What’s your sign?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
I think it’s funny that, growing up in the ’80s, I used to see people in the movies all the time asking people “What’s your sign?” as a pickup line. If someone asked me that now, I would probably laugh, uncontrollably, until I started tearing up.
But just for fun, I looked up my “Love & Relationships” monthly horoscope on Yahoo, and this is what it said:
So everything isn’t exactly the way you’d like it, romance-wise, by the 1st of the month. Instead of thrills, chills and excitement, it’s get up, go to work, deal with coworkers, come home, eat, watch TV and go to bed. Well, buck up! Just because the first two days of the month are a little bit slow doesn’t mean things won’t pick up soon! By the 3rd and 4th, you’re busier — and no longer bored. This sets the stage for a bit of luck — and a lot of potential romance — on the 8th, when you meet a very intriguing new someone. By the 13th, even if the romance part of this new friendship is still getting off the ground, you get a few well-timed reminders that your friends think you’re the cat’s pajamas. On the 16th, you want to be alone. By the 17th and 18th, you’re a walking romance magnet: Your confidence alone is enough to bring the potential partners to you, and when paired with your good looks, you’re irresistible! On the 23rd, you’re ready to talk about your romantic feelings with someone, while the 26th and 27th are filled with kisses. On the 30th, wrap up the month with some more philosophizing — it’s the best way to spend the time between smooches.
Granted, horoscopes are always vague so that you can tailor them to fit your own life. But it was so funny how this one seemed to fit this month!
Have you ever let a horoscope prompt you to be braver, relationally, than you normally are? Maybe you asked someone out or walked up to someone you wouldn’t normally have because of shyness.
Today is your chance to create your own destiny! If you could write your own relationship/dating horoscope for the next month, what would it say? You can give us the full rundown, as seen above, or you can just give us the highlights. And be honest! What needs to happen next month in your dating life?
