Daily Horoscope for Cancer Summary

We've got another chart trying to push us in the right direction, though this isn't always going to be easy. A large reason for that is because the direction we're currently intended to evolve in isn't the one that we set out for. To borrow some sentiment from Sam Kinison, you have to go where the opportunities are. The things we want here might not be on the table. There might be suitable replacements (or hell, something even better), but if we're childish about things, we can end up with nothing. That's not the goal; it only makes things harder.

So the real goal for today is to look at what's there and how you can best capitalize on it. Don't wind up in this persistent state where you chase something that's not viable, only to lament the opportunities you missed along the way. Get somewhere. Achieve a foothold on the path to somewhere better than you currently. And put more focus on how you're progressing, rather than the exact point you're heading. That end-point might change, but you're growth along the way won't. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Cancer

Many of your opinions today can be ego driven, but you'll tend to justify them by claims that you know what's best for all involved. At the same time, you might have these insecurities floating around in your head about if others happen to challenge you, so some of your choices can be pretty passive aggressive in nature. In these cases, it's important to keep things in proper perspective - you might be artificially inflating the importance of how things turn out when they aren't going to reflect too strongly on you as an individual one way or another.

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
