Daily Horoscope for Leo Summary

Saturn is retro, which it will be until about Memorial Day weekend. Saturn retro isn't terribly crippling on its own; I always liken it to a room full of unsupervised, rambunctious kids. You might be able to do what you want without anyone to really yell at you, but that doesn't mean you're immune from causing trouble for yourself; if anything its tougher because you don't have the warning signs to prevent you from doing something stupid. Rules are often repressive but the overwhelming majority of them are there to protect us. Saturn retro takes the kid gloves off and says "Find your own way".

The real downer is that its going to keep Saturn locked into position with Pluto, which most people wouldn't describe as a "peachy" transit. Not much we can do about that though, save for dealing with it.

So how do you make the most of this current stretch. It starts with personal responsibility. You have to know your own limits. You have to know your own duties. Because Saturn's in Libra, much of this will deal with relationships. It means going home at 10:00 after the game to see the missus, instead of drinking some beers with the guys until 3:00 (which will be the far easier choice to make). Because in true Saturn retro fashion, she won't tell you that you messed up... but you messed up, and later on down the line, when you're not expecting it, you'll find out how bad you messed up. So more importantly than anything, uphold your relationship responsibilities.

Aside from that, you'll have to discover motivation internally (also difficult with Mars retro). It can be real easy to get lazy here. Get into the habit of injecting added challenge into the things you do, if only to keep you working hard. People that settle down to take a rest will find it tough to get going again. And lastly, it's going to be quite easy to change some personal routines here; make sure you're building strong routines and not falling into slack ones.

So there you go. It's all on you with energy like this. This is a time where you are the champion of your own destiny. If you want to do the things you need to be successful, you'll discover a boatload of tricks to make yourself better along the way. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Leo

Some of the areas of life where you have been rigid of late can seek you less your personal demands. While this might be beneficial to others around you, it does leave you open to "show weakness"; others might get it in their minds that you will back down under enough pressure. So don't make any full 180s here. A lackadaisical attitude can also envelop you with regards to education or knowledge; studying up on things can seem like such a chore when you can just leap to conclusions. Still, it's on you to know your stuff. Staying informed will keep your productive and successful.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Holding a cup and overfilling it
Cannot be as good as stopping short
Pounding a blade and sharpening it
Cannot be kept for long

Gold and jade fill up the room
No one is able to protect them
Wealth and position bring arrogance
And leave disasters upon oneself

When achievement is completed, fame is attained
Withdraw oneself
This is the Tao of Heaven
