Everyone can see the sun in this hot weather scene - but you're a genius if you can spot 5 differences in under 10 seconds
"Anything that offers new challenge and learning opportunities has been found to lead to greater well-being and enjoyment, with studies showing that people prefer to choose a novel and challenging task over an easy, repetitive one, even without reward for participating in either.
"Because we are naturally motivated towards challenge and learning, brainteasers fit into a fun category of hobbies that can improve our mental health."

Weekly horoscope for June 22 – June 28: What the stars have in store for every zodiac sign revealed
OUR much-loved astrologer Meg sadly died in 2023 but her column will be kept alive by her friend and protégée Maggie Innes. Read on to see what's written in the stars for you today. ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20 12 With Mercury sharpening your creative thinking, you possess the ability to review numerous ideas and instantly identify the best one for you. While barriers may still emerge, they will now seem temporary and beatable. In love, it's tempting to keep planning a grand reveal, but your chart is ready for you to simply go for it. A family new moon favors fresh ways of bonding with someone whose name begins with "D." TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21 12 Sticking to your convictions on a family issue may not be easy, but you can achieve it by consistently returning to the "why" rather than fretting over the "how." While you generally dislike conflict, healthy debate can be very healing for you this week. Most read in Fabulous In terms of passion, the new moon helps loosen any shyness, allowing partners to relate on a new level of absolute honesty. If you're single, "The One" might get your name wrong at first. GEMINI MAY 22 - JUNE 21 12 Your chart grants you the energy to restart a cash calculation; play your part by applying your firmest focus and keeping negative voices out of your head. This is a week of communication ease, thanks to Mercury, as even words you assumed were lost in translation could begin to yield rewards. So, do be patient a little longer. Passion brings back a fantasy face. CANCER JUNE 22 - JULY 22 12 With Mars now established in your connections sector, you have the courage to contact anyone, even when unsure of the response. So, use this while it's hot. If you're in love, a personal new moon is your "try-anything" trump card—ask again, and a partner may have changed their mind. If you're single, no one is out of your league; remember that around someone whose name begins with "K." LEO JULY 23 - AUG 23 12 The logic and mental sparkle of Mercury are all yours for the next few weeks, so how will you use it? From writing effective reports to putting difficult feelings into words, you can persuade and promote in your own unique way. Your words could even feature on a stage or screen. A secret that is starting to bother you needs some attention; the new moon can help. VIRGO AUG 24 - SEPT 22 12 Your focus is on the friendship world, and who may need more from you at this time. This could be the least likely person to ask, yet your moon instinct is strong, so do listen to it. If you're in a relationship, Venus keeps a door open while you decide, but this may not be forever. If you're single, your dream date has so many travel stories to tell. Luck circles someone whose name begins with "F." LIBRA SEPT 23 - OCT 23 12 Choosing the right goal at the right time is your big decision this week, and the light of the new moon is your best guide. Even if an ambition isn't the biggest or most impressive, if it feels right, it is right. But you must promise yourself not to keep looking back—only forward. Love that asks more questions than it answers can be a challenge, but an irresistible one. SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22 12 New destinations and a fresh sense of pushing boundaries make your chart dance this week—there's nothing you can't take on when you set your heart on it. But beware of using this strength to slip over some love-lines, perhaps linked to someone not completely free. A better option can be right there when you truly look. Mercury boosts quick-reaction time for prizes. SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 - DEC 21 12 As your learning ability increases almost overnight, this can be your moment to get back to a study or practical experience course. Previous blocks can be gone, and the road to your future feels wide open. You've also taken lessons on board in love, and even against the odds, you should be safe from repeating a recent mistake. So, do trust your heart again, totally. CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20 12 So many aspects of yourself may have puzzled you lately, but now Mercury brings some understanding, plus the ability to push forward again. You can deal with doubts and cope with uncertainty, setting a new standard for everyone else in your life. A moon of reconciliation gets two sides talking again, and a team can be back together. Love is lighter, with a two-way sense of fun. AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 18 12 Sticking to a health track, even when it no longer feels like a great fit, is not the Aquarius answer. This week, you can read or hear about something that could be so much better, and you will recognize it straight away. If you're in love, Mercury adds forward-planning to Venus's security, and some big plans can be made. If you're single, a dull date can hide such a hot prospect. PISCES FEB 19 - MAR 20 12 With the heat of the sun and the insight of the new moon both lighting up your creative chart, ideas flow thick and fast, and at least one can be well underway by the weekend. Read more on the Irish Sun The key is starting strong, even when the plan isn't quite perfect, as you have the initiative to alter it along the way. Passion links to voices, and the way you simply can't ignore one special one.
