Your horoscope for summer 2025: A star sign reading for what to expect from the months ahead
Summer brings the heat, the heartbeat, and the highlights of the whole year. Everything glistens, sparkles, and feels more possible, positive, and playful. We are ingrained with the idea of summer holidays, even if we're not taking one, and this permission to kick back and have fun is something to celebrate and hold onto! Summer began in Cancer season (June 21st), a healing and home-focused time. Get yourself and your pad ready for the season-spruced, decorated, cool and composed, set for partying and play. Leo season marches in the door 23rd July with an invitation to be bold, daring, and a little wild. This is where the party REALLY starts! Clarity and a sense of having healed, grown, and felt changed by your summer experiences enters the room with the closing finale of Virgo season on August 23rd, taking us up to the start of Autumn. Ride the zodiac wheel all Summer long and use your taroscopes to get a heads up on what's coming your way. Your Summer Headline: Stop Fantasising, Start Manifesting: Aries, You're the Magician Now Who you're vibing with? The Magician Geminis and Virgos! People who are creative, inventive, ambitious, and going places. You want to be around folk who have good ideas and the high energy to pursue them and manifest them. Their good vibes rub off on you. Maybe you even start a side line or project together! Your Summer mission? Seven of Cups Stop daydreaming and start manifesting! You have AMAZING ideas and your fantasies are technicolour movies… why do you turn them off when you come back to ordinary reality? They could be blueprints of what the future looks like. Bring your ideas into real life. Magic moment? The Hanged Man A deep, soulful, late night conversation with a Pisces, or natural empath friend, unlocks a longstanding barrier or block in your spirit. You see things differently. You hear what they're saying and it changes you… for good. This is a breakthrough moment! Your Summer Headline: This Summer's Not About Comfort - It's About Becoming Who you're vibing with? The Fool Aquarius people who are progressive, refreshing, honest, and spontaneous. They enter your life out of the blue this Summer and rock your world! They have big ideas, wild plans, and want you to join them on some grand adventures… will you say yes?You must! Your Summer mission? The Chariot If I were making a 'mood board' for you, with The Chariot, then it'd be a map of the world with plenty of pins for you to chart wherever you most wish to go! This card is an invitation to travel. Whatever is feasible and what inspires you, NOW is the time to go seeking new horizons and experiences. Make it count. Magic moment? Nine of Coins You are offered a promotion, a course, an investment, a foundation to build on for the future- something that starts small but will build up over time into your next level chapter. You can see the growth potential and you're so grateful for the chance to do this. Jump right in! It starts here. Your Summer Headline: Gemini, You're Getting Enlightened—and a Little Bit Even Who you're vibing with? Six of Wands The Fire sign crew (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) are always pleased to see a Gemini because your Air element combusts with their Fire element and absolute transformation and power is unleashed. You are going to enjoy a 6-week fling / encounter / alliance with a Fire sign person and it will, although brief, change EVERYTHING! Your Summer mission? The Hierophant You want to get into a more spiritual way of life, to feel grounded in nature and uplifted by the Universe. Start a practice, seek a coach, find a circle, read up, listen well, try new rituals, journal your feelings and ideas and results. You are becoming a more enlightened version, the 2.0 is coming! Magic moment? Justice Hate to be petty but sometimes isn't it just DELICIOUS to see karma served up to someone who has wronged you in the past? Gemini, you are going to (secretly) really enjoy this turn of the tables. Justice is coming and you can't say they don't deserve it! Your Summer Headline: Cancer, Stop Explaining Yourself - Your People Are Already Looking for You Who you're vibing with? Seven of Cups Dare I say it but I think 'the one' is in sight? Or certainly, if you're already attached, the vision of love that you have LONG nurtured and hoped for. So, manifest your dream lover and love life. Bring your fantasies, ideas, and proposals to the table. Look out for a fellow dreamy Water sign- Pisces, Cancer or Scorpio. Your Summer mission? Page of Swords Find people who believe in your ideas and dreams! Stop wasting your energy by sharing your innermost hopes with folk who don't, and never will, 'get it'. Every rebuff is a blow you can't stand to take. Instead, look for the outliers, the rebels, the dreamers. Create a weird tribe who 'get' you and will back your dreams and encourage you. When you find that platform of support, you will SOAR! Magic moment? Three of Coins The most moving and deeply penetrating compliment or piece of feedback comes your way and melts your heart, you feel SEEN. And it won't end there. This person not only openly praises you but has an opportunity for you too, a golden one. Take it because you deserve it! Your Summer Headline: Silence, Solitude, and a Plot Twist: Leo, You're Evolving Who you're vibing with? Queen of Swords Leo, you are actually not being very Leo-y this Summer… but it suits you! The Queen of Swords shows you kinda' want time off, time alone, time to just be. That's not to say you're not socialising, dating, loving being out surrounded by friends and family, but you're also making space for solitude and quiet time. The change it makes will be dramatic and positive. You will wonder why you burned the candle at both ends for so long. Your Summer mission? Four of Swords This new 2.0. Leo is calm, composed, at peace, healing, and full of gratitude for every life lesson and challenge endured so far. This Summer feels like the peak, the pinnacle of a long journey. Just rest easy now. Celebrate the achievements, consolidate the learnings, and relax because you've had quite the 2025 already. Let this be a pivot point. Magic moment? Page of Coins As you're mulling and reflecting on the year so far, you are hit with the most interesting and inspiring insight into your true nature, real desire, and potential next level purpose! It all hits you in a powerful learning moment of clarity. You KNOW what you are going to do next. And no one/ nothing can stop you. Game on! Your Summer Headline: Power Moves, Soft Surprises, and a Wish Come True—Virgo, This Is Your Season Who you're vibing with? The Emperor An unusual love / friendship match with a bold, slightly bossy Aries is on the cards this Summer. Now this is one person you aren't expected to carry / fix / support / do everything for, so maybe this is your actual Summer break! A partner / friend who has their sh** together and actually wants to do things FOR YOU, for a change. Lap it up. Your Summer mission? Strength Remember how capable and strong you are. Remember how you have overcome and tackled every obstacle. Remember the journey, the achievements, the breakthroughs. You are ready for another challenge, another push towards something worthwhile. July is the KEY month for this mission. Set yourself a target, something that will develop you in a way you wish to grow. Magic moment? Nine of Cups A wish of yours comes true! Out of the blue, the cosmos grants you a heartfelt wish and it flies into your realm gift-wrapped and ready for you to enjoy. Everything happens really fast and things are in motion very swiftly, leaving you little time to process how amazing this really is! Your Summer Headline: Your Heart Opens, Your Purpose Sharpens—Libra, You're Ready for Real Who you're vibing with? Six of Swords You hook up with a fellow Air sign (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) who is travelling or on the move in some respect, perhaps they are new in your workplace / area / block / social circle. They have been places, seen things, and done stuff which intrigues you and their story kinda' makes you feel like making your own moves too! Your Summer mission? Justice Justice is your sign's tarot card and represents your objective, analytical nature and appetite for balance, harmony, truth and fair outcomes. You are a walking, talking version of justice! So, what is pulling at your heart in and around this theme? A career change, a situation, a relationship, a charity opportunity, an activist cause? Find out and serve whatever it is that you want to correct or uphold. Magic moment? Ace of Cups Something new that you immediately fall in love with will enter your life this Summer! It could be a romance, a friendship, a creative role or idea, a new baby, or even a pet! This new entry to the realm of yours truly brings lasting true love and lights up your everyday! Your Summer Headline: Scorpio, You're Falling Fast, Feeling Deep, and Seeing the Signs Who you're vibing with? The Lovers DYK that Scorpio and Gemini is one of the naughtiest, most fun, and super smart pairings of the zodiac? You guys act like you're the cleverest, shrewdest people in the room and will take ANYONE or ANYTHING on. Sky's the limit. This is the relationship about to enter your life. Lord knows where it'll all end up because you two are also chaotic and can FALL OUT. But it's going to be fun anyway. Your Summer mission? King of Cups People look up to you. Always have. You are stoic, fearless, independent, and strong. The King of Cups shows your emotional intelligence and intuition about other people is on point and you can be such a source of counsel, wisdom, mercy, and compassion this Summer. Life is hard, folk are struggling. Lend them your ear. They will always be grateful. Magic moment? Three of Wands The most bizarre, amazing coincidence or serendipitous moment will unfold (probably in August), possibly linked to the number 3, and it will blow you away. It's a small world, there are strange things in it, omens are real! Follow your instincts and find the prize! Your Summer Headline: New Adventures, Wild Ideas, and a Path That's So You - Sag, Let's Go Who you're vibing with? Knight of Wands Ready to meet your cosmic twin? Whether this pairing brings love or friendship, it will certainly generate adventure and fun! You feel like you've known this person forever and you have so much in common. They are likely a fellow Fire sign- Aries, Leo, Sagittarius. One of you is going to have to be the 'sensible one', which is probably the only thing you're going to fall out over! Your Summer mission? The Star The Star is a powerful omen of manifesting and wish fulfilment. It stretches the imagination and makes new horizons and realms, that you thought were out of reach, possible. You can land something between now and next February that you never thought would be an option for you… but you CAN! Start now. Believe. Take a step. The Universe will bring you the next one. Magic moment? The Magician The best idea you've ever had will come to you! Out of the blue, like a rocket, with bells and whistles on! And, like The Magician, it will open up how you can use your unique skills and talent to craft a new way of making a living and earning recognition. It's all about to get very interesting! Your Summer Headline: You Did the Work - Now Here Comes the Magic. Capricorn, It's Your Time Who you're vibing with? King of Swords A collaborator, a business guru partner, an entrepreneurial wizard, an ally in all things career and money makes their way into your realm and you are LOVING this connection. It opens your mind, it opens doors, and you feel like you have (at last) someone who can match your intellect, ambition, AND hard work ethic. Anything is possible when you two get together. Your Summer mission? The Fool You are going to do something new, surprising, a bit radical, and off the radar of what folk expect from you! Travel, technology, or progressive causes may be involved… this is something you do purely for you, and which propels you forwards in an unexpected way. A plot twist moment awaits! I don't even think you will know what it is until it hits you… Magic moment? The Sun You stop and pause this Summer because you can't believe just how rich and rewarding you feel your life has become this year. OK, it's not all perfect, but you feel authentically wealthy and blessed in the things that truly matter- peace of mind, opportunity, love and fellowship. Life is good. Celebrate, Cap, you have earned every single drop of your success and good fortune. Your Summer Headline: The Wrecking Ball Was You All Along—And So Was the Empress Who you're vibing with? Temperance Someone who helps you feel safe, grounded, and secure is your go-to person this Summer, possibly a Sagittarius, certainly a person who is comfortable in their own skin and doesn't fly off the handle or act inconsistently. They are a soothing balm and let you be you, always. Your Summer mission? The Tower Collapse and deconstruct the things in your life that aren't working or are bringing you negativity. Be the wrecking ball, Aquarius! You are truthful and pure, you know what's right for you, and what's not. For too long you have lingered in places, or with people, who don't merit your energy. End these connections. Be bold. Clear the decks ready for a rebuild Autumn. Magic moment? The Empress Pure, soulful, deep and lasting true love is yours this Summer. If you have any hankerings for starting or growing your family (even a pet…), then this card is also a signal to do WHO you surround yourself with that really makes or breaks your pleasure in life, and you see this SO clearly this year. And you take the right steps. And it works. Your Summer Headline: From Harsh Truths to Heart-Open Joy - Pisces, Your Soul's About to Soar Who you're vibing with? Ten of Swords Hmmm… it's actually more about who you're NOT vibing with that defines your social and love life this Summer! Pisces, everyone loves you and you love everyone, you're always in demand. But, sometimes you let sour or toxic connections linger for too long. The scales will fall from your eyes this Summer and you'll end some, long overdue, poisonous bonds. Good. Your Summer mission? Two of Coins Be busy, be here there and everywhere, be the one who says YES to more you do, the more you find you CAN do. Abundance belongs to your sign, you deserve ALL the goodies, so have them, take them, revel in them. Make this Summer absolutely full to the brim of your favourite people, places, ad things. Magic moment? Ace of Swords A conversation will unfold that is perhaps a little edgy or tense, but it will yield a truth that is so moving and life-changing that the initial awkwardness or conflict is all worthwhile. So say your truths, speak your mind, and then listen actively and wholly to what comes back. You'll be amazed.

Ronald Ribman, 92, Dies; His Plays Mined the Absurdity of Existence
Two men are on the rooftop garden of a hospital in Manhattan. One is an Armenian grocer. He has cancer and a big mouth. The other is an art dealer, a self-loathing Holocaust survivor who also has cancer and is tired of his own voice. In between medical procedures, they bicker about the quagmire of the past. 'You came out a big winner,' the grocer says. 'Because I survived?' the art dealer says. 'It doesn't feel like a triumph.' 'That's because nothing we ever do feels like a triumph, because the mind's a piece of garbage,' the grocer replies. 'It's never happy with what we do for it. I once took my mind down to Barbados for two weeks, and you know what it said to me? 'You should have taken us to Jamaica!'' The verbal jousting took place in 'Cold Storage,' a 1977 play staged at the Lyceum Theater on Broadway and written by Ronald Ribman, a mordantly funny playwright whose frequently surreal works grappled with God's impatience, the past's invasion of the present and, as he once put it, 'a person's right to fail as a human being.' In 'Harry, Noon and Night,' a 1965 Off Broadway production set in postwar Munich, Dustin Hoffman played a gay Nazi with a hunchback who quarrels with his roommate, a disturbed American painter who believes a caterpillar gave him syphilis. 'The Journey of the Fifth Horse' (1966), also Off Broadway, was based in part on Ivan Turgenev's short story 'The Diary of a Superfluous Man,' and starred Mr. Hoffman as an editor at a publishing house who rejects a posthumous memoir by a 19th-century landowner who died friendless and broke. In 'The Poison Tree' (1973), inmates and guards battle over the moral high ground in prison. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
