Celebrants, light your bonfires, feast and dance the maypole — maybe not in that order. It was the belief of the ancients that on this day of Beltane, the veil between realms of reality is at its thinnest. It ties in with the themes of fertility, which is quite literally the bridge between what is not and what is. On this midpoint between spring's equinox and summer's solstice, what will you bring to life?

ARIES (March 21-April 19). In the intricate dance of relationships, trust is the bedrock upon which all else is built. Everything good springs from this silent agreement. You're creating something special by just by doing what you say you'll do.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Humans come together in life's little snags. It's in these moments of vulnerability and resilience that bonds are forged. So don't fret over problems or try to avoid them because they house the opportunity for connection.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Love transcends comprehension; it defies rational explanation and analysis. Instead of seeking to master its complexities, embrace its essence. You don't have to understand love, just give it.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Each time you get happy, it becomes easier and easier to achieve the state. Every opportunity for joy is worth taking. Seize it. By doing this for you, you do it for anyone around you because your joy will lift others.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). What you learned from past relationships keeps helping you as you progress with different kinds of ties. This is why, in the school of life, you are teacher's pet. You demonstrate that the lessons are never lost on you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You're comfortable in your skin, in your mind and in your being. It's a good look. People will be attracted to you today because they sense that some of the comfort you feel will rub off on them.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Maybe there's nothing new under the sun, but you will sure make it look new for your people, creating a remix with your signature style all over it. Said style is ever evolving. Have fun with it today.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You assume each person is so unique you couldn't possibly know what they are thinking. Because you don't jump to conclusions, you will get to know a person better than those who are limited by their familiarity.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You're still not sure what to think about an arrangement — a powerful place to be. Unhurried decision-making is best. Later, you'll look back and see this day as pivotal to your success. Ask questions, investigate and observe.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). There are several situations that vie for your attention, many of them worthy of you, and yet there's only one you to go around. Instead of rushing toward the loudest problem, step back and decide what interests you the most.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). People have various roles in your life. Some play several parts at once. Others play a very narrow and specific role. And then there are those whose purpose keeps shifting. Embrace the changes. It's about to get more interesting.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There's solace in a belief of self-sufficiency, even though it's not quite true. No matter how full your life is and how whole you feel on your own, you still need people. It's something to celebrate, really.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 1). Heaps of attention and affection is coming your way! Life shows up shiny and new for you, so you'll develop a fresh set of favorites — from people to interests and colleagues. More highlights: A project pays you well, allowing for upgrades. Family life brings a sense of pride and accomplishment. You'll witness remarkable events. You'll spend foreign money. Capricorn and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 1, 5, 7, 32 and 15.
