Daily Horoscope for Cancer Summary

The current chart is quite active, starting with Mercury retro (while opposing Neptune). This is going to distort a lot of the information you take in, as well as the assumptions you make. People are not going to be on the same page. You can go along and do something, and when you're counting on someone else, they might fall through. You can go back to them and say "You said you'd do this" and they'll reply "I never said that". Our levels of perception can suffer here as well, and we'll tend to interpret things in an odd manner. This includes a tendency to overestimate things that aren't important, while ignoring things that are.

We also have a Pluto-Venus-Jupiter T-square going on, which is going to make things in the career world a bit crazy. The things we want will tend to go against the best possible evolution for us. We can bypass growth in order to avoid short-term discomfort. Anything chaotic can also lead to problems in our personal relationships because people aren't going to know how to figure things out rationally. If you can separate yourself from situations and look at them from an unbiased viewpoint, you'll tend to see the lunacy in everything, but doing so is difficult, and while you're immersed, you have a tendency to look at things in a very close-minded way.

All of that can be kind of brutal, but we also have the Sun connecting with Saturn, which takes an edge off of everything. People will at least realize a need to work through things. People will also see the benefits of putting in a lot of effort, and for most, there will be some form of acknowledgement of things you can control versus things you can't. What you have the power to control, you'll want to handle with all of your energy. The things out of your hands, you aren't really going to gain anything by worrying so much about them.

Overall, the energy is asking us to look at things from multiple viewpoints, to take responsibility for the things on our plates, and to release everything else to go as it may. It's not an easy transit, but most of the difficult portions take place in the mind. If things get stressful, take a step back and make sure you aren't the one making them that way by the way you're interpreting them. There will be a lot of clouds with silver linings, but they're not that hard to find if you're looking for them. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Cancer

Paying attention to what you're doing is important, which can be a little more difficult right now. You should look for ways to regain your focus and eliminate distractions as much as you are presently able to. At the same time, you can have some pretty strong incentives to be responsible and on top of the things others are counting on you to do. At times you might suffer from a need to make things about yourself, which might put others off, so try to keep a group mentality in your approach to handling things.

Daily Tao

Great perfection seems flawed
Its function is without failure
Great fullness seems empty
Its function is without exhaustion
Great straightness seems bent

Great skill seems unrefined
Great eloquence seems inarticulate
Movement overcomes cold
Stillness overcomes heat
Clear quietness is the standard of the world
