General Daily Insight for July 28, 2025
We're filling our cups and pouring into others. With loving Venus working to assist sore Chiron at 12:55 pm EDT, grudges can melt away, equilibrium can return, and compassionate people can enter our lives. The precise Moon then joins with exciting Mars, encouraging us to give back with passion and instinctual know-how. Finally, the Moon struggles against balanced Venus, making it difficult to accept shifting circumstances. Just because healing might be unfamiliar to us doesn't mean we should reject it. Let's let balance blossom.
Aries
March 21 – April 19
You're learning how to be kinder to yourself. This will be especially impactful for Rams who typically burn the candle at both ends, choosing to leave sleep or self-care in last place on the to-do list. Today is asking that you prioritize your health and well-being. If you thought about yourself as if you were someone else, would you be happy with the way that you were treating that person? Treat yourself as if you were your friend, not your enemy.
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
Combining intuition and logic is very possible. It might feel risky to let your soul guide you, as you may have rationally decided that another path is better for you. Still, your intuition could truly be calling you somewhere else. Instead of feeling like you have to pick one or the other, use both your head and your heart as you ponder your future. Make an effort to let both have their say before making anything official. Reason and inspiration can walk together.
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
You may be realizing that a friend group is not for you — even if they initially seemed like they checked all the right boxes. Getting to know the team could show you how your preferences don't quite align in the ways that you'd hoped. It's okay to have tried to get along with a group of people, and then realized that their company isn't the kind of company you want to keep. You will find the right group for you.
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
The public reaction to your healing journey could be mixed. Some people might be thrilled for you, wanting to lift you up even more, while others might be jealous of your growth compared to their stagnation, attempting to drag you back down. You can identify these people by their reactions. Watch for those who are audibly happy for you, in contrast to those who downplay your achievements or ignore your hard work. Be kind, but step back from those who aren't happy for you.
Leo
July 23 – August 22
Knowledge is power. You might be seeking updated research as you study yourself or a subject that interests you, expanding your mind and providing yourself with refreshing opportunities. However, this could cause you to feel uncertain, as you may have to discard old, faulty knowledge and replace it with what you are learning now. Before abruptly tossing out everything you knew, be discerning, because you shouldn't believe everything that crosses your desk. Memorizing untrue details won't help anyone, so check the facts first.
Virgo
August 23 – September 22
Your emotions could be running high due to a lack of rest. Make a point of paying attention to what your emotions are telling you right now, especially if you've been repressing them as you handle your responsibilities. Pushing your soul down for too long can lead it to explode out of you without warning, so finding a balance between rest and work is vital. Instead of feeling like you have to be productive 24/7, remind yourself that you're only human. You need rest, too.
Libra
September 23 – October 22
You might not understand why you're feeling what you're feeling. Explaining your emotions to others will be particularly tough, because you may not be certain what you're feeling yourself. There may be those who will try to drag an answer out of you even though you're not ready to provide one. It's okay to be unsure! Don't let anyone force you to provide an answer when you're not ready to give one. Continue to look inward and understand yourself before trying to organize your words.
Scorpio
October 23 – November 21
Not all burdens are necessary for your future. You may have technically been able to set them down a long time ago, but continued to hold them because you were scared to put them down. Additionally, others potentially demanded that you keep clutching these pains, insisting that you would be betraying them if you chose to move on. The truth is, you're forgiving the past so that you can grow, or choosing to release historic stress over what you can't control. Choose healing.
Sagittarius
November 22 – December 21
You're providing yourself with the freedom others didn't give you. You might have been seeking the approval of other people before, but now, you're at a point in your life where you are no longer asking for permission. You're taking charge! Being your authentic self is incredibly brave. Even if the idea of showing the world who you are is intimidating, you have the strength to do it. Find a balance between what makes you feel alive and what makes you feel safe.
Capricorn
December 22 – January 19
Change is coming, Capricorn! Of course, you don't have to change everything about your life. Still, you may want to bring elements of something you've recently learned about into your everyday routine. It could be how other cultures live, how other people in your life behave, or even how you wanted to act when you were younger. These lifestyles may inspire you to adopt their ideas. Don't worry — instead of changing everything all at once, you're being asked to move slowly. Baby steps!
Aquarius
January 20 – February 18
You're shedding your old skin. When a style stops resonating with you, there's no need to force yourself to keep wearing it! Get creative with how you express yourself, and don't feel like you have to be tied down to aesthetics you represented before. While present culture might encourage you to have a solid 'brand,' this might be too much of a box for you to stay inside. Getting a haircut or wearing an unfamiliar outfit can be more freeing than you'd think.
Pisces
February 19 – March 20
You might feel caught between two ways of being. One side of you may want to be bold, intrepid, and explorative, while the other side craves tradition, coziness, and security. There's likely a way to fulfill both sides, even though this could seem paradoxical. You can slowly introduce new and interesting ways of living your life, while honoring age-old traditions and important family memories. Don't feel as though you have to completely let go of the past to be a part of the future.
