Daily Horoscope for Leo Summary

This is going to be one of those days where pulling together the motivation to take care of the things you need to will be much harder. A lot of that stems from the fact that there's going to be other things you'd rather be doing. If you can come up with a rationale to put something off, it's easy to buy into that, though you're setting yourself up for some hectic moments in the aftermath, scrambling to get things done. Aggressively taking care of responsibilities earlier in the day can take a lot of the pressure off later on and it also allows you more time to actually enjoy the things you want to do, as there won't be that cloud hanging over you from the to-do list.

On the relationship end, you and others can have conflicting goals at times, which often can lead to criticism and struggles in getting on to the same page. Here it'll be easier if you can find others with closer alignment to what you're trying to accomplish for yourself. In some instances, you're going to want to "agree to disagree" with certain people, table the discussion, and don't do anything to strain relationships beyond that. There will be better times down the line to try to discuss these things with others and try to reach consensus, so don't feel compelled to force any issues with others today. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Leo

Diving into new subjects can be exciting, but it's also a time where you have to realize where your limits are (especially when you're really new). You want to avoid faking the funk and pretending you have a deeper grasp of something than you do - that's only going to get you thrown into the deep end. Others can be willing to take you under their wing, but it requires you to at least acknowledge they have more knowledge in a subject than you do. This isn't the time to try to elevate your own standing in your mind, as you'll miss out on a lot of learning opportunities if you do.

...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

Nothing in the world is softer or weaker than water
Yet nothing is better at overcoming the hard and strong
This is because nothing can replace it

That the weak overcomes the strong
And the soft overcomes the hard
Everybody in the world knows
But cannot put into practice

Therefore sages say:
The one who accepts the humiliation of the state
Is called its master
The one who accepts the misfortune of the state
Becomes king of the world
The truth seems like the opposite
