Horoscope: Tuesday, May 19

You must get out and about today, especially if you have been stuck indoors for a lengthy spell. Find an excuse to take a trip and just go where your wanderlust takes you. If you stay where you are for much longer you might just go mad!

There are certain issues in your life that need dealing with and can no longer be avoided. Find the courage to make a start and then follow through to the end. Don’t be afraid to ask others for help – you may be surprised how well they respond.

Are you worried about the psychological and emotional state of a friend, Taurus? Don't get yourself too worked up over it. Your friend is probably more troubled about money than anything else. If this is your love partner, you should be especially careful not to push for confidences, as this could be a turn-off. Your beloved will talk to you when the time is right. In the meantime, be patient and a good listener.

If you act on your hunches today you will accomplish something truly remarkable. This is no time to be reticent or to entertain thoughts of failure because anything and everything is possible for you now – but you have got to believe.

You may have strong opinions about various issues but you need to remember that not everyone sees things the same way as you. Before holding forth on what’s wrong with the world try making an effort to find out what other people think.

Decide what is your most important goal then go all out to reach it, regardless of what others might say and regardless of any threats that people in positions of power may send your way. Once you make up your mind no power on Earth can stop you.

You need to be more tolerant of other people’s fears and failings. The planets warn that the harder you push them and the louder you shout this weekend the worse their performance is likely to be. Gently guide them in the right direction.

Even if you are one of those rare Leos who tend to keep their views to themselves you need to find your voice today and let others know what it is you expect of them. Your straight-to-the-point attitude will impress employers and other important people.

Nice surprises of one sort or another will come thick and fast over the next few days. It’s not often that a lucky streak of this kind comes along, so make the most of it and don’t start thinking there is some kind of catch – there isn’t.

There is not much point focusing on work today, not when you are in the mood to be sociable and have fun with your friends. Even if you neglect your duties over the next 24 hours, you will find ways to make up for it later on.

This is one of the very best times of the year for you, so be bold and take whatever steps you think are necessary to bring success and happiness. Exotic people and faraway places are lucky for you now, so travel as much as you can.

Sometimes you can be a bit too trusting for your own good and the planets warn you should think twice before giving anyone the benefit of the doubt today. Also, be careful what promises you make, as they could cost you dear in the long-term.

Give of your best over the next 48 hours – anything less will feel like you are cheating. There is more than enough time to finish what you are working on but you must get serious about it now. The days will pass quicker than you imagine.

Sagittarius is a sign that likes to be on the move and you just hate it when you have to sit around waiting for other people. For that reason alone you must not tie yourself down today. Be your own boss and come and go as you please.

You may find it hard to be patient with a colleague but you won’t get anywhere by losing your temper. However, if it becomes clear over the next few days that they are dragging their feet intentionally it may be a sign that you need a new partner.

You cannot force others to just hand over what it is you desire and if you try you could set back your cause by days, weeks, even months. Saturn in your sign demands that everything be done fairly and by the book. What’s so hard about that?

Worries about relatives or friends could plague you throughout the day, Aquarius. Perhaps you aren't sure what's wrong and so you feel helpless. Whatever vague worries you may have, don't try to figure out the truth without knowing the facts. You could make mountains out of molehills. This isn't a good day to run errands. Delays and obstacles could cause a lot of frustration and wasted time.

Because the partnership area of your chart is so strong now you would be wise to go along with other people’s plans over the next few days. You don’t mind taking a supporting role, in fact you quite like it as it means mistakes won’t be blamed on you.
