Horoscopes for 5/3
By Patricia El Koury
Aries Finding time to sleep or falling asleep might be an issue for you lately Aries. If it seems like there are just so many things you want to do, or that you’re making mental lists while you’re nodding off, try some different methods to relax. Perhaps meditation would work? Your poem-scope is The Descent of Alette and your compartment is a bus.
Taurus Making some new friends is a great way to add variety to the pathways you usually take Taurus. This week you’ll want to focus on nuturing these friendships and also maybe nurturing a pet or house plant, metaphorical or otherwise. Is there some project you keep thinking about, but haven’t acted on? This could be that pet. Your short-story-scope is “Letter to a Young Lady in Paris” and your plant is clover.
Gemini You and your oldest friends may be embarking on some strange discussions and spiritual journeys lately Gemini. Something you may want to think about is how this relationship has evolved if at all over the years. You guys could have so many more good times together if you could just let go of the old days a little. Your movie-scope is Adam and Paul and your crutch is a warm jacket.
Cancer Are people treating you like an outsider lately Cancer? Something is going on in the background that you can’t quite decipher and someone owes you an explanation. While you’ve been carefully planning a future, they’ve been working their own agenda. Your artist-scope is Hannah Hoch and your medium is the everyday.
Leo Coworkers or people you have to answer to don’t seem to understand how hard you work behind the scenes Leo. Maybe now is a good time to sit down face-to-face and clearly lay out what you’ve got on your plate. You may find that they are empathetic thus making for a lower stress time. Don’t get agressive or defensive though; be articulate. Your book-scope is Naked Lunch and your path is not linear.
Virgo In your everyday life you probably have all kinds of fascinating, heartbreaking, and funny events going on Virgo. Maybe they aren’t your experiences exclusively, but there is something universal in the specific. Pay attention and document! Your YouTube-scope is the Von Foxies’ “Seattle” and your pattern is plaid.
Libra This week you should be hunkering down somewhere and writing Libra. Whether this is academic or creative writing, isn’t clear, but put your best effort toward this project. The culmination of your hard work will be worth it this time around since influential people are taking note. Your diner-scope is the Hurricane Cafe and your color is red.
Scorpio You may want to consider staying in one place for awhile Scorpio. You’re always on the go or in transition between destinations. Your physical and mental health might benefit from some downtime so plan to take a mini sabbatical from life. Your band-scope is Bedhead and your breath should be slower.
Sagittarius Don’t rely so much on humor this week Sagittarius. Some authority figures, who are usually more responsive to your antics, are not in the mood this week so be careful how you tread. Try to see if there is something you can do to help them out or carry the load. Maybe just listening to how their day was, or simply giving them some alone time would be helpful to the situation. Your song-scope is “Lost” by the Mary Onettes and your shape is a square.
Capricorn This is a good week to get back to the real world Capricorn. With midterms this week in most classes, you’ll want to form study groups or pencil in some time to hang out in the library. Don’t overload though, the essentials are probably in your notes and when it’s all over, your friends are going to want to head out for drinks. Your game-scope is air hockey and your food is pizza.
Aquarius Your schedule is getting overwhelming Aquarius. Maybe there are some people who could help you this time around? Think about all the favors you’ve done for people and enlist their help. Be careful not to guilt them into assisting you though. You don’t need to add backlash to your karma. Your Monty-Python-scope is The Life of Brian and you need new socks.
Pisces This week you may want to head to the art museum or somewhere that can inspire you to new creativity Pisces. Perhaps an excursion into the weird is due now. Collaboration on creative projects may yield surprisingly satisfying work. Also there’s a pile of paperwork that needs to be filed or dealt with, so don’t delay on that or you may not get the downtime you need. Your destination-scope is the Warhol exhibit coming soon and your color is orange.
