Daily Horoscope for Gemini Summary
Once, long ago, my old man told me the tale of "Catalog Shopping"; for me to paraphrase it probably won't do it justice, but he probably hasn't mentioned it himself here in a while so I'll share.
Once, long ago in the beforetime, when Pa Dowd was younger, he was hanging out in a diner by himself reading a chart (back when he only did astrology as a hobby). This guy comes up to him sits down across from him, inquiring about the chart and such. They get to talking and it turns out the guy is pretty successful, like he's CEO of department store or something else big time. The CEO guy says, "Why do you hate me for being successful?" to which Pa Dowd responded that he didn't, but the CEO guy could kind of tell there was some resentment there.
Afterwards, they had this discussion (the minute details of which escape me presently), but they got to the concept of "Catalog Shopping" (as Pa Dowd has so dubbed). The CEO pulls out this magazine and tells my dad to flip through it. "Pick out anything in there you want". So my dad flips through and sees this pair of Ray-Ban sunglasses. "These look cool," he says. CEO guy says, "Visualize them. See yourself with them." So my dad does this for a second, then CEO guy takes the magazine back.
"As you go about your days, have the vision of you want ready, but do nothing to acquire it. Work as hard as you can in what ever you do. Be excellent and the spirit will find a way to deliver that thing to you." So Pa Dowd leaves the guy and for the next two weeks, he busts ass at whatever job he was at back then. And somehow (in a manner I don't really remember), he ended up with Ray-Ban sunglasses essentially falling into his lap.
A little crazy, aye? The moral of the story is if you have belief, and you work hard, you do the things you're supposed to do, the Universe will provide for you. It might do so in quirky ways that you hadn't expected, but where's the fun in predictability? Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Gemini
While you have many skills, your ability to relate to other people on their own terms will be the strongest. Your words will carry more influence because you are sure of what you have to say. Mentally, you are in tune with what other people want, what they are dreaming about. When you can link up with those who have similar wishes to your own, this is where fireworks can happen. It might involve a bit of work to get ideas to become real, but shared enthusiasm can lift you and any partners up through any rough spots.
...Show some Love...

Daily Tao
When it is peaceful, it is easy to maintainWhen it shows no signs, it is easy to plan
When it is fragile, it is easy to break
When it is small, it is easy to scatter
Act on it when it has not yet begun
Treat it when it is not yet chaotic
A tree thick enough to embrace
Grows from the tiny sapling
A tower of nine levels
Starts from the dirt heap
A journey of a thousand miles
Begins beneath the feet
The one who meddles will fail
The one who grasps will lose
Therefore, sages do not meddle and thus do not fail
They do not grasp and thus do not lose
People, in handling affairs
Often come close to completion and fail
If they are as careful in the end as the beginning
Then they would have no failure
Therefore, sages desire not to desire
They do not value goods that are hard to acquire
They learn to unlearn
To redeem the fault of the people
To assist the nature of all things
Without daring to meddle
