Did you see the study that showed fewer male babies are born during bad economic times? Our bodies are more intelligent than we suspect. Often when I have clients puzzled by delays in becoming pregnant, the charts indicate the person has some unsuspected worry preventing pregnancy; e.g., the partner's faithfulness.... GEMINI, 2010's love prospects are likely to be overshadowed by your more ambitious, practical goals. You might be swamped by requests for your time from bosses, parents or other higher-ups. You might be involved in a court case, or immersed in higher education or an international interest, a publishing project or an intellectual process such as writing. All these tend to be the biggest drivers of your career and ambitions now - and all promise great luck. But they aren't romantic pursuits! Romance isn't hiding, though - it's in the very places you're frequenting: offices and workplaces, court rooms, travel paths, media centers and school rooms. Married Geminis have come through 12 to 14 years of emotional challenge; now, at last, the future looks bright. If you're single, February's meeting could make the year ahead sweetly interesting. You're more talkative and outgoing than usual until June, so don't waste this - a friendly conversation you strike up during the first half could bounce back as a date potential later. A relationship might end June/July. August brings a powerfully seductive person. A co-worker romance is serious September to December. LIBRA, you will be so busy working in 2010 - not necessarily by choice - that romance might take a back seat. You're on the verge of one of the most significant relationship periods of your life, 2011 to 2018. This summer, you'll receive a delightful hint of this future momentous love adventure, when a sudden meeting sends electricity through your dreams! It's lucky, friendly, mutually "recognized," but might not develop fully until 2011. (Perhaps because there remains a lingering, unhealthy relationship to extricate yourself from.) Until June, especially late March to June, your social life continually strikes interesting sparks - so get out and about! Your magnetism surges in August, but a job (or an ex partner - not a good one) might return to draw on your time. A sensual but casual bond is available late September through December. This might not be a world-shaker, but it's just right if you want some intimate joy and physical release, while keeping your options open. In January/February 2011, a huge, lucky partnership year will begin; to prepare, get your major life chores cleared away now. Start Nothing: 6:49 p.m.to 11:16 p.m. Mon., 9:39 p.m. Wed. to 2:39 a.m. Thurs., and 0:04 a.m. to 3:57 a.m. Sat. Aries March 21-April 19 Sunday's a day of information or quick action - it starts with great news or movement, particularly around romance, children or a creative project - but it later bumps head-on into an immoveable relationship, someone's "no," or simple reality. Truth is, you face short-term success now to June, but now to October 2012 (including now to June!) you will have to either co-operate with someone who, though slow and careful, holds the aces - or give up the game. This especially applies in love, marriage, divorce, relocation, litigation, negotiation, opportunities, contracts and fame. Taurus April 20-May 20 Lie low, contemplate for the weeks ahead. Home-front friction turns to co-operation, solution Sunday - but the solution dumps a load of duties or chores on you. This mantle of hard work lies on your shoulders until late 2012. You would like to retreat, but instead, slowly and steadily tackle those tasks. You're hard to start, but once you start, you're hard to stop. You might need to spend a little money, both Sunday and Monday. (Buy a car before 11 a.m. Sunday.) Tuesday's filled with barriers, but you're happy, this day and Wednesday. Home's sweet, Friday/Saturday. Gemini May 21-June 20 Your energy and charisma soar Sunday/Monday, as a month of happiness, hopes and wishes, socializing and flirtations starts! But Sunday shows something significant and long-term: you could have a morning of great, swift physical accomplishment (or co-operation with an Aries or Leo) but you run into slowness and deeper stuff this afternoon/eve. This hints that until June, friendship offers plenty of action. But until October 2012, deeper love, creativity, investment "oppose" this, draw you their way. A Libra or Capricorn might capture your heart, demand loyalty. Change your plans/wishes. Cancer June 21-July 22 A month of ambition, career striving, prestige relations and status pressures begins. You'll succeed, your energy is high - BUT your domestic or security situation might say, "no you don't, unless you accommodate me." And your career or status needs a definite change - probably in associations, goals, opportunities. Your mate might awaken you to this. These influences, highlighted Sunday to Thursday, last a long time: your domestic situation until 2012, the need for career/status change until 2024. Make changes Wednesday, when your energy and effectiveness rise. Money's lucky Friday! Leo July 23-Aug.22 The weeks ahead emphasize higher education, legal matters, far travel, philosophy and religion, culture, love and understanding. A more mellow mood will flow over you. Sunday morning emphasizes these matters productively and luckily; but the same interests run into a problem or restriction before nightfall - probably involving communication, computers, or travel: these need more work. Do this work, rather than seeking quick results. An employment change looms. Sunday/Monday bring joy, friends. Lie low, rest midweek. Your energy and luck surge Thursday/Friday! You remain sexy, angry to June. Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22 You face deep changes over the month ahead. Sunday "tolls" these: the morning might point to a great investment or lifestyle change (and if you seek intimacy, you'll probably get a "yes"). But this afternoon/eve says slow down: you might not have the money/income needed, or enough romantic devotion to make the intimacy last. Or you might have enough money/love, but hesitate to apply it. That's fine, go slow, study the big picture: your "well spring" of romance, love, creativity and risk-taking is changing. (Thursday gives hints.) Contemplate Friday. You succeed Saturday! Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22 The month ahead features face-to-face relationships, opportunity and opposition, co-operation and challenge, allies and enemies, agreements and disagreements, negotiations and litigation. Whether it's love or war depends to some degree upon you. Be diplomatic, eager to join or solve differences. Sunday morning offers a great meeting or opportunity for a relationship step. But this eve you impose conditions or wax cautious, due to security or "home" matters. (If the other person suddenly cools to you, it's because you've done this without knowing it.) Wishes succeed Friday - meet! Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21 You start Sunday well, perhaps tackling a fairly important job, but by evening a barrier rises: could be just that you can't get the right instructions or internet connection, or your car won't make it to the repair shop . These barriers, to information and travel, will last to autumn 2012 - though Thursday's aspect has exactly the answer: you have to change things here: systems, computer, travel, communications. Do so. "A stitch in time saves nine." (If you're chasing someone attractive, communication's still the rub.) Wednesday's loving, mellow. Chase career Thursday/Friday - success awaits! Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21 A month of romance, beauty, creativity, speculation, pleasure, joys with children, adventure and risk starts now - and it starts (Sunday) with an exciting, pleasure-inducing morning and a quiet, pleasant but sober evening. You could meet an exciting person who would make a good, reliable and energetic mate. But that later quiet period says you need, for the next two years, to have realistic horizons and dreams. You won't get away with fantasies and wishful thinking! Rearrange finances(or plunge into intimacy, research) Wednesday. Love, far travel, cultural delights possible Friday! Capricorn Dec.22-Jan. 19 Tackle chores Sunday/Monday. The month ahead brings domestic, security, family, nutrition and property issues to the fore. They will be helped by your financial prowess, research, and deep yearning for intimacy or for a new lifestyle - charge ahead with these Thursday/Friday, when luck's high!. These weeks can bring pregnancy, a real estate purchase, home decoration/repairs, etc. Be ready to let someone or something go. A change is imminent. Your progress on domestic fronts (et al) can be restricted by career and ambition's demands; that's okay. Seek agreements Wednesday, not Tuesday. Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb.18 The month ahead is more busy than important. Avoid major investments and life-altering decisions/actions. Focus on variety, curiosity, friendship, siblings, short trips and errands, details, paperwork and communications. Sunday morning is perfect for these things. (And Sunday/Monday are romantic, beauty-filled - talk with a lover, or go for a pleasure trip.) The afternoon/evening, subtly, present you with a choice: be light, quick, a restless chatterbox, or retreat into the sober solitude of thought. Choose the latter. Work, mid-week. Relationships meet success Friday, in business or love! Pisces Feb.19-March 20 Both short-term money (pay check, spending) and long-term (investing, debts, shared finances) are emphasized Sunday. Handle short in the morn, long after noon. (The long "vibrates" to your wishes more nowto2012.) The weeks ahead bring mostly the short-term stuff. You'll succeed, as long as you recognize the need for change (of job? of spending habits?) - especially Thursday. Your tender passions are rebuffed Tuesday, but welcomed Wednesday p.m. Act accordingly. Other than the need for change, Thursday's a success at work, and Friday's even better - ask for a higher position! www.astralreflections.com. Email: timstephens@shaw.ca.
