Daily Horoscope for Taurus Summary

It always seems as though right before you have the ability to really cash in on an opportunity, the universe gives you the chance to bail. It's never overt in the way it does this though; there's always these little tests to your commitment to see if you're going to be willing to follow something major through as far as you can take it.

The current energy is one of those things that fall under that scope of thought. We have the Sun opposite of Jupiter, so you'll see people making some hardheaded decisions out of principle, and they end up shooting themselves in the foot as a result. In your mind, you should be thinking "let's just get to the next step". It's particularly when you're unable to let things go that you're going to run into trouble. Having a sense for when to get past a tough situation rather than "defeat" it is going to be the key. It's those that get so frustrated that they're looking to destroy their barriers that end up making the biggest mistakes. I believe it was Nietzsche who said something along the lines of "Be careful when you look into the abyss, for the abyss also looks back into you."

So overall, the goal is to try and keep things short and sweet. And if not sweet, at least short. Like a boxer, stick and move from one task to the next. If something irritates you, let it go and move on. And don't stick to things out of principle, because that will only get your caught in the muck today. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Taurus

You're going to have a sharp awareness of what other people are up to and this will allow you to work well in some capacity to limit their flaws. What you don't want to do though is make blanket assumptions about people, as this is where you'll get into trouble. You'll have a tendency to think "defense first" in these relationships, and you might preemptively do something that sets others off, when if you gave them an option to show their hand first, you might see it's something you can work with.

...Show some Love...

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

The Tao, eternally nameless
Its simplicity, although imperceptible
Cannot be treated by the world as subservient

If the sovereign can hold on to it
All will follow by themselves
Heaven and Earth, together in harmony
Will rain sweet dew
People will not need to force it; it will adjust by itself

In the beginning, there were names
Names came to exist everywhere
One should know when to stop
Knowing when to stop, thus avoiding danger

The existence of the Tao in the world
Is like streams in the valley into rivers and the ocean
