Your Career Horoscope for July 1, 2025
Today brings a mix of insights and pacing, encouraging steady progress and thoughtful reflection across your career path. Find daily astrological predictions for all sun signs for July 1. We recommend reading the horoscopes for your rising sign. Aries Career Horoscope With the Moon still in your work sector but separating from its alignment with Mars yesterday, you have the benefit of being able to tap into his warrior and competitive spirit, while the Moon's intuitive messages and insights will be starting to become more distinct. At the same time, drawing closer to a friendly aspect to Venus and Uranus in your income sector, there is a growing flow of information on the income and job fronts. Taurus Career Horoscope The lead up to the Moon's return to your work sector tomorrow is an important point in any month for having your antennas up while taking a wait and see approach. With Mercury still separating from his clash with Pluto in your career sector yesterday and some important days coming up on the income, work and career fronts, there is time to first process and take on board any work/life balance reminders over the last few days. Gemini Career Horoscope As the Moon crosses the lunar nodes, this is putting a spotlight on your work/life balance, but with no planets in your career sector for the Moon to clash with. While the North Node is there and you are able to benefit from its sense of professional direction, it is not a physical object. At the same time, with the asteroid Juno in her last full week in retrograde motion in your work sector and at a near standstill, even the professional gods are asking that you pace yourself. Click here to follow our WhatsApp channel for tarot readings, love, health, career, and Chinese horoscopes delivered to your phone daily! Cancer Career Horoscope With Neptune already at a standstill ahead of his retrograde turn in your career sector over the weekend, Saturn barely moving ahead of his retrograde turn here later next week and Eris slowing as she moves into her final three weeks in direct motion, the professional gods have the brakes on. As it will be another six days before the Moon comes full circle from a Full Moon in your work sector, there is a general call to pace yourself. Leo Career Horoscope While the Moon will form a friendly aspect to both Venus and Uranus in your career sector before leaving your income sector tomorrow, it is Venus who is most able to use this to her advantage. While Uranus works to keep you aware and open minded, as the planet of money Venus is going to use the Moon's sharp nose for money to make her final days as lucrative as possible. Virgo Career Horoscope Ten days after the Sun left your career sector, taking the solar spotlight off your career and professional situation, matters and options, it is still empty and in any other year, it would stay that way. Instead, with Venus just four days away and by this time next week Uranus here for the first time in eight decades, this is more a chance for some breathing space and to create a firebreak between the professional year so far and the second half of the year. Libra Career Horoscope The Sun has only been in your career sector for 10 days, but already a lot of water has passed under the bridge and a lot has been packed in. While the Moon and Mercury left late last week, they were both here for last week's New Moon and as the Sun and Jupiter aligned here for the first time in over a decade. This has left you with a lot to unpack at a time when Jupiter's quest for job growth and expansion is just getting started. Scorpio Career Horoscope At the same time that Mercury is settling into his first full week in your career sector and as the fastest planet in the solar system he is making fast tracks, on the job front all five planets are slowing down. With Neptune turning retrograde in your work sector later this week, Saturn in retrograde motion by the end of next week, and both barely moving, when it comes to day to day work and job matters, there is a need to pace yourself. Sagittarius Career Horoscope Halfway between the Moon's alignment with Mars in your career sector yesterday and its friendly aspect to Uranus and Venus in your work sector before it leaves tomorrow, the Moon is picking up information and insight on both fronts and relaying them to your subconscious in a way that allows you to marry the two. This includes a mix of where you are going professionally and of how to navigate the next few days on the job front. Capricorn Career Horoscope The lead up to the Moon's return to your career sector tomorrow is an important point in any month for having your antennas up while taking a wait and see approach. Especially as with the Moon set to leave a day before Venus returns to your work sector, this is the last full day for another four months when there are no planets in either of your two money houses. Aquarius Career Horoscope It has only been 10 days since the Sun returned to your work sector, something that on the June solstice each year will always see the solar spotlight shift onto your work situation, job matters and options, but already a lot of water has passed under the bridge. It was last week's New Moon and the first alignment between the Sun and Jupiter in over a decade that has set things in motion, while the Moon and Mercury's departure has left you with a mix of intuition and logic, imagination and intelligence that you can continue to access. Pisces Career Horoscope After a bumpy start, as Mercury settles into his first full week in your work sector, he is separating from his clash with Pluto that peaked over the weekend. From his position in a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart, Pluto is now the watchkeeper and will be for the next two decades, reminding each planet that returns to your work sector the importance of knowing when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off. Fortunately, Mercury is a smart and practical planet.

July 2025 Horoscope: Travel Hiccups Might Change Your Plans for the Better
The other big news this month is Saturn and Neptune both stationing retrograde in your seventh house of relationships in the first half of July. So you're starting to see the writing on the wall about a significant other, or maybe the hard thing you're trying to do together is even harder than you anticipated. Maybe it's your current lack of partnership that's causing you to rethink some things about your life. This might be connected to your family or where you live, and the July 10 full moon in Capricorn will probably bring these issues into focus. Whether you're considering where to put down roots or where to visit, it seems like location can really make or break your experience right now. Scorpio Rising Things are pretty up in the air this month workwise, so your advice for July is to avoid committing to anything prematurely and to be patient with the process as you gather intel from your beta launch. Saturn and Neptune both station retrograde in your sixth house of work and health in the first half of July, and Mercury will go retrograde in your tenth house of career and status on July 18. There are some top-level logistical bugs to fix—some messaging that needs to be tweaked, or conversations to be revisited with your boss—as well as deeper issues to confront around your current capacity to handle everything that's on your plate. Certain aspects of your job have probably felt harder recently, and maybe your health isn't exactly running smoothly in the background, where you don't have to pay attention to it. Maybe you're struggling to manage more than your own workload because you're understaffed, or you're coming to terms with the fact that something about your project isn't going to work in its current form. Whatever the problem is, now is a really good time to be honest about what moving forward is going to require, to prioritize the needs of your body, and to take it all in stride if your deadlines are getting pushed back. Your ruling planet, Mars, also spends much of the month approaching a conjunction to the South Node on July 20. This is another sign that you're probably feeling pretty burned out right now, or that you'll have to surrender your plans and your need to have it all micromanaged efficiently. Indeed, wherever you've been going with your team, it seems as though you'll have to spend halftime erasing the whiteboard in the locker room and doing a tactical adjustment. It's entirely possible people won't be in the most peaceful or cooperative mood. If grievances need to be aired, hopefully it'll help everyone let off steam and move forward, but look out for some tempers and general combativeness between July 20 and 23 in particular. If all of this sounds exhausting, you're probably right! This is the kind of thing that could easily eat up time on your trip as you log on at the hotel room to answer urgent emails, or require that you ask for more help. Fortunately, Saturn's retrograde could be the perfect opportunity to take work off your plate, to have more flexibility around your job, and to walk back any commitments that may have been a bit premature in hindsight. Additionally, Venus and Uranus taking up co-residence in your eighth house could throw some unexpected support or funding your way in July. Take the help where you can get it, remain flexible, and don't mourn the plan that didn't come to pass too much. Sagittarius Rising In case no one told you lately, you're allowed to rethink everything. So much of what this current moment amounts to is that you're outgrowing the dream an older version of you had for your own life. You're also getting super honest with yourself about what it's going to take to bring your future into fruition. As Saturn and Neptune both station retrograde in the first half of July, happening in tandem with a Mars-South Node conjunction in your tenth house of career on July 20, you might put one of your more ambitious creative projects on ice for the time being as you run out of steam or reckon with how hard it's actually going to be to accomplish. If you're a parent (or thinking about becoming one), this could just as easily be about realizing that your kids need more attention from you right now, and that probably means something about how much energy you can afford to give to your work right now. The full moon in Capricorn on July 10 brings these things into sharp relief, and it might come with a price tag or a realization around how your financial reality might be affected if you change up the game plan. How to Travel With Kids, According to Globetrotting Parents Toddlers, teens, and everything in between. To be clear, 'putting things on ice' doesn't mean 'killing the project entirely.' Maybe you just need more time for things to bake. Mercury will also retrograde through your ninth house of travel, perspective, and knowledge beginning on July 18, so assuming you're not on a very literal journey of taking the scenic route, there's a lot of philosophical ferment happening for you through July and part of August — perhaps because you're rethinking what you believe and know about the world, or because you're literally going back through the notes you took in school. This could also be a meaningful time to go on a trip or visit places you've been before, but don't expect your travels to go entirely as planned. There's a higher-than-average chance of mysteriously vanished reservations, scrambled itineraries, and missed flight connections. But if you can embrace the chaos, there's a good chance you'll end up making meaningful connections along the way.

KOORUI G2741L Long-Term Review: A Well-Tuned 4K Gaming Monitor That Works as Hard as You Do
Monitors used to be simpler. You bought one for gaming, one for work, or compromised somewhere in between. But modern users don't live in isolated categories anymore. You might spend mornings in spreadsheets, afternoons in Tears of the Kingdom , and evenings in Overwatch . That's the use case the KOORUI G2741L quietly nails: it's a versatile, technically sound, and visually refined 27' monitor that adapts to multiple roles without demanding attention. Over the past two weeks, I've used it in every way I could think of—plugged into Steam Deck, PS5, PC, even briefly with a Mac mini—and it always felt like the right choice. Never overkill, never underwhelm. Just… right. Here's why. A Design That Doesn't Beg for Attention—but Still Earns It Let's begin where most reviews don't: design integration. Not just 'does it look good?' but does it fit your setup? The G2741L's aesthetic is clean, unbranded, and refreshingly neutral: Thin 3-side bezels blend seamlessly in multi-monitor setups Matte plastic with subtle texture resists fingerprints The V-shaped base is narrow enough to leave desk space for a keyboard and audio interface Its rear I/O is slightly recessed, helping it sit closer to the wall—a welcome detail for minimalist setups I ran it in two contexts: A standing desk, paired with a 16' MacBook Pro on a vertical stand A seated console+PC gaming space with dual controller docks and a Razer soundbar In both cases, it looked cohesive, not intrusive. It doesn't shout. It listens to your room. Assembly & Adjustability: Thoughtful, Functional The stand took 3 minutes to assemble (tool-free), and felt solid with a good weight balance. Tilt, height, and swivel adjustments all moved smoothly, with satisfying resistance. I tested multiple positions throughout a workday—from writing at eye level to tilted low during a gamepad session—and the hinge never wobbled or shifted. Cable management isn't flashy, but the angled I/O layout helps route HDMI and DisplayPort cleanly down the back. If you're someone who hates seeing cables from the front (I do), this helps. Panel Performance: A Fast IPS That Doesn't Fudge the Numbers At the heart of the G2741L is a Fast IPS panel with: Native 3840×2160 @ 160Hz or 1920×1080 @ 320Hz or 1ms MPRT , with customizable Overdrive , with customizable Overdrive 95% DCI-P3 color space , factory-tuned to ΔE ≤ 2 , factory-tuned to HDR400 certified , with 10-bit color (8-bit + FRC) , with 10-bit color (8-bit + FRC) Hardware-level low blue light and flicker-free backlight Real-world testing impressed me: Colors are neutral and rich without artificial saturation HDR400 improves contrast and highlight detail in games like Spider-Man: Miles Morales No visible inverse ghosting or overdrive artifacts at 160Hz or 320Hz Text rendering at 4K 100% scale is crisp and natural In Blur Busters' UFO test , 320Hz mode performed admirably, with motion clarity rivaling high-end esports displays. Spent several hours in DaVinci Resolve and Figma—no white point or gamma tweaks needed. Skin tones looked real, grayscale was balanced, gradients smooth. Real-World Gaming Across Four Platforms Platform Native Support HDR Experience Switch 1080p60 No Exceptionally clean upscaling; vibrant, comfortable brightness Steam Deck 1080p60 No Text remains sharp in desktop mode; gameplay felt responsive and artifact-free PS5 4K60 / 1080p120 ✅ HDR auto-detected; GT7 and Horizon Forbidden West were immersive PC (RTX 3060) 4K160 / 1080p320 ✅ Cyberpunk in 4K DLSS ran well; Apex Legends at 320Hz was clean and lag-free Why the Dual Refresh Mode Actually Matters The most underrated feature: instant switching between 4K160Hz and 1080p320Hz. Use 4K for work, creative tools, single-player games, or media Flip to 1080p/320Hz for esports or lower-end GPUs KOORUI makes it quick via OSD—no digging through menus. Great for shared-use monitors and multi-genre gamers. Comparing the Competition KOORUI G2741L vs. LG 27GP850 LG: Brighter (400+ nits vs ~330) Better DCI-P3 coverage (98% vs 95%) But no 4K or 320Hz modes KOORUI vs. Gigabyte M27Q M27Q has USB-C + KVM, but only 1440p KOORUI has better overdrive control and color consistency KOORUI vs. ASUS VG27AQ ASUS is 1440p and esports-optimized KOORUI is more balanced for creative + gaming ASUS wins on input lag; KOORUI wins on clarity and flexibility Office Use & Design Work: No Compromises Here Figma: Precision in anchor points and curves Google Docs: Zero edge haze, crystal-clear Zoom: Natural skin tones Lightroom: Smooth transitions and shadow previews 8+ hours, no eye strain. Low-blue-light mode reduces edge glare without yellowing whites. Who This Is For Users who want one display for everything Gamers with Switch, PS5, Steam Deck, and PC Remote workers who game and need 4K workspace clarity Aesthetes who want hardware that blends into their space Final Verdict: A Rarely Balanced Monitor That Feels Built for the Way We Use Screens Today The KOORUI G2741L doesn't shout. It doesn't posture. It just shows up—technically sound, visually honest, and smarter than most competitors. It's not just a gaming monitor. It's a monitor that games . That works . That fits. For users expecting one screen to do it all, it's a standout option. Check on Amazon Recommended For: Cross-platform gamers Designers who game Work-from-home users who value motion clarity Setup aesthetes About KOORUI KOORUI is a global monitor brand powered by HKC, one of the world's largest panel makers.

Your daily horoscope: June 26, 2025
A un-Mars link on your birthday will encourage you to travel and have fun this year but don't get carried away and sign up for activities that could cost more cash than you've got in the bank. Always make sure you get value for money. It's time to knuckle down to some serious work and today's link between the sun and Mars will put you in the right frame of mind to give whatever it is you are working on your very best shot. Never offer less than 100 per cent. Get together with loved ones today and talk through anything that you feel has been coming between you. A happy home life is the essential foundation for all sorts of success, so make sure they know you have only good feelings for them. If you keep your options open today you can find an easy route to a goal that you started to move toward at the start of the week. Sometimes you try too hard to prove yourself and that can cause friction that is both unnecessary and restrictive. You may be in the mood to do extraordinary things but you could so easily waste time and energy on stuff that is of no real importance. What is your No. 1 goal? Focus on that and nothing else today, tomorrow and over the weekend. As mind planet Mercury moves into your sign today your confidence will soar and tasks you thought would be too much for you will seem surprisingly easy. Don't take on too much though because there are still physical limits you need to observe. Your tendency to think too much needs to be curbed as it could hold you back from doing stuff that you know won't be easy. Learn to control your fears and act as if there is nothing and no one that can hold you back from your destiny. Something you once took for granted is no longer a sure thing and you will be asking yourself some serious questions about it over the next 24 hours. Changes in your working routine will be needed, but don't ever change your dreams. You need to speak up and let people in positions of authority know who you are and what you can do. It's not enough just to do your best and expect the world to notice and reward you – you also need to do lots of personal marketing. The fact that someone in authority does not approve of what you are doing won't hold you back for even a second. You honestly believe that, if the powers that be are against you, then you must be doing the right thing. And you are! Be realistic about what you can achieve over the next few weeks but don't set your sights too low. You are at your best when there is a challenge in front of you that forces you to go the extra mile. Just don't make it a marathon! You may not really care what friends and colleagues think about something of a social or political nature but you would be wise to at least listen to what they have to say. If you don't, you could end up looking out of touch. The more others press you to follow a plan through to the end the more likely it is you will rebel and do things in a less structured way. It won't make you any new friends but it will make what you have to do a lot more interesting. Discover more about yourself at

Your Career Horoscope for June 21, 2025
Find daily astrological predictions for all sun signs for June 21. We recommend reading the horoscopes for your rising sign. Aries Career Horoscope The Moon not only returns for its only visit to your income sector while Venus, the planet of money is here but its first since Mars returned to your work sector earlier in the week.

Taurus Career Horoscope As the Sun leaves your income sector, for now this ends the support that has been there for Pluto in your career sector. Since Jupiter returned to your income sector in May 2024, no planet has returned to your income sector without spending its early days at a friendly aspect to Mars, something that Venus, the planet of money will do when she returns in two weeks. Mars will do the same when he returns to your work sector in six weeks, with the best still to come. Gemini Career Horoscope Mercury, who returned to your income sector last week but will leave again next week, is still separating from a friendly aspect to Juno on the job front, when he moves into another to the North Node in your career sector.

Things kick off with the Moon's friendly aspect to Mars in your work sector, as it makes its only visit while Venus, the planet of money is working to steer this professional year in a lucrative direction. Virgo Career Horoscope While the Sun's departure from your career sector today is the point when, on the June solstice each year, the solar spotlight will always shift off your career and professional situation, matters and options, this is far from the end of the story.

Until then, after Jupiter left and ended his nearly 13 month visit last week, there is a chance to first stand back and unpack the journey so far. Aquarius Career Horoscope While the Sun will always return to your work sector on the June solstice and this is the point in each year that the solar spotlight will always shift onto your work situation and job matters, from the start it will be clear that everything has changed. As well as returning to find Jupiter, the planet of luck and expansion here for the first time in over a decade, with the stars aligned on income, work and career fronts in a way not normally seen at this time of year. Pisces Career Horoscope In between Mars' departure from your work sector earlier in the week, Mercury's return next week and with the impact from last week's Full Moon on the career front still playing out, the Moon is wrapping up a visit to your income sector that has brought a chance to focus on the money.
