Weekly Horoscope (June 23 – June 29): Predictions for Monkey Chinese Zodiac
Monkeys are clever, playful, and quick with ideas. But this week reminds you that every yes must have a purpose. Say no when your heart is unsure, and protect your future energy. Too many tasks can block true joy. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Trust your inner wisdom to guide you. You do not need to join every game to win. Pause before acting, and you'll find deeper happiness and direction in your choices. Weekly Career Horoscope for Monkey Chinese Zodiac For career, the Monkey must focus more on clarity than excitement. New opportunities may come fast, but not all are worth your time. Say no to roles that distract from your real goals. Your mind is sharp, so careers in tech, sales, media or consulting will bring good rewards. Avoid office politics and overpromising. Think before you act. A thoughtful pause now can open the right door later. Your skill speaks louder than speed. Weekly Love Horoscope for Monkey Chinese Zodiac In love, the Monkey should be honest with their own feelings. This week, it's better to wait than to rush into something unsure. If in a relationship, communicate clearly about boundaries and time. If single, do not entertain connections just for fun if your heart is not in it. A real connection needs patience. Emotional clarity is more attractive than confusion. Say no to old patterns, and love will come in a healthier form. Weekly Money Horoscope for Monkey Chinese Zodiac With money, Monkeys must be mindful. You are good at spotting deals, but this week says to avoid saying yes to every offer. Save before you spend. Do not lend money just to please someone. A budget, even simple, will protect your future gains. Investing in knowledge or self-growth will bring the best returns. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Smart choices now will keep you strong later. Weekly Education Horoscope for Monkey Chinese Zodiac In studies, the Monkey must resist distractions. You learn quickly, but this week demands discipline. Say no to too much social media or extra tasks that steal your study time. Pick subjects that truly interest you and give full focus. A calm study space will improve your speed and memory. If confused, ask for help instead of guessing. A steady routine is better than last-minute pressure. Success follows patience, not just talent. Weekly Health Horoscope for Monkey Chinese Zodiac Health-wise, the Monkey needs to care for the nerves, eyes, and digestion. Overthinking or late-night stress can cause sleep problems and anxiety. Say no to heavy meals before bed. Light exercise, stretching and quiet time in the evening will calm your system. Avoid spicy or junk food when feeling low. Protect your eyes from screens. Saying no to stress and yes to peace is your medicine this week. Your body follows your mind.

Ben Harvey: A cuddly WA invention will work wonders for worried kids
I never had a teddy bear as a child. Does that make me a survivor? I had a pretty impressive stuffed Snoopy but he was quite angular and not very soft, so ill-suited to snuggling. My brother Oliver had a stuffed monkey, which he imaginatively called Monkey. As was the style with toys and cartoons back in the day, monkey had a shirt but no pants. Our sister had several teddies, which Oliver and I considered (and still consider, if we're being honest) proof she was (and is) loved more than us. Georgina also had an array of Cabbage Patch dolls, which we took great delight in hanging from the ceiling fan in her bedroom. Can you imagine what would happen if a kid did that today? The Department of Child Protection would be onto the parents in a flash as part of a wide-ranging investigation into a hate crime. As you can see from the picture below, Monkey and Snoopy are still around. Snoop (that's his name, and yes I know that's only marginally more imaginative than Monkey) is still in mint condition because he lived at the foot of the bed. Monkey is a bit worse for wear because he spent most of his life wedged under Oliver's armpit. His neck was clearly a weak point because after a few years the stuffing started leaking, like a fluff-filled carotid artery had ruptured. We stitched him back together but then he looked like Frankenstein, hence the bandage. I don't know where the Cabbage Patch dolls ended up. They're probably stowed somewhere at Mum's house next to My Pretty Ponies, Alf dolls and other Hasbro relics from the 1980s. If someone had seen fit to give me a teddy in the 1970s when I was growing up (seriously, after re-reading that last sentence I really think I'm allowed to call myself a survivor*) then it would no doubt have been a pretty stock-standard bear-shaped, fabric-wrapped ball of stuffing. We had low expectations of a teddy bear back then so if it didn't poke my eye out like Snoopy's tail did then I would have been happy. Fast-forward a half a century or so and toy animals are very different beasts. They move, make noises and physically interact with their owners. Some are Bluetooth-enabled to ensure a constant life-like presence. They're furry companions that are almost like real animals. We had those kinds of things when I was young. We called them 'pets'. This could be repressed rage from my bear-deprived childhood speaking but I think teddy bears that try to be human are a complete waste of money which a parent could have used more wisely at Dan Murphy's. The bear in the picture is not a waste of money because it's not just a teddy; it's a cleverly disguised psychological tool. Louise Mansell invented Tedology (love that name!) after realising the humble teddy could be a delivery mechanism for mini psychology sessions when kids are a bit overwhelmed by life. In creating Tedology, Louise brought to bear (sorry) 15 years of experience as a clinical psychologist. The toy's functionality extends from the relatively simple (it's weighted differently, its crinkly ears make a pleasing sound when they are squeezed, and different-textured paws invite a child to soothe themselves by rubbing them) to advanced (each squeeze activates one of 10 guided audio activities designed to help a kid manage their feelings). The latest prototype (it's not on sale just yet) was unveiled in Perth on Friday at an event called Future by Design. Future by Design was created by one-time chief information officer for the WA Government, Marion Burchell, who wanted to 'empower individuals, communities, and organisations to actively shape the future through knowledge, innovation, and intentional collaboration'. I have no idea what any of that means but it sounds very exciting and I quite like the idea of designing the future instead of just passively waiting for it to happen. And if a fluffy, intelligent teddy bear is in that future alongside a garrotted monkey, a lynched Cabbage Patch Doll and uncomfortably rigid Snoopy, then all the better. *Plus I was ginger — surely that qualifies me for some kind of government compensation package?
