Your Daily Horoscope by Madame Clairevoyant: October 28, 2025
Mars in passionate Scorpio could fire up your competitive spirit today — and with Jupiter in Cancer balancing things out, there’s relatively little risk that you’ll take things too far, accidentally step on others’ toes, or make bad judgment calls. The worst thing you could do right now is be overly cautious, too afraid of making the wrong move that you end up paralyzed. If you’re feeling ambitious — or even just a little restless — this is the perfect time to actually do something about it.
Aries Daily Horoscope
For the most part, you’re generous with your time and energy; if you see someone who needs your help, you give it without a second thought. You don’t stop to think about what they can do for you in return — you generally trust that things will all even out over time. Occasionally, though, you get the sneaking suspicion that you’re constantly giving more than you get back, that your friends are taking your generosity for granted. So today, don’t wait around for others to step in on their own — while they’re probably happy to help, you might just need to ask.
Taurus Daily Horoscope
It’s easy to convince yourself that there’s no point trying to persuade others or even to explain your thinking to them — especially if you imagine that everyone around you is just as stubborn as you are. But today, don’t be so quick to assume that people are unwilling to change their minds. Right now, people are probably more willing to listen than you think, and if you can make a good case for yourself, they might be surprisingly amenable to seeing things your way.
Gemini Daily Horoscope
You understand that some problems can’t be solved through brute force; you need to be smart about how you approach them. But it’s also possible to try so hard to be clever that you end up getting in your own way. Sometimes when you’re trying to find creative shortcuts and maximize your efficiency, you just make everything too complicated. Today, you’ll probably be most successful if you go about things in the most straightforward way possible. Don’t overthink it.
Cancer Daily Horoscope
You often try to avoid competition — not because you’re scared but because collaboration generally seems like a better use of your energy. Today, though, you may feel a bit more ambitious and a bit less interested in playing nice. You might worry that it’s selfish to do what you want, regardless of what anyone else thinks, but, really, it’s healthy to prioritize yourself on occasion. Especially if you’re the sort of person to put everyone else first, this is a good time to remind yourself that your success matters just as much as theirs.
Leo Daily Horoscope
It can be easy to get bent out of shape over the smallest things — lately, especially, everyone seems inconsiderate of your needs. Sometimes the answer is to tell others how you’ve been feeling. Today, however, the best thing you can do might be to remind yourself that some things aren’t really about you at all. Chances are your friends are doing their best, but they’re stretched too thin to give you everything you need. You might still need to have a serious conversation later on, but for now, it’ll feel better — for them and for you — if you try to be understanding.
Virgo Daily Horoscope
Part of you sees ambition as something unseemly — you imagine that it’s selfish and embarrassing to dream of a big and impressive life, to want to win. There seems to be so much more dignity in finding happiness in the simple things; you want to be the sort of person who can find satisfaction in the journey. But while it’s good to avoid getting greedy, remember today that not all ambition is bad. It’s normal to have desires, so stop trying to suppress all of yours.
Libra Daily Horoscope
Some people seem to be constantly jockeying for position, angling to be the most powerful person in the room — and you tend to find that irritating. You’re not interested in telling anyone else what to do; you’d rather use your social energy to connect with others, not boss them around. Today, though, remember that the people in your orbit probably respect and look up to you — and if nobody else seems able or willing to make decisions and take the lead, it might be time for you to step up.
Scorpio Daily Horoscope
In general, you try to act strategically. It feels wasteful to expend valuable energy on relationships that’ll never work out or projects that are doomed to fail, so you do your best to save it for the goals that seem likeliest to succeed. But today, remember that you can’t know for sure which efforts will pan out — sometimes the things that seem like safe bets end up falling flat, and the wild swings are the ones that end up paying off. So, for now, work toward the goals you truly care about, however far-fetched they seem.
Sagittarius Daily Horoscope
Your philosophy is that it’s generally better to err on the side of boldness than of caution; you’d rather regret making a mistake than letting an opportunity pass you by. Today, though, remember that there are exceptions to every rule, and sometimes when you don’t know what to do, it really is better to sit back and wait for clarity. If your gut is telling you to take action, trust it. But if you’re not sure either way, then there’s no reason to rush things.
Capricorn Daily Horoscope
You find it incredibly annoying when people go on and on about their good intentions — you’re less interested in what’s inside anyone’s heart than in what they actually do. Today, though, remember that while intentions aren’t everything, they still matter. This doesn’t mean that being well meaning will offset all of your mistakes — when you mess up, you’re still responsible for fixing it — but if you’re genuinely trying to do the right thing, people will notice and it’ll make a difference.
Aquarius Daily Horoscope
You aren’t generally the sort of person to waffle when it comes to important decisions — once you make up your mind, you stick to it. Lately, though, it’s possible that you’ve been going back and forth, struggling to feel truly confident about what to do. It might be that you’re facing an unusually complex issue. But it’s more likely that you know in your heart what you need to do; it’s just stressful or difficult or scary. Today, trust your instincts. If you know what the right course of action is, you might as well do it.
Pisces Daily Horoscope
Some people don’t do well when their plans unexpectedly change, but you tend to be good at thinking on your feet. That doesn’t necessarily mean that you enjoy the disruptions, just that you know how to adapt. Sometimes it hardly feels worth making your own plans when you know that you’ll just have to change them. But today, remember that you don’t always have to be on the back foot, constantly forced to adjust to other people’s plans. This could be a good time for you to take the initiative, to set your own ideas in motion.
