Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of August 17th

An exhilarating week can be yours — if you’re willing to be in the moment. Most likely you will be since you’re a leap before you look kind of sign. In matters of the heart, however, this isn’t always the best approach. Even so… if you are open to trying something new and getting out of your romantic comfort zone there’s every indication that you’ll be thrilled you did. If single, accept a first date with someone who isn’t your usual type. Expect to be amazed!

You’re starting to feel more and more hopeful about your romantic prospects now that Jupiter is moving through your 5th House of True Love. This week, it looks like you’re also one step closer to cleaning up a domestic related mess that has hindered you from enjoying a healthy love life. You’re not completely out of the muck just yet, but at long last, you can see a heart at the end of the tunnel. Yes!

If you’re single and have been going back and forth over whether or not to re-join one of those dating websites, this is the week to say YES. Retrograde Venus in your communication sector will make a brilliant link to surprise a minute Uranus in your social 11th house. This is also the part of your chart ruling the Internet and technology. There’s a good indication that you might re-connect with a past lover through social media as well. Sparks may fly all over again. Yum!

It may seem as though love bites this week … and you may have a few wounds to lick because of it. On Friday, the Sun will square off with Saturn, the planet of restriction and limitation. Saturn is moving through your true love sector, while the Sun is in the part of your chart connected to self-worth. You might have a difficult time feeling as if you’ll ever find true love again and be tempted to settle for something less than you know you deserve. Don’t fall into that trap.

Romantic potential will be brightest for you on Wednesday. There’s a possibility that you and your sweetheart will decide to take a vacation together in order for you both to re-connect. If so, be sure to choose a destination you’ve both been to before — and absolutely love. Try not to allow a domestic situation ruin your positive romantic vibes this week. That might be extra difficult to achieve on Friday.

Think back to a theme connected to your love life that emerged around June 20. It might have involved joint finances or your intimate world — but it was definitely positive. This week, it appears that there’s a second phase connected to that time and once again, you’ll benefit from it. The most interesting part about this is that whatever is happening, it’s going to happen behind the scenes. Don’t be concerned — that’s the way you want it.

Elation is sure to be yours this Wednesday! If you’re in a relationship with someone, the two of you are likely to branch out and try something new and exciting together. This might be slightly experimental but you’ll both crave the erratic part of it — in fact it’ll make your hearts beat faster! The only problem is that on Friday you’ll be reminded that sometimes, excitement can be quite expensive. Don’t break the bank.

There’s so much promise for you socially that it’s sure to help your romantic prospects. If you’re in a relationship then you and your partner might start to branch out more and find amazing couples friends that you enjoy going out with together. Another possibility is that you and your mate will decide to join a new group or organization together, expanding your social circle in that way. If single, all you need to do is look to your friends for new dating options.

Expect to have quite an adventure this week with your lover. He or she might sweep you off your feet this Wednesday with a whirlwind surprise that is sure to delight you. This will be something that expands your horizons while also reconnecting the two of you romantically. This will surely be a welcome change of pace since you’ll both depart from your usual routine in order to try something new. How exciting!

You and your partner might not want to stray too far from home. Why? There’s a great indication that you’ll enjoy an ultra-sexy time together on Wednesday — without leaving your cozy abode. Whatever you do, avoid allowing your friends to get in the way of your private affairs this week. It looks like there’s at least one pal who will try to kill your buzz and make you focus more on what’s wrong in your love life than what’s right.

On Wednesday, you and your partner can expect to reach new heights together — and it all begins with the power of your mind. Be sure to share your most “out there” ideas with your mate. He or she won’t think you’re crazy. In fact, there’s every indication that you’ll feel extra supported as you share your most innovative thoughts. A difficult career related situation on Friday however, threatens to sour your romantic potential for the weekend. Do your best to get around it.

There might be some more ups and downs connected to romance this week. On Wednesday you may feel like you’re on cloud nine with your lover. He or she seems to bring out the best in you, is making you feel like a million bucks and seems to want to help you manage the most unmanageable parts of your life. On Friday however, the highest of highs may turn into the lowest of lows. You might discover a moral sticking point, religious difference or other philosophical dilemma that you have. You won’t be able to overlook it.
