A week that ends quieter than it starts

The first half of the week is loud and the second half is not, and for once that is the right way round. Monday and Tuesday are for the thing you have been meaning to say to somebody’s face. By Friday, with the new moon at dawn, you will want a clear desk more than a new idea, which is unusual for you and worth going along with.

Love

You have been quick this month and somebody close has been keeping up out of politeness rather than pleasure. Slow down for one evening. Ask a question you do not already know the answer to, and then leave the silence after it alone; the answer is worth more than the point you were going to make.

Work and money

Something you began in the spring is still open and it is costing you more in attention than it would in effort. Give it Wednesday. If you are waiting on somebody else, chase once, plainly, and then set it down: chasing twice makes you the problem instead of them.

Body and mind

Your energy is front-loaded and Thursday is where it runs out. Put the hard training and the hard conversations before then. Eat at proper times rather than when you happen to notice; you are the sort who skips lunch and then blames the afternoon on other people.

The day to watch

Friday, when finishing will feel better than starting
