Valentine's Day Horoscopes

It's your birthday and you're feeling pretty special, right Aquarius?  Things are finally going your way, but be careful!  Mars is retrograde and that means you may have trouble getting that alimony check or baby daddy money.  Forget your financial road bumps and enjoy the day; quit thinking so much and give in to your passionate side (this is hard for you, over-analytical Aquarius!)  Re-energize your current relationship by planning a romantic weekend in a cozy cabin.  If you're single, plan some small road trips.  Get a new haircut, crash a new venue, and voila!  The possibilities are endless...

Pisces  February 19 - March 20

Neptune is your ruling planet, and this month there's a big "homecoming" - it returns to your sign, Pisces, after a 165-year hiatus.  Don't worry, though, this dramatic, mysterious planet will stay with you this time for 14 years.  Neptune rules your creative side, so now's the time to start harnessing your artistic and spiritual energy.  Play your cards right and you could even become one of the next Psychic Friends.

Aries  March 21 - April 19

Things are looking good for you this Valentine's Day, Aries.  Maybe it's because of your irresistible nature, maybe it has something to do with the moon in Sagittarius...I don't know, blame it on Rio, but baby, you should do something special even if you're not attached.

Taurus  April 20 - May 20

Kind Taurus, you are a loyal and stable love partner, but maybe it's time to focus on your next move.  Break out of your comfort zone and do something spontaneous, and there's no time like the present. The new moon of February 21st could possibly be your best day to shine all year (socially and romantically), so hike up your garters, Brylcreem your moustache and parade yourself around like the proud beast you are!

Gemini  May 21 - June 20

The planets support your career this month, Gemini.  Travel and fame seem to be in the cards for you as well, but don't forget to focus on home matters.  Your dual nature should serve you well - bask in all the glory, but don't forget your roots and where you lay your head!  In other words, don't forget us when you're famous.

Cancer  June 21 - July 22

Well, Cancer, there's no good way to put this, so here it goes:  just curl up on the sofa, hunker down under a blanket and wait for next month to come.  Blame it on the previous signs, apparently they're sucking all the energy from the rest of us.

Leo  July 23 - August 22

The arrival of Neptune into Pisces will affect everyone; however, you Leos could be reaping the greatest rewards financially and career-wise for some time to come.  This could be the start of something big, so use your smarts, keep your eye on the prize, and beware the Trojan Horse.

Virgo   August 23 - September 22

Virgo, you know that nagging feeling you get when it seems like you forgot something?  Well, this time it might just be true.  Go back and check to make sure you didn't leave poor Nana under the hair dryer at the salon.

Libra   September 23 - October 22

If you vowed to get into shape New Year's Eve, and it still hasn't happened, all is not lost.  Pick up your resolution, dust it off like that archaic workout contraption you have crammed under your bed, and get to it!  Better yet, try one of Ocracoke's many fitness options:  yoga, turbokick, or the Ocracoke walking/running club!

Scorpio  October 23 - November 21

Saturn is moving into your sign, Scorpio, and this is huge news.  Always wanted to quit everything, move somewhere new and change the world?  Well, you can!  Use your Scorpio passion and flexibility to forge your way. Even if you don't change the world, you can change some minds.

Sagittarius  November 22 - December 21

Wow, Sagittarius, your love life has been more twisted lately than Hyde County politics!  Good news, though, things should be getting easier (for you, at least) in the coming week.  You should still take things slowly and act cautiously; let your suitor come to you - you do have great powers of attraction, after all.  It couldn't hurt to fluff up those feathers, though - wear a new outfit, get a new haircut or a new piercing...whatever you do is sure to attract that someone who enjoys the adventure of life as much as you.

Capricorn   December 22 - January 19

February is a great time to focus on home, Capricorn, and even though you may think it frivolous, it could improve your overall well-being.  Now is the perfect time to brighten your surroundings, throw a party and bring yourself out of these winter doldrums!  You're going to need that inner boost, as this month is also an auspicious time for love, especially for you, Capricorn.  Drop your defenses and give in to romance!
