ARIES
LOVE LESSONS A PLENTY AHEAD!
By the end of this year, Saturn, the planet who always loves to teach us a lesson or three hundred will be back in your Love Zone for the first time in several decades. For some this will mean that a bad relationship will finally kick the bucket. For others, love will bring lessons which might be hard at the time but could actually lead to life-long romantic security. The main thing is not to pressure your partner or buckle under their pressure. Single? February looks good for meeting someone. March sees an ex back on the scene – don’t go back unless you’re sure!
HOT DATES: February 17 – potentially very romantic. June 20 – Ditto. A great date night.

TAURUS
IF YOU WANT LOVE, MAKE IT A PRIORITY
Your career’s going to take off in the first half of 2009, so you might be less interested in romance than usual. Plus, until October, you have grumpy Saturn in your Romance Zone, so don’t be surprised if you feel like relationships are too much like hard work! If you’re nodding your head thinking “Yep…” don’t expect that feeling to go away anytime before November when the brakes come off. Having said that, June brings romantic Venus into your sign, so perhaps you’ll squeeze some loving into your hectic schedule? Enjoy! The bottom line; love for Taureans in 2009 is what you make it. Capice?
HOT DATES: June 20 – vavavoom! October 23 – massive changes possible in your relationships around now. November 8 – potentially très romantique.

GEMINI
YOUR LOVE LIFE STARTS TO RESEMBLE ‘NORMAL’
Now that Pluto has left your Love Zone (forever), your relationships are going to be off-the-scale easier to handle. Things that made you jealous or sent you into a rage beforehand will pass almost unnoticed. So 2009 is a new start for you romantically. Do be aware that Mercury goes backwards in your sign from May 7 to 20, so your Whole Life (including your love life) could go a little mental. The best way to cope is to keep smiling through the chaos. Lose your temper and you lose the game! July 5 to August 1 sees Venus in your sign - very promising for romance.
HOT DATES: June 21 – don’t panic if your love life feels a bit frosty today. December 6 – a super power day for you.

CANCER
LOVE CHANGES EVERYTHING…
The planet of power and passion, Pluto, has taken up residence in your Love Zone so entire romantic life is due for transformation. Be warned! Get involved with a bully this year, and it’ll h-u-r-t. So steer clear of anyone your friends don’t like, because they usually see more clearly than we do. However, if you’re with someone wonderful (or you meet someone fitting that description) Pluto plus the Cancer eclipses mean 2009 could be the year you get to understand the amazing and transformational power of love. PS Your sex drive will be up … but flings lose their appeal. You want depth.
HOT DATES: July 7 – a Love Zone eclipse makes things exciting. August 1 – high romance potential. December 31 – the year ends with a bang!

LEO
SPOILT FOR CHOICE
Many Leos are still in recovery from the past few years. If that includes you, rejoice and be glad because your fortunes are finally changing, and you should find it easier to leave your cares behind for good. For one thing, there are eclipses in your sign and Love Zone so 2009 is THE year to make massive changes in your love life. Stale relationships can be binned, cosy romances can get hotter, hot relationships can turn into marriage. And so on. Plus Jupiter in your Love Zone for the first time in 12 years means single Leos will have more choices than they’ve had in eons.
HOT DATES: December 20 – positively dreamy for romantic Leos.

VIRGO
THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL
Saturn – the least romantic planet of them all – has been in your sign since 2006 and isn’t going anywhere until … October 29. And then? He’s gone for another 30 years! So don’t expect January to October to be all hearts and flowers. After that? Things improve. Truly. As you’ve probably worked out, Saturn is less into romance and more into making us face facts about the state of our relationships (and about making us work like dogs). However, many single Virgos at least would agree, after the oddballs you’ve been attracting lately, a little bit of level-headed Saturn might not be such a bad thing.
HOT DATES: March 28 – hot romance potential. December 6 – plenty of passion potential.

LIBRA
GIRD YOUR LOINS, HERE COMES SATURN!
As the year unfolds, you’re going to start reading ad infinitum about how serious, grim Saturn, is headed for your sign. This won’t happen until October 29 but is worth preparing yourself for. Basically, if you’re in a rubbish romance, bin it now before Saturn does the job for you in the second half of this year, which would make it a far more painful process. And if you’re in love and all is well? Lucky you! Just remember Saturn will test your relationship but not further than you can stand. There are big love lessons ahead. And potential for life-long commitment. (Serious Saturn loves commitment.)
HOT DATES: April 21 – hot date night. March 6 – don’t panic if your love life stalls for a bit. October 14 – romances heat up as Venus arrives in Libra.

SCORPIO
MAKE YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE
You are now in the very strange position of being able to make your dreams come true. Why is this strange? Because it’s risky! What you deep, deep DEEP down believe is going to happen for you is what’s almost certainly going to unfold, including re your love life. So if you deep, deep, DEEP down think you’re unlovable and destined to be single forever, guess what? And if you think you’re the most gorgeous thing since sliced bread and a great catch in anyone’s eye. You guessed it. Don’t overthink your love life this year. And avoid coming across as weird/obsessive, because that’s so not sexy.
HOT DATES: May 7 – 31 – shrug off love life confusion. August 1 – avoid power struggles. November 8 – your love life should improve bigtime now.

SAGITTARIUS
A WHOLE NEW WORLD
You can transform your whole life – including your love life – in 2009 if you truly believe in yourself. And if you already have fabulous self-esteem, then in theory 2009 will only get better … and better. March and April bring you a chance to re-evaluate your romantic situation as Venus goes backwards in your Romance Zone. If you feel you’re putting more in than you’re getting out, that’s the time to speak up. Meanwhile, May to August is great for happy couples and singles looking for love. Overall, your love life can improve dramatically this year as you’ll be far more chilled about life.
HOT DATES: March 11 – brings a second chance in love. May 27 – a day to dream BIG romantic dreams. December 20 – sweetly romantic.

CAPRICORN
HERRRRRRE’S PLUTO…
A lot of Capricorns says that 2008 was their worst year ever. If you’re one of them, look back and see if and if (a) you tried to control someone, (b) if you refused to get rid of something (or someone!) that was toxic, and/or (c) if you didn’t act “for the good of all or not at all”. Ie: nicely. Why? Because now can be the most amazing and revolutionary time of your life, as long as you avoid doing (a), (b) or (c) in 2009. PS Be aware that January could be a bit mad as Mercury reverse in your sign.
HOT DATES: July 21 – don’t panic if love goes frosty around today. December 3 – romantic.

AQUARIUS
LET THE MADNESS CONTINUE…!
Many Aquarians are still recovering from the 2008 madness - the eclipses in your sign sent many of you flying sideways and wondering what the heck you were supposed to be doing with your love life (and the rest of it). The answer is to live and let live, to take the lessons love has taught you, and move on from what you know is no longer a Good Thing. Aquarians who’ve cleared the decks could see fabulous romantic developments now - you have eclipses and Lucky Jupiter in your sign. (Hint: Don’t panic if the year doesn’t start off totally ideally. It can improve!)
HOT DATES: August 6 - life-changing eclipse in your sign. Yep. It’s a potentially life-changing year!

PISCES
KEEP ON KEEPING ON – YOU’RE NEARLY THERE!
There’s no doubt that the past 12 months have tested many a Pisceans’ love, and their ability to stay the partnership course. However, if your romance is still intact, you’re nearing final hurdle. Congratulations! For some, there are still a few more demands to be made. Use 2009 to work harder than ever on your most important one-to-one relationships, and your relationship skills. Pisceans currently stand to learn SO much about themselves (good and bad) via their relationships. If you’re splitting from someone now? It’s almost certainly for the best. And if you’re getting oh-so-serious? Guess what? It could be for keeps.
HOT DATES: June 21 – romantic promises made now should stick. October 29 –Saturn leaves your Love Zone.
