Today's Horoscope

Most things in life will cause your brain to battle between emotion and reason. Some people exclusively follow their heads, some exclusively follow their hearts. Often, that doesn't work out so well for either.
Emotional people tend to get hurt and abused. Logical people avoid that, but miss out on a lot of the highs and truly joyous things in life. It's not good to stifle either one, you need to find that delicate balance between the two that lets you have the best of both worlds.
That's not easy to do. In fact, most people find it damn near impossible, so you have anxiety and stress and second guessing. There are instances in life where if you give too little or too much of one or the other in that moment, it might ruin everything you have. It's all done on the fly, like trying to walk a tightrope while doing your taxes, so it's no wonder we fuck it up constantly. In fact, there are times when you achieve that perfect balance, only to have the rules change, and the rope is swept out from under you.
The good news is that there's usually a safety net, and we can get right back up on that tightrope again. Everyone else is dealing with the same balancing act you are, and most people are forgiving because they know what it's like. So we get to go on, letting our heads and our hearts make our lives messy and dangerous, and full of apprehension and regret.
The stars want you to know that you're going to make mistakes, and who can blame you? So don't be so hard on yourself, you're basically programmed to do it. Just try to learn from it, and don't screw up anyone else's life while you try to get yours in balance.
