Your Horoscope for Friday, May 4
ARIES (March 21-April 19) ++++
You have a lot on your mind, which could be affecting various aspects of your life. Understand what is happening between you and an authority figure. Even though things seem heated right now, given time, you will work through the issue at hand. TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
You will be on top of a personal matter. It might be important to detach and take the long-range perspective. Try to avoid making any choices just yet. You are likely to figure out what needs to happen by observing and relaxing. GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
You could be in a situation that isn’t likely to be easily resolved. How you handle a personal matter could be determined by the events that play out over the next few days. Keep smiling, and make the most of what is happening. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Pressure could be unusually high. The perfectionist in you wants everything to turn out just right. However, with so many responsibilities to handle, you could be feeling stressed. You might want to simplify or postpone a commitment.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Stay clearheaded and centered. You have what it takes to make a situation work. Getting a difficult person to move off his or her position might not be doable. Bypass the issue, if possible. Trust that this person will see the light of day when he or she is ready. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Defer to friends, especially if you feel as if you can’t get certain situation under control. Recognize the part of you that prefers some chaos and a little less control. A relationship builds with fewer restraints and demands. You have a lot to smile about!
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might feel as if a blast from your past is heading your way, or will soon. You could have a difficult time getting into the moment, as your mind seems to drift to the past few days. Stay close to home, and flow with the moment.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) A call might be very difficult to make, but necessary. Opting out is not the way to go. Trust in your ability to work through what many people cannot. Your sense of direction and desire to touch base with an older friend dominates. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Investigate a big opportunity, even if you initially see it as a serious risk. Weigh the pros and cons before deciding what to do. No matter how you dress up a situation, it might be very different at the core. You could be pleasantly surprised. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
You beam while others seem very serious-minded. You accept what could be a very difficult situation. Question less. You will witness someone reveal a lot more than he or she had intended to.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Your positive, forward-looking attitude allows you the flexibility to turn a situation around. You could be stunned by what your drive and consistency bring forth. A reversal can be used to improve a situation. Detach and look for the key.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might find that someone really wants to connect with you but doesn’t know how. In any case, what occurs could be memorable for both of you. A friend might become a lot more, as you realize his or her emotional effect on your well-being.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY (May 4) This year you have an opportunity to solidify what you value in your life. Honor a change that could drop extra responsibility on you.
