Daily Horoscope for Libra Summary

Now, I'm not the world's smartest man. However, I do know that if you want someone to hurry things up, angrily screaming "Do it faster!" into their ear isn't helping. Getting angry at someone is never the missing element to success. There's no one reflecting out there when things are done poorly and saying to themselves, "if only I yelled more and wildly gesticulated, this would have gone way better".

Today, there's probably going to be people out there in the wilds doing this though. Frustration, impatience and some sense of urgency can take hold within us and that can push us towards doing things that are irrational. Don't be the guy at McDonald's throwing a hissy fit because your order took 4 minutes to come out instead of 3 1/2 minutes. Most of this stuff just isn't that important.

What is important is to remember the impact escalation has on the world around us. We're emotional creatures, and things that happen in the morning linger on until later in the day if we continue to think about them. The decisions we make are often not based in the moment, but in that moment combined with the lead up to that moment. It's usually a good idea to limit emotional impact in the decision making process, but it's real hard to complete negate those things. Mood matters. Today, it will matter more, so if others around you are being Negative Nancies or Angry Arnolds, it's going to make it harder to do the things you need to. Likewise, if you're being that person, you aren't helping; you're making others' lives more difficult (which tends to come around and make yours more of a pain as well). So don't do that. Strive for deescalation - the calmer things are, the better they will go. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Libra

Matching what others feel to be important can be a challenge here - the things you care most about might not be what others put too much stock in. You can tend to get a bit bent out of shape in these situations, which won't help you in your interactions with others. You want to be careful that you aren't hastily closing the doors on viable options out of frustration. Remember that others can retract their willingness to help just as easily as they can offer it. You might have to come to agreements that satisfy both parties in these scenarios; be willing to negotiate and more will be on the table.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Small country, few people
Let them have many weapons but not use them
Let the people regard death seriously
And not migrate far away

Although they have boats and chariots
They have no need to take them
Although they have armors and weapons
They have no need to display them

Let the people return to tying knots and using them
Savor their food, admire their clothes
Content in their homes, happy in their customs

Neighboring countries see one another
Hear the sounds of roosters and dogs from one another
The people, until they grow old and die
Do not go back and forth with one another
