Description

It seems now "This Monday " equals "Next Monday"

Assume today is Friday (2018-12-14), when I say "This Monday" , I mean "2018-12-10" and "Next Monday " is "2018-12-17"

how can I do to change this behavior?

Research direction
Investigate Duckling's week date logic in the source code (likely in the Date module). Check if there is a configuration parameter for week start day or 'this' vs 'next' semantics. The existing comment may provide insight. Suggest adding a flag to control this behavior or document the default semantics clearly.
