GEMINI
May 21st - Jun 22nd

Forward momentum is your theme right now, but distractions, particularly from new or needy friends are possible too. Are you letting others blow their horns while yours sits in the case? Venus strikes a pose in Leo midweek, your short travel and communication zone. If you're not having any luck with the local lads, it's time to cast your net further afield. Long walks and even longer talks are magical this weekend. Harness the cosmic energy and romantic vibe to let your partner know how you really feel. While you're the master of mindless chitchat, it's time to 'get real'.

CANCER
Jun 22nd-Jul 22nd

All those mixed signals you've been getting lately are cleared up this week, although you bid adieu to Venus, the goddess of beauty. Feeling fat and blue? Treat yourself and hang out with someone who's really fat and ugly - that always helps! You continue to have Mercury in your sign, the planet of communication. So you have plenty to say (and maybe even too much to say at times). If you are out on a date, don't tell him or her everything about you (including the 'iffy' stuff) right off the cosmic bat. Venus in your self-esteem zone over the next few weeks has you sizing your partner up against other competitors (and many of you will find him/her wanting)...Hey, you fell for them looking like that, so don't try changing them now!

LEO
Jul 23rd - Aug 22nd

Throw yourself an impromptu party this weekend lions and lionesses. Venus, the planet of relationship and luv sets up shop in your sign through mid-July, giving you six heavenly weeks of looking and feeling great as well as being a terrific hostess. You have the cosmic power to be able to pick and choose which partners you want right now. But just because you've got your mojo back doesn't mean that you can steal a friend's love interest from right under his or her nose. Play nice! Venus encourages you to flirt like mad. But make sure you stick to flirting with your partner, not his or her friends, coworkers, dad or mum and boss! Sure you love attention and are an affectionate pussycat, but you don't have to be that friendly!

VIRGO
Aug 23rd - Sep 22nd

Life goes your way much of this week and for the month of June, but you do need to be at your adaptable best and go with the flow. Even if that means giving up those reservations at the hottest spot in town and going somewhere rather grungy instead. Venus shifts gears midweek and the competition heats up. That's why you can't set your sights on someone and no one else will do. Be prepared to compromise when it comes to dating (or not dating). Do what's best for you, not your partner this week. All too often you get caught up in trying to please everyone but yourself and it doesn't work. Sure it's being selfish, but it's for a good cause right? YOU!

LIBRA
Sep 23 - Oct 23rd

Enjoy this week - it's the start of one of the best periods of 2007 for you, with your ruler Venus shimmering in fiery Leo and mojo enhancing Mars in your relationship zone. Don't worry about outshining others either - this is your time! Fresh scenery - in other words, a trip out of town is recommended for those of you nursing a wounded/broken heart this weekend (or for those of you who need to dodge someone for a while...) Leos and Aries are your best companions btw. If you and your partner aren't connecting and aren't getting along, it's serious. This is the most romantic and steamy time of year for you, so ask yourself why is he sleeping on the couch so much? Or why is she spending way too much time at her parents?

SCORPIO
Oct 24th - Nov 21st

Horn blowing and drum beating is simply not the Scorpio style. But you can appreciate others who are willing to go out on a limb, fail, fall flat on their face and laugh about it right? Put that down in your diary for Friday night then! Feeling that special zing with a coworker but worried about mixing business and pleasure? Get acquainted outside the office and you may find that the zing isn't there as much. That in fact it's more of a ping... Work is riding you harder than ever and you might not have as much time for your partner as you would like. Set aside one or two nights that are hers/his and hers/his only - this means no mobile, no computer or Blackberry.

SAGITTARIUS
Nov 22nd - Dec 21st

You may well come to view the world differently by the time June comes to an end. Such is the cosmic energy occurring in your sign and around you, encouraging you to become slightly more serious and focused on you and all that you need to do to evolve. Venus hip hops into your fellow fire sign of Leo this week, your spiritual zone and with Mars in your romance zone, you're on a mission. Not just to find a mate, but the right mate. Good luck! The astro accent is on relationships right now. And not just the one you have with your partner, but all of them. Spread the love boys & girls, but don't forget to check in with your partner and make sure he or she is okay this weekend.

CAPRICORN
Dec 22nd - Jan 19th

Something you started (or ended) back in January comes up in convo this week and you realize you need to go back and do a major 'fix up'. Whatever you need to do, do it now, as mid month communications and your ability to think straight will go awry. Take nothing for granted goats. Sure you like him/her and he/she likes you, but what about his/her ex lurking in the background? Chances are they will return to what's familiar, especially if you come on too strong. Power play at work makes coming home to your partner that much better - that is unless you are playing games with each other! Find your common ground and ensure your 'nest' is a quiet, safe one!

AQUARIUS
Jan 20th - Feb 18th

Take the initiative to make new friends this week. A friendly neighbor isn't going to be banging your door down all night long, so stop avoiding them with covert operations that would make James Bond take note! Venus's arrival in your relationship zone and opposite sign of Leo midweek combined with Mars in your communications zone makes you a prime target for singles this weekend. Your mojo is back - get out there and use it! It will take extra effort for you to get your point across to your partner this week. Sometimes you gloss over the important parts and highlight the not so vital points. Stick to the facts and clear up any silly misunderstandings. Pronto!

PISCES
Feb 19th- Mar 20th

Venus sets up shop in your health and beauty zone over the next few weeks and with Mars in your self-esteem zone, it's time to 'do you'. If your muffin top is out of control or your wardrobe looks more like an op shop 'free to good home' bin, it's time to do something. There's a lot of fire energy when it comes to love right now. Not so great for you sensitive, emotional flower child types. Watch out or you might get burnt by dating this weekend. Might be better to stay in with a good DVD and cuddle up to your pooch, bottle of wine, pack of ciggies.... With the sense of urgency in the air right now, you need to calm down if you feel you and/or your partner is getting way too upset about something minor. Blow-ups will occur through the smallest, silliest thing. Don't go there girls and boys.

ARIES
Mar 21st - Apr 19th

You're at your social best over the next month or so, starting with midweek's arrival of Venus into Leo, your pleasure zone. Just watch your girlish/boyish figure. No doubt your increased social life comes with an increased eating and drinking plan... Venus's move into Leo is a major plus for your dating and mating life. Hang out with those friends who always have parties and travel in packs and are up for setting you up. Keep in mind you've got 'catch me if you can' Mars in your sign so don't play too hard to get! If the romance is virtually non-existent in your relationship lately, it's time to spice things up. You've got no excuse right now with so much sizzling energy in your romance department. Make plans with your partner for the weekend that does not involve him watching footy with his mates or her shopping with her girls!

TAURUS
Apr 20th - May 20th

Don't waste your time on too many false starts this week. Other people might be pushing you around a bit right now and your first instinct is to resist. Hear them out first; they might actually be making sense. There's a lot of fiery energy around right now and some of you may feel as if you are a major loser if you don't have a date, let alone a lover/companion in your life. Understand that there is also a lot of hype around and not everyone is having as much wild sex or great dates as they may be making out! If you feel you and your partner are settling into a very boring rut, do something about it. Ditch the granny undies and suffer through the agony of g-strings, thongs and push up bras to entice your man. Or wax that hairy chest boys!
