Your daily horoscope: June 21, 2025

Globe and Mail21-06-2025
The No. 1 thing you need to focus on this year is going after a single goal at a time. The more your mind is full of plans and schemes the less progress you are likely to make, so live in the moment and let the universe guide you.
A family dispute of some kind can be resolved quite easily this weekend but you do need to be conscious of other people's feelings. You have a tendency to say things that sensitive types find a bit hurtful, though of course you don't mean it.
You will be called on to sort out a quarrel between friends that has nothing to do with you personally. Although you may be tempted to favor one side over the other you must remain rigidly impartial. Don't jeopardize your reputation for fairness.
The sun's move into the financial area of your chart today means you need to devote more attention to a money matter of some kind. If you leave it for other people to sort out you may end up paying more than if you had done it yourself.
Forget about everything that went before and focus entirely on what your next big move is going to be. The sun's entry into your birth sign this weekend means you are perfectly placed to make a new start on every important level you can think of.
You may be something of a human dynamo but as the sun moves into the most sensitive area of your chart this weekend you would be wise to slow down a bit. You don't have to move faster than everyone else – at least not all the time.
The sun is now joining Mercury and Jupiter in the friendship area of your chart, so don't sit at home by yourself. Get out into the world and meet the kind of people who make you glad to be alive. They'll be just as glad to see you.
As the sun moves into the career area of your chart this weekend you can and you must set yourself targets that challenge you on the work front. If you think you are better than your rivals then now is the perfect time to prove it.
A more inspiring phase is now under way and you will find no end of opportunities to express yourself over the next few weeks. Don't hold back because you fear your ideas might upset other people – in fact, make that your No. 1 aim!
Life may be a serious business but don't react to events in the world around you as if all is doom and destruction. People who think like that are best avoided while you go out of your way to show them there is much to enjoy and be joyful about.
Your focus now must be on getting important relationships back on track. Some of them have been so beset by gloom and doom in recent weeks that you may even have considered giving up on them. What happens next will convince you that isn't necessary.
By all means express your point of view this weekend but don't expect too many people to agree with you. According to the planets you are very much in the minority at the moment, so make sure you can back up your opinions with undeniable facts.
Life is about to get hectic in the nicest possible way. Over the next few weeks there will be no end of opportunities to show the world what you can do and you certainly won't hold back. Act at all times as if success is your birthright.

Saskatoon's Roger McQueen receives Disney welcome from Anaheim Ducks at 2025 NHL Draft

The Anaheim Ducks are embracing the name of their first-round pick in the 2025 NHL Draft — Saskatoon's Roger McQueen. After drafting the 6'5" 18-year-old McQueen 10th overall, the team presented him with a jersey numbered 95 — a tribute to the beloved Disney character Lighting McQueen. For his part, McQueen acknowledged their shared name by using the song Life Is A Highway, by Rascal Flatts, as he walked to the stage. "His sisters Audrey and Cora thought that would be really cool," McQueen's father Scott said about the song choice Monday. After the draft, McQueen was flown to Disneyland. It was a full-circle moment for the family, who visited the amusement park a couple days prior. "We thought, like, holy crap, what if he gets drafted by Anaheim? And, you know, maybe we'll get a lifetime pass to Disneyland," Scott joked. The hype surrounding McQueen's last name seems to have only just begun. A TikTok video from the NHL of McQueen being picked for the Anaheim Ducks has already racked up over 1.4 million views. Scott said he never expected the connection to Disney would be as big as it has, but "social media is crazy now and everything just fires up and then it just explodes." At the same time, he said all the attention comes with added pressure for McQueen as he steps into his new role on the Ducks. "I think everybody kind of wants to fly under the radar and you know, and just play," said Scott. "He wants to prove himself as a player and not so much, you know, as a Disney character." Scott found out his son was going to be drafted to the Ducks about "20 seconds" before his name was called. He said it was a very proud moment for the family. "It's hard to control your emotions," said Scott. "We all played hockey as kids and it's different when you're a player than it is when you're a parent. You know, seeing your kids accomplish something is quite emotional." McQueen has played four seasons with the Brandon Wheat Kings in the WHL. Last year, his season was cut short due to a fracture in his back, but he managed 10 goals and 10 assists. He will officially join the Anaheim Ducks at development camp this fall and try to earn a spot on the roster. "Now there's a lot more work to do to actually play in the NHL," McQueen said. "It's kind of where the work starts." He said he's excited about the franchise's future.

Enjoy the small moments: B.C. woman spreads positivity reviewing hundreds of fire hydrants

Although Sadie Morey can't remember the first fire hydrant she paused to appreciate, she can't forget to notice them now. 'I get a little thrill every time I find a hydrant,' Sadie says before pointing to the rounded top of a red one. 'This is the shape I like.' Sadie's keen interest in fire hydrants began when she happened to see one without a round top. 'I thought it was unjust that they didn't have hats,' Sadie says. 'I wanted to know why they didn't have hats.' So, Sadie started doing research, discovered they weren't missing 'hats' and that they just had different shaped bonnets. She spent the next couple weeks sending countless pictures of the various hydrants she happened upon to her best friend Renee Fournel. 'It became a hyper fixation for her that I was not on the same page with,' Renee smiles. 'But I was being a supportive friend.' So, Renee encouraged Sadie to start sharing her fire hydrant finds on social media. Sadie launched a couple of social media accounts using the name Hydrant Girl, and began posting videos reviewing the hydrants she saw. 'I try to keep a blank mind until I get up there,' Sadie says as she approaches a hydrant. 'So, I can give it a purely in-the-moment review.' Sadie – who co-owns a hair salon with Renee – assesses the aesthetics of each hydrant and records her comments on qualities, ranging from design, to paint condition, to adornments. 'My favourite thing about these is they have four stem nuts,' Sadie says about a blue and white hydrant. 'Keep going nature,' Sadie says when spotting a hydrant being enveloped by tall grass and vines. 'You reclaim that hydrant!' 'If he were an adult man,' Sadie comments on a hydrant that appears to be wearing a monocle. 'He would have a tweed suit and a moustache.' After almost a year, Sadie says she has reviewed more than 250 hydrants and counting. 'There's only so many hydrant shapes,' Sadie says. 'So, we got to spice it up a little.' So now Sadie sometimes wears a red fire hydrant costume while filming her critiques. 'Ten out of ten!' Sadie gives a thumbs up in her full body costume. 'I've never seen a hydrant with a green top in this neighbourhood.' Sadie's Hydrant Girl reviews have inspired a quirky community of fans that includes actual fire fighters and more than a couple of city workers – who recently reached out about a hydrant at the end of its life. 'We're replacing it tomorrow,' Renee recalls a city worker messaging Sadie. 'You should come by and say 'hi'. We're all huge fans.' When Sadie did, they gave her the decommissioned hydrant as a gift. While it's currently being kept in her apartment, Renee has agreed for it to have a permanent home in their salon. 'It's brought a lot of fun into my life,' Sadie says of her hydrant hobby. 'And a lot of laughter.' And while it's said we should take the time to stop and smell the roses, Sadie is also inviting us to pause and appreciate the potential of a fire hydrant to extinguish negativity. 'Enjoy the small moments,' Renee smiles. 'And find pleasure and goodness in the little day-to-day things in our lives.'

Joey Chestnut reclaims title in Famous hot dog eating contest, wins 17th Mustard Belt

Famed competitive eater Joey (Jaws) Chestnut reclaimed his title Friday at the Nathan's Famous Fourth of July hot dog eating contest after skipping last year's gastronomic battle in New York for the coveted Mustard Belt. Chestnut, 41, consumed 70 1/2 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes, falling short of his 2021 record of 76 wieners and buns. It marked the 17th win in 20 appearances for the Westfield, Indiana, eater at the internationally televised competition, which he missed last year over a contract dispute. 'I wish I ate a couple more. Sorry guys,' a smiling Chestnut told the crowd, many chanting his name. 'I'll be back next year.' Defending champion in the women's division, Miki Sudo of Tampa, Florida, won her 11th title, downing 33 dogs, besting a dozen competitors. Last year, she ate a record 51 links. She also was apologetic for her performance. 'I feel like I let the fans down a little bit. I heard people in the crowd saying, 'Go for 52,'' Sudo told ESPN. 'Obviously, I'm always setting my goals high, but the hot dogs weren't cooperating. For some reason, the buns felt larger today.' Joey Chestnut 'gutted' to be out of July 4 hotdog eating contest over brand dispute A large crowd, peppered with foam hot dog hats, turned out to witness the annual eat-a-thon, held outside the original Nathan's Famous restaurant in Coney Island, Brooklyn, since 1972. Many fans showed up to see Chestnut's much-awaited return to an event he has called 'a cherished tradition, a celebration of American culture, and a huge part of my life.' Chestnut bested 14 fellow competitors from across the U.S. and the world, including Australia, the Czech Republic, Ontario, England and Brazil. Last year's winner, Patrick Bertoletti of Chicago, came in second place after gobbling up 46 1/2 hot dogs and buns, falling short of the 58 he ate to earn the 2024 men's title. 'I love being here,' Chestnut told ESPN after his win. 'As soon as I found out I was coming, my body – it was easy to train. I love doing it. And love pushing myself and beating the heck out of people.' Last year, Major League Eating event organizer George Shea said Chestnut would not be participating in the contest due to a contract dispute. Chestnut had struck a deal with a competing brand, the plant-based meat company Impossible Foods. Chestnut told The Associated Press last month that he had never appeared in any commercials for the company's vegan hot dogs and that Nathan's is the only hot dog company he has worked with. But Chestnut acknowledged he 'should have made that more clear with Nathan's.' Last year, Chestnut ate 57 dogs – in only five minutes – in an exhibition with soldiers, at Fort Bliss in El Paso, Texas. He said that event was 'amazing' and that he was pleased to still have a chance to eat hot dogs – a lot of them – on July Fourth. 'I'm happy I did that, but I'm really happy to be back at Coney Island,' he said.
