Daily Horoscope for Aquarius 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 Aquarius

When you make decisions, you can do so without a willingness to take risks. That's not going to get you very far today, and when you aren't moving forward, you also have this tendency to get a bit down in the dumps. You don't need to be crazy with the decisions that you make, but you do need to expose yourself a little bit in order to broaden the amount of opportunities you'll see. You might have some setbacks and failures, but you can build upon them. The key is to keep a good attitude and continue to try to find things that work.

...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
