Your Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, February 13th

We’re not satisfied with doing everything the same old way today as doors open, revealing exciting new pathways through familiar territory. Luckily, we aren’t restrained by tradition now as the rebellious Aquarius Sun agitates unconventional Uranus. Although the lively Leo Moon harmonizes with Uranus, further enticing us into the future, unrestrained enthusiasm can lead to trouble. Like it or not, there are lessons to be learned from the past.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You naturally assume you’re ready for nearly anything but you might have some lingering doubts today, even after you say yes to an intriguing offer. Perhaps your uncertainty stems from being acutely aware of the consequences of your actions. Or maybe you are reminded of a past event when your immediate reaction created more trouble than it was worth. A touch of self-restraint now could be enough to prevent your world from turning upside down.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You might have to shift your attention to an unfolding domestic drama now that the Moon is visiting your 4th House of Home and Family. You may be so busy at work lately that you’re not spending sufficient quality time with your loved ones. Let those who are special to you know how you feel or they could end up wondering if you care anymore. A little bit of authentic affection goes a long way to make everyone happy.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Your unrealistic expectations about your schedule encourage you to think that you can take time for your own pleasure today. But it’s easy to set yourself up for failure now by wanting too much. Big ideas must be pared back over the days ahead or you might hit a wall of resistance. It’s better to constrain yourself voluntarily than to wait for unpleasant circumstances to suddenly stop you in your tracks. Choosing a more responsible approach improves your chances for success.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Demonstrating your love with tenderness is usually easier than making grandiose gestures. But you could do things differently today, snagging someone’s attention by overplaying your part in a drama. After all is said and done, you may feel embarrassed, wishing you hadn’t made a scene. Although there’s no need to overstate your feelings now, you don’t have to apologize if you do. There’s nothing wrong with sharing your heart.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Avoid the temptation to express yourself in a melodramatic way today because you could shock others if you go too far. Although everything feels urgent now, it’s wise to turn down the volume on your intensity. Thankfully, the drama will begin to subside after tomorrow’s Leo Full Moon, yet you may end up wishing you kept some of your secrets to yourself. Remember, you don’t have to share all of your fantasies; some things are better left to the imagination, instead.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might experience an exciting epiphany today that empowers you to break free from an old pattern at work. Unfortunately, endless logical analysis isn’t a viable substitute for direct action. Even if you know what to do now, you’re still limited by how you see yourself in relationship to others. Experiment, be outrageous and imagine possibilities you haven’t yet considered. Believing in magic can make amazing things happen.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Making the most of your time today is the most meaningful gift you can give to yourself and others. Be courageous; stepping into your leadership role and setting a good example are the smartest ways to give your coworkers an inkling of what they can do. If you settle for less now, then that’s what you’ll inadvertently pass along to everyone else, diluting the shared experience. Seize the moment and your allies will happily follow along.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your need for peace and quiet comes and goes in waves today, but you can’t justify an escape until you meet your previous obligations. Of course, you are naturally inclined to honor the promises you made to help others, instead of just taking care of your own needs. Although it may seem impossible at first, you can have it both ways now if you’re willing to take a risk. A radical approach might be the key to finishing up your work early, leaving time for your well-deserved rest and relaxation.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Although you technically agree that rules are necessary to maintain order, it’s still fun to dream far beyond the accepted norm. Unfortunately, you don’t like to feel restrained by the same laws that govern everyone else. You are so enthused by the potential of the moment now that you may not even consider what’s right and what’s wrong. Luckily, cosmic energy is on your side, so taking a calculated risk is a good idea today; you can always philosophize about it after the fact.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You want to demonstrate how intuitive you are now and might go out of your way just to let others see you in action. Sharing your inner process with those closest to you can be exhilarating, but the interpersonal dynamics may grow complicated if you are insecure about your current approach. It’s not time to worry about anyone’s reaction to your quirky behavior. Just trust your hunches today; they won’t likely steer you wrong.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You are short on patience now, especially with those who want your attention so badly today that they do a song and dance to get it. You just can’t understand why anyone would need to put on such a performance since you are usually so good at recognizing people’s contributions. Although you prefer to ignore someone’s selfish behavior, you may be better off today indulging others for the sake of group harmony.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You have a lot on your plate today, but your coworkers might not be aware of your strong commitment to get things done. Your hard work may go unnoticed at first but don’t let your need for recognition be your only motivation. Still, receiving praise is satisfying, as long as you don’t quit before your tasks are completely finished. Satisfaction from a job well done can be surprisingly sweet.

Invocation to the Moon

Invocation to the Moon
by Patricia Telesco

I come into your garden fair,
To Waltz upon the dew.
To look upon your handiwork,
While morning still is new.

I come into your meadow fair,
To laugh upon the lawn,
To stare upon a red-blue sky,
Working magic come the dawn.

I come into your forest fair,
To sing among the trees,
To sway carefree amidst the leaves
Come full the noon-day breeze.

I come into your greenwood fair,
To watch the sunlight play,
As it dances towards the dusk,
And sparkles like the fey.

I come into your grove so fair,
The cloak of night comes round,
To gather stars within its sweep
And shine upon the ground.

I come upon your world so fair,
And think on what I’ve seen
Then fall to sleep with Gods of old,
And dream on moon-beam wings

Solitary Full Moon Invocation #2

Loving Mother of us all,
Hearken now, and hear my call,
Descend upon my sacred space
And bless me with Your love and grace!
Give your guidance, send Your light,
Grant Your wisdom here this night
Please aid me in my magick quest
That I might choose what’s always best
Counsel, teach me, show the way
Guide me on my path, I pray
That in Your service I might be
A blessing to humanity.

Invocation – What is it?

INVOCATION – WHAT IS IT?

How?

Invocation is not so hard. You don’t need to be a rocket scientists for that,
You need just a sparkle of imagination and most of all, You need to relax, to
feel Your internal peace and power. This is usually made with meditation or some
other relaxation method. I made a unique way to get this peace. Make some sort
of copy of Your happy emotions (love, peace, happiness, wisdom,…). Than use
this like some sort  of defense shield. Whenever You feel angry, just think of
something or someone You loved with all Your heart and just let Yourself, that
the love flood every piece of Your body and mind. With peace You can invoke the
Goddess of Light.

When?

waxing moon for spells of invitation or increase
-Examples: spells to find love or get a job
waning moon for spells of banishing or decrease
-Examples: spells to end loneliness or financial problems
full moon for:
-maximum power
-coven work

What for?

The spells are often made acording to zodiac circle. Every sign has its
traditiomal needs, like:

-Aries
battle, beginnings
-Taurus
money spells, sex magic
-Gemini
communication
-Cancer
psychic work, lunar magic
-Leo
leadership, solar power
-Virgo
purification
-Libra
balance, work in law or for justice
-Scorpio
power
-Sagittarius
honesty, expansion
-Capricorn
overcoming obstacles
-Aquarius
healing
-Pisces
psychic work, endings
But, often spells are not made for traditional purposes, but for custom.

Who?

This is very large question. It depends of what You believe in (I believe in
Goddess, but for spells I use gods also). You can use Gods, Goddess, spirits,
heroes, etc.
More is in the Gods/Godess section.
Examples:

Isis: Protection, magic
Thoth: Reincarnation and magic
Aphrodite: Love and passion

Invocation
Invocation can be as simple as they can get, like this:
O,____________
O, Isis
Just a little more complex:
Mighty ________, invoked by me
Mighty Thoth, invoked by Me
or very complex:
Seven stars of brightest skies invoke You, _______ to seek and find to love
in might, to give, to take and nothing to break.
Seven stars of brightest skies invoke You, Ra to seek and find to love in
might, to give, to take and nothing to break.

Make Your own and make it right, with the power of the Light. Find the way
to Goddess word, as You can listen and You can heard.

Daily Horoscopes for February 12th

We may not be very forthcoming with our feelings this morning. Ironically, it’s tempting to get angry with someone else for being emotionally distant. However, the timid Cancer Moon shifts into expressive Leo at 2:15 pm EST, prompting us to say what’s been on our minds. Unfortunately, a tricky lunar alignment with retrograde Mercury can muddle messages and manifest misunderstandings. Thankfully, clarity begins to return as soon as tomorrow.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You can work yourself into a state of high anxiety this morning, but luckily, your moodiness dissipates later in the day. Paradoxically, you might even feel strangely optimistic without anything actually happening to support your belief that things are improving. Nevertheless, a sudden adjustment in attitude is exactly the catalyst you need to shift your life into the next gear. Don’t be afraid to plan for the future; it will be here sooner than you think.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You could spend much of your day revisiting problems that developed over the last few weeks. Thankfully, your frustration is fading, but the desired results are still beyond your grasp. Oddly enough, your confidence remains unshaken and you’re sure things will turn around without a lot of extra work on your part. Taking the easy way out is tempting, but a proactive approach to change can make the difference between failure and success.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Your current plans may not be progressing as quickly as you wish. You might even be slightly annoyed with someone who has been standing in your way, but now they appear to change their behavior and help, rather than block, your efforts. Holding a grudge is ill-advised; accept the energetic shift as a positive sign that you’re on the right track today, even if your goals still seem far out of reach. A grateful outlook serves you well.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Although you may feel mired in an emotional conflict, circumstances begin to change this afternoon, prompting you to realize that you have less time than you thought. Don’t be lazy; if you have something to say, go ahead and speak your piece, even if your declaration might spark an uncomfortable discussion. Getting your feelings out into the open today helps to get the ball rolling and sets the stage for resolution. Now is better than never.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The waiting game is over; it’s time to make your move. Perhaps you have recently tried a variety of tactics to push a pressing relationship issue along, but to no avail. Now that the Moon is returning to your dramatic sign, the winds of change are blowing up a storm. There’s no reason to resist the movement, even if you aren’t sure which direction you’re heading. Be bold and ride this cosmic wave for all it’s worth.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Even if you have something important to say to a coworker today, you may end up keeping your thoughts to yourself. Although you might imagine shouting your message from the top of a mountain, the Moon’s shift into your 12th House of Privacy tells a different story. Sharing the news with grandiose declarations isn’t your style, and could leave you with pangs of regret. Focusing on the details is still the most effective way to make your case. Your silence says volumes to those who bother to listen

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You can see potential in things that other folks miss today, and it’s up to you to use this special vision to your advantage. Ultimately, it’s your innate creativity that enables you to discover these magical possibilities. Now it’s time to jump in and play an active role in manifesting results. However, don’t try to do everything all at once or you might burn out too quickly. Follow your intuition and turn your dreams into tangible reality.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

It’s about time that you receive the credit you deserve for all the work that you do. However, the current recognition might not be about your regular duties at home or on the job. More likely, you’re being acknowledged for what you bring to the world by who you are when you show up. It may be nearly impossible for others to put this special quality into words, yet you will know you are appreciated now by how people act in your presence. Don’t push away the love; receive it with a gracious heart and a touch of humility.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your future is beginning to open up and your dreams appear a bit closer than before. Nevertheless, you are still aware of how much planning there is yet to be done. Thankfully, you are feeling more energetic day by day. Additionally, it seems as if the mental fog is lifting and your thinking is growing sharper. It’s a good idea now to map out your schedule for the next few weeks. Make the necessary commitment, figure out the logistics and get to work today.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Today’s dilemma might stem from not knowing how much to tell others regarding your latest news. You may be really excited about a new project, plan or relationship, but aren’t ready to say anything until you are more certain that everything is moving along as you wish. Nevertheless, it might be smarter to share your enthusiasm now, along with your concerns. The feedback and support you receive can help you more than you think.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Although you may start your day in a quiet frame of mind, an enthusiastic friend could coax you out of your seclusion. Perhaps you thought that you would simply go about your day, doing your work and minding your own business, only to discover a much different path in store for you now. Don’t resist an enticing invitation just because you have too much work to do. You can always come back and tie up loose ends later on. Surrendering to a surprise might just be your best option today.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You’re standing at the edge of a clearing, yet you can’t tell which way to go. Fortunately, you will step through this window of opportunity as your direction becomes apparent over the next few days. In the meantime, make the most of where you are now by paying attention to every little detail. Observe how others respond to you, but don’t forget to also tune into your own creative process. Remember, if something occurs in your imagination, there’s a good chance it can also happen in your real life.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for February 12th

At 12:00AM — as this day begins — Juno merges with Chiron at 12 degrees of Pisces. Put an emphasis on healing and uplifting primary partnerships that need sustenance and support right now. This may be easier said than done as the Moon parallels Saturn (12:28AM) while Mercury piles on by squaring Saturn (3:57AM) and the Moon then also forms the monthly conjunction with Saturn (5:44AM). Pushing the business envelope in any form is taboo.  The Moon in Scorpio is in void mode starting at 5:56AM and lasting over 13 hours until 7:14PM when the lunar orb enters upbeat, goal-oriented Sagittarius. Anticipate some stormy psychic weather and stubborn human emotions blocking forward progress during the void-of-course lunar cycle.  Once Sagittarius Moon materializes at 7:14PM, focus your gaze on reaching long-sought goals — particularly on the literary, educational and publishing fronts. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

Anthesteria Day 2: Khoes

Color: Purple
Element: Earth
Altar: On a purple cloth set a pitcher of wine, the ship of Dionysos, some children’s toys, six purple candles, and a wreath of grapevines and flowers.
Offerings: Ritual sex. Giving up of things left over from childhood. Wine libations.
Daily Meal: Goat or lamb. Lentils. Greek food. Wine.

Khoes Invocation

On this day comes the child to his adulthood.
On this day comes the child to her readiness.
On this day he tastes the sweetness of maturity.
On this day she tastes the joy of ripening.
On this day we honor that which has come to fruition
And that which can no longer be protected.
We give up our self-enclosed innocence
For the promise of the deeper experience.
Come forth and join the rite of passage
That you may give up that which was before
And come to that which will be.
Io Dionysos!
Fair-Flowering, Reveller, Stormer,
Twice-Born, Lord of the Dance,
We who kneel before you pray
That you will be gentle with our
Little madnesses, and if you must
Drag us by the hair
To some new understanding,
Let it be done soon, and quickly,
For we would rather leap to doom
Than delay on the edge of the cliff.

(Let all make a circle, and let cups of wine be passed around to everyone. Let two who have been chosen from inside or outside the community come forth and lay in the center of the circle, and perform the hieros gamos, whilst the others turn their backs and chant wordlessly. Afterwards, let the wine be poured out in a libation, with the last two cups used to anoint the couple, and have them drink in a toast. Later that night, sex is appropriate between those whose vows do not exclude it, but those who would lie together must meditate on the responsibility inherent in being a sexually active adult, and how it brought them out of childhood and into adulthood.)

The Witches Magick for Feb. 11th – Overcoming your Shadows

Overcoming your Shadows

Items You Will Need:

Cedar or sage smudging stick or cleansing incense
Bell Athame or ritual knife
White candle
Cakes and wine or juice

Purpose:

This spell, which signifies letting go the hurts of the past in a way that allows you to move forward with fresh energy into the future, can be performed at the time of the New Moon. By carrying it out every New Moon you are gradually able to cleanse yourself of the detritus of the past, often as far back as childhood

The Spell:

Cast your circle using the smudge stick or -incense to sweep the space as you move -around the circle clockwise.

Think of your space as being dome-shaped -over your head and cleanse that space too.

Ring the bell.

With your arms raised and your palms facing -upwards, acknowledge the Goddess and say:

Great Goddess, Queen of the Underworld, Protector of all believers in you, It is my will on this night of the new moon

To overcome my shadows and bring about change.

I invite you to this my circle to assist and protect

me in my rite.

Hold your athame or knife in your hands in -acknowledgement of the God and say:

Great God, Lord of the Upper realms, Friend of all who work with you, It is my will on this night of the new moon To overcome my shadows to bring about change. I invite you to my circle to assist me and protect me in my rite.

Light the candle and say:

Behind me the darkness, in front of me the light As the wheel turns, I know that every end is a beginning. I see birth, death and regeneration.

Spend a little time in quiet thought. If you can -remember a time either in the last month or-previously when times have not been good-for you, concentrate on that.

While the candle begins to burn properly -remember what that time felt like.

Now concentrate on the candle flame and -allow yourself to feel the positivity of the-light. Pick up the candle and hold it high-above your head.

Feel the energy of the light shower down -around you, the negativity drain away.

Now draw the power of the light into you -and feel the energy flowing through you.

Pass the candle around you and visualize the -energy building up.

If you wish, say: “Let the light cast out darkness.”

Now ground yourself by partaking of the -food and drink. Thank the God and Goddess -for their presence.

Withdraw the circle.

This is a very personal way for you to acknowledge the God and Goddess in your everyday life. While on first acquaintance it appears to be a protection technique, it is actually one to enhance your energies and to allow you to be healthy and happy in all levels of existence.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, February 10th

We may have less on our minds today and the reduced mental noise means we can get in touch with deeper feelings. In fact, we’re not as tempted to waste words by engaging in idle chatter once the Moon enters emotional Cancer at 1:32 am EST. Instead, our tendency is to clam up and withhold controversial ideas. It might take a few days to overcome our resistance because the Sun squares constrictive Saturn tomorrow, pulling in the reins of control.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your head and your heart are in the middle of their favorite argument about which one has the best advice to give. You are torn between following your rational logic and surrendering to your irrational feelings. But even after you have analyzed the situation and determined what’s best, you are still intrigued by yet another direction. Ironically, there may not be a single correct answer today, regardless of which approach you favor. Explore all the possibilities while keeping your options open as long as you can.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Try not to be overly dramatic when you tell someone what you think today, for you can quickly lose credibility if you overstate your position. Stick to the facts and you should be able to sway others to agree with your point of view. Often your greatest obstacle is your own stubbornness. Luckily, your willingness to compromise now is a relief for everyone involved. Establishing common ground right from the start is the fastest route to success.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

If you run into a wall today, your unexpressed emotions might actually prevent you from having your way. However, don’t give up; there’s no need to stop yet. You can still reach your goals, but you first have to process your repressed feelings that aren’t yet integrated into your daily life. Acting from your heart now can increase your chances of getting what you want as long as you’re honest with yourself.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Your feelings grow too big to hide as the reflective Moon returns to your sign very early this morning. You may be convinced to disclose something you haven’t yet shared, even if revealing your desires makes things temporarily awkward. If you are keeping any secrets, use this time to clear the air. Think about the potential of the weeks ahead and then set the record straight while you can. There’s no time like the present to be your authentic self.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Although avoiding the chores on your list today isn’t a great idea, some quiet time for reflection can also be rejuvenating. You will be happier and more productive if you balance your responsibilities with a bit of relaxation. But don’t attempt to escape your obligations completely or you could regret it sooner than you think when you’re required to go back and finish up your work.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Balancing your desire to spend time with your friends against your need to be alone can be quite a tricky dance today. However, you could choose to sit back and be the quiet one in the group, since you really don’t need to be talkative to enjoy yourself. However, no matter what you do, integrity is crucial because you are setting a long-term trajectory these days. Even if you don’t want to reveal too much, speak your truth by saying what’s in your heart.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Although you’re usually not the one to be the mothering type, you’re inclined to take care of anyone that comes into your sphere of influence today. However, you can be generous to a fault, so be careful that you don’t suppress your anger just for the sake of approval. Everyone around you will feel more comfortable if you are honest in your relationships, even if there needs to be some intense discussions along the way. True intimacy is possible if you’re willing to keep it real.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may be drawn to a romantic notion of getting away from it all, yet this kind of escape might sound better than it really is. Nevertheless, a well-planned trip makes sense now. There’s no need to be impulsive about it, but the sooner you get out of town for some rest and relaxation, the better. If possible, invite someone else along on your adventure, since the energy you receive from others on your upcoming excursion can fuel your enthusiasm.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

A touch of tension hangs in the air this afternoon and discussing your discomfort may just add to the uneasy atmosphere. In fact, even working closely with others now could agitate your frustration. Ironically, you don’t really want to be alone today, but it still might be better to withdraw for a little while. If you begin to lose patience, taking a practical approach will help you keep everything in a healthy perspective.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Although you might feel as if this is a great day to try an innovative approach to a project at work, don’t lose sight of the more mundane aspects of your creative skills. It could be a real challenge to get others to support your ideas if they don’t fit into the current plan. Thankfully, you have the amazing ability to transform your thoughts into actions now. If you don’t waste energy doubting yourself, you can accomplish a lot more than you expect.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your secret agent lifestyle has outlived its usefulness at work and keeping something hidden might only make you feel uncomfortable now. It’s time to open up and spill the beans. There’s no need to hang on to the past any longer. Push yourself out of your comfort zone by setting new ideas into motion today. Others could appreciate your honesty so much that they follow your example, giving you the perfect chance to lend a sympathetic ear.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

An emotionally charged atmosphere presents problems today. You may even become so involved in a heated discussion now that you have a hard time separating your feelings from those of everyone else. Your sensitivity is valuable, but only if you are willing to see things realistically. Rely only on the facts that you can check. But don’t close down your imagination for too long; it will serve you well again in just a few days.

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of February 10th

The week that hosts the most romantic day of the year — Valentine’s Day — isn’t likely to disappoint. Still, it’ll start out with more sobriety than you may want to deal with. That’s because the Sun will square off with Saturn on Tuesday, and it may feel difficult to shine in the presence of your lover. In fact, you might feel slighted — as if he or she has more criticism than positive feedback. Nevermind, because the weekend is what really matters. A Full Moon in Leo on Valentine’s Day promises hearts, flowers and bold declarations of love. Combined with a trine between the Sun and Mars on the same day there will also be plenty of energy for “dessert.”
Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

When it comes to passion, you want to focus on the extraordinary lineup of planetary energy that begins on Friday. First, a Full Moon in your romance sector on Valentine’s Day will bring emotional fulfillment. If you’re dating someone special you’ll know your love is true. If you’re single, you might feel that emotional longing to love again. The good news, however, is that instead of feeling sorry for yourself, you’ll socialize. In fact, an outing with friends might lead to an unexpected meeting with someone who drives you wild!

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Romance might not be your first priority early in the week. On Tuesday, it’s possible you’ll feel frustrated with your mate if you get the sense that he or she isn’t supporting one of your professional goals. Keep in mind that your love might come across as hard on you but this is only because he or she wants you to be the best you can be. By Friday, you might be ready to introduce a new love interest to your family or meet his or her clan.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Distractions at work early in the week won’t ruin your chances for romantic enjoyment by the weekend. In fact, by then you’ll feel as if you’ve earned your fun … and you certainly will have! An entertaining conversation with someone special might lead to an exciting evening on Friday. If you’re dating someone, it’s possible you’ll exchange meaningful cards for Valentine’s Day that are filled with poetic sentiments about your affection for one another. The best part of the weekend, however, will be your incredibly adventurous sex drive. Savor it!

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You might feel hopelessly frustrated in matters of the heart on Tuesday. Your lover might not be as willing to open up as you are, and instead of respecting his or her space, you might interpret it as a personal affront. Don’t be hypersensitive. Instead, try to see where your lover is coming from. He or she may have significant trust issues to overcome. If you can assure your sweetheart that you’re in it for the long haul, you might help to loosen the vice grip around his or her heart.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

When it comes to love, this is certainly your time to shine. A Full Moon in Leo on Friday promises you’ll wear your heart on your sleeve. You’ll have every intention of enjoying Valentine’s Day fun to the max with your sweetie. In your typical grand fashion you’ll likely spoil your lover with an extravagant gift or an over the top display of affection. You might also plan for an extra special night out — one that your mate will remember for years to come.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might second-guess your lovability quotient early this week — especially near Tuesday. You might fear rejection, and because of this you may keep your crush for someone a complete secret. If you choose to go this route you’ll only be cheating yourself, because you’ll never know what might have been. Have the courage to move past any self-doubt and claim the love you deserve. If attached, you might be in for a spectacular romantic surprise on Valentine’s Day that your love has managed to keep under wraps.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You might feel frustrated in romantic matters early this week because it’s possible that a lover might leave you flat broke. Are you feeling pressured to come up with an extravagant Valentine’s Day gift? If so, you might break the bank in order to impress your sweetheart. Don’t go shopping close to Tuesday — you will only regret such poor judgment. By Friday, however, you’ll be in a sweet spot to enjoy social fulfillment with your lover and incredibly gratifying “extra-curricular” activities as well!

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Domestic strife might cut into romance for you — at least early in the week. Your obligations at home have been quite intense, and it’s likely you’re feeling more confused about how to balance family and the rest of your life. Try to cut yourself some slack and recognize that even you have a breaking point. If you’re feeling overwhelmed between work and career responsibilities you’ll have no room to enjoy what could be a spectacular Valentine’s Day weekend. That would be a shame.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You might feel as if no matter how hard you try to convey yourself to your partner, he or she just isn’t “getting” you. Mercury will backpedal into your message sector on Wednesday, making it even more difficult for you to get your message across easily. Being misunderstood might frustrate you so much that you decide to exchange conversations as little as possible. Make an exception for Valentine’s Day, however. You’ll have a boost of support if you and your sweetie are out and about.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

One of your friends might leave you feeling filled with self-doubt about your ability to attract someone in your mutual social circle. Before you give into his or her criticism, consider whether or not this person is a true friend, or if they are merely trying to sabotage your potential love match. It’s possible this pal doesn’t have your best interests at heart. If you’re in a relationship, however, you can expect an erotically delicious Valentine’s Day. Deep, transformative, emotional connection is possible between you and your mate.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your boss might be so hard on you early in the week that it leaves you feeling gloomy. Put your nose to the grindstone and deliver whatever is required on the job so that by Friday you can enjoy your Valentine’s Day weekend freely. In fact, if you’re in a relationship, the Full Moon in your partnership sector on Friday will allow you and your mate to enjoy a special, sentimental bond. You might even choose to deepen your commitment by moving in together, becoming engaged or even deciding to marry.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You might become so private about your thoughts this week that your partner convinces him or herself that you’re hiding something. Do your best to address any paranoia before it gets out of hand. Reassure your mate that you are “all in,” but that sometimes you require an extraordinary amount of alone time to recharge your spiritual batteries. A great compromise would be to spend the weekend at a spa where you could enjoy a couple’s massage or other pampering treatment.
