Your daily horoscope: October 21, 2025

 

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

Life will be anything but dull over the coming year and your efforts will bring success on every level. For best results though you should identify your top three aims and stick with those from beginning to end. Be relentless in your pursuit of success.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

Like it or not you will have to put other people’s needs ahead of your own today. The good news is that by doing so you will find yourself favored by someone whose power and influence could be of use to you later on.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

You may be tempted to stray from the straight and narrow today but if you do you must make sure you know where you are going and what you are doing. If you get it wrong your rivals won’t waste any time in talking you down.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

A new moon in the most dynamic area of your chart will do wonders for your confidence but it might be wise not to commit yourself to any grand new projects, at least until later in the week. Deal with what is in front of you first.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

If your plans have to change to accommodate the needs of loved ones today it’s really no big deal. In fact, by the time the evening hours arrive you may be glad you were forced to change tack. Is the path you are on really so great?

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

Let your hair down and have some fun today. Cosmic activity in the most sociable area of your chart means that even a minute spent on your own is a minute wasted, so get out there and put on a typically larger-than-life show.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

Your current crisis of confidence will pass not long after the sun changes signs on Thursday, so don’t worry yourself silly that you should be doing more right this very moment. There is a time for everything under the sun and your time will come.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

Today’s new moon in your sign makes this the perfect time to do something different, something that marks you out from the crowd. Don’t worry that your behavior might be outrageous as that’s the sort of performance your audience wants to see.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

You will have a great deal to think about today, so don’t commit yourself to activities that could take up too much of your time. Withdraw from the daily hustle and bustle and give yourself permission to ponder the big questions of life.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

Forget about work and other commitments and get together with people who share your optimistic outlook. You may have felt a bit down yesterday but today you will bounce back and show those who doubt you just how resilient you can be.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

The opportunity you have been waiting for to show people in positions of authority that you have what it takes to compete at the highest level will arrive very soon, so stay alert and be ready to take forceful action at a moment’s notice.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

Give your body, your mind and also your heart permission to roam and don’t worry where you might end up because it is sure to be wonderful. Stop thinking about taking a vacation and buy your ticket today. Impulse travel is under excellent stars.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

Something you do in secret will bring remarkable results before the end of the year. The less other people know about it for now the better, so focus on your dream and believe every moment of every day that it WILL come true.
