PREVIOUS THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY

April 16 2012 to April 22 2012


Monday April 16
Potent Portant of Progress

Since late January, Mars has given the impression of moving backwards through the zodiac. To an astronomer, this is merely an optical illusion but to an astrologer, it's a potent portent. Mars, the power planet, governs stamina, determination and ambition. When it is retrograde many people find that aspects of their lives somehow lack direction and purpose. This weekend's return to 'direct motion' has potentially negative connotations too. Some tensions and passions may grow stronger. But for all who have been plugging away at a project, seeing little by way of success there's now a greater chance of progress.

Tuesday April 17
New Start

In early January, I explained that New Year is rarely the right time for a new start. There are many other dates which might be more suitable for dropping old habits. If you've been following your forecast since then, you will have already seen me point out such times. More good opportunities are due in the next few weeks. I'm particularly excited about the rare transit of Venus on June 6. But while Mars is just picking up momentum after a long retrograde phase, right now is a fine time for anyone who seeks to summon more self-discipline!

Wednesday April 18
Pyjama Games

My sister lived in a house with a clear view of the bathroom at the top of the stairs on the second floor. Often, she would see a man in his pyjama bottoms come out of that room, enter the bedroom and disappear. I told her I believed it was residual energy of a previous occupant. That man probably made that same trek every morning for who knows how many years and she was just sensitive enough to see that left-over energy. Julie

Dear Julie,
I reckon you're right. But how fortunate he wasn't just wearing the top!


Thursday April 19
Double Trouble?

Dear Jonathan,
I was unhappily married for 25 years. Fifteen years later I have someone who seems wonderful but have just found out he was born on the same day of the same year at the same time, 200 miles away. I find this chilling. Is there such a thing as cosmic twins? Are they going to be the same? If so, I should run. I'm scared. Jane

Dear Jane,
Yes, you can get cosmic twins. No, they aren't the same, just very similar in some ways. Don't run. Just go slowly with a mixture of hope and caution.


Friday April 20
Weekend on the Med

This weekend we find ourselves, once again, living through the Dark of the Moon. I'm a great believer in the Moon's ability to act as an intoxicant. Full moons make us all inclined to feel tipsy, which is why even a small drink, at such a time, can have a big effect. New moons are 'super-sobering.' That's why, under their influence, some crave a big binge and others just feel oddly raw and real. Yet mystics and psychics have long known that the best way to pass a New Moon weekend is in quiet contemplation and sensitive meditation.

Saturday April 21
Your Week Ahead

The Sun is now in Taurus. Mercury has moved into Aries - and later this week it joins forces with Uranus. All this points to a week that's good for innovation and experimentation. No matter what sign you belong to, you'll benefit from trying out new ideas, especially if the 'tried and tested' isn't really working for you at the moment. Be brave. Think differently. Look for solutions that might sound a little far-fetched but could, perhaps, just prove feasible. Then you can capture the fresh energy of this cosmic climate... and put it to work in your life.

Your Week Ahead - Love Focus
