it’s thursday, april 15, & moon is in taurus, in the starspace called rohini. taurus is where moon is exalted, feels most free to express itself, b/c the earth element of the sign creates a safe, solid container for the wateriness of the luminary, provides enough grounding for moon to be its pure self, which is to feel magnificently & live from that place, connect from that place. so our feeling nature, our emotional body, feels safe here; we trust our intuition, satisfying our heart’s desires; we get out of our heads & allow.

the asterism rohini, which is ruled by brahma, the creator of all that is, brings creative & creatively passionate energy. the story goes that brahma created rohini, who was so charming & enchanting he couldn’t help falling in love with her & pursuing her, at one point even refusing to leave her side. thank goddess, shiva came to the rescue to prevent cosmic incest—rohini was, after all, his daughter! so we get to lean into creating our world today but maybe watch out for inappropriate alliances/attractions?

it’s the fourth lunar day, the fourth phase of the waxing moon, which can bring obstacles, or the perception of obstacles—oi, it’s always our perception. whether we see an obstacle as a roadblock or as an opportunity for growth, as a challenge to meet & overcome, is always up to us.

thursday is owned by jupiter, who is now in aquarius, inspiring hope on a global level, encouraging us to think about the greater good of all, & asking us how our beliefs align with that goal. of course, we each have different ideas of what’s in the best interest of all & have different priorities.

for example, greta thunberg recently compared the pandemic to the climate crisis, saying, “if we humans would actually start treating the climate crisis like a crisis, we could really change things.”

why don’t we? b/c we would have to do more than swallow a pill or stick our arms out for a shot; we’d actually have to DO something, change our behavior, & the majority of humans are loath to do that. but those who can do will & HOPEFULLY set an example for others!

& that’s your daily bliss! which is a kind of lunar weather report. it is my hope that the daily bliss can help you align with the day’s cosmic energy & find a little more bliss; that it inspires you to enlighten up a little more each day.
