Daily Horoscope for Aries Summary

We’re in the midst of a lull astrologically, without any major aspects going on. We do have Mercury and Saturn retro though, which should shine through a little bit more through next few days before our next big aspect. You know all about Mercury retro since we harp on it a ton. Car issues, technical problems, communication mishaps and so on. These things seem potent at the time, but usually are minor frustrations that say “Hey I need fixing” or “I didn’t need fixing, but you tried to anyways and really broke me this time”.

Saturn retro works a bit differently. The example I usually give is, what happens when you touch the hot stove? You burn your hand and you learn immediately that touching the hot stove is bad. Now imagine you have no pain receptivity (and there are actually people who don’t). You touch the hot stove, only nothing is telling you, “This is bad”. You can leave your hand on long enough that you get some pretty serious burns. There’s no bad experience, but you end up with bad results.

With Saturn retro, the universe isn’t going to step in and check you when you’re doing something that could be harmful in the long run. The onus is on you to be responsible for yourself and your own actions. You might not think you are making any mistakes, but in reality, they can come back and burn you more than the ones you’re aware of (because you can at least learn from those). So pay attention to what you are doing today and onward. You have to be aware of when something isn’t a good idea, because you won’t be getting the warning to do so. Through this you can develop better self awareness and discipline, which will follow through when Saturn goes direct once again. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Aries

Some of the aggressive energy you carry around with you is going to dissipate here, which can diminish your competitiveness and can leave you looking to respond to people, rather than taking the lead in the conversation. If you end up in isolated situations, it can take a toll on your psyche, so you should be looking to keep others around as frequently as you can, even if you aren’t particularly enjoying their company.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

There is something formlessly created
Born before Heaven and Earth
So silent! So ethereal!
Independent and changeless
Circulating and ceaseless
It can be regarded as the mother of the world

I do not know its name
Identifying it, I call it "Tao"
Forced to describe it, I call it great
Great means passing
Passing means receding
Receding means returning
Therefore the Tao is great
Heaven is great
Earth is great
The sovereign is also great
There are four greats in the universe
And the sovereign occupies one of them
Humans follow the laws of Earth
Earth follows the laws of Heaven
Heaven follows the laws of Tao
Tao follows the laws of nature
