Star Gazing
Horoscope for May 2010
By Dan Liebman
George Clooney
SIGN: Taurus
BORN: May 6, 1961
WHERE: Lexington, Kentucky
TAURUS
April 21 - May 22
Anyone taking on mild-mannered Taurus is in for a surprise. You’re competitive, witty and ready for battle all month long. But you’re generous as always. May sees you helping a friend through a personal crisis and negotiating a late-month family dispute.
GEMINI
May 23 - June 21
You’re everyone’s coach this month, as you help prepare others for their big moments. However, don’t miss out on your own major opportunity, which surfaces around the 21st. Also, be cautious not to reveal personal information.
CANCER
June 22 - July 22
Size matters this month. Make big plans, look at the broad picture and expand your goals. After the 17th, be cautious about any deal that seems too good to be true — it is. Late in the month, your home becomes a haven for a stream of eclectic personalities.
LEO
July 23 - August 22
There’s a twin focus on finance and creativity this month, and you can increase your income through a craft or hobby. After beating about the bush, relatives are more upfront about what they want from you.
VIRGO
August 23 - September 22
Someone twists your words, and it’s best to say little — or have a witness around — during the weeks of the 10th and 17th. If seeking a partner, find someone who knows the meaning of the word “equal.”
LIBRA
September 23 - October 22
It’s a winding journey, but you reach a professional or personal goal by the 31st. Along the path, you meet unusual people and take on an unexpected job. Be cautious around the 20th that you don’t promise too much.
SCORPIO
October 23 - November 21
There’s only one rule this month, and it’s don’t be intimidated. You’re surrounded by control freaks, but remember — no one can compete with your secret weapon of composure.
SAGITTARIUS
November 22 - December 22
Pool ideas, compromise and don’t let your ego get in the way. If you can do all that, you’ll accomplish an extraordinary amount of meaningful work. Your timing can be off after the 20th.
CAPRICORN
December 23 - January 20
The month gets off to a rocky start and a possible power struggle. Things are on a smoother course starting on the 10th — professionally and personally — thanks to your persistence and resourcefulness.
AQUARIUS
January 21 - February 19
Avoid negative thinking. Concentrate on your achievements — even the minor ones — rather than mistakes. Less is more is the theme of the month. If you want to be noticed, try a subtle approach.
PISCES
February 20 - March 20
Ever-curious Pisces suffers from a rare case of information overload. The rumours are better than the facts, and it’s important to separate the two. Someone who’s been distant becomes more attentive. Late May is an ideal time to ask tough questions.
ARIES
March 21 - April 20
You learn that you were wrong about a person’s intentions. Don’t let your Aries pride get in the way of correcting an error. It’s an excellent month to take on the role of goodwill ambassador.
