Love Notes: Weekend May 3-5

Brief love reading for each of the signs. Be sure to look at your Sun, Moon and Rising sign for an expanded perspective.

Underlying Theme for All the Signs: Some challenges may seem insurmountable, especially if your boundaries have been crossed. As a result, you may firmly put out the message that you are not interested in trying to reconcile or compromise. Perhaps it was audacious boldness or a risk that didn’t pan out that led to ending on a negative note and a parting of the ways. Even if you were resolutely in the right, you may still be coping with the residual effect of this experience. Should you hold out hope for a reconciliation, you’ll need to keep an open mind and be particularly careful in your approach to working out issues or coming to mutual terms as there are deep trust issues involved.
