Weekend Lunar Love Horoscope for Jan. 29-31, 2011
Shake Things Up!
Adventure is in the air with the Moon in thrill-seeking Sagittarius on Friday and Saturday. This optimistic and outgoing sign favors travel, foreign cultures, physical activities and philosophical discussions. Opinions may be strong now but as long as they are leavened with humor, different points of view can spur a playful romance. Letting go of the past is essential in this forward-looking sign; settling scores or holding onto grudges is a definite mood killer. If there are difficult issues to discuss, it’s wise to wait until Sunday when the Moon enters responsible Capricorn. But until then, playing in the casino of love is the greatest game in town and just like in Vegas there are no clocks on the wall to tell us when the party’s over. (more…)
Weekend Lunar Love Horoscope for Jan. 21-23, 2011
The bouncy Moon in lively Leo starts Friday off in a playful manner but the mood is likely to turn a bit more serious before the day is done, due to Luna’s move into practical Virgo in the evening. Still, love can flourish in this meticulous and analytical sign as long as emotional extremes are avoided. Virgo values reason, organization and tidiness, and encourages us to shine by demonstrating our competence and reliability. Sloppy thinking, being tardy or acting inappropriately can be major turn-offs and interpreted as disrespectful and rude. But don’t get the idea that we’ve got to be so uptight that we can’t have any fun now. Instead of searching for the next party, we can enjoy ourselves working on personal projects, developing our skills or by helping others. (more…)
Weekend Lunar Love Horoscope for Jan. 7-9, 2011
Friday gets off to a slow start with the Moon in cool Aquarius and the Sun forming a stressful square with strict Saturn. But the environment softens in the afternoon when the Moon joins imaginative Neptune, inviting fantasies that wash away barriers to romance. The Moon enters compassionate Pisces in the evening, aligning in a potent relationship with loving Venus to stir the heart’s desires. These conditions are ideal for losing ourselves in a magical world where worries fade as dreams of amour make even the most unlikely partner seem interesting. This fascination is really about an urge to merge that can undermine discrimination and lead to regrets if we’re not careful about the person on whom we project these feelings. It’s fine to sacrifice reason for a romantic ride as long as no one is counting on this interlude as a solid foundation for a lasting relationship. (more…)

Weekend Lunar Love Horoscope for December 3-5
Let Go of the Past
This is a transformational weekend when it’s best to let go of the past and plunge boldly into the future. The unrelenting Scorpio Moon is close to the end of its monthly cycle with the Sun. It’s time now to release emotions and relinquish attitudes that stand in the way of love. While it’s fine to revisit memories, the purpose is to extract whatever value you can find and then head in a new direction.
This journey begins with the lunar ingress into optimistic Sagittarius early on Saturday as eyes and hearts look ahead to a brighter tomorrow. Bold promises are made and expectations could be unrealistic, yet the Sagittarius New Moon on Sunday signals a fresh start. Expanding the boundaries in a current alliance, encountering new people or experimenting with different ways to connect can be quite exciting, but also might leave you feeling uncertain as you travel through unfamiliar territory.
