The saying “Beware of what you ask for because you might just get it” could be your mantra for March, dear Ram. Fantasies of being tied up are fulfilled.  Sex outdoors becomes a daily ritual. You bask in the sun: naked and confident. You are showered with attention from your loved ones, and you single Rams have new suitors knocking at your door. On one hand, you do crave some intimacy, and all of this ardor plays right into it. On the other hand though, you may find the attention overwhelming.  Instead of reveling in the glow of all this adoration, you might try to go and hide. Focus yourself inward and really decide what it is you want for yourself and from others.  When you realize what that is, just put it out there: the right person (or people will respond). Try not to sabotage your relationships before they even begin, OK?

When is masturbation month again?  Well for you Taureans out there, it’s March. This month is all about your pleasure and happiness.  Damn it, you deserve it!  You have been dealt some bad cards recently, leaving you feeling vulnerable and disconnected.  Did someone dump you?  Were you taken advantage of?  Lied to? Those incidents have left you apprehensive about diving into a new relationship any time soon, but you really need to let off some steam.  What makes you happy?  Maybe you should buy a new shiny vibrator or dildo and find out.  Celebrate your sexuality this month on your own.  When it really comes down to it, no one knows you better than you do.

I am going to start your month with a word you Twins tend to disdain: patience. Your normal kinky self may feel a little low on energy, so dedicate yourself to daydreaming about your fantasies.  You can fulfill them next month when your stamina is back up. Frustration takes over when you can’t get what you want when you want it.  You just need a break on so many levels. It is OK to have some down time. Really, it is.  Your sex life is not going anywhere for the moment, but it will be back to normal shortly, even though you don’t seem to be getting much this month.  Spend your downtime deciding where you want to go this summer and with whom.  Soon you will have the world back in the palm of your hands, and you will be back to your old perky self.

March proves to be a healing month for you Crabs. Finally, you get to come out of your shell and share yourself with others. Confidence and strength empower you, and all your past fears of not being good enough are slowly dissipating.  That strange feeling you are experiencing is called security. Now that you feel confident in yourself and your sexuality, it is time to really look at what would make your life more fulfilling.  Do you need a monogamous relationship or a triad?  Do you even need a relationship at all?  Sometimes you worry too much about what other people think is acceptable. You need to overcome those worries.  If your fantasy is to pour honey all over your partner and then share a shower together, then speak up.  The more you communicate and let go of the shame you have about your fantasies, the more you will heal and feel secure.  Trust me when I say you are not alone.  Your homework is to not give in to other people’s preconceived notions of who you are. It is up to you to decide what is important to you and defend those beliefs.

Everyone knows that you Lions are the stars of the zodiac.  The minute you walk into the room, all eyes are on you and what you have to say or offer. You are natural-born doms and really do well at controlling any situation you are in.  This month proves no different.  It is all about magic this month, dear Leo.  You have had all kinds of ideas brewing about where you want to focus your energy, and finally this month, all of your pondering starts to come to fruition.  However, with all this power comes responsibility.  As much as you would love to have your cake and eat it too, you need to check in with everyone at the party to see if they are on the same page as you.  Maybe that hot chick you want to dominate has a slightly different fantasy.  Bend a little and make it work for both of you.  Take some quality alone time, and create your master plan for dominating the world—or at least that hottie in the cubicle next to you.

Let me paint a picture for you:  It’s dark and cold outside; crazy shadows are cast all around your room reminiscent of a scene from Donnie Darko; and you just don’t want to get out from under your blanket fearing that the crazy rabbit is out to get you. Well, dear Virgo, this sums up your month.  Something in your life has brought some serious fears to the surface.  You feel alone, abandoned, and exhausted.  The security of your familiar environment is the only thing you feel you have going for you.  Could it get any worse, you ask?  Actually, no.  That’s the good news.  What you are experiencing right now is the worst it’s going to be.  Sometimes we just have to accept that things are not meant to be and let them go.  Keep a journal of your process; use it record your fears or dreams.  The sooner you let go of your current situation, the sooner you will heal.  Sometimes our biggest fears paralyze us from action.  Acknowledge the fear, call it out, and it may actually go running back to where it came from.

Most Libras are known for weighing the odds and looking at all sides of a situation before deciding what is best for them.  This month's game plan proves to be nothing like that.  For the first time in ages, you come across on top of your game. If you’ve fantasized about calling the shots in your relationship, now is your chance. You’ve definitely earned the right.  Be careful of being too impulsive and ignoring other people's boundries though.  It's great that you want to take control, but don’t just assume someone is on the same page as you. Communication is the key.  No one likes a bully!  Your sex partner(s) should really be the one(s) to reap the benefits of your new-found assertiveness rather than feeling the need to defend themselves from it. For you single Libras out there, this is your chance to ask someone out.  You don’t even have to bat your eyelashes and wait for them to notice. Instead you can swoop in, grab hold of their hand, or just go ahead and sit right in their lap. 

 

Scorpio

Challenge: Lust
Homework: Page of Vibrators

The Energizer bunny could learn a thing or two from you, my dear Scorpio.  This month is going to be filled with impulsive spur-of-the-moment adventures.  From the minute you wake up in the morning, you are go, go, go.  While running off with your buddy to go have sex on the beach, you decide to stop in the park and go at it behind a Keith Haring sculpture. You can’t stop thinking about sex this month (wait, do you ever stop thinking about sex?).  You oversexed Scorpios really do seem to have tireless libidos.  If everyone had this problem, we would be a much more relaxed society.  Your homework for this month: find new uses for those sex toys you thought sucked.  I am sure you can come up with some creative uses for that vibrating crab and the pocket rocket that don’t involve building a Burning Man art car.

Homework: 5 of Paddles

As the seasons begin their transition and more daylight comes into play, you Centaurs feel a total shift in your sex lives.  Things feel rejuvenated, and new playmates pop up like flowers all around.  You feel more alive and more in your element than you have in a while.  Like so many other signs this month, your challenge is to really be honest with yourself and ask yourself what is it that you desire. Do you still get off on the same things?  Are you tired of role playing?  Would you rather experiment with a Violet Wand instead?  Explore alternate aspects of your personality.  We all go through cycles in our sexual lives, and you are on the wheel and taking a spin.  Find an old game of LIFE at the thrift store, change the spinner numbers to things you want to try, and spin the pointer.  It could be way more fun than naked Twister.  Your homework involves letting go of worry.  Don’t dwell on the tired and old.  Welcome the fresh and new.

We all have bouts of remorse about things we’ve done and relationships we’ve had.  Cappies tend to take their relationships seriously, and when one doesn’t work out, they put the blame on themselves.  This month is about letting go.  Maybe that guy you obsessed about for months really wasn’t right for you.  You finally see those past relationships for what they weren’t, which makes it easier to let them fade into the woodwork.  It’s difficult not to dwell on the past, but for you to feel secure, you need to make peace with it.  Maybe send a letter to the guy who unexpectedly said goodbye to saying thanks for the lessons he taught you.  I view everyone in my life as a teacher with a lesson to teach me.  Since I am your stereotypical Capricorn, I am taking a spoonful of my own medicine here.  The good news is your homework.  Find out what makes you feel secure.  Yes, it could be a bed with shackles on each corner, but it could also be the realization that the person you are with right now is the right one for you.

Homework: The Emperor

Ah, you Aquarians with your endless fantasies and sex drive this month.  We all want to be your friend.  If your lover was to call you at 2am for a quickie, you would be there in a New-York minute. You seem able to fill everyone’s desire this month, including your own. All this energy is fabulous until you suddenly crash and burn. All of a sudden nothing and no one seems as interesting as having a cocktail at home with an on-screen porn buddy.  What is the trick to not burning out?  Add some structure to your life.  Set some ground rules.  Maybe you should consider hot nights out only three times during the week and staying home on the weekends.  Be honest with your partners when you need some down time, but don’t be afraid to reach out and touch someone when you’re feeling lonely. You’ve got a month of fun ahead of you, and you are the master of your domain.  Just make sure to get a lot of rest on your “off” days.

Happy Birthday, my darling little fishes!  This month is filled with new beginnings for you.  Suddenly you have this sense of urgency to have things be different.  You look at everything like it was for the first time.  Maybe it’s time to play the innocent virgin who’s taken by a stranger.  Or you get to be the genie from the bottle that will fulfill your master’s wishes.  Whatever your fantasy may be, this month gives you the opportunity to explore directions you haven’t followed before.  Single Pisceans: get out there and share your fantasies.  Write a new personal ad, or get a great new outfit and hit the nightclubs.  You will be noticed.  Your homework is to pay attention to what is working and what you have to nix. You have worked hard to see things in a new way; so don’t completely dismiss the things that didn’t work in the past.  Instead see these failures as lessons to learn from.
 

Your Sex Magic Reading for March 2009

Sex magic is being conscious of what you and your partner(s) want and making it happen.  It's about letting go of your stigmas and pretenses and getting real.

Each month, I will draw three cards for each sign. In the tarot, each card carries a very specific meaning, but the individual cards are not as important as the sum of the three together. In the case of sex magic, three things stand out individually and accumulatively. We will look at the month with the Overall Card: will it be good or bad? Fun or serious? Each month has its own tone, and this card sets it. Next is the Challenge Card. Here we look at what pushes your buttons. Sometimes the challenges propel us forward, at other times they keep us from really seeing what we need to focus on. The final card will focus on Homework: what you should be working on this month to enhance your sex life.

Starting next month, I will read the cards for a response to one question chosen from among the many that you, my dear readers, submit.  Please send your questions to me at IdaLovelace@gmail.com.
