Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, May 18, 2010: This year, you often stop mid-sentence to rethink what you are about to say. Your listening skills increase, to the extent that you are even more aware of your words! If single, you could meet someone while simply running an errand. If attached, the two of you enjoy colorful conversations. Leo can be an anchor.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) •••• Don’t worry if you are a turtle crawling along in the a.m., because you could transform into a hare darting along by the p.m. Your creativity opens up.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) •••• Keep conservations flowing. You might be uncomfortable with everything that you are hearing. A boss, though vague, continues to meet your standards.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ••• Curb possessiveness or a feeling of insecurity. You might want to rethink a situation involving your personal life. Given time, you will walk past the issue.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) ••••• Use the morning hours to the max. You could be saddened by some news that you hear. Let that feeling pass, as you will hear more that is less disheartening.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ••• Take it easy in the a.m., when you just might not be as vigorous or energetic as you might like. You could be far more depressed about a situation than you realize.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ••• You could be overwhelmed by everything that you are saddled with. Ask for support in a meeting, or make calls to encourage others to pitch in.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) •••• Stay on top of a personal situation. Tackle a project when your enthusiasm is high. You’ll get results, and faster at that.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) •••• Keep reaching out for a loved one or someone you care about at a distance. Your creativity surges, encouraging you to take the lead.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) •••• A close associate wants a lot of your time. You feel pressured, and you need to let that person know. Otherwise, there will be an undercurrent of dissatisfaction running between you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)••••• Others come toward you. Listen, but don’t necessarily decide to do anything more. For a key person, you have done enough already.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ••• An easy pace might be nice, but certain matters must get done, and quickly at that. Block another’s disruption, and let this person know that you will be more available later in the day.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) •••• Be smart, and don’t let someone’s grumpiness filter into your day. A meeting serves as a cheerleading session to get a project off the ground.
