Daily Horoscope for Leo Summary

We're fading out of some pretty significant aspects right now, while nothing else will intensify for a couple of days still. So this is a bit of a lull astrologically. Still, the Sun and the Node are hooked up in a way that can complicate things for the next few days.

In a way it's similar to the Mercury and Venus connections to the Node a few weeks back. Things that you were adamant you wanted had suddenly lost some of their appeal, almost as though the universe is giving you an escape route to back out of some things you've pursued vehemently to this point. This energy works in a similar manner. Rosy views of situations become a lot more real. You can also wonder if the time and effort required for long term goals is really worth the pay off. This is also a time where "emerging" options might conflict with things you've been trying to do for quite some time now.

And yet... when the Node is conflicted, it's usually a pretty big testing ground for all of us. Those "emerging" options can wind up being hollow, providing just enough temptation to get us to abandon our paths. If we balk at the difficulty we come across here, how would we respond when things legitimately got tough? The truth of the matter is that if you really want something (or to really head somewhere), you need to step it up here. A ton of people will find some way to back down, because that's the path of least resistance. But if you can embrace the challenges that come today, you can set a firm foundation looking forward. There's a lot of potential out there, but you need to be at your best to cash in on any of it. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Leo

Let's say for years you go to visit your grandma's house and you always come in through the front door. If one day, for no apparent reason, you come in the back door, you could stand to startle the hell out of her. That's kind of what you're dealing with today. Some of your routine patterns (particularly involving communication) can become so ingrained in the minds of others that they expect you to do something the same way every time. But today, you are liable to change things up, removing them from a usual comfort level, and you need to be prepared for some shocked responses.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

When the world has the Tao
Fast horses are retired to till the soil
When the world lacks the Tao
Warhorses give birth on the battlefield

There is no crime greater than greed
No disaster greater than discontentment
No fault greater than avarice
Thus the satisfaction of contentment
is the lasting satisfaction
