Daily Horoscope for Cancer Summary

When things get rough, the energy can give us a little nudge to let us know it's around. I realized that a bit with the Mercury retro chaos which slowed down a couple of projects I was working on, in addition to messing with my e-mail all day. Madness. But, as the old man alluded to yesterday, much of the reason for the issues laid at my feet. You'll notice the same thing in your own life. You might want to cast blame for things, and others can certainly bungle their ends of bargains, but there is probably something you could have done in order to make things run more smoothly.

This is going to be a constant for the next three to four weeks though, so adapt and move on. Be smarter about your decisions. Factor in back up plans. Stay in constant touch with people around you. Preparedness helps keep you out of trouble and it usually only requires a minimal extra effort.

On the flip side, Mars connects with Neptune and Jupiter and Venus also connect today, which is going to keep people off-balance for the most part. The Mars-Neptune energy builds up our hopes. The Venus-Jupiter energy makes it hard for things we want most (usually money or romance related) to come to fruition. There's an up and down that occurs, starting within the mind and extending to the physical plane, where the actions you encounter don't match up with the way you had them mapped out in your head. So be pretty careful here. You can brim with motivation and it's an excellent time to start something new with structural or protective benefits. At the same time, don't put so much stock in your wants; time will show that if you don't get what you were looking for here, chances are it wasn't quite what you expected it to be anyway. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Cancer

This energy strikes you in an odd manner because you can be overly empathetic with others, to the point where you might start feeling oddly in tune with the things they're feeling. Of course, this cedes control of how you feel and makes it more dependent on others who might not handle things as well as you do. It's nice to be compassionate about people going through hard times, but you might need to show a little tough love and a little foresight to help them get moving on a solid path again.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

The highest goodness resembles water
Water greatly benefits myriad things without contention
It stays in places that people dislike
Therefore it is similar to the Tao

Dwelling with the right location
Feeling with great depth
Giving with great kindness
Speaking with great integrity
Governing with great administration
Handling with great capability
Moving with great timing

Because it does not contend
It is therefore beyond reproach
