Your prime passion clues are a celebrity name and a career you respect. You’ll meet a hot Leo or Sagittarius in a place full of cameras, at a sports celebration or a speed-dating event. Hot dates April 10, October 18 and December 3.

LOVE YOURSELF 2013 is about knowing, and showing, your own value. When Neptune and Mars meet in February, it will be time to say yes to a demanding role that you’re offered. Just believe in yourself. The biggest promises you make should be to you.
FIVE-YEAR FORECAST You will find the perfect mix of fun and fulfilment to keep love fresh – 2015 is your year for passion! In 2016, you switch to a career you really love, and in 2018 a legacy of love or cash links closely to your name.

LEO
July 23 – August 23
Your love life will be a runaway success
LOVERS Venus will visit your chart of duty and devotion to reinforce love promises, despite what’s happened in the past. Couples can seal deals, and a trip in July prompts a sunshine celebration.

LIBRA
September 23 – October 23
This is the year for building a secure future together
LOVERS Love issues will be sorted as Venus starts and ends 2013 at home in the most secure part of your chart.

SAGITTARIUS
November 23 – December 21
Venus ensures love will put you on the rich list
LOVERS Relationships have so much to offer in 2013, as Venus makes a double visit to your values chart. But it means taking the lead by giving the kind of love you hope to get in return. Single?

LOVE YOURSELF There’s a twist mid-year, as Mars helps you stop saying “yes” for the sake of it, and start saying what you really think. Saturn mixes great ideas with business sense and you can get a “yes” from a tough-talking TV show. Just be yourself!
FIVE-YEAR FORECAST You’ll learn to take love to its limits, rather than playing safe. In 2014, you’ll live and love in unusual ways. In 2015 and 2016, you’ll move from the fringes of a group to its heart. And then Jupiter opens up a world of opportunities.
CAPRICORN
December 22 – January 20
Jupiter sees you marrying your dream man
LOVERS Love hopes will come good as Venus sends your powers of attraction into overdrive. You transform cool behaviour from a partner, into the kind of love you need to walk down the aisle. Single Capricorns set a stunning passion pace as Venus links you to a stylish yet sincere Taurus or Virgo. You’ll meet in a bar full or mirrors. Hot dates February 25, June 26 and November 17.
LOVED ONES Jupiter sets up a year of progress, and from January to June you will put in place a more equal system of give and take in a family. When Mars gets in on the scene in midsummer, you make your mark with a new friend, who connects you to a celebrity. Big event Mystery identities are revealed.
LOVE YOURSELF This is the year to let your wild side show and amaze everyone with your mix of organisation and originality. The solar eclipse in mid-May will spark a step into an unknown field that will be so rewarding. This is a start-up year for the real, rebellious you.
FIVE-YEAR FORECAST Your love style is starting to reach emotional maturity. In 2014, you’ll be so deeply in love, and this can set you up to take a special journey in 2015. A creative ambition is set to come into fruition in 2016, which maps out a future of freedom.
AQUARIUS
January 21 – February 18
Venus makes this the year secret love dreams surface
LOVERS Couples are able to reconnect without words, thanks to Venus being deep in your secret dreams chart. By Valentine’s Day you’ll both know what’s next – it’s not what you might think! New love leads you to a mysterious Gemini or Libra, who you’ll meet in a rainstorm or at a magic show. Hot dates February 10, July 22 and August 21.
LOVED ONES The second half of 2013 is for committing to ideas, marking a real turning point. Stepping back from family conflict gives you space to find a solution. But by August you’re right to push for cooperation. Big event A video you make changes everything!
LOVE YOURSELF Whatever you do this year, you do it with style. Your summer shimmers with two full moons, so there’s no one quite like you, nothing quite like your ideas. A Mars/Neptune mix helps you value learning as much as earning.
FIVE-YEAR FORECAST You’ll find fulfilment loving on your own terms, and 2014 promises a celebration in an exotic place. In 2015 you’ll sign significant legal documents, and over the next three years your chart goes global with travel plans or business.
PISCES
February 19 – March 20
Friendships, flirtations and fame make you happy
LOVERS Your year starts with a Mars/Neptune wake-up call, priming you for passion that’s so different, yet suits you well. And Venus focuses on your social chart, so you can get back out there. Couples benefit from a fresh outlook, while Mars makes singletons proactive. Ask out that hot Cancer or Scorpio guy you see at the cinema! Hot dates March 11, July 8 and September 19.
LOVED ONES Neptune gives you a special sixth sense that helps you work out what family and friends really mean and need. With Jupiter in your home zone until June, property plans get the boost they need. Big event Designing your dream home.
LOVE YOURSELF This is not the year for blending into the background – when an opportunity arrives to promote yourself, take it. Your imagination is strong, and this year you balance it with methodical paperwork and meticulous preparation.
FIVE-YEAR FORECAST Past love efforts will be rewarded by personal passion payback. In 2014, you’ll feel ready to make serious decisions. 2015 will see two-way commitment and teamwork. A goal that feels impossible will be reached by 2018.
