full of good will and happy thoughts. Well, in theory! In love-with-love, Libra will make uninformed choices until they hook up with their Soul Mate. A sucker for candle lit dinners and romantic gestures; this male is easily seduced by traditional expressions of feeling. It takes him a while to realize that sentimentality and a bunch of roses do not equate to undying love. When the situation gets serious, the harmonious Libran ups his game and pursues hard evidence of his chosen amour’s staying power before he fully commits. In typical Libra style, he is sometimes assertive; sometimes shy; blowing hot and cold, often to your eternal frustration if you have already fallen for him. Yes, his dithering can indeed be quite exasperating, and even when he is committed, you will have to remember that he will flirt for Ireland whenever possible.


WOMEN: Libra Female is idealistic, dreamy and good calming company. She expects a lot from her relationships. But she can also be refreshingly lighthearted and even flippant. She expresses her affections sometimes extravagantly, sometimes hesitantly and her varied responses reflect typical Libran dithering. Unlikely to stray once she has fallen in love, this Zodiac female is reliable and unusually beautiful. Others may try to seduce her and you may feel insecure when she is out and about. But rest assured; this little lady does not look elsewhere so long as she is not stifled or pushed into a corner by YOU! Okay, that wicked sense of humour and natural charisma attracts all sorts of people. It’s just the way she is and you will have to appreciate this sociable aspect of her nature if you are going to keep her happy and buoyant. She hates conflict and will walk not talk.


SCORPIO:


MEN: This passionate Zodiac Sign is surprisingly reticent about casual connections. The one-night-stand circuit is not the first choice of behaviour for the Scorpion. Of course this is a habit that is easy to fall into if there is an underlying fear of being hurt by love which there often is. But contrary to most Zodiac Scorpio myths, this man does not tumble into bed at the drop of a proverbial hat. Intense and deep, commitment is important to Scorpio male. One thing is for sure, this man does not believe in half measures with the love stuff. When committed to a course of action, which hopefully involves YOU, this man will follow through to the MAX. If you are unsure of his advances, watch his brooding eyes for clues. The truth is in there if you care to see it. This man certainly IS a catch with great energy levels and spectacular powers of endurance. Passionate responses come easy


WOMEN: This HOT Zodiac female is compulsive and passionate, which is great for intense connections. Yes, she may be likely to stray if the notion takes her. But there is NO point getting het up about it. You may pick up the vibes and be completely wrong, so if you love a Scorpio female, give her lots of space. She is much more likely then to wonder what YOU are up to, which will keep her on the straight and narrow like nothing else. Be aware that her mystery, privacy and charisma are all part of her allure. If you breathe down her neck in a less than seductive way she may turn against you, becoming overly suspicious and a tad obsessive. Her great gifts of passion and intensity can also be a burden. You will have to be a self contained, self assured and charismatic fella to attract and keep this lovely lady. She quickly casts a spell that will keep you hooked. Enjoy!


SAGITTARIUS:


MEN: Sagittarius male is straightforward and adventurous. If you are up for an experience that will tickle your fancy, do hook up with a Sagittarian. Yes, they are hyper, busy and sporty, and you will sometimes wonder where you fit in. But apart from that, you are signed up for a rollercoaster ride with never a dull moment. If you enjoy peace and quiet; don’t bother. But if you like to be entertained, and never bored; go right ahead. This fiery soul is idealistic in his quest for true love. He is a born optimist who in this life has embarked on a continual quest to improve his lot. Sagittarius male is a restless spirit who keeps up the pressure, even when he has already got quite a good deal. Yes, the grass is always greener and he loves to spend time with the lads. Here is a free spirit who will experiment ad infinitum with a whole range of connections; like it or not!


WOMEN: The Sagittarian female is open with her affections and somewhat idealistic too. When she feels love, the whole world invariably hears about it. This is fine if you like the object of your affections to make a fuss; but not so good if you are the discrete, private type. This female wears her heart on her sleeve and she can be quite easily led, which is great if you want to seduce her; but may unnerve you if you want to keep a hold of her. A firm, loving approach should do the trick and a busy schedule too (for her). Be strong and self-contained to keep her interest. Apart from that, precious little dampens her lively spirit, which is great for intimate shenanigans, but not the best if you need a night’s kip. It takes a lot to get this lady riled; and even then she is one of the most forgiving souls on the planet. She’s difficult to pin down, but hours of endless fun.


CAPRICORN:


MEN: This fella is an earthy, matter of fact soul, who can also be quite calculating. If you are with him, you need to guard your interests and keep your boundaries in check. One night stands are anathema to this man, so that is a comfort. But the down side is you won’t often get a let-up from his intensity and need to control things. Can you handle it? Of course love covers a multitude of sins, and you can have full confidence in your relationship if you have adjusted through the tricky times. Once the deeper levels of love have kicked in, this man is full of romance, love and tolerance too; a great mixture for the archetypal family man, really. The Capricorn male is quite a traditionalist even before commitment sets in. But as a singleton he is not beyond the quick fling. Still, he makes his selection carefully, and then usually ends up marrying her anyway!


WOMEN: This woman is faithful and dutiful with her affections; but her relationships can be somewhat boring and sanitized. Meticulous about doing things the right way; she is prone to creating a joyless, edgy atmosphere, unwittingly. In trying to do things right this lady is in danger of losing her spontaneity and sense of humour. Loved ones potentially feel stifled, so be warned if you start to feel like you always have to be on your best behaviour. This earthy lady takes relationships seriously, which is commendable. But whilst she is sensual, faithful and down to earth, she is also rather exacting too. Her natural reserve may come across as snobbish. But she is not dull and you will quickly know you can trust her with your life, heart and just about everything else too. Be patient with her when you first meet. She needs time to warm up and trust you.


AQUARIUS:

MEN: This man is unique. Eccentric and a law unto himself, he makes it all up as he goes along. What is expected, be damned! Aquarian man does things as he wishes, or not at all. If you are involved with him, be aware that he can be controlling. Any one who dares to influence him adversely gets short shrift. On the up side this man is a real catch as he has a strong altruistic streak. He does not tolerate idiots; but he is wise, with a knowing air. His caring gestures are from the heart. In the boudoir he is imaginative and free spirited too. Anything goes and lovers are invariably in for a treat. Fresh approaches and unusual ideas turn him on, and he can cope with most forms of weirdness. This man is a good mix as he is loyal too; until he gets bored. Brush up on your intellect and knowledge to keep him hooked and things will flow in a longstanding, blissful way.


WOMEN: This lady is affectionate but unconventional and experimental. She can be a little kooky and odd and her fashion sense is certainly individual. But she is interesting and humourful. Little fazes her and she is offended by precious little. As long as she is free to express her feelings she is easily pleased. Privacy is crucial to her equilibrium; but she is also sociable and lively of wit and mind. Don’t expect an easy ride with this Zodiac Queen. You have met your match in her that IS for sure. Quick off the mark, nothing gets past her extreme powers of perception. She makes a great mother too, for with her altruistic tendencies, she is full of empathy and understanding. You will have to get used to her quirky habits and unusual ways. But she will keep you entertained and ready for anything. She makes a lively lover; she is experimental, adventurous, and a skilful flirt


PISCES:


MEN: This man has great powers of empathy and perception, which makes him nice to know. But he is not beyond deceptive activity if it is required. He goes through phases where he likes to be unavailable and mysterious. He also has a nosey streak, and loves to be at centre of other people’s business. Pisces man has a natural intuition and sensitivity, which gives him the edge in many situations. However, he can be a bit indecisive and vague when does not understand his deepest emotions. Don’t doubt his feelings. But do be prepared for frustration at his non-verbal communication and reticence just when you want to get busy. Be warned, he can be evasive and deceptive when cornered; he is capable of subtle moves and wily ways. But when in love he falls deep and is idealistic in his expectations. Prone to depression, you will have to be patient to keep him.


WOMEN: This lady is romantic and compassionate, if not a little over sentimental with her displays of affection. No one could ever accuse her of neglect or flippancy. But she is a soft touch, so don’t take advantage of her in a ruthless way. She WILL fall for you. You have been warned! Protect her from ruthless, self indulgent types who are likely to take advantage of her amenable nature. Yes, she needs to toughen up, and use more discernment. But her perceptions are acute and powers of sympathy heightened. You won’t get away with anything underhand yourself as she is extremely psychic. But she is capable of deception herself, and may stray if you have wronged her first. Pisces lady is good at walking into situations that don’t reflect her in the best light. So, it is best to trust her and let her make some mistakes. She will listen the next time. Well, maybe!


who is compatible?

Fellow Earth signs Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn always connect well and have balanced, sensual, laid back relationships. The only down side is the inevitable clash of wills from time to time. When they blow they blow, but it is not long before calm descends and the Bull grazes on and the Virgo gets on with the housework. Earth signs can be pretty stubborn and like to get their own way. But, mutable, practical Virgo will more often than not adapt to the dictates of their Taurus or Capricorn partner when push comes to shove.

Water signs Pisces, Cancer, and Scorpio understand each other but things can get over emotional and off balance quite quickly. These are not necessarily practical matches, but there is always an intuitive telepathy, connection and empathy. Loaded, emotive relationships which can expend a lot of energy and wear you down; but on the up side make you feel like you are really living and experiencing something. Never dull anyway!

Fire Signs Aries, Leo and Sagittarius generate a lot of heat. But these signs like to hold onto their freedom and get their own way. Aries is the Zodiac kiddie who doesn’t inevitably mix long term with Sagittarius who hates to bend to anyone’s will. But these are great passionate connections. Loyalty is rarely an issue once the commitments are made; but it takes along time for long term agreements to find their feet. Patience is needed in the early stages. Fire signs are perhaps better off mixing with Earth to encourage a bit of stability and grounded, adult behaviour.

Air Signs Gemini, Libra and Aquarius can mix and match with most signs. They generally hate disharmony and seek to maintain independence. They do things in their own way, communicate with whom they please, and generally encourage loved ones to do the same. These are not obviously romantic signs, so the likes of Pisces might feel shortchanged and Earth signs may find there is not enough of a sensual hands-on action. These signs can be kooky and you need to understand the language of love of your Air sign or you could take offense quite quickly. They do not do things by the book.

Aries and Pisces can be a challenging mix, as can Sagittarius and Scorpio. They do say that adjacent signs have an understanding of each other. But it could be a case of not sufficiently different, so things get stale and fraught more easily.

Aries and Taurus have longevity having said that. The likes of Bono and Ali, Posh and Becks have the staying power so long as they are not confined to 24/7 scenarios. An independent streak is needed if you are in a relationship with an adjacent zodiac sign.

They say that opposites attract and this is true in the zodiac where polar opposite signs are often drawn together in quite a magnetic way. Soul mates are often opposite signs or there are string components in their charts demonstrating the attraction of opposites.

Then of course there are the same sign relationships, which have a habit of becoming familial quite quickly; more a case of brother and sister or sibling than lover and partner. Though if it works, don’t knock it.



ARIES:

Aries is a dynamo and falls in love very quickly…or should I say lust? Of all the signs you are not backwards about coming forwards. With a dynamic Arian things move quickly. You are quick to show interest when you fancy someone, but tire just as quickly once the fun is over. You have a low tolerance level; and if your ferocious physical appetites are not satiated, there will be problems. Partners have to keep up - or else!
Pay a little more attention to the finesse of romantic relationships. Some signs love to be wooed and want love to develop slowly but surely. Unless you can develop some grounding and patience, you are liable to miss out on the subtle nuances of seduction.
Also, be cautious re commitment. Make sure your feelings are going to last before you say ‘I do’! However, if you have found someone who can match your lust, enthusiasm and appetite for life therein is a lasting connection. Hold onto it for dear life. Rarely does such intensity and reciprocity come around twice. So be willing to put in the work and effort once you are settled. Build on equality in your relationships and all will be well. Singletons however should sew their wild oats and proceed with caution. Passion is a seductive feeling of course. But more haste, less speed would not go amiss.


COMPATIBLE SIGNS…

Fellow Aries understands your passionate nature. But guard against major rows when stubborn wills clash. Gemini is very suitable and compatible; and Leo is all heart. Sagittarius is a great match in the bedroom. But things could get boring quickly. Scorpio is a sexy sign but the Scorpion need to be in control could trouble Aries. Ideally, Aries should avoid Taurus 24/7. But it can work if independence is respected. Pisces is way too intense and overly romantic - the language of love is just too different.



TAURUS:

Natural good looks and bucket loads of charm enable the Zodiac Bull to play the field and have the pick of the crop. But being Taurus, you are rarely in a hurry to connect. You are an earthy creature and want to be sure of a good thing first. Marriage brings the safe feeling that loyalty and commitment provide. Once committed, you tend not to stray. Well not when anyone is watching anyhow. There is no escaping the compelling Taurean. Sounds ominous? Well it can be. For when you are off balance, there are issues of possession and an obsessive tendency can ruin otherwise healthy relationships. You find it difficult to let go, and need to express anger and frustration vocally. If your emotions become blocked the eventual explosion is not a pretty sight. Never treat loved ones and friends as possessions. Learn to respect their freedom and independence; your loyalty will be well rewarded. You are a great provider, and seriously dependable; and you make an ideal partner for those who want security, safety and material stability.
Romantic gestures come easy to Taurus and you are the stuff dreams are made of. No Zodiac sign is as sensual, intense and romantic all at the same time…What’s your number?

COMPATIBLE SIGNS…

Earth signs Virgo and Capricorn are true Soul Mates. They understand your need for reliability, grounding and sensual expression. Scorpio, your opposite provides a powerful telepathic link - sexy too! Leo is good fun and looks great. Pisces is live wire and a loose- cannon. Aries does is not a good idea 24/7 – it could end in tears. Aquarius is detached and missing the TLC factor. Sagittarius is too unpredictable and flighty. Cancer and Libra are good friends, but too different. Go easy with fellow Taurus – a potential clash of the Titans!



GEMINI:



It is relatively easy for Gemini to make the moves when they are attracted to someone. You are one of the Zodiac’s great communicators and possess a fine imagination. Charming, witty and creative, not much stands in your way when you are on the prowl. Over time however, your dual nature is a potential spanner in the works. Along with a low boredom threshold; an immature Gemini finds the battle to settle down a constant struggle. Indeed, complete faithfulness is a rare achievement for those with lashings of Gemini energy. Partners of Gemini have to understand your need to fulfil restless urges. Or at least permit a semblance of freedom. The looser the leash, the more likely it is you will stay true, so it certainly does not pay to mistrust or nag you. With Gemini, the risks are worth it. You are great at heart felt expressions. Not afraid to verbalise feelings, you may astound people with the speed at which you fall madly in and out of love. Also, sexually you make for a lively and imaginative bedfellow. Complaints in the boudoir are unlikely. You need to avoid the Slipper and Sofas syndrome at all costs…

COMPATIBLE SIGNS…

Aries is a great match - these two can be best friends as well as lovers. Fellow Gemini understands; whilst Aquarius has intelligence and detachment, which keeps the interest up. Cancer is far too emotional and needy; and there is a lot of game playing and potential deceit re Pisces. Virgo and Capricorn are way too staid, organized, and predictable for flighty Gemini. But Scorpio and Sagittarius present a challenge. Scorpio is the seducer and Gemini will play along. And Sagittarius is playful, but too fiery.


CANCER:

Cancer thrives on the nurturing possibilities of Love connections. But strong and powerful emotions should be monitored, or you risk overwhelming the object of your affections. You are a true romantic who enjoys being wooed and seduced. However, coziness may set in, if the urge to nurture and protect takes precedence. You should maintain your independence; and so guarantee a lifetime of intensity and passion. You can be flexible within your relationships which will allow for development and change. Protect yourself, or you may feel left behind and abandoned when love moves on. Respect freedom. There is no point drowning someone in kindness. Besides, your wonderfully warm sensuality and ability to tune-in will keep them coming back for more.
You are an expressive and brilliant lover. Guard your heart though, for you are quite sensitive and susceptible. Always make sure that your affections are reciprocated, before you get in too deep. Temper the urge to be overly sentimental about the past, for this may hamper your progress in the present. Current relationships do not respond well to a persistent potted history of past encounters. For sanity’s sake, discard those rose tinted spectacles…

COMPATIBLE SIGNS…

Fellow Crab is a match made in heaven. Whilst Virgo is a stabilizing influence and support. Scorpio is a whirlwind in the bedroom. And Pisces is a lot of fun with a wicked sense of humour. Taurus is a compelling partner though there will be differences of opinion! Capricorn is reliable and steady. But on balance is probably too austere and cold. Leo will get distracted and not be able to give full time attention. Gemini is too flirty, though shares a sense of humour. Air signs do not measure up…


LEO:

You are all heart, and should therefore guard against being hurt. The Zodiac Lion is readily wounded, and falls in love heavily and swiftly. If intense feelings are returned in full you are destined for blissful happiness. But life can be unkind and you will often experience heartache, before peace and harmony finally descends. You are a faithful creature, who is naturally loyal and open. You love social intercourse, and need the stimulation of a variety of connections. Partners should understand that you are completely faithful when given free rein. Your heart is slow to heal and you feel things deeply and intensely. Be careful not to overwhelm your partner with your generous spirit. Less is definitely more when you are in love. You do need to make a heart connection, but hold back to protect yourself. Make sure that your partner is up for it and committed before you let it all hang out. Be careful not to be too dominant in your relationships or you will scare everyone off, never mind the love interest. Accept that sometimes people will say NO. You need an enthusiastic and responsive partner; someone who can occasionally give you what for!

COMPATIBLE SIGNS…

Fellow Fire signs suit Leo. Passions fly, and there is understanding without tedium. Taurus is ‘low key’, but provides quality romance which Leo desires. Gemini is lively and interesting. However, loyalty issues could send it all pear-shaped. Water signs are generally too broody and intense for Leo. Pisces is liable to outwit The Lion, which will not go down well. And Scorpio is a match for any Leo - These conflicting egos will fight it out incessantly! Virgo sees through leonine traits in an instant. And Capricorn is just not up for the permanent party…


VIRGO:

Being Virgo you find it difficult to believe that anyone would fall for you. Highly self-critical you like to offer perfection only. If you feel inadequate in any area – not slim, tall or cute enough you will take some persuading. The irony is that Virgo is often quite stunning; and others fail to understand where the reluctance to engage comes from. You often get called, aloof, snobby, or unattainable. But a smug Virgo is a rare creature indeed. If you want to woo and win a Virgo plenty of reassurance about your genuine intentions will be needed. Virgo modesty can be a problem in the bedroom. But what is rarely reported is that when The Virgin gets into gear, he/she is earthy and passionate. Once committed you are loyal and faithful. Even if the physical aspect of a relationship diminishes Virgo will not stray. If you are a Virgo, be careful not to project your issues onto your partners and loved ones. Modify your expectations of people, places and things for sanity’s sake. Learn to accept others on their own merit and appreciate the positive aspect of doing things differently. You can not expect to realistically control the proceedings from dawn to dusk, so chill…

COMPATIBLE SIGNS…

Taurus and Virgo fulfill each other’s wildest dreams! Cancer has the full-on sensuality Virgo needs. Virgo and Virgo are liable to drive each other wild with desire, but mad with frustration. Pisces is highly charged with oodles of sex appeal; whilst Scorpio is suitably sexy, minus the control issues. Aries is a loose canon, without stability. Similarly, Gemini is exciting company. But as for life long commitment, forget it! Aquarius understands, but gets exasperated when Virgo is right. Libra is funny, irresistible and hard work. Leo and Sagittarius are OK for a fling…



LIBRA:

Librans love the thought of being in love. You thrive on the anticipation as much as the event itself. You tend to fall in love very easily, and should make a concerted effort to choose wisely. A trail of broken hearts does not a pretty picture make and you must be careful with your emotions. Be aware that you are more vulnerable than they realize. It is imperative for you to exercise discrimination and protect your interests. Do learn to accept people on their own merit; and try to watch what you expect from others in return. Honour the freedom and independence of partners and family members, then your expectations will be repaid tenfold. The looser the grip, the more you will receive. Unconditional love, painful though it may be, also guarantees big rewards. You are a born romantic; but need to keep those feet on the ground. Start to be realistic about love. Don’t just plan the wedding ceremony, work out first what a lifetime together actually means. Romantic thoughts are all very well; but do remember you have to relate to human beings not knights in shining armour, or princesses from the fairy tales.

COMPATIBLE SIGNS…

Aries, Libra’s polar opposite, is highly compatible. Gemini is a master of delivery, and the Aquarian’s sense of humour wins every time. Taurus is a great provider. Libra wants for nothing…until the boredom sets in. Cancer is highly seductive and permanently interesting. Leo has instant appeal - the fireworks fly when these two hit the sack. Libra with Libra makes a good team. But expect a clash eventually. Pisces is too emotionally clever, and tends to manipulate to get a reaction. Capricorn is too tame and tedious. While Scorpio is totally unfathomable!


SCORPIO:

Scorpio is both plagued and blessed by deep emotion. This renders you a great catch indeed. But also signifies that there are deep-seated issues to be processed in matters of the heart. You rise to the challenge; but needs to temper obsessive and possessive tendencies in relationships. Scorpio loves to control the proceedings and feels uncomfortable when out of its depth. So it takes you time to trust and feel comfortable one-on-one. It is a fear of commitment and heartache that is responsible for your rampant reputation. You would rather have a string of affairs than commit to anticipated heartbreak. Love needs to find its feet before you relax enough to enjoy deep connections. Guard against jealousy, suspicion, and resentfulness. When insecure, you can be aggressive and prone to picking fights. There is inevitably intense drama when Scorpio does not feel loved. Learn to cope with your deep feelings and be patient with yourself. When you find your Soul Mate, you will realize what a gift these emotions really are. You are loyal and committed once in love. So recognize that mischievous secret grin which manifests when you love someone…

COMPATIBLE SIGNS…

Fellow Scorpio is a true Soul Mate; while Taurus and Virgo really suit. These seductive Earth signs provide the missing link. Cancer and Pisces connect emotionally. But there maybe game playing and blackmail when things get intense. Leo and Scorpio are powerfully attracted - A very physical relationship. Aries connects well with Scorpio. But this is more friendship than intense passion. Sagittarius has to be willing to compromise. Or forget it over the long term. Avoid dominant Capricorn and flighty Gemini. Libra is a bit bland. Whilst Aquarius is too busy and distracted.


SAGITTARIUS:

Sagittarius has boundless energy for love and life. Your free wheeling nature needs variety and diversity; which can of course herald trouble when it comes to commitment. Sagittarius has wild oats to sow, and is not ashamed to say so! Strong passionate feelings and natural urges often get the better of The Archer; who is not intentionally unfaithful, but who simply finds that things-happen now and again. You are never backwards about coming forwards. But as you mature you value companionship and conversation. There is an option on the mellow route. As long as you are free to roam and consider endless possibilities, fidelity is not a problem. This may be unnerving for loved ones. But if Sagittarius is respected and unconfined, no harm is done. One whiff of possessiveness and you will find ways to wander. If you are Sagittarius, you may at times be too casual about love and sex. Jealousy is not in your vocabulary, which can be both liberating and disconcerting for loved ones. However, once you connect with your Soul Mate, nothing will persuade you to stray. When you truly fall for someone you will know all about it…and so will everyone else.

COMPATIBLE SIGNS…

Aries has a lot of passion to share with Sagittarius; whilst Leo is ideal mentally and physically - a fulfilling connection. Libra is up for it – just about anywhere! And Aquarius is quirky but adventurous. Gemini fills in the gaps, with endless chatter guaranteed. Cancer is an intriguing and mysterious partner, who keeps Sagittarius guessing. Virgo is interesting and captivates for a certain amount of time. Where Pisces is very compelling and drives Sagittarius to distraction, for good or bad. Possessive Scorpio and the plodding earth signs Taurus and Capricorn should be avoided…


CAPRICORN:

Capricorn is cautious in matters of the heart. The Zodiac Goat needs to find its feet, and tends to warm up slowly. Once committed you are steadfast and true. Since few can match your devotion and loyalty. It is advisable that you ditch control issues. When you develop an open attitude to feelings and emotions, anything can happen. Capricorn often holds back for fear of rejection. So TRUST is the key; plus a willingness to make mistakes occasionally. When you fall in love it is usually for keeps. For, when this Earth sign surrenders, their amour is already smitten. Capricorn is not a great risk taker, and does not act on impulse; which is good protection of course. But can mean that you miss out on all the fun. You are a sure thing, who expects as much in return. Fair enough! But if you are Capricorn do unwind; and watch that tendency to penny pinch. You do not wish to come across mean spirited. It is not a crime to spend money. But missing out on romantic dinners, presents and gestures of affection IS. Down to earth as you are, let go. Loosen purse and heart strings, just a little...


COMPATIBLE SIGNS…

Fellow Earth signs Taurus and Virgo bring passion and practicality…the ideal mix for Capricorn. Pisces is adoring and malleable – very useful. But Cancer may be overly emotional. Aries is simply too hot to handle – great for a fling, if you dare have one. Scorpio likes to be in control; as does fellow Capricorn - An inevitable clash waiting to happen. Libra is simply too different. And Aquarius has to get its way – a recipe for disaster…Gemini is way too wild and challenging for Capricorn. And Sagittarius is dangerously impulsive. Opportunistic signs need not apply.



AQUARIUS:

Aquarius is a private person who does not readily make deep, intense connections. The Water Carrier acts similarly to cautious Capricorn, but for different reasons. You are alluring, charismatic, and rarely spoiled for choice. However, you do not fall in love easily. Interested in a whole range of options, you flit in and out of possibilities until surety descends. You have a magnetic pull, which may attract and repel in equal measure. On the one hand enticing and curious, you disconnect quickly when uneasy. Of course there is nothing wrong with being careful; but you should guard against missing out on the love of your life. Too much detachment and preservation of privacy can render the Water Carrier isolated and alone. It is important that you open up from the heart to make lasting links. If you are Aquarius, learn to show your emotions more fully and be honest with love’s expression. Once you fall for someone you fall heavily. Your choice of partner may be unusual; but your loyalty ensures that they have you for life. Find a partner who respects your maverick nature and unique disposition. Prepare for an exciting and fulfilling relationship; and certainly do not allow anyone to sway your choices…as if!

COMPATIBLE SIGNS…

Fellow Aquarius is compatible and entertaining. While Gemini offers everything, and has a great sense of humour to boot! Libra brings a lasting and lustful connection. Aries is a great idea when the balance is right. And Leo is fun for a moment or two. Virgo annoys Aquarius by being right once too often! But Sagittarius is unusually devoted. Expect a clash of the Titans with Capricorn. Watch out for Pisces who will get under your skin and invade your space. Taurus is too cozy and home orientated for Aquarius who wants to party.


PISCES:

Pisces loves to display a whole range of emotions with passion and gusto! Love delights in The Fishes’ openness; but is also embarrassed by that tendency to be over eager in public places. You must learn to define boundaries; and should be careful not to chase love away in an eagerness to please. You are liable to be overly intense, a little sentimental, and highly idealistic. These honest qualities echo the naïve child attempting to make a dream come true. Pisces must be mindful that adult relationships inspire a mixed bag of emotions; requiring adjustment and compromise along the way. It is all very well holding onto romantic notions of happiness for as long as possible; but life has a way of delivering harsh and insightful lessons to help us grow up. You are quite vulnerable to heartache whilst this education takes place. If you are Pisces, enjoy the intensity of your passions. But DO curb your enthusiasm. There is no one to match you romantically; and your performance is always honest. Do access the lighter side of love, life, and happiness. Do not take things quite so seriously. You may always find refuge in the fantasies revolving around your head. But will this substitute for an experience of the real thing? I think not!

COMPATIBLE SIGNS…

Cancer and Scorpio speak the Pisces language of love. Virgo is highly compelling. But once attraction fades the arguments could be interesting! Fellow Pisces either repels or attracts - Follow your instincts. Avoid Sagittarius except for an exciting fling. Taurus is up for it. But will tire of Piscean mutability. Leo goes along for the ride – up to a point. And Capricorn is too staid and not impulsive enough. Gemini is untrustworthy – Surprise! Libra is a nitpicker! Aquarius gets down and dirty. But this is potential war, not fun at all…
