Happy Birthday. You’ll grow in authority this year and use your power to make sales, point people in the right direction and make good decisions in your own right. The next three weeks bring a financial high. May brings good news for your family. Old friends and special visits are featured in June. You’ll hit a goalpost in August.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Along with love go hope and luck. The people you extend your heart to will get your best wishes and intentions. These are more than thoughts in the air. They can be felt. They have power.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You like the kind of love that makes you feel puffed up and invincible, and yet you’ll find that the very best kind of love is the kind that humbles you and makes you want to be a better person.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21): Cupid’s aim is illogical, but no matter - the heart has its own logic.You can’t direct the trajectory of your heart any more than you can improve the archery skills of a small baby with wings.
CANCER (June 22-July 22): You tell yourself many things. But someone else shows you sweetness today that trumps any nice thing you’ve said to yourself.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): There are reasons for why you are attracted to a certain person. There is no such thing as skin-deep beauty. The muscles beneath are activated by emotions, thoughts and the yearnings of a heart.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The best gift you will give is a gift to someone who will never be able to repay you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You can think and act independently - that much has been proved. It’s a tribute to your love that you’d rather not. Things are much more fun when the two of you make decisions together these days.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): The French author Andre Maurois said, “In literature, as in love, we are astounded by what is chosen by others.” That will be half of the fun today.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Maybe it’s the lazy way, or maybe it’s the fearless, honest and direct way - the jury is still out. But the way that appeals to you most now is to simply say “I love you.”
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Everyone you love makes you laugh. They do it unexpectedly and yet consistently. You’ll try to return the favor today and succeed.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):You may not be entirely sure of what you’re getting into, but you are surely getting into it. As artist, writer and creativity champion Lynda Barry observed, “Love is an exploding cigar we willingly smoke.”
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): One Kenny Rogers song suggests that “love will turn you around, turn you around.” And that is the country music interpretation that will sum up your experience on this day of hearts.
