Daily Horoscope for Gemini Summary

It seems as though everything these days is some kind of divisive topic. There have always been divisive topics; there will always be divisive topics. That's not new. But in an age where people are dehumanized more and more, and where such a significant portion of people's interactions are virtual, we're handling them different than ever before. There's a degradation of the "closeness" that once defined the average relationship. People can take sides all they want and you can look at people who agree with you today and think you're "on the same team". But when a different topic comes up that you stand on either side of, what happens to your relationship then?

The current energy will magnify that to a great extent, as we have a Saturn-Uranus-Sun/Mercury T-Square going on. The element of "I can't back down; I can't lose" will be very strong. And when you're engaged in arguments/disagreements with others, allowing the sense of winning to overtake the need to actually figure out what's right does a disservice to all who are involved. You'll have people on both sides of arguments with valid points, blowing well past them in search of hyperbole and "destroying" those on the other side of the debate. "When two morons argue about something, a moron wins" - Aristotle (at least I think it was Aristotle).

So with that in mind, aim to be above the madness. If you want to correct others when they're wrong, fine - they're probably not going to listen to you but you tried. But try to learn something along the way so that you're smarter and more knowledgeable in understanding your own situations. Don't resort to extremes, as this is also one of those "cry wolf" transits where if you're full of crap, people will stop believing you. And above all, don't let petty squabbles get in the way of your relationships, because half of the things people will tend to argue about right now aren't all that important in the grand scheme of things. Don't be the one who lets minimal stuff drive a wedge in between you and others; recognize the humanity of those around you (especially in a virtual sense) and treat them as such. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Gemini

Working with others isn't a bad thing. But here you need to find that balance between being helpful and doing everything for people around you. If there's too much sacrifice involved in certain relationships, you have to find ways to help those people become more dependent. Also remember there are a lot of learning experiences to be had right now, for you and others, and if you're too involved in someone else's experience, they might not learn the things they need to.

...Show some Love...

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
