Your lookahead horoscope for the week: May 12, 2024

HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

Your way with words is one of your strengths but you cannot expect others to agree with everything you say. Don’t waste time trying to prove that you are right and other people are wrong this year – focus all your energy on having fun.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

You make your own luck in life, so don’t feel too sorry for someone who is clearly failing because they have not been trying hard enough. The best way you can help them over the coming week is simply by being a good example.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

Cosmic activity in your sign continues to turn your life upside down in the best possible ways. A sun-Uranus link will encourage you to throw caution to the wind this week and attempt something you never believed was possible – until now!

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

Your ability to look beyond the obvious and see things that other people have missed will work in your favour over the next few days. Don’t be too eager to share what you discover though – use it to improve your own position first.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

Monday’s sun-Uranus union will inspire you to look beyond what less adventurous types consider to be “normal” and try something out of the ordinary. The more you strive to be different from your rivals the more of an advantage you will have.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

Don’t worry about the direction your life appears to be taking because the universe has your back and in a matter of days it will become crystal clear why certain events had to happen. What others see as a loss you will see as a very big gain.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

Deep down you know all the answers, or at least the ones worth having. Make it your aim over the next few days to stop thinking about a dozen different matters at once, so those answers get a chance to filter up from your subconscious mind.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

Your daily horoscope: May 11, 2024

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

A change that you have been fearing can no longer be avoided but once it occurs you will wonder why you got so worked up about it. Compared to other situations you have dealt with in the past this one won’t be much of a challenge.
