PREVIOUS THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY

January 9 2012 to January 15 2012


Monday January 9
The Buck Starts Here

Our week begins with all the tension, turmoil and turbulence we have long learned to associate with a Full Moon. If you're trying to stick to a resolution, expect your smooth ride to success to feel more like a spell on a bucking bronco that could hurl you, at any moment into a pit of distraction and temptation! Hold tight if you can. And if you can't? Remember that in another couple of weeks, the Moon will have waned away, The Chinese New Year will be here and the cosmic climate will be much more conducive to self-discipline.

Tuesday January 10
Name That Neptune

Officially, the Moon is no longer full, but there's still a strong sense of passion in the air. Inner emotional tides are rising higher than usual. Try to be sensitive when talking to people about difficult matters - but don't fear that life now, is all about tiptoeing through a minefield. There's a glorious conjunction of Venus and Neptune happening now, soon after dark where the Sun has recently set. You'll need a telescope or a pair of binoculars and a very steady hand to actually see Neptune - but if you notice an intensification of your creative inspiration, that's why!

Wednesday January 11
Happy Birthday Dear Leader?

Over the weekend, I watched news reports about Kim Jong-un, the new 'Dear Leader' of North Korea. Most sources agree he was born January 8 - but conflicting reports suggest this could have been 1982, 83 or 84. In my experience, if someone deliberately adopts a birthday, the chart of that day becomes relevant, even if they were born at another time. So I'm happy to use a chart for January 8. But what year? I've tried charts for all three options. 1983 seems most likely to me. But if that's right, we'll hear a lot, soon, about his love life!

Thursday January 12

Dear Jonathan,
On Monday, you used the phrase 'bucking bronco' while writing about people trying to keep to their New Year resolutions. I found this offensive. Some organisers of rodeos use cruel techniques to ensure that the steeds keep throwing off their riders. I thought you were a vegan and would be aware of this. I have sent you some literature. Susan

Dear Susan,
When I used those words, I was thinking about a mechanical device, not an actual horse. I apologise for my insensitivity. I hereby assure you that no animals were harmed in the making of that comparison!


Friday January 13
Who, What, Where?

Hi Jonathan,
You laughingly say the discovery of the Higgs boson 'could explain everything'. But surely this pursuit is as valid as your own. Some people are looking for HOW, others for WHY. People looking for WHY are not interested in HOW, and people looking for HOW would never pretend their research could bring an answer to WHY. Inogen

Dear Jonathan,
What qualifies someone to be a prophet? If we can open ourselves to the universe perhaps any of us could make a prediction and have it come to pass? Ruth.

Dear Inogen and Ruth,
These are very fair points!


Saturday January 14
Your Week Ahead

Venus moves into a new sector of the sky this week, moving slowly towards a position from which she will oppose Mars. That should bring the end of some New Year's resolutions. Many got abandoned before the confetti was hoovered up! Others have had more staying power so far. But this week, the warhorse of your willpower may become a bit of a bucking bronco. Hang on tight. Next week will see you sitting more securely in the saddle - and, if you can only wait till the middle of next month, you'll be cantering comfortably.

Sunday January 15
Your Week Ahead - Love Focus

Venus moves into a new sector of the sky this week, moving slowly towards a position from which she will oppose Mars. That should bring the end of some New Year's resolutions. Many got abandoned before the confetti was hoovered up! Others have had more staying power so far. But this week, the warhorse of your willpower may become a bit of a bucking bronco. Hang on tight.
