Daily Horoscopes for May 11th

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
New Moon Report for May 11 – Venus and Mercury conjunct Jupiter

Venus and Mercury conjunct Jupiter
Wednesday, May 11
This alignment of the planets of love, intellect and expansion sparks bright ideas, romantic impulses and social engagements. Stimulating conversations ignite big plans that will require more careful research before we can be sure of their viablity. It’s easy to become enthusiastic with new people and social situations and quickly cook up inventive recipes for fun. Joy flows easily as clever words sound witty, brilliant and completely original but they will need the fuel of commitment for these sparks to catch hold and keep burning after the initial excitement fades.
New Moon Report for May 11 – Mars in Taurus

Mars in Taurus
Wednesday, May 11, 12:04 am PDT, 3:04 am EDT
Energetic Mars slows down in this fixed sign where it is more inclined to stay in place than to forge ahead. Asserting ourselves may be more difficult with the warrior planet in placid Taurus as overt expressions of anger tend to be repressed. Passive-aggressive behavior often occurs when we’re unable to be straightforward about our feelings. The positive side of this transit is consistency of effort that may not be exciting or creative, but provides a calming sense of continuity in times of radical change.
Daily General Horoscopes for May 10th

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The year is divided into four seasons;
The first season is of a frigid complexion, and this is Winter;
The second is of the complexion of Air, and this is Spring;
Then follows the third, which is Summer,
and is of the complexion of Fire;
Lastly, there is the fourth,
wherein fruits are matured, which is Autumn.

Daily Horoscopes for Monday, May 9th

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
Weekend Lunar Love Horoscopes for May 6 – 8

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.
