22 MIDWEEK MAY 11, 2022
RELEASE DATE—Sunday, May 8, 2022 RELEASE DATE—Sunday, May 8, 2022
BY MADAM LICHTENSTEIN
The cosmos sends our love missives into overdrive. We live and love large. Take your greatest emotions into the center of the action and see what happens.
TAURUS (APRIL 21-MAY 21)
If a light is suddenly turned on in one or more of your psychological dark cor- ners, start to celebrate, Taurus. Not only are there no goblins and ghosts lurking in there, but there is also nothing much there to fear at all. Keep yourself open to the wonderful possibilities of the unknown now. You find that there is much more treasure than trash.
GEMINI (MAY22-JUNE21)
Geminis need to be around people to feel comfortable. Now, the fates deliver you more than a few invitations designed to assuage any loneliness and to pump you up. Enjoy any social activity and see how far and long you can take it. The next few weeks will bring you into the orbit of some fairly fascinating and fun-filled folks.
CANCER (JUNE22-JULY23)
Let’s continue to focus on your career, Cancer, as the planets keep charging up this sector for you. You may want to postpone some big professional decisions but I advise that you not delay too much longer. Let your innate, happy dispo- sition and love shine through and onto others. The feelings will reciprocate and your path to accelerated success.
LEO (JULY24-AUGUST23)
It’s time to scratch those itchy travel paws, Leo. Life has been too cool and se- date. Your need to get out of your usual routine may be too tempting to resist, especially because so many people are reaching out with love and connection. Plan what you can, and go and see where your curiosity can lead you. Wow!
VIRGO (AUGUST24-SEPTEMBER23)
Virgos have a certain something about them that is not only enticing but also positively heady. You attract anyone you desire and find that others seem
to gravitate into your tempting orbit. What will you do with all of this love energy? I suggest that you use it to reinforce a current romance or, if you are on the prowl, find your soul mate.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER24-OCTOBER23)
Libras always seem to seek fairness, balance and diplomacy. Now, you find that your ability to schmooze others and bring warring parties to the negotiation table is in top form. Use your personal charisma to strengthen relationships and bring people together. If not you, then who? If not now, then when?
SCORPIO (OCTOBER24-NOVEMBER22)
Hard work not only brings great rewards, but the work will also not be as hard as you initially think, Scorpio. You have the ability to get others to pitch in and help you. Map out what needs to be done and reach out with your compelling message. Many hands make for light work, and those same hands are ready to relax and party later.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER23-DECEMBER22)
Your creativity reaches a high note now, Sagittarius, as you generate artistic ideas faster than ever before. What can you create that not only can become a personal masterpiece but can also help you bring people together for a great and enriching time? There may also be a bit of romance mixing in with of the festivities. Ho, ho, ho.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER23-JANUARY20)
Now is the time to bring family together and create new and happy memories. Not only are you expansive and open to the possibilities, but you also have
an uncanny knack to understand what others need. So, show how adept you are at bringing others together, Capricorn. Weave together connections even between estranged relatives. See where it leads.
AQUARIUS (JANUARY21-FEBRUARY19)
Whatever you have to say, Aquarius, say it. Others listen and respond. You
are filled with great ideas and important plans that set your life’s course in a positive direction. Use the extra amounts of charisma and charm you now have to sway anyone to any one of your ideas. This rare talent can lead to the greater good. Help heal the world.
PISCES (FEBRUARY20-MARCH20)
Treat yourself to something fun and heartwarming, Pisces. Life has been more stressful and there is nothing nicer than spoiling yourself (and select others) a little bit. You deserve a reward and some time to simply enjoy life. If money is tight, find ways to treat yourself in more affordable ways. Don’t they say that the best things in life are free?
ARIES (MARCH21-APRIL20)
You are not only in the center of your own universe at this time, Aries, but you also manage to spread your joy into many other sectors. What do you want to accomplish right now as the good vibes flow? Do you have personal plans to put into motion? Do you want to find a new benefactor? All is possible when your sunny side is up.
