Daily Horoscope for Leo Summary

Just a thought before I begin the 'Scopes... Funny thing I just thought of... I just saw myself in the mirror and one of the best things about getting "old" is that you can wear the goofiest of clothes when we're just "bummin' around the house"... Where colors don't match or whatever... Those clothes we bought when Mercury was retro, that seemed like a good idea at the time but we never wore... But after Mercury returned to forward (direct) motion, we realized clothes were really rather umm ummm... horrible... hehe... The great part about this is that nobody seems to mind or even notice when you wear them because you're "old"... hehe... It's almost to be expected... Ahhh... It's like freedom... Perhaps that's why on the holidays my kids get me "cool" presents... so I don't go out in "public" wearing my "around the house clothes"... hehe... Ok, 'nuff about that, let's get into the 'Scopes!

Anyway... The Sun is up this mornin' so we've survived the Total Eclipse and that means each of us still has a destiny to fulfill, so we better get to it... (after the 2nd cuppa-coffee that is)... Today's energy has a deeper emotional intensity built into it... The kind that can "shake, rattle and roll you" into summoning up your inner determination to bring about greater positive changes in your life... But before you start getting all kinds of "balls to the walls"... You would be wise to have a very clear and precise action plan to work from.

This energy has a very powerful "personal survival" quality to it... That's because there are only 3 planets (Mars, Venus and Jupiter) that are moving forward... Those 3 planets are the planets that are responsible for making sure we have the things that we'll need in the future... If you think about it this way, it may make more sense to you... With so many planets being retrograde, the emphasis of many will be to try to "keep things as they were in the past"... (especially where their own livelihood depends upon that)... But as we shift into the new astrological age, many of those existing systems will fail (they already are)... Venus, Mars and Jupiter would be screaming out that if we don't evolve, we may not exist later on... Trackin' with me?...

It's very much like my "bitcoin" stories... Back in May, I bought a skeptic friend $100 of bitcoin for a birthday present... Last week, I was asked what they were currently worth, so I looked it up and they were worth $287... (almost triple in value in only 3 months)... We are now seeing the more the "old ways" start to fade into the past, it's those that embrace the "new ways" that can thrive in times like this... Make no mistake, the Aquarian energy has a very hard edge to it... It's not exactly always warm, fuzzy and "kumbayaa"... hehe... It has a "Lead, Follow or Get the Hell out of the Way" quality to it... Aquarius has no room for "pie in the sky utopian theories" as it's mission is to deal with the current reality in the most practical and efficient ways.

Think about it... We're already seeing many of the bigger online sources starting to try to "dictate" and keep track of every thing we do and everybody we have contact with... Places like "Facebook" and the other major social websites... (that's why I personally do not bother with them)... Look back in history, when faced with change, it's much easier for those in positions of power to want to try to force those "under" them to adapt to THEIR wishes/views than for THEM to adapt to the changing times and the best available options that favor the majority... Aquarius energy can be rather "stubborn and fixed" at times and then totally wild and ready to throw caution to the wind at other times... But the Venus, Mars and Jupiter energy are there to warn us that before we tear down the existing structures we had better have something rock solid to replace it with and not just a bunch of theories or utopian dreams... At least that is the way I am reading this chart.

That's it for now... I'll talk to you guys tomorrow...

Keep the Faith... Better Days and Higher Love are comin' soon...

The Daily Horoscope for Leo

The daily horoscope for Leo will now start to set a new tone and direction in your life... The Leo energy is there to lead you towards greater material rewards... Not so that you can lay back and live the life of luxury, but more so that you can focus your attention on being able to do for others what they cannot do for themselves... It's the classic, the more you give, the more that will be given back to you... This is surely great energy to have, but it's not easy because it's not about doing what YOU want to do or what YOU want to give... That would be way too easy.. hehe..!

...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
