Horoscopes: Feelings of fulfilment

Horoscopes:
Feelings of fulfilment
By Imhotep
Using food for anything other than physical nourishment is a dangerous habit, my dear Crabs, as people born under the Cardinal Water sign of Cancer (22 Jun-22 Jul) are sometimes called. The cold spell is no excuse to pig it out. Remember to eat in an appropriate manner. Don't be tempted to binge. Watch yourself if you start eating to comfort other, more emotional needs.
Schedule a date with yourself as soon as possible. Read a best-selling book or a heart-warming novel, go for long walks or to the cinema and relax.
Vacations don't have to mean lots of planning and money. Turn off your phone and computer and snuggle up for a few days with your favourite person. But, stay away from snacks and junk food please. Get a good book and sit in the tub -- yes, have a bubble bath with some soothing aromatic oils. Go on, indulge. You need some downtime. Unwind and have fun.
Now that you are living with the "out with the old, in with the new" philosophy, carry it through to other areas of your life. Clean out bedroom, car or gym locker and you will enjoy a surge of freedom and peace.
Consider splurging on a new cook book for inspiration, my dear Lions, as people born under the Fixed Fire sign of Leo (23 Jul-22 Aug) are sometimes called. Feed your soul with some hearty comfort food.
Don't worry unduly if things are getting off to a rocky start -- and so it would seem to you even if you are in a long-term relationship. Sure, problems arise in any partnership. That is all part of building a truly rewarding relationship. The two of you can work things out. There is too much potential not to.
Mind you, March is not a good month to move forward on your latest conquest my dear Lions. Push them to the back-burner for a while, and let them simmer. They will soon be coming to you -- it is only a matter of time.
Indeed, time is of the essence when it comes to a crucial decision. Learn to trust your gut and swing with it rather than second guessing yourself with what might be. Your instincts know best, really.
There is someone you see on a daily basis who you are desperately feeling the urge to tell your deepest feelings to -- regardless of how they'll react. Stopping you is out of the question -- and don't be gentle either.
You can't go around saving everyone all the time, my dear Virgoans, as people born under the Mutable Earth sign of Virgo (23 Aug-22 Sep) are sometimes called. Not only is it a drain on you, but also you are not doing them any favours -- truly. They need to learn to stand on their own two feet and save themselves.
Here you thought you buried that bit of business forever, but something from the past keeps popping up when you least expect it. Be brave and explore this old issue without judgement, and you might finally see through the last of it.
Indeed, it is time to make plans -- big plans that you are comfortable with. It is about time you acknowledge the wonderful person that you actually are. Throw out any old fears or expectations of what you can and can't do. The universe wants you to succeed.
And by the way, if you want to pique the interest of someone special be vague and coy. Don't get too specific about what you have in mind. Let them be the first one to move things forward. It is time to let someone else lead the way. March is good time for you to begin anew.
Spring is in the air. The Heavens are in the mood to help you get close and personal with someone. If you are dating, expect to take one giant step towards closeness with someone. If you are not seeing anyone, expect that to change pretty soon.
