Success can be achieved if you listen to elders and take time to attend to your mental and emotional health right now. Only you can decide if the glass is half empty or half full. Be flexible in your outlook. What seems like an obstacle may be an opportunity in disguise. Now's a good time to recommit to your health. Getting in shape will be satisfying and will make you feel great!

Prepare for the unexpected, Taurus! Communication planet Mercury turns retrograde in Taurus today until May 14, a double whammy for your practical sign. You may think you’re expressing yourself clearly, yet people look at you like you’re from another planet. Even your best-laid plans can get messed up through no fault of your own. Slow down, scale back, and be flexible about last-minute changes (we know, not always your strong suit). This IS a good time to reflect on your personal brand, cataloging any changes that you think can improve your public image. Just wait until Mercury turns direct May 14 to implement anything!
