Your daily horoscope: October 6, 2025

 

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

The message of your birthday chart this year is that you need to reconsider your attitude towards material things. It’s not money and possessions that bring long-term happiness but the love and understanding you share with other people. They’re priceless.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

Anyone who doubts you have what it takes to reach the top will have to reconsider now as you go all out to prove you’re the best at what you do. You need to be careful though. Tomorrow’s full moon could stir your emotions to boiling point.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

Don’t worry too much if you start having doubts about what you are working on. The approaching full moon may be undermining your confidence but the situation is no different to what it was a week or a month ago, so stick with it.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

You will have to make a difficult choice today, the kind of choice you would prefer to avoid but know you can no longer run away from. It comes down to choosing between your home life and your work your loyalty must be with your loved ones.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

Tomorrow’s full moon takes place in the career area of your chart, so some kind of upheaval on the work front is more likely than not. The good news is it will only be a passing storm, so stay calm and allow the situation to blow itself out.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

You are going to have to make some important decisions over the next few days and with Mercury joining Mars in the family area of your chart you need to be aware that those decisions are going to affect other people as well. So make them gently.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

Financial matters are in a state of transition at the moment, so make a conscious decision not to waste your hard-earned cash on purchases that bring short-term pleasure rather than long-term profits. Virgos are supposed to be good with money!

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

If you allow yourself to get uptight about things you cannot change you will make it even more likely that other people will make choices that affect you personally. The best way to deal with the approaching full moon is to pretend it does not exist!

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

As communications planet Mercury moves into your sign today you must speak up and say things you know some people don’t want to hear. You won’t care in the slightest if they are offended by your harsh words. It’s their fault for being so stupid.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

As tomorrow’s full moon takes place in the antagonistic sign of Aries you will be furious about what you see as a terrible injustice. Before you make accusations against other people though make sure they can’t make the same sort of accusations against you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

Don’t try too hard to assert yourself over the next few days, because you could easily go too far and annoy people in positions of power. They won’t much like it if you get on your high horse and claim to be morally superior to everyone else.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

There will be a lot of accusations flying about today and if you are smart you will pretend you can’t hear a word of it. If you allow yourself to get involved it’s likely you will upset at least 50 per cent of the people you work with.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

By all means make alliances with people who share your ambitions but make sure it’s because you want to do the right thing rather than just make a profit. Money is important, of course, but being on the right side morally is what it’s really about.
