Today's tarot card for Aries: Knight of Cups, reversed
Aries, you have to accept that some people can't process their own emotions due to a variety of reasons. You may wish that a person would act a certain way or be a person you thought they were.
But, the Knight of Cups, reversed, is saying it might be beyond their capacity right now. Some people mature at a slower pace than others. Can you wait for that miracle to happen? The next question is, what will you do if it doesn't?
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)

Today's tarot card for Taurus: Two of Wands
What is your game plan, Taurus? You have a lot of things you want to accomplish in life beyond work, don't you? You can hope that it will happen organically or choose to plot a path and ensure that it does. Goals written down have a greater chance of succeeding. What do you need to put down on paper today?
The Two of Wands is a decision-making tarot card, indicating that it's time to take action. If actions speak louder than words, what will your voice say about you today?
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)

Today's tarot card for Gemini: The Hanged Man, reversed
As much as you are called the shape-shifter, there's a more rigid side of you that comes out today. The Hanged Man, reversed, is a tarot card that typically shows up when you are at a standstill in your life. You may feel like you are stagnating, and a part of you may also prefer it that way.
Life does not always have to include change. There can be something peaceful in the familiar, and change may be off the agenda today as you allow yourself to settle into what you know.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)

Today's tarot card for Cancer: Ten of Cups, reversed
Today, a rift may develop between you and a loved one, Cancer. Perhaps you talk about politics and need to agree to disagree. Or perhaps you will discover that you are less compatible with close family members than you would be if you gave each other a little bit of space.
The Ten of Cups, reversed, invites you to choose a less strife-filled path. Instead of arguing or being upset that your situation isn't running as smoothly, go with the flow.
Leo (July 23 - August 22)

Today's tarot card for Leo: The Emperor, reversed
There is a cure for a lack of discipline in any area of your life where you feel like you could self-improve. Like The Emperor, reversed, you may be strong and know you are capable of great things, but fall short for one reason or another at times.
Rather than create more excuses or set your start date back again to begin later, try to be more determined today. You might be surprised at how one small decision not to quit or give up on July 4 can be the first of many more small successes.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22)

Do you feel like a little more money would make your life easier? The King of Pentacles may imply a deep desire you have for material and financial success.

Today's tarot card for Pisces: Eight of Cups, reversed
Pisces, it's hard to let go of something or someone you once loved. That's why, on July 4, 2025, you may be thinking of an ex with whom you had a close relationship. Thinking about someone from the past can be confusing.
You may wonder if you still care for them. The feelings you need to process can be helpful when you decide to address any unfinished business that holds you back and prevents you from fully moving on.
