Daily Horoscope for Taurus Summary

This seems to be an eventful retro cycle already and there can be this feeling inside that many of the things occurring in the present set the stage for something greater in development behind the scenes. There might be some positive developments in the works, but the trouble is that it can be hard to see that in the present. We tend to be more emotional in the day-to-day (and certainly can be today), which often leads us to make more of things than there should be. At the same time, maybe many of the struggles we face now are more indicative of our unhappiness with certain states than we want to say openly. Most things see the light eventually, including the things we grumble about to ourselves or closest companions.

Today's energy can build a discontented view of where we are relative to the things we want. Absence carries a lot of weight and we can dwell upon it here. This can lead to things being said and done that express a lack of appreciation for what we already have. If you can remain humble and patient, this energy isn't so bad. It's when you have this internal "need" for things, particularly those that aren't really necessary, that you tend to have the most problems. Keep plugging away and worry not about what's available in the here and now. This is a weather the storm kind of chart, but it'll pass and what you maintain now will be a boon when it's time to forge ahead once more. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Taurus

The current chart might be a little more expensive than normal, which can have some effects if others are consistently asking you for things. You might have to say no more frequently than you'd like, which can be a hit to your popularity (something you will care about here). But you're also in a position where you might have to make some sacrifices now in order to maintain some of your future dreams as well. If you blow everything here, you might have nothing left for later and those investments can tend to have better rewards attached to them.

...Show some Love...

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
