Your daily horoscope: April 22, 2025

HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

It’s not in your nature to take silly chances but others will encourage you to gamble over the coming year. The odds may be strongly in your favour but why risk it when what you want most from life is coming to you for free?

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

There is no point making threats unless you intend to carry them out and the simple fact is you don’t. The only way you are going to get others to do the right thing is to show them that it benefits them as well – so make sure it does.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

This could be one of those days when sensitive topics are best avoided. The only trouble is there are so many sensitive topics at the moment that you may end up saying nothing at all – but at least you will be able to enjoy a peaceful day!

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

The message of the stars today is that if you change things for the sake of it you will have to change them back again at a later date, which means you will have consumed twice the time and effort for no gain at all. Just let it be.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

If you think in a positive way over the next 24 hours then positive things are sure to occur. However, don’t get so carried away with dreams and schemes that you think up something that has zero chance of coming true. You’ve got to be sensible.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

The decisions you make over the next few days could set you up for a major breakthrough early next month, or they could set you up for the kind of fall that is painful to your ego. Make them good decisions but make them logical too.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

You may be hoping that a problem of some sort will eventually go away of its own accord but the planets indicate that isn’t going to happen, so get your head around the kind of decisions you need to be taking – and then start taking them!

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

The sun’s position in one of the more sensitive areas of your chart means this could be a confusing sort of day. You must – repeat, must – keep your wits about you when dealing with financial matters. There could be a great deal of money at stake.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

Affairs of the heart will go well for you over the next few weeks but they could go even better if you learnt not to be quite so demanding. Very few people can match your high standards, especially when it comes to passion.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

What seems trivial to you may be of huge importance to a friend or a family member, so try to avoid making comments that might upset them. Some people can be ridiculously touchy but that does not mean you have a right to be uncaring.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

The sun’s journey through the most dynamic area of your chart over the next few weeks will inspire you to raise your game and make the so-called impossible look easy. Your laidback yet effective approach to life will win round a new set of admirers.

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

What seems good to you will seem bad to someone else today, and vice-versa. You are both correct because you have different ways of looking at the situation. You need to get past the idea that there can only ever be one answer to a problem.
