Your daily horoscope: June 5, 2025
Jupiter in your sign links with Venus on your birthday, which means you will accomplish more over the coming year when you strive to work with people rather than against them. A pleasant and productive daily environment is a must for success. You have always been a leader rather than a follower and that's a good thing, but the planets warn you need to tone down your tendency to rush into situations you know little about. It could be a rival has set up a trap for you. Are you Nice or are you Nasty? No doubt you are a bit of both but you will need to come down hard on someone today who has been taking liberties. Then, when Venus moves into your sign tomorrow, you can be Nice again. The best way to deal with a rival is to look for areas where the two of you can agree and maybe even work together. By focusing on what brings you together rather than on what keeps you apart your rivalry won't be such a problem. Most likely you will clash with someone in a position of authority today but under no circumstances can you afford to back down. If you show even a hint of weakness they will be on your case constantly over the next few days. Mars in your sign makes you hugely ambitious but as Venus, planet of harmony, is about to enter the career area of your chart you will move up more quickly if you make friends rather than enemies. It's not you against the world! If a friend gets into a spot of bother today by all means help them out, but make sure they know this is going to be a one-off event and if they make the same mistake again you won't be there to rescue them next time. If you insist on being different then you must allow other people to be different as well. That will, of course, mean having to accept that when they do something you do not approve of you let it go, so long as it doesn't harm you personally. The message of the stars today, and for tomorrow and the weekend, is that if you want to get important things done you must join forces with people whose aims are not a million miles from your own. Together you can do wonderful things. Anyone who thinks you are so easygoing that they can take advantage of you is making a big mistake. You are in one of those moods where you will forgive and forget only up to a certain point – after that they had better watch out! Stop worrying about things that are not worth the effort. Life is good and about to get many times better, so ignore the one or two little things that have gone wrong of late and get ready for something really big to go right. You won't be short of opinions and you won't by shy about pointing out where other people's thinking is completely messed up. You rarely suffer fools and the clowns you have to deal with over the next 24 hours will get no leeway at all. A work-related problem can be easily resolved by making an effort to see it through the eyes of someone who disagrees with you. You're not actually that far apart in your outlook, so come up with a creative solution that satisfies you both. Discover more about yourself at

EXCLUSIVE America's worst neighbor revealed in nauseating photos that will strike fear into the heart of suburbia
He's racked up a staggering $5.5million in county fines for a 'junkyard' home that one exasperated neighbor tells the Daily Mail 'should be burned to the ground'. But defiant Alan Davis, who served nearly five years behind bars for what he claims is his stand against authority, shows no sign of backing down in his quest to keep finessing an epic eyesore in the midst of a quiet middle class Florida street.

‘My Father Told Me...': RFK Jr. Makes Wild Warning Undermining Expert Health Advice
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Thursday said assessing health guidance is similar to researching baby strollers as a new mom, urging Americans to 'be skeptical of authority' while serving in a top Cabinet position. CNN's Kaitlan Collins asked Kennedy if he stood by his earlier comment that people should not be taking medical advice from him, even though his job involves communicating health guidance and recommendations based on his department's expertise. 'Yeah, absolutely,' Kennedy said. 'I'm somebody who is not a physician... and they should also be skeptical about any medical advice. They need to do their own research.' Kennedy added that when 'you're a mom, you do your own research on your baby carriage, on your baby bottles, on your baby formula,' suggesting a similar approach should be taken when assessing medical advice. When Collins pointed out that most mothers do not have medical degrees and would rather rely on their physicians, Kennedy claimed that health experts in a democracy 'are subject to all kinds of biases.' 'One of the responsibilities of living in a democracy is to do your own research and to make up your own mind,' he added. Kennedy also recalled a piece of advice from his father, suggesting it was relevant to their discussion. 'I would say, be skeptical of authority. My father told me that when I was a young kid, people in authority lie,' Kennedy said, baselessly claiming that 'critical thinking was shut down' during the COVID-19 pandemic. Kennedy, a prominent vaccine skeptic, was nominated to serve in one of the country's top jobs by President Donald Trump, raising eyebrows during a House subcommittee hearing last week with his answer to a question about whether he would vaccinate his children against measles if they were still young. 'I don't think people should be taking advice, medical advice from me,' he said. 'I think if I answer that question directly that it will seem like I'm giving advice to other people, and I don't want to be doing that,' he continued. Kennedy, though, has not held back from lending credence to debunked conspiracy theories, including falsely suggesting that vaccines are linked to autism. While his Making America Healthy Again report, released on Thursday, did not touch on that specific claim, it still hinted that the growth of the immunization schedule for children may be detrimental to them, even though childhood vaccination saves millions of lives every year. 'Vaccines benefit children by protecting them from infectious diseases. But as with any medicine, vaccines can have side effects that must be balanced against their benefits,' the report reads. 'Parents should be fully informed of the benefits and risks of vaccines.'

How to get an A at TSA
There is something about going through airport security that brings out our inner teacher's pet. Maybe it's not wanting to be scolded by an authority figure in front of our peers. Or perhaps it's wanting to prove this isn't our first rodeo. Or could it be some survival-of-the-fittest instincts telling us to win an imaginary competition against our fellow travelers?
