Here are what the stars have predicted for your love life this week (May 8-14).
What is my love horoscope?
Aries
Aries, even if you have no plans to put down passion roots, a switch of mindset as Venus moves to your home and family zone, can happen this week.
And a settled life, with one or more special people, shoots to your top priority spot.
Love intrigue goes live on Saturday afternoon.
Learning to love the home you have, instead of always yearning after a dream version of the perfect house, can be a breakthrough for you.

Because in little, but meaningful ways, you can bring your personality to bear in the colours and styles you choose – that cost very little.
You could also thrive renting rooms out at home, or helping other people turn moving dreams into reality.
Consider trying out as a family negotiator or go-between this month -- you’d be fabulous.
Leo
Leo, Pluto makes you bold with partners and friends, but you must be prepared to follow through this week.

Saturday re-runs a missed dating chance.
A certain level of sacrifice may be necessary to keep a love bond moving in the right direction – and if both sides are happy to go with this, both can emerge more fulfilled.
But issues can arise if giving up friends, family, time, or anything else, for passion, is just a one-way process.
Weigh up every aspect of your love life today and you can work out exactly what you could, and should, do next.
Gemini
Gemini, keep Wednesday and Friday free for love link-ups.
What love planet Venus tells you for the next few weeks is, it’s better to play to win than play safe this week.
So if you know you have been hedging your emotional bets, and maybe juggling more than one relationship at the same time, now you find it simpler to make a clear choice, and move on.
A key role in money negotiations, either to support other people’s ideas, or help with talking about them to panels of judges or experts, can also be a big, surprise part of your future.
Cancer
Cancer, the passion planet Venus sashays into your own sign and switches up your sex appeal this week.
instead of kidding yourself one moment more, as Venus enters your zone of personal happiness, you need to admit the truth about what you want from love – and how you think you might get it.
A time of longing, for a person, or maybe an item, can end over the next few weeks, and instead you can develop a stronger sense of first working out what you need, then going in search of it, rather than waiting for it randomly to arrive.
Virgo
Virgo, a romance moon, paired with thoughtful Neptune, brings forgiveness back to the table, so ditch any stubborn changes of direction.
Learning to love the home you have, instead of always yearning after a dream version of the perfect house, can be a breakthrough for you.
Because in little, but meaningful ways, you can bring your personality to bear in the colours and styles you choose – that cost very little.
You could also thrive renting rooms out at home, or helping other people turn moving dreams into reality.
Libra
Libra, the closer you get to someone special, the more your heart may seek to step away – do fight this.
This week the simplest way to bring more passion and excitement into your life is to stop aiming low and start aiming high.
Yes, this means really thinking about what your cash and couples goals are, and how you intend to chase them.
Because the signs are strong that you have been holding yourself back in so many ways.
Now you can set yourself free, and start living as the best possible version of yourself.
Scorpio
Scorpio, between the sheets, you are the zodiac sex star this week, and this tempts you towards an irresistible fellow Scorpio.
Make your emotional and practical life the best version it can be, by lifting any limits you know you have set on what you will learn, and where you will go.
When you really examine how you feel about certain people, places and subjects, you can see how the past is influencing the present, and scuppering the future.
And by giving everything and everyone more of an equal chance, you can open so many more positive doors.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius, if you’re single, moving away from “types” and towards a more open approach, can help you notice a tall Leo this week.
The key take-away for you from Venus’ transit through your intimacy zone, is that instead of keeping everything light and undemanding, this may be your moment to go deeper, reveal more – and make some unforgettable love and life connections.
List of 12 star signs
The traditional dates used by Mystic Meg for each sign are below.
- Capricorn: December 22 – January 20
- Aquarius: January 21 – February 18
- Pisces: February 19 - March 20
- Aries: March 21 - April 20
- Taurus: April 21 – May 21
- Gemini: May 22 – June 21
- Cancer: June 22 – July 22
- Leo: July 23 – August 23
- Virgo: August 24 – September 22
- Libra: September 23 – October 23
- Scorpio: October 24 – November 22
- Sagittarius: November 23 – December 21
It’s not easy for you to let your happy-go-lucky Sagittarius self go, and maybe admit you need more romance or reassurance, but this can be such a positive move.
And the moment you start making it, life can start to change.
Capricorn
Capricorn, the zing of Neptune gets some much-desired green eyes looking your way (at last).
Your marriage zone is Venus-rich and instead of endlessly plotting in your head, you can bring two hearts together -- several times this week.
Sharing unusual public transport leads to new love.
Your zodiac tip, courtesy of Venus, for increasing the love in your life is to work on your partnership skills, and learn how to truly share, everything from responsibility to romance gestures to record-keeping.
A Capricorn tendency to carry work, and worry, on your own shoulders alone can leave you overburdened, and with too much emotional weight.
So you struggle to move forward.
Yes, it can be a challenge for you to share, but once you try it, you won’t look back.
Aquarius
Aquarius, friendship can be the start of so many things this week – including fresh passion shoots in an outdoor setting.
But best of all, you can see how much you matter to someone you may not have been sure of recently.
Don’t wait for love to offer a new kind of relationship, ask for it yourself.
As planet Venus travels through your work and wellbeing sector, you really start to see what areas of career and fitness you can leave well alone, and what you really should be looking at more closely.
If you’re jaded with exercise or diet routines, you can find ways to gee these up – but a total revamp may work better, and your positive Venus influences for the next few weeks help you make some smart but possibly surprising choices.
A strong music beat definitely plays a key part.
Pisces
Pisces, romance is all around this week, all you need to do is open your eyes – and maybe your mind.
Because love may not come in the physique, or identity, package you expect, but you will instantly recognise it as something real.
You’re not just extra creative for the next few weeks, with Venus on the move in your chart you are also emotionally open and imaginative.
And all these elements can come together in the design of a unique celebration, or piece of jewellery.
Plus you could see your ideas presented on a national platform – with room to take them even further.
If you haven’t thought much about children, you soon will – and all sizes of families can line up for a numbers boost.
Taurus
Taurus, yes, the most positive thing you can do for passion – but also for so many other aspects of your life - for the next few weeks, is to talk about every aspect, not just the easy ones, or the exciting ones.
You know there are certain subjects you leave in the shadows, maybe because you’re not sure how a conversation will go.
But when you are courageous enough to bring these topics up this week, you can find words flow better than you expect.
Because from the start, you take charge.
