WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST: Energy is high, dance clubs are filled, and stadiums are packed – and they’re all terrific spots to meet singles as the moon winds up its course through Aries. Friday night gives a shot of courage to the normally mild-mannered and increases the chances you’ll wake up Saturday saying, "Was that really me last night?" Sexy energy zings about ,and nobody is immune from its tempestuous call. Staying home is futile for singles, so put on your high-heels or sneakers and go out – if only to satisfy your curiosity. On Saturday, the Taurus vibes take over, and a more mellow, sensual experience is the craving. Dates want the best, so expensive dinners and wine won’t go unappreciated. Romance takes its sweet time to unfold, but be patient, it’s worth the incredible tension you live through on the road to desire. Sunday morning gets a bit restless.

COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: Pisces and Aquarius learn a great deal from each other while they’re together, and no one can say it won’t work because these two will always surprise you. They both go the extra mile for a friend; they both need lots of rest and a cause that’s larger than themselves to believe in. If they share the cause, the love may follow.
