Daily Horoscope for Leo Summary

Nothing quite like waking up to Monday and seeing a T-Square in the chart. But that's the hand we've been dealt today, and on top of it, retro Mercury runs opposite of Neptune. That's almost too much chaos to cram into one nice concise package (let alone day). The real truth of the matter is that there are going to be situations that arise that call on you to step it up today. Are you bringing your A game? How badly do you want something? All of this is pertinent information for the universe, which aims to put you in situations you can handle rather than ones that lead to major meltdowns.

On one end of the spectrum, we have the immediacy of the T-Square, where everything has to come now, and if it doesn't come now, then it might as well never come. This couples with the Mercury-Neptune connection which causes us to look square at the present and take things as absolute truth, rather than factoring in stuff we can't tangibly see (like the thoughts and feelings of others, for one) or other factors developing behind the scenes. In our mad dash to move forward, we can lack the vision in our periphery that allows us to make subtle adjustments that make traveling down the path we're on that much easier.

The key for today's energy is to "take it all in". The emotions can surge here, and everything can really seem super-important, but really think about what's going on in your life. Think about what it really means if everything goes sour today. Chances are really pretty high that if every single thing you do goes wrong today, you'll be able to recover from it fairly soon. Be honest with yourself and don't let the yearning for your wants cause you to adapt a negative attitude. Keep sticking with your own personal program and things will turn out alright. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Leo

You can make people out to be whatever you want in your mind. If you want to have a favorable opinion of someone, you can ignore all of the negative actions they take; conversely you can treat someone like a dirtbag for having a few qualities you don't like (that might not necessarily be bad). You can tend to be very egocentric today as well, so anything that disrupts your little universe is seen to have major flaws and you'll attempt to deal with it.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

When it is peaceful, it is easy to maintain
When 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
