Daily Horoscope for Pisces Summary

This week's energy brings us into “Shoot yourself in the foot” territory. Goals might be well-defined, but what good is that if the actions you take continuously oppose what you want in the long run. It's wanting to lose weight and eating two hamburgers at the cookout (guilty). So goals have to become something more than a mental idealization; you have to take steps to make them a reality. This can be even harder right now though because it's going to be easier to get down on yourself, which eventually leads to more counterproductive behavior.

So ask yourself how important things might be. It's easy to fall prey to the allure of certain goals, and sure, dreaming about the way things may be can be a pleasure-filled experience. It's also not real. Most people in positions of success don't wake up one day in an awesome spot; they had to do something of note to get there. But to say you have to work hard to get where you want to be underscores the nature of the transit. More often than not, people here will fail not because they didn't work hard, but because they didn't decide to work hard (and by work hard, I also mean this to encompass other activities that might not entail work, but making the more difficult decision). You don't necessarily have to walk through fire and brimstone to come out ahead right now, but you do have to avoid doing the stupid crap that you don't think about that compounds to make a situation more difficult. Things like procrastination, poor eating habits, failing to properly express your feelings to others, these are all activities that become more prevalent now, and they're really simple to avoid, as long as you make that mental commitment to do them. So be tougher mentally, and don't fall prey to the simple temptations that loom out there for you. And if you want something bad enough, commit to chasing it down, because dreaming isn't going to get you there; only putting yourself out there will. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Pisces

There's the potential to lift yourself up spiritually, but it's going to be harder for you to find a state of higher mind. You can tend to dote on the things going on around you, rather than looking for the thing that links it all together. Try to think in more abstract terms and don't take thing at face value. The clues left from one event in your life can help you get the jump on something in an entirely different area.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Thirty spokes join in one hub
In its emptiness, there is the function of a vehicle
Mix clay to create a container
In its emptiness, there is the function of a container
Cut open doors and windows to create a room
In its emptiness, there is the function of a room

Therefore, that which exists is used to create benefit
That which is empty is used to create functionality
