Daily Horoscope for Aries Summary

We change the world, or the world changes us. Either way, stasis in all forms is only temporary. If you think about it, that's a good thing - the world would be incredibly boring if we all only had one story to tell. In fact, that's our baseline default for "I'm not trying to have an in-depth conversation", when we tell others "same old, same old". For all of the continuity in our lives, every day, something different tends to happen. It might be a simple conversation, or an act at work, a new TV show you watched or website you read. We don't think of these things, but over time, even these small, unnoticeable changes tend to shape us. They push us in new directions. They create depth of character and emotion and a framework for how we perceive and portray the "stuff" we ultimately do end up talking about.

Eventually though, all of these things tend to catch up with us. Every episode of a TV show ends at some point, and even though there might be continuation on to the next chapter, you still know when it's the next chapter.

The current energy starts to push us into that next chapter of our own individual stories. Again to go back to the TV metaphor, that might mean we get left on something of a cliffhanger here. There can be unanswered questions. There can be uncertainty. There can be impatience. Before binge watching became a thing, we used to have to wait a day or a week before finding out what happens next. And I've written before about technological factors that drive people to have reduced patience for things. But the current chart is one that inflicts it upon us to a degree. The old man likes to say "Hurry up and wait". That applies right now.

In the interim, as you go about your day, the key is to stick to what you think is right. To do the things you know can benefit you in the future. They might not benefit you in the ways you expect when you do them, but you know they're going to be handy resources for later on. While you wait for important details about things in the world around you to catch up, you still have the ability to better position yourself for when they do.

The darker side of the energy might see you trying to force the action, or make things happen before they're ready. Just know that with Uranus, the Sun and Mercury all connecting with the Node, there's an element of information at play. This makes it a little easier. When you get the information you need to make decisions, then it's time to act. But don't let your suppositions and assumptions drive you to that before it's the right time. Look within. Focus on what you can do today to make today better, but with an eye to jump on new chances and opportunities when they open up. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Aries

Today's energy marks a shift towards working efficiently inside of systems. The inner nature of the energy is going to push you towards coming up with solid plans of action for the things you're doing. While you'll have some constraints to deal with, you can still bring a strong level of creativity into what you're doing, and many of your solutions to problems will be quite novel. Dictating your own terms can become something of an issue though, because you'll preemptively see where others might pigeonhole you for being successful where others weren't (like if you fix someone's computer, others might start seeing you as "the computer guy").

...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
