Your daily horoscopes for Saturday May 4, 2024
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Saturday May 4
With the moon tucked away in Pisces and your lazy, hazy twelfth house until later Saturday afternoon, feel free to silence your phone and do as you please. Whether you’re daydreaming, watching movies in bed, taking a looong bath or all of the above, feel zero regrets about turning down social plans. But put out the word that you’re free in the evening when the moon shifts into Aries and flips you on like a neon sign. Get out and light up the night! You don’t need to have qualms about speaking your truth on Sunday, as “wounded healer” comet Chiron huddles with the moon in your sign. Trust that your candor will establish a safe space for other people to tell their story as well. Don’t shy away from sharing about past mistakes. They produced nuggets of wisdom that you can share with others who are grappling with the same issue. Pass on those valuable lessons learned.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Saturday May 4
Whatever you’ve got going on this Saturday, make “It takes a village” your motto while the moon hovers in collective Pisces for most of the day. Even if you’re more focused on work than play, turn the day’s activity into a party to entice more volunteers. Cleaning out closets to prep to see what you can sell? Get lunch delivered, crank an upbeat playlist and let everyone take home the item of their choice. You’ll want everyone out by early evening when the moon settles into Aries and your murky twelfth house, causing your energy to dip. Alone time on the couch with your Kindle or streaming queue is about all the excitement you can handle now. Be gentle with yourself if you get overwhelmed with emotions on Sunday. With the moon and healing comet Chiron hiding in the fog of your sensitive twelfth house, it’s possible that some of those feelings don’t belong to you. You might have soaked up tension from the atmosphere around you or become preoccupied with someone else’s problems. Take this as a one-day hiatus from over-functioning. You’ll be more than ready to establish new limits tomorrow!
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Saturday May 4
You can’t help but talk about work, even though it’s Saturday, due to the Pisces moon’s lingering presence in your career corner. You might want to invite a friend from your industry to the squad brunch so you don’t have to translate your shoptalk when you start unloading. After the moon segues into Aries and your convivial eleventh house late afternoon, you’ll forget all about your job and get into the weekend spirit. Make it an eclectic night, say, tickets to the ballet and then cornhole at a dive bar. The more is the mightier on Sunday as the moon in Aries joins forces with soothsayer Chiron in your humanity house. Have you been waiting for the right time to introduce a new friend to your core crew? There’s no time like the present! You might click with someone on the periphery of your circle as you witness the potential for the deeper conversation you’ve been craving.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Saturday May 4
The sky’s the limit while the moon soars through your expansive ninth house until late afternoon this Saturday. Spend time chasing after a new experience that’s slightly outside your comfort zone, whether that’s hiking on a steep mountain trail or working on a chapter of your memoir in a writing workshop. After the moon moves into Aries this evening, you’ll train your sights on a loftier aim like meeting industry influencers at a party or attending a lecture followed by a Q&A with intellectual bigwigs.
Cancer: Today’s trifecta of the moon in Aries plus expansive Jupiter and healing Chiron puts the focus on your grander purpose. People adore you, and there are plenty of friendships you COULD cultivate. But since each one requires an investment of time, you want to reserve your energy for folks whose enriching company truly fills your cup. Have you been loading up your calendar with “meh” events out of fear of being lonely? Solitude can be a rich and rewarding thing for your sign; it’s when you’re most creative! Review your schedule and make sure you have enough white space so the muse can drop in for a visit. 110

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Saturday May 4
Enlist a partner in crime this weekend as the moon zips through the partnership zones of your chart. Start your Saturday off enjoying the company of your bestie or your bae while la luna glides through your plus-one sector. After the moon dips into Aries and your seduction realm late afternoon, you’ll want more private time with someone who makes your heart race. If there’s no one you’d like to get horizontal with, ask a good friend to come over for dinner and some overdue one-on-one quality time. You may be torn about making a revelation on Sunday, as the moon and healing comet Chiron hold a galactic gathering in your eighth house of mystery and privacy. You don’t need to be an open book and broadcast your secrets to the world on social media. Try reaching out to someone you trust who also happens to be an attentive listener who doesn’t judge. Make it clear that you’re not asking for advice; you just want to feel heard and accepted.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Saturday May 4
Saturday’s Pisces moon in your focused sixth house enables you to home in on important tasks and maintain your concentration until you’ve seen them through. Take care of business and then pop out for a jog or Pilates class to keep your energy up. Late afternoon, la luna swings into Aries and your relationship realm, inspiring you to get out and see people you care about. A guest list of “just the two of us” is perfectly acceptable so resist the urge to invite a third or fourth out of habit or obligation. As the moon sidles up to healing Chiron on Sunday, you may feel at once curious and guarded about other people. Find a space where you feel comfortable, Libra. You might grab a sidewalk table at a low-key restaurant to people watch and smile at attractive passersby or head to happy hour with your inner circle. Some conversation and a bit of flirting could lead you to discover fantastic chemistry, even if it only serves as a reminder of your powers of attraction.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Saturday May 4
As the moon winds through Pisces and your fifth house of heartfelt expression for most of Saturday, devote the day to creative pursuits if the spirit moves you. Head to the botanic garden with your sketchbook and pastels, or channel the passion of your latest liaison and start writing a steamy rom-com screenplay. Late afternoon, your left brain takes over when the moon glides into your hard-working sixth house for the next two and a half days. Map out pragmatic game plans for your Big Ideas and see if they seem doable. Hitting a wall with a project or a Big Life Decision? As Sunday’s moon in Aries gets together with healing Chiron in your service corner, help might be just a ping away. You value your time, and the hours of exasperation you’ll save by calling for backup will make it worth it to swallow your pride. Call in a chit and have someone tackle a few tasks for you. How many people have you done favors for? At least one of them will be ready and willing to pay you back.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Saturday May 4
With the moon hunkered down in Pisces and your cozy fourth house for much of the Saturday, you’re well within your rights to nest the day away. Savor your caffeinated beverage of choice while reading the newspaper or scrolling through social media. Chat on the phone with your sis while folding laundry. The moon swings into Aries and your fun-loving fifth house late afternoon, giving you a noticeable energy boost. Ping your crew for an epic night out, the more boisterous or glamorous the better. On Sunday, the moon unites with conscious Chiron in your pleasure-seeking fifth house. There’s no need to blow your budget or compromise your values in order to treat yourself. Instead of filling a few bags with cheap-and-cheerful fast fashion, browse a vintage store or Etsy for a couple of special but affordable finds that weren’t made in a sweatshop. Romantically, this is a day for mending fences, whether over a minor misunderstanding or a major blowout. You might decide to move on or be friends (something your sign CAN handle), but you’re closer to finding some peace.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Saturday May 4
What’s your record for the number of people you’ve fit into a single calendar day? With the moon buzzing through your outgoing third house for most of Saturday, you might have breakfast with your brother, hit the farmer’s market with a friend, grab lunch with your bestie and meet up with a date in the afternoon. But that sociable energy is bound to wane by late afternoon once the moon slips into Aries and your cozy fourth house. Now your mind turns inward, and you’re in the mood for quiet time at Capricorn Castle. No guilt if you take a rain check on dinner plans and commune with your couch instead. Tackle whatever mess has piled up at home on Sunday when the moon syncs up with “wounded healer” comet Chiron. The clutter could symbolize stressful emotions that you’ve pushed to the back of your head. While you’re sorting laundry and recycling old mail, you might discover a chaotic swirl of feelings rising to the surface. If you’re not up to facing them on your own, reach out to a good friend. Relief could be just around the corner, after a heartfelt convo—and perhaps a few tears.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Saturday May 4
What do you need to take care of on Saturday, Aquarius? While the moon hovers in your second house or practical matters for most of the day, you’ll have the energy to run a long list of errands you’ve been putting off. Or you could opt to go through your dresser and closet and put together a bag of past-their-prime items to take to the textile donation drop-off. This evening, the moon shifts into Aries and your gregarious third house. Find out what bands are in town and rendezvous with your squad for some live music. Don’t worry about it if you can’t find sharp focus this Sunday, Water Bearer. As the moon lines up with reflective Chiron in your mentally agile third house, your thoughts will travel down any tributary they find. Don’t get lost in an internal monologue. Share your conundrum aloud and brunch could turn into the best think tank you’ve had in months!
Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Saturday May 4
Saturday is your day, Pisces! The moon is lingering in your sign until late afternoon, encouraging you to pursue your own agenda and spend time on solo projects and activities instead of trying to appease other people’s preferences. You won’t have much tolerance for boring errands or gossipy brunches. Do your own thing until evening, when the moon floats into Aries and your luxurious second house. Check out the Arts section to find out what plays or dance performances are happening AND have tickets still available that won’t break the bank. As the moon joins soothing Chiron in your second house of material matters this Sunday, don’t shortchange yourself when it comes to treats that please your senses. Review your budget. Is there any space to maneuver? If a purchase is sensible and useful, it could be seen as an investment. Or maybe the upgrade you truly need is less clutter and more room to breathe. Pop outside to take a walk. In fact, see if you can switch that meeting to a conference call and take it while strolling in the fresh spring air.
