Your Sex Magic Reading for January 2010

The month of January is named after the Roman God Janus, who is the guardian of the gates. His image is one of two faces: one looking into the past and one into the future. He gives us hope for new beginnings as the Gregorian calendar year commences. New Year's “resolutions” are made, and if you keep them small, they are often kept. I want to wish a Happy New Year to one and all. May 2010 be filled with excitement, joy and pleasure.

January also marks the one-year anniversary of this column. I would like begin this year with the simple question: How am I starting my year? Thank you for supporting me in the birthing of this dream project; I hope it serves you well.

Finally, if you find yourself tweeting, you can follow me at http://twitter.com/IdaLovelace. I will be doing random 140-character readings for people at whim, or just throwing words of wisdom (aka daily tarot-scopes) out there.

In Service,

Ida Lovelace

Aries

Aries: March 21- April 19 for January 2010

Aries: 8 of Paddles

It takes much talent and effort to make things flow flawlessly. Whether it is a new business venture or relationship, this year starts off with a bang. There is no gentle ramp-up for you this January, my dear Aries. You just pick up where you left off before the holiday parties started. Make sure you are actually enjoying what you do. You might have mastered that "come hither" g-spot move, but do you actually like doing it? Or does it cramp your hand? Use your talents wisely. You run so well on auto-pilot you might consider actually taking a break somewhere mid-month. This month sets the tone for the rest of the year, so don’t forget to breathe. Take the time to break a habit that is keeping you from growing.

Taurus

Taurus: April 20- May 20 for January 2010

Taurus: The Magician

You couldn’t have gotten a better card to start the year with, my dear Taurus. The Magician represents fresh starts and the ability to choose the tools you need to move forward. You have so many talents, but you just need to spend a little time being focused so that you can apply them. Last year's ups and downs taught you many things about your boundaries and personal limits, and you get to put those boundaries and limits to use right away this month. Make this month count: it is filled with potential. Direct your intent, and it will manifest exactly what you need. Whether it is a screaming orgasm in the woods or a new partner who understands that a big brain turns you on more than big balls, everything will be laid out for you on a table. I hope you're going to be really hungry because there will be a lot to choose from in that buffet.

Gemini

Gemini: May 21- June 20 for January 2010

Gemini: 6 of Whips

After a rather long journey through some tough times, this year starts with a glimmer of hope. We all get caught up in our own agendas, and you spent the better part of last year trying to figure out what worked for you and what you needed to leave behind. A short vacation this month would prove beneficial for you as a means to see the final outcome. Take your time and realize the journey is as important as the final destination. Choose wisely who you want by your side, since they will be there when the road gets rocky. Little “issues” you might have had sexually over the last few months are slowly melting away, and a new you is being formed. Don’t get hung-up on what is not working, since you are leaving it all behind for better things as the month progresses.

Cancer

Cancer: June 21- July 22 for January 2010

Cancer: 10 of Paddles

Now that the holidays are over and you have bought everyone naughty on your list what they wanted, it is time for you to get yours. You will be showered with physical things this month. Somehow you have scored an extended vacation for January, and you should take advantage of it. Take a trip to the Adult Expo in Vegas; go hit the ski slopes; spend time with those peeps that matter to you. This month is about being social. Catch up with people you haven’t seen in a while. You will have plenty of time for some hot one-on-one, but it is important to keep those networks you created up. Someone up there forgot to check the "Christmas is over" button, so enjoy the showering of extra attention and gifts bestowed upon you. You are a very lucky Crab this month.

Leo

Leo: July 23- August 22 for January 2010

Leo: Page of Paddles

As much as you usual MO is to be the center of attention in all that you do, it is time to start this year a little differently. It would behoove you to play the role of the observer this month. You cannot always be the master of your domain, and this month you find yourself respecting the talents of others. Appreciating other people’s gifts is really sexy, and when someone does something amazing that knocks off your socks, let them know. Magic and passion can be kindled from the smallest flame; you don’t need a fireworks display every time. Taking the back seat and appreciating others' talents will open doors to new interests and fetishes you might have not even considered a few months back.

Virgo

Virgo: August 23- September 22 for January 2010

Virgo: Mistress of Paddles

OK, I know this is a sex-based tarot-scope, and you want me to tell you that you will have every sexual encounter you have ever wanted this month, but sometimes even our sexual needs get trumped by other needs. In this case, it is that pesky internal clock ticking. Are you and your partner considering expanding your family? This month, that desire is really ramping up. Yes, it could be something as obvious as having a child, but it could also be getting a pet or opening your relationship up to other prospective partners. Make sure you have open discussions with those around you if you are serious about this “expansion.” Don’t keep your needs and desires to yourself. Share them. Within the dynamic of your relationships, make sure you don’t lose who you are. Keywords for this month are productivity and fertility.

Libra

Libra: September 23 – October 22 for January 2010

Libra: Master of Paddles

The New Year starts off with you repeating a two-part affirmation to yourself. The first part is: I will stand my ground when it comes to my needs and desires. Part two is: I am talented and know what the hell I want! You have drawn a protective magical circle around yourself and have basically come to the conclusion that you'd rather sit on top of your mountain alone than with jerks who treat you like shit. You really are the master of your domain, and you should be proud of it. Unlike last year, you are starting 2010 at the top of the mountain. Stay there for a while; gain your confidence back; and when you are ready, show the world what you are made of! Everyone will be shocked by your honesty and new ability to tell it like it is. Be ready to have them succumb to you!

Scorpio

Scorpio: October 23 – November 21 for January 2010

Scorpio: 10 of Fantasies

Congratulations, my dear Scorpios, you finally have found a balance between what you crave and desire and what actually brings you happiness. You are surrounded by people you love, and you find intimacy in your relationships that your hot sex romps have lacked in the past. It is finally about love and not just sex. I know you want it to be about sex, but consider this: being in love lets you put you guard down and actually enjoy life and pleasure—not just the physical moment. Quoting the Beatles: All you need is love. I do indeed hope this feeling lasts throughout the year and the rest of your life because there really is nothing better than feeling in balance with the people who surround you.

Sagittarius

Sagittarius: November 22- December 21 for January 2010

Sagittarius: Temperance

Letting go at the end of last year was tough, and January is all about healing—both physically and mentally. Finding your inner strength is sometimes a challenge for you but this month, you will enjoy the challenge. Learn to say no to what doesn’t serve you and yes to those who will serve you! Spend time both on land and in water if you can: You will find great healing being out in nature. January will be an “a-ha!” month for you. Take the time to acknowledge what you screwed up last year and also where you shone. By the end of the month, you will be able to face any challenge from dealing with sore lovers to figuring out the crazy bondage bed you just bought.

Capricorn

Capricorn: December 22- January 19 for January 2010

Capricorn: Faith

Happy Birthday, my dear Capricorn brothers and sisters! We begin this year with a rather deep and heavy question: Where does our faith come from? This is not a question about which god/goddess you do or do not believe in, but a a much more intimate, personal questioning than that. Where do you put the trust that propels you forward in your life? Are you comfortable in your sexual body? Does your partner insist upon doing things that make you cringe? Find what drives you, and express it to the people around you. If you are not getting enough sex and your partner doesn’t have the time, use those toys! Set up a temple night at home where and when it is all about passion and play. Call people to join you in your sacred space. By the end of January, you will feel really secure in what you want and be able to spend the rest of the year getting it.

Aquarius

Aquarius: January 20- February 18 for January 2010

Aquarius: 10 of Vibrators

Do you already have the feeling that it is going to be one of those years? You may not be far off. It is time to stop holding yourself back. In some instances, we don’t want to tell someone that they stress us out, but who does that really benefit? You need to delegate chores when things become overwhelming for you. Sex shouldn’t be on your task list; it should be something spontaneous. You have so much passion, and no one seems to be able to kindle it for you. Maybe this should be your masturbation month for the year, since everyone else seems to be off in their own world leaving you to bear the load. Take the time for little pleasures because the month leading up to your birthday is not going to be the easiest one.

Pisces

Pisces: February 19- March 20 for January 2010

Pisces: 6 of Fantasies

There is something about past lovers that leaves a smile on my face. They bestowed upon me their tricks and passions, and even though we ended up parting ways, all of them had something amazing to share and teach me. It is not uncommon for people to get off to fantasies of past lovers, even if they are happily involved currently. January is going to be a walk down Memory Lane for you, my dear Pisceans. Whether you actually hook up with lovers from your past or just have fond memories of that ménage-à-trois from last summer, January opens the memory gates of relationships from days gone by. There is lots of fun to be had all this month; just remember to do a reality check once in a while. As much as we don’t want to admit it, we all grow up, and that boy that gave you the blow job in the bathroom two years ago may be playing house in the suburbs now. Savor the memories and get ready to smile.
