Horoscope: May 26
May 26, 2009
Aries (March 21-April 19): You’re serious about doing business, and your professionalism is unparalleled. You still have to win over the other people involved, though. It’s through a bit of silliness that you’ll make a connection.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): One of life’s quizzes has been canceled. And here’s another relief: You won’t have to fight for your principles. All you have to do is live them, which is so much trickier than it sounds.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): You’ll wield all kinds of power today — sensual, intellectual, political. Your presence is definitely respected. However, what makes you the most proud will be the power you wield over your thoughts.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): It’s easier to start over than it is to fix a problem. You’ll get a do-over in a relationship. This time, let your defenses down and show up just as you feel, no pretense. You’re lovable.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You should lean on your loved ones. Otherwise, they don’t get a chance to support you. A support system that doesn’t get used will atrophy.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You like a challenge. If a goal is too easily accomplished, it’s a bore. That said, you need to get a few of those “boring” goals out of the way before you tackle the big ones today.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Opportunities are fleeting. Move fast to catch up. No need for fond farewells. Simply gather yourself and go.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Though you are midstream, you get to begin again. This time, integrate ideas of those with whom you are traveling. When everyone’s say is validated, you will achieve success.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Romance is mysterious. When you seek to create passionate scenarios, they often elude you. And then, when you’re no longer trying, a certain smile rocks your world.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Recent events, some unpleasant, were essential for your success. And now you understand what you must do next. It’s like your feet are planted in the dirt and you’re ready to bloom.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Follow your heart and hire the happy person to assist you — even if it’s your friend. The skills you have cultivated over the last seven years enable you to do the work you want.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): For a project to hold your attention, its reward must include more than money. It must engage your talent and imagination. Focus on projects that attract you on many levels.
Today’s birthday (May 26): You set the bar high this year. You imagine yourself getting to a new place in your career and will quickly progress. There is an important commitment you make in June. August brings travel, new faces and adventure. Pisces and Cancer adore you. Your lucky numbers are 19, 3, 23, 6 and 17.
