Your Daily Horoscope For May 15, 2017

by Mecca Woods

We’re constantly fascinated by what our zodiac sign says about our lives, whether it's which signs are most compatible or how each sign handles conflict in relationships. That's why Bustle has enlisted Mecca Woods, a New York City-based astrologer of MyLifeCreated.com, to tell us all about how astrology is affecting our lives each day. Today's topic: your daily horoscope for May 15, 2017.

The Moon remains in hardworking Capricorn, which means we'll also be in the mood for some hard work. With a meeting between the Moon and dreamy Neptune in Pisces beginning the day, we should feel motivated enough to turn a hope, wish, or dream into something tangible. We'll just need to make sure that we don't try and take on too much by ourselves too soon as the square off between the Capricorn Moon and expansive Jupiter in Libra will reveal a bit later in the morning. Then, when the Cap Moon brushes up against fast-thinking Mars in Gemini a few hours, we'll need to make sure we don't let our ideas or our words get ahead of us. By the late afternoon, the Moon syncs up with powerful Pluto in Capricorn, which could give us the sharp insight and determination we need to rise to the top.

Read below to see what today's stars mean for your sign.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)

Tina Gong/Bustle

If you find yourself so focused on success that it kind of doesn't matter who you step on/piss off to get there, you may want to dial it back for a sec. This is not to say you can't be competitive or shouldn't want to win, but sometimes you really need the help of others to do so. You're not in this alone.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)

Tina Gong/Bustle

It's important that you don't attempt to take on more than necessary today as the stress that it can cause is simply not worth it, especially when it comes to your health. On another note, while you might have some strong opinions and beliefs now, you don't have badger people with them.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)

Tina Gong/Bustle

Someone you've been dating or may be thinking about dating might not have the amount of depth and substance that you need right now. Not that a relationship shouldn't be fun, but the person you choose to become vulnerable with has to be able to offer something more.

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)

Tina Gong/Bustle

You could be feeling some tension today between your partner, family member, or someone you live with which could dig up an old fear or resentment. Know that a power struggle with this person will only make things worse. It's best to address the elephant in the room.

Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)

Tina Gong/Bustle

You could find yourself swinging between feelings of optimism and pessimism today, which could have you feeling a bit weird. Before you let it get the best of you though, it may be helpful to suss out why you feel the way you do. Perhaps this is your mind and body asking you to shake things up.

Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)

Tina Gong/Bustle

When it comes to your creative skills and talents, are you valuing them the way you should? And by value, I mean making sure that you're compensated fairly for what you're bringing to the table. If not, today could be a bit of a wake up call. In matters of the heart, focus on your needs.

Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)

Tina Gong/Bustle

You may find yourself dealing with some old feelings, fears, or wounds today which could leave you a bit unbalanced. It's important to address what ever comes up today as this could be an opportunity to challenge or break free of the past or to release what's no longer yours. Allow yourself healing.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)

Tina Gong/Bustle

Be mindful of jumping to conclusions today or reading too much into something as you may not have all the info you need or you may not be seeing things as clearly as you should. Instead of relying on emotion today, try to be as rational and pragmatic as possible. Silence can be golden.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)

Tina Gong/Bustle

A financial situation could be getting in the way of your dreams today, as it may seem as something isn't coming together the way you want. Know that while you shouldn't give up your dream, you may need to push yourself a bit harder for it. Something you've been avoiding may be the key.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)

Tina Gong/Bustle

While you often have no trouble with pushing yourself to get something done, are you pushing yourself too hard? You may be troubling yourself with trying to control an outcome right now, especially when it comes to your career or reputation that you can't control. Let your work speak for itself.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)

Tina Gong/Bustle

While you're usually the more progressive thinker, even you can hold on to beliefs, opinions, or philosophies that have outworn their validity. Today you might find yourself questioning some of those things as you're digging around, deep in your head. It's time to throw out the mental trash.

Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20)

Tina Gong/Bustle

Debt could be getting in the way of your plans for the future, which may mean it's time for a new strategy or plan in how you address it. Hoping the issue will fix itself or that it will become someone else's problem might not be the way to go. Meanwhile, it may be time to exercise boundaries with a friend.
