On Thursday, 10th July 2025, Madrid experiences sunny weather under a waning crescent moon, with the sun positioned in Cancer. The Spanish capital sits on the Meseta Central plateau in central Spain and serves as the nation's largest city and cultural hub. Those born on this date fall under the Cancer zodiac sign, which extends from late June through mid-July.

Two significant events marked this date in recent history. In 2011, the British tabloid News of the World published its final edition, closing amid serious allegations of phone hacking involving victims of major crimes including the murdered schoolgirl Milly Dowler and relatives of soldiers lost in action. That same year, the Russian river cruise liner Bulgaria sank in the Volga River during a storm in Tatarstan, resulting in 122 deaths. Earlier, in 2018, rescue operations concluded when the last members of a junior football team and their coach were successfully extracted from the flooded Tham Luang Nang Non cave in northern Thailand, concluding a complex international rescue effort.

The date also marks the birth of notable figures throughout history. Meher Baba, an Indian mystic and spiritual teacher, began his distinctive silence on this day in 1925, a period that would continue until his death in 1969 during which he communicated exclusively through an alphabet board or hand gestures.
