Weekly horoscopes: Negative attention

 

We all crave attention, and there’s nothing wrong with that. However, there is a difference between positive attention and negative attention, and that is something that you will want to watch out for with Venus entering the zodiac sign of Aries on March 21. Not only can Venus inspire you to make some questionable fashion purchases when she’s passing through this sign (you may want to check in with friends to make sure that your wardrobe choices are age-appropriate), but she can also lead you to overplay your hand with the men in your life. Flirting with your boyfriend’s friends, forcing the issue of promotion with your boss by talking about how rival companies are headhunting you or gossiping with a client after hours won’t get you the attention you want. If anything, it will do more harm than good. Cool it with the self-promotion and don’t push so much, and people will recognize you for who you are.

Weekly horoscopes: Naked ambition

Mars, the planet of power and drive, enters Aries on March 11. This will make you headstrong, reckless and ready to tackle the steep challenges in life. Mars is the planet of “that’s what I want, and I want it now.” It pumps up your drive, pours gasoline on your burning desires and makes you talk really loudly — like when you’re at a rock concert. Mars will always aim for something higher. Now there’s nothing wrong with naked ambition as long as you don’t try to dress it up as something else. Do that and you will create more resistance and pushback than you would if you were just honest about what you want. This Mars energy will be impacting people born under Aries, Leo, Scorpio and Sagittarius. If you weren’t born under any of these signs, then watch out because they won’t be taking no for an answer.

Love lessons from black and white movies

I’ll admit that I’m a reality TV junkie. I watch everything from The Bachelor to Hoarders to every single one of the Real Housewives franchises. But my other guilty pleasure is black and white movies. I love the old-school glamour. And those men are men! No metrosexual ridiculousness going on with them. They knew what they wanted, and they went for it. And of course, I love the love in those movies. There was real romance back then. Black and white movies have real lessons to teach about love. Here are three of my favorite.

What to do when he starts sexting you

Ever had a guy you’ve been flirting with take it a little too far? I think every woman’s been there. The coffee shop guy who gives you extra whipped cream every morning asks for your number. Or the guy at work you have lunch with sometimes asks to take you out for drinks. Or maybe it’s a guy at a bar who gets a little handsy way before you’re comfortable with it. It’s just something that happens between men and women. And with cell phones part of the norm, these little misfires are becoming more common on text. So here’s what to do when a guy takes your flirty text relationship to the next level and starts sexting with you.

Weekly horoscopes: Careful what you wish for

 

Wishes often come true when Jupiter, the planet of good fortune, is powerful like it will be this week. The problem is that they won’t come true in the way that you expect, and therein lies your dilemma. Maybe your gain results in somebody else’s loss, or the prize in reach will cost you something of equal value or perhaps it’s something as simple as what you get isn’t quite what you had imagined. But then again — that’s the funny thing about wishes. The very thing that was supposed to make you happy often brings a new set of headaches because you didn’t really anticipate what the consequences would be. But one person’s predicament is another person’s adventure, and if you embrace the spirit in which is it is offered, then you could see your wish going on to fulfill you in ways you never dreamed were possible.
