ARIES (March 20 – April 18)
Everyone makes bone-headed mistakes and this week your boyfriend pulls a real doozy. It's so bad that he probably won't tell you about it; however, it's so big that you can't help but find out from family members or friends. He's bound to be mortified and full of remorse so treat him with kid gloves. Reassure him that whatever he's done it's not the end of the world. People have done worse and survived and he will too. After all, there but for the grace of God go any of us.

TAURUS (April 19 – May 19)
There's something to be said for being stuck with someone. It forces you to work together. This is reinforced by Saturn's retrograde in your opposite sign which shows that you are handcuffed to each other for the foreseeable future (that is until July) and you've no choice but to combine forces if you want to survive the rough terrain that lies ahead. This could wind up having the opposite effect of what you originally intended. Instead of trying to escape this person, you may come to discover sides of him you never saw before.

GEMINI (May 20 – June 19)
You often make fun of people's blunders. You may not clap when a dish crashes to the floor in a restaurant, but the impulse is there. Part of this comes from playing the class clown and part of this comes from a need to show that you're better than that. You don't think you're superior, but you do think you're smarter. Your lover is your twin; he mirrors sides of yourself you don't always see. This week when you make fun of something he's done wrong, ask yourself what you're trying to prove.

CANCER (June 20 – July 21)
Is that all there is to a love affair? That's what you'll be asking on March 13 when you take off those rose-colored glasses. Planetary aspects involving Saturn are always eye-opening experiences. Sometimes the disappointment is crushing and sometimes it's liberating because it allows you to be human. In your case, it will be like the training wheels have been taken off your bicycle. You can either stand there paralyzed by fear (what if you fall off?) or you can hop aboard and take that relationship to the next level. It's up to you.

LEO (July 22 – Aug. 21)
He says things are “fine” but you can tell that something's eating him. You can feel the resentment in his monosyllables. It would be a good idea to schedule a heart to heart on March 13 when the sun forms a trine to Saturn. The energy of the planets is such that you can talk about feelings without tempers escalating. What you'll discover is that you said or did something around Jan. 25 that deeply wounded him. You'll think that it's no big deal, but it is to him — and that's what matters now.

VIRGO (Aug. 22 – Sept. 21)
Don't sweep your feelings under the rug. It's disingenuous and it only leads to your spouse going on long, drawn out fishing expeditions that don't do either of you any good. You're feeling really needy right now and you're having a hard time asking for support and reassurance. Thankfully the full moon in Virgo on March 16 will help you to express what's going on in a very urgent and personal way. This could turn into a two Kleenex box conversation but you'll both feel so much better as a result of it.

LIBRA (Sept. 22 – Oct. 21)
So why is it that you're expected to be the understanding, supportive partner whenever a man needs to find himself, but you're told to get over yourself when you're going through a rough emotional patch? It's a double standard and it's one that you as a Libra are growing increasingly impatient with. Redefining gender roles (yes, that's what they call it nowadays in government studies) isn't easy but you're lucky because you're in a relationship with someone who truly wants to evolve beyond the caveman level. Be patient, have faith, and he won't disappoint.

SCORPIO (Oct. 22 – Nov. 20)
If you're having trouble asking for advice, think of the trouble your spouse is having with giving it. Scorpio is perhaps the most defensive and inflexible of the zodiac signs. This would be all right if you didn't care what people felt, but you do and that's what makes this exchange so excruciating. Decide if you're going to be receptive or not. If you aren't, then that's OK. Your spouse doesn't need to exhaust himself. But if you do want his advice, then stop putting words in his mouth and correcting the way he says things.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 21 – Dec. 20)
Everyone has a skeleton or two neatly tucked away inside their closet but it looks as if yours will be coming out to play this week. It's to be expected as you grow closer to that special person you care about. It's a good idea to come clean about those past liaisons you're not too proud of. Better that he hear it from you than see them posted as Instagrams on somebody's Facebook. Your honesty will invite him to divulge as well. By the way he's no slouch in the party boy department.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 21 – Jan. 18)
Being there for others comes naturally, but letting others be there for you doesn't. This is the great Capricorn dilemma because you want to bond with people on a deep and emotional level yet nothing makes you more uncomfortable than to talk about your feelings — much less your needs. However, there are ways around this and one of them is to share a personal anecdote or two when doling out advice. This lets people know that you've weathered a similar storm to the rough passage they're navigating. This creates intimacy, camaraderie and even reciprocity.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 19 – Feb. 17)
The universe moves in mysterious ways — especially when it decides to bring two people together. Maybe it's the “coincidences” that it sprinkles like a trail of breadcrumbs that lead from his door to yours or that inexplicable yet euphoric feeling that you have somehow met before when you know full well you haven't. This stirring of the waters is all part of the sun/Saturn trine that will be taking place on March 13. Any relationship that you begin now will surely go the distance thanks to the blessings of Saturn, the planet of time.

PISCES (Feb. 18 – March 19)
You knew the time would come when you would learn about the things that warn you against getting together with him and this will be on Monday when Mercury squares Saturn. This is when you hear about his weird gastrointestinal condition, the tax lien on his house or the child he fathered with the woman who's not his wife. Deal breaker? Hardly. You're a Pisces. You live for this sort of thing. If anything, you were worried that he wasn't going to be complicated enough and now you'll be relieved to know that he is!
