Daily Horoscope for Leo Summary

This is going to be one of those days where pulling together the motivation to take care of the things you need to will be much harder. A lot of that stems from the fact that there's going to be other things you'd rather be doing. If you can come up with a rationale to put something off, it's easy to buy into that, though you're setting yourself up for some hectic moments in the aftermath, scrambling to get things done. Aggressively taking care of responsibilities earlier in the day can take a lot of the pressure off later on and it also allows you more time to actually enjoy the things you want to do, as there won't be that cloud hanging over you from the to-do list.

On the relationship end, you and others can have conflicting goals at times, which often can lead to criticism and struggles in getting on to the same page. Here it'll be easier if you can find others with closer alignment to what you're trying to accomplish for yourself. In some instances, you're going to want to "agree to disagree" with certain people, table the discussion, and don't do anything to strain relationships beyond that. There will be better times down the line to try to discuss these things with others and try to reach consensus, so don't feel compelled to force any issues with others today. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Leo

Diving into new subjects can be exciting, but it's also a time where you have to realize where your limits are (especially when you're really new). You want to avoid faking the funk and pretending you have a deeper grasp of something than you do - that's only going to get you thrown into the deep end. Others can be willing to take you under their wing, but it requires you to at least acknowledge they have more knowledge in a subject than you do. This isn't the time to try to elevate your own standing in your mind, as you'll miss out on a lot of learning opportunities if you do.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Know the masculine, hold to the feminine
Be the watercourse of the world
Being the watercourse of the world
The eternal virtue does not depart
Return to the state of the infant
Know the white, hold to the black
Be the standard of the world
Being the standard of the world
The eternal virtue does not deviate
Return to the state of the boundless
Know the honor, hold to the humility
Be the valley of the world
Being the valley of the world
The eternal virtue shall be sufficient
Return to the state of plain wood
Plain wood splits, then becomes tools
The sages utilize them
And then become leaders
Thus the greater whole is undivided
