Happy Birthday for Thursday, July 31, 2025:
You are energetic, determined and focused. You love to learn and share your knowledge, especially about academia. This is a slower-paced year. It’s OK to rest. Take time to rejuvenate your energy. Focus on business and personal relationships, especially with people who have your back.
ARIES
(March 21-April 19)
★★★
Today blows hot and cold when it comes to discussions about shared property, banking matters and inheritances. Initially, people are warm, receptive and cooperative. However, by late afternoon, power struggles might get nasty. (Yikes.) Tonight: Check your finances.
TAURUS
(April 20-May 20)
★★★
Cooperate with others, because today it’s best to go along to get along. Relations with daily contacts, siblings, relatives and neighbors are warm and friendly; however, late in the day, you might be at odds with an authority figure. Stay chill. Tonight: Cooperate.
GEMINI
(May 21-June 20)
★★★
You feel healthy and robust! You might enjoy time with your pet. At work, co-workers are friendly and supportive. Unfortunately, by the end of the day, much of this feel-good energy will dissolve in a power struggle, especially about politics, religion or racial issues. Be careful. Tonight: Get organized.
CANCER
(June 21-July 22)
★★★★
This is a lovely day for a power breakfast or a friendly lunch with someone. Enjoy schmoozing with kids, romantic partners and friends this morning. You’re in a good mood, and others find you to be charming and diplomatic. This is a good thing, because power struggles at the end of the day might be a challenge. Tonight: Relax.
LEO
(July 23-Aug. 22)
★★★
Of course, you feel this Mercury retrograde, which is taking place in LEO. You’re not losing it. This, too, shall pass. This morning is ideal for entertaining at home or enjoying a family discussion. Ironically, late in the day, family members might be at odds with each other. Patience. Tonight: Cocoon.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
★★★★
Interactions with friends, groups and organizations will be successful this morning. You might be pleased to deal with someone who has artistic talent to bring to the table. Later in the day, challenges related to your work, your health or your pet might be discouraging. Steer clear of bullies. Tonight: Lively conversations.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
★★★
You might buy something this morning that pleases you. You also might have excellent moneymaking ideas that impress someone in power, or perhaps an old friend. Later in the day, avoid power struggles with your kids or a romantic partner. Do what you can to keep the peace. Tonight: Check your belongings.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
★★★★
Today the Moon is in your sign, which is empowering. Yes, it heightens your emotions. But it gives you a little edge over all the other signs. Travel plans and dealings with people from other cultures are successful this morning. Later in the day, be patient with family members who challenge you. Tonight: You win!
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
★★★
This morning, your day might be brightened by a spark of passionate romance. In addition, financial discussions about shared property and inheritances will benefit you. However, later in the day, be patient to avoid arguments about inconsequential things. Tonight: Enjoy privacy.
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
★★★★
Enjoy the company of friends and members of groups and organizations. In fact, any meeting or gathering this morning will be successful because people feel friendly and mutually supportive. So far, so good. Late in the day, disputes about money or possessions could arise. Be cool. Tonight: Be friendly.
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
★★★
You look great today! Use this to your advantage and go after what you want. This could be handy, because many of you are dealing with ex-partners and old friends. However, later in the day, compulsive behavior, or a sudden urge to do something might not be in your best interests. Tonight: You’re admired.
PISCES
(Feb. 19-March 20)
★★★★
Travel plans appeal to you this morning. In fact, you might develop a crush or fall in love with someone who is “different.” Unfortunately, later in the day, arguments about controversial issues like politics and religion could get nasty. Maintain your cool. Tonight: Explore, learn!
