Horoscopes: Roses are red
Published in Al-Ahram Weekly on 15 - 02 - 2007


Horoscopes:
Roses are red
By Imhotep
An obsession with your appearance, my dear Rams as people born under the Cardinal Fire sign of Aries (21 Mar-21 Apr) are sometimes called, will take hold of you in the weeks ahead. Does this mean you are on to the gym? Maybe. But if you're after faster results, you might also be thinking of more immediate methods.
Just in time for Valentine, the roses are in riotous bloom -- metaphorically, for you my dear Rams. Red, the deep crimson variety, is the favourite colour of most Rams. Are you stopping to breathe in their heady perfume? It is time to sleep late, indulge in lots of late night conversations and take luxurious bubble baths.
When it comes to romance, it is time to get real and start working on ways to make your dreams align with your everyday life. Get started now.
A turning point for your emotional life is approaching, and the real test will be with your next romantic situation. A familiar dilemma is on the table, but your approach to it will be radically different.
In the next few weeks, you'll receive some mixed signals from an unexpected source -- could they want more than just friendship?
Don't let things stay ambiguous for too long. Get to the bottom of their behaviour as soon as possible. Look into the matter seriously. But, rest assured, the Heavens are in a good mood to help Rams get up close and personal with someone afresh.
If you aren't dating, expect to take one giant step towards closeness with someone. If you're not seeing anyone, my dear Ram, expect that to change soon.
Spring is in the air for Bulls, as people born under the Fixed Earth sign of Taurus (22 Apr-22 May) are sometimes called. Imhotep predicts that this is a time of profuse outpouring of creative energies. Be willing to think and act a little controversially.
Your keen business sense has never been sharper. Closing a deal is a fine art. Keep family and friends out of your business. The deal will be struck with a perfect stranger.
You might not admit it, but you have a fondness for screening calls. That will come in handy now -- because someone you wouldn't exactly be delighted to hear from needs to be ignored. But you wouldn't ignore them this time.
Feel like your divinely intended path is covered with brambles lately? Not a problem. You've got the ultimate source of clarity available -- your own intuition. Ask for help from the universe, and then listen within for your answer. The Stars are on your side, my dear Bulls.
Love may be the last thing on your mind as you struggle to pay the bills and deal with.
Your instincts are saying one thing, my dear Twins, as people born under the Mutable Air sign of Gemini (23 May-22 Jun) are sometimes called, but the facts of the matter are saying another. It is the redoubtable Twins at work. What's considered normal and even desirable by popular standards will seem suddenly laughable and quaint. You are more advanced in your ideas than most people. View them as proof that you've moved on emotionally. It is Valentine, after all.
An urge to live authentically won't be ignored. It is time to put your money where your mouth is and pay attention to what matters. Stick to your guns and listen to your instincts, even if it means leaving a situation.
You feel things deeply which is good -- you understand nuances about other people that fly over your friends' heads, However, this might make you a touch more sensitive than necessary when it comes to dating.
Someone has put you into a fog of confusion, forcing you to deal with romantic puzzles and riddles that aren't very funny at all. Evaluate whether or not their company is worth all the frustration and game-playing.
It sounds silly, but the right person will come along when you least expect it. In the meantime, remember what you need most from a relationship, and keep those standards close to your heart.
Look out next week for Imhotep's reading of Cancer,
Leo
and
Virgo
