Daily Horoscope for Cancer Summary

The current chart can tap into questions on your direction, and how much you're willing to keep fighting the status quo. The perception of everything that seems wrong or unjust will be high, but the problem is solutions to such issues often will not be. People are more prone to settling for the simplest answer that makes sense to them, often ignoring different rules and contexts that make something unable to work in a "one size fits all" kind of way.

While the solutions we're looking for seems complex, the way of going about it doesn't have to be. Usually it will simply be obtaining more knowledge, experience and skills. Those things solve a lot of problems on their own. The more nuance and depth you have in a subject, the easier you'll find it to navigate, while others might lag behind. Simplistic arguments will start to make less sense to you as well. If you're lacking in an area, make a commitment to growing in it, and then you won't be. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Cancer

You're going to want to avoid trying to do too many things at once today because the jumble might cause you to not finish anything. You want to bank some completions here, if anything to relieve the mental strain of trying to keep everything you have to do organized. You might also start to see some holes in plans you've concocted, which might be upsetting to a degree, but this would be the time to plug those up. Conversely, if something seems doomed to fail, don't hang on to it out of sheer pride - move on to something else.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Cease learning, no more worries
Respectful response and scornful response
How much is the difference?
Goodness and evil
How much do they differ?
What the people fear, I cannot be unafraid

So desolate! How limitless it is!
The people are excited
As if enjoying a great feast
As if climbing up to the terrace in spring
I alone am quiet and uninvolved
Like an infant not yet smiling
So weary, like having no place to return
The people all have surplus
While I alone seem lacking
I have the heart of a fool indeed – so ignorant!
Ordinary people are bright
I alone am muddled
Ordinary people are scrutinizing
I alone am obtuse
Such tranquility, like the ocean
Such high wind, as if without limits

The people all have goals
And I alone am stubborn and lowly
I alone am different from them
And value the nourishing mother
