it’s monday, april 19, & moon moves from gemini this morning into cancer this afternoon. the asterism punarvasu holds starspace for moon’s transition from sign to sign, allows it to feel supported, which means our consciousness, our mind, will feel supported. in gemini, the mind is curious & active; in cancer, mind surrenders to the heart & reflects. if, say, like me, you were in an astrology workshop with your teacher all weekend (very gemini), you may go over your notes this morning & then feel into how it all resonates with your sense of internal & intuitive knowing (very cancer) later today, how it lands in your heart, whether what you studied feels good or not.

punarvasu can be translated as the “return” (punar) of the “light” (vasu), the message being one of renewal, of the cyclical nature of life—the sun always comes out again, there is no darkness without light. lord rama was born under this asterism. he lost his kingdom & his wife but regained both. (don’t get me started about whether he really deserved to have sita by his side again!) another message is that whatever we put out today will boomerang back to us, so let’s accentuate the positive!

it’s the seventh lunar day this morning, the eighth this afternoon, bringing more shifting energy midday. indra’s influence this morning invites us to feel into our sovereign nature, our dominion over our world. but we are reminded that dominion entails responsibility, taking care of our world, not taking whatever we can from it. this afternoon, the eight vasus, the universal forces of manifestation, invite us to create, to build, in alignment with our values. the highest expression of dominion, of sovereignty, is to be a support for our world, to value the freedom & happiness, the joy & abundance of all. what can you create from that place of being a stand for all that today?

monday is ruled by the moon, as is cancer, so there is twice as much opportunity to surrender to & trust our heart wisdom, our innate sense of knowing & loving beyond words & labels & conditions, to be loving awareness & acceptance.

& 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.
