LOVE: Romance could be difficult for the first part of January. The simplest things are questioned and reviewed. Dream logic influences your waking actions around the 16th. Strange behavior makes or breaks a relationship, moving you beyond that analytical limbo. Passion rules your life in February. Those who have trouble committing find it easier around the 21st. Maybe security or self-preservation motivates you, but your partner doesn't have to know. Flatter him or her with the quality of your attention.

Over the course of the Spring, you move from uneasy comfort to romantic bliss. In late March and early April, relationships blossom like the flowers that now decorate your neighborhood. Wardrobe, grooming and reputation become more important when the Sun reaches Taurus. Caring friends or seemingly random events prepare you for something special, and you're the last to know. By mid-May, love works its mystical transformation on your ordinary life. It's a month of intense pairing from May 22nd to June 21st. Couple energy and romantic possibilities sweep away all other thoughts. Your attention span suffers (as if that matters).

Distraction and disorder become less fun as you approach July. Unpredictable action seems to be the rule rather than the exception. While you're rethinking what passion means and whether you need it, the Sun enters Leo and shines on you with true love and deep kindness. You relish this type of drama. The background noise is bearable when people so obviously care about each other. If there's a significant age difference between partners, things could get a bit hairy around August 28th. Otherwise, expect hardly any problems before December.

New lovers and longtime companions feel the nesting urge at the Autumnal Equinox. It's hard to imagine being in someone's way when you always make such a great effort to see each other. Personalities may clash in late October, but expect a sweet resolution around November 8th. For now, your needs as a couple matter more than your needs as an individual. Life and love run smoothly until December 17th. The gift you expected from your sweetheart may not be forthcoming. Stay calm. Maybe he or she has something even better in mind
