Your Horoscopes > Fortunes for the merry merry month of May Rebecca Peterson Humour Editor H“ at the Other Press, we like to spend elaborate amounts of money on a phony psychic who lives in the office supply closet. Here’s what she’s predicted about your destiny* for this month. *All destinies come with a 30-day satisfaction guaranteed warranty, though warranty is void if user engages in: lamp rubbing, star wishing, wishing-well contributing, birthday candle blowing, or any and all forms of divine intervention. IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY... If your birthday is on the fourth, we predict that you will suffer a monumental amount of Star Wars jokes thrown your way. If it’s on the fifth, your birthday is likely overshadowed by Cinco de Mayo. If it’s on Mother’s Day and you happen to not be a mother, you should expect to give up your birthday privileges in lieu of appreciating mothers everywhere. If it’s any other day of the month, it’s predicted that you will be abducted by aliens and taken to another planet. Happy birthday! ARIES (March 21 — April 20) Aries, May holds many surprises in store for you. Telling you what these surprises will look like, of course, is entirely against the spirit of the whole thing we're doing here, but we can reveal this to you: Turtles are most definitely involved. Whether we mean the chocolate or the animal is for us to know, and for you to find out.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 — Sept. 23) This month, you will find yourself in a situation that you might not have expected ever to find yourself in. You were, maybe, expecting to find yourself beside it, or hovering slightly above it, but certainly not in it. It just goes to show how wacky and unpredictable life can be. SCORPIO (Oct. 24 — Nov. 22) Scorpio, this month marks the first month of the rest of your life. June will also be the first month of the rest of your life, as will July, so don't feel too bad if you don’t make the most of May while it’s here. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 — Dec. 21) If you listen closely, with all your might, you might catch a brief whisper of the universe telling you the answers to all your questions. We suggest you do your absolute best to ignore it. Your parental figure didn’t raise you to be a cheater, after all, and the universe should know better than to give out all the answers. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 — Jan. 20) This month is a perfect month to start thinking really hard about what you're doing with your life, where your choices are taking you, and why youre still eating Nutella out of the jar at 23 years old like some damned heathen. It’s not good for you, Capricorn, have you seen how much sugar they put in that stuff? It’s actually ridiculous. AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 — Feb. 19) Aquarius, we're not going to beat around the bush about this—there’s a high possibility that this month is going to be incredibly average. Like, really, completely, and totally normal, with no surprises whatsoever. Whether this is a comfort or not is up to you, and how much you enjoy mediocrity. PISCES (Feb. 20 — Mar. 20) This month will bring you luck! Good luck? Bad luck? Neutral luck? Who knows! But luck is certainly on its way to you in one form or another.
