Today’s Oracle takes us to the Virgo weekly for July 18, 2008.

Anyone who offers themselves in service will sooner or later, at one point or another, feel like a mother with three children vying for her breasts. I suggest you make peace with the concept of ‘being used’. We tend to cast this idea only in the negative. That, to me, suggests some confusion over why we incarnate in the first place. Think of it this way. If everyone showed up on the planet strictly for their own sake, there would be a state of constant anarchy. Nobody would even be able to raise an army; everyone would be too self-absorbed. Some of us come here to serve, and some of us will not be happy until we set out to do our appointed service. Yours indeed involves taking care of people, but lately in a way that is more public than private. At the least, this is the time to be known for what you do.

The Daily Oracle offers a horoscope selected randomly by our Intelligent Archive Oracle program, unique to Planet Waves. It’s also a database of my horoscopes going back to the late 1990s. You can use the Intelligent Archive Oracle to answer questions and give you ideas for how to handle problems and situations you cannot see through. This feature is available to our Galaxy, Backstage and Core Community members. See this link for more information.
