Daily Horoscope for May 17, 2017 | By Eric Francis Coppolino
If Today is Your Birthday
Practice fairness and equanimity above all else this year. Be the broker of peace and justice among the people you know and love. Remember that you have a fair mind, and remember to slow down and use it. Every community needs someone who is capable of hearing all sides of the story and actually knowing what's right. Play this role humbly. You share a birthday with Donna Summer, Bill Paxton and Sugar Ray Leonard.
Aries
Aries (March 20-April 19) -- Maintain your independence within any group you're part of. In our society, that's not easy; but for you, it's essential. Your autonomy of thought is your integrity. You don't have to be stubborn, or a contrarian -- you merely need to think for yourself, and wake up when you forget to. Get instant access to your Aries reading!

Taurus
Taurus (April 19-May 20) -- Your sign, for all its alleged stubbornness and self-focus, is one of the great collaborators of the zodiac. You can do all the great things that nobody can do alone, because you're so good at working with others. Today, take the lead, as both coordinator and as teacher of the obvious. Get instant access to your Taurus reading.
Gemini
Gemini (May 20-June 21) -- You might be hesitating about a new idea, and even questioning your own intuition. Questioning is fine, as long as you hold out for the right answer. By tonight or tomorrow, you're likely to decide you actually have a clue, and to proceed with full confidence in yourself.
Cancer
Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- Remember that an important financial discussion or concern is more of a group matter than an individual one. Make sure that you speak with people one-on-one and build a consensus with each person individually, considering their viewpoint; a group is a group of individuals.
Leo
Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- More than you need to achieve anything specific, you need to hold open the space for it to happen. That might mean calling the meeting, introducing the people, and reminding them of what is possible. Even if you do most of the thinking, give them most of the credit.
Virgo
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- Remember to be emotionally present at work. Yes, this can seem like an unlikely concept; we don't usually associate work with vulnerability in any form. Yet in certain group situations that develop today and tomorrow, the warmth of your presence will be what unifies people to work for a common goal.
Libra
Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- If you notice that you already worked through a financial matter with a partner, you'll be less likely to get into any misunderstandings. If you perceive an issue or a problem, ask yourself: didn't I figure this out once before? You already know everything you need to know.
Scorpio
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- There are many sides to every story. They key to happiness with the people you love is agreeing on certain basics, and working from there. You don't need to agree on all the points, particularly the fine details. You can, at least, come to an understanding of where you both stand, and that will be progress.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- You're the one with the clear head these days; deal in tangible issues and take leadership of the situation and you will get positive results. It will help if you prioritize communication. Many minds in collaboration are better than one -- if there's one to coordinate the others.
Capricorn
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- While everything doesn't come down to dollars and cents, you'll need to keep your eye on your resources. This means more than just the bottom line. It means everything you're working with, from cash to supplies to your mental state. Keep cool and work systematically and with cooperation.
Aquarius Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You'll have an opportunity to resolve an old problem or change a pattern that you were not aware you were addressing. It's true that the most vexing issues are the ones we haven't figured out exist yet. So once you get a clue what this is, be grateful you can finally work it out.

Pisces Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Work with your priorities and they will work with you. Figure out what really matters. Then look at your list and notice what your options are. Focus on shifting around the order of operations based on how long things take and what needs to happen first. You'll get it all done. Eric recently completed your Pisces reading. Get instant access!
