In this daily horoscope for May 20, Bustle’s resident astrologer Mecca Woods, founder of My Life Created, shares the astrological events happening today that will affect every zodiac sign. Below, here’s a look at how astrology will affect our lives today.

It’s a busy day with the moon in multiskilled Virgo and the confident sun entering industrious Gemini by the late afternoon. As a result, we might find ourselves in the mood to tackle multiple projects, meetings, and ideas. We can expect a creative burst of energy with the Virgo moon meeting up with innovative Uranus in Taurus by midday.

With Gemini season officially kicking off, we might also find ourselves in the mood today to socialize and connect with others, including catching up on all the news and gossip of the day. However, with the Virgo moon facing off with love planet Venus in Gemini by the evening, we might find we’re feeling more critical or demanding than usual. If so, it might be best to be a little choosy about who and what gets our attention rather than spreading ourselves too thin. Look to the match-up between the Virgo moon and protective Mars in Cancer by late tonight to help us determine where our time and energy is best spent.

Read below to see what the stars mean for your zodiac sign today, and make sure to check out your May 2021 monthly horoscope.

If Your Zodiac Sign Is Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Your star is on the rise now and with the kind of heights that you can reach, you need to make sure you have some solid footing. Take time to ground and nourish yourself. You have time.

If Your Zodiac Sign Is Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You might be nothing but nerves today. If so, try to remain focused on the things you have control over instead of what you don’t. Tending to your spiritual well-being can help.

If Your Zodiac Sign Is Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Margaret Flatley/Bustle

If Your Zodiac Sign Is Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Margaret Flatley/Bustle

If Your Zodiac Sign Is Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

If Your Zodiac Sign Is Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Margaret Flatley/Bustle

You’re more than capable of handling things on your own, but consider that you don’t always have to. In what ways can you stand to let people help or guide you? Don’t let pride get in your way.

If Your Zodiac Sign Is Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

If Your Zodiac Sign Is Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Margaret Flatley/Bustle

You might be craving more alone time, but it could be possible that others are demanding much of you now. It’s OK to be picky about who gets access to you today. Protect your joy.
