"Your
sun sign can tell a lot about you as a lover. It
can help you explore how you approach your
romantic love interests." Heidi Richards Is
it easy for you to get close to someone or do you
take your time in developing meaningful
relationships? What does your partner bring to
your relationship that either helps it blossom or
keeps it from going anywhere? Are you finding love
elusive or does it come easy? How do you relate to
those you are romantically attracted to? What kind
of relationship are you looking for? What kind of
partner are you seeking? While reading about your
sun sign is not the entire answer to the age-old
challenge of finding the right partner, it can be
a start. Your sun-sign is only one aspect of your
persona, what makes you, you. Your Rising and Moon
also determine the life you were born to lead.
Romance, Astrology and You will shed some light on
sun signs and romance. Beyond that, you may wish
to you seek professionals who can prepare your
chart and give you a more in-depth
personality/life reading.
The signs are divided into the four elements which
represent them. They are the elements of Fire,
Earth, Air and Water. This first page covers the
Fire signs - Aries, Leo and Sagittarius. The Earth
signs - Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn are on the
next page, Air signs - Gemini, Libra and Aquarius,
the next and the last page is dedicated to the
Water signs – Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.
Fire Signs
Fire signs represent enthusiasm and energy. The
hallmark of fire is inspiration. With a joy for
life, they can be ardent, forceful and have a
tendency to be extremely impulsive.
ARIES - (March 22 - April 20). Aries is ruled by
Mars, and its symbol is the Ram. Aries is a Fire
sign, impulsive and energetic. You are bold and
impatient, easily infatuated, and often lose
interest if boredom sets in. You tend toward
impulsive rather than cautious when it comes to
matters of the heart, making your interest known
(sometimes too quickly), and you tend to be very
direct – shy is not a word to describe the
impetuous Aries. You quickly bounce back from
rejection, although it isn’t something you are
use to, as you like to get your way. Quips and
quarrels are often seen as foreplay with the
direct Aries. You like the conquest in romance and
can play "hard-to-get". You find it
stimulating when the object of your affection
plays the same game. However, in the long run you
love to let yourself be caught, to be "swept
away" with desire. You gravitate toward the
confident, rather than those who appear needier.
Aries loves to be caressed and told that you are
the best.
LEO - (July 23 – August 22) Leo is ruled by the
Sun and its symbol is the lion. As a Fire sign,
Leo’s world revolves around the principles of
identity and drama. You love to be the center of
your partner’s adoration and attention. You tend
to be flamboyant and melodramatic when it comes to
matters of the heart. You crave attention and find
ways to announce that you have arrived, whether it
be with a look, the way you “waltz” into a
room, the way you toss your head or even the way
you walk up to someone and give them a gentle
touch. You are a true romantic and have been known
to write a poem or two. You have style, are
generous and love to “surprise” the object of
your affection with flowers and candy. In fact,
surprises are second nature to you. You often
sport an aristocratic air, even if you weren’t
born into nobility. You love to be adored and
admired and taking the lead in romance gives you a
sense of power. You expect to be respected, and
will act worthy of respect with one you desire.
You know how to turn on the charm and raise the
heat in a relationship. Leos love to be touched
and admired.
SAGITTARIUS - (November 22 – December 21)
Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter and is symbolized
by the archer. This Fire sign is connected with
the identity. You crave variety, new ideas, and
new experiences. In fact, you can be a little
"excessive," which means you can over-do
things a bit - or a lot. You love to explore new
places, people and foods. Change is something you
simply cannot live without. Routine is not a word
that sits well with you and anyone romantically
interested in the archer better be ready for
adventure. You are a truth seeker, love to learn
and your interests are eclectic and varied. You
tend to embellish things a bit (almost to the
point of exaggeration) especially when it comes
someone who might be attracted to you. You want
them to find you as interesting as you find life
itself. You love your "space" and
freedom and want your partner to feel the same.
You find independence in others as sexy as it is
second nature to you. Playful dates are a real
turn-on for someone seeking a good-time. When it
comes to love-interests, you want to be
"friends first". Honesty is paramount to
you and you expect it from those in your life,
especially your mate. You can be philosophical one
moment and class clown the next. You are very
jovial and will seek a partner who makes you
laugh. When it comes to spirituality, you consider
yourself a guide along the long and winding road
to self-discovery. And when in the learning mode,
the Sagittarius will be a "seeker" or
student to those who can teach or inspire you.
Sagittarians are as turned-on by a stimulating
conversation as they are by sensual exploration.
Earth signs are physical and have to do with
primarily material affairs. They are natural and
their feet tend to be firmly planted on the
ground, "earthy" types. The hallmark of
earth signs is practicality. TAURUS - (April 21
– May 21) Taurus is ruled by Venus and its
symbol is the bull. Taurus is an Earth sign which
is connected with fruitfulness and stability. You
love luxury and sensual comforts such as silky
satin sheets, robes fit for a king or queen and
beautiful surroundings. You seek comfort, security
and beauty. A perfect romance to you is one that
is harmonious and beautiful, even if a bit
materialistic. Because of your fondness for pretty
things, you will proudly display your possessions
and purchasing power. You are easygoing, calm, and
comfortable to be around. You enjoy sharing
"quiet times" with your love interest
and also get excited about everyday activities
such as shopping and cooking and dining. You tend
to be stubborn and will do whatever you can to get
what you want. When it comes to showering
affection on the object of your desire, you enjoy
physical contact. You have a very sensual nature
and appreciate the pleasures of food, art, music,
perfumes, fondling, or sex. Because you appreciate
nature; a walk in the woods, hiking and
rock-climbing may be considered exciting dates.
You also love sunsets camping, gardening and
simply being outdoors and can be attracted to
those who are equally down-to-earth and outdoorsy.
As long as your partner or mate displays the
qualities of loyalty and honesty qualities which
you likely possess, they will have your undying
loyalty and a relationship destined to endure.

by Mercury and is symbolized by the Virgin. As an
Earth sign, Virgo is connected with material
things and practicality. The ultimate organizer,
you gravitate toward anything that puts your
analytical mind to use. To the outside world you
may appear reserved and tend to hold back your
emotions, when it comes to love, it’s no holds
barred for the loving Virgo. You display great
attention to detail which can be considered good
fortune or a curse when it comes to relationships.
You are good at remembering your partner’s
desires (even those that were only mentioned in
passing) and love to cater to those desires. To
you, organizing the object of your affections is
considered “flirting.” Your favorite role is
to be of help and service to friends and partners.
You are witty, perceptive and logical. Your
reasoning powers help you to resolve conflicts
easily and quickly taking your romance to new
depths. You need a partner who will help you
loosen your cautious shy nature. You are a good
listener and communicator, an important aspect in
romance. You love to “fuss” over your partner
and can sometimes be seen as critical. Your
partner should know though, that if you were not
interested, you would not work so hard to help
your love interest be “all he or she can be.”
Good health is of great concern to you and you
work hard to take care of yourself. You aim to
please and when it comes to love you fall hard.

themselves physically fit.

goat. As an Earth sign, Capricorn is motivated,
determined and sets practical goals. Taking
unnecessary risks is not your “thing,” even in
the area of romance. You are ambitious and
responsible. You will, however do “whatever it
takes” to get what you want. Social status,
reputation, position, and career are important to
you. You use these to impress and attract the
object of your desires. When it comes to love, no
silly games for you, you prefer a more mature
approach to courtship. Glamour and dazzle are more
your style – so an evening that starts out in a
limousine would be perfect. You are supportive and
dependable, good qualities in any relationship.
Security, a good home, and the finer things in
life are what you strive for. You do not shy away
from commitment, as long as it is with the right
person – in fact you "play for keeps"
and will be forever faithful. Some might consider
you a loner, but do not be fooled by the aloof
Capricorn. You are longing for a deep, meaningful
relationship with just the right partner.
Capricorns can be as powerful in the bedroom as
they are in the boardroom, so lovers beware. You
are seen by your peers as a “winner” and often
attract the same. When it comes to romantic
adventures, you are both practical and romantic so
a perfect getaway for you could include both work
and play.

sides of each party involved and the truth; which
you have a knack for discovering. You can be a
prolific writer. Love letters, poetry and notes
are easily used to seduce the object of your
affection. And mind games are beyond your realm of
romantic antics. Internet chat rooms and forums

your future mate online. You have been known to
give “good phone,” and enjoy long
conversations that revolve around romance and
sexual innuendos. Flirting is second nature to you

life and will find ways of including those you
love and admire in your plans, whether it be at
work, home or play. Although crowds of people
don’t seem to bother you, you prefer spending
time with your love interest alone rather than in
a group setting. You may start out at a big gala

humanitarian, you long for social reform and
prefer those who share your thoughts on life over
those who easily conform to societal pressures.

are sometimes thought of as a “rebel with a
cause” and will be attracted to a partner who
you shares your desire to change the world. You
are a free spirit who needs his or her own space,
but don’t mind sharing that space with the
object of your affection, as long as you don’t
get pushed into a corner. You enjoy sharing your
vision of the future with the one you desire and
consider it your way of flirting. Sometimes you
appear aloof or unemotional, which can be a
turn-off for some. Not to worry, the right person
will find it attractive and be curious to know
what lies beneath that detached exterior. It seems
an odd way to "flirt", but it can be
attractive to those who are curious and have a
similar demeanor. It is the game of “intrigue”

ends of the earth to make those in your life feel
safe and secure. Family is important to you and
