Park Pickups by Zodiac Sign

How to spot and seduce your favorite sign at the village green

Going to a place where people let their hair down is a great way to scope out a future partner, or a temporary playmate. Whether they're playing ball or leaning against a tree, use these astrology tips to spot and seduce your favorite sign.

Aries (March 21 to April 19)
They'll be wearing red and playing ball. If not, you'll recognize them by the extremely bored expression on their face, which is what happens when someone insists that they relax. Relaxing is their least favorite activity, an absolute impossibility for these action-loving creatures. Your best bet is to rescue them. Make an approach, then whisk them away for some fun. Doesn't matter what it is. They'll be tickled that you noticed their sad condition -- and more than willing to thank you.

    Taurus (April 20 to May 20)
    That person sitting in the Sun, smiling and simply enjoying the day? Definitely a Taurus. The more peaceful and contented they are, the less you'll feel you have a right to disturb them by saying, "Hello." In reality, there's nothing they'd like more than quality company … someone in the same frame of mind to share the sunset. So when you make your move, go slowly and be casual and calm. They'll appreciate the time you take to make a good, honest first impression.

    Gemini (May 21 to June 20)
    Spotting a Gemini is easy. Just listen. They'll be chatting away, to everyone and anyone, and laughter will follow them wherever they go. If you'd like to go along, get yourself invited to be part of the entourage. Once that's done, their natural curiosity will demand an introduction. That's when you'll need to stop listening and start impressing them. Dig into your repertoire, and pull out every last witty comment, story or anecdote that's ever served you well -- then do it better than you've ever done it before.

    Cancer (June 21 to July 22)
    Look for a red and white checkered tablecloth, matching napkins and the person who's too busy serving everyone to have one bite of food. If there are kids in the vicinity, check their left hand for a ring. If you don't see one, watch and smile -- and prepare to do that for quite some time. They'll be too busy taking care of things to notice anyone or anything, but once they take a break and see you, they'll smile back. Your mission then will be to somehow lure them away, just for a moment. If the kids have cookies on sale, buy them all -- then give them back. They'll be impressed and amused. That's Stage One.

    Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22)
    This is the easiest sign of all to spot. They make sure of it. Their hair will be extremely well taken care of, and they'll probably be wearing lots of gold. You'll definitely have to work for their attention. Start by getting involved in the game, but only if you know you can do it very, very well. Earning their applause won't be easy, but it's a guaranteed way to get them interested. You'll have plenty of competition, but here's a tip: let them know that you understand that they're royalty and that you'll treat them that way for as long as you're together.

    Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)
    They're tough to spot because they work very hard at not being noticed. If you're after a Virgo, however, a park is the perfect place to look. They're earth signs and they love to be outdoors. Cerebral Mercury is their ruling planet, so they'll likely be reading, doing a crossword or playing cards with a friend. Your mission is to stroll by them as many times as it takes, or to be bold -- politely bold -- and say hello. Ask what they're reading, if they need help with 27 across or if they're winning the game. Remember, though, the operative word is polite -- be very polite.
