it’s wednesday, april 28, & moon is in scorpio, in the starspace called anuradha. scorpio creates an environment in which our emotions build & clash like dark storm clouds—it’s where our fears pound us like thunder, zap us like lightning, & we feel so vulnerable that we want to hide under the bed.
a friend who recently joined a business support/mentoring group returned from a weekend confab saying that she was in way over her head, that everyone else was so much more experienced, that she felt unworthy to be in the group, was convinced she was going to fail to live up to the mark. but did she say she was going to quit, bow out? noooooo, despite her humongous discomfort. b/c she knows that if you’re not uncomfortable, don’t feel vulnerable, you are not growing. scorpio gives us discomfort in spades, & so LOTS of opportunity for growth. mars, who rules scorpio, gives us the courage to face our fears & persevere despite them, to use them as fuel for transformation.
anuradha is ruled by the deity mitra, the best friend you could ever have, & brings the lesson of devotion, just as radha was devoted to krishna, was the best friend he could have had. how can you be your own best friend today, walk beside yourself with love & support? to whom can you be the best friend ever? who needs you to walk beside them with devotion for their well-being?
it’s the second phase of the waning moon, which invites us to tap into our creativity & is connected to krishna, just as anuradha, through radha, is. likewise, there is a sense of devotion—to god, or whatever name you give, if you give it a name, to that mystery that is bigger than we are. what can you create through devotion to that essence? more connection? more ease?
mercury infuses wednesday with its energy, & with mars in mercury’s sign of gemini right now, we can use his fiery focus to uplevel our powers of discriminating intelligence. & of course wednesday is always the best day to deal with mercury stuff—emails, finances, research—without its being a drag.
& 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.
