Daily Horoscope for Cancer Summary

Astrology is all about planning. By concentrating on the energies at play (an antithetical Merc Retro, a disaffected Uranus, a heart stopping T-Square, or a resolute Saturn), we better understand how to use them in our daily lives. The magic behind a Mercury Retrograde is that it will grant you permission to not only make asinine mistakes, but also to correct them the second time around. How does Merc Retro do this? By pointing out what you really suck at. (Yeah, so if you have a fierce sense of pride, Merc Retro will be sure to topple that foundation. Plus, that trait wasn’t serving you well, anyway. There is a reason why Pride was chosen as one of the Seven Deadly Sins.)

Merc Retro gets a bad rap because people feel it suddenly puts their lives at a standstill. But if you have the ability to change perspective and view it from the (ad)vantage point of "start-over," then there is an almost surfeit amount of benefits to reap from a well-placed, well thought out Merc Retro.

Another simple monetary advantage you can gain from Merc Retro is the plethora of deals and opportunities that come along. I'm not too much of shopper. (In fact, I pretty much lead a spartan lifestyle.) Nevertheless, if you've been looking for that perfect piece of furniture to fill the empty corner of the family room, or perhaps you need to get school clothes for the kids --whatever it is, then you can be sure to find some fantastic deals during Merc Retro.

Usually, the deals are outrageous buys that won't make perfect sense in your life. It’s kind of like shopping at one of those wholesale chains of membership warehouses (CostCo. Sam's Club, BJ's, etc.) where for $2.99 you can get three gallons of lard. And of course, you ask yourself, “What am I going to do with three gallons of pig fat?” I don't have the answer to that. Just keep your eyes peeled because you’re bound to come across deals pretty much at any turn -- going out of business sales, eBay, or perhaps that all-too-common government-seized New Jersey mansion? The deal will usually find you, before you find the deal. The problem is you have to decide if you can afford to pass it up. Going once, going twice…

The Daily Horoscope for Cancer

You feel like scrambled eggs in the morning: all mixed up and mostly likely won't make it past 9AM before someone gobbles you up. That's ok. Such is life. What matters is how you maneuver. Because you're a Cancer, you're expected to battle through the chaos with some grace, sophistication, and levelheadedness. You have a leg up on the situation. On some level, you've done this all before. Use that intuition to recall what worked and what didn't. Rely on your instincts to get you through the day.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

In using the military, there is a saying:
I dare not be the host, but prefer to be the guest
I dare not advance an inch, but prefer to withdraw a foot

This is called marching in formation without formation
Raising arms without arms
Grappling enemies without enemies
Holding weapons without weapons
There is no greater disaster than to underestimate the enemy
Underestimating the enemy almost made me lose my treasures

So when evenly matched armies meet
The side that is compassionate shall win
