Daily Horoscope for Capricorn Summary

The fates like to overload us at times, and this is one of those charts that can do just that. Sun across Neptune, Venus and Mars together, Mercury retro, the T-Square. Unfortunately, living in a bomb shelter and riding the storm out is no way to handle things, so we've got to deal. No way around it.

The Sun-Neptune energy should be good and warmed up by this weekend. It deals with troubles with reality, problems with dreams and such. There can also be issues where a cause doesn't result in the effect it's supposed to have, which can lead to some confusion. Once you add in Mercury retro, people are going to be wandering aimlessly, trying hard to get a grasp of what's going on around them, but this won't come easily. There's going to be a lot of cluelessness going on out there, with some accidents for sure (be careful, and more importantly, attentive, in the car). Some of the comments people can make have no basis in fact, as they can say whatever's running through their mind at that particular second. So you need to navigate around this. With Mercury in Virgo, this is all about getting the details right. Even if you have a premise down, if you don't know how it all fits together, you'll be lost if things are presented in a different light.

Venus-Mars injects the love and romance aspect into things as well. If you're lucky, these types events will manifest on their own, where there can be very positive developments. But you kind of have to deal with things on the surface and in the immediacy of the moment. Thinking about things will cause you to lose sight of what's really happening, where you might make a connection steamier (in your mind) than it actually is, or conversely, talking yourself out of believing someone else is interested (when they actually are).

Monetarily, the desire to go out do your best is there, and Mars can provide that energy surge, but there are pitfalls to watch out for as well. It's going to be a little easier to spend frivolously and you won't get good return on any impulse buys. There's also the double whammy of disillusion (Sun-Neptune and Mercury) affecting your ability to judge value. You can buy things this weekend thinking they're the best things on Earth, only to realize a couple weeks down the line that they are complete pieces of junk. Make sure you really research any important purchases, and above all else with everything you experience this weekend, search for the facts. Facts are your ultimate ally in combating the obstacles this energy presents. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Capricorn

Stubbornness can overcome you, particularly when you deal with more elaborate concepts. There are things you've learned in your days that you are particularly fixed to and if someone comes along and tries to show you a variant or a new way of doing things, you can be extremely skeptical, if not out and out opposed. This is going to slow you down though, because as time moves along things evolve. It's up to you to find ways to warm to new ideas or you might find your methods can become outdated quickly.

...Show some Love...

Perhaps there is a pattern set up in the heavens for one who desires to see it, and having seen it, to find one in himself...

Daily Tao

After settling a great dispute
There must be remaining resentments
How can this be considered good?
Therefore the sage holds the left part of the contract
But does not demand payment from the other person
Those who have virtue hold the contract
Those without virtue hold the collections

The Heavenly Tao has no favorites
It constantly gives to the kind people
