PREVIOUS THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY July 20 2020 to July 26 2020 Monday July 20 Blue New Moon Thinking More Sally Fisher Art here. 'Blue-sky-thinking' is an old term cliche that advocates approaching problems unburdened by doubts or baggage. Personally, whenever I'm flying through the big blue sky, I like my baggage to come too! What we think of as burdensome is often what's needed to ensure that an idea works in reality as well as in theory. As the Blue New Moon opposes Saturn today, any restrictions that we encounter as we plant new seeds of hope are simply ensuring the best chances of their long-term survival.

As Mercury re-makes its encouraging link with Uranus, ahead of leaving its shadow this weekend, we're encouraged to learn through experimentation. Even if we can't find an answer without dedicated research and detailed study, by being creative and expressive now, we'll be closer to a breakthrough. Friday July 24 Play Time More Sally Fisher Art here. Not long ago, I was balancing my time writing these forecasts with teaching the times tables to a bored child. Inevitably it led to frustrated feelings and shortened tempers. Now it's the school holidays I feel less guilty about focusing on fun rather than on educational activities. The approaching Jupiter and Neptune realignment encourages us to forgive mistakes and be more empathetic. Meanwhile Mercury's emergence from its shadow enables us to realise how play can be as enlightening as study. Saturday July 25 Your Weekly Horoscope More Sally Fisher Art here.
