Aries Love Horoscope for 2008
Aries 2008 love tip: slow down.
Your head counts as much as your heart when it comes to love this year. A Solar Eclipse in your 5th House of Romance on August 1 is the signal that simply following your feelings could lead you astray. A little intellectual distance won't kill the flames of desire -- in fact, it can cool them just enough to ensure that they will endure. Impulsive emotional leaps can give you that wonderful airborne sensation that makes you feel you can fly, but the crash and burn that follows may not be worth the price. The ideal partner shares your beliefs, values and a work style allowing you to build a relationship that supports the community as much as it does the two of you. A wide circle of like-minded friends and colleagues weaves a network of connections that will help you maintain a successful union.

Taurus Love Horoscope for 2008
Taurus 2008 love tip: Simple pleasures.
Your key planet, Venus, reveals the changing dynamics of your heart, yet the consistent message this year is one of security and integrity. If everything feels right, be ready to make that special commitment when loving Venus harmonizes with mature Saturn and opulent Jupiter from January 29 to February 1. A sensible approach to love will rule in the spring, especially when Venus enters your sign on April 30 and continues to stabilize your love life through mid-May. Your attractions become a bit more fragmented in June and July, but settle down again when Venus enters earthy Virgo on August 6. Do whatever you can to create harmony in your relationships in early September, for these efforts will have lasting impact. Excitement and uncertainty in mid-October turn into serious challenges by early November. But love will be easier to manage after November 12, when Venus enters Capricorn, creating the way for another long and lovely cycle of satisfaction.

Gemini Love Horoscope for 2008
Gemini 2008 love tip: Take it to the next level.
This is a transitional year in relationships as Pluto starts to leave your 7th House of Partnerships, which it entered in 1995. The planet of transformation dips its toe into your 8th House of Intimacy from January 25 to March 23, and returns there for good on November 26. This is a long-term process that will deepen your connections to others. Powerful Pluto compels a reexamination of what you're getting from your partner in return for what you give. This raises the stakes in the game of love, making it less playful but potentially much more satisfying. Jupiter, the ruler of your 7th House, in serious Capricorn, underscores the importance of purpose and commitment to shared goals in partnerships. This optimistic planet's easy sextiles with inventive Uranus on March 28, May 21 and November 12 denote positive periods of unexpected changes that can recharge an ongoing union with a fresh perspective or connect you with someone new.

• Cancer Love Horoscope for 2008
• Cancer 2008 love tip: Intensive care.

There is little question about the increased importance of relationships for you, with both Jupiter and Pluto spending time this year in your 7th House of Partnerships. Of course their activity can include a variety of relationship types, including more formal business associations. However, the spotlight is on your 8th House of Intimacy throughout the year from both Neptune, the planet of forgiveness, and Chiron, the planet of healing, along with three out of four of this year's eclipses. Memories of emotional hurt can tempt you to stay safely hidden behind your protective outer shell. The greatest growth will occur by leaning into your fears, overcoming your resistances and healing old wounds, allowing you to interact with others much more intimately.

Leo Love Horoscope for 2008
Leo 2008 love tip: Dreamcatcher.
A lot of hard work and a little bit of magic are the keys to your heart this year. Generous Jupiter, the ruler of your 5th House of Romance, is in strategic Capricorn, where planning produces results. Aim high when it comes to love, since settling for the middle can sink your hopes to the bottom. You have an opportunity to build a ladder to heaven, but must be willing to do the arduous work necessary to make it happen. Jupiter is in your 6th House of Self-Improvement, motivating you to study your emotional patterns and daily habits, and then changing or eliminating whatever gets in the way of your happiness. Two eclipses in your 7th House of Relationships represent a changing attitude or even a change of partner. The Solar Eclipse on February 6 is conjunct Neptune, the planet of ideals and illusion. It's time to wake up to the reality of your present situation, rather than maintaining hopes or fantasies that stop you from addressing issues in a concrete way. Neptune is prominent again during the Lunar Eclipse of August 16, another reminder to temper relationship dreams with a major dose of realism. Still, Neptune joins the Moon's North Node in your 7th House of Partnerships on May 8, which can put you in a magical zone of soul connection that heals your relationship wounds. Forgiveness and faith open the way for unconditional love.

Virgo Love Horoscope for 2008
Virgo 2008 love tip: Surprise package.
You may be normally cautious in matters of love, for serious Saturn rules your 5th House of Romance. There is, however, good news on the horizon as buoyant Jupiter moves through your 5th House this year, promising more laughter and love. Sensual Venus visits your 5th House January 24-February 17, tempting you to be more playful and encouraging you to relax and just be yourself. Your attractions and desires are further intensified by passionate Pluto on January 25. Although you are blessed with the potential of much joy, there may also be unusual surprises in store for you in 2008, especially when unpredictable Uranus sextiles Jupiter on March 28, May 21 and November 12. Stay open to new experiences all year, even if love does not arrive as expected.

Libra Love Horoscope for 2008
Libra 2008 love tip: Nothing but the best.
You're a romantic, Libra, so even if disappointment in a relationship puts you on your guard for a while, it tends to drop again as soon as your heart begins to heal. The two eclipses in your 5th House of Romance this year, though, can signal a change of direction that's likely to impact you for years to come. If you've spent your life trying to make others happy without asking for much in return, it's time to stop. Vulnerable Neptune's proximity to the eclipses suggests that the cost of silence is too high and can leave you feeling disillusioned about love. Instead of always compromising, treat yourself as the precious person you are -- one worthy of all the love you're willing to give and even more. You have a good chance to connect with someone new who inspires you or to bring a higher level of idealism into a current partnership, but what's most important now is how generous this person is to you. Good intentions and promises mean nothing unless they are backed up by sincere action. The secret to a successful love life is to expect the best for yourself and reject anyone who doesn't give it to you.

Scorpio Love Horoscope for 2008
Scorpio 2008 love tip: Calm before the storm.
The cool Virgo Full Moon Eclipse on February 20 activates your love houses, yet its close proximity to serious Saturn throws obstacles in your path to pleasure. Manage these issues wisely and you can solidify a significant relationship. Generous Jupiter, the traditional ruler of your 5th House of Love, brings steady growth to romance as it moves through cautious Capricorn all year. Its trine to somber Saturn can quiet your excitement, which could be a dilemma since you are naturally intense. But it may also be a relief, for you have likely grown weary of romantic dramas due to unstable Uranus's extended journey through your 5th House, which began in 2003. Fulfilling commitments is important, but you may not be able hold back your irrepressible need for more independence as Saturn moves toward its life-changing opposition with Uranus -- exact on November 4.

Sagittarius Love Horoscope for 2008
Sagittarius 2008 love tip: Slow start.
You're typically able to jump into relationships before you even think about the consequences, because impetuous Mars rules your 5th House of Love. But this year begins with Mars retrograde in your 7th House of Partners, suggesting that you will look twice before you leap. In fact, until Mars turns direct on January 31, you could come up with logical reasons not to move forward in love. Mars enters your 8th House of Intimacy on March 6, intensifying your passions or possibly deepening a current relationship. Logical Mercury enters your 5th House of Romance on April 3, followed by playful Venus on April 7, raising the heat, which may also amplify your stress levels -- for your head and your heart may have very different agendas. Relationship activity increases throughout May, but periods of frustration can cool you down around July 10 and from August 12 through August 17 as responsibilities accumulate. Being grounded in your truth strengthens the stability and integrity of a relationship that's meant to last.

Capricorn Love Horoscope for 2008
Capricorn 2008 love tip: Pursuit of happiness.
The personal growth spurred by expansive Jupiter's passage through your sign is bound to alter your relationships this year. Cautious and caring Cancer in your 7th House of Partnerships tends to make you particularly protective of your spouse. Nurturing others can be such a priority that you unconsciously conceal your needs to maintain the status quo. However, the magnifying power of Jupiter in your 1st House of Self is reflected through its opposite, the 7th House. Just as you expect and need more for yourself now, your requirements for romantic and emotional fulfillment are increasing, too. Pressure on a current relationship will force it to grow or, perhaps, begin to unravel. If you bury your feelings in an attempt to avoid complications, the long-term costs of distrust and disappointment may be greater than whatever price you pay right now. A Solar Eclipse in dramatic Leo on August 1 occurs in your 8th House of Intimacy, where it initiates changes in how you connect on the deepest levels. Open your heart to take more risks by expressing your desires. Don't let pride stop you from taking this significant step toward a more satisfying relationship.

Aquarius Love Horoscope for 2008
Aquarius 2008 love tip: Exploring deep waters.
Solemn Saturn's visit to your 8th House of Intimacy and Transformation indicates that relationship work won't be easy, even if it is quite rewarding. On a lighter note, active Mars is in your 5th House of Romance until March 4 and charming Venus is in your sign from February 18 until March 12. These transits can attract love and give you more energy to go after your heart's desire. When Messenger Mercury enters your playful 5th House on May 3 and Venus joins it there on May 25, you receive another boost of heartfelt adrenaline. Mars' visit to your 7th House of Partnerships on May 11-July 2 can really heat up the action. You may, however, experience natural cooling-off periods around July 10 and August 13-16 when Mars, Venus and Mercury each meet up with stern Saturn. Although you may be more comfortable in the realm of intellect, you have many lessons to learn this year by delving into your feelings.

Pisces Love Horoscope for 2008
Pisces 2008 love tip: Take charge.
Authoritative Saturn's transit through your 7th House of Partnerships signals a need to take a stronger stance in relationships. Know what you want from others, be willing to state it and then back it up with action. If you don't follow these critical steps, you won't experience the quality of companionship you deserve. You may not be comfortable playing such a demanding role, yet it's more loving to be honest about what you expect than hiding your feelings or expressing them indirectly. A Lunar Eclipse on February 20 in your 7th House could mark a significant turning point in relationships. A near opposition between aggressive Mars and passionate Pluto can precipitate a showdown -- a point of no return where a situation must change or end. Happily, Pluto forms a supportive trine to the Moon that can direct difficult emotions toward a productive discussion, possibly transforming a painful partnership into a fulfilling one. If you're single, don't be afraid of your feelings. Even if they lead you to a place of hopelessness, don't give up. When you stay open to your heart, the intensity of your emotions can lead to a breakthrough -- removing the barriers blocking you from the intimacy you desire.
