Daily Horoscope for Taurus Summary

Monday 5:00 pm: I just found out that Jon Cainer has passed away... It all makes sense to me now after the fact... All weekend long I've been feeling that "tribute" vibe that I wrote about in the weekly scopes... I've also expressed my concerns about that dreaded saturn return... It took out Prince and I have to admit I was worried a bit about it taking me... (gulp)... Anyway... Jon and I go back to what was nearly the start of the internet... when there was only really 3 of us astrologers online... We had our differences on a few things, but he challenged me to take it further... Not to play it safe... I am very sad he is gone and he will be missed.

In some aspects, today’s chart is more of a community one. People are going to have a better sense of where they fit into more global situations, and you’ll see how the things you do individually impact the people around you, and even to some extent, people beyond your immediate frame of mind. Everyone can operate under something of a more public profile, and some can use this to try to make a big jump upwards in reputation and standing.

However, with Mercury retrograde, you’re still going to have some sense that the things you do aren’t going to be accepted by others (which might not be true). It’s these reservations that can create issues, because sometimes you might not feel like going through with things, even though they can work out well for you. It’s one of those opportunities to bail out before you cash in on something.

On a general level, I’m big on the principle of trying things and being okay with failing at them. Failures inspire growth, and the most successful people all have a litany of failures under their belts (which turn into knowledge). So given the energy gives people a chance to bail on things they might fail at, and with Saturn retro (no external impetus pushing you to confront difficult situations), it might be easy to fall back and say that you’ll try to get them next time. It’s not the best move; you should be trying new things and seeing how they turn out. So dig a little deeper, and don’t worry so much about the successes you might not achieve. Worry about not trying for them at all. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Taurus

Sometimes the only thing holding you back is the ability to make a definitive decision and move on with what it might bring. You might have a bunch of options on the table, but you’re never going to get any closer to your goals if you don’t pick one and roll with it. You might be a touch more hesitant to lead others here, but that might be because you’re overvaluing their assistance, and might be afraid for them to walk away. If they bail on you, you can come up with another solution, so don’t be afraid to be a little more aggressive here.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Higher people hear of the Tao
They diligently practice it
Average people hear of the Tao
They sometimes keep it and sometimes lose it
Lower people hear of the Tao
They laugh loudly at it
If they do not laugh, it would not be the Tao

Therefore a proverb has the following:
The clear Tao appears unclear
The advancing Tao appears to retreat
The smooth Tao appears uneven
High virtue appears like a valley
Great integrity appears like disgrace
Encompassing virtue appears insufficient
Building virtue appears inactive
True substance appears inconstant
The great square has no corners
The great vessel is late in completion
The great music is imperceptible in sound
The great image has no form
The Tao is hidden and nameless
Yet it is only the Tao
That excels in giving and completing everything
