Today’s horoscope for May 16 sees one sign lose sight of their goals, as another can’t get a moment to themselves
It’s Friday, May 16, and one star sign deals with issues from colleagues, while another feels frustrated with changes.
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)
You can’t seem to get a moment to yourself. Your mood is up and down and your thoughts are all over the place. You’re thinking about relationships, social events and outside responsibilities and you can’t help wondering how you fit everything in.
Taurus (Apr 21 – May 21)
A number of issues that arise early on will keep you on your toes. Working with a large group of people will be frustrating for a few different reasons. Differences in opinions cause arguments and tension. If you sense your patience is wearing thin, step outside and distance yourself from it all.
Gemini (May 22 – June 21)
Disagreements behind the scenes will pull you away from your primary goals. One issue is that a person who loves to argue just can’t seem to hold back their opinions. If you can lose yourself in a personal task or hobby, you will find it easier to handle setbacks and challenges.
Cancer (June 22 – July 23)
You enjoy a little friendly rivalry but not when it gets to a point where someone is being dishonest and deceitful. The behaviour of a new colleague is making you more cautious than normal. When discussions turn to money, remember to keep friendships and finances separate.
Leo (July 24 – Aug 23)
You are among a growing group of people who are feeling frustrated by changes happening around you. The services you once depended on are being reduced. A local journalist is taking notice of a campaign which aims to improve your neighbourhood and enhance the quality of life for everyone.
Virgo (Aug 24 – Sept 23)
An unexpected offer will be received and this will give you something exciting to anticipate. It will also make you feel slightly anxious but you are determined to look on the bright side. Your positive energy is contagious and as the day goes on, you will get closer to reaching a cherished goal.
Libra (Sept 24 – Oct 23)
You’ve always been generous and giving. It pleases you to give gifts as much as it pleases your family and friends to receive them. Even so, splashing out on an expensive item for a partner might backfire. It could come across, today, as if you are trying to buy their affection.
Scorpio (Oct 24 – Nov 22)
It doesn’t matter what other people think. You don’t need permission to do what you want to do. Let go of the need to please others and think about pleasing yourself. Arguments take it out of you emotionally. Take some time later to relax and recharge.
Sagittarius (Nov 23 – Dec 21)
A lot of your time will be focused on your personal and social goals, with a sprinkle of good fortune thrown in to keep it all enjoyable. There’ll be a spirit of cooperation in everything you do. Juggling multiple projects will ensure a bright and promising future.
Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 20)
Career matters are progressing well. You can expect to make advancement towards a professional goal even if at times you are sidetracked by fun activities. A surprise invitation will add some excitement to your off-duty hours. A playful romance will keep you entertained tonight.
Aquarius (Jan 21 – Feb 19)
After a long spell of focusing on other people, their needs and how to keep everyone happy, you’re ready to think about yourself. A new chapter is starting. You feel inspired to share your love of music and art with someone you love. You appreciate the joys of life’s finer experiences.
Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)
You can go through all sorts and still come through it when everyone looks after each other. It will be such an honour to be a part of a team whose main aim is to support and encourage people who need an extra boost. Be proud to be involved in something so positive.
