Horoscope: May 21

Aries (March 21-April 19): When someone compliments you, graciously accept the kind words without worrying about how and when you can repay them.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): You don’t have to be overly concerned with being good to do the right thing. Free yourself from negative thoughts and energy.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You’ll make a friend by doing something other than the usual. Your originality is adorable.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): You are not a blank slate for someone else to write on. Contribute to a conversation. Talk about what you know.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Your domestic environment reflects where you are in life right now — a good reason to tidy and organize it.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’re not motivated by easy targets. If anyone and everyone can join the club, it’s not special.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You have a gift for healing, as well as teaching. You feel compelled to be of service to others.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You want what you want. It won’t be too easy for you to attain this goal, and you’ll be helping others along the way.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your sign’s symbol is a centaur — half-horse, half-human. Now is a good time to channel the horse side.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You suspect that someone likes you for your feisty ambition, though you don’t have to go out of your way to display this now.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ll be in a position to choose your company, so avoid the one who likes to get you all riled up. This person can cause you to spin in circles.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): You are responsible and orderly to a point, and then it’s time to hit the release valve and blow off some steam.

Today’s birthday (May 21): Your curiosity about the world will never be sated. You’ll get answers and ask deeper questions in June. July brings the end of a particular yearning, and new confidence comes over you. You’ll be awarded money in August. A colleague will support and guide you in work that uses your talents and lets you shine. Libra and Taurus people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 24, 49, 1, 32 and 34.
