Daily Horoscope for Cancer Summary

It's only worth worrying about the things you can control. That's the basic theme of the current chart, where we have Neptune opposite Mars, which can tend to stoke the emotional fires and get us amped up, but usually about things that are out of our hands. When we respond to these things directly, there's a high likelihood that we're not going to improve the situation, and might only make it worse. The things that trigger these emotions resonate, so they can sit at the forefront of our minds, and they can monopolize our focus at times.

But while that's going on, the rest of the chart is pretty favorable, albeit in the background. This tells us a lot of things are going to work themselves out. Many of these things are going to require minimal or no effort from us either. As long as we aren't our own worst enemies, situations around us should improve to an extent. So the bulk of this chart is about not getting too caught up in our perceptions of focused events and trying to see things on the whole. It doesn't mean we're not going to have our challenges, but for right now at least, learning new ways to deal with those challenges so they aren't as daunting should come a bit easier. So if things seem rough, hold it together and see how things develop because opportunities for relief or improvement should be there. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Cancer

You can be a pretty harsh critic of others today, and when you do start to criticize people, it'll be hard for you to know when you should lay off. Your mindset on that end should be to be helpful first and foremost (even if people around you are irritating you). Remember that there are learning curves (a perspective that might be harder for you to see here) and try to give people the benefit of the doubt if they aren't sharp the first time they pick something up.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Yield and remain whole
Bend and remain straight
Be low and become filled
Be worn out and become renewed
Have little and receive
Have much and be confused
Therefore the sages hold to the one as an example for the world
Without flaunting themselves – and so are seen clearly
Without presuming themselves – and so are distinguished
Without praising themselves – and so have merit
Without boasting about themselves – and so are lasting

Because they do not contend, the world cannot contend with them
What the ancients called "the one who yields and remains whole"
Were they speaking empty words?
Sincerity becoming whole, and returning to oneself
