PREVIOUS THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY December 25 2017 to December 31 2017 Monday December 25 Merry Christmas! More Sally Fisher Art here. Astrologers are a bit like petrol station attendants today; here to fill you up with the energy you need to get you through the festivities! But you won't unwrap your presents to find only windscreen fluid, scratch cards or last-minute purchases. Mercury turned direct over the weekend, just in time to bring order to the chaos. And Venus changes signs today and converges with Saturn. It all suggests that the emotional gifts you'll receive today will last well beyond the festive season. Tuesday December 26 Little Boxes More Sally Fisher Art here. In the UK, and other countries that share its Victorian heritage, today is Boxing Day. The name derives from 'Christmas Boxes' given to workers for faithful service, and also from boxes containing alms for the poor. Whether you're working or not today, yesterday's Venus-Saturn conjunction encourages us to take matters of the heart seriously, and be cautious when considering anything expensive - either emotional or financial. It will be pleasantly surprising to discover what can be eked out today. Wednesday December 27 Pea Souper? More Sally Fisher Art here. Dear Oscar, My husband's a Piscean and I'm a Libran. Neither of us know what our best next step is. Are we stuck? Will we end up foggy-brained non-achievers? Esra Dear Esra, Libra is a 'cardinal' sign while Pisces is 'mutable'. So although you struggle to label your relationship dynamic, the modality of your combined signs suggests that intransigence is not the issue. Cardinals like starting things, and mutables move from one thing to another. When you're lost in fog, a considered approach is healthy. What do they say about those who rush in? Oscar Thursday December 28 Full Steam Ahead More Sally Fisher Art here. Mars and Neptune always make a powerful combination. Whenever fire and water mix, things get steamy. But the heat these planets create doesn't have to make us uncomfortable. And the humidity needn't dampen our spirits either. Water vapour, though nebulous and difficult to direct, can be used to drive powerful engines. Today, if a rage needs to be quelled, it can be. And, if a dream needs chasing, or a fantasy needs to be made into a reality, the power we need is at our disposal. Friday December 29 Lap of the Gods More Sally Fisher Art here. As we move towards the end of the western year, we celebrate the end of another circle around the Sun. In astrology, the Sun's ingress into Aries in March heralds another lap around our celestial racecourse. Yet, calculated from the appropriate date, any day might mark the renewal of this journey. As Mercury and Jupiter make a tricky alignment this weekend, no matter where we are on the ride, stationary Uranus is encouraging a dramatic change, which the coming Full Moon will help us complete. Saturday December 30 Your January Monthly Forecast More Sally Fisher Art here. The New Year begins with the Full Moon forming an astrological 'kite' with Neptune and Mars. Mars then makes a conjunction with Jupiter in Scorpio, (for the first time since 1982), whilst engaged in an encouraging link with the Sun. A Blue Moon Lunar Eclipse rounds off January. Which cliche should I use? Beginning with a bang? More action than you can shake a stick at? Both would be appropriate! Except, if there's one thing the month ahead will be, it's not cliched. Prepare for a unique and inspiring month. Sunday December 31 Your Week Ahead - Love Focus More Sally Fisher Art here. Remember, your Love Forecast today does not just cover romance. A love forecast may also have something to say about your family life, your closest friendships and even some of your most important working relationships.
