Horoscope today, July 8 2025: Daily star sign guide from Mystic Meg

OUR much-loved astrologer Meg sadly died in 2023 but her column is being kept alive by her friend and protégée Maggie Innes.
Read on to see what’s written in the stars for you today.
ARIES
March 21 to April 20
Your current learning style may not match what others expect – but if it’s working for you, stick with it.
There could be a market for sharing these strategies.
As the caretaker planet steadies your personal zodiac space, you can bring big ideas down to earth and explore them in ways that engage the toughest audience.
TAURUS
April 21 to May 21
With Neptune firmly in reverse, you may have a temptation to play safe.
But this is a day to experiment – and take the risk of opening up to romance.
A face you can’t stop thinking about can be the key. It’s possible to be careful with money without being mean – if you keep negative emotions out of calculations.

GEMINI
May 22 to June 21
Saturn highlights your most reliable friend as the one to look into starting a business with, even on the smallest scale.
The two of you can uncover ideas and abilities in common that you don’t suspect.
But you also give each other company and confidence, and this is priceless.

CANCER
June 22 to July 22
Having yes-people as friends or partners may seem a brilliant idea – but without any challenges you could lose your natural sparkle.
So do take a closer look at a passion prospect who never seems to agree with you.
A former rival, in love or at work, could be such a positive ally.

LEO
July 23 to August 23
Passion may ask a lot of you – but the rewards are worth it.
Power planets in your chart work towards flipping an emotional switch to help you understand why you feel the way you do and what you can do about it.
This is a life crossroads.
If you’re single, you know who you want – so why do you deny this?

As Uranus settles in at the top of your chart, ambitions solidify and start to make sense.
