Horoscopes By Jonathan Cainer Horoscopes Thought for the day 4 September 2014 Dear Jonathan, You recently asked whether, if a tree falls in a forest where there is nobody to hear it, does it make a sound? There is an entire ecosystem there, all of which can sense the falling of the tree, and respond to it. Sally Anne Hi Jonathan, The physical movement of the tree snapping and falling would create vibrations in the air, but those vibrations would need audio receptors to translate them into sound. If the only form of life nearby were a deaf person, they would confirm that it does indeed, not make a sound. Mike Aquarius Jan 21 - Feb 19 aquarius They say there is many a slip twixt cup and lip. I have never understood why they say this. Have they, perhaps, been watching a lot of airline passengers trying to sip their tea while the plane is encountering turbulence? Even if so, that is surely the exception, not the norm. Most plans and processes in life go surprisingly smoothly. Thats why we tend to become so flustered when, once in a while, they dont. You have every reason to trust that what has recently begun will come to a satisfactory conclusion. Pisces Feb 20 - Mar 20 pisces Why are some folk so easily able to compartmentalise their thoughts and feelings? When something happens, they react and forget, carrying on as normal in every other way. Yet most of the rest of us (present company included) cant just throw some mental isolation switch. We take those memories and emotions with us wherever we go. To some extent, thats healthy and natural. But there comes a point when we all have to be able to pull down a shutter. Events today, will help you achieve an important separation. Aries Mar 21 - Apr 20 aries The trouble with knowing exactly what you want is that, if you dont get it, you end up feeling disappointed. Thats why many people feel that it is better to have only a rough idea of what you are after. Then, within reason, you can take delight in any outcome that ensues. Our critical faculties often get in the way of our ability to have fun. Where a definition now must be precise and clear, leave it in place and aim for perfection. But where there is room to allow for a compromise, make that space. Sometimes, a fudge can be sweet. Taurus Apr 21 - May 21 taurus Our memories are not our enemies. Nor, though, are they always our greatest friends. We may need to exercise a degree of discrimination over how much of our time and energy we take up with reflections on the past. If, today, there is a mood that you just cant shake off or an issue that you keep dwelling on, make a clear, conscious decision either to let it all the way in or push it all the way out. Try not to imagine that you have little or no choice in the matter. Your thoughts can and will respond to your preferences today. Gemini May 22 - June 22 gemini Does fate dictate our eventual state? Or are our choices and opinions more powerful than we know? This is a thorny old debating point. I dont intend to proffer a definitive answer here and now - or indeed, anywhere at any time! But most philosophers feel that some strange combination of the two forces best explains the way in which we appear to find some situations inescapable, while other developments seemingly transpire only when we stretch and push ourselves as far as possible. Reach for what you want today. Cancer Jun 23 - Jul 23 cancer Sometimes, we will do more to help others than we will do to help ourselves. For someone we love, we will go that extra mile. Whereas, when we look at our personal unmet needs, we can soon persuade ourselves that we are not entitled to reach for the very best. Sometimes too, people who enter a perverse mental state will strive harder to prevent someone else from getting their own way, than to facilitate their own progress. If you are mainly being motivated now by the desire to influence another persons life, make sure that your intention is noble. Leo Jul 24 - Aug 23 leo Once in a while, we all have to calculate how much it might be appropriate to charge for performing a particular task. There are, of course, many things that we do on which no price could ever be put. We would not dream, for example, of accepting remuneration for an activity that we enjoyed. Or for making a contribution of time which we felt pleased to donate from the goodness of our heart. Actually, you are precious beyond all measure. That may not be reflected in your income today but, still, you should not forget this. Virgo Aug 24 - Sep 23 virgo You are not as vulnerable as you may fear. You stand to lose far less than you imagine. Why then, are you entertaining anxious thoughts about the various arrangements that might fall apart and the problems that could arise? What you need now is not so much an insurance policy as a vote of confidence in your own ability to survive and thrive. The only fact that is really now making you weak, is your own propensity to be overly aware of potential weaknesses! You will be surprised how you can fix that today! Libra Sep 24 - Oct 23 libra We all wheel and deal to a certain extent. We instinctively trade and barter. We automatically offer and we exchange. Though this may be more obvious in those of us who manage shops or run businesses, the same traits and tendencies can be observed wherever there are human interactions. If you arent happy with a deal that is being offered to you now, subtly and gently propose an alternative set of terms. If your proposal is cleverly thought-through and delicately presented, you may yet find you get a good response. Scorpio Oct 24 - Nov 22 scorpio If we dont act with passion, we often get unsatisfactory results. It is when we put our hearts and our souls into plans and projects that they pay us back handsomely for all our efforts and endeavours. Once in a while, we may encounter the disappointment of discovering that despite all the commitment we have shown, little of importance has been achieved. That is never a reason to be deterred, although it may be a reason to change tack. You are now closer than you think to an arrangement that brings lasting benefit. Sagittarius Nov 23 - Dec 21 sagittarius You may know what you think you want but do you know what you really want? Often, we dont get to find out what genuinely suits us, until we have learned some lessons the hard way and gained firsthand experience of what particular rewards and results actually mean. With the benefit of hindsight - and in the light of new discoveries being made as we speak - you are redefining key hopes and expectations. There is no shame in changing your mind about a sensitive matter. And there is no point in keeping up a pretence. Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 20 capricorn Many of historys most important figures could neither read nor write. They didnt even have a grasp of basic maths. Yet today, we all subscribe to the belief that academic prowess will translate directly into career success. Yet there are some who argue that it is possible for a person to become over-educated. If a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, a lot can leave a person feeling overwhelmed by options and possibilities. Just be aware that you know enough already today, to make the decisions you need to make.
