Horoscope for Thursday, April 30, 2020

Moon Alert

We have the all clear to shop and do business. The moon is in Leo.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Guard against impulse-shopping because you’re tempted. (Oh yeah!) You’ll also be tempted to make spontaneous decisions that affect your finances, cash flow or perhaps something that you own. Keep your receipts. Think twice before you act!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Mercury and the sun are both in your sign, and Mercury is lined up with wacky Uranus. This is why you feel so restless! It’s almost as if there’s more electricity in the air? You are full of ideas and ready to jump the gun. Caution: Don’t do anything you later regret. Be smart and hedge your bets.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

The planet Mercury is your ruler and today it is lined up with impulsive Uranus, which means you feel restless and vaguely excited about something. (You might not even know what, but you feel it.) Unexpected news that is hidden or behind the scenes might surprise you.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Someone you know — a friend or a member of a group — might do something that amazes you. They might have a clever idea that impresses you. Possibly, you will meet someone new who is unusual or avant-garde? It’s not a boring day!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Conversations with bosses, parents and anyone in a position of authority will be hard to predict. An exchange with someone might delight you or anger you. Whatever happens, keep cool. Don’t quit your day job. (If you still have one.) You don’t want to end up with egg on your face. (Ketchup helps.)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Anything related to travel plans, higher education or the media will hold some surprises for you. Quite likely, you’re not traveling, but for those who are, your plans will change. Even matters related to medicine and the law will be unpredictable as well.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Double check issues related to shared property, inheritances, insurance matters and anything related to the government because things might not unfold as you expect them to today. Prepare for a few surprises. Could be good — could be not so good.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

A conversation with a partner or close friend will be lively today. The reason for the excitement might be because one of you has a great idea. Or possibly, somebody feels rebellious and wants a change in the relationship? This is the kind of day where people want independence and freedom. Hmmm.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You might hear surprising news related to your health or perhaps even a pet. Certainly, anything that is work-related will be unexpected. Machinery could break down. Computer crashes are likely and high-tech stuff will be unreliable because life is full of surprises today!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Parents should be extra vigilant because this is an accident-prone day for your kids. Therefore, know where they are at all times. Protect them from potentially hazardous situations. Likewise, romance is rocky today and also full of surprises. Yikes!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Your home routine will change today. Small appliances might break down or a minor breakage could occur. Domestic arguments might break out because people are defiant or rebellious. Patience will be your best ally today - no question. Don’t go looking for trouble — it will find you!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Be mindful today. It’s important to be careful and pay attention to everything you say and do because this is an accident-prone day for your sign. This applies to whatever you say and also whatever you do. Be especially careful driving, biking, jogging - whatever. Think before you speak!

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Paul Gross (1959) shares your birthday. You love beauty and harmony. You are introspective, determined and stubborn. This will be a more relaxed year for you. Because your interactions with others will be important, do your best to cooperate with others. Look for ways to be kind and helpful. Be open to engaging with others because business and personal relationships will benefit you.
