These daily forecasts have been compiled by astrologer Russell Grant, who has been reading star signs for over 50 years. From Aries through to Pisces, here’s what today could bring for your horoscope – and what you can do to be prepared.
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
Your impressive reputation in the workplace will bring in a lot of business. Clients will request your services by name, confident that you are the best person for the job. 2025 will be a good year to consider launching your own business.
Taurus (Apr 21 – May 21)
Your desire for more freedom will grow as 2025 progresses. If most of your friends are conventional thinkers, it might be time to start exploring new opportunities. Look into joining a creative organisation or a political action group that advocates for change. You will appreciate this chance to connect with people who are open to progress.
Gemini (May 22 – June 21)
Being around positive people will uplift your spirits. Their enthusiasm will inspire you and guide you toward solutions for even the most difficult problems. By believing in the Universe’s boundless gifts, 2025 can bring a remarkable turning point for you.
Cancer (June 22 – July 23)
It’s not always easy to speak your mind freely. If you’re working for a well-known company or client, maintaining confidentiality is key. You might think about taking a break from social media or using a pseudonym. It might also be a good idea to limit your network of contacts.
Leo (July 24 – Aug 23)
It can feel as if everything in your life has gone awry. This leaves you puzzled and wondering how it has all gone wrong. After a short pause you will be ready to gather the pieces and see how they fit. As everything starts to make more sense you will have a clearer idea of your next steps for the future.
Virgo (Aug 24 – Sept 23)
Your attention is being directed towards important issues. Talking over your thoughts with someone who understands you will be essential. You’re feeling slightly anxious about the plans you are putting together and that’s because they involve stepping into new experiences.
Libra (Sept 24 – Oct 23)
Your friends can be a great asset when it comes to advancing your career. If you’re seeking employment, let your closest friends and family know. Ask that they stay alert for any job openings that might suit your skills. It’s also a good idea to describe your ideal career path in detail.
Scorpio (Oct 24 – Nov 22)
There are a few things you want to consider. You’ve been feeling out of touch with yourself lately. This could stem from others trying to push their opinions onto you or influence your choices. Spending time alone can help you regain your sense of direction.
Sagittarius (Nov 23 – Dec 21)
You are in the social spotlight but you aren’t relishing this as much as you have done during the recent festivities. It’s becoming more important to you to find some space for yourself. Don’t feel bad about cancelling a regular get-together with friends. You need this chance to recharge.
Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 20)
Gossip or casual talk is exaggerating a situation and making it seem worse than it actually is. Sometimes an idea or thought can be planted in your mind and it would have been preferable for you not to have heard or learned about it at all.
Aquarius (Jan 21 – Feb 19)
At long last you have reached a stage where all your past hard work is paving the way for new opportunities. You deserve the rewards coming your way. A celebration seems likely. Some people will have had enough festivities by now but you’re tempted to really indulge.
Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)
Your intuition, sensitivity and unique perspective is a source of strength for you. Understanding the feelings of those around you provides you with a deeper insight than most people possess. Even so, stay alert for those who might try to manipulate you. Your wishes and a partner’s plans seem to be in conflict.
