Horoscopes by Holiday for May 8

The full moon in Scorpio brings passion, mystery, tension and desire. Every relationship has a story, and those stories get a lot more interesting tonight. Take the time to look and feel your best. You'll only see the ripe opportunities if you're not self-conscious about how you're coming across. The lovely mood will carry into the weekend.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your muses are working overtime, so be ready to capture the ideas that pop into your head. A notebook is a must. The theme revolves around how you can ratchet up the excitement level in your life.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You will be expected to stick to the outline, stay with the plan and do it all within the budget. Those constructs feel too restrictive to you. But if you're pampered and praised enough, you'll be likely to comply.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You want to believe in a happy ending and it is precisely because you can't bring yourself to lose faith that such an ending will happen for you. Keep thinking about the lovely way everything is going to work out.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Romance and melodrama will pull you in. The situation may not include you directly, but you will get a great deal of pleasure or entertainment by being peripherally involved.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Life is never dull for you, either because crazy things happen in your world or because you're busy making crazy things happen. Take the reins today — generate the excitement instead of letting it happen to you.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (MAY 8). You are open-minded and you have a giving heart. The love you experience this spring enriches your life in unexpected ways. June brings a bonus. There's a lifestyle upgrade and perhaps a new addition to your family in September. October represents an intellectual high and your ideas will be recognized. Capricorn and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 19, 3, 33, 30 and 28.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You may not be sure if you can pull off a certain task, but the fact that you want to try bodes well for your success. Chances are good that you will rise to the occasion when all eyes are on you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You put special care into your appearance, choosing attention-getting details that tell the world you are no ordinary citizen. Indeed, you have something surprising to offer those who try to get to know you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You can shift quickly from mood to mood. It's not because you're unstable, but because you are so in tune with the vibes that other people are sending out that you can't help but empathize to some degree.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov.

22-Dec. 21). You need more security today than usual. You want to make a move, but not a risky one. Accomplished people will offer advice. With a willing spirit, you'll embrace these suggestions.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You can't hide your emotions. How you feel about a person colors every nuance of your interactions. If you are trying to keep it a secret that you love someone or dislike them immensely, don't be around that person today.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The way you handled a situation yesterday may be nothing like the way you will handle it today. You are changing and growing. Loved ones are riveted because they don't know what you'll do next.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Something that held a lot of intrigue for you at one time is no longer interesting. It's possible that you've gotten all you could out of this for the time being. Seek new adventures this afternoon.

WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST: ARIES: You want to know what a loved one is thinking. Instead of asking, just guess and you'll probably be right. TAURUS: Your path to love is a surprising one. It's better not to have any expectations. Just let yourself go for this fun ride. GEMINI: You'll be inspired to change your appearance in order to keep things fresh in you love life. CANCER: Someone finds your curiosity flattering! That said, be careful not to be too nosy. LEO: The one who laughs at your jokes has a little crush on you. VIRGO: You're creating the story of your love life with every decision you make. Be mindful! LIBRA: Your whimsical gesture reminds the one you love how unique your kind of affection really is. SCORPIO: You'll be inclined to share a juicy bit of personal information that you normally would keep mum. SAGITTARIUS: You'll meet new friends in a professional context. Singles find love this way. CAPRICORN: Your friends loosen you up. Someone new notices you while you're joking around with your pals. AQUARIUS: Loved ones think you're so attractive while completing a domestic chore. PISCES: Tell people how to treat you, or show them by the way you treat yourself.

COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: Virgo and Sagittarius have a fantastic connection this week. Their sharing is mutually enlightening. Virgo makes everyday events seem spectacularly special because of the attention to detail Virgo so naturally exacts. Sagittarius learns that you don't always have to go out and see new places in order to be impressed by the world — the most spectacular events of life happen right at home.
