Horoscopes: Tuesday, May 7, 2024

ARIES (March 21-April 19). By honoring personal boundaries and staying true to yourself, you’ll come into a blend of politeness and stubbornness — even when the circumstances seem bent toward leading you in a different direction.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Aligning with like-minded individuals can amplify your voice, but it can also limit the music. Ideal teams are diverse. Together you’re like a choir. Most choirs don’t sing in unison all the time. You need different voices to make harmony.       

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ve an innate ability to pitch and persuade. You believe in your ideas and you refine them every time you present, which sharpens you and deepens your passion and purpose. Trust your instincts and let your genuine enthusiasm lead.       

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Financial matters will strain relationships if approached with emotional volatility. Adopt a mindset of financial neutrality. It will reduce unnecessary tension and facilitate better money management.       

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). We don’t often see ourselves how others see us. They’ll see what isn’t there and what is very much there. Just keep in mind, if you are called to a job, it means someone thought you would be good for it, and maybe they see something in you that you don’t. Yet.       

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Shouldn’t friendships sometimes feel like a cozy blanket on a chilly day? If you always have to do extra things to make relationships bloom, you start to wonder if they just aren’t a natural fit. Real love is like wildflowers.       

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Unless you’ve just consulted a weird video, you typically don’t ask your dishwasher to bake a cake. Just because something doesn’t serve the function you want it to serve doesn’t mean it’s broken.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The spiritual and emotional wounds of the past have a way of healing in quiet moments without your tinkering or involvement. As it is with your body, healing happens naturally and can’t be willed.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It is possible that the one who lacks confidence and command is also highly accomplished, extremely knowledgeable and has much to offer you. You may also encounter the opposite scenario with those who know nothing, and loudly.       

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). A responsibility is like a tiny pebble in your shoe — it may seem insignificant, but when you’re continually stepping on it, it will become the foremost thing on your mind.       

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Most people act differently depending on the context. It’s normal and true of you, too, to some degree. However, when the inconsistency is glaring, you wisely perceive the red flag and proceed accordingly.   

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’re a wonderful friend. You will boost someone’s self-esteem when they’re feeling low. You’ll see the value in them that they may not notice themselves.       

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 7). You’ll make small changes that have a big impact. Your economic status moves to match your dreams, and more importantly, your strength and power grow to meet the demands of this exciting new cycle. More highlights: A dear influence makes domestic life sweet. Your reputation will attract those who need you and those who can help your mission, too. Leo and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 4, 10, 21 and 13.
