PREVIOUS THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY July 7 2025 to July 13 2025 Monday July 7 Let Go of Expectations Get ready to channel your inner Alice in Wonderland! With change-making Uranus moving into Gemini, which is the sector of the sky that governs the mind, the cosmos is inviting us to get 'curiouser and curiouser'. We need to expect the unexpected; then, we'll be able to take any surprising developments in our stride. They're doorways to new adventures. As long as you're prepared to go with the flow, and deal with unpredictable encounters, you'll find reasons to grin like the Cheshire Cat! Tuesday July 8 Uranus Encourages an Open Mind The innovative cosmic Titan, Uranus, will stay in Gemini until November. Then, it heads back into Taurus, before returning to Gemini (in April 2026) where it stays for over six years. So, this is a taster of what's to come. And, since Uranus shakes up whatever it touches, it's hard to predict what's in store! If we can expect anything, it's that unconventional, revolutionary ideas will have world-transforming consequences. It's about opening our minds and being ready to change. Wednesday July 9 Keep Learning, Keep Growing The coming Full Moon in Capricorn colours all our lives, no matter our sign. It represents a sense of completion in areas where we've invested positive energy. Since it takes place in the sector of the Zodiac that represents achievement, opportunities to make significant progress are possible. On the anniversary of the first ever Wimbledon (1877), if we model the determination and focus of tennis players, we can impress with our style, and get the support of the crowd going forward. Thursday July 10 Asalha Bucha Day Start lighting your candles! The Full Moon of the eighth lunar month (which often happens in July), marks Asalha Bucha Day - a Buddhist festival where communities come together in a spirit of harmony and peace. And with today's Full Moon linking with dynamic Mars, wherever we apply our energy we'll get results. If we work with our passions, and are motivated to make positive change, we can kickstart processes that can be maintained long into the future. Set yourself a goal today, and go for it. Friday July 11 Bathing Under The Full Moon Neptune, (which was discovered in 1846), represents the god of the oceans. Today is the anniversary of its first observed orbit around the Sun. This weekend, it's International Skinny-Dipping Day, and if the idea of nude swimming doesn't take your fancy(!) the influence of the watery planet's retrograde movement in fiery Aries is encouraging imaginative ways to take action. In the legacy of the Full Moon, if we jump into the stream of creativity, it will carry us forwards, with purpose, towards our goals. Saturday July 12 Your Weekly Horoscope The 17th century astrologer William Lilly was so highly respected he was consulted by the King and Parliament. His predictions were such a phenomenon he enthralled the nation. So, we should take notice of his views on stationary planets. He wrote: 'Planets manifest greater and worser evils when they are stationary.' With Saturn, the Cosmic Teacher stationing to turn retrograde, although the weekend might feel lacklustre, it's a good time to reflect on changes we want to make... the time to instigate them will follow.
