Daily horoscope for May 2: YOUR star sign reading, astrology and zodiac forecast TODAY

The transit Moon features in the first sign of the zodiac today, just 30-degrees away from the Sun. Aries is a cardinal fire sign in the constellation Aries, typically present from March 20 to April 20. Astrologers believe the star sign is a headstrong and brash energy, representing natural leadership skills and impulsiveness. Because of this, people who are born under the influence of Aries are said to be confident, optimistic, determined and moody.

The next astrological aspect to look out for is the grounded Sun in the zodiac of Taurus.

Taurus is quintessentially the opposite of Aries – it is reliable, patient and known for being extremely stable.

Individuals who feel a strong presence of Taurus in their horoscopes are said to have a passion for gardening and handiwork.

On the downside, however, the star sign is also believed to be at times incredibly stubborn and possessive.

But these are not the only astrological movements, which will dominate the heavens today.

According to astrologer Marina Stoichkova of MarStars Astrology, Mercury will play an important role as well.

Firstly, the planet forms a 90-degree square aspect with the dwarf planet Pluto.

And then second of all, Mercury forms a 120-degree trine with the gas giant Jupiter.

Combined together, these two diametrically-opposed Mercury-led aspects will play a “major” role in your forecast.

The astrologer said: “The square between Mercury and Pluto can make us more suspicious, can bring some kind of doubts, issues with control and power, or people who have control and power, challenges in communication with government institutions or in terms of business projects.

“If we put some extra energy and effort, we may use this power to control the situation.

“But you have to prepared for the possible challenges and sometimes even the tension for the nervous system for the mind, it’s just something happening when we have Pluto and the challenging energy.”

At the same time, the astrologer added, the Mercury-Jupiter trine is an incredibly positive influence to embrace.

The celestial combination can flow with optimistic energies and help you plan things ahead of time.

Ms Stoichkova said the trine can also induce your communication skills today, sending success your way when necessary.

She said: “What can I say, guys? I think it’s really up to us how we are going to navigate, how we can use this energy.”
