Georgia Nicols horoscopes for May 6, 2016

Moon Alert

We have the “all clear” today to do business until 9 p.m. Chicago time. The New Moon is in Taurus.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Every New Moon is an opportunity to set intentions and make resolutions about how to make something better. Today’s New Moon is the best day of the year to think about how to boost your income or get a better job because, for you, this Moon is all about money, cash flow, earnings and possessions.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today the only New Moon in your sign all year is here. That’s why this is the best day of the year to take a realistic look in the mirror and ask how you can improve the impression you create on your world. New wardrobe goodies? New hairstyle? Ideas?

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Some of you are involved in secret love affairs or secret activities. This may involve someone from the past who is back in your life. Be careful this does not create dissension in existing relationships, which already feel the stress of Mars opposite your sign.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is the best day of the year to ponder the importance of friendships in your life. Do you hang out with quality people? Do you like your friends? And if you want to have more friends, the advice is simple: Be friendly!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today the only New Moon at the top of your chart all year is taking place. This is the perfect day to think about your long-term goals for the future. For starters, are you headed in the direction you want to go? Are you following your goals or the goals of someone else?

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is one of the best days of the year to ask how you can get further education or training to help you in your job. Or perhaps travel will enrich your life? Think about what you can do that will expand your world in a meaningful way.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a great day to think how you can reduce your debt and improve any agreements you have about shared property. Perhaps you want to fine-tune where your responsibilities begin and end with someone? If so, this is the day.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Today the only New Moon all year that is opposite your sign is taking place, which means this is the best day of the year to think how you can improve your closest friendships and partnerships. What can you do? Ideas?

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a great day to ponder how to improve your job or how you do your job or even your attitude to your job because these are all interrelated. A different attitude to the same job is a world of difference! (You can just test this out.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Today’s New Moon is your chance to ponder how you balance work and play in your life. You are hardworking and often incorporate your play into something that improves your community. How often do you give yourself chances to express your creativity or just have plain old fun?

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You can use today’s New Moon to your advantage. Just take a moment and think about what you can do to improve your relationships with family members. In addition, what can you do to improve things at home?

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Today’s New Moon is all about communications for your sign. Are you a clear communicator with others? Do you really listen when others are speaking? What might you do to improve your communications, especially with your daily contacts — siblings, neighbors and relatives.
