Your daily horoscope: June 3, 2025

 

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

As an air sign you are good at adapting to new situations and that will be a factor in your favour over the coming year. Others may be worried by the frenzied pace of change but for you it will be exciting and full of opportunity.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

It may be true that you have all the facts on your side but that won’t stop friends and colleagues saying and doing stupid things. Some people cling so tightly to their illusions that day becomes night even though the sun is still shining.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

You may think that other people should be taking on more of the workload but just telling them to do it won’t change a thing. You need to find a way to make it financially painful for them if they carry on avoiding their responsibilities.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

If you get too involved in your daily routine you could miss out on a creative opportunity of some kind. Do what has to be done and do it well but keep one eye open and don’t be afraid to drop everything if a better offer comes along.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

As one of the zodiac’s more sensitive signs you are usually good at spotting when a family member is feeling low. If that is the feeling you sense today you must do what you can to raise their spirits. Start by reminding them how much you love them.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

Your leadership skills will be much in demand over the next 24 hours, so much so that you may have to ration yourself! Help those who clearly need it the most and tell those you can’t help today to ask you again tomorrow.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

The fact that you gained from someone else’s misfortune is no big deal so long as you did not engineer that misfortune for them. Life gives and life takes and over time we all get what we need and deserve the most. Tell them that.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

Your confidence is such that you honestly believe you can do almost anything, but take notice of the word “almost” because one or two objectives may still be beyond you. Later in the week though they will come within reach as well.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

You may be concerned that you are not making the most of your chances but don’t worry about it too much because there will be other opportunities to shine. Come the end of the week you will be spoilt for choice.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

If you owe someone a favour you must pay it back quickly. Even if they say they don’t expect anything in return you can be sure they will want something from you in the future. It may cost less if you repay the favour now.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

You may be pretty straightforward in your dealings but some of the people you are going to have to deal with between now and the end of the week will be sneaky in the extreme. Keep your wits about you and don’t let anyone make decisions for you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

If you want to make your life both simpler and happier then a major clear-out of your possessions is a must. Find a new home for anything that no longer serves a clear purpose for you but which could be of benefit to other people.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

If someone you work or do business with keeps making life difficult for you then get ruthless and tell them your partnership is at an end. You don’t need them today, you won’t need them tomorrow and you probably didn’t need them yesterday either.
