Horoscope for Tuesday, May 19, 2020

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions from 3:30 to 9:30 p.m. Chicago time. After that, the moon moves from Aries into Taurus.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You are quick, impulsive, creative and let’s face it, sometimes you have a short fuse. Therefore, resist the urge to be in conflict with a parent or boss today because this might happen. You don’t need this. They don’t need this. Nobody needs this. You get the picture.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Something going on behind the scenes is unsettling for you, which is why you might find yourself at odds with someone from another culture. Or you might want to argue with someone about politics, religion or racial issues.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Without even meaning to, you might find yourself in a situation where you have to defend yourself with a friend or a member of a group. But do you really have to do this? Don’t take the bait. Avoid this conflict. You don’t need to defend yourself. Relax.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is a classic day to be in conflict with someone in authority — a parent, boss, police person, you name it. Be aware of the fact that if you do this, your confrontation will be noticed by others because you are high visitiliby today. Think before you act or speak.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today it’s easy to be caught up in a little drama about philosophical concepts or something to do with politics and religion. People are very entrenched in their own views. It’s hard to change their minds because there are none so deaf as those who are wearing headphones.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Disputes about shared property, inheritances, insurance issues, or the cost of a social event or the cost of educating and taking care of kids — these are just some likely topics — will likely arise. Steer clear of these disagreements because they will be power struggles.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

The ironic thing about your sign is you are an excellent debater and yet, you want harmony in your surroundings. Don’t take the bait today. In other words, resist the urge to end up in a power struggle with a partner or close friend. Does it really matter who is right? Relax.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Avoid nasty debates with coworkers, customers and supervisors because they could materialize and then someone might say something they will regret. Hey, you have to work with these people or see these customers again. Keep your shirt on.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Parents must be patient with kids today to avoid hissy fits and meltdowns. Likewise, romantic partners might suddenly argue because they need to prove a point. Basically, today is ripe for ego battles and power struggles. You don’t need this.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Do what you can to keep the peace at home today, especially with mom or with female family members. People’s egos can be so tender. Don’t hurt anyone’s feelings; hopefully, someone will not hurt yours. Don’t make a big deal about anything today — be accepting.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Today you are too keen to make your point. If someone is in error, you will correct them. If you think someone doesn’t grasp something, you want to educate them. This is actually a poor day to do this because people are touchy. Let it go.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Money disputes are classic today. You might be upset about salary issues, cash flow, or perhaps about something you own? Whatever the case, arguments today will only make people feel resentful. These discussions will become power struggles. It ain’t worth it.

If Your Birthday Is Today

This means it’s time to identify goals to determine what you want for yourself in the next few years. Be pro-active and physically energetic about going after what you want. Just do it!
