Daily Horoscope for Cancer Summary

It's the New Moon in Virgo Today...
And with the New Moon in Virgo, we also have Virgo's ruling planet (Mercury) retrograde... That sends a very strong signal to "stop, look and listen" very closely to what is going on around you...

"I know... I know"... How many times as parents have we heard our kids saying that when we are trying to tell them something important... All the while knowing that the info is "going in one ear and out the other"... hehe... Mercury retro makes it easy to "assume" that we know and understand things that we do not... It's only later on when things are not working out as planned do we wish we would have listened to the instructions or directions better.

Mercury in mythology was "the messenger of the gods"... (that's why it has the wings on it's helmet)... It goes retrograde when it races too far ahead of the Sun and starts to lose (forget) the instructions/messages the universe has given it to relay to us... That's why I always suggest "writing things down" so there'll be no disagreements or confusion later on regarding important details... Contrary to popular belief, this can be a terrific time to find awesome bargains if you take the time to "research" what you are buying and know the true/real value of the item first. Many sellers will make impulsive choices to "mark things down" under these conditions.

But... (pointing to my butt)...
Fortunately, knowing this astrological fact can help spare us all kinds of needless aggravation... Just by doing simple things like giving ourselves extra time to get to where we are going... (expecting delays)... Paying closer attention when driving because other drivers can make sudden erratic moves... And perhaps most of all, the wisdom of knowing not to try to fix what really isn't broken... hehe... You will find that electronics (computers) tend to screw up... Most of the time, it's just a matter of re-booting or re-setting things... It's when you start takin' things apart that you are likely to get into trouble... hehe.. Especially when you're tryin' to put it all back together again.

Mercury retrograde is really the universe suggesting that we "back off" and to take more time to enjoy the life and people around us... Not to take ourselves and the things we do too seriously... To put away the computers and to actually stop and talk with real people for a change... hehe... Trackin' with me on this?...

Anyway, that's it for now... Things will get interesting... I'll talk to you guys tomorrow...

Keep the Faith... Better Days and Higher Love are comin' soon...

The Daily Horoscope for Cancer

The daily horoscope for Cancer is actually very good in terms of being able to create stronger bonds with others... But with Mercury retrograde on the cusp of the 4th House you have to remember that this is when others tend to "think out-loud"... Saying things like "I am going to do this"... Or "we should do this"... It's easy to take that as a promise of intention, and a few minutes later those thoughts could be long gone... Before taking action, get any agreements in writing!!



...Show some Love...

Today's Astrology Quote of the Day:
Men should take their knowledge from the Sun, the Moon and the Stars...
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson



Daily Tao

Favor and disgrace make one fearful
The greatest misfortune is the self
What does "favor and disgrace make one fearful" mean?
Favor is high; disgrace is low
Having it makes one fearful
Losing it makes one fearful
This is "favor and disgrace make one fearful"

What does "the greatest misfortune is the self" mean?
The reason I have great misfortune
Is that I have the self
If I have no self
What misfortune do I have?

So one who values the self as the world
Can be given the world
One who loves the self as the world
Can be entrusted with the world
