PREVIOUS THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY

January 24 2011 to January 30 2011


Monday January 24

Dear Jonathan,
Is it possible that some people are just not compatible with electronic devices and equipment? Some days, every piece of equipment I touch seems to go haywire for no reason. I wonder if it has something to do with me or the stars? I know some people have a healing touch. Perhaps I've got the reverse? Sandie

Dear Sandie,
Does it happen more when you feel anxious, angry or frustrated? You're far from alone! It is connected to astrology, only in so far as a 'difficult transit' to our horoscope may be contributing to your bad mood.


Tuesday January 25

Ever since that story about the 'thirteenth sign' came rolling round last week, I've been trying not to feel old. I recall the last time an astronomer with an axe to grind planted a similar piece in the press, back in the Nineties. And before, in the Eighties. The explanation hasn't changed. The constellations (or star groups) have the same names as the zodiac signs but they are not interchangeable. That's confusing, I concede, but it's completely deliberate. It's why conscientious astrologers speak of sun-signs, not star-signs. And why I call this column your zodiac forecast, not 'your stars'.

Blind Dates

Dear Jonathan,
Back on 11.1.11 you were dismissive of the date's significance. You said, 'More exciting is today's harmonious alignment from the Sun to Neptune.' Don't you see a connection? Lea

Dear Lea,
I think you are suggesting that the alignment might be happening simply because the date is so auspicious. But planets follow orbits which are so precise and predictable that I can tell you, today, exactly when the Sun and Neptune will align in the year 4000! What's less predictable is whether, in 4000, we'll still be using the same calendar that's now causing so much excitement.

Are Friends Electric?

Jon,
Like Sandie, whose letter you published recently, my friend brings a different energy into my house when he arrives. Last week a light bulb blew shortly after he turned up. Today another bulb blew shortly after he came through the door, this time blowing the fuse in the fuse box and putting all the lights out. Is that just coincidence? I personaly believe that electronic devices fair better with people who put out positive energy. Duncan

Dear Duncan,
I agree. Although I have also known light bulbs pop and computers fail around people who are almost ecstatically happy!

Bored Games

Dear Jonathan,
The first I heard of the thirteenth sign and the need to change the dates of the other signs was when I read your explanation of why it's a nonsense. I find it amusing that the story originated from astronomers in my home state of Minnesota. At long last, some excitement here in the Northern Plains... and I missed it! All I can tell you is that our winters are long and cold and we have had two winter's worth of snow already. People do all kinds of strange things here when they become seriously bored.

Saturday January 29
Your February Monthly Forecast

Valentine's day, this year, falls on a Monday. There's an ideal excuse to turn the whole preceding weekend into a festival of romantic gestures. Regardless of the downturn, there'll be an upturn for various cosy little restaurants and getaway hotels. Florists, chocolatiers, jewellers and candlemakers should do well. There has long been an unspoken yet undeniable connection between wealth and romance. In astrology, it is reflected by the planet Venus, which governs both love and luxury. Venus, this month, is in Capricorn, sign of 'pragmatism'. February may be easier on the heart and the purse, than many now expect.
