Daily Horoscope for Leo Summary

Okay, so Mercury is getting along with Saturn, but the two of them are at odds with Mars, which is cool with Neptune and Jupiter, which are both fighting with the Sun. Huh? Meanwhile, Uranus is waiting to form a complex mutable T-Square with Saturn, Mercury and Mars (that starts to intensify early next week). It sounds like a crazy episode of Jerry Springer!

Let's try to break this down a bit. The Sun connecting with Neptune and Jupiter is going to be a barrier to progress, but it's a current barrier. Some of us are going to see where we want to go, what we are striving towards only to see that right now we just don't have the skills and talents to get it done. Because of this, some of us are going to give up and go home. But, just because we aren't prepared to do what we want now doesn't mean we can't get there eventually. So some of us will use this transit to build up skills that are needed to take the next leap forward. Right now, things might seem tough, but this is the type of energy that will spear head great reformations.

The other side of things has the Saturn, Mars, Mercury and Uranus transit forming. This weekend, you'll notice that the things you do aren't really backing up the things you're saying. This is energy that can cause people to resist doing things they're supposed to for no reason other than “they don't want to.” People aren't going to want to hear others tell them what to do. This will continue on into next week (when Uranus starts to get involved), only it's then where you're going to want people to tell you what to do. This transit can get frustrating in that there's a lot of energy and agitation flowing around because people don't know what they're supposed to do with themselves, or where to go. What we need is to listen to the people around us that can show us the way. With Mercury hooked up with Saturn, they aren't going to put things nicely, they'll bluntly tell us what has to happen (which can hurt feelings) but tough it out. It's the message that's important, not the delivery.

If you look at things on the surface, the planets are in a difficult alignment that can cause some hardship this weekend. But, there's boatloads of potential if you look for direction and commit to building yourself. You're going to have to earn it but it's out there. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Leo

Your sense of pride and honor might lead to you doing some crazy things this weekend. You won't stand to be insulted, but you'll be ten times as riled up if someone insults someone close to you. In a way, you'll almost prefer to spend the weekend defending others because it'll keep the onus off of you and some of your shortcomings. At the same time, there are personal issues you need to address right now because they are holding you back from being at your best. You're probably going to have to face an area that has caused a great deal of hurt in the past, so that you can finally put it behind you and move on.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Look at it, it cannot be seen
It is called colorless
Listen to it, it cannot be heard
It is called noiseless
Reach for it, it cannot be held
It is called formless
These three cannot be completely unraveled
So they are combined into one

Above it, not bright
Below it, not dark
Continuing endlessly, cannot be named
It returns back into nothingness
Thus it is called the form of the formless
The image of the imageless
This is called enigmatic
Confront it, its front cannot be seen
Follow it, its back cannot be seen

Wield the Tao of the ancients
To manage the existence of today
One can know the ancient beginning
It is called the Tao Axiom
