Feliz Compleaños AQUARIUS

On the 1st, you'll get a lift with an unexpected financial gift. Invest some money in your feet with a new pair of tango shoes or a reflexology session. Being good to yourself is the key to a great connection with your mate. Expect a deepening of intimacy now as the mature planets orbit through your houses of partnership. Consider this relationship as the tango of your life.

PISCES

Your psychic ability and intuition are very strong now. Have you noticed how you always know what tanda is coming next? Consider using these skills at the racetrack or Polo Club. Take a gamble on a new dance partner as well. Your risk will pay off big time by the 27th both personally and financially.

ARIES

Your opinion and energy are desired both socially and politically. Great changes are happening in the skeletal structure of tango and you have an opportunity to lead the way. Don't let minor aches and pains or a bad mood stand in the way of you going to the milongas. Contacts are EVERYTHING now and you will prosper through all the connections you make.

TAURUS

You want more professional freedom so that you can enjoy the late hours of the tango life. Don't give up your day job just yet. By the 18th, some financials solutions will come your way that help to open the door to the bigger change you seek. In the meantime, take advantage of the afternoon and weekend milongas, as you still need to be up early during the week to successfully cultivate your career.

GEMINI

This year is the 250th birthday of Mozart and you'll find your ears drawn away from the tango tunes and toward more classical compositions. You are looking to free up your dance and in order to do that, you will have to explore other dance styles and yes, dare I say OTHER DANCES!!! Your tango friends will find this behavior threatening, but you will experience it all as a wonderful breath of fresh air.

CANCER

Get out of the house and away from the barrio. Dancing out of town clears up your blues and opens the door to a steady partner. This could mean a romantic commitment or a professional one. Either way, no more playing the field for you. You will still dance with others but only to increase the happiness you feel of "coming home" to dance with that special one.

LEO

Freedom in a relationship is key for you now. That could mean dancing a more open style tango or rotating partners more often. In love, this issue is more complicated. You will need a separation of some sort in order to work things through. Step back now, as a move closer will be suffocating.

VIRGO

Freedom from your rigid work schedule leaves you without structure right now and that could lead to a minor neurotic attack. Don't panic and don't get rigid with your schedule either. Just take a deep breath and relax into the unknown. Follow your heart and your eyes now and just be in the moment.

Libra

You are dealing with some very eccentric characters right now. Luckily (or unluckily) these encounters are brief (like a nine minute tanda). During the cortinas, you can reflect on which relationships you would like to develop further. However, it is unadvisable to make a serious commitment to just one until the end of the month.

SCORPIO

If you are a milonguero, expect your sex appeal to increase rapidly as Mars generates tons of energy in your house of love.  If you are a milonguera, expect to attract machos like flies to the honey pot. For either sex, don't bring anyone HOME! Check out the other's digs or find a telo* for some fun.

SAGITTARIUS

Friendship and learning are the focus this month. Free up as much time as you can to socialize and catch up with visiting pals. You'll also need some evenings to take advantage of visiting teachers. Movement is very easy for you now and your flexibility allows old bad habits to fall away with ease.

CAPRICORN

Free entrance to the milongas and invitations to your favorite teachers' workshops make the tango life very affordable for you now. In general some crazy things are happening with money and you need to be as spontaneous with your investments as you are with your traspie. Forget about the prelearned steps. Being creative, on the beat, and in the moment, will pay off big time.
