Tarot Horoscope Today, 28th May 2025: Daily Tarot Card Predictions - Silent Resets, Emotional Realizations, and Karmic Clean-ups Unfold
Not every turning point arrives with noise—some walk in with silence. Today's tarot brings that kind of shift. A karmic balancing is underway, and for many signs, this means dealing with choices made in the past or the emotional residue they've left behind. Whether it's about love, career, family, or inner healing, the energy is pushing for one thing—alignment. You'll feel called to pause, reflect, and act with honesty. Aries – Daily Tarot ReadingCards: The Hermit, Two of Swords, Ace of Cups (Reversed)You've been turning inward for some time, searching for a sense of inner peace. But today, indecision will start to feel unbearable. Something emotional—possibly around love or a personal connection—you've kept tucked away now rises to the surface. The Ace of Cups reversed suggests emotional blockages, perhaps tears that haven't been shed or love that hasn't been spoken. The truth? You already know the answer; you're just afraid of the emotional weight it carries. But relief lies in facing it. Lucky Color: Pearl white Lucky Number: 2 Power Tip: Let silence speak. The answers you seek aren't outside—they're already within. Taurus – Daily Tarot ReadingCards: Eight of Pentacles, Ten of Swords (Reversed), The SunYou've been putting in the emotional labor. Even in pain, you've worked on healing yourself and rebuilding trust—both in others and in life. Today marks a pivotal shift: the heaviness begins to lift. The Sun illuminates the darker corners you've bravely walked through. Joy is returning—not the loud, overwhelming kind, but a gentle warmth reminding you that peace is possible. You've earned this moment. Lucky Color: Amber Lucky Number: 1 Power Tip: Don't minimize your recovery. Progress doesn't always shout—it often whispers. Gemini – Daily Tarot ReadingCards: The Fool (Reversed), Queen of Cups, Seven of CupsYou may have taken a risk recently—one that felt spontaneous, but now leaves you second-guessing. The Fool reversed shows a lesson learned the hard way, while the Queen of Cups urges you to reconnect with your emotional intuition. Be wary of getting distracted today. The Seven of Cups suggests that fantasy, escapism, or too many choices could cloud your thinking. Anchor yourself in emotional truth. Lucky Color: Soft lavender Lucky Number: 7 Power Tip: When you're unsure, sit with the discomfort. Clarity follows stillness. Cancer – Daily Tarot ReadingCards: Six of Cups, Knight of Pentacles, The Tower (Reversed)You've been reminiscing, holding onto memories that brought comfort—but also stagnation. The Knight of Pentacles shows you're building a life slowly and steadily. But The Tower reversed indicates a truth has been avoided—a shake-up long overdue. Something in your foundation is shifting. You can delay it no longer. Address it now, while it's whispering. If ignored, it may scream. Lucky Color: Ocean blue Lucky Number: 4 Power Tip: Let go of the illusion of control. The real safety is in surrender. Leo – Daily Tarot ReadingCards: The Emperor, Justice (Reversed), The Star (Reversed)You've led from the front, tried to stay strong, and upheld what you believed to be right. But the Justice card reversed reveals something out of alignment—an emotional truth, a mistake not acknowledged, or a lack of fairness in a close relationship. The Star reversed suggests hope feels distant. It's not gone—it's waiting for you to realign with your core values. Be brave enough to admit where something needs to shift. Lucky Color: Charcoal grey Lucky Number: 8 Power Tip: Let integrity lead, even when it's uncomfortable. Healing follows honesty. Virgo – Daily Tarot ReadingCards: The Moon, Nine of Swords (Reversed), Three of PentaclesYour internal world has been a web of overthinking, fears, and unspoken emotions. But today offers release. The Nine of Swords reversed shows that the worst is passing, and The Moon urges you to trust your intuition even if the path seems foggy. With the Three of Pentacles, emotional collaboration is key. Let others in. You don't have to figure everything out alone. Lucky Color: Olive green Lucky Number: 6 Power Tip: Vulnerability is not weakness. It is a silent invitation for help—and healing. Libra – Daily Tarot ReadingCards: Two of Cups, Four of Swords, Knight of Swords (Reversed)A recent connection has stirred deep emotions. But now, you feel the need to pause, reflect, and step away from the emotional intensity. The Four of Swords is your body's request for peace. The Knight of Swords reversed cautions against acting on impulse right now. Let your mind rest. Let your emotions settle. The clarity you're craving will return—but only after rest. Lucky Color: Pale rose Lucky Number: 3 Power Tip: Rest is not indulgent. It's your nervous system's deepest form of clarity. Scorpio – Daily Tarot ReadingCards: Death, Ace of Pentacles, The MagicianSomething within you has completed its cycle. A version of you—an old habit, identity, or relationship—has ended. This isn't loss. This is transformation. The Ace of Pentacles shows a new seed is being planted—perhaps in career, creativity, or even love. With The Magician, your potential is now fully in your hands. This is your time to create. Lucky Color: Burgundy Lucky Number: 9 Power Tip: Don't wait for the world to validate you. Act as if you already are who you're becoming. Sagittarius – Daily Tarot ReadingCards: The Hanged Man (Reversed), Five of Cups, The LoversYou've waited, sacrificed, paused—but the pain of a lost opportunity or emotional disappointment still lingers. Today asks you to face that grief fully. Don't rush it away. Tomorrow, The Lovers promises alignment—a meaningful decision or relationship that brings new purpose. But today is for honoring what you lost without judgment. Lucky Color: Indigo Lucky Number: 5 Power Tip: To choose well, first release what was never truly yours. Capricorn – Daily Tarot ReadingCards: Queen of Pentacles, Page of Cups (Reversed), King of SwordsYou've held your world together—caring for others, holding responsibilities, staying grounded. But emotionally, you've run dry. The Page of Cups reversed shows blocked creativity or inner child wounds. The King of Swords advises clarity: take decisions now not from hurt, but from calm intelligence. Let the heart speak, but let the mind filter. Lucky Color: Mocha brown Lucky Number: 1 Power Tip: Lead with logic, but consult your feelings—they offer more than you think. Aquarius – Daily Tarot ReadingCards: Nine of Cups, The Devil, JudgmentYou've had some wins, perhaps even indulgences. But today, you confront what lies beneath the surface—a toxic pattern, addictive thought, or unhealthy bond. The Devil confronts you with your own shadow. But Judgment gives you a way out. This is a karmic checkpoint. Will you stay chained or rise? Lucky Color: Teal Lucky Number: 11 Power Tip: Every ending carries a question: who are you without what once defined you? Pisces – Daily Tarot ReadingCards: Page of Swords, Five of Wands, Ten of CupsYou have been on high alert, scrutinizing all around you. It is wearisome. Today brings inner or outer conflict; the Five of Wands points to stress. Still, don't panic. The Ten of Cups suggests future emotional satisfaction. Peace, family, and love are not far. You just need to focus on what really matters and ignore the surrounding sound. Lucky Color: Coral pink Lucky Number: 6 Power Tip: Harmony doesn't mean perfection. It means making peace with what is. Crafted with care by the expert astrologers at today's reading is more than just prediction—it's a soulful reflection. Come back daily, and let the cards mirror the wisdom already within you.

ITV Says Studios Arm Will Grow 'Faster Than The Global Content Market' This Year Amid Sale Speculation & Q1 Results
ITV Studios will grow 'faster than the global content market' this year, ITV has said, although turnover in the production-distribution arm remained virtually flat during the first quarter of this year. Delivering a trading update in the week that Deadline dove deep into a potential ITV sale, the 70-year-old British outfit said revenue, profit and margin will be weighted to the second half of this year 'due to the timing of cost savings and high-margin deliveries.' ITV Studios' full-year margin will be lower than 2024, it added, which 'reflects the change in sales mix as the market recovers following the U.S. strikes.' More from Deadline ProSiebenSat.1 Media Sees Q1 Profits Dive 39% As "Very Cyclically Sensitive" TV Ad Market Bites Fremantle's Q1 Revenue Drops 5.6% Due To "Budget Cuts" At Networks & Streamers Suranne Jones & Jodie Whittaker ITV Drama 'Frauds' Adds Talisa Garcia, Karan Gill, Elizabeth Berrington & Christian Cooke ITV Studios' revenue rose by just 1% for the three months to March 31 like-for-like to hit £386M ($512B). Notably, 'external revenue,' the amount it makes from global buyers, shot up by 20%, while it was hit by a 26% drop in 'internal revenue' impacted by Saturday Night Takeaway and drama series The Tower not returning. Global wins included Netflix's Squid Game: The Challenge, which is co-produced by ITV Studios-owned The Garden. ITV Studios delivered record profits for full year 2024. Overall, ITV posted quarterly revenue of £875M, a decline of just 1% on the prior year's first quarter. Revs in its media and entertainment division were down 3% to £489M. 'ITV Studios returned to growth following the impact of the US strikes and is on course to achieve good growth in total revenue over the full year, weighted towards H2 as previously guided,' said CEO Carolyn McCall. 'While the macroeconomic environment is uncertain, we remain confident that our strategic initiatives, our focus on financial and cost discipline and our diversified revenue and customer base will enable us to successfully navigate an evolving market landscape and deliver long-term value to our shareholders.' ITV is currently the subject of fevered sale speculation and the sale of ITV Studios as a separate entity is one possible option being floated. At the network's AGM earlier this week, Chairman Andrew Cosslett faced difficult questions over its stubborn 77p share price, which dipped slightly today, with one investor demanding to know when the figure will rise. 'If someone approaches with an offer we have to take interest and it's very clear from the room that there are lots of people interested in getting the share price up,' said Cosslett on Tuesday. RedBird IMI and Banijay are both reported to be interested in ITV.
