WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST:
You’ll see plenty of surprises, and they include apologies from those who blew it last week. Stubborn resistance will melt away, and everyone will just want to relax and have a good time. We must all continue to be extra careful in playing sports and traveling for recreation. Events will draw crowed because everybody feels like watching other people, and you’re going to have a great time. Saturday is chore day, and you might as well pitch in and help because there’s no getting out of it. Family gathering are the ticket, and if the weather permits, outdoor celebrations and picnics will fill parks across the country. Weekend travelers will overflow the highways that lead to ski resorts, lakes and wherever there’s fun to be had. On Sunday, a collective enthusiasm for worship is abundant.

COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND:
Pisces and Capricorn are the two signs most likely to fall head-over-hells in love this weekend. The Pisces, male or female, is desperately seeking a "connection" that will last forever. The Capricorn, being somewhat more elusive, succumbs to Pisces’ honesty and passion. One of them may already be in a committed relationships, but that will only delay, not deter, this new relationship.
