Horoscopes: Saturday, May 4, 2024

ARIES (March 21-April 19). True growth begins with a you-to-you embrace. An openhearted self-acceptance will lead you to accept a number of other things. The more you can accept, the bigger your heart, world and horizons will be.    

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re the constant. You show up when it matters with a steady hand to hold. You’ll elevate the scene, shower loved ones with the praise they need to hear and let people see themselves through your lens painted in hues of adoration.       

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). One of the many paradoxes of humanity — we need to feel like we belong, but we also need to feel special. You’ll stay aware of what you do to fulfil these needs. You shouldn’t have to feel superior to feel worthy of love.       

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Though you can’t stand the idea someone might be mad at you, it’s not something to fear or avoid. It’s better to risk it than be overly accommodating with someone who doesn’t deserve it.        

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Love will transcend the confines of the ego. You’d like to know that a person’s feelings for you are deep and wide. There’s something incredibly comforting in the depths. It’s as though there’s an entire ocean created just to hold you.       

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You crave and fear something at the same time. It’s too soon to make a move on the matter. Play it low-key. Keep learning. Tonight you’ll have a moment of luck.       

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Sure, it’s good to know where you and your work are in relation to the rest of the world. But this is more of a check-in than a constant assessment, which would be exhausting and would benefit no one, least of all you.       

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). A mind encumbered by existing beliefs about how the world works cannot readily absorb new ideas about how the world might, could or will work. You eschew certainty and open yourself to the possibility of a fresh and different reality.       

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll tune in to the whispers of trends. Listen, but before you act, wait until the whispers become a voice less faint. There are words too soft to be taken seriously. These words can so easily drift into a shifting wind.       

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Prevent interruptions, as they are too costly. Not only do they require you to stop, but upon returning to your original work you will have to go through more mechanics — back track, find your mood, work up some momentum, etc.       

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your natural impressionability will work for you. You’ll fill your eyes, mind and experience with brilliance and become brilliant. You will take in beauty and become even more beautiful.       

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). New and augmented income sources are out there for you. Research, investigate and, above all, socialize because people sharing their personal experiences will teach you the most. If you can’t socialize, a podcast will be the next best thing.       

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 4). You’ll be known for the acts of heart you so graciously contribute throughout the year. You’ll gravitate to avenues where everyone can achieve meaningful gains and transcend zero-sum mentalities of winning. More highlights: Brilliant unself-consciousness. A financial puzzle gets solved. You’ll know a settled kind of feeling that you’ve finally arrived. Scorpio and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 3, 29, 5 and 17.
