what to know so you can align with today’s energy from a vedic (not western/tropical) astrology point of view: it’s friday, october 2, moon is in gemini, in the starspace called mṛgaśira, it’s the seventh phase of the waning moon & venus’ day.

 

gemini …

… invites us to leave the safe & familiar behind & head into unfamiliar territory—just b/c we can. as the third sign of the natural zodiac, it is associated with third house matters: it’s where we hone our identity, our ego, by discovering what we’re good at & what we like to do (even if we’re not good at it).

gemini gives us an opportunity to expand our skill set, deepen our knowledge base, widen our friend circle by letting curiosity be our guide.

what are you itching to learn/try, whom are you itching to meet, what group are you itching to join?

FYI: curiosity did not kill the cat—satisfaction brought it back!

 

mṛgaśira …

… is the wandering deer who searches endlessly for that je ne sais quoi, that elusive morsel, that will satisfy her desire, her craving, once & for all.

a friend who’s on a glp-1 (a micro dose) shared that it turns off the voice in her head that is always talking about food.

our ultimate search/craving/desire is for soul, not material, satisfaction, for a never-ending experience of bliss, which glp-1’s the eternal voice in our head telling us we need more, want something else, that an itch needs more scratching.

& guess what? we don’t need a pill or injection for that.

 

the seventh lunar day (tithi), …

… the seventh phase of the waning moon, is ruled by goddess shivaduti, aka “the messenger of shiva.” what’s his message: mind, your own business. this tithi gives us steadiness of mind, which is what enabled lord shiva to sit in meditation on mount kailash for longer than we mortals can even comprehend.

it takes surrender & humility to wrest control over our mind, to shed layers of protective ego. if we need help with that, this tithi may supply us with people/situations that bring us metaphorically to our knees (or at least make us bend them).

 

friday …

… is ruled by venus, the planet of our earthly delights & sharing them with others, IN-joying them in company, with the ones we love & care about, the ones who bring us joy, which is why friday is considered vedic date night. even if you prefer to go it alone (as i often do), friday is a good day for good times, for the good things in life—food, music, nature, art, bubble baths, books, movies (if you find an uplifting one, lmk!).

 

🌗🙏✨

 

the daily bliss is 100% human generated! the act of creation is intrinsic to being human—when we give up our agency to create, we cease, little by little, to be fully human.

may it allow you to align with the day’s cosmic energy so you can find & create a little (or a lot!) more bliss in your life.
