Your Love & Romance Forecast begins on the following page. If the time period for an interpretation is, for example, given as "Apr 1, 1998 (Feb 15, 1998 to May 15, 1998)", then it starts in mid-February, reaches greatest intensity around April 1, and ends in mid-May. The first date listed is the time when the influence has reached maximum strength; we can call this date the "peak date". The influence starts on the beginning date, gradually increases in strength until the peak date is reached, and then it gradually fades out until the ending date is reached.

You may also notice that the same interpretation shows up periodically during the year; this is not unusual. To eliminate redundant interpretations, you may be informed that the astrological influence also occurred earlier and that you should refer back to the previous occurrence of this interpretation.

At the top right margin after the dates, the abbreviated names of the aspects and the two factors involved are given. For example, "Jup Sqr Sat" means that during the given dates "transiting Jupiter" is squaring your "natal Saturn". That is to say, the first factor that appears is always the transiting planet (present position of the planet in the zodiac), while the second component of the pair is "natal", or the position it was in the zodiac at your birth.

At the beginning of each interpretation the complete name of the aspect and the two factors involved are given in capitalized letters. As before, the first planet is in "transit" while the second is "natal".

Below it, the INTENSITY of the aspect is indicated in a scale from 1 to 10. That is to say, an aspect with an influence of 1 is very weak and may not even be noticed. On the other hand, an influence of 10 is very powerful. We can consider aspects with an intensity of 8, 9 or 10 VERY STRONG, 6 or 7 STRONG, 4 or 5 AVERAGE, DECREASING at 2 or 3 and VERY WEAK at 0 or 1.

This report interprets the aspects between the transiting planets and the following three natal planets: Moon, Venus and Pluto.

INTENSITY: 1

A disharmonious aspect of transiting Sun to Moon doesn't have too much strength, but can be used to amend certain imbalances in your family relationships. Fundamentally, you tend to go to opposite extremes and find it hard to stay on the middle ground. In the first place, at given times you are inclined to be too individualistic, arrogant and self-sufficient in your family relationships. You tend to impose your own points of view and do it in a certain shaky, capricious way according to your emotional state at the moment in question. In other cases you will be inclined to the opposite extreme, that is to say, to be attached and to depend too much on what could be called the "family warmth". In this case you prefer to depend on the family unit before venturing out and solving your own problems.

Briefly, it is necessary to learn how to achieve the right balance concerning your family relationships and emotional affections, neither trying to be the center of the family, nor intending that your loved ones solve your problems for you. This certainly is a difficult road that requires personal security, self-discipline and self-understanding. It is necessary to give in order to receive, which is a simple rule and very practical in regard to family relationships. That is to say, if you are stronger, you will be able to contribute more to your family, which also will be strengthened and at the same time will have more ability to protect you. In other words, the more the family unit is strengthened, the more your integration will be strengthened. Increase your personal security, project that personal security to your family, and you will find that your family relationships improve notably. In that way you are going to be admired, understood and taken into account thanks to your personal securities.

SUN OPPOSITION VENUS

INTENSITY: 1

A disharmonious aspect of transiting Sun to Venus brings an increase in your sensuous vital energy, which can incline you to certain excesses. For example, you now could feel a great desire for amusement and expansion, and may even want to escape from your daily grind going to a dance with your mate, dining out, going to a club, or preparing an exceptional weekend. Obviously, there is nothing wrong with it in general, unless these kind of activities are carried to excess. It isn't so much the fact of wanting to live well, but rather to control yourself and stay within your means. If you are not careful, the following weeks could be a narrow squeeze of money, since you over spent on details, gifts or outings to such a degree that you actually are left without anything in the budget for the rest of the month. Don't give so much importance to the size or quantity of your entertainments, since a simple gift in a given moment can have great sentimental value.

Avoid an egocentric, superior and arrogant attitude toward your mate. Perhaps now you are very proud of something you have obtained on a social or professional level, or even are proud of your own companion, but you should never have a capricious or egocentric attitude. Learn to control your abundant energy and you will find that with simplicity, sincerity and nobility big improvements are brought about in your partnership. Learn to speak but also listen, give advice and also think about the advice given to you, in fact, learn to find the right balance between you and your loved one. Neither of you should impose your points of view on the other, but share the decisions and enjoy the responsibilities that both of you have every day. Don't ever think that you are going faster than your companion, since it is necessary that both of you go hand in hand, jointly experiencing the new encounters that are opened to you each day.

At this time you may also be especially proud of your mate and may want to show him/her off socially so that everyone can see that you are the "perfect couple". Although this is not negative in general, it isn't bad either to be unnoticed from time to time and to intermingle with others without creating so much attention. It may boost your ego when others remark about you, but it also has it's disadvantages since, whether you like it or not, there always will be a certain amount of criticism.

At this time your sexuality and total vital energy will be revitalized and must be released through a creative exchange. You will be fully aware of the effect of love and of each instant in the interrelationship with your partner. Moments like this cannot be repeated and, without a doubt, constitute a great opportunity to develop and improve your own psychological qualities. Sexuality is not only a release of energy, but to understand yourself through exchange with the other. The act of love is an event of self-understanding and personal self-realization.

This is a good time to openly express your feelings so that you will be totally sincere with yourself and with your loved one. Sharing is being open to new realities, and opening up is necessary for a confident and respectful environment. Putting these qualities into practice will prove that boredom and monotony do not exist in real love. There always is something new to experience, to communicate and to put into practice. Sexuality should not wear out your energy, but release, expand, revitalize and recover your personal strength. This is a good way of finding out if the relationship works correctly, since "nothing is created, nothing is destroyed and all is transformed". Thus, the integral act of love must result in the revitalization of both partners on the physical as well as the emotional and mental levels. As a rule, when someone is tired, it is because you are not achieving an energy circuit adapted to the environment. On the other hand, when someone is revitalized, it is because you readily tune into others, and in this case, your partner.

Talk about your improvements since you were together, comment on the psychological deficiencies you have surpassed, and bring to light those that still need a bit of polishing. This sincere exchange produces great results and deepens your level of communication.

VENUS SEXTILE PLUTO

This astrological aspect lasts only a few days, but on occasion it's effect can be felt in a palpable way. Your sensuality and your ability to love are increased now, making you more intense with greater depth and creative energy. It is a personal cycle that can serve you to intensively fuse with your mate.

If you currently are not involved with anyone, use this period to become aware of your creative potential and get to known yourself better. Your personal security will attract the opposite sex, and there is a possibility of someone becoming interested in you. In this case, try to be selective at the time of choosing a companion, since it is preferable to be alone rather than making the wrong choice. Remember that nobody is pushing you to get a mate quickly. Without a doubt, it can be said that quality is worth more than quantity. If you pass this short and intensive cycle in solitary, become fully aware of yourself as an independent and creative individual.

A harmonious aspect of Venus to Pluto is a small step toward ascending the height of sexual alchemy, which is based on the progressive increase of sexual energy as well as control over it. Uncontrolled sexuality is precisely the opposite of happiness and fulfillment in the relationship of a couple. On the other hand, high and conscious sexuality inclines to personal self-realization and complete satisfaction in the relationship.

It is a good time to live, study and practice total integration in your affectionate relationship, where the body, the psyche and the mind collaborate toward the same end: fusion, and as a result evolution. Enjoy yourself intensely and become aware of each instant, since true love is bound to the full awareness of each act, each gesture, each feeling and each thought.

During this short time of the disharmonious aspect of transiting Venus to Venus your feelings will be intense, but certainly a bit superfluous. It is important to care about forms but, obviously, love cannot be sustained only by extraneous details, more or less fancy gestures, gifts or painstaking care of the personal image. We have to understand, be connected and establish firm bridges between two individuals that by nature are different.

If you are in a period of courtship, don't think that by simply maintaining an apparently harmonious, fun and happy keynote during this phase guarantees that the future relationship will endure in time. There has to be a fundamental understanding between you, and not only the illusion of having a good time, going dancing or enjoying yourselves with friends.

Equally, if you are in a stable relationship such as marriage, you will be enthused to enjoy yourself, to relax, squander your energy and indulge in intensive leisure, all of which could lead to a certain vacuum sensation upon recapturing your daily responsibilities. You have to find a way to use your spare time for the most creative leisure, for example culture, sports, deep communication with your mate or, simply, seeking the most remote intimacy from the mundane noise.

Obviously, the dynamics of a holiday or spree could be a release of energy after a phase of stress. However, this is not the standard ideal for channeling your free time. Procure to plan the details for some activities with your mate for the weekend or your vacation.

As a rule, it is advisable to moderate your sensuous manifestations and to remember that in love it is not advantageous "to be impatient and expect things to happen" in two or three days. If you are especially euphoric or want things to go well, temper your spirits and extend the moments, and you will find that even when everything is going along well one must have serenity. It is necessary to be relaxed in order to enjoy things and people. If there is too much excitement, the instants and experiences rendered are volatile, passing and not satisfying.

During the days of this aspect your psychological state probably will fluctuate from the height of superficial happiness to extreme melancholia and a sense of isolation. In reality, there are two kinds of vibrations that prevent you from maintaining an even course, but are continually tilting from one extreme to the other. It is advisable to take some time for personal reflection, thinking about your more recent affectionate or sentimental experiences, before reacting or acting without previous contemplation. Now is the time to look deeper into your real psyche, avoiding at all cost to express your feelings outwardly without having sufficiently worked out what comes from within.

If you are sensitive or affected by the reaction of a relative, a friend, a loved one or even your mate, above all control your imagination, otherwise you run the risk of making a mountain out of a mole hill. Don't evade the situations or people responsible for your sensitivity, but simply reflect on the real meaning of that experience and how to respond to it. Either way, after calming yourself and having reflected you think that your loved one has made a mistake, it is advisable to outline everything smoothly and objectively without getting too personal.

You won't go from a feeling of joy to melancholia very easily, since you are not living in a fairy tale nor in a valley of tears. Find a balance between your family responsibilities and your need for entertainment, amuse yourself and relax a while. If you are involved in a love relationship now, see to it that it will be as harmonious as possible with your family to avoid small irritations or sensitivities in the future.
