Daily Horoscope for Cancer Summary

The ideas going through people's heads right now can be potent, but the actions they undertake aren't always going to line up with the ideas. It's confusing to others as they look on, because one thing isn't always going to lead to another. That's kind of the basis for the energy today, where you try to figure out what the people around you are thinking in some kind of (often futile) attempt to predict what they're going to do next.

One thing you particularly want to be careful of right now is when you (or others around you) are making things unnecessarily hard. Some people are going to steer into trouble rather than away from it. There's often not a lot to be gained by taking the path of least resistance, but the point with today's energy is that resistance itself doesn't make you that much stronger. It's purposeful resistance that does, challenges that actually help you grow. The challenges people take on here aren't really going to do that. So if there's an easier way to get things done, commit to taking that path towards your goals. There will be better times to amp things up if you want to improve. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Cancer

When things get tough, you'll have a propensity to curl up and try to avoid it. It's going to be better to try and deal with things head-on though. You're going to have to find ways to deal with the emotional aspect of situations you're dealing with, especially when they are distracting you from looking at the future by keeping you pinned to the present. The more you can shrug off though, the better you'll do - when you're not operating under self-caused anxiety or pressure, you'll have a clear idea of what you want to do and make a push to get it done.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Those that attained oneness since ancient times:
The sky attained oneness and thus clarity
The earth attained oneness and thus tranquility
The gods attained oneness and thus divinity
The valley attained oneness and thus abundance
The myriad things attained oneness and thus life
The rulers attained oneness and became the standard for the world
These all emerged from oneness

The sky, lacking clarity, would break apart
The earth, lacking tranquility, would erupt
The gods, lacking divinity, would vanish
The valley, lacking abundance, would wither
Myriad things, lacking life, would be extinct
The rulers, lacking standard, would be toppled

Therefore, the honored uses the lowly as basis
The higher uses the lower as foundation
Thus the rulers call themselves alone, bereft, and unworthy
Is this not using the lowly as basis? Is it not so?
Therefore, the ultimate honor is no honor

Do not wish to be shiny like jade
Be dull like rocks
