What your stars say

Aries March 20 – April 19
Passionate about everything, Aries are either madly in love or bemoaning its absence. Besides, they thrive when coupled, so in spite of being flirts, need a serious relationship. Once romance blossoms, they like doing things their way. But the love they give in return more than compensates for the effort required.

Taurus April 20 – May 20
Taureans have a knack for transforming everyday situations into heart-warming moments. However, they're capable of falling madly in love, then being seized with doubts. Being creatures of habit, they hate change. Once they do, however, they're thrilled. While loving a Taurus requires both a deft psychological approach and persistence, life with them can be magic.
Advice for those in love with Taurus: never give up
Typical Taurus male: George Clooney
Typical Taurus female: Kate Winslet

Gemini May 21 – June 20
Restless Geminis fear commitments, some even maintaining two romances. Even those who've paired up will still be considering alternatives, perhaps fantasising that they're still free. Keep home life and partners intriguing enough, and they'll stay put. Often, they're drawn to their emotional opposite. While this leads to dramas, it keeps life interesting.
Advice for those in love with Gemini: keep your own friends and interests
Typical Gemini male: Jamie Oliver
Typical Gemini female: Kylie Minogue

Cancer June 21 – July 22
For every Cancer oozing charm, there are ten equally warm-hearted ones, languishing, shyly unnoticed. Some obscure their timidity behind a gruff manner, others take ages to get to know. But it's worth the effort. Nobody's one more loyal, and being sensitive themselves, they'll be there, through all of life's ups and downs.

Typical Cancer male: Tom Cruise
Typical Cancer female: Jerry Hall

Leo July 23 – August 22
Leo are hugely romantic. They overwhelm their beloved with attention, affection and gifts – small and large. In return, they expect absolute devotion, and are miffed if they don't get it. But Leo pride keeps them from revealing this. The reward for understanding such quirks is a union as lasting as it is exciting.
Advice for those in love with Leos: just remember they're the centre of the world
Typical Leo male: Antonio Banderas
Typical Leo female: Melanie Griffiths (his wife)

Virgo August 23 – September 22
Do you like being fussed over, your latte made just so, anniversaries remembered? Then Virgo is for you. Behind that practical façade, however, is a sensualist who adores good food and romantic pleasures. The trick is fulfil their demanding qualifications for a partner; still, if romance strikes they'll forget them all.
Advice for those in love with a Virgo: take their advice
Typical Virgo male: Hugh Grant

Libra September 23 – October 22
Libra's search for an ideal partner can become an obsession. But when romance is thriving, all of life is good; with romantic problems, things are grim. While capable of amazing charm, Libra will compromise to keep the peace, then get furious over something minor, confusing those closest (and themselves).

Typical Libra male: Michael Douglas
Typical Libra female: Catherine Zeta-Jones

Scorpio October 23 – November 21
The romantic intensity that's core to Scorpio's charm – and the reason for their reputation as being someone to be handled with care – is obvious. Understanding them and achieving their trust can take ages. It's all about avoiding potentially hurtful surprises. The lover who understands this has the Scorpio's heart forever.

Sagittarius November 22 – December 21
Nobody's more fun than a Sagittarius. But those involved with this least marrying of signs should be aware of their allergy to commitment. Even those who settle need freedom – to broaden their horizons, intellectually, socially and emotionally. Then, romance thrives in passionate rendezvous that involve comparing notes about differing but exciting interests.

Capricorn December 22 – January 19
When other signs are sowing their youthful wild oats, young Capricorns are usually busily working at a job that will give them an edge in achieving their goals. Capricorns may have romances, but committing must wait until they're established. Then, they take being an ideal partner as seriously as everything else.

Aquarius January 20 – February 17
Likeable Aquarians have dozens of admirers. With their cool self-possession, it's often unclear whether that love has been reciprocated. They're happy with their wide circle of friends. Love? That requires sweeping the Aquarius off their feet. But not with romance. Make their life more interesting than they conceived possible and they're yours.
Advice for those in love with an Aquarius: be prepared to share them
Typical male Aquarius: Sven Goren Ericksson
Typical female Aquarius: Jennifer Aniston

Pisces February 18 – March 19
