Daily Horoscope for Capricorn Summary

Maybe Henry Clay could save us, but he’s been dead a hundred and fifty years. You can see dissent rising here in the US. Watch the news (entertainment) media. Troll internet news site and read blogs, and read comments on blogs. On one hand, I’d say we as a people are becoming more informed than we’ve ever been, which is important, but on the other, we are not using the information to our best benefits. And there is a reason for this. It’s called winning.

Look at the debates emerging about hot-button topics. Immigration and Arizona’s law regarding the enforcement of it. Healthcare. The economy. Usage of government funds. The “Tea Party” trying to “take back” the country and liberals trying to give everything they could conceivably come up with away. But if you read the comments, listen to the rhetoric and hear what people are saying on the issues, it all comes back to “winning”.

Those engaged aren’t trying to solve problems, they are trying to win arguments. It’s large political and starts from the top down. Everyone wants to be “right”. In political circles, this makes sense because it’s about job preservation. But us, the common man, this has afflicted us and it further drives the wedge between people. It serves us no purpose. It only builds hard feelings and further cements the “team” mentality that afflicts political debate. That is what is wrong with politics in this day and age. It’s us versus them. It’s the same as sports only there are no balls.

This shortsighted view will crush us if it continues to snowball. There is a middle ground. There is a gray area. Henry Clay would have found it. Everyone is chasing the ideal, and it’s eminent in the astrology, but concession and cooperation are the only way to fix things. If we’re only trying to win, then we all lose. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Capricorn

The differences between others are something you most certainly will get. You can even be open minded and ready to embrace these differences, hoping to make new or stronger connections. The issue is in communication. For some reason you can consistently say things you’ll perceive to be offensive after they come out of your mouth. Either that or in your own attempts to relate things others have been through to things you’ve experienced, you can understate hardships that others have had to endure. Address people on their playing field; you don’t have to understand or empathize with everything they’ve been through. Just try to learn from their experiences.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Heaven and Earth are impartial
They regard myriad things as straw dogs
The sages are impartial
They regard people as straw dogs

The space between Heaven and Earth
Is it not like a bellows?
Empty, and yet never exhausted
It moves, and produces more

Too many words hasten failure
Cannot compare to keeping to the void
