Daily Horoscope for Cancer Summary

The current energy can carry a strong "busy" level with it, where we might feel compelled to be doing something at all times. There can be a lot to get done, but there can also be a fair amount of waiting that goes along with it. What that can lead to is some very strong feelings of anticipation, and that's where things really start.

Given what we're likely to feel inside about what's upcoming (and often the impatience that comes with it), the big thing we're currently trying to work through is in going overboard on trying to make an impact. You can have people rushing things for various reasons (to get them over with, to get other things to happen sooner, etc.). For some, there might be bad attitudes you have to contend with from others who themselves are short on patience. And beyond that, there can be frustration with the current state of what's going on.

The saving grace here is this energy has been building up for a while, and we're going to be seeing a decline over the next couple of days. So it's a weather the storm kind of chart. Don't push too hard or try to speed things along. Be tolerant of others and patient where you can. Hold it together for a few days and things will start to improve on their own. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Cancer

In your interactions with others, you want to be careful you aren't coming on too strong. This energy can inflate your ego a bit too, where you're more likely to try to inject your accomplishments into conversations in places where they really don't flow. if something comes up, it comes up, but you want to be equal part talker and equal part listener. This is especially true with anything work-related, where you want to be sure you're hearing what others need, so you'll be better equipped to help out with that.

...Show some Love...

Today's Astrology Quote of the Day:
The cosmos is a vast living body, of which we are still parts...
The sun is a great heart whose tremors run through our smallest veins...
The moon is a great nerve center from which we quiver forever...
Who knows the power that Saturn has over us, or Venus? But it is a vital power, rippling exquisitely through us all the time...
~ D.H. Lawrence

Daily Tao

Those of ancient times who were adept at the Tao
Used it not to make people brighter
But to keep them simple
The difficulty in governing people
Is due their excessive cleverness
Therefore, using cleverness to govern the state
Is being a thief of the state
Not using cleverness to govern the state
Is being a blessing of the state

Know that these two are both standards
Always knowing these standards
Is called Mystic Virtue
Mystic Virtue: Profound! Far-reaching!
It goes opposite to material things
Then it reaches great congruence
