Daily Horoscope for Taurus Summary

We're fading out of some pretty significant aspects right now, while nothing else will intensify for a couple of days still. So this is a bit of a lull astrologically. Still, the Sun and the Node are hooked up in a way that can complicate things for the next few days.

In a way it's similar to the Mercury and Venus connections to the Node a few weeks back. Things that you were adamant you wanted had suddenly lost some of their appeal, almost as though the universe is giving you an escape route to back out of some things you've pursued vehemently to this point. This energy works in a similar manner. Rosy views of situations become a lot more real. You can also wonder if the time and effort required for long term goals is really worth the pay off. This is also a time where "emerging" options might conflict with things you've been trying to do for quite some time now.

And yet... when the Node is conflicted, it's usually a pretty big testing ground for all of us. Those "emerging" options can wind up being hollow, providing just enough temptation to get us to abandon our paths. If we balk at the difficulty we come across here, how would we respond when things legitimately got tough? The truth of the matter is that if you really want something (or to really head somewhere), you need to step it up here. A ton of people will find some way to back down, because that's the path of least resistance. But if you can embrace the challenges that come today, you can set a firm foundation looking forward. There's a lot of potential out there, but you need to be at your best to cash in on any of it. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Taurus

Conflicting information can be the worst. At times here today you'll have to deal with processes (usually work type stuff) where you've been educated to do things one way, and someone else wants you to do things a different way, one you're not terribly familiar with. Not to mention the fact that your work can be closely scrutinized as well. For today, you are better off thinking of things with the end result in mind. This means doing things the new way if you think you can manage, but reverting to old ones if you know you can't handle the new methods.

...Show some Love...

Today's Astrology Quote of the Day:
We are born at a given moment, in a given place and, like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and of the season of which we are born...
Astrology does not lay claim to anything more...

Daily Tao

Those who are on tiptoes cannot stand
Those who straddle cannot walk
Those who flaunt themselves are not clear
Those who presume themselves are not distinguished
Those who praise themselves have no merit
Those who boast about themselves do not last

Those with the Tao call such things leftover food or tumors
They despise them
Thus, those who possesses the Tao do not engage in them
