Daily Horoscope for Taurus Summary

This energy has a lot of intensity to it, where we can go through these supremely challenging situations right now (ones that generally linger for a while). This often manifests in terms of "the things you want most, you cannot have", so the question is how are you going to deal with that. We can be stubborn about our desires, about the life direction we wish to choose for ourselves, but it all has to stay in line with "the plan". Fighting against that is only a recipe for mental anguish.

When you are in what seems like a no-win situation, you need to accept things for what they are and move on from there. You can see a lot of people playing out the stages of grief here (denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance) when things don't turn out like they hoped. That's because of the level attachment people will feel towards their present goals, where they put the entirety of themselves into it. If something bad happens and things don't work out, people can feel like "there's nothing left". That's about as depressing as it can be. But don't forget that when "there's nothing left", there's nothing tying you down, there's a blank slate. In some respects, there's freedom. And that in itself is the beginning of the next chapter. Best of luck.

The Daily Horoscope for Taurus

This energy can lead to a lot of questions of where you fit into certain situations. You might have some luxuries here, but are they things you're likely to maintain over the long haul? If you have questions on that end, you need to get to work on solving them. The real deal is you're prone to trying to stick things out a little too long right now, rather than getting ahead of the curve with whatever endeavors will come next. This is a time where you should at least be exploring what else is out there.

...Show some Love...

Daily Tao

Those that attained oneness since ancient times:
The sky attained oneness and thus clarity
The earth attained oneness and thus tranquility
The gods attained oneness and thus divinity
The valley attained oneness and thus abundance
The myriad things attained oneness and thus life
The rulers attained oneness and became the standard for the world
These all emerged from oneness

The sky, lacking clarity, would break apart
The earth, lacking tranquility, would erupt
The gods, lacking divinity, would vanish
The valley, lacking abundance, would wither
Myriad things, lacking life, would be extinct
The rulers, lacking standard, would be toppled

Therefore, the honored uses the lowly as basis
The higher uses the lower as foundation
Thus the rulers call themselves alone, bereft, and unworthy
Is this not using the lowly as basis? Is it not so?
Therefore, the ultimate honor is no honor

Do not wish to be shiny like jade
Be dull like rocks
