Horoscope for Friday, May 03
Today, the Sun, Venus and Neptune will plunge you into a world of illusions that can make life very bitter sweet. In your love life you'll be filled with great expectations but it's likely reality won't live up to your hopes. You retreat into your dreams to soothe yourself but you risk suffering some brutal disappointments.
At work too, it looks like you've been building castles in the air but are likely to crash and burn unless you have a concrete project in mind that you can implement.
Financially, prudence is essential. It's quite possible you'll be confronted with people who will want to take advantage of your good nature. Be careful who you trust. On this May 3, you're going to have to use good judgment to avoid a lot of problems.
Luck
Any luck you have today will not be related to material things. It will relate to your relationships at all levels, because they can put you back on the right path despite the influence of Neptune.
Count on those close to you, your friends, and even your colleagues, to make you see the difference between what is achievable and what is just a pipe dream.
Gemini in love
Today's astral climate is ruled by Neptune, who will strew your path with complications. If you're in a relationship you might want to escape from your difficulties into a love triangle that currently only exists in your imagination. Obviously, if you could run away from your current worries into the comforting arms of another person, you definitely would today.
If you're single, you'll finally stop blaming your failed relationships on the people you were with and open your eyes to the real reasons. When you analyze it carefully the only common point in all these setbacks is you!
In a relationship: you'll run away from your problems
Venus encourages indulgence in nostalgia today, which is not always a good way of behaving. You could have some issues with your partner and rather than sort out your current problems the first thing you'll think of is to reconcile yourself with someone from your past.
This is not very mature, but it may be the only means of escape you have for the moment. However, you can count on the down to earth help of your friends who will promptly put you right. You left your ex for a reason and trying to reconnect with them is not the best way of dealing with your current problems.
Single: an electric shock finally wakes you up
Today, Neptune has the gift of plunging you into your wildest dreams and destroying them just as quickly. You think the reason you haven't met the right person yet is only due to external causes, like isolation, unstable career or finances or just bad luck.
Today you risk having the painful realization that actually the main problem is you. It could be that you are suffering from a kind of emotional addiction. You depend on your partner too much and then when you feel like you're suffocating in a relationship you immediately dump them.
Gemini at work
Today's astral climate encourages you to have your head in the clouds and you risk falling far behind with your work. You'll be considering all the paths you could take that would give your career a new direction.
You are very tempted by your old desire to build a family business and you have already imagined everything down to the smallest detail. Try to come back down to Earth before your boss notices. It's also not fair to your colleagues to be daydreaming while they're hard at work!
Opportunities: you could bring your dreams to life!
Venus gives you the ability to bounce back from your failures. It gives you the opportunity to imagine what you really want to do with your career and the opportunity to start making it happen.
Look for help from your family, friends and work networks - there is strength in unity.
Gemini and money
When it comes to finances, today's configuration urges you to be careful. Talk to your financial advisor before you make any investments.
Don't rely on what you've heard from people around you as Neptune's influence could make this information misleading. This Friday better safe than sorry springs to mind.
Gains and losses: money coming your way
Despite your tendency to live in your dreams, Venus favors some cash inflow today.
Although it's taken you a while to get on the right track, it looks like your past efforts will be rewarded and your bank account is likely to be in the black!
An overview of your day of May 3
Under the influence exerted by the Sun, Venus and Neptune today could be an emotional roller coaster. Your joys may be illusory and you'll find yourself facing a cold and relentless reality.
In your love life you have the bad idea of re-contacting someone from your past in order to escape the current problems you have with your partner. However, you are delusional if you think this is a miracle solution for your situation. If you are single you'll face a rather bitter realization as you finally understand that you are the main cause of your loneliness.
At work too, your urge to dream will be quickly overtaken by reality. If you want things to change, take the lead and take action; this is the best way to achieve your goals. Your luck today is to be surrounded by friends and family who remind you that although dreaming is nice, acting to make your dreams a reality is better!
My advice for making the most of today
It is obvious that you are hungry for change otherwise you wouldn't be spending so much time dreaming about it. You know that you have to make decisions and change the way you operate so you don't fall back into the same old patterns. However, you're waiting for the solution to come from other people or from external events. If you are dissatisfied with your situation, it is up to you to change it in a concrete way.
Don't waste time imagining you'll be rescued from your plight by a good looking stranger or a philanthropic millionaire, or even the lottery. It's up to you to find the tools you need to clean up your life and make it better. No one can do it for you, you have the key to your freedom in your own hands.
