Horoscopes: Tied in knots

Horoscopes:
Tied in knots
By Imhotep
Big changes take time, my dear Rams as people born under the Cardinal Fire sign of Aries (21 Mar-21 Apr) are sometimes called, so don't throw the towel if you are not seeing as much of a revolution in the realm of romance as you would like. Lasting developments are in progress, so hang in there.
Just in the nick of time, someone will give you the opportunity to invest all that energy you're feeling in an entirely different type of activity than what you were using it for. So smile, laugh and be pleasant. No more bickering and bad-mouthing.
Go easy on anyone who innocently suggests that you make contact with an old flame now -- or even just an old friend you're not in the mood to speak with. It is time to focus on those around you.
If you have got some repairs to do, or have some decoration accomplished by a true professional, this would definitely be a great time to take care of it. If need be, take someone along who's wiser in this department than yourself.
On the other hand, don't offer unsolicited advice. It's tempting, Imhotep knows, to get involved in your friend's latest romance drama. But, my dear Rams, you should mind your own business. Your experience are different, and that difference doesn't give you the insight you think it does. Keep your thoughts to yourself, please.
Take time to appreciate all the beauty that surrounds you my dear Bulls, as people born under the Fixed Earth sign of Taurus (22 Apr-22 May) are sometimes called. Remind yourself of the essential connection between love and life, and you'll see how much inner and outer wealth truly correspond.
It is great that you are so motivated to resolve all your romantic issues at once, but is that really possible? Actually, is it even desirable? Instead, find someone who laughs at your jokes and makes you laugh, too.
And, my dear Bulls, how can you ever get the results you want from a romance if you wait for other people to make the first move, or expect them to do all the work? Take some responsibility for yourself.
Reconsider your old positions when it comes to love. Before you make a choice put a hold on any decisions and examine what's been going on and where you want to go. Being honest when it comes to romance is brave. If you are involved in a situation that you know is holding you back from meeting someone who belongs in your life, do the courageous thing and break it off.
And if you are already single, my dear Bulls, remember that each time you begin seeing someone you create something new. So while you're single, cultivate ideas on what you'd like your next relationship to be like. That way, you'd be ready when it is time.
The fog you've been in, my dear Twins, as people born under the Mutable Air sign of Gemini (23 May-22 Jun) are sometimes called, is suddenly lifting, revealing in its wake a romantic landscape where you thought you were just randomly stumbling through.
Engage with the love of your life even more now by exercising your powers of communication. Indeed, you need not even reach out for people -- they'll come to you. Without even trying, you will be the entertaining member of any group in the weeks ahead. People will be intrigued by you, my dear Twins, so take advantage of the attention and cultivate some key relationships you've been thinking about.
Indeed, you put the fun back into funny towards the middle of March when your wit takes centre stage. Step up and say what is on your mind as only you can. There are few people in the audience who are quite interested in what you have to say.
There is some kind of payoff for staying in this situation, otherwise you wouldn't be so reluctant to move away from it. Be honest with yourself about where you are and why. That small mental shift could put real change in motion.
