Your daily horoscope: June 2, 2025
There are more important things in life than making money and climbing the greasy pole to success and over the coming year you will find yourself pursuing goals of a more spiritual nature. Remember: The more you help others the more the universe helps you. Don't let the fact that you recently said something you regret spoil the whole week for you. If you have feelings of remorse the only way you are going to get past them is to seek out those you wronged and say sorry. Make sure you mean it. You should know by now that there is no such thing as something for nothing in this world. If you gained handsomely from someone's generosity the universe will expect you to be generous in return. How can you make them happy today? Do what you can to help a friend in need but don't put yourself out to such an extent that your own plans suffer. This may be one of those occasions when the best advice you can give them is to toughen up and sort it out themselves. You can sometimes be too nice for your own good and the planets warn it would be a mistake to let someone off the hook for an offense they should be penalized for. If you don't feel able to punish them then just ask someone who will. You may be an outgoing Leo but you need to spend some time alone today to get your thoughts in order. Only then will you be able to push ahead with your plans while ignoring your critics, of which there may be more than a few. This is a great time to approach employers and other powerful people and let them know about your latest big idea. Don't wait for them to invite you to speak, take the initiative and let them know who you are and what you can do. The time is fast approaching when you will be in a much better position to push ahead with your plans, so get both your personal and professional houses in order and be ready to seize the initiative when the moment arrives. Leave your rivals trailing. You have been endowed by the universe with an incredibly strong willpower and if you go after a goal of some sort over the next few days there is no doubt you will reach it. Try not to tread on too many toes along the way though! If a partner or loved one makes a mistake of some kind today you are advised to pretend you did not notice and to carry on as usual. They will know that you know, of course, but your sensitivity to their plight will earn their considerable gratitude. You can at times be a bit too serious and your main aim today should be to lighten your mood so you can enjoy life more. Time spent with a friend who makes you laugh could be the best investment you have made in a long time. Be open about what you intend to do over the next few days and invite loved ones to join you in the journey. Because you are such a self-contained individual others tend to see you as overly aloof and that's an image which needs improving. The more upheavals there have been on the home front of late the more receptive partners and loved ones will be if you offer them an olive branch. You don't have to admit it was all your fault but you do have to shoulder some of the blame. Discover more about yourself at

'Kim, Daniel and David have all exhibited incredible levels of courage and determination to persevere through unprecedented challenges to tell stories that matter,' said CAJ president Brent Jolly. 'They are living proof that even in today's fragmented age, journalism matters. The power of the pen to tell the truth and expose wrongdoing is an endeavour that is so vital to the proper functioning of our society.' Bolan has reported for the Vancouver Sun since 1984. She has reported on wars in El Salvador, Guatemala and Afghanistan, covered the Air India terrorist attack and its aftermath, and spent much of her career 'shining a spotlight on a long list of minority, women's, education and social service issues,' said the CAJ in a news release on Sunday.

'Despite numerous threats on her life over the past 40 years from gangs and militant groups, Bolan's commitment to the craft has been unwavering,' Jolly said. Renaud, who works for La Presse in Montreal, was honoured after reports surfaced last year that chronicled how he had been targeted for assassination for reporting on organized crime in 2021. Pugliese has been with Postmedia's Ottawa Citizen for more than 40 years and specializes in covering the ever-secretive Department of National Defence. Last year, he was accused of being a paid KGB agent in the 1980s by a former federal cabinet minister testifying at a House of Commons committee meeting on Russian political interference. Jolly called the allegations, which have never been repeated outside Parliament, 'nothing more than a McCarthy-esque smear job.' The Charles Bury Award was presented last year to the Committee to Protect Journalists for their commitment to ensuring the safety and security of journalists who work in some of the most dangerous environments around the world. The annual award recognizes both organizations and individual journalists for contributing to a free press. jruttle@ Read More Vancouver Whitecaps Vancouver Canucks Sports Junior Hockey News
