PREVIOUS THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY May 20 2019 to May 26 2019 Monday May 20 Knowledge is Power More Sally Fisher Art here. They say that knowledge is power and that the pen is mightier than the sword. But when things go bump in the night, I'd prefer to be cowering with a rolling pin rather than my pencil case! In reality, knowing that the 'bump' was made by Mr Tibbles (the cat), knocking over the butter dish, quells my nerves far more effectively than carrying an implement in case of a face-to-face meeting with a real cat burglar! Whatever seems scary now will be less so, once properly investigated. Tuesday May 21 A New Light More Sally Fisher Art here. The Sun and Mercury converge today, moments after they enter Mercury's home sign of Gemini. Together, they allow us to see with greater clarity and positivity. This is a day to be bold in both thought and deed. We can be more creative when generating ideas as well as convincing when it comes to sharing them. We talked about not being scared of the dark yesterday. Now, it feels as if a bulb has been switched on. Although problems won't simply disappear, they'll be far less worrisome in this new light. Wednesday May 22 Rebel Rebel More Sally Fisher Art here. There are many ways to rebel. Throwing Molotov cocktails and storming barricades aren't mandatory activities for all revolutionaries. Some people spend their entire lives in quiet rebellion. They're polite; they work normal jobs, and they disrupt the status quo with their innovative outlook. As Mars and Uranus encourage one another they bring an aura of bright new enthusiasm. Breakthroughs are possible. But efforts need to be intelligently focused in order to create anything more than just a flash in the pan. Thursday May 23 Spiritual High More Sally Fisher Art here. Hi Oscar, I recently biked across the world's highest pass: Thorong-La, at 5,416m, in the Himalayas. It's a calm and spiritual place. The Nepalese people were so welcoming. Unlike us Westerners, they own very little, live uncomplicated lives and have no baggage. They helped me to appreciate what I have. Ray Hi Ray, Congratulations! Perhaps their altitude gives them a better attitude? If we could learn to be the same, I expect our own lives would be elevated. Yours Oscar, Friday May 24 The Bigger Picture More Sally Fisher Art here. Today's mantra is: Don't sweat the small stuff. Yet, rather than a drama coming to a head, it's more likely to be the slowness of progress that causes frustration. The Sun makes some brief, minor, uncomfortable links with both Uranus and Saturn this weekend. It suggests that little things will catch us out and hold us back from achieving everything we'd like to achieve. But they're only temporary constraints. As we build towards the Mercury-Jupiter opposition next week, it's well worth focusing on the bigger picture. Saturday May 25 Your Week Ahead More Sally Fisher Art here. This week, Mercury (representing communication) follows in the footsteps of dynamic Mars and moves opposite Jupiter, planet of expansive optimism. They form a link that directs energy towards dreamy Neptune. This heady combination creates an environment which is ripe for exaggeration. And when noble-hearted promises can be made which overlook realistic expectations, Venus, the planet of love adds an extra quality to the mix. Our hearts will know whose words are fanciful, and which ideas to have faith in. Sunday May 26 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.
