Today’s horoscope for May 9 will see Taurus stick with familiar routines, as Gemini tries to stay positive
It’s Friday, and one star sign has some financial tension, while another tries not to be negative.
There are 12 zodiac signs – Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces – and the horoscopes for each can give you the lowdown on what your future holds, be it in work, your love life, your friends and family or more.
These daily forecasts have been compiled by astrologer Russell Grant, who has been reading star signs for over 50 years. From Aries through to Pisces, here’s what today could bring for your horoscope – and what you can do to be prepared.
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
Step back from situations that seem too serious and intense. Refrain from pushing yourself too hard in an effort to please a senior colleague who never seems happy with your work. If you are struggling with a task you are having to manage on your own, take a breather and return to it when you’re in a better frame of mind.
Taurus (Apr 21 – May 21)
What you really want to do is to stick with your normal routines and anything that’s familiar. Then you can prove your reliability. You just aren’t in the mood to venture into new territory or to go with suggested changes. It will feel like your role today is to keep everything steady and calm.
Gemini (May 22 – June 21)
Keep your thoughts positive and you will find the motivation you need to complete an important project. You could always leave this for someone else to do but if you do this, the credit will go to them and there will be no satisfaction in seeing the job completed.
Cancer (June 22 – July 23)
If recently you have found yourself at the centre of attention, think about taking a step back and giving someone else a chance to shine. As it is, you prefer to be in the role of an observer and not to draw so much attention to yourself.
Leo (July 24 – Aug 23)
Financial disagreements or issues related to your possessions will cause tension in close relationships. You aren’t angry with someone but they think you are and you find it hard to prove they are wrong. You feel the need to wear a cheerful mask despite feeling out of sorts.
Virgo (Aug 24 – Sept 23)
Someone seems to have a habit of annoying you without them even trying. Just their presence will feel aggravating when they can’t sit still for more than a few seconds. It could be they have something to say but they aren’t sure how to say it. Let them know you are listening.
Libra (Sept 24 – Oct 23)
Your world is brimming with possibilities and yet you are choosing to dwell on negatives. No matter what the reason for you to feel so down, try to pull yourself out of this mindset as there are opportunities all around you. You just have to open your eyes to see them.
Scorpio (Oct 24 – Nov 22)
It would be best to steer clear of controversial subjects. Avoid discussing religion, education and politics. You could find yourself talking to someone who is opinionated and thinks they know everything. You really don’t need this today. Keep conversations light and don’t get drawn into arguments.
Sagittarius (Nov 23 – Dec 21)
It might feel as if you are running at full speed and yet making no progress. A team effort especially will prove frustrating and restrictive. You can get through this by keep pushing forward even if it does feel as if you’re wading through treacle.
Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 20)
When you find yourself up against a problem, instead of tackling it head-on, walk around it. You won’t be able to change other people’s views or even persuade them to try another approach but you can control your own reactions. In some cases, the best option will be simply to take a step back.
Aquarius (Jan 21 – Feb 19)
You’re just about to achieve an important goal. Keep pushing forward until you reach your target. It will be tempting to take a break from this but you are so close now, it’s worth making it your main focus. A sign will appear soon that proves you’re making the right decisions.
Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)
Accept the changes that occur as being a normal part of your day. Someone is intent on approaching your usual routines in a different way which makes life unpredictable. Why not surprise them by going along with their suggestions. Everything will turn out fine.
