Daily Horoscope for Cancer Summary

There's a strong emotional churn to this energy and for many, there can be times where it seems overwhelming. Today's chart takes it up a notch, where people will be feeling things more intensely, but not as well-equipped to deal with those feelings in the moment. While people are more likely to keep things to themselves here, often out of shame, embarrassment or a simple unwillingness to seem vulnerable, it's not going to make the situations causing these feelings go away on their own. At some point, we'll all have to deal with them in some way or another. But as long as things remain concealed, you might see people acting strangely (or it could be you doing that to others). Don't read too much into it, and don't accept too much as fact until you have more context.

Aside from that though, the rest of the chart will do a good job of getting us agitated enough where it inspires action. There's enough challenge in the chart where we can't sit on our asses, but there's enough "grease" in the chart that when we do end up doing something, it's not going to seem as hard as we envisioned it in our minds. In most situations, success will be about sucking it up and doing something, rather than coming up with reasons and excuses for why it won't work before you try. So throw some feelers out there and see what you come up with if you're stumped on what to do next. Get the ball rolling and momentum will take it from there. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Cancer

The emotions here can run very hot and cold. This is something that can confuse others, especially if you get real interesting in something they have to say one second, and then are backpedaling to create space the next. Finding that middle ground where you can be open, yet not share literally everything will help a lot. You can also use others as guard rails to establish topics of conversation, rather than bouncing around on scattered trains of thought.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Cease learning, no more worries
Respectful response and scornful response
How much is the difference?
Goodness and evil
How much do they differ?
What the people fear, I cannot be unafraid

So desolate! How limitless it is!
The people are excited
As if enjoying a great feast
As if climbing up to the terrace in spring
I alone am quiet and uninvolved
Like an infant not yet smiling
So weary, like having no place to return
The people all have surplus
While I alone seem lacking
I have the heart of a fool indeed – so ignorant!
Ordinary people are bright
I alone am muddled
Ordinary people are scrutinizing
I alone am obtuse
Such tranquility, like the ocean
Such high wind, as if without limits

The people all have goals
And I alone am stubborn and lowly
I alone am different from them
And value the nourishing mother
