PREVIOUS THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY March 4 2024 to March 10 2024 Monday March 4 Happy Birthday! The lyrics to "Happy Birthday To You" were published 80 years ago. What did people sing before then? Whatever it was, it clearly couldn't hold a candle to Happy Birthday! Sometimes, something comes along and sweeps away all memory of how we used to do things. As Mercury and Uranus link, they encourage us to experiment with new ideas. But with Jupiter and Neptune also aligning, we can't forget what came before. Success today, requires us to consider the bigger picture. Tuesday March 5 St Piran's Day It's St Piran's Day, when we celebrate the Cornish saint and the rich cultural history of South West England. According to the legend, St Piran was tied to a stone and thrown into stormy seas. As he touched the water, the ocean turned calm and he floated serenely to a Cornish beach. Nice! Following the Jupiter/Neptune link, our own seas may need becalming! Fortunately, divine intervention is available. It brings the confidence to 'swim' in the right direction in pursuit of a dream. Wednesday March 6 Invest in Success We often struggle to ask for help. For some reason, we think that relying on support networks shows weakness. But if someone comes to us in need, do we think less of them? Or does the chance to invest in their success make us feel good? Having people who appreciate us adds to our sense of self-esteem.

How about a combination of both? That's fine - as long as we don't expect to know the exact balance of this mixture! But this celestial event's greatest benefit is a better understanding of the bigger picture. Context matters. And in becoming more aware of our environment, we'll find that our ideas can start making an exciting, noticeable difference. Friday March 8 International Women's Day Happy International Women's Day!
