Daily Horoscope for Pisces Summary

A eulogy for the garage:

For many people, in their youth (and often beyond that), there are familiar haunts, the old stomping grounds where you regularly meet up and hang out. You might venture to other areas, but there's usually one or two set hang out spots where you go most often, where you feel most comfortable. For the guys in my circle, the spot of our late teens and early twenties was the garage. It was big, could seat 15 guys comfortably (though admittedly there were many nights where guys had to stand up because there weren't 15 chairs) and it was shelter from the wind on many a winter nights. The other guys' moms or dads would drop them off on Friday afternoon and come to pick them up on Sunday night. During the days we'd go off on our regular adventures or play sports of some sorts, and then at night we'd get drunk in the garage.

It was usually rather cold in there during the winter, and most of the time the lights didn't work so we'd have to light a bunch of candles for light, but it served its function of being the chief hang-out spot for a long time.

Predominantly, the only thing really to do inside was talk (or as we liked to call it "philosophizing"). We'd talk about all sorts of topics, many of importance, some revolving around politics or political theory, others around our wishes out of life, some about girls we knew, and others that are best not to mention here. I suppose when you're young, life is so full of possibilities and you give anything a shot.

Anyways, that's what I'll take away most from the time in the garage, is getting to really know your friends and the discussions about hopes, wishes, possibilities and potential. It's probably been around 10 years since the last time any of us hung out inside, but it still was the primary location upon which all of our tightest friendships were formed. I'll miss that aspect, but hey, now the yard'll probably be bigger.

Anyways, today's astrological tie-in is this. The Sun, Mars and Neptune are all hanging out in Aquarius and this is going to put an increased emphasis on exploring the same types of hopes, aspirations, wants and possibilities that we used to talk about back in the day. The Sun and Neptune will conspire to think up cockamamie ideas and Mars, much like the "liquid courage" (booze) we used to consume, will push us to take action on the ideas we come up with.

So in all, it's a day of dreaming, but it's also a day putting those dreams into action. In most cases, this will work out to be beneficial, but you do want to watch out for "the guy who takes things too far", because that potential is definitely out there today too. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Pisces

Putting others' needs above your own is the way to go, but you also have to realize that it will be easier for you to visualize what they need as opposed to what you need. There's also a tendency to relive past events over again in your mind. Just keep in mind that your memories probably aren't going to exactly conform to what actually happened before; you don't want this to cause you to mentally change history. Be on the lookout for second chances that pop up as well, as you can make the proper adjustments and improve on the outcomes you've experienced before.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

There is something formlessly created
Born before Heaven and Earth
So silent! So ethereal!
Independent and changeless
Circulating and ceaseless
It can be regarded as the mother of the world

I do not know its name
Identifying it, I call it "Tao"
Forced to describe it, I call it great
Great means passing
Passing means receding
Receding means returning
Therefore the Tao is great
Heaven is great
Earth is great
The sovereign is also great
There are four greats in the universe
And the sovereign occupies one of them
Humans follow the laws of Earth
Earth follows the laws of Heaven
Heaven follows the laws of Tao
Tao follows the laws of nature
