Your daily horoscopes for Thursday May 23, 2024
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Thursday May 23
Hello, new horizons! Today’s full moon illuminates your international ninth house, giving you a serious case of wanderlust. What’s more, this lunar light could bring a supersized opportunity in a distant locale. Be ready to cross county lines—or maybe international borders—on a moment’s notice, Ram. Alternatively, you could be rolling out the welcome mat for a globetrotting guest. People from different backgrounds or countries are primed to make a positive impact on your life over the coming two weeks, so look far beyond city limits for the connections you crave.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Thursday May 23
Springtime sizzle, here we go! Today’s fiery full moon in your erotic eighth house awakens the desires you’ve kept within. From sexy role-playing games to experimenting with tantra, allow yourself to revel in getting your motor purring. This lunar light is the manifestation point of something you set into motion six months ago, near the corresponding new moon. Officializing vibes are in the air, possibly turning an on-again, off-again connection into the real deal. Just don’t settle for a purely physical connection. Emotions will invariably become involved. A joint business venture or investment could also manifest today.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Thursday May 23
It takes two to make a thing go right. Today’s full moon activates your seventh house of partnerships, setting the scene for committed bonding. Casual dating could morph into a monogamous relationship, or you could finally close a killer deal. On the flip side, this lunar light could make it clear that it’s time to move on from a lukewarm alliance that shows little promise for the future. Regardless of the direction your pairings take, relationships will substantially evolve over the next two weeks. Go with the flow instead of struggling to maintain the status quo.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Thursday May 23
Drop and give ’em 20? Gladly! Under today’s full moon in your sixth house of healthy living, your motivation tanks get topped up when it comes to body love. The next two weeks are prime for getting into a serious self-care groove. Incorporate exercise into your daily routine, make veggies a large portion of your plate, catch up on your regular checkups. Your work life also ramps up during this cycle, so you might want to postpone any taxing juice cleanses for another time. Bring your A-game!
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Thursday May 23
Today’s Sagittarius full moon sets your passionate fifth house on fire, making your desires crystal-clear. Never mind being polite about what you want. If something (or someone) isn’t getting your motor purring, now’s the time to be honest. For the next two weeks, amp up the glam factor, Leo, and make maximalism your new style M.O. Some long-awaited accolades and an adoring public are heading your way, and you’ll want to look your best. Roar!

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Thursday May 23
Intimacy is the name of the game today, Virgo. With the full moon illuminating your fourth house of emotional ties, you’re most comfortable sharing with your nearest and dearest. Some frank conversations could touch your heart, triggering the waterworks. (Pro tip: Carry extra tissues!) A key woman in your life could approach you to join her on an endeavor or a trip. If you’re looking to hang your hat somewhere new, the next two weeks could reveal that dream real estate listing. The interior-decorating bug may bite some Virgos, especially if the renos serve a practical purpose.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Thursday May 23
Today’s Sagittarius full moon electrifies your third house of dynamic duos, leading the way to promising partnerships. Whether you’re seeking a creative collaborator, a romantic relationship or a festival buddy, keep your eyes and ears open. In fact, your perfect plus-one could be someone you already know—perhaps even a person you met six months ago, near the corresponding new moon. Social networking sites and dating apps can be the perfect search tools under these mobile-friendly moonbeams. Activate your profile and comment generously on other people’s posts!
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Thursday May 23
Show YOU the money! Today’s full moon in your second house of cash and work could bring you a major windfall or the opportunity to scale the ladder of success. If a heftier salary isn’t in the cards, it’s a stellar time to renegotiate your responsibilities and pitch a more distinguished title. At the other end of the spectrum, you may decide you’ve reached the end of the road at a current job. As you venture down a new career path that’s more aligned with your higher self, revamp your budget. Keep your radar up for a sage investment opportunity over the next two weeks.
