Front and Center

The Sun is shining high in your chart at the beginning of the month, which tends to put you in the public eye. Although this earns you attention, you might be so overloaded with responsibilities that little time is left for play. Still, if you do your job with efficiency and style, you may connect with someone who appreciates your abilities. In fact, being excited about a major project can make you more attractive now. This isn't a time when pursuing relationship directly is likely to be effective. The irony is that the less you seem to need others, the more they want to be with you. Just don't get bogged down in a situation where you're stuck being a caretaker for your partner.

You don't want to play mommy or daddy with your lover since it's a sure way to deaden a relationship over time. Yes, you're in a good position to take the lead with assertive Mars in your sign now, but changing roles is what keeps things lively. You can be impatient with someone who won't take a chance on love. In spite of your capacity to understand the vulnerabilities of others, you will not be turned on by weakness now. Powerful patterns during the New Moon on April 5 can produce conflict if the other person isn't doing his or her part to keep romance alive. Still, it may be better to battle and bring things out in the open than to brood in silent disappointment.
