Horoscopes Thursday 16th May 2024
Aries 21 March – 20 April
Fleet footed Mercury's angle to deep Pluto may find you irritated if you and another can't agree. The desire to say exactly what you think could be strong. Yet if you do speak out, you might alienate this person. Is this what you want? While you may not feel ready to compromise today, things can change soon. By next week you might have found a solution between you.{copytag:[601]:copytag}
Taurus 21 April – 21 May
Feel put on? If so Taurus, just stick with the facts or the truth and trust all will be well. Issues can arise if you've avoided a tricky matter or omitted a detail to get out of a difficult situation. On the other hand, Mercury's angle to Pluto could coincide with a desire to expose a situation you feel strongly about as your thoughts can be both penetrative and perceptive.
Gemini 22 May – 21 June
Have an instinct that something needs looking into? If so, the current line-up could spur you on to uncover more. An awkward angle suggests you'll find out something that you really needed to know. What you do about it is another matter. Yet this more intense energy is levitated by another more light-hearted influence so there's ample opportunity for delightful meetings and outings with a chance to reminisce, Gemini.
Cancer 22 June – 23 July
If you don't agree on something, you'll need to say so, Cancer. You can have an intense dislike of confrontation but as two influential planetary players square off, your desire to get your point across could seem urgent. Whoever this involves, the sooner you draw that all-important line in the sand the better. Plus, you may be inspired to connect with a teacher or a teaching that opens new doors.
Leo 24 July – 23 August
Getting too emotionally involved in matters could prove overwhelming and draining, while refusing to get drawn into such situations can leave you at peace. A major aspect involving Mercury hints that you may be preoccupied with a matter that won't go away. Looking for a respite? Involving yourself with new people and activities might give you a fresh and welcome perspective.
Virgo 24 August – 23 September
The Moon in your sign means it's time to give yourself some leeway, especially if you've been pushing hard lately. What do you feel about the key issues going on in your life? If you haven't had time to tune in, then try it now. You may get a clear understanding of why things are as they are and what you can do about it. Plus, this is a time of opportunity for you, so do stay alert.
Libra 24 September – 23 October
You may not be in the mood to bite your tongue and spare someone's feelings if a conflict has been building between you. It could come to a head, and as stubborn as you might feel about an issue, rest assured, they feel just the same. Want this relationship to continue? You'll need to find a way out of this impasse. If you aren't too bothered, then it's best to drop it for now, Libra.
Scorpio 24 October – 22 November
Lunar ties can be a call to connect the dots and set your priorities so that you know where you're going. And yet Mercury's angle with Pluto could make you hyper-critical, and you might blame yourself for anything that's gone wrong. Even so Scorpio, over the coming weeks you'll realise this isn't true, and that everything is currently working towards the best outcome.
Sagittarius 23 November – 21 December
With the Moon, the planet of feelings scudding across your sector of ambition and responsibility, both head and heart may be focused on the tasks you need to do to keep things on the move. More urgent matters might also be on your mind, and perhaps you need to be kinder to yourself in this regard. With quicksilver Mercury angling towards deep Pluto, you'll feel you should speed up, but try to slow down, Archer.
Capricorn 22 December – 20 January
While certain plans might be heading to a happy conclusion, there may be one that appears to have come to a halt. If things have reached a dead-end, then you could be more than ready for a breakthrough. Paradoxically, this can happen not by overthinking things but by allowing your intuition to lead the way. Some downtime can allow your ingenuity to come to the fore.
Aquarius 21 January – 19 February
Connecting with people online and off, could give you much food for thought. With a strong focus on your sector of communication, you may benefit from getting to know someone with a confident approach to life. Their uncompromising honesty and courage might fire you up to rethink some of your ideas and principles. What you learn from them can be priceless, or they learn from you!
Pisces 20 February – 20 March
If there has been an imbalance of give and take in your life, the Mercury/Pluto angle today could encourage some discussion. Have tensions been building? If so, this alignment might cause feelings to spill over. And yet the right words used skilfully, can quickly soothe a situation, and help you find ways to resolve it. Just don't be too quick to share your frustration or irritation, Pisces.
