Happy Birthday for Thursday, May 16, 2024: You have a distinctive style and are never boring. You have a wild streak in you that you keep under control. This is a slower paced year that brings opportunities to rejuvenate yourself and focus on important relationships. Seek out people who want the best for you.

• Aries ★★★

  March 21-April 19

  Today you might have to put your emotional and practical considerations second to someone else. This is because you’re in a situation where someone else’s needs come first. (You’re not being a martyr; it’s just what’s happening.) Home crafts and getting organized will please you. Tonight: Money concerns.

• Taurus ★★★★

  April 20-May 20

  This is a lovely day for romance! In fact, you won’t be able to conceal your feelings from others because you’re wearing your heart on your sleeve today. You will also feel more protective and nurturing today, especially toward children or someone special. Tonight: Financial disputes.

• Gemini ★★★★

  May 21-June 20

  This is an excellent day to relax at home among familiar surroundings. It will give you a pleasant feeling to “get away from it all.” We all need days to try to restore ourselves before we sally forth into the world again. A conversation with a female family member could be significant. Tonight: Research.

• Cancer ★★★

  June 21-July 22

  Your communications with others today matter. This is because you feel you have something important to say and you want to be heard. Be aware that your thinking might be influenced by the past today. Take a moment before you react to someone. Resist giving in to a habitual response. Tonight: Disagreements.

• Leo ★★★

  July 23-Aug. 22

  Today you’re concerned with money, cash flow and your possessions. You might want to take care of something or repair it, or you might want to protect it from someone. Perhaps you don’t want to loan something to anyone. Think twice before you spend money today. Tonight: Cooperate.

• Virgo ★★★★

  Aug. 23-Sept. 22

  Today the Moon is in your sign. This happens for two and a half days every month, and when this occurs, it makes you more emotional than usual. (This happens to each of us.) However, the good news is that your luck will get a tiny boost. Ask the universe for a favor! Tonight: Avoid controversy.

• Libra ★★★

  Sept. 23-Oct. 22

  You might be tempted to withdraw and keep your feelings secret today. It’s easy to second-guess yourself or have self-doubts. “I’m naval lint.” (The position of the Moon today encourages unconscious fears.) You might want to explore mystical or spiritual disciplines that deal with hidden truths. Tonight: Financial disagreements.

• Scorpio ★★★

  Oct. 23-Nov. 21

  Your emotional contact with friends as well as members of groups and organizations is important to you today. In fact, you might feel more protective and supportive than usual to a friend, especially someone in need. You might even feel jealous if they pay more attention to someone else. Ouch. Tonight: Listen.

• Sagittarius ★★★

  Nov. 22-Dec. 21

  Professional and business concerns are your focus today. You also might be concerned about what people think of you. In fact, you are noticed more than usual today, which means a public argument or any display of emotion will register with others. (Is it time for some damage control?) Tonight: Work.

• Capricorn ★★★★

  Dec. 22-Jan. 19

  Today you have a strong urge to “do something different.” You want to break free from your daily routine. If you can travel, perfect! However, if you can’t travel, you can certainly explore your own neighborhood or city. Give yourself an exciting diversion! Tonight: Be supportive.

• Aquarius ★★★

  Jan. 20-Feb. 18

  Today your emotions are more intense. (If you don’t notice this, others will.) You also might be concerned with secrets, especially because something behind the scenes might stir up feelings of jealousy. That’s because feelings of possessiveness might arise today. Tonight: Patience.

• Pisces ★★★

  Feb. 19-March 20

  Today the Moon is opposite your sign. This will turn your attention to your most personal relationships – friendships, partners and spouses. If you have conflict with anyone, it will be more emotional. Be smart and agree to compromise – at least for today. Tonight: Show respect.
