PREVIOUS THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY October 2 2017 to October 8 2017 Monday October 2 All Together Now! More Sally Fisher Art here. Cows moo, sheep bleat and roosters crow. Some things are incontrovertible. I mention this because the weekend planetary activity was textbook stuff. Mercury entered Libra, asking us to consider all sides of a story, Mars aligned harmoniously with Pluto, encouraging us to explore deepest desires, and Venus opposed Neptune, demanding that our hearts seek love. All together, that's one heck of a din! Don't be surprised if you hear echoes of this activity throughout the week. Tuesday October 3 Tunnel Vision More Sally Fisher Art here. Today, the Sun makes an innovative, ingenious alignment. Too bad it's with difficult and restricting Saturn, right? Actually, although this planet has a dour reputation, there are many situations where its presence is not only positive, but advantageous. Today, it calls us to look again at something that seems to be too tricky to pull off. Doorways that appeared locked may now open. And this isn't the only alignment that provides a key. Today's Venus-Pluto link can help us to feel the way forward through the darkest of tunnels. Wednesday October 4 Solar Return More Sally Fisher Art here. There are no new planetary aspects to report today, although there's plenty to look forward to tomorrow. That's when the Full Moon arrives in Aries, opposite Mercury, and the relationship planets, Venus and Mars, form a conjunction. But let's talk about that when it happens. Right now I'm concentrating on a very specific astrological event - my own solar return! I'm spending my birthday in Italy, with my wife and son. It's a perfect day to focus on personal relationships. Thursday October 5 Full Moon More Sally Fisher Art here. The Full Moon arrives in Aries, opposite Mercury, while Mars and Venus converge today. But it's the conjunction of harmonious Venus and passionate Mars that demands our attention. This event occurs every couple of years, and it always has an impact on relationships. It's one of those moments when self-assertion and co-operation can work hand in hand. Highlighted by the powerful Full Moon, it suggests that an important understanding can be reached. Let's hope it affects those in positions of power, as well as us. Friday October 6 Vision of the Future More Sally Fisher Art here. Uranus and Neptune, enter a tense, yet exciting relationship this weekend. It's the second in a series of four hits that this unusual alignment creates. The first, back in August, suggested a time of confusion and surprise, but also visionary change. But, with Venus also linking to Saturn, the inevitable upheaval was unsettling, and hard to accept. Now, as the Sun and Mercury converge, the wisdom needed to enable us to take proactive steps will bring us to both a new understanding, and a new vision of the future. Saturday October 7 Your Week Ahead More Sally Fisher Art here. As Jupiter enters Scorpio, we venture into unknown territory. Well, not exactly. Jupiter began its last journey through Scorpio back in 2005, so most of us will at least recognise the feeling evoked by this event. Scorpio is the sign of mystery and secrets. So, with Jupiter's exploratory nature, we may be tempted to stray from the safety of life's yellow brick road. But there's no need to worry. There'll be no wicked witches, or flying monkeys to contend with! And Saturn's influence will keep us on the straight and narrow. Sunday October 8 Your Week Ahead - Love Focus More Sally Fisher Art here. Remember, your Love Forecast today does not just cover romance.
