Today's horoscope as one star sign tries to avoid the spotlight
It's Saturday, July 5 and one star sign is feeling in need of advice, while another catches up on their to-do list.
There are 12 zodiac signs - Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces - and the horoscopes for each can give you the lowdown on what your future holds, be it in work, your love life, your friends and family or more.
These daily forecasts have been compiled by astrologer Russell Grant, who has been reading star signs for over 50 years. From Aries through to Pisces, here's what today could bring for your horoscope - and what you can do to be prepared.
Aries (Mar 21 - Apr 20)
Avoid people who seem to have been deliberately putting problems in your way. Distance yourself from anyone who has been dragging you down. While you won't want to come across as being unkind, staying positive in a difficult situation is starting to drain you.
Taurus (Apr 21 - May 21)
Today promises to be a really good day for you. Share your happiness with everyone you meet. Enjoy a delicious lunch with friends, take part in group activities and let that joy multiply. Make the most of the positive cosmic energy that surrounds you.
Gemini (May 22 - June 21)
Stay calm and be sensible when meeting up with friends or mixing in a crowd. Enjoy the time you all spend together without feeling the need to steal the spotlight. Constantly being the centre of attention can be quite stressful and exhausting. For now, stay in the background.
Cancer (June 22 - July 23)
You may not have been planning on going anywhere today or doing anything this evening but a surprise invitation could come your way. Take this chance to try a new restaurant or bar. Give yourself permission to relax and have fun. If you're in a group, agree on a designated driver.
Leo (July 24 - Aug 23)
Events going on around you have become the centre of everyone's conversations. You're getting advice from friends and workmates and now even your family is chiming in. While many people have their opinions, you really need to trust your own instincts.
Virgo (Aug 24 - Sept 23)
You often find it hard to switch off especially when responsibilities are heavy. Make some time to relax today. Take deep breaths; meditate and enjoy some calming music. Spend some time playing fetch with your dog. Walk in nature. Choose activities that bring you peace and tranquillity.
Libra (Sept 24 - Oct 23)
A kind and supportive friend will introduce you to the finer things in life that will immediately appeal to you. They have a charming way of getting their ideas across which makes you want to take their advice. Someone at home is asking you to be wary of people you hardly know.
Scorpio (Oct 24 - Nov 22)
A friend or colleague will seek your guidance on a health issue. This makes you uncomfortable as you don't want to offer advice when you aren't familiar with the details and know nothing about their circumstances. Suggest they reach out to their doctor or practice nurse.
Sagittarius (Nov 23 - Dec 21)
It is time to deal with those tasks you pushed aside earlier even if you still aren't keen on doing them. Be sure to express your gratitude to those who have been a good help to you lately and people who support you daily. It will mean a lot to them to know they are appreciated.
Capricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 20)
Share your thoughts and opinions openly for a change. Your insights will benefit a group project. Although you might prefer to remain in the background, join in the conversation. Don't be shy. A new study project that's being discussed will get your interest.
Aquarius (Jan 21 - Feb 19)
You can trust your instincts when tackling family issues and other problems. You could find it beneficial to seek advice from a sensible friend. Above all, remember that there is no need to have to face everything by yourself.
Pisces (Feb 20 - Mar 20)
Move beyond your past and let go of ties that have been holding you ba ck. Start shaping a happier future for yourself now. Tackle issues that have been keeping you from fulfilling your true potential. Release bad habits and embrace the power of forgiveness.

You may feel an urge to break bonds or cut talks, but it's best to stick with situations until you are truly sure. In love, the less someone says, the more they can mean. A full moon of surprise success can help restart a business plan. TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21 12 What matters most to you is in your personal spotlight, as you see that value can lie so much deeper than cash. "Surprise" decisions linked to your future can feel so familiar once you make them, and as major planets move, this can be the week to do so. The next seven years can be quite an adventure. A learning path may start slow but speed up very fast, so give it some thought. GEMINI MAY 22 - JUNE 21 12 Your own sign welcomes the most unruly, imaginative of planets, Uranus, to start a seven-year spell of making your own happiness your hot pick. You know you have sidelined true needs and feelings; now excuses fade and excitement can flourish. In love, the full moon's emotional depth helps your eyes say everything your heart feels. If you're single, your soulmate has a transforming job. CANCER JUNE 22 - JULY 22 12 Keeping secrets may have become second nature, but it's time now to break the habit. You have support from planets of independence and honesty, but the true determination comes from inside yourself. A more open atmosphere, at home and at work, is where you can grow best. In love terms, too, holding back any doubts may feel like a strong move, but it can weaken you. LEO JULY 23 - AUG 23 12 Love is on the brink of a new phase that may challenge you more, but also reward you better. If you're with a partner and resist two-way change because you're still unsure, this week's big planet moves can inspire courage. If you're single, ditching a past dating plan and starting afresh, with input from your oldest friend, can be a positive move. Shimmering surfaces link to luck. VIRGO AUG 24 - SEPT 22 12 Your pure personal creativity is intensified by the full moon, so big ideas can come to you in the smallest, quietest moments. But you will instantly recognize these as something special. Matching music to special moments is a key skill all week, and you can also return to a goal everyone else may have considered too outrageous for you. It's time to prove them all wrong! LIBRA SEPT 23 - OCT 23 12 So many barriers fall, boundaries extend, and doors open wide as planet Uranus shifts to a fellow air sign. Maximizing this momentous zodiac time may not always be easy, but you can learn so much about yourself and your life. Resetting romance more on your terms can be one outcome. If you're single, this includes road-testing two worlds-apart potential romances. SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22 12 Everything you think you know can be changing along with Uranus; a time of new self-awareness can begin. You now see where you may have made too many sacrifices or wasted too much time, and you focus instead on being your most authentic self. This can make your closest bonds mean more to you, as you see and accept clearly what you need to do next. SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 - DEC 21 12 The right deal is not always the most obvious in love and life. This week you feel rebellion stir deep inside, plus the ability to shake up situations everyone else may feel are fixed. The next seven years can take you towards new titles, looks, addresses, plus a partnership that refreshes romance every day and never gets dull. A money-minded moon monitors impulse buys. CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20 12 Your career chart is more open than it's been for years, so this can be your moment to turn vague ambitions into serious action. Making one call or writing one message can be Step One on a thrilling new path. Plus your mindset changes, to see mistakes as positive steps, not negative obstacles. In love, with the Capricorn full moon, you can say and do unusually daring things. AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 18 12 You've never been one to follow the pack or the rules, and this week's Uranus shift emphasizes how unique you truly are. There's such a strong chart creative streak, but it's a good idea to take your time, don't rush headlong and headstrong into the first option. Better ones may be ahead. Passion is wide awake, and rousing a previously sleeping part of your heart. PISCES FEB 19 - MAR 20 12 It really matters to you to be a good friend and family member. But your chart question this week asks - do you get back as much as you give? It may be time to scale back your gifts, in everything from time to lifts to cash, if you know this is a one-way situation. In love, feeling secure in yourself starts with accepting your flaws. If single, your dream date has a guidance job.

Your info will be used in accordance with our Privacy Policy CANCER JUNE 22 - JULY 22 1 Keeping secrets may have become second nature, but it's time now to break the habit. You have support from planets of independence and honesty, but the true determination comes from inside yourself. A more open atmosphere, at home and at work, is where you can grow best. In love terms, too, holding back any doubts may feel like a strong move, but it can weaken you. DESTINY DAYS Double-check all measurements, especially on Tuesday. A casual work chat on Wednesday can lead to a firm offer by Friday. What is your star sign's element? In astrology, the elements — Air, Water, Earth, and Fire signs — serve as foundational principles that influence the characteristics and behaviours associated with the twelve star signs. Earth signs: Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn The Earth signs are grounded in the tangible and practical aspects of life, embodying the stable and nurturing qualities of their element. These signs are known for their pragmatism, reliability, and strong connection to the physical world, often excelling in matters that require patience and persistence. Air Signs: Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius The Air signs are characterised by their intellectual, communicative, and social nature. This reflects the light and dynamic essence of their elemental influence. Overall, these signs tend to excel in the realms of ideas, relationships, and innovation, bringing a breath of fresh air to their interactions and thought processes. Water Signs: Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces The Water element signs are profoundly impacted by their element. With each astrological sign, water gives way to emotional depth, strong intuition, and a capacity for deep empathy and connection. Fire Signs: Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius Fuelled by the element of Fire, these fire signs in astrology are known for their passion, boldness, energy, enthusiasm, courage, and a zest for life that often leads them to adventurous and creative endeavours. LUCKY LINKS A street linked to "G". The theme tune for your favourite comedy show. An outfit in three parts. THE NEW U So many things you hide away because you are not sure how they would be received, even by people who really care about you. As zodiac maverick Uranus switches signs, the only version of you that can work in the world is one that is upfront and genuine, and encourages/allows others to be the same. This may mean breaking and remaking bonds. But you are prepared for this, and over the next seven years, you will rediscover who you really are. The New U, for Cancer, has a near-psychic sense of what you need, and pays attention to it.
