Your daily horoscope: July 26, 2025
The sun in your fellow fire sign of Leo at this time of year means there are precious few things you cannot accomplish, so the responsibility is on you to aim high and do something creative this weekend. Don't give less than 100 per cent.
You may not want to forgive a so-called friend for what they recently said about you but it is actually the best move by far. The last thing you need now is to be wasting time and energy on petty vendettas. Get past it and move on.
This is potentially one of the most enjoyable phases of the year for you, so don't sit at home in front of the TV, get out into the world and make some waves. It is also the perfect time to make travel plans for later in the year.
Before you splash a significant amount of cash on something you've had your eye on for some time you need to ask yourself two questions: Do I really need it and can I really afford it? The answer to both questions is almost certainly 'no'.
The more time you spend with people who inspire you this weekend the more likely it is you will come up with productive ideas of your own. Don't look back at the old ways of doing things, look ahead and be a leader for change.
The fact that you are such a practical person gives you a big advantage over some of your more woolly-minded rivals. While they are held back by wishful thinking this weekend you will be moving ahead of them in leaps and bounds.
The message of the stars this weekend is that you need to rise above incidents that enrage you. The world may be unfair but there is no point getting worked up about matters that you cannot possibly change. Aim to change yourself for the better instead.
A bit of sweet talk will open a lot of doors over the next 48 hours, so lay it on thick and don't worry that you may be overdoing it. The people you will be dealing with are too stupid to realize they are being shamelessly flattered.
If you feel the urge to get away from your usual environment then pack an overnight bag and hit the road. You are rarely happier than when on the move and what you see and who you meet on your journey will surely delight you.
A clash of wills on the work front could result in a serious falling out over the next 48 hours. Do your utmost to make sure you are on the winning side, because the planets warn there will be no prizes for coming a brave second.
You may not be the most touchy-feely member of the zodiac but if you reach out to someone this weekend they will respond in kind and a strong bond will be formed between you – a partnership of equals that can never be broken.
You have wasted too much time on trivial matters in recent days and must now move on to activities that bring clear rewards. Ignore those who say that making a profit is in some way immoral – they have no idea what they are talking about.

How these artists beat – or embrace – an Edmonton heat wave
Some artists aren't letting the heat stifle their creativity. Temperatures in the city for the August long weekend are supposed to sit around 30 C, meaning Edmontonians are preparing to relax, stay cool and enjoy the sun. But artists like Leah Kudel aren't trying to beat the heat. In fact, the owner and lead glassblower at Suspended Studio consistently works in 'balmy' temperatures of 39 C and up. 'We drink fizzy water like it's going out of style. Hydration salts. We also just douse our heads in cold water,' Kudel said. 'And we try to blow earlier in the morning.' Kudel's been working beside a furnace making intricate glass works of art for the last 15 years. Ideal working weather, she said, is anything between 20 C and minus 15. Kudel Leah Kudel works in her studio on July 31, 2025. (Nahreman Issa/CTV News Edmonton) When that's not feasible, though, Kudel urges everyone in the shop to 'temporize to the heat.' 'You just pretend you're living in a hotter country, like your body gets used to doing it a little bit more,' she said. She's also very familiar with the signs of heat stroke. Between the oxy propane torch, furnace and end-of-July heat, Kudel said the studio's airflow is put to the test. 'As long as there's a breeze, everything's going to feel a little bit better,' she said. Some artists, like Ashley Thimot, take it one step further by pretending they're in a winter wonderland year-round. Thimot is primarily an oil painter who specializes in scenes of nature, which she creates from a chilled basement that includes a running space heater.

(Nahreman Issa/CTV News Edmonton) While she does some summertime landscapes, she recreates many photos of winter from her neighbourhood in the Ottewell area. 'For me, the main thing is drama. Drama just makes for a more compelling composition and painting,' Thimot said. For Thimot, that means lots of fall and winter scenes. She likes making many of her winter pieces to convey the temperature of snow, which is one of her favourite things to paint. 'When you catch a sunrise or a sunset, even in the winter, the snow will reflect that light … which is so magical,' she said. 'Colour schemes really help to convey that feeling of being cold.' Both Kudel and Thimot are dedicated to their craft, rain or shine, hot or cold. 'Just because it's hot doesn't mean we can take vacation all summer, sadly,' Kudel said.
