PREVIOUS THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY August 4 2025 to August 10 2025 Monday August 4 A Sparkling Legacy Today is traditionally associated with the day the monk Dom P�rignon created champagne. He left a sparkling legacy! In August, the ongoing connections between Cosmic Titans Neptune, Uranus, and Pluto bring a heady mix of energy changes, all of which are different and potent. Dom P�rignon is a vintage champagne; each vintage is a unique expression of the blend of the annual harvest. The cosmos is encouraging us to develop our finest qualities... and effervesce! Tuesday August 5 Mars, the power planet, is on the move. Mars, the power planet, is moving towards the end of its stay in Virgo. Since Mars is direct, impulsive and impatient, while Virgo is careful, pragmatic and detail-orientated, this interesting cosmic combo encourages us to focus on getting things done. To maximise the energy, it's the perfect time to focus on those daunting tasks we keep putting off. Today marks the anniversary of Harry Houdini staying submerged in water for 1.5 hours. If he can do that, what can you do?! Wednesday August 6 Mars enters Libra "Help! I need somebody, Help! Not just anybody, Help! You know I need someone, Help!" The Beatles released their iconic album 'Help!' on this day back in 1965... and we've been singing those songs ever since. With Mars reaching the end of its sojourn in Virgo and entering Libra (the sign of relationships) today, and Venus, planet of love, in sensitive Cancer, if you need assistance, it's about to get easier to find. And if you're the person being helpful, appreciation levels will be high. Thursday August 7 Innovation meets Art Although the power of planet Mars (named after the Roman god of war), is 'diluted' in peace-loving Libra, the benefits are plentiful. As strength meets grace, and innovation meets art, bridges can be built. The cosmos is encouraging us to reach out, create new alliances, and find ways to strengthen existing ones. Relationships (on the world stage and in our own lives) rise to the top of the agenda. Libra is the sign of justice and diplomacy... which gives us all reasons to hope. Friday August 8 Growing Moon The Moon is growing brighter and bigger before reaching fullness in Aquarius this weekend. With its light focusing on Aquarian values, it's an encouraging portent. With the sign of the water-bearer highlighting freedom, independence, and progress, it's time to push worries aside and think about making plans. If you've been feeling stuck, be on the look-out for innovative ideas that offer ingenious ways to extricate yourself and move forwards, towards a brighter future.
