What Saturn Retrograde means for your star sign: A horoscope reading for the current cosmic event
Saturn, the planet of restriction, constraint, and structure is going retrograde, but don't fret, it's not as crazy as it sounds — it's actually a softer time to express your desires, and it might make you more apt to hear what others have to say and accept someone else's perspective. Starting 13th July, Saturn started moving backwards in Aries and Pisces, which it will do for the next several months. When Saturn turns retrograde in Aries, it's urging us to take control of our lives, boss up, and commit to others on a deeper level. Then when Saturn Retrograde moves into Pisces on 1st September, it will be essential for us to understand our intuition and maintain boundaries with others. It's easy to get swept up in other people's drama, but you don't have to be a part of the game. If it doesn't concern you directly, it's best to stay out of it. To use the energy to your benefit, consider taking up a hobby or creative venture in order to put the move to good use. Read below for how Saturn Retrograde 2025 will impact each zodiac sign. Even though you've been taking life seriously, you'll find that loosening up a little bit won't keep you off your path. A few distractions here and there are bad; they will allow you to cut loose and have a more joyful approach to matters. You deserve a break too, Aries. This is a time in which you'll be able to heal the past in unorthodox ways, so book a spa visit, a Reiki session, or spend a few minutes in downward dog to reinvigorate your senses. Aligning your body, mind, and spirit allows you to connect with your inner self. Your crew is getting smaller, allowing you to suss out who your ride-or-dies are. Frenemies come and go, but your true besties stay around and never leave your side. Although you will be sad to part ways with some pals, consider it a blessing in disguise because they're low-key haters. This is your time to shine at work! Flex your skills and knowledge at the office to show your boss that you are more than able and willing to take on any task that comes your way. A positive attitude can go a long way towards your success and future. Your plans to holiday in style on the French Riviera might be on hold due to financial constraints. That doesn't mean you won't have fun glamping and drinking champagne by the campfire with s'mores. It's all about the company you keep and perspective. You can make memories anywhere you go. Ugh, boundaries! Yes, you're on the never-ending quest to implement and maintain them and use them to your advantage. However, you must ensure you're adhering to the limits set. Nothing is worse than being a hypocrite when you crafted the rules. Be aware and mindful of your actions, Virgo. If you're questioning the status of your love life, it means that you want to forge a 'ship with your crush. Don't be shy; this is the optimal moment for you to form the dynamic you want. The summer and fall are your cuffing season. Stay tuned for more love. Committing to a routine is easier than you know if you choose to make your own schedule. It's a great time for specific activities without rigidity. After all, eating lunch 10 minutes after your iCal calls for it will not end the world (maybe if you're hangry). Dating is hard enough, especially when you want to discuss every aspect of life instead of your favourite movies. Yes, you're getting deep, but that doesn't mean you should immediately overshare your thoughts and personal insights. Keep it light, upping the first meeting, and express your innermost feelings in time. Rebelling against your family was fun when you were a tween, but as an adult, you want their acceptance. Speak your mind and let your brood know how you feel. If your beliefs juxtapose with theirs, you might be able to teach them a lesson or two about your ideology. The gossip swirling in your orbit isn't anything new; however, it doesn't make it any less frustrating. Now, you can squash the tea by offering the truth. Shutting the rumour mill down for good is the only way to stop it from reappearing in the months ahead. You got this! A financial matter from the past is coming back to haunt you. But you can ghostbust your way back to financial stability. Use this time to consolidate debt or enter into a payment agreement. You'll find that being accountable and discussing the matter openly will help in mending the issue.

The Scottish 'spa break for two' on edge of loch you can book at discounted rate
One guest praised its "truly stunning location". A spa break for two in Scotland is now available to book at a discounted rate. The accomodation is nestled in the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park. Drimsynie Estate Holiday Village is situated along the edge of Loch Goil, near the charming village of Lochgoilhead. The holiday village features the award-winning Drimsynie Hotel, as well as various leisure facilities. Those interested in a getaway can book an overnight or two-night stay at Drimsynie Estate Holiday Village through Wowcher. The accommodation can be booked for as little as £149, plus a £6.99 admin fee, which is a discount of 38 per cent. Visitors can choose from either a double or twin room at the Drimsynie Hotel, which both include en-suite bathrooms with complimentary toiletries and flatscreen television. The rooms also benefit from views of Loch Goil or the surrounding mountains. Guests at the hotel have full access to Drimsynie's leisure facilities, including its swimming pool, sauna, steam room, and jacuzzi. There is also a gym and fitness suite, as well as a bowling alley. The holiday village is also home to the Sequoia Spa, where visitors can enjoy a range of treatments. These include massages, facials, Reiki, and crystal healing. Meanwhile, guests also receive a cooked breakfast each morning and £25 per person towards a starter and main at dinner at one of Drimsynie's on-site restaurants. There are a number of dining options available, including The View Restaurant and Fireside Bar—as well as takeaways. There are also a range of activities on offer around the holiday park. Among these are axe throwing, golf, and a funhouse. If the Drimsynie Hotel does not appeal, there are other accommodation options in the area to choose from. These include the Lochwood Guest House that overlooks Loch Goil and the Thistle House Guest House along the edge of Loch Fyne. On Tripadvisor, most visitors to Drimsynie Holiday Village have left positive feedback. The holiday village has a rating of 3.9 out of five based on 1,849 reviews. A recent guest posted: "The hotel is set in a truly stunning location with amazing views of Lochgoilhead, and there's no shortage of things to do—from peaceful nature walks to adrenaline-filled outdoor activities. "It's worth booking some of these in advance to make the most of your stay, especially popular options like the cinema and water sports." They added: "The real highlight of our stay was the spa. The treatments were exactly what you'd hope for from a good hotel spa, and Jane deserves a special mention—she was not only incredibly skilled, but also warm, welcoming, and professional. "Her massage was hands down the best we've had in a long time—a real standout moment of our trip." However, a negative review reads: "Avoid—hugely disappointing stay. My family and I were really looking forward to our break at Drimsynie, but unfortunately, the experience fell far short of expectations—especially for the price we paid." A four star review states: "We stayed in the hotel; standard room which was a good size. good condition and comfy bed; slight wear and tear noted on some of the furniture but nothing major; shower area was lovely; walk-in shower; maybe not the most powerful but was perfectly fine."
