Daily Horoscope for Cancer Summary

A ton of stuff is happening in the chart today, which can mean a little more activity in different areas of life. Mercury is starting its Aquarius phase, which is going to increase the extent to which we'll think about others and improving the world around us. This is also going to warm up some areas of conversation (making us more social), but all increased sociability isn't good sociability. There can be an added sense of urgency regarding our wants and ideals, one that perhaps isn't always necessary, and it's this that can at times negatively impact our dealings with others. So downplay the "now" factor you might be experiencing in your mind.

This isn't made any easier by the Sun and Mars hanging out together, as this aspect will have people wanting to take care of things right away. Still, this can also serve to get people up off the couch and out doing what they need to do in order to progress.

And then we've also got Venus on the fated degree of Sagittarius. Interactions are going to pack more punch and there can be an increase in "touching base" with others. It will be important to us to know those around us are doing okay, even if we can't quite manage the time to hang out for prolonged periods.

All of this can make for some hectic action, except with Saturn retro, there's going to be that lingering sense within everybody that sitting around and doing nothing at all is the best idea (which sounds even more tempting with the winter storms swirling).

Breaking it all down, there can be increased contact with others, which can occasionally run into more passionate territory whenever there's a clash of wants. The baseline desire can be to veg out, but when we do work, it will tend to be in intense, brief spurts (like bringing all of the groceries into the house in one trip). It's going to be a day where we can be productive if we want to be, and where we can let things lag as well. That choice is up to you. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Cancer

The emotional intensity is going to be there today, especially when you don't get what you want; others might want to watch out. Early in the day you'll be able to use this to your benefit, as you might be so passionate (or pissed) about things that taking action is the only way for you to really get beyond the emotional side of things. As the day wears on though, this will level off a good bit and you might lack the venues to get this energy out. At this point, you have to be careful that you don't allow your feelings to jade what you're actually seeing right there in front of you.

...Show some Love...

Today's Astrology Quote of the Day:
The soul of the newly born baby is marked for life by the pattern of the stars at the moment it comes into the world, unconsciously remembers it, and remains sensitive to the return of configurations of a similar kind...

Daily Tao

Attain the ultimate emptiness
Hold on to the truest tranquility
The myriad things are all active
I therefore watch their return

Everything flourishes; each returns to its root
Returning to the root is called tranquility
Tranquility is called returning to one's nature
Returning to one's nature is called constancy
Knowing constancy is called clarity

Not knowing constancy, one recklessly causes trouble
Knowing constancy is acceptance
Acceptance is impartiality
Impartiality is sovereign
Sovereign is Heaven
Heaven is Tao
Tao is eternal
The self is no more, without danger
