A flirtatious text message, voice mail, or email makes you flush with pleasure. It’s nice to know you’re appreciated. Your admirer has a powerful impact on the way you think. Take this person’s suggestion and sign up for a writing class. You could pen a successful screenplay, novel, or short story. Money from an insurance policy, tax refund, or inheritance allows you to buy some creature comforts. This would be a great time to buy a luxury bed or something sexy to wear.

Making the first move toward a love interest will pay off handsomely. Usually, you like to be the prey, instead of the hunter, but now the object of your affection is so alluring you’ll be inspired to reverse these roles. An exercise routine will give you a sexy glow that is hard to resist. The chance to go back to school could arrive quite suddenly. A last minute cancellation leaves an open space for you. Don’t waste any time taking this opportunity.

It’s virtually impossible to resist you this week. If you see someone who interests you, just gaze deeply into their eyes. You’ll have them under your spell in no time flat.

Making love in unusual places at unorthodox times will be especially exciting. You love the thrill of danger these encounters afford.

Your compassion for a lover or child gives them the courage to change, tell them you have faith in their ability to turn over a new leaf. Offer gentle words of encouragement when they are on the verge of quitting. Your support will help them realise a cherished dream. In return, you’ll be inspired to develop your own projects. It’s a win-win situation. If you’re seeking romance, you could find it at a party. Be ready to accept an invitation at the eleventh hour.

A casual romantic encounter gives you a chance to let off steam.

Explore areas that will allow you to walk to stores and restaurants. Taking on a more prominent position has unexpected rewards. Work is becoming a lot more interesting!

Moving up the ladder of success may be as simple as dressing the part and putting your own spin on traditional looks. You may gravitate toward something that’s a little darker or edgier than the norm. An authority figure will be intrigued by your air of mystery, and may give you a lucrative assignment as an experiment. Be sure to put your best foot forward with this project, as it will attract bigger and better opportunities. Let a lover take you to a place you’ve never been before.

You’re very idealistic when it comes to love. Maybe that’s why it’s so hard for you to make a commitment. It’s difficult to find anyone who lives up to your ideals. Adopting a more balanced attitude will help you find the contentment you seek. A journey of self exploration is probably in order. Examine where you’ve developed your attitudes about love and commitment. The answer may surprise you. A family member could give you an heirloom or some money.

An intense physical relationship makes you feel like you’re living a double life. By day, you’re a respectable citizen. By night, you’re into a whole range of very different pleasures. It’s an exciting dichotomy that helps you withstand the pressures of normal life. If you’re single, you could meet someone special at a hospital, university, or religious institution. In the event you already have a lover, the two of you should sneak away to some quiet retreat.
