 by Rick Levine Springtime is often thought of as the season of romance, but this spring Neptune is especially busy spreading its special brand of magic. So much so that regardless of your relationship status, you can expect to fall in love with love itself. Venus is considered the planet of personal love, whereas Neptune symbolizes an ideal — a higher form of love. The key astrological event this spring is the slowly unfolding harmonious trine between illusory Neptune and the optimistic giant, Jupiter. Mark your calendar (and plan a romantic picnic, drive in the country or other playful adventure). This influence is felt strongly around these dates: April 2, April 7, April 27, May 17, June 1, June 10 and June 15. Enjoy the magic of these days, but don’t succumb to the likely temptation to overindulge in one way or another. Although the winds of change are ever blowing toward the future, we also begin this season with Mercury the Messenger in his retrograde phase, pulling our thoughts back into the past. Try as we might to move a romance forward, we are caught in a loop of replaying old thought patterns until Mercury turns direct on April 11. But even this annoying Mercury Retrograde still won't keep us from dreaming of the perfect Neptunian love. Get Your Romance Going
Search thousands of photos of singles. Start a spring fling with a flirty e-card. Hot-to-trot Mars is another planet to watch. He detaches himself from the heat of romance as he moves through group-oriented Aquarius until the end of April, but as a counterpoint, sweet Venus enters her home sign of Taurus on April 15, bringing us to our senses and stimulating our longing for beauty and personal comfort. Our fantasies get passionate as Mars conjuncts dreamy Neptune on April 13. On April 30, however, Mars enters compassionate Pisces and we become more concerned about others than ourselves. By mid-May, when Mars aligns with eccentric Uranus, our impulses are strong and if we don't pay attention and think about consequences, we can find ourselves emotionally in over our heads. Is This Love Just a Dream... Or Could It Be Your Destiny?
Plan a dream date – get quick compatibility advice. Are you soul mates? See what the numbers say. There are a few other pitfalls to watch out for, including difficulty with communication around May 6, unexpected feelings surfacing on May 18, and a general confusion about love on May 21. The first days of June can be sticky if we say what we think. If we don't, however, issues of control may leave us feeling resentment. By mid-June, it all changes again, and we are off to the races. Like horses in the starting gate, we know what we want and believe that nothing can get in our way. The bottom line for spring is this: allow your dreams to take you for a ride but remember that the clouds of illusion are never as perfect once they've precipitated down to earth. So, enjoy the celestial scenery, but keep an umbrella handy! 
Find out what the love goddess, Venus, has in store for you. Who knows… by improving your timing, you could attract your ideal love! You just read the general forecast for everyone. Now get your very own Spring Love Forecast.
