THE TOP 10 QUESTIONS MEN ASK ABOUT S*X
S*xologist Emily Morse answers your most common—and sometimes embarrassing—questions about women and s*x.

1. Why can’t she or**sm?
If your girlfriend can’t or**sm during in*******se, she’s not alone—80% of women don’t reach or**sm through in*******se alone; most women require an assist from extra cl****al stimulation. To top that off, one in three women has trouble reaching or**sm at all. There could be many reasons, and none of them have to do with your s*xual prowess. She might be feeling stressed or anxious, she may have low self-esteem or she may be just plain inexperienced with her own body. It’s all about a woman knowing her own hot spots, and once she figures them out, she can show you how she gets there. Another fun way to tilt the or**sm odds is to try out a s*x toy. Incorporating a vi****or for extra cl****al stimulation during in*******se will definitely increase the odds of her having an or**sm.

2. How can we reignite the passion we had in the beginning?
When you first start dating a new person, every moment is s*xy and thrilling because it’s uncharted territory. As the relationship develops, it becomes more routine, and therefore more boring. Once it becomes boring, the s*x can become obsolete.
S*x is amazing at the beginning because there’s still mystery, excitement, and spontaneity, the foundation to keeping great s*x alive. Planning things like date nights and new activities will help keep the relationship fresh, interesting, and s*xy. And as uns*xy as it sounds, set aside “s*x time” for you and your partner to try new things. Make a s*x bucket list of what you’d both like to try and cross something off the list every week or month. Be adventurous, be kinky, share your fantasies with each other and then make them happen. You’d be surprised what a new toy or change of scenery can do. Chances are, the spark hasn’t actually gone out; it’s just that no one’s been fanning the flames.

3. How can I get her to have s*x with me more often?
You’re never going to “get” anyone to have more s*x with you if you look at it as a one-way street. You want more s*x, and you expect your girlfriend or wife to come along for your pleasure ride. If you really want more s*x from your partner, tailor the s*x to her needs, instead of focusing all your attention on your pleasure.
While it’s common for couples to have mismatched libidos, it doesn’t necessarily mean she doesn’t like s*x as much you do, she just might not need it as often. A woman’s s*x drive is tied to her brain more than her nether regions. This means she needs to be warmed up for action. Foreplay starts after the last or**sm; so if you’re feeling that she’s never in the mood, work on turning her on. Send her a flirty text message and tell her how good she felt last time you were together and what you’re going to do the next time you see her. Speaking of foreplay, kissing is another overlooked way to get things going and it’s often the first thing to slip by the wayside in long-term relationships. Lock lips to enhance intimacy and connection.

The last thing you want to do is to blame or pressure her, the more you push, the less she’ll want to give which won’t result in more action for you. You get more s*x with honey than with vinegar. Sometimes couples just aren’t matched up s*xually no matter what you do, so it might take compromise on both parts to set a s*x schedule that works for both of you.

4. How can I get her to be more adventurous in bed?
Approach the issue playfully. Make it a game, instead of a game changer. Start an open discussion about things that you’d like to try in the bedroom. Encourage your partner to write down things that turn her on and you’ll do the same. Then swap lists and read to each other in bed. Watching p**n together is another fun way to get inspiration and to warm your partner up to trying new things. If she sees it acted out on screen, she might find herself feeling more aroused and less intimidated. If your partner is more vanilla, start slowly and carefully. If she loves missionary s*x, suggest new positions, like girl-on-top. With each small move she makes on the “adventure” scale, give her positive feedback to let her know how much these things turn you on.

5. Sometimes I finish too quickly, what’s wrong with me?
There’s nothing wrong with you. It sounds like you’re up close and personal with the number-one s*xual issue that men face today—premature ej*******on. Most men have experienced this at least a few times in their lives, but for others it’s a persistent nuisance almost every time they have in*******se. PE is often attributed to a number of factors including anxiety, psychological issues, or a variety of medical conditions.
The good news is that you can work on it and improve your ability to control your erections. You can become a champion in bed just by doing Kegel exercises to strengthen your pubococcygeus (PC) muscles , which can help you last longer during s*x. Reducing anxiety is key, so consider trying yoga or meditation. Fleshlight makes a great stamina-training unit where you can incorporate the “stop-start” method during ma********on, training yourself to control your ej*******on. Or you can try the only FDA-approved treatment for PE, a mild delay spray called Promescent. Use it 10 minutes before s*x and double your staying power. No matter what you do, it’s best to communicate the anxiety that you’re experiencing about this issue to your partner and your doctor. Just talking about it will alleviate some of the stress and shame you feel and put you on road to finding the right solution.

6. How can I get my partner to have a**l s*x?
A**l s*x is the “it” thing to get your partner to do. Yes, it’s naughty and a little bit taboo, but when done wrong, a**l can be a real pain-in-the-ass (pun intended) and an absolute nightmare on the receiving end. Whether she had a bad experience, or knows someone who had a bad experience, the majority of women are predisposed to fear a**l s*x. Your goal here is to make this the most pleasurable experience possible for her.
First, approach the topic by talking about new things you’d like to try in bed. Let her know how much the idea of a**l s*x turns you on, without being pushy. If you force the issue, you run the risk of her going into lockdown mode. If your partner is into idea, start with foreplay to get her warmed up and relaxed, a requirement for her pleasure. Start small by gently rubbing around the area during s*x or when you’re going down on her. You can also try using your tongue to stimulate the sensitive nerve endings that are rarely explored. If she feels comfortable with these initial steps, you can move on to inserting a digit, then two, and so on. There should be communication happening every step of the way with a**l s*x—before, during, and after. Especially if it s the first time or first few times she’s having a**l s*x, ask her about her pleasure and comfort levels throughout the experience. And do not forget the l**e. There is no such thing as too much l**e when it comes to a**l s*x.

7. How can I improve my oral s*x skills?
Think about something you excel at and chances are, you rock it because you really enjoy doing it. The same goes for giving great oral. The best way to be great at oral s*x is to learn to like it. Or at least act like you do. That will help her feel more comfortable and then you will find you actually do enjoy it.
The biggest mistakes guys make when performing oral is going straight for her ge****ls. Don’t dive right in like it’s a pie-eating contest! She’s not warmed up yet, and it might even hurt her if she’s not aroused. The best thing to do is to tease her and draw out the experience before you even start going down. Plant kisses on her abdomen and thighs. Use your hands to gently massage the area surrounding her va**na to heighten her anticipation. When you finally do make contact, start off slowly with slight licks and gentle caresses to warm her up. Use both the tip and flat part of your tongue to flick and lick. Women tend to prefer circular motions, but experiment with different speeds and pressure, and pay attention to how she responds. If you’re feeling adventurous, try tracing the alphabet with your tongue, or lightly humming to create a slight vibrating sensation. You can also throw your fingers into the mix to try a little G-**ot stimulation along with your tongue. As she gets closer to climax, keep doing exactly what you’re doing. Once she’s had her Big O, return to the gentle kisses around her outer l***a and thighs before popping your head up to experience the praise for your hard work.

8. How can I have a th*****me?
Depending on the situation, th*****mes can either be extremely fun or really dangerous for the relationship. If one of the two people in question is your significant other, proceed with caution. Make sure that you and your significant other are in a good place—emotionally, s*xually or otherwise. If you’re not strong in any of those areas, the th*****me could be the straw that breaks the relationship’s back. Preexisting jealousy issues and low self-esteem are signs you should abort the mission. Only couples with a solid healthy relationship and adventurous s*xual tastes should attempt to ride the tricycle. If you and your partner meet the criteria, the next step is introducing the idea in a non-threatening way. Just like a**l s*x, if you mess up the intro, the door will slam in your face. Initiate a conversation about both of your fantasies. When you bring up the idea, make her the center of your th*****me scenario. Talk about how s*xy it would be to see her with another woman. She will certainly feel more desired and this will squash any insecurities she has about you wanting to be with another woman.
After this, you and your partner need to lay down some ground rules, like whether you’ll invite a friend or a guest star, what are the no-no’s, how you want the night to end, and so on. If you’re both open to the experience, and honest with each other, you can both get the most out of your ménage a trios.

9. Is my p***s too small?
Let’s start with the facts: Scientifically speaking, a p***s is not considered to be small if it is more than three inches in length. That being said, only about 35% of men believe that the size of their p***s is sufficient. That’s a lot of p***s anxiety. In contrast, a 2012 Scottish study found that 60% of female participants said that p***s size made no difference to their s*xual pleasure. If you’re still feeling less than average (which, for the record, is between 5.6-6.2 inches in length when hard), then here are a few tips to make the most of what you’ve got:
Amp up the foreplay: Women love a man who is good with his hands and mouth. If she has several or**sms before the s*x even starts, you’ll still come out on top, no matter what you’re packing.
Switch up the positions: Avoid positions like missionary which might not be as or**smic for her with your size, and instead try cowgirl position, which allows for optimal pe*******on and provides her with control of pace and depth.

10. Sometimes I can’t finish during s*x; what’s wrong with me?
Some guys finish quickly and others can’t finish at all. Delayed ej*******on is when you just can’t seem to ej*****te during in*******se no matter how hard you try and no matter how long you have s*x. You’re there, she’s there, you’re hard, the s*x feels great, and yet an hour might go by and you’re no closer to crossing that finish line.
The frustrating thing about delayed ej*******on is that the majority of men of who suffer from it can still ma******te to completion. It’s only when a partner gets thrown in the mix that they become unwilling marathon men. The causes vary widely, from health issues, to medication, to psychological issues like anxiety or depression. This disorder is still considered somewhat rare, and is not completely understood by psychologists and s*x therapists. But that doesn’t mean you should ignore the problem and continue having in*******se sans or**sms forever. Experiment with mutual ma********on and when you know you’re about to ej*****te you can move inside her and release. If this still doesn’t work and you’re having consistent trouble ej*******ng during s*x, it’s important to get help from a professional. Treatment usually includes some form of therapy, whether by yourself or with your significant other (good news, though: It’s s*x therapy).

What Your S*x Life Will Look Like In 2022, Based On Your Zodiac Sign

Say adieu to 2021, and hello to 2022. Now that we've made it through the year, it's time to start the next one with a bang — literally. In other words, it's time to check out our s*x life horoscope for 2022 because, astrologically, there's a lot going on this upcoming year, and for many signs, the forecast is looking steamy.
If you’re an Air sign, March 6 is going to be an especially good day for your s*x life as Venus is conjunct to Mars in the sign of Aquarius.

For Water signs, April 12 is going to be a dreamy day for you since Jupiter and Neptune will both be in Pisces at the same place at the same time.

If you’re a Fire sign, May 29 is a lucky day for you s*x life as Mars will be meeting Jupiter in Aries. According to Monahan, “Jupiter and Mars together is an insatiable energy.”

Finally, Earth signs will be having a hot summer in 2022. “The Summer Solstice looks steamy with Venus in her sign of rulership and making a harmonious trine to intense Pluto,” Monahan says. “Venus-Pluto energy is all about the ultimate release on a physical and emotional level.”

This year, each zodiac sign will get their fair share of excitement in the s*x and intimacy department. So here's what you can expect in your s*x life in 2022, based on your zodiac sign.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Rams, you’ll experience a big boost of luck and energy from May until October. Jupiter will be moving briefly into your sign, and that aspect favors risk taking. “Go after what you want,” Monahan says. “The Gods will be on your side.” Your ruler Mars goes retrograde in airy Gemini in October, which may mean you’ll be feeling a little off during that time. You may have felt a similar energy in 2020, as that was the last time Mars went retrograde. Fortunately, it won’t be as severe as that one. The plus side is, the first nine months of 2022 are going to be smooth sailing for your s*x life.

Ta**us (April 20 - May 20)
For bulls, you’ll start the year with Venus, your ruling planet, moving backwards in the sky. So, this won’t be the best time to look for new s*xual partners. However, it is a good time to think about what you really want your love and s*x life to look like in the coming year. “Venus is very close to Pluto in the sky for the first few months of the year, offering answers to deeper questions around s*xuality right now,” Monahan says. “Time to dig deep into your unconscious desires.”

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
The first half of the year may start off a little slow for you, Gemini. However, June 22 marks the beginning of a three week period where Venus is in your sign. This energy will make s*x, desire, and love a big focus for you. Mars, the planet that rules over passion and s*x, will go retrograde in your sign in October. According to Monahan, this will be a good opportunity for you to delve deep into your s*xual desires and schedule time for some self-play and exploration.

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
The new year will bring some good energy for you in regards to s*x, Cancer. However, you may be too caught up with your own personal development as Jupiter will be activating your house of higher learning. Even though you’ll be much more focused on yourself, that doesn’t mean that your s*x life will be boring. According to Monahan, July and August look particularly saucy for you, with August 7 being an extra lucky day. “Venus will be transiting in your sign and making a smoochy kiss to Neptune, making this a dreamy day of fantasy,” she says.

Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)
Spring is going to be your season, Leo. March 6 marks the start of a six-week transit of Mars heating up your relationship sector, and Venus will also be making her appearance for a few weeks as well. “Mars meeting Venus in the sky is known as the ‘ardent lover’ placement, so prepare for high-peak s*x drive,” Monahan says. If you find yourself feeling extra frisky at that time, you’ll know why.

Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)
For earthy Virgo, your s*x life will get a wake-up call starting on the first of January and will continue until May. According to Monahan, bountiful Jupiter will be activating your zone of relationships during that time. “Jupiter is all about expansion, fun, and bigger energy, so where do you want to expand your s*x life to?” she says. “Set some lofty goals; you can achieve them.”

Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)
Mars and your ruling planet Venus will be entering your “s*x zone” on March 6. “Venus is said to ‘have her joy’ in this house, meaning much fun and merriment for you,” Monahan says. “With Mars co-present, the focus will be doubly on s*xual matters.” Venus will be hanging around all March long, so expect that month to be really exciting for your s*x life.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)
For Scorpio, passionate Mars enters your opposite sign Ta**us and your relationship sector on July 5. If you’re in a relationship, expect to have a lot of s*x during that time. If you’re single and looking, Mars will also provide you with “gusto to woo and charm” new potential partners. According to Monahan, Jupiter will also be transiting your house of s*x from January to May, and then again in October to December. Overall, 2022 is going to be a good year for you.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)
Archers, you’ll start 2022 off strong with Mars in your sign, activating your passion and libido. “Up until Jan. 24, you’ll be raring to go,” Monahan says. Enjoy this energy while it lasts. Mars will go retrograde in October, and it will be happening in your relationship zone, no less. Your s*x life may take a back seat to other priorities during that time.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)
L***y Mars moves into your sign on Jan. 24 and will amp up your s*x life for six weeks. According to Monahan, “Mars is said to be exalted in Capricorn, meaning it is extremely well placed here and working at optimal level. This is a time when you are naturally in sync with the earthier drives and primal instincts.” Chances are, you’ll be blessed with some really good s*x during the worst part of winter.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)
For Aquarius, Saturn, the planet of restrictions, will be in your sign all year which can put a damper on any fun-related activities. However, there is one date to look out for. On March 6, Mars will be meeting Venus in the sky in your sign and at zero degrees. According Monahan, “Zero degree is a special degree in astrology, meaning there is an extra potent charge to it. Any new desires birthed around this time have a really good chance of working out.”

Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20)
Lucky Pisces will have a great year in 2022. According to Monahan, you’ll have the Great Benefic, Jupiter, in your sign for most of the year. It’ll be co-present with Neptune, your other ruling planet, so the sky’s the limit for you. “Indulge your wildest dreams,” she says. “April 12 is the day they meet at the same exact point in the sky. Take a day off from work. It's far better as a day for lotus-eating and spending in dreamy bliss with your significant other.”

How Your Relationship Will Change In 2022, Based On Your Zodiac Sign

Aries (Mar. 21 – Apr. 19)
If you’re an Aries, expect to start the year off strong. Your ruling planet Mars will be in your sister Fire sign, Sagittarius, which is super harmonious for you. According to Monahan, this aspect promotes action and forward momentum in your relationship. “Fire loves to propel things forward and usually quite fast. If your partner is not on the same page, you may want to veer towards someone who is,” she says.

Ta**us (Apr. 20 – May 20)
For bulls, 2022 is going to be a year of change due to the eclipses falling in the same sign as your Sun. When an eclipse is in your Sun, it usually causes you to look inward to figure out what is and isn’t serving you. “Taureans born around the start of May may have especially itchy feet as Uranus will be going directly over their Sun this year,” Monahan says. “If you’re not breaking up, you’re definitely shaking things up in your relationship.”

Gemini (May 21 – Jun 20)
Geminis don’t always love the idea of commitment, but that will change in 2022. According to Monahan, you’ll start the year off with fiery Mars lighting up your house of partnerships. “New Year's resolutions are a great time to make long term relationship plans,” she says. “This year, the focus will be on commitment and moving things to a deeper place.”

Cancer (Jun. 21 – Jul. 22)
If you’ve been feeling like your love life hasn’t been going anywhere for a long time, that’s because super slow Pluto has been opposing your sign. Fortunately, this is the last full year that Pluto is in a difficult aspect to your Sun. “Pluto-Sun energy tends to bring intense transformational experiences,” Monahan says. “Use this year to look at where you can open up more to your partner and melt into a deeper union.”

Leo (Jul. 23 – Aug. 22)
For you playful Leos, 2022 will be a year where settling down is at the forefront of your mind. Saturn, the planet of restrictions and limitations, will be moving through your relationship house all throughout next year. This means getting more serious about your partner, or if your partner is not stepping up to the commitment, making way for someone who is,” Monahan says.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sep. 22)
If you felt like 2021 was a slow year for love, fortunately that’s all going to change. Early on, lucky Jupiter will be heating up your house of marriage. You may decide you’re ready to take that next big step in your relationship, whether that be moving in together, getting engaged, or maybe even starting a family. According to Monahan, “This is going to be one of the best years in a while for love. Enjoy!”

Libra (Sep. 23 – Oct. 22)
Your ruling planet Venus will be spinning backwards through the sky at the beginning of the year. Because of this, it won’t be the best time for love. You may find yourself having more disagreements with your partner, or they may not be giving you enough attention during this time. If this happens, try not to worry too much. Instead, take the time to think about what’s working in your relationship and what might need more attention. You can start making changes and maybe even take things to the next level once your ruling planet goes direct at the end of January.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
For Scorpio, 2022 is going to be a year for changing things up due to the eclipse cycle falling in your sign. “Eclipses are associated with endings and new beginnings, so dynamics in existing relationships may change,” Monahan says. “However, Scorpio, being ruled by powerful Pluto, the planet of transformation, will find this a year of great growth and potential.” This may be the year that you finally move on from a relationship that hasn’t been doing it for you for a long time.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)
Archers will be feeling pretty lucky in all areas of their life, and love is no exception. According to Monahan, your ruling planet Jupiter is in a very strong placement for most of the year so everything you touch will turn to gold. When it comes to relationships, your private sector is getting activated so there’s a chance your home life may expand in some way. You may decide that it’s time to move to a bigger place with your partner.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)
Venus, the planet of love, will be in your sign until March 6. Although it will be moving retrograde in January, it could still influence you to prioritize your relationship over anything else. According to Monahan, taking things to the next level will be a major focus for you in 2022. If you feel like you’re ready, don’t hesitate. Go for it! The stars have your back.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)
You’ll have restrictive Saturn in your sign all year, so you may be feeling like “the lord of lessons” is always looking over your shoulder. “Saturn can get labeled as a downer, and it's true he's not the life of the party, like Jupiter is” Monahan says. “But Saturn is also about durability, stability, and being there for your partner through thick and thin.” Even if you have those moments where you feel like nothing is going your way, you’ll take comfort in the fact that your partner will be by your side through it all. This will bring you and your partner much closer in 2022.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – Mar. 20)
Your ruling planet Jupiter is in your sign in 2022, which will influence you to be much more loving, compassionate, and giving than you already are. According to Monahan, 2022 will be an excellent year for taking things to the next level. However, both Pisces and Jupiter are bad with boundaries, so make sure you’re giving as well as receiving.

Here's Your Love Life Horoscope For 2022

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
For Aries, May to October is going to be your “sweet spot” for love. “This is when luck-lord Jupiter bounds into your sign, highlighting your self sector and aspecting your 7th house of Relationships,” Monahan says. “Self-esteem and serendipity will be boosted these months.” You’ll be feeling blessed and your self-esteem will be high, so there’s a good chance you’ll have a hot summer full of romance in 2022.

Ta**us (April 20 - May 20)
Quirky Uranus is reaching its half-way mark in Ta**us this year, which is going to bring an interesting energy for bulls. “Mid-points energize a planet more, so Uranus will be granting you license to be very un-Taurean in 2022,” Monahan says. When it comes to love, she recommends opening yourself up to dating outside of your type. “If you tend toward athletic types, go nerdy Jazz aficionado,” she says. “Uranus energy wants you to go against the grain and escape your Bullish comfort zone.”

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Do what you need to do in terms of love and dating early on in the year, Gemini. According to Monahan, the last quarter of the year may be a little challenging. “Belligerent Mars goes retrograde in your sign on Oct. 30,” she says. “Mars retrogrades are associated with stymied energy in relationships, so things may slow down towards the end of the year.” Her best advice? Go hard during the winter, spring, and summer months. Once Halloween comes, just relax and let things happen.

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Cancers love being at home, but if you’re looking for love, be open to the possibilities of getting away. “With Jupiter-in-Pisces making rogue waves in your travel sector for most of the year, book a trip to find luck in love,” Monahan says. “Think someplace oceanic, since Pisces energy is being highlighted.”

Leo (July 23 - August 22)
In 2022, single Leos will be ready to find someone to settle down with. If you’re in a relationship, you’ll want to take things to the next level. According to Monahan, love has a more serious tone for you this year with Saturn, the planet of hard work and discipline, hanging out in your relationship zone. “You will gravitate toward partners and people who put you or the relationship first,” she says. “This can also be a year of making things formal: engagements, moving in, and the like. Saturn loves formalities, contracts, structure.”

Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Lucky you, Virgo! According to Monahan, your sign has one of the best outlooks for love in 2022 as Jupiter, the planet of luck and expansion, will be hanging out in your relationship zone. “Expect to connect more to loved ones or to bring new loved ones into your tidy heart,” she says. “Expansive Jupiter will be looking to enrich your life with splashes of color and romance.”

Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Libras love being in love more than anything else, and 2022 looks good for commitment. According to Monahan, serious Saturn will be making a helpful trine to your Sun all year long. “Saturn loves longevity, so you’ll be thinking long-term more,” she says. “The rings of Saturn may equal wedding rings.” Love will be in the air at the beginning of March as Venus and Mars and will be linking up in your fellow Air sign, Aquarius. If you’re single, get out there. You never know who you might meet. If you’re in a relationship, expect a lot of love and affection.

Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
Scorpios tend to take dating and relationships really seriously. While that won’t really change, you’ll be open to having a lot more fun in 2022. “Not only are the eclipses falling in your sign this year (and eclipses always bring in new energy) but Jupiter, begetter of expansion, prosperity, and bounty, transits your house of romance,” Monahan says. “This is a great year to have more light-hearted fun.” You may meet someone who brings out a different side of you, one that you really like.

Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
When your ruling planet Jupiter is having a good year, you’re bound to have a good year as well. According to Monahan, Jupiter will be helping you out a lot in 2022. “Jupiter wants to enlarge your world, in particular your home sector,” she says. “Many Sagittarius will move in with their significant other or take things to the next level. When, risk-loving Jupiter is in a strong position like this, it usually means that more than ever it is good for you to take a gamble on love and commitment.”

Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
For Capricorn, Venus will be hanging out in your sign for the first quarter of the year. When that happens, you can expect a lucky time for love. “The start of the year may be more about looking back to look forward, as Venus will be retrograde during for a short time, but the planet of love goes direct on Jan. 28.” From the end of January to early March, you may find yourself meeting someone new if you’re single, or connecting with your partner on a deeper level if you’re in a relationship.

Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
For Aquarius, Saturn will be in your sign which can make love feel a little more restrictive. If you’re looking for a relationship, you may find that you’re not meeting the right people. If you’re already in an established situation, you may feel like your relationship isn’t going anywhere. Instead of pushing for any major changes, Monahan suggests getting clear on your long-term emotional plans. This is not a year for settling — it’s for goal setting,” she says. “Saturn loves a good strategy.”

Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
In 2022, Pisces is going to have a lot of luck in matters of the heart. In fact, Monahan says, “Great romantic potential is on the horizon for you with your ruling planet, Jupiter, in your sign for most of the year.” It will be a prime time to forge deep connections with new people; it’s not a year for “shallow waters.” According to Monahan, you’ll be digging a little deeper to find connections that will last. For Pisces, 2022 is about finding the real thing. With Jupiter giving you a helping hand, there’s a good chance it may happen.

Why Your Partner Might Turn Down S*x, Based On Their Sign

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
By nature, rams are honest and direct. If they say they’ve had a long day, you can usually trust that work really is the reason why they’re not feeling the s*xy vibes you’re putting out. However, if they’re consistently turning you down, it’s worth paying attention to. According to Garbis, if an Aries feels blocked or stuck in a relationship, they may start freezing their partner out. “They might withhold s*x as a passive aggressive measure to tell their partner that they’d rather be somewhere else,” Garbis says. “They’d do so to force the other person to act and either change things up or leave altogether. An underlying feeling of vulnerability, that their sense of self is threatened, may cause this defense.”

Ta**us (April 20 - May 20)
Like their fellow Earth signs, Ta**us is very hardworking and ambitious. Since they’re ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, money, and luxury, material possessions are very important to them. If they’re refusing s*x, their priorities may be concentrated on work. “Ta**us will use wealth and status as a way to attract a partner and may be so focused on outer appearances that they overlook the deeper intimacies waiting for them,” Garbis says. In other cases, Ta**us may use a lack of s*x as punishment if their partner makes them angry. They might refuse s*x in order to get their partner to do what they want like quit a bad habit.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
In general, airy Gemini can be tough to decipher because they’re so multi-dimensional. Sometimes what they show the world isn’t a perfect reflection of what’s going on inside their head. If they’re refusing s*x, they may be obsessing over something they don’t want to tell you about. “They may be worrying about work or the relationship, but don’t want to say anything for fear that they may say the wrong thing,” she says.

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Cancers are highly sensitive Water signs whose moods change all the time. Even a harmless joke can deeply offend them. So if they’re not interested in getting intimate, you may have done something that bothered them. According to Garbis, Cancer signs will also reject s*x if they don’t feel emotionally safe in the relationship. This might happen if you just started dating, and you’re still in the getting-to-know-you stage.

Leo (July 23 - August 22)
In astrology, Leo is ruled by the Sun, which governs the Self. If Leo is not interested in s*x, they may be a crisis of confidence. “They may be feeling insecure about themselves and are shutting down out of intense shame,” Garbis says. “Leo has an inflated ego, but when they are feeling insecure it’s like a tidal wave of depression. This checking out could be a call for attention and compliments.”

Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Virgo rules the 6th House of Health and Service, so they’re very conscious about living a healthy lifestyle. If they aren’t interested in s*x, there’s a chance they may not be feeling well. According to Garbis, they may be physically ill, or their mind is elsewhere, preoccupied with a work problem or family tension. This another zodiac sign who will most likely be honest with you about why they’re not in the mood if asked, so shy away from the question if you’re concerned.

Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Libras are Air signs who tend to make their relationships their whole world. They’re ruled by the 7th House of Partnerships, so they put a lot of effort into making sure their partner is happy. If they’re turning down s*x, Garbis says, they may be projecting their fears onto their partner. “They will most likely withhold s*x because they think their partner doesn’t want it, is avoiding them, or isn’t interested,” she says. They might also refuse s*x if they’re feeling disengaged from the relationship and are ready to look elsewhere.

Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
Scorpios are known for being very mysterious because they keep things to themselves. According to Garbis, there are a million different reasons why a Scorpio would turn their partner down. In some cases, they may do it as a way to play mind games. Scorpios like being in control, and refusing s*x is one way they can gain the upper hand. On the other hand, they might be repressing the strong feelings that come with s*x. “There is an intensity to the act that’s overwhelming them so they avoid it,” says Garbis. “They may deny themselves pleasure for fear it will take over and disrupt their life.”

Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
Sagittarius is the type of sign who’s always down for a good time. Making a commitment isn’t a big priority for them, but they definitely enjoy the physical benefits of being in a couple. Because of that, refusing s*x could be a sign that there are problems in the relationship. According to Garbis, Sagittarius may feel like the relationship isn’t working or it’s something that just doesn’t interest them anymore. “There’s nothing left for them and they may be longing to escape,” she says.

Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Capricorn, the zodiac’s goat, is known for prioritizing work over s*x and relationships. For them, s*x is something they do to unwind. If they have a big project or deadline looming, there’s a good chance they’ll be uninterested in s*x until they’ve finished everything on their to-do list. According to Garbis, another big reason for why they’d turn their partner down is resentment. If they don’t fully trust their partner or if they feel like they’re being controlled, they will shut down any attempts at intimacy.

Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
When mysterious Aquarius isn’t in the mood, they may give you an idea as to why, but won’t tell you the whole story. “They may be saving themselves until the time is ‘right,’ with ‘right’ being a whole host of criteria that needs to be met,” Garbis says. “It could be that they’re waiting for the right time, right place, or right person. If they’re feeling uncomfortable about getting physically intimate, it may be because they fear an emotional connection.”

Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Pisces is known for being the zodiac’s hopeless romantic; they’ll do whatever it takes to make a relationship last. According to Garbis, Pisces tend to be apprehensive about making moves in a partnership for fear of change. “They may worry a lot that the relationship is ending and may take strange actions to preserve it, or worse, sabotage it,” she says. Refusing s*x may be their way of gaining some control in the relationship. This might happen especially if they feel like their partner is pulling away. Pisces is also a highly sensitive Water sign who gets their feelings hurt easily. If their partner says something they don’t like, Pisces may shut down.

What It Means When Your Partner Ignores You, Based On Their Sign

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
As a Fire sign, Aries is one of the most direct signs in the zodiac. When an Aries is upset, there’s a good chance they’ll let you know right away. The same applies if they’re no longer interested in a relationship. Aries would rather cut ties completely than deal with unnecessary drama. So when Aries does go silent, there’s definitely something going on.

“Aries is a known for being hotheaded, or an outward sign more prone to erupting with passion or other big emotions,” astrologer Clarisse Monahan tells Bustle. “When the Ram goes silent, beware of subterranean emotions brewing, like inarticulate, pre-verbal rage, either directed toward themselves or someone else.”

Ta**us (April 20 - May 20)
Ta**us is the type to bottle up their negative emotions. According to Monahan, “The phrase ‘leading a bull by its horns’ applies to the silence of Ta**us. They need you to pull what's bothering them out, and they will resist talking.” The bull is known for being the most stubborn sign in the zodiac. They’re the type to believe that their partner should be able to intuit why they’re angry. So, if they’re not speaking to you, there’s a good chance they feel you’ve wronged them in some way.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Gabby, Mercury-ruled Gemini is a social butterfly. They love meeting new people, they’re all about having fun, and they tend to go with the flow. According to Monahan, Geminis get an “erotic charge” from chatting — especially when they’re talking to someone they’ve never met before. However, Geminis are notorious for losing interest very quickly. “When they go silent on you, it could indicate that their minds have alit on some other object of desire,” Monahan says.

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Cancer the crab is the queen of passive aggressive behavior. If you do something to hurt their feelings, they’ll shut down and retreat into their shell. Cancer is also the sign of home and family, so they’re very protective of their space and the people they love. According to Montúfar, Cancer natives will also go quiet on you if you talk bad or hurt someone they really care about.

Leo (July 23 - August 22)
Leo, the zodiac’s show-stopping lion, will stop talking to you as a way to get your attention. According to Montúfar, Leos are very generous with their time and energy in relationships. When they’re not feeling seen, or if they feel like they’re not receiving the same amount of effort as they put in, they may suddenly stop talking to you. A lot of groveling is in order if you want to get back on their good side.

Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Virgo is another Mercury-ruled sign that values communication. If they feel like something is off in the relationship, there’s a good chance they’ll let you know. They’re big problem-solvers, and will want to work with you to fix whatever it is that’s wrong. However, Virgos are big on rules. “When the established ‘rules’ in the relationship are being somewhat broken, they will feel like they can ghost without having to give an explanation,” Montúfar says.

Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Libra is another one of those signs that will stay quiet when something is off. Their sign is represented by the scales, so they’re all about harmony and keeping the peace. However, there’s only so much a person can take. “When their sense of balance is being thrown off-kilter, Libras will go silent,” Montúfar says. According to her, Libras are some of the most famous “ghosts” of the zodiac. Confrontation isn’t really their thing.

Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
In general, Scorpio is a pretty quiet sign. They’re known for being brooding and mysterious, and they prefer to listen and observe. Because of this, they won’t always tell you when something is wrong. If angry or upset, they tend to get a bit mean, and will likely regret their words later. When a Scorpio goes completely silent on you, there’s a good chance that you may have hurt them deeply. For instance, betrayal is the worst for the scorpion. If they find out someone talked behind their back or cheated, Montúfar says they may never speak to that person ever again.

Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
Sagittarius is a very go-with-the-flow sign. They’re typically able to brush things off very easily, and rarely ever hold a grudge. They’re known for being brutally honest in relationship, so if there’s a problem, you will know about it. As the freedom-loving wanderer of the zodiac, it takes a really special person to get them to commit. Once they find that person, they will make an effort to be the best partner they can be, despite always being on-the-go. So, if they suddenly go silent, they may feel like their partner no longer has anything to offer them, Montúfar says.

Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Capricorns are very ambitious, and work tends to be at the very top of their priority list. Even if they love their partner, their relationship will have to come second to their goals. Because of that, they’ll only spend time with people they actually see a future with. If they feel like their time is being wasted, they’ll go silent. According to Montúfar, “Productive Cappies are on a mission and don’t want to waste their precious time, even when it comes to relationships.”

Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
Aquarius is another sign who values their freedom above everything else. They’re very independent, and get easily turned off by people who are too clingy or needy. “When their freedom and sense of self are being compromised, they will go silent,” Montúfar says. “Feeling ‘caged’ is literally an Aquarian’s nightmare.” This is one sign that has no problem ghosting a partner if they feel like a relationship isn’t working.

Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Like Cancer, Pisces is a very sensitive Water sign. They’re Neptune-ruled, so they tend to live in the fantasyland in their head, and they view relationships through rose-colored glasses. They like to believe their partner is perfect, and hope their partner feels the same way about them. According to Montúfar, Pisces might go silent if you call them out on their behavior. “Natives from this sign are sweet but don’t usually like having to deal with consequences,” she says. “Call them out and they will be gone, baby gone!”
