At long last, Mars has ended its seems-like-forever retrograde and is heading in the right direction. That means that a lot of things that have been stalled — your plans to get organized, your motivation to start exercising, that notion you had to seduce the new employee in Accounting — should all have a little more gas in their tanks. ...Continue Reading »

Since this is a dating site, a lot of the work I do here is based on helping people make sense of their love lives. Part of that is practical application: getting the timing right. I often say to clients: "any tarot card read can tell you that 'everything happens for a reason,' but it takes an astrologer to tell you that "nothing happens a damned m...Continue Reading »

The weekend starts with the moon in Scorpio (which isn't always as sexy as it sounds) and ends with Venus in Aries, which is in a hurry to be sexy and (often) in a hurry to leave afterwards. Venus in Aries hasn't got the best of reputations among astrologers: it's considered to be a "debilitated" placement, opposite a sign it rules (Libra). Venus ...Continue Reading »

The general mood this weekend is dictated by the Moon's passage through Leo and Virgo. Virgo is actually a good placement for dating, in some ways: Virgos are generally the most underrated sign as to how oversexed it can be. Leo has more of a reputation that way, but when it comes to dating, that may not be what you need to keep in mind. Leo has a ...Continue Reading »

The Moon is in Taurus and Gemini this weekend, and either of those are relatively easy to work with, romantically; Taurus loves sensuality, and Gemini loves being talked into things. On the other hand, Mars is still retrograde, which can make your ambitions (romantic and otherwise) a little harder to achieve. That, and Mars is still quincunx both S...Continue Reading »

(Hey, why waste time looking at the whole week, when you've just got to sit at work half the day anyway?) Happy Valentine's Day! It may be too late to book reservations for a decent restaurant, but it's never too late too make a date. Or is it? Venus has come off of its conjunction with Neptune, so things may be a little less warm and fuzzy (or de...Continue Reading »

Valentine's Day is almost upon us, and all the hinting and cajoling has probably gone unnoticed (because frankly, you probably don't notice hints). Hints are gamy and annoying and for Pete's sake you just want her to tell you what she wants. Good luck with that. If you have been dating for a short time she wants you to "surprise her" and if you ha...Continue Reading »

Many of you out there have felt a little -- or a lot -- tossed around the last few years, personally, professionally, and romantically... which might explain why you are here now at a dating site. No one has been immune: even those with apparently stable and completely happy lives have felt these forces at play. The one thing that stays constant i...Continue Reading »

(Hey, why waste time looking at the whole week, when you've just got to sit at work half the day anyway?) Venus is in Aquarius, and is now pulling into conjunction with Neptune. This can bring a lot of love, good times, and romantic warmth and fuzziness. Of course, it can also brink drunkenness, delusion, and overspending... which at times can als...Continue Reading »
