Your Daily Horoscopes for May 27th

The independent Aries Moon encourages us to express ourselves, and her conjunction with electric Uranus adds a sense of urgency to our needs. However, being direct isn’t necessarily the fastest way to reach satisfaction, since the Moon’s square to shrewd Pluto increases the emotional complexity and her opposition to austere Saturn decreases the support we receive from others. Meanwhile, an eccentric Mercury-Uranus semisquare wires us for change.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You have a short temper today with the Moon in reactionary Aries, and your shoot-from-the-hip delivery could turn a sticky situation into a real problem. Fortunately, a little common sense will go a long way to prevent a meltdown over a misunderstanding that won’t matter much in the long run. If you get caught up in the heat of the moment and have to express your feelings, at least minimize the potential damage by accepting responsibility for your role in the current situation.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Although you may be required to work with someone whose long-term goals are not the same as yours, at least try to see things from an open-minded perspective. Rather than letting your frustration explode in an unpleasant interaction now, take the high road by acknowledging that your differences don’t have to impact your cooperation in a negative way. You can still be true to yourself today while putting patience ahead of insecurity.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

An ongoing imbalance of power could rear its ugly head today. You might feel as if others are secretly working against you, yet no one comes out and says anything directly. Your best response to this uncomfortable situation is to remain as optimistic as you can, even if you grow more irritated throughout the day. Relying on your natural flexibility and sidestepping the conversations you want to avoid now should ultimately work in your favor.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Expressing negativity isn’t always appropriate, yet showing your anger today could be a sign of strength. Sometimes your first impulse is to emotionally withdraw, leading to a passive-aggressive reaction. However, your stress can quickly push you to the edge now, provoking you to lose control if you aren’t aware of your own inner process. Denying your feelings only frustrates you faster, so share your concerns without getting hooked by your attachment to what other people think.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Although you may not like what’s happening today, you probably don’t believe that the current problem is really yours. Nevertheless, from a cosmic perspective, everyone is performing a role in your personal drama and it’s annoying if the actors in your script are working against your efforts. Even if others seem disgruntled, keep bringing your focus back to your feelings. Ironically enough, once you take responsibility for your part, the erratic energy should begin to settle down.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

A stressed-out workmate may not act nicely toward you today, yet it’s still wise to discuss what’s going on, rather than avoiding confrontation. But there’s no need to force the issue because the truth will come to the surface now with or without your intervention. But if you decide to push things along by talking about someone’s irritating behavior, be direct and get right to the point. Properly considered words can effectively act as healing agents if delivered with good intentions and kindness.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Others are hard to read today. You may go out of your way to be nice to someone, but your amicable behavior seems to increase your frustration and your uncertainty. The friendlier you are, the worse you feel now. Trust your instincts, even if you don’t have the facts to support them. But don’t start a fight without a real opponent; shadowboxing won’t lead to a solution and will only tired you out. Wait until you have more information before confronting anyone with the truth.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may want to do your job in a new and different way today, but the dynamics seem more complicated because something or someone is blocking your path. Powerful emotions are lurking just under the surface and you’re concerned that they could sidetrack your day. Although you might get drawn into a conflict if you’re not careful, you would be wiser to keep your nose clean for now. Wait until the intensity settles down before shaking up the status quo.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

All would be fine today, but someone may not be playing according to your rules. It feels as if a raincloud is moving in on your big game, even though it’s still sunny. Don’t let fear dampen your enthusiasm. Instead of trying to outrun bad weather, head off developing problems by facing negativity directly. Avoiding blame now will have a positive impact on the final outcome.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

The feisty Aries Moon battles with unrelenting Pluto, raising concerns about how your personal story is unfolding and who controls your destiny. Your strong resolve can block out some of the tension, but purposefully remaining unaware of it only deepens the problem. It’s counterproductive to avoid conflict today, so bring any differences out into the open. Confrontation may be inevitable now, but healthy compromise offers a lasting solution to the current stress.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your life is a bit hectic today and things could fall apart unless you pay close attention to your immediate environment. You prefer to play your cards when you’re ready, but may be forced to play them according to someone else’s strategy. Don’t panic; it may be smarter to walk away from the table and return to the game after you have collected your thoughts. Your strategy will improve when your feelings are not being pulled all over the place.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Being caught up in a wave of social activism may not help your personal life, but it can still be a good thing. If your compassion leads you to spending time with people who think like you, go ahead and ride the surge while it lasts. However, this might be a short-lived passion for you, even if it’s a lifelong commitment for others. Don’t resist your feelings, your current journey can teach you something important about your place in the world.

Your Daily Horoscopes for May 26th

Today’s psychic Pisces Moon sensitizes us to vibrations that are so subtle we cannot even tell where our feelings come from. We drift further into our fantasies as Venus, the planet of personal love, forms a metaphysical quintile to Neptune, the planet of spiritual love. Yet we still strive to be practical because of a grounding Mercury-Saturn alignment. The Moon’s shift into impulsive Aries at 8:36 pm EDT can fire us up for an exciting evening.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You may feel a bit anxious today because you know something significant is going to happen, yet you don’t know what it is. You might actually be in between two events and already anticipating the next one before you even process your most recent experience. Instead of rushing into the future, allow yourself the luxury of floating now without feeling guilty because you’re not doing enough.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You may be a bit worried about money today, yet it’s hard to tell whether your fears are based on a difficult memory or on what’s happening now. Either way, it’s wise to try to separate real concerns from imagined ones. Instead of keeping everything to yourself, share your thoughts with a trusted friend, but don’t pretend that you have all the answers. A heartfelt discussion can help you put things in proper perspective.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You wish that you could know what everyone at work is thinking now, but your own thoughts may be so noisy that you can’t get past them. It’s hard enough if you are distracted by your daydreams when there’s a lot to be done in the real world, but it gets even more complicated when you talk yourself into believing irrational fears. Remember, your current perceptions may be colored by a hurtful memory, so don’t take yourself too seriously today.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

On one hand, you’re quite sure that you know where you’re going and how you can get there. On the other hand, you might be suspicious that you are missing something important and are afraid of becoming a victim of your own overconfidence. In reality, your smartest strategy is to take the middle road. Positive thinking can be very helpful if you don’t push it to an extreme.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may feel some resistance from your friends when you share your plans with them today. Or, you might experience a lack of support from your workmates. Either way, consider that you may have lower self-confidence than usual, which could be a contributing factor to the current situation. Try to postpone any major decisions that affect your long-term relationships until your self-esteem returns to normal.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

It’s hard to know what you should do today because useful information seems elusive. It’s usually easy for you to discern real facts from fabricated opinions through your skillful analysis. However, the fine line between objective data and subjective propaganda is obscured by someone who has an agenda that may be different from yours. Doing extra research now is an intelligent strategy that can save you from an embarrassing situation.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You can turn a difficult situation into a beautiful scenario today as attractive Venus aligns with imaginative Neptune. Although this cosmic connection heightens your creativity, it also makes your daily routine more challenging. Pursuing artistic endeavors now is an ideal application of this magical energy, but you may be discouraged when you’re pulled back into your mundane workday existence. However, acknowledging the difference between these two realms will help you to move between them as necessary.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may not be very accepting of the lack of structure in your life today because you don’t have a simple way of measuring your current progress. Unfortunately, your frustration grows when others give you feedback that seems to be based more upon their subjective biases than on current reality. Letting go of control isn’t usually easy for you, but now it could turn an awkward situation into a well-earned break.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may feel let down by a workmate today, but your disappointment might actually stem from unrealistic expectations. Although someone might truly flake on you now, it normally wouldn’t bother you so much. Your obsessive need for stability at work can tempt you to lean on others for more support than they can possibly give to you. Acknowledging that they may not share your agenda allows you to minimize your harsh judgment, making it easier on everyone involved.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

It’s tricky for you to balance your need to be creative today with your more practical side. Fortunately, setting sensible goals early in the day enables you to have confidence about reaching them and relieves you of unnecessary stress. Once you feel more relaxed you will be able to let your imagination guide your work instead of fearfully measuring your production moment by moment.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may not feel very social today, even though you must interact with others in order to get your work done. However, it’s not necessary to waste your time on frivolous conversations. You don’t have to reveal your feelings unless you trust the other person enough to want to share what’s on your mind. Keeping your emotions to yourself on the job is your personal choice and need not affect your performance in any way.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You are in your watery element today as long as no one pressures you to make a hasty decision. It’s easy for you to float along in your dreams while also doing what’s required in the real world. However, you’re not yet ready to let go of your fantasies. Simply inform others that you will give them your answer tomorrow when your clarity returns.

Your Daily Horoscopes for May 25th

The dreamy Pisces Moon increases our fantasies and encourages us to escape from reality. We are tempted to act impulsively on our unconventional ideas because the Sun’s early morning sextile to wild and crazy Uranus provokes risky behavior. But radical actions will have sobering ramifications when reckless Mars forms an ill-adjusted quincunx with karmic Saturn. We must learn from our mistakes and do whatever is necessary to be responsible.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your planetary ruler Mars prompts you to initiate action without considering the consequences, while taskmaster Saturn enforces a very different set of rules today. You must justify every single thing you set out to do now or circumstances could prevent you from accomplishing your goals. Unfortunately, even with a well-conceived strategy, it’s still not easy to get much done. Paradoxically, it’s counterproductive to push so hard, so ease up and take cues from those around you.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Subconscious drives increase your desire to act decisively today, but common sense tells you to use self-restraint in all that you do. It’s difficult to find the right amount of force as you attempt to make your dreams come true, yet turning them into reality can be very rewarding. Avoiding unseen problems is easier if you just make time to analyze your options before doing something you might regret.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You may be confused because it seems as if everyone thinks you should be handling things differently. However, none of their ideas feel exactly right to you. Don’t question your own judgment today; others might not be able to see your truth. Self-doubt is unproductive; go ahead and trust your intuition now, even if it is contrary to the well-intended advice you receive.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Your confidence is high as you imagine what you will be doing later in the day, but your actual actions may be thwarted by circumstances beyond your control. Unfortunately, you might have already made bold commitments that you don’t want to break, leaving you little time to achieve your objectives. Although your optimism will probably wane, it doesn’t make sense to play the role of a victim. Stand your ground; do as much as you possibly can today and save the rest for tomorrow.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The spontaneous Sun-Uranus sextile tempts you to skip out on your obligations, but avoiding your responsibilities now is not a smart move. Instead of following a whim today, it makes a lot more sense to cool your heels and resign yourself to delaying the fun until you have completed your objectives for the day. But if you meet too much resistance, try backing off just a little bit. Pushing against an immovable obstacle won’t be productive and could even tire you out.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You have a real action plan today and you’re eager to get started. But someone may not be as supportive as you wish, making success an uphill battle. It might even seem as if others are purposefully working to sabotage your efforts, but it’s not helpful to get sidetracked by this kind of drama. Instead of worrying about anyone else now, just show up and do the best you can. If your strategy makes sense, your determination will gradually overcome the resistance.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You may feel as if every step you take is being blocked today, but your attitude might just be the result of your frustration. If you are unhappy about what you are currently doing, suppressing your disappointment is not healthy. Avoiding your feelings can trick your psyche into unconsciously seeking out the negativity that you have pushed into the shadows. Rather than struggling to get your message across, consider what you need to learn before trying again.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

If you are annoyed with someone’s obstinacy today, go ahead and bring your feelings out into the open. If you don’t, a small irritation could begin to fester and become a serious problem. However, caution is also advised if you decide to reveal your current frustration because you may make matters worse if you blame a friend or associate for your dilemma. Minimize your anxiety and relieve the tension by sharing your inner process without judging anyone else.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your impatience could create tension if you demand too much from someone today. You might even try to control things by exercising more authority. Unfortunately, this ineffective management style could create problems. It is wiser to be honest and express your vulnerability by letting others know about your areas of concern. However, it’s not useful to expect them to fix your problems, but a healthy exchange of ideas can reveal something important you didn’t know.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your methodical approach to work may not be as effective as you wish today, and this could annoy you so much that you grow angry. It takes a lot to knock you off track, yet now the little things pile up until they seem like a crisis. It’s more important to build a stable foundation on which to stand than trying to reach your goals overnight. Don’t get distracted by your fear of failure; instead, just pay attention to the ground beneath your feet and the task right in front of you.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Someone may be making demands that require you to adjust your calendar today, but all your efforts seem to be for naught. Once the fabric of your day begins to unravel, nothing you do seems to put it all back together again. You could consume a lot of energy trying to reestablish your sense of order, but it’s probably smarter to let the house of cards fall. Once the dust has settled you’ll be able to recreate your schedule better than ever.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

It’s unnerving if a good friend becomes overly critical today. Although you are rightfully upset by this apparent betrayal, it’s likely that you’re expecting too much. Rather than stubbornly holding on to your previous assumptions, relax your grip on the situation by temporarily releasing your attachment to your goals. Ironically, as you let go, others may begin to show the encouragement that they were previously withholding.

Daily Horoscopes for Sunday, May 15

General Daily Horoscope

The ambivalent Libra Moon shifts into emotionally complex Scorpio at 12:31 pm EDT, transforming our diplomatic attitudes into rigid perspectives. Fortunately, friendly Venus and chatty Mercury enter easygoing Taurus later in the day, enabling us to be more receptive to enjoying the present moment. Although we may experience some stress, the overall intensity level settles down, allowing us to process the surprising changes of the past few weeks.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Even if you take the time to share your point of view with those close to you, they may not acknowledge your feelings. Apparently, you might not be communicating as clearly as you think or, maybe, someone else just can’t see beyond his or her assumptions. You could inadvertently increase everyone’s frustration level if you keep trying to say the same thing. It’s probably more sensible to start over again in a day or two. Your chances of being heard are better once your emotions have settled.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You might hold back your feelings if something goes wrong today because you don’t want to stir up any more trouble. Although you believe that your strategy is based on common sense, your unexpressed feelings can create fallout of their own. Someone might think you are hard to get along with because you’re not participating in the discussion. It’s best in the long run to say what’s on your mind without placing blame on anyone else.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You are quite willing to express your feelings of attraction now to someone you admire. You could be inclined to take care of a close friend, because doing things for others might be the safest way for you to share your love today. Even if your intentions are good, allow plenty of emotional space so you don’t smother anyone with your need for affection.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Your frustration with others today may ultimately stem from your own discomfort. You would like to be more emotionally detached so your feelings don’t interfere with having a good time. Unfortunately, intellectualizing your reactions by telling everyone that you’re okay won’t necessarily work, because you don’t sound like you mean it. When you realize that you don’t need to share your opinions on everything that happens, you’ll be free from projecting your fears onto anyone else.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

It’s difficult to keep your emotions from influencing your objectivity, even if you recognize that it’s smarter to stay neutral today. Ironically, you are more flexible than you sound because your words convey a high level of certainty that makes you seem unwilling to negotiate. Be as open as possible and let others know you haven’t made up your mind and that you’re willing to listen to their point of view.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You find it challenging to demonstrate your authority today because others want you to justify your choices. Unfortunately, you don’t share the same need for closure now and you’re content to sit on the fence as a conversation unfolds. You’re eager to take either position just to keep the discussion going, but you might not be ready to make up your mind. Don’t let anyone else’s sense of urgency force you to give your final answer until you’re ready.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your feelings swing like a pendulum today as you try to get comfortable with your changing moods. But even if you do find peace with the rise and fall of your emotional tides, your inconsistency may grate on others. You might try to convince someone that you aren’t attached to any particular outcome, only to get angry later in the day when things don’t go your way. Exhibiting a bit of self-control will help now because losing your temper won’t make anyone happy.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

The Moon’s opposition to four planets and her return to your sign indicate that you could get bent out of shape if you cannot find the peace and quiet that you want. Taking some time off sounds like a good idea, but the demands of others might make your escape impossible. Isolation can be reassuring if it offers you the space you need to think about an unresolved issue, without having to report every thought back to someone else. Enjoy your solitude when it finally arrives.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You are pulled between extremes today — doing the casual social thing and digging deeper to get to the bottom of a spiritual dilemma. Thankfully, you are able to play both ends of the spectrum now, without having to choose one over the other until you are ready. Give yourself permission to respond to circumstances and make the most of each moment, whether you are enjoying the company of your friends or solving the mysteries of the universe.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Allow extra time today to acknowledge that your life is less complicated, even if it doesn’t appear that it will last. It’s wise to receive the good will that comes your way now, although you might not get much work accomplished. If someone special wants to nurture you, don’t put up a fight. Accepting love with an open heart is the right thing to do, even if it makes you feel a bit uncomfortable at first.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your feelings take you on a journey today and there really isn’t much to be gained by resisting the sojourn. Fortunately, you won’t cause any harm by just floating off into Fantasyland. It’s crucial for you to escape from the routine now, even if you can’t really go anywhere at all. If you keep up appearances by quietly fulfilling your responsibilities, you’ll be able to travel in your mind wherever you please.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may attempt to sidestep your emotions now, at least long enough to dig into a complex problem. However, you can’t separate your opinions from the answers you seek. Being aware of your bias, though, can make all the difference in the world. There’s no need for you to pretend that you are just a rational scientist when, in fact, you are also a passionate artist. Integrating your head and your heart into each situation will broaden your experience.

Daily Horoscopes for May 14th

General Daily Horoscope

The Moon’s visit to equalizing Libra tends to balance our energy and bring us back toward center. Since these are times of social, political and personal extremes, this harmonizing Moon phase can be a welcome relief. However, her conjunction with sobering Saturn today feels like cold water that wakes us up from a pleasant but illusory dream. Nevertheless, we would be wise to learn from Saturn rather than trying to avoid his current reality check.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

As much as you want to be practical today, it’s tough to finish all your chores because interruptions continue to catch you off guard. However, there are only a certain number of hours in the day so you cannot waste your time on unimportant activities. You have a chance now to demonstrate what you can accomplish if you remain focused, so don’t allow your mind to drift too far off track.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Managing your time wisely today allows you to be extra productive and your determination gives you the ability to stay on schedule. It takes a lot to pull you off task now, so you should be able to finish whatever projects you start. But don’t be overly concerned about working quickly; if you establish your own pace and do the job correctly from the beginning, you will arrive at your destination just on time.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Although you are quite serious today, you may not be all that quiet. You could be your regular talkative self, even if you’re more concerned with substantial issues now than you are with witty banter. It doesn’t matter if someone thinks you’re a wet blanket because your somber tone is only temporary. Even if others expect you to be the life of the party, it’s okay to acknowledge that life is not just fun and games.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Your schedule may be less forgiving today and it won’t be easy to alter your previously made plans. In fact, you could exhaust yourself by resisting the prevailing currents now. Instead, remain flexible and flow with your existing commitments the best you can. Don’t harbor any resentment, even if you wish you could do something else. If you maintain a positive attitude and a healthy sense of humor, the day will be more pleasant for everyone involved.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The determined Taurus Sun motivates you to complete whatever you begin, but your intentions may be obscured by restrictive Saturn today. You probably won’t mind turning down your volume for a while because a bit of self-restraint allows you to shine your light longer than usual. If others lean on you now, it’s because they can sense that you’re very serious about following through with your promises. However, don’t stress yourself out trying to live up to someone else’s expectations; doing the best you can is all that anyone can ask.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You are very committed to doing a good job today, yet you can accomplish a lot without appearing to work hard. Paradoxically, you may look like you’re having more fun than you really are now, because you’re anxious about what others will think if your finished product isn’t good enough. Thankfully, you don’t need to worry so much because you are a more critical judge than most of your peers.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

The Moon’s return to gracious Libra is a gentle reminder that treating others kindly really does make you feel good, too. But the Moon’s conjunction to hardworking Saturn can stir up issues of resentment today because you wish that someone else would take care of you for a change. However, this isn’t a good day for rebellious behavior. Although you might hit an emotional rough patch, maintaining the peace should still be your top priority.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

The Moon’s visit to your 12th House of Secrets emphasizes your behind-the-scenes role today. Unfortunately, you are not satisfied being an invisible helper and could have a meltdown in front of everyone. Although you might like assisting others, you also require time to explore your own emotional issues. Don’t resist nurturing yourself, even if you’re worried about appearing selfish. If you don’t look after your own needs, you won’t have enough energy to look after anyone else’s.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You have things to do now and strategic planning can help you accomplish what’s on your agenda. Normally, you might have a difficult time turning down an invitation to a social function, but today you are able to act with restraint. It’s not that you want to avoid the fun; it’s just a matter of priorities and you have more serious thoughts on your mind. It’s important to be responsible, but you don’t necessarily have to ignore your friends to accomplish your goals.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

The radiant Sun and energetic Mars are now dancing through your 5th House of Self-Expression, encouraging you to approach your day in a lighthearted manner. But the Moon’s conjunction with your key planet Saturn in your 10th House of Public Responsibility can rain on your parade by squelching your creativity. Don’t bother wasting too much time trying to force spontaneity today; initiating one carefully considered action is smarter than behaving recklessly.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You are pulled between needing to get out to do something exciting and isolating yourself from the rest of the world by staying home. But neither extreme will be possible since you probably have weekend chores to do today. Your friends might not even realize how dissatisfied you are now because you are so masterful at hiding your unfulfilled desires behind a facade of busyness. Be careful or you could end up misleading yourself by slipping into denial.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your responsibilities have grown in complexity and it’s no longer sufficient to just fulfill your promises. Things have changed as your awareness has grown over the past month. Now you must integrate your recent spiritual lessons into your everyday life. It’s not enough to write about your experiences like schoolchildren report on their summer vacations. Instead, recapture the intensity of your awakening by taking your new perspective to heart.

Daily Horoscopes for May 11th

General Daily Horoscope

Energetic Mars moves into plodding Taurus today, helping us slow down and set a pace that improves our chances of actually reaching our goals before we burn out. Meanwhile, the Moon’s entry into analytical Virgo adds logic to our thinking process. The emphasis on practical Earth signs (Taurus and Virgo) helps keep us grounded, but we’re still tempted to indulge our senses as mental Mercury and sweet Venus join joyful Jupiter to lift our spirits.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You can sense the change in energy as your key planet Mars leaves exciting Aries for the more restful ground of Taurus. But your hopes are still running high because you feel lucky. And even if things don’t fall your way today, you’re able to set aside your expectations and enjoy yourself anyhow. If boredom turns to dissatisfaction, come back to the present moment where you can change your attitude and upgrade the entire day.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You might break out in spontaneous fits of laughter today. Your key planet Venus receives a boost of confidence from boastful Jupiter, making it tough to be too serious. You aren’t necessarily interested in hiding your glee now, but you don’t necessarily want to flaunt it, either. Keep in mind that it’s all about your attitude. No one will find fault with you for feeling good as long as you try to share your positive energy with your friends.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You are wrapped in a series of lovely social encounters today, yet something can still hold you back from fully enjoying yourself. Since you often keep your options open until the last minute, perhaps you are scared of getting stuck. Unfortunately, your fears have the power to prevent you from being really happy; don’t let your negative thoughts hijack an otherwise positive day.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

It’s hard to trust what you hear today because everyone is prone to exaggeration during the Mercury-Venus-Jupiter conjunction. You might want to believe that what you’re being told is true, yet your instincts also tell you that something isn’t quite right. It all sounds a little too perfect, especially once you consider that your insecurities could make for an unnecessarily hard judge. If you let go of your fears and be open to what happens, you may be pleasantly surprised.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You should be happy with your production today as long as you can concentrate your attention on your goals. But you could end up blaming others for your own lack of focus if you don’t get much work finished. Remember that there are a variety of ways to measure success and you might make significant progress now without having the results to show for it.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You are still running on the buzz of a creative high, yet you may be content now to take a nature walk, stroll through a museum or listen to a new band. Unfortunately, no matter what you do, the inspiration must ultimately come from within. Therefore, you will be happier today if you don’t avoid the hard work of making something yourself. Sharing your gifts with others could feel like a heavy responsibility unless it comes from the heart.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You are quite upbeat about a relationship that might have had you feeling down only a few days ago. Thankfully, luck is on your side now as your key planet Venus aligns with jovial Jupiter. Nevertheless, over-confidence can make things tricky if you follow your bliss without thinking about someone else’s feelings. As always, it’s smart to ask others what they want before forging blindly ahead with your plans.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

This is a propitious day to begin a major project because whatever you do now will likely be blessed. Although wealth and happiness may be temporary, today’s joyful Venus-Jupiter conjunction makes the material world more tempting than usual. Your willpower is on the line, so keep striving toward living the kind of life you want to lead without letting extravagant behavior pull you off course.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You are likely to exaggerate the facts today as your key planet Jupiter magnifies talkative Mercury. You could become obsessive about an idea that seems important enough to take over your whole day. But practicing a bit of sensible restraint may be enough to prevent you from going overboard. It’s not necessary to go to the other extreme by pushing away a potentially enjoyable experience. Just be smart and establish limits so you don’t get into trouble later for forgetting to stop.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your friends might think that you’re overreacting by turning a molehill into a mountain today. However, you are much more stable than you sound. There are two entirely different perspectives unfolding now. The first is about your eagerness to try nearly anything new. The other story is about your unflappable determination. Remember, there is a calm you can find when you dive deep beneath the rough waters on the surface.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may feel invincible today, but your secret weapon is safe from the inquisitive minds of others. This anonymity is because your current power stems from your subconscious mind that’s beyond the sensory perceptions of anyone else. Although you may be tempted to explore these hidden non-physical realms, don’t lose touch with the real world in the process.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You might be confused by your current optimism today, especially if others seem to be critical of your new plans. You don’t understand their negativity and may respond by placing more credence in hope than in hardcore planning. However, attending to details now should pay off. If you can keep your unrestrained enthusiasm in check, you have an excellent chance to make some money and even have a bit of fun along the way.

Daily General Horoscopes for May 10th

General Daily Horoscope

The melodramatic Leo Moon’s square to the unflappable Taurus Sun makes it tough to initiate action until the pressure builds to a breaking point. However, something must give or we may suffer the consequences of being overly stubborn with both the Sun and the Moon in fixed signs. Fortunately, we are likely to find a viable solution when the Moon forms harmonious aspects to several planets in enterprising Aries tonight and early tomorrow morning.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are in a highly creative phase and it’s up to you to find the best way to express yourself. This isn’t just about having fun, for you cannot set aside your responsibilities. Your desires may be luring you toward pleasure, but you’re more likely to make a mature choice now, instead of planning your escape. It’s wise to fulfill your obligations, but don’t ignore your most exciting dreams in the process.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

The Moon’s visit to your 4th House of Roots indicates that you have plenty of work to do on the domestic front. Although you may need to go to your regular place of employment today, you still might find a way to also spend plenty of time at home. Treat the smallest chores and simplest pleasures as significant acts so you can maintain a healthy and joyful perspective on your life.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

It’s a very busy day as your regular routine becomes more complicated today. You may talk about simplifying your life, but it’s not going to be easy to cut back on your activities. Instead of fretting over what you cannot finish now, slow down enough to catch your breath and just try to meet your obligations as best you can.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Today’s the day to shift into gear and put your plan into motion. You’ve had enough time to process your feelings and to consider what’s ahead and you can’t put off the inevitable. Instead of waiting for a better moment, take the first steps toward your goal now while you have the chance. It could take a while to get there, so don’t delay starting any longer.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You can actually feel the Moon now that it’s back in your sign because your moods are vacillating more than usual. But you’re also more confident today as the Moon moves toward a superconductive trine with optimistic Jupiter in your 9th House of Big Ideas. You may be too impatient to proceed logically and methodically, but locking your sights on a distant goal can help to assure your success.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might not want to participate in social activities now, but circumstances make it difficult to stay quietly behind the scenes. You need to concentrate on what’s happening, but there aren’t many subjects you are compelled to talk about. Take your time and explore the mysteries of the unknown, for that’s where you’ll make meaningful connections, especially if you share your discoveries with someone you trust.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You may be feeling as if time is running out, now that it’s the last day of energetic Mars’ visit to your 7th House of Others. Thankfully, you feel more alive because your relationships have grown more intense. But it’s time to stabilize your interactions with your friends and associates, rather than allowing the stress to get the best of you. Instead of worrying about what you receive from your partners, turn the tables and show your generosity of spirit by being of service of others.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your feelings are on edge today as the Moon’s square to the persistent Taurus Sun stresses you out. You may have been spending too much time on the Magical Mystery Tour, but now it’s time to put your nose to the grindstone so you can make critical decisions about your future. But there’s no need to push the panic button. Set your frustrations aside and connect with others while you can.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Although your close-up vision isn’t very good today, you might feel as if you can see forever. You look out to the horizon and you are certain that the distance has moved even farther away. But this trick of the light enables you to visualize your future while you manage your current schedule. Set the notion of immediate gratification aside. Once you remove the pressure, you may have an easier time reaching your goals.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your anxiety runs deep now because you know how important it is to stay on track and complete everything you have promised. But the temptation of having a good time looms large today and it may be hard to resist. Fortunately, you can work hard to meet your previous obligations and then still have enough time left over for some serious recreation.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your day may be hijacked by friends who feel the need to share their relationship dramas. Whether it’s a new acquaintance or an old romantic partner, it could appear as if someone is trying to limit your personal freedom. Expressing yourself independently is extremely critical now because of its natural rejuvenating power. You won’t have much left to give others unless you take some time to please yourself.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your work-related tasks seem more tedious today, which could make you feel unusually restless. Your solution might be to shake everything up in order to turn a dull job into a field day for the curious. Don’t be afraid to assume power on the job. Fortunately, you should be able to use your authority effectively to accomplish more at work while in pursuit of your higher purpose.

Daily Horoscopes for Monday, May 9th

General Daily Horoscope

Heat is added to the five planets already in reckless Aries with the Moon’s shift into fiery Leo at 5:35 am. Additionally, friendly Venus conjuncts chatty Mercury in Aries, provoking us to talk about what we want in a very direct manner. Normally, this action-packed combo would push unspoken secrets out into the open. But mystery prevails as Mercury and Venus form otherworldly septiles with mystical Neptune, emphasizing the magic of the unknown.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Although Monday means back to work for many, playtime is still on your mind today and you might mislead yourself into thinking that you can escape your responsibilities. Unfortunately, it may be difficult to get any wind in your sails, so don’t be intent on reaching your destination immediately. If you are too eager, your frustration could quickly become problematic. Consciously slow down, instead; enjoy your experiences as you flow in the prevailing currents.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Your obsession with one of your creative fantasies won’t likely become a problem today if you can separate fact from fiction. Make use of your imagination to dream about the life that you want to live. Fill in the details of your vision, but don’t share them with anyone else just yet. Allow the process to develop naturally on its own without focusing too much on the outcome.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You may feel as if the day is unfolding like an episode of ‘The Twilight Zone.’ It’s challenging to tell where your strange dreams turn into reality. You would prefer being in control now, but the harder you try to keep things from falling apart, the worse it gets. Nevertheless, you may want to prove your competence by making a dramatic gesture. Fortunately, you might just pull off this grand illusion as long as you don’t start believing your own hype.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Your mood lightens today once the Moon leaves your sign to zoom into fun-loving and lively Leo. But you may still try to cling to unresolved emotions from the past. Attempts to communicate your feelings could keep you spinning in an endless loop. Don’t rely on logic now; act in the moment without worrying too much about the consequences.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The Moon returns to melodramatic Leo today, tempting you to demonstrate your feelings openly. Luckily, you don’t expect anything in return for your performance because the feedback you receive now probably won’t be too helpful, anyway. Unfortunately, no one seems to have a clear sense of your intentions. Stay true to yourself and honor your own feelings more than everyone else’s.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may attempt to let loose today, even if you can’t afford to flirt with the edge. The problem is that you must stay singularly focused on your responsibilities over the next week. Unfortunately, your normal powers of analysis could leave you cold because you cannot make sense of what’s happening now. Thankfully, things become less complex once you acknowledge that you don’t even know the part you are playing, let alone the script.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You are being challenged to find a workable balance between your desire to hang out with your friends and the need to handle other more pressing responsibilities. You would rather ignore the limitations that stern Saturn continues to place on you, but there’s no easy way to avoid your current obligations. Nevertheless, you’re not that willing to write off your social life. Thankfully, you can get a lot accomplished in a short amount of time now, allowing you to enjoy yourself later in the day.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

The dramatic Leo Moon draws you into the spotlight while enabling you to feel good about the recognition. You are usually adept at hiding your needs, but today you might just put them out there for all to see. However, even when you tell it like it is, there’s still mystery around your motivation. Others want to know what’s going on beneath the surface and they won’t be fully satisfied until they do. Remember, it’s not your responsibility to address their issues by saying any more than is necessary.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Today’s showy Leo Moon connects with your own expressive nature, happily creating a successful formula for you. However, you can’t get away with a lot now and you may have to work extra hard to meet your obligations. Others around you might have unrealistic expectations because they are seeking a leader and are unclear as to your current intentions. Take the time to be meticulous when explaining your plans to everyone else.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Life seems overly complicated, especially if you’re eager to swing into action and do something exciting today. Unfortunately, you probably won’t be able to act on your own now. There may be a complex thread of interrelationships that prevents you from saying too much about anyone else. It’s wise to temporarily acquiesce to someone else’s authority, so keep your feelings to yourself for a while longer.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Others may not understand or appreciate your strange behavior today and your dance could become one of avoiding the truth. But even your most direct approach could get lost in your foggy mental landscape. Your friends might believe that you are being contentious now, but you’re not. Remember, you can still play well with others even if you’re marching to a different drummer.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You want to demonstrate your compassion, but your actions might miss the mark today. Thankfully, it’s not that your aim is wrong; it’s more about your lack of certainty. You may even feel as if you’ve been blindfolded and led on a wild goose chase. There’s no need for grandiose gestures; it’s the small acts of kindness that everyone will remember the most

Daily Horoscopes for Mother’s Day, May 8th

General Daily Horoscope

The tentative Cancer Moon highlights our uncertainty about having too much forward movement in our lives. We may worry about other people’s reactions and could be tempted to slow down or even retreat. However, when we stop to consider someone else’s feelings, five impulsive Aries planets push us ahead again. Still, the Moon’s discordant square to the Aries planetary cluster makes action as uncomfortable as inaction. Middle ground is hard to find.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You mean well, but sometimes others still perceive you as being insensitive. However, today you are so connected to the moods of those around you that you might attempt to fix a difficult situation in order to make everyone feel better. You could appear to be someone’s champion at first, but assuming responsibility for another person’s emotions can lead to dependency issues and power struggles. Be a good friend without taking over.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You can take a good feeling too far now that the Moon squares your key planet Venus and excessive Jupiter. Unfortunately, you probably won’t get away with overdoing anything today because instant karma is lurking just around the corner, ready to make you pay the price for ill-considered behavior. It is wise to acknowledge your limits prior to going over them. Don’t do anything you might later regret.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

It’s been challenging to relax lately, but you will find your groove today, even if it’s a bumpy ride along the way. You are able to better comprehend what works for you, inspiring you to focus on your skills, rather than on your weaknesses. Pay attention so you know when to call it quits. Remember that taking the smartest idea to an extreme can turn the feeling of a job well done into one of dissatisfaction. Observing the emotional weather helps you to know when to stop pushing.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Your emotional needs can be quite overwhelming now that the Moon is visiting your sign. Fortunately, you shouldn’t have too much of a problem requesting something that you want. However, you could create trouble if you demand too much. Even if you don’t ask for anything, you may feel frustrated because you want more than you receive. But this isn’t the best time to be overly needy. Instead of being melodramatic, be grateful for the blessings you already have in your life.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Your recent creative cycle may be coming to an end, elevating the significance of current events. It’s crucial to complete unfinished projects prior to beginning something new. Exercise caution because you might overlook what’s really happening; being eager for success is not the same as idealizing a new opportunity. You will be best served now by seeing things as they truly are and not as you would like to see them.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Although you truly want to meet your obligations while still responding to changing dynamics at work, you could grow tired of office politics and decide not to engage in the games any longer. But your emotional withdrawal is a very powerful statement on its own, for nearly everyone understands that you normally analyze all the possible moves before deciding what to do next. Make sure not to burn any bridges today that you might want to cross in the weeks ahead.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You have mixed feelings about a significant relationship now. You are ready to take charge and do whatever is necessary to reach your goals. On the other hand, you are weary of feeling like you’re doing all the work. Either way will probably leave you wishing that you just listened to the other voice. The easy solution, however, is to keep busy in your pursuit of success without expecting too much from others.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

It seems as if everyone is telling you something different now and you want to benefit from each and every point of view. However, it’s challenging to find the right balance between relying on your own experience and learning from others. Ironically, you can best see what’s around the corner now by using your intuition, instead of seeking another perspective. Although it’s usually an advantage to have multiple points of view, today your own opinion counts more than anyone else’s.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may be extremely enthusiastic about several different projects that are coming to a confluence at the very last minute. But the Moon squares your key planet excessive Jupiter now, luring you into a delicious trap that may appear better than it is. There’s no cause for panic; it’s wiser to act with a well thought-out plan tomorrow than with reckless abandon today.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

The Moon’s visit to your 7th House of Partners can bring a highly emotional person to the forefront of your life today. And this may not be such an easygoing relationship now, for you might feel as if someone’s toying with your heart. Attempting to reach a compromise or even bringing in a mediator can raise the stakes on a developing power struggle. It’s your choice, so take the high road and disengage from all disagreements. Stepping back might be the simplest answer of all.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may feel as if you’re in the midst of intense passions today, tempting you to seek solace in a more intellectual platform, for that is where you naturally excel. Unfortunately, the Sun’s semisquare to your key planet Uranus emotionally charges your actions and quickly pushes you to the edge of discomfort. Indulging your senses appears enticing, but it’s actually a distraction from the real work at hand.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your creative process receives an energetic boost today when the Moon dynamically squares visionary Jupiter, your traditional ruling planet. Your active imagination is temporarily freed from fear and other emotional constraints, so your fantasies can take you nearly anywhere. Don’t dwell on the negatives; dream about all the amazing possibilities, instead.

Daily Horoscopes for May 7

General Daily Horoscope

Today’s astrological signature is an odd one because the sensitive Cancer Moon pulls our energy inward. Our emotions are powerful, yet we may not feel obliged to share what we’re feeling now. Meanwhile, we have a lot of positive things to say as sweet Venus tracks along closely with communicator Mercury until they join up on Monday. Nevertheless, our words are sparse and it could take a few more days before we actually say what’s on our minds.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

It may be easier to withhold your anger now than to express what you actually feel. Remaining tight-lipped could seem safer because of your fear that you’ll share too much once you get on a roll. Unfortunately, relationships can cool if suppressed emotions turn into resentment. It might be wiser to sink into your feelings, put your thoughts in order and then speak your truth.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Your imagination can lure you far from reality now, making it difficult to return. Your emotions may seem overwhelming, turning you into your own worst enemy. Above all, don’t try to go into denial, for you won’t be able to use logic to outmaneuver your feelings. Remain open to whatever happens today because your current goals will likely morph into something else. Ultimately, your unflappable determination enables you to get back on track. Don’t bother explaining anything until after you know you’re moving in the right direction.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Your clever wit saves you from a difficult situation today. However, you still must carefully watch every step you take so you don’t make a social faux pas. Your lighthearted sense of humor can relieve the pressure in the immediate moment, but it doesn’t fix the underlying cause. Things are more complex than they appear now. Take your time and don’t be so quick to tap dance around the edge of the unknown.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You might not like what you’re feeling because the Moon in your moody sign is stressed by Uranus, Pluto and Saturn. The pressure builds, placing you in an awkward position. You would prefer everything to be out in the open, but the present circumstances could require you to remain silent for now. Although you may not find resolution today, the tension will be easier to manage once you realize that it’s temporary.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Being confronted with an intense emotional outburst today might be exactly what’s necessary to awaken you from your complacency. Even if you believed that you had things under control, you’re now beginning to see the unfolding drama in a different light. The first step is to acknowledge that your current plan won’t be sufficient to get you through this power struggle. Thankfully, the intensity of your concentration should enable you to adapt to nearly anything that comes your way.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Handling the fallout from other people’s reactions can be unsettling today, especially if someone is resisting you at every step you take. Although you don’t want to retract your words, you might wish you hadn’t revealed the depth of your current feelings. Working with your emotions isn’t all fun and games now, but can prove to be very rewarding if you’re willing to stick with the process.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You may not be as certain today about a few of your recent choices. Asking tough questions is healthy, but harboring self-doubt is not. The next few days might be frustrating because you can’t see very far into the future, making it nearly impossible to finalize your plans. Instead of allowing yourself to be overwhelmed by stress, engage the energy by doing chores around the house or working on an unfinished project. Rest assured that the dust will settle and you’ll gain clarity regarding your final answer.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You have had no choice other than to go along with external circumstances that seem to be outside of your control. Today, your mild concerns could explode into more serious fears. The Moon’s opposition to your key planet Pluto may have you believing that the situation is worse than you imagined, whereas in truth, it’s probably not nearly as bad as you think. Take whatever steps are necessary to put things back on track, but don’t overreact. An emotional outburst will only stir up more trouble than it solves.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You are usually quick to share what you’re thinking, but your impulsive tendencies may have you backtracking later on. Ironically, you’re probably correct in your analysis of the current situation; it’s just that everything is in flux today and you may jump to a conclusion prematurely. Fortunately, you will have an opportunity to reevaluate your choices and change your mind based upon what you learn later in the day.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

A close friend or partner may seem overly emotional today, prompting you to withdraw. You have your own stuff going on and you’re not that eager to be sidetracked with someone else’s issues. Nevertheless, it’s important to stay present with your feelings to avoid forming unnecessary battle lines. A serious conflict won’t produce any winners, so you would be wiser to resolve problems through open dialogue. Make sure that everyone involved is willing to compromise before you give up more than you should.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You are torn between digging deeply into your feelings today and overpowering them with direct action. In fact, the illusion is that both approaches seem to exclude the other. The solution is not straightforward because a sensible strategy must incorporate both your internal process and your apparent behavior. Don’t be afraid to admit that you are unsure of what to do next; engaging in an honest conversation with someone you trust is more useful now than getting fast results.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

It’s challenging to stand up for yourself now, especially if a powerful person in your immediate environment thinks that they know how you should live your life. You might be reluctant to admit that your point of view is different because you’re not interested in defending your beliefs. Although this issue may resurface at a later date, it’s best to wait it out and say as little as possible. What seems critical today won’t be as important next week.

Daily Horoscopes for May 6

General Daily Horoscope

Today’s friendly Gemini Moon enables us to enjoy ourselves, even if we are quite busy. Though we may feel the continuing stress of so many planets in just-do-it Aries, we are able to accomplish a lot without much effort as the Moon forms supportive sextiles to the Aries planets, giving us much-needed cosmic assistance. Our attention turns toward nurturing our home and family this weekend as the Moon shifts into reflective Cancer at 10:31 pm EDT.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Although you won’t likely take no for an answer today, you may need to do some fast talking before you receive the approval you are seeking. You might become frustrated if you’re caught up by circumstances you cannot control. On one hand, you shouldn’t give up too soon, for persistence will probably bring you what you want. On the other hand, remaining flexible is essential because your needs are changing faster than you realize.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You need time to absorb the changes you have recently experienced, but one distraction after another now can keep you hopping. Thankfully, the energy should begin to settle down by tomorrow, giving you enough peace and quiet to actually hear your own thoughts. Meditation can eventually bring a feeling of contentment, but today you must learn to find satisfaction even while you’re busy.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

If you feel that your needs are going unmet today, it’s probably because your moods are shifting very quickly while the Moon is in your fickle sign. You may get exactly what you want, but your desires continue to morph from one thing into another. Fortunately, your friends and associates are pretty easygoing about your current restlessness now, so it’s unnecessary to hide your feelings. Keeping others informed about your process can help to build better friendships.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You might think that you need to keep something private, but once you begin telling your story today, your secrecy is overshadowed by your new policy of transparency. Perhaps you realize that you don’t have to hide as much as you usually do, and your current excitement about belonging to an extended family or a social network can have you sharing your feelings before you have a chance to consider the consequences. It’s time to come out of your shell, but don’t overwhelm everyone in the process.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You cannot hold yourself back once your attention shifts from listening to active participation. There may be valid reasons for your recent caution, but your progress on several fronts today should win out over your resistance. Don’t try to talk yourself into keeping quiet because the talkative Gemini Moon in your social 11th house needs interaction with others more than you need your autonomy.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Making a case for what you want today doesn’t assure that you will be satisfied right away. Nevertheless, this isn’t a sensible time to back down, for your words carry more power these days than you realize. Remember that facing external resistance can be the result of projecting your own internal fears. Overcoming apparent obstacles may prove to be hard work now, but the potential payoff is worth the extra effort.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You are a bit pushier than usual now, especially if given a chance to tell others about your exciting plans. Your easygoing approach may be thrown out the window as you face the fear of being rejected by a friend or partner. You might believe that turning up your volume is one way to compensate for your uncertainty. Just remember that this impulsive strategy could backfire, motivating others to withdraw. Fortunately, the long-term viability of your ideas is not affected by someone else’s acceptance today. The only opinion that matters right now is yours.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Today’s interactive Gemini Moon provokes you to take a risk and lay your feelings out in the open, whether or not this is the most sensible thing to do. Unfortunately, others may become anxious if they aren’t as comfortable as you are when it comes to handling intense emotions. Nevertheless, suppressing what you want to say will only make matters worse. Seeking the middle path works best; express what’s in your heart without expecting anything in return.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

The changeable Gemini Moon is illuminating your 7th House of Others, filling the day with one noisy interaction after another. The intriguing folks who enter your life now make it difficult to turn down an invitation to learn something new. Just remember that you don’t have to impress anyone today; all you have to do is soak in as much information as possible and be grateful for the experience.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may not be able to shut off your thinking now while ingenious thoughts are spinning your head around. Fortunately, the steady Taurus Sun enables you to pick one good idea and turn it into something tangible. Don’t be afraid to let your mind wander today, since you’ll instinctively come back to center with something positive to show for your daydreaming.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

There’s no need to show off your cleverness today, for those close to you already know that you’re very smart. Instead of overstating your case or rambling on too long about your latest great idea, just show up and be yourself. Your intelligence shines through your actions as well as your words, so walk your talk instead of trying to convince others that your plan is the best one.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may find yourself exploring new financial territory today, whether you’re considering a major purchase, taking out a loan or making an investment. However, it’s difficult to narrow your focus enough to make a choice as the scattered Gemini Moon aspects several planets in your 2nd House of Money. Remove the pressure by putting off your final decision until you’ve had a chance to gain more clarity on your next move.

Weekend Lunar Love Horoscopes for May 6 – 8

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

by Jeff Jawer

Emotional Lunar Tides

May 6 – 8

Emotions hover close to the surface this weekend with the Moon in the supersensitive sign of Cancer. This is Luna’s home sign, making feelings stronger and ups and downs more likely. Generally, the nurturing Cancer Moon is good for familiar places, home cooking, cuddling, nostalgia, old movies and all those sweet protective things that make us feel safe.

Friday looks mellow until late at night when the cautious Cancer Moon crashes into an explosive 90-degree square with unsettling Uranus. This planet of shocks and surprises doesn’t flow well with tender Cancer, making this a time when flexibility is essential. Sudden changes of plans and moods don’t foster a sense of intimacy, although a wild night or impulsive fling with an inappropriate person can seem compelling to some.

The road doesn’t look any smoother on Saturday, starting with a snarky Moon-Pluto opposition in the morning and continuing on with a tense lunar square to Saturn later in the day. These transits are more about digging into the depths of our emotions, bringing unresolved issues to the surface or burying them with distractions and denial. Yet this can be a productive day for those willing to tackle tough problems. This cosmic atmosphere lends itself more to responsibility than playfulness as even minor concerns could block out the Sun with dark clouds of doubt.

Several stressful lunar transits give us a lot to talk about on Sunday and, if we’re honest about our feelings, barriers to intimacy could be blown away. Making a fresh start within ourselves and with others is a worthy reward for all this hard work.

Daily Horoscopes for May 5

General Daily Horoscope

We are still experiencing the excitement of what’s new in our lives since five planets are in pioneering Aries. However, the Sun is in practical Taurus, motivating us to finish what we start. But today’s jittery Gemini Moon speeds up our thinking so much that we may become too scattered to stay focused. Thankfully, a midday lunar trine to realistic Saturn might help us temporarily filter out the excess noise so we can actually get some work done.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

It seems as if your hectic life keeps getting busier and busier. As much as you enjoy the hustle and bustle, you are looking forward to a quieter time. However, it won’t likely happen today. Fortunately, the fast pace feels good; you don’t have time now to worry about what’s not going right. Nevertheless, pick one task out of everything that’s on your plate and focus on it with all the determination that you have. The results may be more satisfying than you expect.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You may feel as if your finances are a bit uneven today, even if nothing much has changed recently. But you probably won’t share your insecurities with others now, for you might believe that giving a voice to your fears will only make them worse. You don’t have to dwell on the negatives; take positive action instead — even if it’s as minor as paying a few bills. Anything that gives you a sense of control will help to ease your stress.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Your friends may think that you’re not very grounded now that the Moon is moving through restless Gemini, but you are more stable than you appear. Nevertheless, your moods can fluctuate at a rapid rate today, so try keeping your opinions to yourself for a while before sharing them. Instead of running all over the map, speak your piece later on once you’re sure of what you want.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

There’s no need for you to push so hard at work now, especially if you have been focused on your career ambitions all week. It’s not that you can just take the day off, but you can keep your best ideas to yourself for a few more days, giving them a chance to mature. If you share too much of your current thinking today, others may stop listening. Let your patience work in your favor and give your strategy time to develop.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

It’s nearly impossible for you to concentrate on the present moment with the Moon in your 11th House of Long-Term Goals plus five planets traveling through your 9th House of Adventure. Although you are looking forward with great anticipation, you must demonstrate your reliability today by putting in extra effort, because important events are unfolding at work. If you handle the immediate situation with integrity, the future will take care of itself.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might have mixed feelings about a new project at work as the Moon moves through your 10th House of Career. Others are pushing you to make a decision today, yet you’re probably unwilling to make a commitment just yet — you may learn new facts that could motivate you to change your mind, or something better could come along. However, you can reduce the uncertainty and increase the stability in your life by choosing now.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You may be thinking about pursuing a new course of study that isn’t related to your career. Even if you have many choices before you, it’s logistically impossible to follow more than one path. Thankfully, the Moon’s harmonious trine to Saturn in your sign today can give you the clarity you need in order to make the smartest decision. After considering all your options, trust your intuition, pick your direction and get going.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You are tempted to talk about your feelings today, even if you’ve been holding them back for a reason. You don’t intend to hurt anyone, but your direct approach might sound insensitive. It’s not what you say that can stir up ill will; it’s how you say it. Think twice before you blurt out the truth. You can still express yourself honestly while also treating others with kindness and respect.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may be more curious than usual today as you seek other people’s opinions to help you clarify your own. It takes extra effort on your part now to pin someone down who continues to evade responding to your questions. Unfortunately, the more you push for resolution, the less likely you will get it. Step back and allow others to have some elbow room. You’ll become more confident of your perspective by looking within, rather than listening to anyone else.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

As a general rule, information isn’t something you collect unless you have a way to make use of it as you work toward your goals. You may be learning a lot at work now with the clever Gemini Moon moving through your 6th House of Employment, but you are hard-pressed to apply your new knowledge. Nevertheless, the tools you’re gathering can help you to express yourself in ways you haven’t yet imagined.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Although you may have plenty to do at work, you could get antsy enough that you want to begin your weekend a couple of days too soon. You are able to come up with sufficient reasons to justify your restlessness, but all the talk in the world won’t make your busy schedule any less demanding. Fortunately, managing your calendar becomes easier once you decide to have fun with it, instead of worrying about fitting everything in.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your personal business could keep you hopping today as the light-footed Gemini Moon visits your 4th House of Home and Family. Unfortunately, it may take you longer than you expect to complete each and every task that’s now on your plate. Thankfully, your self-esteem is running high these days, so you shouldn’t have too much trouble responding to the current demands. Set your priorities by making a list to help you be more efficient.

Daily Horoscopes for May 4th

General Daily Horoscope

The day begins with the stubborn Taurus Moon forming a difficult aspect with judgmental Saturn, provoking a possible standoff between our needs and our responsibilities. But the Moon’s shift into quicksilver Gemini at 1:09 pm EDT encourages us to change our minds as quickly as the wind on a spring day. Although Gemini is a rational Air sign, we still could be tempted to express our irrational feelings now as the Moon squares confusing Neptune.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are geared up to make it through the uncertainty of the day, but circumstances could change dramatically enough that you must modify your agenda. It’s not wise to take success for granted now since you must work extra hard to see progress. Taking shortcuts won’t work, either. Putting on an air of bravado won’t do the trick today, so get serious and keep bringing your scattered energy back to the tasks at hand.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

The Moon forms an uncomfortable semisquare with your key planet Venus today, tying your feelings up in knots. A simple desire becomes more complex as you obsess about the power that love has over you. However, your worries may just be the result of an overactive imagination. Don’t waste time thinking about something that may never happen. You’ll be happier if you keep your attention on the present moment.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Your key planet Mercury is finally regaining speed as it continues to recover from its retrograde phase last month. Don’t be discouraged about your overall lack of progress on a creative project, for things should be turning around pretty quickly today. Nevertheless, it may be difficult to make up your mind with certainty now that the emotional Moon is back in your whimsical sign for a couple of days. Take your time before making any important decisions.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You need to begin a process of letting go now as the Moon moves through your 12th House of Endings. Your work may not flow as easily as you wish and there’s no easy way to force yourself through the current creative block. Don’t get hung up about something on the job that isn’t moving ahead; instead, watch the signs and see what clues you can derive. Once you figure out the message, you will be permitted to proceed to the next step.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The social aspects of your day may grow very complicated, pressuring you to contract your energy. However, you have personal business that must be attended to today, even if it’s not much fun. Once you push through your own resistance, everything seems to become easier, freeing up enough time for you to do something totally unexpected by your peers. Setting your mind on a particular accomplishment is a wise strategy, but things won’t necessarily turn out as planned. Let the element of surprise work in your favor.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

It’s all about establishing healthy patterns now and sticking to them, whether you want to or not. Your place of employment may be a bit overrun with people experiencing powerful emotions, and you’re not interested in becoming one of them. Be fierce as you monitor your own performance in light of your career objectives. Make a few positive modifications to your daily routine before you try to progress further.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

It may feel as if your relationships are extra tense these days, especially if you’re not getting your needs met. Your romantic urges are strong with flirty Venus and four of her planetary peers hanging out in your 7th House of Partners. You would rather be working with someone you like than being on your own now, and Messenger Mercury in impulsive Aries adds a false sense of urgency to your desires. Remember to relax; you really have more time than you think.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your emotional detachment can be disarming now because this isn’t your usual character. You are often the champion of intensity, but today your passionate living motif seems to be absent. You are able to smooth ruffled feathers, but your friends might be slightly uncomfortable because they cannot read your energy clearly through your layers of insulation. Keeping others on the outside may be the best way now to protect your vulnerable core. Secrets are sometimes useful, but don’t withdraw any more than is necessary.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You must pay careful attention to someone else’s words today, because there’s a lot at stake. This is a time of big changes and you don’t want to miss an important opportunity. Nevertheless, the most significant information comes from others with the Moon now visiting your 7th House of Partners. Be patient and the puzzle pieces will fall into place. Even if you’re sharing your own point of view, listen with care when relevant feedback is offered in return.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

It’s often hard for others to argue with your sense of authority, but this isn’t true today. As you issue commands now you might be more obtuse than you realize. It’s challenging if you are feeling socially awkward, leaving you to doubt your ability to handle the current circumstances. Rest assured that your integrity is ultimately one of your greatest strengths, so don’t sacrifice it for the sake of convenience.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may have an opportunity to share your feelings in a variety of ways today, but things might get complicated once you begin. However, it’s not a smart idea to stop midcourse, even if you cannot grasp the impact of your words. Fortunately, everything should make a lot more sense within a few days. Don’t waste time over-analyzing all the possibilities; the details will unfold soon enough.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You have a lot going on beneath the surface today, but others might not notice. Even if they ask incisive questions, you’ll probably be able to smoothly evade their analytical probes. However, you must pay close attention, for someone may have less than honorable intentions. Keeping a healthy distance is a good idea if you’re not willing to have an uninvited guest digging through your personal life.

Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, May 3

General Daily Horoscope

We kick off the next emotional cycle with the sensual Taurus New Moon at 2:50 am EDT. However, the New Moon’s magical quintile with nebulous Neptune stimulates our imaginations by enabling us to see our lives from a more cosmic perspective. Plus, sweet Venus forms an anxious semisquare with Neptune, emphasizing our unfulfilled desires. Thankfully, the Taurus Moon allows us to balance visions of the future with the reality of the present moment.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

It may appear as if you are at the top of your game today. Actually, you don’t even have to work very hard to amaze others with your finesse as you make your same old routine look like something totally new and different. But too much self-assuredness can lead you into trouble. Sloppy thinking or a hasty miscalculation could tempt you to take an unnecessary risk. Stick to the basics and save the fancy tricks for another day.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

The pragmatic Taurus New Moon allows you to accomplish a lot, perhaps surpassing even your own expectations today. It’s great that you’re able to be so productive now, but it’s even more important that no one will be able to talk you out of your current ambitions. Your legendary bull-headed stubbornness enables you to overcome nearly any resistance, so set your goals high and then focus on reaching them.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

The steady Taurus New Moon activates your 12th House of Fantasy now, increasing the tension between what’s real and what’s ideal. Thankfully, the practical Taurus energy gives you enough stability to transform an apparently unattainable dream into something that can actually take form. Don’t withdraw from the realm of unlimited possibilities because what manifests in the future begins in your imagination today.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Today’s sensible Taurus New Moon highlights your 11th House of Groups, making this a fine time to strengthen your social network. Opportunities to build enduring relationships at work and play are likely to come your way; however, it may be up to you to make the first move. Sharing your long-term goals can be a catalyst that shifts the dynamics from a casual acquaintance into a deep friendship. It might feel risky to take the initiative, but an amicable overture to the right person can continue to benefit you well into the future.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Today’s reliable Taurus New Moon falls in your 10th House of Status, making it easier to express yourself on the job. Although you’re able to explain a complicated recipe for success in very simple language, you may worry about your inability to execute your own strategy. Obviously, being an inspiring speaker now isn’t enough. Overcome your fear of failure and lead by example, so that others can more easily follow you.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

The pragmatic Taurus New Moon reaffirms what you already know about success. Nevertheless, you may be overwhelmed by a large project unless you break it down into several subprojects and complete them one at a time. Avoid the temptation to make a mad dash to the finish line today, because it’s not as close as you might think. Fortunately, your drive for efficiency will help you shine, as long as you don’t attempt to do everything at once.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Libra is the sign of relationships, but today you crave more than just a pleasant interaction with someone. You need to sink beneath the attractive social veneers now or you could be left feeling unsatisfied. You know there is more to life and you want to experience it. But don’t act too obsessively or you might appear desperate. Intimacy is best when it develops naturally on its own.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

The sensible Taurus New Moon activates your 7th House of Partners, influencing you to seek salvation from your complex life through an easygoing relationship. The persistence of Taurus offers the steadiness that you need, even if you are afraid of being limited by its simplicity. Ultimately, the choice is yours; the key to establishing an enduring relationship may hinge on your willingness to give up a little drama and overcome your fear of growing bored.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You have a lot of work to do now, and starting it right away means that you’ll be finished even sooner. Creating consistency is critical since the earthy Taurus New Moon activates your 6th House of Habits. Starting a new job now is easier than ever with so many planets in spontaneous Aries. However, turning your initial excitement into an ongoing discipline is the next step to assuring your success.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may express yourself without a lot of forethought today, but you’ll still need to make a plan if you want to succeed. The Taurus New Moon in your 5th House of Creativity motivates you to take a chance, but you must follow through on what you start or your efforts will have been for naught. Trying something totally new can be a lot of fun; however, it’s crucial to come back to your senses and figure out how to accomplish what you set out to do in the first place.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Five planets moving about in your 3rd House of Immediate Environment suggests that those close to you may be quite supportive of your efforts now. Paradoxically, your lack of flexibility could make it difficult to integrate their good ideas into your overall plan. Don’t assume that your way is the only way; being open to the feedback you receive can make your work much less of a struggle.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

The practical Taurus New Moon highlights your 3rd House of Communication, helping to ground the energy around you. Although the hectic pace may have settled down a bit, the noise isn’t completely gone. Nevertheless, it’s time to reflect on all that’s happened over the past month before taking a few deep breaths and moving on.

Daily Horoscopes for May 2nd

General Daily Horoscope

Although the Moon’s entry into determined Taurus at 1:58 am EDT helps to settle the energy, it’s more of a sign of things to come with a new emotional cycle starting at tomorrow’s Taurus New Moon. We keep talking about slowing down and establishing a pace of life that we can sustain, but now the need to be practical is undeniable. However, the Sun’s disquieting quincunx with taskmaster Saturn indicates that even simplification can be complicated.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are conflicted when you feel the high-frequency excitement beginning to fade today. You’re relieved because you’re able to take a breath, but also sad to experience a pause in all the action. There’s no need to be concerned since the upbeat energy will soon return. Meanwhile, take advantage of your break by doing something special to recharge your system. Thankfully, your sense of renewed vitality will be useful when the energy picks back up in a couple of days.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Although this could be a back-to-work day for you, it seems as if it will also bring you an opportunity to escape. It’s your turn to chill out, so even if you must show up on the job, don’t hesitate to create some personal time so you can contemplate your future. Others may think that you’re being too aloof, but they don’t necessarily understand how you Bulls process your emotions. Integrate your feelings through meditation and active daydreaming before doing anything about them.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You are quite insistent about what you want these days as your key planet Mercury moves away from its opposition to restrictive Saturn, enabling you to think more clearly. Oftentimes, you are quite happy changing your mind, depending upon the usefulness of your affiliations. But now you want to make your decisions in response to your dreams, whether or not they are grounded in reality. Don’t get so caught up in being stubborn; let your natural flexibility lead the way, instead.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You may have the urge to socialize with some of your co-workers for no other reason than to talk about your plans and what you want to do in your future. Expressing your visions of an ideal life isn’t a substitute for making something happen here and now. Nevertheless, you can still enjoy exchanging ideas in a non-judgmental way that can remind you of what’s truly most important. Sharing is a two-way street; listening to others can inspire you to follow your dreams now.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may be stuck in an ongoing argument with yourself today as you try to balance your needs with your responsibilities. Unfortunately, your spontaneity may be constrained by previous commitments, giving you less freedom today than you wish. Nevertheless, you know what you must do, even if you are also considering a quick escape. Being practical is the smartest course of action now, since you’ll have more opportunity for guilt-free play once your work is done.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You are tying up loose ends because you can work at a steady pace now. Ignore anyone who tells you to work faster; you’ll instinctively do what’s best for your productivity. Luckily, you can effectively defend yourself today. Don’t be afraid to take a firm stand on an important issue, but try not to offend anyone else in the process.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

A lighthearted relationship can grow more intense when feelings sink beneath the surface. Thankfully, you are able to describe your emotions with clarity today, but your communication style could clash with someone else’s approach. Go ahead and explain the best you can, but stop talking once you’ve made your point. Don’t be overly impatient; reaching closure might take longer than you think.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You just don’t understand why your co-workers don’t follow through on their promises. You would like to be more forgiving, but still someone can get on your nerves, provoking you to intervene. Unfortunately, throwing a temper tantrum won’t accomplish anything worthwhile. You cannot make anyone else change. Instead, you would be wise to accept full responsibility for your own emotional response and then simply let it go.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Becoming mired in unnecessary details is very annoying, since you typically prefer holistically focusing on the bigger picture. Nevertheless, you see a real necessity to find your way back to the basics today as you create a direct path through all the excitement. Don’t get lost in your work. Although you have a lot to manage now, it’s better to seek a healthy balance between your single-minded ambition and your adventurous spirit.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Sometimes being a hardworking Capricorn really does pays off. If you have been responsible all along, now you get to play. However, others may be jealous, especially if they still have unfinished chores that are infringing on their ability to have fun. Still, you’re far from perfect, and today might reveal something you should have already finished. Don’t take on too much stress; it’s a lot better to enjoy yourself while you can.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You have personal obligations that you aren’t necessarily eager to address today. But you realize that procrastinating will probably delay everything else you need to do, too. Overcome your resistance and don’t make your domestic duties less important than they really are. It may not be easy to initiate action now, but you’ll feel more positive once you make some progress.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

If you have plans for the week, you might not want to change them once you put them into place. Although your stubbornness could work in your favor by helping you to be more productive, adhering to your agenda could become increasingly stressful. A bit of flexibility might help to ease a difficult situation if someone else is stuck. Don’t miss this opportunity to make a difference; with just a little effort, you could be a real hero.

Daily Horoscopes for Saturday, April 30

General Daily Horoscope

This is an intense weekend with five planets and the Moon in excitable Aries. But attractive Venus opposes repressive Saturn today, limiting our pleasure intake. We want instant satisfaction, yet Saturn delays gratification. Nevertheless, the Moon’s contact with the Venus-Saturn opposition tempts us to over-personalize our experiences. Thankfully, the restraint will be short-lived as we approach a confident Mars-Jupiter conjunction later tonight.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You may be getting tired of the same old story. You’re hot to trot today, but you must wait for one reason or another. But instead of getting yourself all worked up because you cannot have what you want now, try taking a more mature approach and acknowledge that you may have something important to learn. Others love your fiery approach to life, but they will respect you more if you can also be patient when it’s appropriate.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You might not allow yourself to have a good time now, especially if you believe that others will judge you harshly if you don’t deliver on your promises. Unfortunately, stern Saturn’s tense opposition to your key planet Venus turns you into your own taskmaster. There’s nothing wrong with catching up on chores; just don’t harbor resentment toward those who choose play over work today. Don’t worry; your chance for fun will be waiting for you later on.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You are ready to lose yourself in a crowd today, whether at a party, a sporting event or the mall. It’s your way of temporarily forgetting about all your responsibilities, but this strategy won’t work no matter how invisible you feel or how fast you run. Fortunately, you can still enjoy yourself in a social setting as long as you don’t have escape on your mind. Make the most of your time with others and then return to the chores you set aside earlier.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You are uncharacteristically motivated to take bold action because you want to demonstrate a more dynamic side of your personality today. But you could try too hard and end up feeling rather foolish if you think you have to do something out of the ordinary just to be accepted by your friends and family. Instead of playing all your cards out in the open, do what comes naturally. It might be wiser now to assume the role of the strong and silent supporter rather than taking center stage.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You want to have a little excitement in your life today and you’re ready to lead the charge on an adventure with your friends. Unfortunately, they may not be as enthusiastic as you are now. Instead of trying to get others to support your idea of fun, leave them to their more sedate ways and go off by yourself. When you’re done with your excursion, you can return refreshed and rejoin those you left behind.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You’re not interested in your typical analytical approach to relationships now; you are intrigued by juicier rewards that lure you out of your comfort zone. You feel more emotionally assertive than usual and might even frighten someone close to you because of your heightened sense of urgency. Paying attention to how others react and having the courtesy to give them the space they need today can bring the results you seek.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

As a Libra, you’re often more interested in maintaining harmony in a relationship than in always getting your way. The moody Moon joins your key planet Venus in your 7th House of Partnerships today, reemphasizing what others want. Although you are normally comfortable with taking care of someone else’s needs, you’ve had enough of being taking for granted. Stand up for yourself now by putting your foot down to set limits. However, don’t be surprised if it takes longer than you prefer to be taken seriously.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You are able to tell someone what you want today in no uncertain terms. You’re also able to do it in a manner of clarity that doesn’t blame anyone else for your dissatisfaction. In fact you seem somewhat detached from your needs even as you express them. However, you could be holding onto unexpressed anger, possibly on an unconscious level. Don’t bury your feelings; if something is bothering you, get it off your chest or it could return later in the form of a projection.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may not be willing to modify your plans today in order to be included by your family or friends. You would rather separate yourself from others and keep your sense of integrity, even if it means doing something on your own. Thankfully, you won’t likely feel left out because you could be too busy riding your own wave of creative expression. Nevertheless, you’ll probably feel happy to be back in the fold tomorrow.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You are quite aware of how you must suppress certain desires today in order to accomplish very specific goals. You want to have as much fun as the next person, but you’re also able to put personal pleasure into a wider perspective. Still, you can’t help but contemplate the emotional cost of success now. Everything has its price; just don’t sell yourself short.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may have set goals that you now realize you cannot quite reach. Or, perhaps, an obstacle prevents you from doing as much as you wanted to do on a project. But instead of feeling defeat or discouragement, you might have a sense of relief as you reconstruct your day now that you have more time to enjoy yourself. Fortunately, today’s dark storm cloud has a silver lining.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may be tempted to make an impulse purchase today, but this could be a setup for buyer’s remorse. Perhaps the item in question costs more than you originally thought. Or, maybe, you worry that it’s not a good investment because it’s something you don’t really need. Take your time and logically analyze the pros and cons of spending your money. If after rational consideration the expenditure still makes sense, then go ahead because it’s probably a smart acquisition.

Weekend Lunar Love Horoscopes for April 29 – May 1

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

by Jeff Jawer

Take a Walk on the Wild Side

April 29 – 1

Expect a wild ride this weekend with the Moon entering rambunctious Aries on Friday morning. We tend to be more impulsive with this lunar placement, easily growing bored with preset plans and primed to leap at interesting new people and experiences. Aries is also a sign of independence, placing personal interests at a higher priority than pleasing people. This could lead to some conflict for those too absorbed in their own desires to slow down and consider what others need.

The spontaneity of Aries spikes on Friday when the Moon conjuncts electrifying Uranus. The downside of this aspect is a feeling of restless anxiety or a sense of alienation. However, creative individuals can use this cosmic connection as a chance to break old patterns and discover new ways of having fun.

Saturday’s defining planetary feature is a tense opposition between Venus, the planet of love and desire, and Saturn, the representative of limits and obligations. This sobering alignment can slam the brakes on a budding romance or take some of the enthusiasm out of an ongoing relationship. We may feel less loved or appreciated, yet the point is not to puncture the potential for love but to put it on a realistic foundation. Directly addressing partnership issues with frank conversations may not be delightful, but can set a weakening alliance back on course or end one that’s not going to meet our long-term desires.

Aggressive Mars’ conjunction with gigantic Jupiter fuels flames of anger or passion on Saturday night and Sunday, presenting a striking contrast between playing it safe and going for broke.

Daily Horoscopes for Friday, April 29

General Daily Horoscope

The psychic Pisces Moon reminds us that fantasy can seem real — and sometimes it actually is. It’s especially difficult to separate fact from fiction today as expansive Jupiter forms a complicated septile to dreamy Neptune. However, we are shocked awake by the Moon’s shift into spontaneous Aries at 1:33 pm EDT, followed by a Moon-Uranus conjunction at 6:58 pm. We may be temporarily thrown off balance as we respond to the suddenness of change.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Today is one of those days when you might not even realize that you’ve slipped into the Twilight Zone. If you pay close attention to everything happening now, you might notice that things are bent slightly out of shape. Slipping into this parallel world isn’t the problem, but mixing it up with the real one can prove troublesome. Rely on your friends to help you distinguish your illusions from reality.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You are quick-witted enough to outsmart yourself today. There is so much activity going on within your unconscious mind that you might forget what just occurred only a few minutes ago. Naturally, this can create a very embarrassing situation unless you consciously decide to stay on top of it all. Don’t be afraid to trust your snap judgment. Thankfully, your intuition won’t lead you astray now.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You may share a feeling today that provokes a strong and clear response. But rather than receiving a round of all-too-familiar criticism, you might actually get an unexpected boost of support from someone who isn’t usually your closest ally. Be careful, for you might be reading the situation incorrectly. And even if you’re positive about the accuracy of your perceptions, keep in mind that everyone’s feelings are prone to change now.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You may be daydreaming of taking a quick trip to a faraway destination, however, there’s this little problem of transportation. You might prefer the idea of near instantaneous travel because you want to get to your exotic destination immediately and still be home in time for a comfortable dinner. Unfortunately, you are just setting yourself up for disappointment unless you can be satisfied by traveling in the fantasy realms instead of actually going anywhere for real.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You have a practical agenda today, yet you might choose to set it aside if there is an opportunity to do something more exciting than taking care of business. Don’t be too concerned about other people’s expectations; you need to follow your own heart. Rather than wasting energy trying to justify your actions, attend to your responsibilities first, so whatever you do next is beyond criticism.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may be rethinking upcoming travel plans that you thought were already set. Or, perhaps, you’re juggling your responsibilities so you can fit everything into your schedule. But it’s tricky now because you cannot do this work alone. You’ll improve your chances for success if your co-worker or partner supports you, so include him or her in your scheming. Remember that nothing is etched in stone yet. Today’s decisions could change as soon as tomorrow.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You have many small tasks to finish and it’s wise to complete as much as possible prior to the Moon leaving your 6th House of Routine. It becomes more complicated to return to chores left undone once your attention moves on to something else. Also, it’s quite likely that someone will distract you later in the day and your schedule will be unexpectedly hijacked; don’t put off anything important unless it’s beyond your control.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may welcome an exciting diversion to your daily routine today, but your responsibilities could suffer in the process. Surprisingly, you’ll probably say yes to an invitation that comes your way, even if you don’t think that you can take the time to play. Naturally, meeting your obligations remains a high priority, but your overall quality of work won’t be as good if you don’t also give yourself the chance to relax.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You might experience unexpected tension because of the responsibilities that now fall on your shoulders. However, you are still ready to go out and have some fun, no matter what the consequences are. Your productivity will likely slack off today, but you should be able to make up for it tomorrow. At least, show some creativity by mixing up boring chores with new activities that are more exciting.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You probably won’t be able to stick to your plans today, and accepting this fact upfront could alleviate a lot of unnecessary stress. Your moods are swinging all over the map, making you less likely to follow through on your original agenda. Rather than suppressing your feelings, remain open to them. Maintaining objectivity now could be exhausting and unproductive. You will feel much better once you give yourself permission to temporarily relinquish control.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may receive an unexpected message today from someone who is very close to you. Paradoxically, what you are told could be contrary to what you thought you were going to hear. This new information could complicate your day, but you’ll only make matters worse if you try to block it out. You can’t avoid the negative consequences by pretending there isn’t a problem. Be smart and face any issue that surfaces now before it spins out of control.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may feel unsettled today because you know something is about to change. Your feelings are quite volatile now and you don’t know where they are leading you. Unfortunately, your attempts to suppress your needs could provoke you to unconsciously act out. Trying to control the situation by limiting your interactions with others will only make you feel lonely. Remember that you are a Fish and should know that it’s easier to swim with the currents instead of resisting the tide.

Daily Horoscopes for April 25

General Daily Horoscope

The Moon’s visit to intellectual Aquarius fuels the fires of the five-planet cluster in independent Aries. The global thinking of Aquarius combines nicely with the personal drive of Aries. The Moon’s harmonious trine to stabilizing Saturn grounds our ideas in practical action. Meanwhile, we receive support from the Sun, which has already escaped the Aries pack and is now in determined Taurus to make sure we follow through on what we have begun.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Although it’s back to work for many today, it might still seem like a play day to you. Even if you have obligations to fulfill, you can probably figure out how to involve your friends. You may be like Tom Sawyer, making your chores look like so much fun that others will want to join in and help. Everyone may end up having a good time, regardless of what you are doing. Ultimately, it’s the feeling of camaraderie that makes this day a memorable one.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You want to demonstrate your intelligence today so others will see you as a leader. Staying a step ahead of everyone else enables you to command enough authority to be in charge. However, you might not want all the responsibility that comes with this territory, just because you are seen as the top dog. It’s challenging because you’re not sure about the choices you have to make. Worrying won’t make anything better, so just decide the best you can and move on.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Thinking about the future is easy today, but it becomes more complicated if you have to include others in your decisions. At first, you may enjoy the idea of strategizing how to get your friends involved, but executing your plan may be more challenging than it appears. You might grow irritated because your associates are not acting like team players. If the frustration gets to be too much, don’t be afraid to just proceed on your own.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You have been managing a balancing act between your personal needs and your public responsibilities for a while, and now a conflict with a close friend or partner complicates things even more. You don’t care about the superficial aspects of what’s happening; you need to share on a deeper level. However, it’s not easy to open up if you are afraid of being hurt. Revealing your emotions without being overly attached to the outcome can alleviate the pressure, enabling you to overcome your fear.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You are quite hopeful about a new relationship today, but you still may experience wide mood swings with the Moon activating your 7th House of Partners. Try not to be so attached to your fear of abandonment; don’t over-personalize a situation if someone inadvertently excludes you. You are best off trusting your friends and giving them the same freedom that you want given to you.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Although you may still be feeling anxious today, setting priorities and concentrating on the most practical chores should ease the tension. Unfortunately, focusing isn’t a simple task because you can see too many possibilities ahead, which might make you more resistant to the upcoming changes. Bring your thoughts back to the here and now, for the present moment is the only place where you can create an impact. Don’t worry about the inevitable; your future will arrive exactly on schedule.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You can be the life of the party today or the one who’s busy telling jokes at the office water cooler. But your spontaneity adds to your charm, belying your underlying seriousness. Ironically, several planets in your 7th House of Relationships could shift the focus off of you now and bring someone into your life that helps you see yourself more clearly. Your interactions with others give you a mirror with which you can see into your own soul.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You might mistrust your feelings today as the emotionally detached Aquarius Moon visits your 4th House of Security. It makes you uncomfortable when your rational thoughts are telling your heart what to do, and you’re particularly vulnerable if you lose touch with your feelings. Finding balance is tricky now because ignoring your passions will land you in trouble. Nevertheless, think first before doing something you may regret.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your friends and associates might find it difficult to accept that you feel so good now. They may believe that something is lurking in the twilight behind your bright smile. Luckily, they are wrong. Although deep issues can rise to the surface over the next few days, you are quite capable of handling them. Don’t worry about what others think; just be true to yourself.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You have entered a period of financial uncertainty and nothing you do seems to make sense of your fiscal picture. Even a decision about a straightforward purchase could set you on a trajectory that culminates in the sobering realization that you do not have an endless money supply. Although you might understand the steps to manifesting abundance, it may take you longer than you wish to have enough cash to buy what you want.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

It’s difficult to see the effect you have on others today; however, it’s still useful to contemplate the results of your actions before you undertake something that wastes your time and energy. No matter how good your intentions are now, you can still come on too strong. It’s not helpful to annoy someone who normally supports you. However, you could raise suspicions if you are overly cautious. Your smartest strategy is to acknowledge your own power, but wield it only if necessary.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You are easily enamored with your own fantasies today as the Moon moves through your 12th House of Imagination. You might even forget when to return to reality. Although drifting off into your dreams is often a rejuvenating activity, you won’t be able to turn your back on your responsibilities now. Planning a temporary escape can work as long as you cover your bases in the real world.
