Horoscope Today: May 17, 2026

Horoscope Today: May 17, 2026


Which way to go? You have got options on the table and dreamy wings to take flight on. Pisces, first you need to make a choice so that whatever you are manifesting or creating actually receives your energy and intentions in a focused manner instead of it ending up feeling frazzled and scattered. Things have been moving pretty ridly, Aquarius. You are getting into the limelight, you are also loving being celebrated and in many ways you feel like you may have finally come into your own. A sense of celebration and security lie ahead for you. From a crossroads to a choice that you have made and this choice feels valuable and meaningful to you. Expect a boost in financial stability, overall abundance mindset and a cohesive family life. The darkest times in your life are behind you, and the newest, freshest and most inviting times are here for you. Be it your career, your health, your relationships, your money or anything else—put on that armour and get busy with creating your life, Cancer. You have broader and larger visions that may be impacting your everyday life—ways in which you wish to make it better. Get acting upon them.

Read on for what the stars have in store for you and make sure you check out your sun, moon and rising signs for the complete picture.

Dive right in or rest up—whatever phase of life you are currently in, Aries. There is a lot that has got you all excited, however, right now, merely getting excited won’t get you anywhere. Whether you are in doubt or simply afraid to snooze for a moment longer—the cosmos and your guides support you in multiple ways. You are to take charge and choose which way you would like to move forward and the cosmos will protect you at all costs.

Cosmic tip: You are amping up towards changes that are likely to intensify around the next eclipse.

You may have been reflecting a lot about what exactly is wrong and why things are so repetitive. Taurus, you may have been wanting a move and an upswing in your fortune, you may have been really looking forward to better times ahead. But listen up—this will need you to get passionate about what you are currently being served or get acting upon what you have been toying around with. The same recipe often tastes different with different cooks—and this is because each one of them brings in their signature touch or energy. This plies to everything else in life. Remember this and move on.

Cosmic tip: Your guidance is divinely guided.

You have worked hard to get to where you are currently, Gemini. And you can sense that a huge cycle is coming to a close. Now what you need to ask yourself is what are you really working towards sowing and planting now? There are ideas, inspirations, new beginnings of sorts or even new epiphanies that are burning bright and also seem extremely promising. However, you must remember that acting upon them with humble confidence is the only way to bring them to life.

Zendaya channels Edie Sedgwick in an all-grey mini dress at the Louis Vuitton Resort 2027 show

Zendaya channels Edie Sedgwick in an all-grey mini dress at the Louis Vuitton Resort 2027 show


Zendaya arrived at Louis Vuitton’s Resort 2027 show at New York’s Frick Collection in a custom silver satin mini dress by Nicolas Ghesquière, styled by Law Roach. A wide fold of satin crossed the neckline, exposing one shoulder before falling diagonally across the body. The long bell sleeves balanced the short hemline, while the silver tone continued through her pointed pumps.

Roach confirmed the Edie Sedgwick reference on Instagram, ctioning his video, “The essence of Edie…” The styling stayed close to that 1960s cue: Tiffany & Co. earrings, a cropped side-swept hairstyle with one eye partly covered by the fringe, winged liner, bronzed skin and a nude glossed lip.

Later that night, Zendaya changed into Look 14 from the Resort 2027 runway for the after-party: a cropped black biker jacket with ribbed detailing, worn over canary yellow satin boxer shorts and styled with the same metallic pumps. On the runway, Look 14 was shown with a grey bucket hat, monogrammed hobo bag and silver boxer boots. Zendaya’s version removed the runway accessories, leaving the contrast between the cropped biker jacket and yellow satin shorts to carry the look.

At 85, this feisty Supreme Court advocate still wont back down from a fight

At 85, this feisty Supreme Court advocate still wont back down from a fight


By contrast, Jaising moved through life with a certain defiance of convention and a carefree attitude. She postponed marriage until 36 (initially rejecting it) and chose to remain childless in the 1970s. “My life as a woman is my life in law,” she says. The sentiment runs through her new memoir, The Constitution is My Home, written in conversation with feminist publisher Ritu Menon, and now on stands.

From the start of her career, Jaising’s fight for women to be seen in workplaces and respected in courtrooms went hand in hand. In her 30s, she took on the case of Air India air hostesses who had been denied promotions to supervisory positions. “They were being treated like ornamental figures; their managerial abilities were completely ignored. The injustice was plain. It offended my sense of fairness and moved me to bring a series of constitutional challenges grounded in the right to equality,” she writes in the book.

That fervent ownership plies to every brief she takes on. Whether advocating for women vendors defending their right to sell vegetables or helping educationist Mary Roy (Arundhati Roy’s mother) demand her inheritance, Jaising repeatedly used the law to challenge the ways in which women were denied full personhood.

Writer Githa Hariharan, whose first novel, The Thousand Faces of Night, won the Commonwealth Writers’ Prize for the best first novel in 1993, recounts how Jaising stepped in when Hariharan was not considered the “natural guardian” of her own minor son under Indian law. “I went to Indira, and her organisation, the Lawyers Collective, took up the case pro bono in the Supreme Court. We won a landmark judgement in 1999,” says Hariharan. “I helped a little with the research, and it was quite a learning experience for me. We have been good friends since then, and I feel lucky to know such a powerful role model for women, for lawyers, and, indeed, for good citizens.”

And Jaising has been a great role model for renegade women. In the hallowed halls of the Supreme Court, a judge once banged a file on the table and declared, “Thank you, Ms. Jaising. We’ve had the pleasure of hearing you.” Jaising reenacts the scene for me in her living room, demonstrating exactly how she fought back against a bench steeped in class privilege and sexism. It was a casual but pointed dismissal of a woman representing the homeless against three legal heavyweights pearing for the builders. Refusing to be silenced, Jaising hitched up her pallu like a Maharashtrian woman preparing for battle and slammed her own file down in mimicry.

The most loyal zodiac signs, ranked

The most loyal zodiac signs, ranked


We’ve been hardwired to chase success no matter the cost—health, friendships, relationships. You may think that the most loyal zodiac signs are just built differently and have something elemental that allows them to see the best in people. The truth, however, is that they’re great observers and can simply see in a person what the rest of us miss—observations that allow them to decide whether a person is worth their trust or not. Not many of us are lucky enough to have the unflinching devotion of the most loyal zodiac signs, so if you do, make sure you protect it with everything you’ve got.

Taurus

They love being in charge because, be it a room, a person or the news, they are excellent at reading between the lines. While these headstrong bulls can be temperamental to deal with, lift a finger towards their loved ones and expect to lose an arm. They tend to be loyal to the bone, but once their trust is broken, it will take you a lifetime to gain it back. Don’t make that mistake and always make sure you’re in a Taurean’s good books.

Cancer

Aquarius

They may seem whimsical and fickle in many ways, but Aquarians tend to be the rocks within their relationships. They are great at preserving their independence and relationships in equal measure and are therefore more willing to look for the sunshine behind every grey cloud. Their family and community are everything to them, and they will go to any length to keep things filled with love and mutual respect. Displays of affection may not be their thing, but if there’s one friend who’ll always stand up for you when you’re not in the room, it’s your Aquarian buddy. With Aquarians, it’s all about looking beneath the surface.

How to shave the correct way for silky smooth skin

How to shave the correct way for silky smooth skin


We’ve all been there. You go to shave for smooth skin, but you’re stuck wondering how to shave in a way that doesn’t give you ingrown hair and razor bumps. Here’s the thing: proper care and quality razors can really make a difference in preventing these painful bumps.

“What people refer to as razor bumps is most often a condition called pseudofolliculitis barbae, which typically looks like small red bumps or white-headed pimples,” says Deanne Robinson, a board-certified dermatologist in Westport, Connecticut. Razor bumps can range from ingrown hairs to folliculitis, which occurs when the hair follicle becomes inflamed. And it’s important to care for it before a superficial infection develops.

So how can we address razor bumps in the first place? Ahead, we’re sharing what you can do to treat current bumps and how to shave to prevent them from hpening in the first place.

What causes razor bumps?

According to Hope Mitchell, MD, a board-certified dermatologist at Mitchell Dermatology, razor bumps hpen when hair grows back into the skin instead of outward, leading to inflammation. “I see this most often in people with coarse or curly hair and it’s usually triggered by very close shaving or shaving against the direction of hair growth,” she says. There are also factors within your skin care routine that can cause razor bumps, from using a dull blade to not exfoliating correctly beforehand.

How to get rid of razor bumps

Step 1: Choose the right razor

Choosing the right razor is the first step in mitigating bumps and itchy razor burn. “Shaving with a dull blade pulls and twists the hair follicle, triggering irritation and inflammation,” says Dr Robinson. Plus, “a dull blade means that the razor has likely been sitting in your shower for a while, which is a bacteria’s ideal environment to thrive in: wet and warm. If your razor is harboring bacteria or fungus, you will most certainly see folliculitis.” What this means: change out your razor often and use a sharp, clean blade every time you shave. Rachel Nazarian, M.D, a dermatologist at Schweiger Dermatology Group in New York City, recommends replacing your blades after a few uses. “Toss them out by the fourth shave or even earlier if you see buildup of dirt or dead skin on the blades,” she says.

Pro tip: Shave toward the grain of where your hair grows.

Step 2: Exfoliate

Ingrown hairs are another type of razor bumps. This can occur when you skip exfoliation before shaving, causing the follicles to get blocked and hairs to grow inward, curled up in the skin. They aren’t as immediately noticeable, says Dr Nazarian. “Ingrown hairs take longer to present because the hair needs to grow out before it turns inward, while folliculitis typically occurs within one to two days,” she says.

Light exfoliation can help release ingrown hairs. Just remember to be gentle and avoid any harsh scrubbing. Look for over-the-counter body care products with salicylic acid or glycolic acid, which will help loosen the hairs. And most importantly, never pick at them. We recommend using a scrub, ingrown hair tonics, exfoliating pads or ingrown-hair pads to help clarify the area.
