Daily Horoscope for Cancer Summary

This seems to be an eventful retro cycle already and there can be this feeling inside that many of the things occurring in the present set the stage for something greater in development behind the scenes. There might be some positive developments in the works, but the trouble is that it can be hard to see that in the present. We tend to be more emotional in the day-to-day (and certainly can be today), which often leads us to make more of things than there should be. At the same time, maybe many of the struggles we face now are more indicative of our unhappiness with certain states than we want to say openly. Most things see the light eventually, including the things we grumble about to ourselves or closest companions.

Today's energy can build a discontented view of where we are relative to the things we want. Absence carries a lot of weight and we can dwell upon it here. This can lead to things being said and done that express a lack of appreciation for what we already have. If you can remain humble and patient, this energy isn't so bad. It's when you have this internal "need" for things, particularly those that aren't really necessary, that you tend to have the most problems. Keep plugging away and worry not about what's available in the here and now. This is a weather the storm kind of chart, but it'll pass and what you maintain now will be a boon when it's time to forge ahead once more. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Cancer

While you may strive for more order and organization today, it can be hard to come by with all of the unexpected developments that tend to sprout up in a chart like this. That might lead to this mindset that you're doomed to all of the things that you can't control. While these things can impact you, it's not like you'll be fully stripped of control, as long as you don't give up that control yourself. You might have to come up with inventive solutions to problems, at a time when you're mentally pressed to begin with, but it's not impossible to do that (or at a minimum, something). Even making attempts at things is better than standing by watching what will happen if you don't.

Daily Tao

A strong military, a tool of misfortune
All things detest it
Therefore, those who possess the Tao avoid it
Honorable gentlemen, while at home, value the left
When deploying the military, value the right

The military is a tool of misfortune
Not the tool of honorable gentlemen
When using it out of necessity
Calm detachment should be above all
Victorious but without glory
Those who glorify
Are delighting in the killing
Those who delight in killing
Cannot achieve their ambitions upon the world

Auspicious events favor the left
Inauspicious events favor the right
The lieutenant general is positioned to the left
The major general is positioned to the right
We say that they are treated as if in a funeral
Those who have been killed
Should be mourned with sadness
Victory in war should be treated as a funeral
