Horoscope today: Your daily guide for Thursday, May 2, 2024

Read what the stars mean for you today, from Taurus to Gemini

Aries (March 20 – April 19)

Recently, events cornered you into standing your ground with somebody as tricky as they are temperamental. While it’s true that as an Aries you’re able to take a tough line, that doesn’t mean you enjoy it. The secret? Discuss the issue in question soon — and the more frank you are, the better.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Only days ago, you were still convinced that, with a little creative thinking and a lot of patience, you’d find a solution for certain ongoing differences with others. The odds are good that you’ll realise the individuals in question actually enjoy those clashes and will simply find other justifications for a good battle.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

One of your greatest gifts, as a Gemini and being a quick thinking air sign, is your knack for turning unsettling events around. At the moment, in fact, you’ve overcome certain tricky issues. The challenge? Not everybody is happy with your plans. The sooner you explain why they’re worthwhile, the better.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

You don’t think of it until you’re faced with somebody who truly doesn’t notice and, in fact, doesn’t care about what others are contending with. Yet the fact is, characteristics of this nature go so deep within an individual’s makeup that changes aren’t just unlikely, they’re nearly impossible to make.

Leo (July 23 – August 22)

While you’re best known for your charm and theatrical streak, you’re also a softie in the sense that you’ll do all you can to support those who are struggling. At the moment, however, you’re urged to back off and allow others to tackle these issues themselves. You’ll soon realise how wise this was.

Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

Usually, you double-check plans before taking action. However, with things moving so swiftly, even a simple review will be time consuming. The trick? Proceed. But ensure it’s clear that because your plans are hasty, changes are inevitable. That alone will relieve others’ concerns.

Libra (September 23 – October 22)

As a Libra, obviously you want to help those who have ridden out a tricky period and are in need of support. However, you’re not the only person who can lend a hand. Take time to think about this. In the meantime, explain that you care but are unable to do much, at least for now.

Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

While you, as a conscientious Scorpio, are taking the twists and turns you’re facing seriously, certain individuals seem to find them an exciting or entertaining challenge. This fascinates and worries you. Express your concerns. Others may brush them off, but soon they’ll listen and are likely to take action.

Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)

It’s not that you’ve avoided discussing certain matters, but you’re short of facts and, with things moving so swiftly, catching up has been nearly impossible. The good news is everybody else is as mystified as you are. That being the case, organise a brainstorming session. The sooner, the better.

Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)

As one of the three earth signs, you don’t just benefit from an ability to spot and take advantage of good ideas, you’ve a talent for winning others over to those plans without unnecessary dramas. This simple approach won’t just be helpful this week, it will prevent you wasting time on pointless analysis.

Aquarius (January 20 – February 17)

It’s not that you’re shy. On the contrary, you thrive on a lively exchange of ideas and being forced to consider new concepts or pursuits that previously hadn’t crossed your mind. The challenge? With things moving so swiftly, you may find yourself making those changes before you know it.

Pisces (February 18 – March 19)

Most of those around you have learnt to tune out the seemingly endless complaints of certain people. However, you’ve taken these to heart and feel you must do whatever you can to help. Ignoring these may seem unkind. However, these dramas have a powerful and lasting role in the lives of those involved.

If it's your birthday tomorrow...

If you feel as if life’s taking you on a tour of unfamiliar situations and cornering you into spending time with those whose thinking is foreign to you, that’s correct. Each of these is about broadening your horizons, although the actual benefits remain unclear. For now, focus on shedding distracting activities and alliances. Instead, explore just for the sake of it. The results will be as exciting as they are unexpected.
