Fireworks! Uranus into Aries

Can you feel the rush yet? Today, revolutionary Uranus makes a quantum leap from Pisces into Aries, bringing a cultural shift in its wake. Dreamy, flowy Pisces (a water sign) has been governing our society since 2003 igniting a neo-flapper era of creativity and boundless excess. The wine was flowing, the paparazzi were kings, and  we’ve all had a good time, but we’ve also left quite a mess to clean up in our oceans (cue disgusting footage of oil spill…)

Enter Aries, the spritely, firepowered first sign of the zodiac. Fearless, undaunted by “you can’t do that’s,” Uranus in Aries WILL find the answer, even if it means sending us all back to boot camp to learn the meaning of Social Responsibility. No one’s getting off the hook with being sloppy, lazy, or slow on the draw now. Aries moves at lightning speed, misses not a beat, and will shred your ass like a drill sergeant if you try to get by with a lame excuse.

So, we suggest you start now with cleaning up the spills in your own life. Aries is a fire sign, ruled by warrior planet Mars. Global warming, solar panel technology, ending military dictatorships…these are primed to become the HOT issues over the coming eight years. While Uranus will retrograde back into Pisces this August, it will restation itself in Aries in March 2011 for seven more years.

This summer is like a sneak preview of what’s ahead. It will be intense. It will be exciting. And, if you play for Team Positive Change, you might just find your rightful place in the history books.

May 24 Lovescope: Think Before you Tweak

The moment of truth has arrived. A luminous full moon in Sagittarius puts our feelings in the spotlight, and we just can’t avoid spilling the beans. The barrier between our thoughts and our verbal expression has officially dissolved, and it might get messy if we aren’t careful.  Suppressed emotions don’t always come out with the greatest clarity…and then there’s the fact that tact is not Sagittarius’ strong suit. We recommend some advance editing before you deliver any speeches, slam any doors, or press “Send” on a lengthy “where do you see this relationship heading?” email.

In fact, if you can wait until Version 3.0 of your emotional processing, all the better. First, scrawl out your raw expression in your journal…and, please…don’t leave this lying around where your love interest could find it. Get that therapist, cool-headed friend, or personal guide on the horn, STAT, so you can sift through and distill your core truth. By the end of the week, you’ll be ready for that heart-to-heart. Whether you’re entering, exiting, or improving the state of your relationship, it’s possible to do this all with love–as long as you’ve had help from a great editor.

Housewives Patrol: The Real Stagemothers of New Jersey

Who else is addicted to “The Real Housewives of (insert city)”? There ain’t no shame in our game about it. So, we were tuned in full throttle this Monday to watch the New Jersey season unfold.

Let’s just get the spoiler out of the way right now: Danielle is a Leo.

What other sign would be so hopped up at the thought of fame, living vicariously through her daughter’s walk down the runway?

“I’ll be with her every step of the way,” said Danielle, who couldn’t turn down a chance to pose for a photo taken by the ex of NY Housewife (and Taurus) Kelly Bensimon.

Honestly, we feel for her daughter. The girl is what, 14, and already she’s being steered towards overemphasizing the importance of her looks. She seems like a grounded, smart, girl who has to be her mother’s mother.

Oh Danielle, stop being such a vain Leo,and embrace your more regal qualities. Stop making your daughters sit in as advisors on your crazycalling. Carve out your own niche instead of trying to turn them into cash cows in eight-inch heels.

We seldom get this fired up about reality stars, but we hate to see two bright, beautiful girls forced to grow up so quickly because their mom is so immature. Danielle’s antics this week exemplify the shadow side of the Leo woman. We do hope she can turn it around and stop the drama addiction her sign falls prey to. But, from the previews, it looks like more clashes with Tauruses Teresa and Jacqueline, Pisces Dina, and Virgo Caroline. Hell hath no fury like a Leo woman scorned!

May 17 Lovescope: Eye Candy Appreciation Week

The Sun enters restless, flirtatious Gemini this week giving us a case of wanderlust (wander + lust). Whether single or spoken for, our eyes are sure to be roving. Hey, we’re only human. Looking isn’t the same as cheating, now is it? That’s the $20,000 question this week. It may be time to draw some looser lines in our relationships so that we’re not suppressing our natural urges to appreciate a finely chiseled, Grade A specimen that passes by our line of vision.

For the single souls out there, mastering the art of the hookup could be the most fascinating game. How far is too far? Should you order a la carte or return to the buffet of a “friends with benefits” relationship? Gemini’s energy is spontaneous but can also be a bit shortsighted so it’s important to do some additional planning before, say, hopping in the sack with a key business contact.

For those wondering where best to draw the line, read up on Oxytocin, the bonding hormone that is released when a woman it all hot and bothered. If you’re gonna play the game, you might as well know what the biological rules are.

May 10 Lovescope: PDA Alert

It’s a hands-on kind of week, as a new moon in Taurus amps up our sensuality. The power of good-old-fashioned romance is not to be underestimated. Save the bump n’ grinds for the “Sex in the City 2” premier, and opt for the unbeatable basics: kissing, handholding, slipping perfumed notes into bags and briefcases. We’ll all be craving affection, whether single or spoken for. Pampering ourselves with pedicures, hot stone massages, and hair treatments can keep that hunger from getting too great (and thus making us needy or overly touchy-feely on dates). Mercury, which has been retrograde in Taurus since April 18, turns direct again this week, dissolving stubborn communication blocks in our relationships. It’s been tough to see eye-to-eye for many couples and getting locked in righteous indignation has been an issue. Now, we’re able to vocalize feelings without blaming or drowning out our honey’s diverging opinion. Agreeing to disagree dissolves tension immeasurably.

May 3 Lovescope: No Romance Without Finance

Romance and finance do not make the happiest of bedfellows this week, but their coexistence is unavoidable. With the practical Taurus sun squaring lovestruck Mars in Leo, wining and dining could come with a high price. It’s time to hash things out honestly with our lovers du’jour.  What can you both truly afford at the moment? Who pays for what on dates? It’s been said that the road to hell is paved with good intentions. While we want to spoil and be spoiled, if credit card bills and debt is the price we have to pay, it’s not worth it. Create space in your relationships for economic transparency. People fall on hard times, or have to tighten their belts. Be creative. You can still enjoy luxurious dates on a budget. Creatively thinking up new ways to generate income as a couple can be a truly bonding experience this week.
