Daily Horoscope for Cancer Summary

When it comes to making changes in life, the current energy is asking all of us to "step our game up". It's about having higher standards for the way we approach things in our day-to-day lives. It's about doing best we can at something just because we can, not because there's some overt reward waiting for us at the end. When there's no instant incentive for doing something, a lot of people back down, fold or start coming up with reasons and excuses. The world is full of that already, but it's those who choose not to, who do elevate the bar that tend to stand out among the rest. If that's the route you've chosen, you might feel a little more wind in your sails today, which won't necessarily make things easy, but it can make them easier.

As you go through the day though, you want to keep in mind others can be very objective driven as well and this can seep into the social landscape. Don't expect everyone to be their usual flowery selves today; a lot of the communications can be very purpose driven and at times rather blunt and without regards for emotional interpretation. So if someone says something you're not all that happy with, try not to take it the wrong way. A lot of petty squabbles and passive aggressiveness can formulate here just because people are too caught up in the day-to-day to worry about sensitivity. If you get a chance yourself, try to pay more mind to this aspect of communications, but be aware that some communications might get icy for seemingly dumb reasons. If you can navigate around that though, the energy overall is pretty good and conducive to getting things done. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Cancer

You might be look to tailor who you spend time with here to better suit the things you're interested in. That might mean not hanging around those going in different directions as much as you normally would and shifting more towards people doing the same things. While this often leads to social interactions being defined more by objectives rather than your personal affinity for a person, the energy can smooth things out a bit when dealing with those who you don't vibe with as much as long as you're working towards the same thing.

...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
