Aries: People are talking, but all you hear is ‘Wa wa wa wa wa.’ You’re just unfocused and totally disinterested in the pomp and circumstance of life. Lay low for the time being. When your head starts to clear up, get involved. But don’t rush: better to go at your own pace.
Taurus: If you’ve been feeling a bit squirmy in a relationship, things start to turn around for the better. Whether it’ll last is up to the stars, but for now, just enjoy the sunny side of the street. Companionship, fun and flirting are where it’s at!
Gemini: Your creativity’s on a tear right now, so whether you’re alone or hanging out with a certain someone, do something original. Dress up in an outfit and hit the town, create a website, write some lyrics or finish up that craft project. The momentum is in your court.
Cancer: The holding pattern is getting old. One day it’s on the other, it’s off. It’s time to have ‘the talk.’ Before you talk of any sort of commitment, define what it is you’re looking for. Without any sort of goal or expectation in mind, you’ll appear confused and, even worse, needy.
Leo: If you’ve experienced any changes in your romantic relationship status lately, take it slow and give it some time to settle in. The transition should be casual rather than deliberate. Don’t apply too much pressure or all your hard work will go to waste.
Virgo: If you’re not sure about this person, think about how you feel when he or she touches you. Do you melt in ecstasy? Or does a kiss send you into a fit of PTSD? Your reaction to sensation should quell any doubts you’re harboring. Let your nerves do the talkin’.
Libra: Dirty-mouthed, sex-craved lunatics, though irresistible, should fall off your list of potential candidates. Anyone who reverts to shock value to make an impression is missing the mark (and a few marbles). Look for quality: people who act like gentlemen and ladies.
Scorpio: If you’re overly concerned with his sweaty armpits and her sloppy grammar, it’s okay. Superficial details tell a lot about a person so pay attention to that stuff. Even if it’s not the ultimate deal breaker, it’ll come in handy when it comes to making the final determination.
Sagittarius: Watch out for the friendly offers of others to set you up on dates. Don’t do it unless you seek lots of clarification. Find out from the matchmaker what you have in common with this particular candidate. If you’re unsatisfied with their answer, pass.
Capricorn: Don’t be surprised to find yourself on the dullest date ever with a person who asks you questions just so he or she can impress you with their answers. End it early with a feigned headache or emergency — or if you’re feeling extremely honest, the truth never hurts either.
Aquarius: You may lead someone on without even knowing it, so be kind. If you don’t intend on calling them or seeing them ever again, don’t say it. Remember, these are adults, and if they can’t handle the let down, well, that’s not your fault. As long as you side of the street is clean, you’re good to go.
Pisces: If your most recent date was a flop, but you sensed a spark, give it another chance. Meeting people, especially under the auspices of getting to know each other, is awkward. Of course things will seem weird and tense. Don’t let a mediocre first date ruin an awesome opportunity!
