Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, May 16th
Aries

The first half of the day is good for tending to practical matters, dear Aries, as you are inclined to want to settle things before moving on to other activities. From early afternoon forward, relationships come into sharper focus. Activities with a companion fare best. You are entering a ten-week cycle today in which you have a building interest in projects, learning, and communications. While you may be a little detached on social levels as you throw a lot of attention into your interests and work, this is a strong period for making significant headway. Others are also drawn to your advice and intelligence during this cycle — you are taken seriously!
Taurus

The first half of the day tends to support your personal appeal and visibility, dear Taurus. Expressing yourself in creative ways tends to win over using words right now! From early afternoon forward, you are more inclined to want to do something practical, useful, or helpful. You can have a call to service now. A new ten-week cycle begins today that brings a stronger focus on making your life more secure. You can be especially focused on earthy, comforting, and natural activities that help you to heal and cleanse. Good energy is with you for applying yourself to recent projects and money-making goals. This theme will continue to build as planets begin moving out of your sign and into your resources sector, beginning with the Sun on Friday.
Gemini

The Moon continues to transit an introspective, play-it-safe sector of your chart until early afternoon, dear Gemini, after which you’re far more ready to come out of your shell and take some small personal risks. Vesta enters your sign today, and the coming ten weeks will be strong for work, particularly of the independent variety. This is also a good period for commitment to a personal project or goal. This is a time for going your own way and for independent work – your heart is truly into your work and projects. Your dedication and commitment are more obvious to others, and you may be recognized for these traits, although there can be times when you’re so focused on your needs and projects that people in your life feel a little left out.
Cancer

The day can begin busily, dear Cancer, but pleasantly so. Even thoughMercury is retrograde, you’re getting your message across well right now. Early afternoon, the homebody in you emerges, and you’re likely to crave some comfort. Even so, you are inclined to stay busy. You are entering a ten-week cycle today that can bring benefits from working behind the scenes, or in which you are working more determinedly and happily on your own. You may need more solitude in order to get an important project done, and you have a stronger need to regroup and recoup your energy. What you do in private, the services and support you provide, and the emotions you feel are all powerful and in fact are at the heart of much of the things you do in the rest of the world. This is certain to increase later in May and into June.
Leo

This morning is good for applying intuition quite successfully to business, financial thinking, or a pet project, dear Leo. Later today is stronger for connecting, sharing, and creating. Today, Vesta enters your solar eleventh house, where it will transit for the next ten weeks. This is a good cycle for working with others towards a common goal, or simply for working towards a cherished dream independently. Focusing on long-term happiness goals is, in fact, healing at this time. There is a slight risk that you might become a little too wrapped up in these projects at the expense of other life “departments”. However, this is a good time for working on revived plans and dreams. Take the time to reflect about priorities in terms of time spent networking.
Virgo

Today, the Moon continues to transit your sign until early afternoon, dear Virgo, harmonizing with the Sun and supporting your ability to express your energies in a flowing manner. People tend to cooperate with you. The Moon’s move into your resources sector brings a more practical outlook to the second half of the day. Vesta begins influencing the sector of your chart that is in charge of your work and responsibilities today, and will continue to do so for ten weeks. This can serve to boost motivation levels and improve your focus on satisfying work and goals. You are more patient, focused, and persistent in the pursuit of your goals during this cycle, and you could be doing a lot of organizing, leading, and managing.
Libra

With the Moon continuing to transit your private solar twelfth house until early afternoon, dear Libra, you are inclined to need to hide away or take a pause that refreshes on an emotional level, after which the Moon emerges in your sign, stimulating a strong need to be acknowledged and connected. Expressing yourself can be especially satisfying in the second half of the day. You are entering a cycle today that lasts ten weeks and that helps you to focus and concentrate on what truly matters. Prioritizing comes a little more easily during this cycle. This can be an excellent cycle in which to pursue educational and cultural interests with more commitment and passion.
Scorpio

There is continued focus on relating and connecting today, dear Scorpio, but from early afternoon forward, you’re in need of some down time with the Moon moving into your soul sector for a couple of days. Take any opportunity to heal, renew, and refresh on emotional levels before you begin a new lunar cycle on Thursday. A cycle that begins today and runs for ten weeks brings wonderful energy for work, research, and self-renewal. This can be a time of strong dedication to a special project or pursuit, and you may find that you’re so motivated and intrigued with what you’re doing that you work tirelessly. There might also be a strong commitment to understanding yourself and your inner motivations during this cycle, and healing energy is brought to your intimate world. Counseling or therapy can be especially rewarding now.
Sagittarius

Good energy is with you for dealing with work and routine matters in the first half of the day, dear Sagittarius. You are likely to feel better about yourself once you’ve taken care of a responsibility or two. From early afternoon forward, you’re more inclined to want to relax, although you can also enjoy time with friends. You are entering a cycle today that puts a lot of focus on taking special care of your relationships, and this trend lasts ten weeks. There can be someone special who helps motivate you to set important work or projects in motion. It will be important that you stay active in a partnership, or you could feel frustrated. An active purpose or focus can help improve your relationships. Try not to put so much time and energy into relationships that you ignore other life departments, or your own needs.
Capricorn

You thrive on a feeling of freedom in the first half of the day, dear Capricorn, after which you’re inclined to seek out the comfort of rules. It’s a good day for getting a better sense of your priorities –and enjoying doing it! A new influence with you today and for the coming ten weeks is strong for bringing more order and structure to your daily routines, for committing to a work project or to a health and wellness program, and for truly enjoying the work you do or services you provide. There may be a new and improved health plan, routine, or work focus coming together as you go forward. Watch for over-work, which can be counterproductive.
Aquarius

There is continued focus on your deeper needs and feelings until early afternoon, dear Aquarius, after which you begin to crave more light and space on an emotional level. It’s a good time to reach out to others, learn, and expand your mind. With Vesta moving into your creative sector today, and staying there for ten weeks, you can benefit from a more dedicated, committed approach to creative projects, love relationships, children, and hobbies. Deep satisfaction can come through your dedication to a creative project or relationship, and you can find yourself putting a lot of energy into these things. As long as you stop short of doing this to the point of obsession, this can be a great time for feeling focused and purposeful. Creative pursuits, and time alone spent on expressive or leisure activities, can be felt to be healing.
Pisces

There is continued favorable energy for connecting, learning, and sharing in the first half of the day, dear Pisces. You tend to crave more intimate connections or a deeper understanding of things from early afternoon forward with the Moon transiting your intimacy and sharing sector. A cycle in which more dedicated focus to home and family can be very healing and satisfying begins today and continues for ten weeks. You might be working from home, or working on the home, and this can be rewarding. Building your closest relationships and dedicating yourself to family or domestic concerns can help you feel more secure and confident. With the Sun moving into your home and family sector on Friday, you’ll have even more reason to turn your stronger attention to your domestic and personal life.
