Daily Horoscope for Libra Summary

We're coming off a powerful chart where there was a lot of activity happening at one time. Right now, we still have a lot of those elements still in play, but the transits are fading out. A lot of the impact people were feeling last week is going to start to die down, and things will go back to a more normal sort of flow. The key though is the direction you're heading in. Are you going to allow things last week to alter your direction, or are you going to put up the stop sign and revert back to the old ways? If you think you've made some positive changes in the last week (or even not "changes" but perspective alterations), you're going to need to put in a little extra effort to stick with them today.

In terms of the aspects, we have the Sun-Venus connection moving away from Pluto, but all three are conflicting with Uranus. So people want to do things that change the direction they're heading, but Uranus kind of comes along and makes it so those changes have to buck the system. The cool thing about the energy in general is that it causes people to look at things with a blank slate. Just because there's a ton of things out there that exist doesn't mean you can't come up with something totally different that achieves the same goal in a better way.

Jupiter-Mars is still there too, and that gives people a big drive to do things that are success/growth-oriented. You'll see people trying to advance in their careers. Some people might consider changes in career as well if they don't feel they have much more room to grow. There's also a stronger sense of motivation that comes along with any of the potential we see.

Lastly, Saturn and Mercury are also fading out of a connection, and that's going to make it tougher for people to convey what they mean in a quick manner. A lot of communications can be slower, with more explanation. Things usually don't move along until the person sharing the knowledge feels the recipient gets it. There can be a lot of uncertainty amongst people, especially when the overall chart seems to show everyone that there are unchartered waters waiting to be explored. But the Saturn-Mercury connection slows us down enough so we're not diving right in and getting in over our heads.

Overall, it's a complicated chart and at a minimum, one that should give you a lot more to consider. Take your time and make solid decisions. It's not a bad time to take some chances, but you do want to have reasonable expectations and some level of preparedness for what you might face when you do. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Libra

This energy is a bit weird in that you're really going to have a mental sense of the way you want things to be. You can attack this with a level of perfectionism that others might not be able to keep up with. At the same time, you probably aren't going to see things turn out the way you hoped. That doesn't mean things can't turn out well, but you have to be willing to see past your ideals and requirements and embrace positive turns of events that don't necessarily fit into what you were thinking of.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Attain the ultimate emptiness
Hold on to the truest tranquility
The myriad things are all active
I therefore watch their return

Everything flourishes; each returns to its root
Returning to the root is called tranquility
Tranquility is called returning to one's nature
Returning to one's nature is called constancy
Knowing constancy is called clarity

Not knowing constancy, one recklessly causes trouble
Knowing constancy is acceptance
Acceptance is impartiality
Impartiality is sovereign
Sovereign is Heaven
Heaven is Tao
Tao is eternal
The self is no more, without danger
