Love is a tricky, unpredictable thing. It’s hard to tell if, when and for how long we’ll be able to bask in the warm glow of romance. Fortunately, we can look to the stars for insight on ourselves and what next year has to offer. So here’s your zodiac sign love forecast in general and for 2020. Check your Venus placement here, too — it’s important.
Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Child-like, energetic, and upfront are the key words to describe Aries when it comes to love. They can be a little self-centered, but they’re up for the chase (if you’re worth it), and they’re always down for a good time.
Aries in Love 2020
Love is going to take a backseat to Aries’ personal life for the first part of the year, but come August, things will start to look up. By September, you’ll be seeing some real growth, but you’re going to have to expand your horizons to find that special someone.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Taurus are dependable, loyal, and addicted to the comfort that love provides. They may come off as possessive at times, but it’s only because they want nothing more than to be able to share a good bottle of wine in front of a fire with their special someone.
Taurus in Love 2020
2020 is all about relationship improvement, Taurus. If you’re looking for change, you’re going to have to wait until May to see it, but true growth in matters of the heart isn’t going to come your way until August or September.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Gemini is a sign of communication, so when it comes to love, conversation is the key. They aren’t particularly deep when it comes to matters of the heart, and they can be a little flighty, but they sure are fun to be around.
Gemini in Love 2020
May and June are big months for Gemini in terms of love and relationships, and there’s a chance you’ll embark on a long-term thing halfway through the year. Late summer can bring some trouble though, so be aware of old issues coming back to haunt you.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Cancers are all about care, and they show their love by doing just that. Their ideal love situation is one that’s going to be committed, safe, and fairly predictable, and they tend to be pretty sensitive, so you’ll have to be careful with them, too.
Cancer in Love 2020
Early summer is a time of change, with certain stale relationships coming to an end. Don’t worry, though — it’s a good thing you’re leaving them behind. Plus, it makes room for someone new to enter your life by September.
Leo (July 23 - August 22)
Like the lion that represents them, Leos are proud, loyal, and just a little showy (okay, a lot showy). They want to feel like they’re the center of your world, and they’re willing to do the same for you, if there’s love — and great sex— involved.
Leo in Love 2020
2020 is going to start with a bang for Leos, as their personal relationships are expected to have serious influence in their lives for most of January and February. Newness is key, and forging relationships will take up much of your time.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Virgos aren’t afraid of hard work, which is obvious in the way that they approach love. They’ll rarely be the initiator, but once you’ve got them, they’re in it for the long haul. Just try not to look down on their critical nature too much.
Virgo in Love 2020
2020 is going to be pretty unpredictable, which may not be the most welcome surprise for Virgo. You’re going to be attracted to different things, and by May you might find yourself in a brand new love situation.
Libra (September 23 - October 22)
It’s all about fairness and equality with Libra, who love nothing more than smooth sailing when it comes to their relationships. They hate conflict, and they’ll even go so far as to let their own feelings go, just to keep the peace.
Libra Love 2020
The first half of 2020 is going to be a challenge for Libra, and you may find yourself getting frustrated with the people around you. In May, you’ll start to see new people coming into your life, and by November, your luck in love will improve tremendously.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
Intensity, commitment, and sexual pleasure is Scorpio in a nutshell. They can tend toward being controlling and sometimes jealous in relationships, but if you prove yourself worthy of their affection, they will rock your entire world.
Scorpio in Love 2020
The coming year is looking to be pretty smooth sailing for Scorpio, as the big focus for 2020 is actually on career, as opposed to relationships. But in May and again in October, you could find some of your personal relationships shifting.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
Sagittarius is a hard one to catch, as they generally move from new experience to new experience. It isn’t that they’re unable to commit, but they do need to feel a sense of freedom in their relationships. They’re fun and flirty and will always make you laugh.
Sagittarius in Love 2020
Unlike Scorpio, love is a going to be big for Sagittarius in 2020. From April until August, you can expect your current relationships to go through a big growth phase, with some possible happy surprises happening by July.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Capricorn is ruled by hard work and practicality, and their approach to love can feel a little like an actual job. They’re success-oriented, so the lovey-dovey nature of relationships will sometimes take a backseat to their need for security.
Capricorn in Love 2020
As if life didn’t feel challenging enough for Capricorn, love and relationships could be put to the test for at least the first part of the year (actually, you may already have been feeling it since summer). Don’t worry, though — by September, you’ll be experiencing more harmony.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
There’s a reason behind the bohemian connotation surrounding the “age of Aquarius.” They’re unique, to be sure, and totally unconventional in love. They’re big dreamers and need a partner who will praise them for being the free spirits they are.
Aquarius in Love 2020
Creative new people are set to enter your life at the beginning of the year, Aquarius, and you’ll have a fun and interesting first part of 2020. Late summer is going to be the most impactful for you regarding romance, and you could have a little trouble seeing eye to eye in early September.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Dreamy, moody, and elusive, Pisces are the type to always have their heads in the clouds. They’re sensitive — sometimes too sensitive — but it’s that level of sensitivity that allows them to see and appreciate a person for who they really are, faults and all.
Pisces in Love 2020
Out with the old, in with the new (and sometimes old, too) is going to be your 2020 mantra, Pisces. This is a big year for love, and if you’ve been waiting for a long time, the wait is over. By October, someone from your past could come back into your life.
