ARIES (March 20 – April 18)
This is a good week to rifle through that psychic closet of yours in search of those assumptions and expectations that no longer suit you. Is your heart really still broken? Are all men pigs? Are you holding out for that special someone or are you just keeping him at bay? You may think that these ideas still apply but try them on and see if they fit. You may find that you outgrew these notions a long time ago and that they've gone the way of flip phones and boy bands.

TAURUS (April 19 – May 19)
Can you do better? That's what you'll be wondering these next four weeks as ruling planet Venus crosses your solar midheaven. Named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty, Venus is all about marrying up. OK. Maybe you're not that mercenary, but you want a winner not a whiner. If you're attached to someone who's ambitious and driven, then you're in good shape. If you're bankrolling some coffee house guitar playing dude, then you'll be kicking him to the curb soon. Why settle for a barristo when you go for the big bucks?

GEMINI (May 20 – June 19)
Improvements in your partner's family situation should put him at ease by week's end. This could pertain to his parents, siblings or children by another marriage. This pushes your buttons because it feels like he's the go-to person when people are in trouble but the first one they forget about once the problem's been solved. You two have had words over this (you don't want him to be a doormat), but what can be said? Family is family. In any case, he should be free of at least one thankless obligation by late June.

CANCER (June 20 – July 21)
It's been hard to tell if things were off or on with your boyfriend for months. Part of this was due to a spike in commitment phobia and part of it was a direct result of Jupiter being retrograde in your zodiac sign. Thankfully retrogrades don't last forever as you will see on March 6. If you hear from him on that day, then that means that he got over his cold feet and he's ready to commit. If you don't? Move on. He clearly doesn't know a good thing when he sees it.

LEO (July 22 – Aug. 21)
You don't do well when you feel beholden to anyone. A big part of you wants to be treated like a queen (what Leo woman doesn't?), but there's a price to pay since monarchies aren't exactly what they used to be. Even the British royal family has to account for their expenses. Venus in Aquarius on March 6 says that you can't have it both ways. If you want to be worshiped, then be more appreciative and if you want true equality, then climb down off that pedestal and start bringing home more bacon.

VIRGO (Aug. 22 – Sept. 21)
It looks as if children are the overriding fixation right now. Maybe it's your children who are stealing all the focus, wanting to have a child, or perhaps you're investing all of your energy in being the mother to your boyfriend's kids that they never had. In any case, he's feeling lost in the mix and may start acting out. The worst thing to do would be to treat him like another child. Schedule an evening out alone together so that you can reconnect as a couple. You both need it more than you know.

LIBRA (Sept. 22 – Oct. 21)
You've had it with partners (both romantic and professional) cramping your style. They don't seem to understand that a relationship is made up of three parts: you, him and the relationship itself. When you speak about doing what's right for your relationship you're not saying that you'll defer to your partner. Your willingness to do what it takes to make your relationship work shouldn't be misinterpreted as self-sacrifice or giving your partner carte blanche to do whatever he pleases. Venus in Aquarius from March 5 to April 5 will help re-establish the balance between you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 22 – Nov. 20)
Just because things take place behind closed doors doesn't mean that you can't talk about what's up. You were born under the most secretive sign of the zodiac. People come to you with their problems and tell you things that they would never tell anyone else. But who do you go to with your worries and concerns about your personal life? Thankfully Venus's tenure in Aquarius (March 5 – April 5) shows you reaching out to friends and bringing them into your confidence. This will do a lot to lighten the emotional load you've been carrying.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 21 – Dec. 20)
Jupiter comes out of retrograde on March 6. This is good news for you because Jupiter's been moving backwards in that part of the sky that rules over your sex life. This would probably explain why you've been so frustrated in this area of your life since November 2013. Thankfully things are looking up and you can look forward to getting some action. Keep in mind that sex doesn't always translate into romance. You may have to wait a little longer for that to pan out. Meanwhile don't wear your heart on your sleeve.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 21 – Jan. 18)
Venus leaves your zodiac sign on March 5. A lot of things have happened in your love life since Venus entered Capricorn in November 2013. You are probably no longer single and you may even feel cautiously optimistic that you've found the love of your life. If you're already married, then the past few months (though not always easy) have brought you two even closer together. Capricorn isn't regarded as one of the great romantic signs of the zodiac, but even curmudgeonly goats can turn over new leaves when Venus works her magic.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 19 – Feb. 17)
You may notice that guys are really starting to check you out this week. At first you'll turn around to see if they're looking at someone else. And then you might wonder if you've got food stuck between your teeth, but rest assured that they're looking at you. This is what happens when you have Venus, the planet of love and beauty, traveling through your zodiac sign. She turns you into a walking, talking man magnet. It's great if you're single and awkward if you're not. Enjoy it while it lasts, which is through April 5.

PISCES (Feb. 18 – March 19)
People born under Pisces are often accused of living in a fantasy world. Your imagination plays an active role in your everyday life. When you remember how much time people spend on the internet, then you'll see that fantasies aren't quite the air castles they used to be. It's why you may find it jarring to see a romantic wish materialize as a reality on March 6. It's hard to believe that there are still knights in shining armor in the world, but then again some things have to be believed to be seen.
