Horoscope Today 19 July, 2025: Capricorn, Pisces and other sun signs

Horoscope Today 19 July, 2025: Today's key sign is Libra – so if you're a Libran, count yourself lucky. Actually Libra is one of my favourite signs. At its best it is warm, sensual, hospitable, creative, loving, stable, loyal and efficient. It's also artistic and imaginative. It can be lazy and obstinate as well, but let's not think about that! The Sun and Moon are combining to lift your spirits. In fact, today's planetary indications are distinctly optimistic, and you should be aware that the more confident you are that you are on the right track, the more likely you will be to find success in your own way. If there's the slightest hint of a domestic crisis today, then be sure to talk about any likely causes of discontent before things get out of hand. It's up to you to make your views known first. The point is that what is difficult for others, might be easy for you. This is an excellent day for all involved in the property market or planning domestic improvements, even if there is a chance that you'll over-reach yourself. Combine a sense of vision in the future with a dose of good old down-to-earth common sense. Three planets gather in sensitive regions of your chart today, from where they will challenge you to surpass yourself in every area of your life. Specifically, though, their combined result will be to put your relationships under the spotlight more than ever. You were born under an independent sign, and sometimes you don't notice your individualistic behaviour. Close friends, on the other hand, can be highly perplexed when your moods seem to change without warning, so please do try to make yourself understood. It's unlikely that you'll have much time to yourself, probably because of the arrangements you're committed to organising or fulfilling. It will pay to make the most of your resources and not be distracted by well-meaning friends. It will also do you good to make pleasure one of your guiding principles. As the weekend is here, domestic responsibilities will be calling, but the awareness that you're on the edge of a financial, professional or personal breakthrough will lead you in other directions. Arrange your time carefully, or you'll go down a blind alley – or two! For some strange reason, opportunities may slip through your hands. Perhaps it's just that they're moving too fast. Or perhaps it's that you're not concentrating. The current period may not yet be right for the success that is undoubtedly due to you, so why not bide your time for a week or two. You are by nature a sociable creature but right now you need to be pursuing certain goals by yourself. It also seems likely that if you discuss your plans with too many people they may offer you conflicting or confusing advice. It's up to you to sort the deeply useful from the totally useless! An amazing total of six planets is now directly involved in your love life and relationships, which could mean that emotionally you're spoiled for choice. It's time for you to initiate social contacts rather than waiting for others to take the lead. At times like these business and pleasure merge, with the result that work can be rather enjoyable but domestic life can become just a little too hectic. Fortunately you've got what it takes to find a happy medium. And that's precisely what you must do! Scarcely a moment passes when you don't have something to organise or some little task to complete. Yet this weekend, more than ever, you should broaden your horizons and look to the long-term future. It's not old friends who matter so much as new acquaintances, people you are only now coming to know.

Shocking footage shows city streets submerged after devastating natural disaster: 'The earth is mad'

Heavy rainfall in Brazil earlier this month resulted in extreme flooding and a destructive landslide, displacing close to 400 people as well as animals. As detailed by ReliefWeb, the southeastern municipalities of Petrópolis, Angra dos Reis, and São Paulo were left reeling after downpours in early April caused flooding that triggered a landslide, destroying homes and displacing residents. Nearly 12 inches of rainfall within 24 hours in Petrópolis, Brazil triggered a massive waterfall-like flood byu/New_Libran inTerrifyingAsFuck A video was posted to the r/TerrifyingAsF*** subreddit that seemed to show a portion of these events, with floodwaters that looked more like a waterfall following "nearly 12 inches of rainfall within 24 hours in Petrópolis." A CNN video also showed multiple cows swept away by rushing waters. A state of emergency was declared on April 5. A "massive" landslide occurred the following day. According to ReliefWeb, at least 380 people were being sheltered as of April 6 in Angra dos Reis after being forced from their homes. This early April flooding event is just the latest in Brazil, which has seen multiple rounds of torrential downpours since the start of the rainy season. In January, heavy rainfall prompted landslides that killed "at least 10 people … in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais," also in the Southeast region of the country, per the BBC. The Northwest region experienced heavy rains, flooding, and landslides in March, resulting in injuries, displacements, property damage, and power outages, according to an earlier report from ReliefWeb. Intensifying rains, floods, and landslides come amid a range of extreme weather events in the country. A São Paulo-based journalist reported for DevelopmentAid this month that the "annual number of [climate-related catastrophes] has almost doubled since 2020 compared to the two previous decades, according to a new study by the Brazilian Alliance for Ocean Culture, supported by the Brazilian government and UNESCO." The escalating threats have brought significant financial burdens to the state, individuals, and families. The BBC reported that the "city's health centre was also damaged by the [January] landslides" — an example of the impacts on critical infrastructure that can cost money and, most importantly, lives.

The situation in Brazil is heartbreaking but not exactly unique. Rising temperatures caused by heat-trapping pollution in our atmosphere are driving more frequent and more severe disasters like floods, storms, and more all over the world. As one Redditor commented on the video of the waterfall-like floods, "The earth is mad." The BBC noted that "neighbourhoods precariously built on steep hillsides [are] the worst hit" by landslides. More support for climate-conscious building development and urban planning could help improve safety for residents. In late 2024, the United Nations Office for Project Services announced "a new partnership with the government of Brazil … [that] will help strengthen the country's resilience to climate-induced disasters." The project prioritizes support for these precariously constructed communities and will provide "technical assistance to develop prevention and response plans in cities particularly vulnerable to landslides, flash floods and flooding." Scientists in São Paulo are also working to improve our ability to predict landslide risk using high-resolution images. According to PreventionWeb, "the new methodology [is expected to] be ready by the end of 2025, so that policymakers and planners can use it to map landslide-prone areas … more comprehensively." But you don't have to be based in Brazil to help reduce the risks of life-threatening floods and landslides. Exploring opportunities to get involved is a good start. You can also consider switching to sustainable energy sources like solar, making your next vehicle an electric model, and voting for pro-climate candidates who can affect policies and investments in infrastructure to mitigate the impacts of extreme weather.
