Daily Horoscope for Scorpio Summary

Patience is a virtue, and lately, it's needed to be more on hand than normal given Mars' recent conflicts with other planets. Today takes that up a notch as it opposes the Sun. People are going to want things right away, but can go through totally self-defeating ways of trying to come about them. It's energy that spurs action, but it's largely misguided action. All of the well wishing in the world can't replace a good plan.

So the key for today is to slow things down a little bit and see what your actions are really doing. The more you try to rush through things, the more you're going to find it difficult to get them done in the first place. Look at what you're doing with some scrutiny. If there's areas you can improve, even if just a little, make sure to try new things out. Don't be so set in doing things a certain way.

Beyond this, we still have all of the retrograde energy going on, with Mercury about to go retro as well. This is a call to look inside and see how your own actions are influencing the world around you. Too often people want to blame external forces when really the one controlling how things turnout is themselves. Embrace the power you have to make positive change and do what you can do to move closer to your goals. It's probably going to take a bit of work, and there might be some frustration today, but once you get through tough spots, everything else seems a bit easier. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Scorpio

You might have some struggles today with things that grow too big for you to handle. Knowing when you have to fall back on others for help is a key, but it's not something you should do just to bail you out of something difficult. There are times and places for getting others' assistance and knowing when something is out of your control is one of them. Additionally, as a lot of these issues can be related to scaling, it might be a good time to try and slow progress in certain areas so that you can keep up with the progression.

Today's Astrology Quote of the Day:
Failure or success seem to have been allotted to men by their stars...
But they retain the power of wriggling, of fighting with their star or against it, and in the whole universe the only really interesting movement is this wriggle...
~ E.M. Forster

Daily Tao

Those that attained oneness since ancient times:
The sky attained oneness and thus clarity
The earth attained oneness and thus tranquility
The gods attained oneness and thus divinity
The valley attained oneness and thus abundance
The myriad things attained oneness and thus life
The rulers attained oneness and became the standard for the world
These all emerged from oneness

The sky, lacking clarity, would break apart
The earth, lacking tranquility, would erupt
The gods, lacking divinity, would vanish
The valley, lacking abundance, would wither
Myriad things, lacking life, would be extinct
The rulers, lacking standard, would be toppled

Therefore, the honored uses the lowly as basis
The higher uses the lower as foundation
Thus the rulers call themselves alone, bereft, and unworthy
Is this not using the lowly as basis? Is it not so?
Therefore, the ultimate honor is no honor

Do not wish to be shiny like jade
Be dull like rocks
