Daily Horoscope Tuesday, May 12, 2026 Astrologer Bussaban

Aries Lost items will be returned to you smoothly today without complications. Avoid open areas during heavy rain and thunderstorms as they pose a safety risk for your sign. Your work system is unstable and may need reform. Income from a recent period will decline. New friends tend to be academically knowledgeable and bring you great benefits.

Taurus You may feel exhausted from multiple tasks today or decide to take a temporary break from work. Your life cycle will slow down and you may desire more rest. Single individuals will attract romantic attention from multiple people, and new friendships will also increase. However, you shouldn't rush into anything too quickly.

Gemini You will face various family-related problems from relatives and close associates. There is no peace in your family circle. Previously resolved issues have resurfaced to cause trouble again. Office changes will affect you, with more work or increased responsibilities but no salary or position increase.

Cancer You will hear many tall tales and build castles in the air. Even incredible stories will convince you without logical reasoning. Knowledgeable and intelligent people often get tricked along with you. Officials and government agencies will help you well, but asking siblings for help usually won't succeed.

Leo You face many unusual problems today, ranging from old property matters to foreign language-related issues. People may approach you to borrow money, or you may see sad news in the media that touches your compassionate heart, prompting you to donate. Your kindness will certainly return good results.

Virgo You shouldn't travel or go anywhere at night, especially with unfamiliar people or outside your normal travel routine. When signing important documents or agreements, always have an expert or trusted friend present. Your income will increase, or at minimum you'll have enough to cover expenses and previous debts.

Libra You may have minor health irregularities such as colds, congestion, and runny nose. Your physical condition feels somewhat weak and disturbed. Avoid eating stale or unhygienic food. You'll be charming to foreigners but shouldn't become too intimate with the opposite sex.

Scorpio Your contact with colleagues and business management will proceed smoothly. Your experienced staff will help you work well, but you yourself feel lazy and unmotivated. Businesses involving government agencies may face some problems or power struggles that won't be easy to resolve.

Sagittarius You have dedicated and understanding staff. If current staff is insufficient, you'll gain additional help, possibly foreign workers. Starting new ventures will yield good results, though you shouldn't rely heavily on emergency capital and manpower at this time. Long-term investments are beginning to show diminishing returns.

Capricorn You have divine protection today. Even if you're in a troublesome situation, it won't affect you. You have immunity that prevents criminals from bothering you, or perhaps police stationed nearby. Your accumulated good deeds will bear fruit.

New research shows that regular coffee consumption does more than just keep your brain alert—it also benefits your overall health, mood, and gut balance while reducing inflammation in the body.

A newly published study in a health research journal found that regular coffee drinking may deliver benefits beyond just boosting energy, as it could help balance gut microbiota, which is connected to brain health, mood, and immune function. Both regular and decaffeinated coffee contain polyphenols, plant-based antioxidants beneficial to the body.

The research tracked 62 healthy adults aged 30-50, dividing them into groups of regular coffee drinkers and non-coffee drinkers. Participants abstained from coffee for two weeks before resuming consumption in both caffeinated and decaffeinated forms. Researchers found that when coffee consumption stopped, certain gut microorganisms changed, and when they resumed drinking, the microbiome began returning to its original patterns. This suggests coffee may promote the growth of beneficial gut bacteria.

The study also found changes in metabolites—substances created by the body's breakdown of food and beverages—that are involved in anti-inflammatory processes. CRP protein levels, a marker of inflammation in the body, were also measured. Results occurred in both regular and decaffeinated coffee groups, indicating that some benefits may come not just from caffeine alone, but also from coffee's polyphenols.

However, researchers noted that results regarding mood, stress, and brain function weren't clear for all participants. Additionally, the study had a relatively small sample size and short duration, requiring longer-term research to confirm results in other populations.

Experts emphasize that while coffee may benefit gut and immune health, the most important factor remains overall eating habits and lifestyle—including high-fiber foods, vegetables, fruits, whole grains, reduced processed foods, adequate sleep, and regular exercise. These habits work together to maintain strong gut microbiota long-term.

Jeff Satur Reveals He Received Compensation from Series Producer, Emphasizes Everyone Should Protect Their Rights and Keep Contracts Clear; Hints at THE TITANS CONCERT Reunion with Four Artists

Previously, Jeff Satur disclosed that he faced unfair work practices, including unauthorized use of his image for series promotion and unpaid wages from the producer, which led him to pursue legal action.

Most recently at the MITH event launching the new "LEGEND" fragrance at Central World shopping mall, Jeff Satur appeared as a new presenter. He then gave an interview about the contract dispute drama.

Will the Golden Throat trio reunite?

"I've wanted to perform with Nun and Kin for a long time. Back then we sang together casually but it turned out great. Once we actually performed together, I wanted to keep doing it. As a singer who gets to perform with two talented artists like them, it's really enjoyable. There are still many songs we haven't performed together."

Who selected the songs?

"The team chose them. They picked songs that fit perfectly as closing numbers."

How did the series situation turn out?

"Everything was settled legally. The compensation payment is approved. (Relieved?) Yes, it ended in the best way for everyone."

How long did it take to resolve?

"About a year, it dragged on quite a bit. (How did fans react?) They were happy. They got to see what they'd been waiting for."

Is this a lesson for future projects to pay more attention to details?

"Actually, since then I've learned that everything must be finalized on paper before starting any work. There won't be disputes during the job about whether this is the agreed-upon work or if this is what was settled on. Everything must be finalized on paper first. Many people think contracts are important—they really are the most important thing. Everything must be finalized on paper, then you do the work. I'm someone who's very strict about contracts, but once everything is settled, I'm very easy to work with during the actual job. Everything is already specified."

Were there any previous conflicts?

"Basically, I'm an easygoing person, but when circumstances become difficult, I have to protect myself. Everyone comes to work for their own interests, so I need boundaries. If something goes too far, I have to speak up. That's why everyone has the right to protect their own interests, and no one should violate those rights. I'm quite serious about protecting my rights. I used to be the type who would agree to anything, but ultimately that wasn't easy either. So I came to resolve these issues. Everything you think about must be written down. Don't be vague about anything. Everything must be clear."

The four-artist concert?

"It's a gathering of talented people like P'P, Bamb Baem, and Tham Thai. Each of them excels in their own way. Bringing us together will create something new and cool that we can do together."

Tickets are already on sale, right?

"Yes. I haven't really checked much yet. I was at the sports day event yesterday."

The concert sounds heavy and intense. Will there be cute and lovely concert moments?

"They won't let me go to heaven. I'm not sure what my character is like, but I kind of like it, honestly. It might suit my character. Let's stay in hell then. (laughs)"

Globlex Securities (GBS) projects the Thai stock index will experience volatility within the 1,470-1,545 point range throughout May 2025, driven by Middle East tensions particularly around the Strait of Hormuz and uncertainty in US-Iran peace negotiations, which continue to create global investment uncertainty and oil price volatility. However, Thailand is positioning itself as an attractive safe haven, with Moody's rating the country as better prepared than many emerging markets to withstand future global economic shocks, reflecting improved risk balance for the Thai economy.

Domestically, optimism is bolstered by a revised GDP growth forecast from the Bank of Thailand following the government's authorization of a 400 billion baht borrowing decree, raising 2025 GDP growth estimates to 2.1% from 1.5%, while 2026 projections are lowered to 1.6% from 2% due to high base effects. Global markets remain supported by strong performance from Wall Street's technology and AI sectors, which drove S&P 500 profits to multi-year highs, while a US trade court ruling partially invalidating tariffs provides additional tailwinds to global trade.

Key domestic events investors should monitor this month include May 15 (first quarter 2025 financial statement deadline), mid-May investor confidence surveys, May 18 (Q1 2025 GDP announcement), the third week (automotive production and export figures), May 29 (Bank of Thailand economic report), and late May releases from the Commerce Ministry on international trade and various economic indices. Internationally, China's April consumer and producer price indices on May 11 will provide important economic signals during this volatile period.

At 10:00 AM on May 11, 2025, at the Phakdi Bodin Building at Government House, Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul and the Interior Minister chaired a national committee meeting to prepare for the annual meetings of the World Bank Group's Board of Governors and the International Monetary Fund's Board of Governors.

The Prime Minister stated that Thailand's hosting of these annual meetings in October represents a major undertaking comparable to the financial Olympics of the world. The conference is expected to draw approximately 15,000 participants from 200 member nations, including national leaders and high-level economic and financial policymakers ranging from finance ministers to central bank governors, financial institution representatives, and senior executives. This makes it an important forum for international economic and financial discussions.

The PM noted that Thailand's selection as host demonstrates the international community's confidence in Thailand within the global financial sector, and emphasized the need for cooperation from all relevant parties. He highlighted the significance of leveraging the event to attract international capital and investment into Thailand.

"The World Bank meeting brings the world's money holders to our country, so it's crucial that we maximize the opportunities to keep as much of that capital flowing into Thailand as possible," the PM said. He stressed the importance of welcoming these important figures, facilitating their needs, and ensuring their security throughout their stay, noting that some attendees hold positions as heads of state. He emphasized the need for cooperation from security agencies, police, military, and administrative officials.

The PM recalled that Thailand previously hosted such a conference 35 years ago in 1992 (B.E. 2534), and observed how Thailand has since elevated its status in the global financial sphere, opening up to international finance markets, capital markets, and financial instruments—developments that followed that first World Bank meeting.

For this year's event, held under the theme "Thailand's New Horizons: Empowering People, Building Resilience," the PM said Thailand will incorporate the principles of the Sufficiency Economy, which has significant value and worldwide recognition, presenting new opportunities for the country.

The Department of Marine and Coastal Resources under the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment hosted the 16th National Mangrove Seminar for 2025 under the theme "From Royal Grace to People: The Mangrove Botanical Garden" to commemorate National Mangrove Day. Minister Suchart Chamklin opened the event and led participants in ecosystem enhancement activities, planting over 10 plant species and releasing approximately 9,999 aquatic animals, while visiting exhibitions from Thailand Mangrove Alliance partners including PTT, SCG, and Dow Thailand, as well as research networks and community product booths from Chanthaburi province.

The seminar served as a national-level mangrove academic forum, featuring special presentations from Prof. Dr. Sanit Aksornkoae, chairman of the International Society for Mangrove Ecosystems (ISME), and Dr. Pinsak Surasawadee, director of the marine and coastal resources department. Minister Suchart emphasized that the government considers mangroves a "strategic resource" and is leveraging blue carbon mechanisms as a key tool to achieve Thailand's net-zero emissions target by 2050, reflecting the nation's readiness in knowledge, research, and public participation to develop a sustainable blue economy. Mangrove ecosystems serve as critical nature-based infrastructure that maintains the land-sea interface balance, reduces wave and wind severity, filters pollution, and functions as a powerful global carbon storage system.

Prof. Dr. Sanit Aksornkoae noted that mangroves today face multifaceted challenges from climate change, rising sea levels, and unsustainable resource use, requiring integrated mechanisms combining academic knowledge with proper management, and crucially, "building awareness and participation across all sectors" from local to international levels. He stressed that creating correct understanding and awareness of mangrove values forms the foundation for sustainable conservation and use.

Dr. Pinsak Surasawadee added that the department remains committed to rigorous and continuous mangrove conservation, restoration, and protection against encroachment.
