it’s tuesday, april 28, & moon is in the starspace called ardra until early afternoon, then moves into punarvasu. ardra occupies a sky-slice of gemini; punarvasu occupies a sky-slice that’s mostly in gemini but with a sliver in cancer. moon isn’t going to move into that cancerian sliver until tomorrow morning, so our consciousness is still most definitely in a gemini state of mind all day today. Gemini creates an atmosphere of curiosity & creativity & trying to understand how things work & of playing well with others in the process.
ardra (see yesterday’s post for more) brings storm energy, brings transformation through destruction, & tears are often shed in the process. we’re all doing a lot of crying now, for reasons we know & reasons we don’t. doesn’t it always feel good after you have a good cry? especially if there’s someone to comfort you, whether live or virtually? punarvasu brings that comfort, surrounds us with the principle of the divine feminine, the universal mother—all is well, we are loved unconditionally; love will heal our wounds, assuage our hurts & fears, ground us in the present. a lot of our fears now come from not knowing, which is future thinking. we have no idea what the future is going to bring, so best to be here now & be here in a space of love, & shower it on ourselves & others.
it’s the sixth phase of the waxing moon, which has to do with celebrating our victories. of course, we wouldn’t have any victories to celebrate if we didn’t have the courage to step up, face our fears. fear & courage are two sides of the same coin: we find our courage by virtue of necessity when we experience fear. what wins can you celebrate today, big or small? how have you stepped out of your comfort zone lately to honor your authentic self?
tuesday is ruled by mars, who is our expression of courage, our fighting spirit. he’s been hanging out in capricorn lately, where he is exalted, which means he’s acting with utmost intelligence for our highest purpose. if you’ve noticed that i’ve been talking about exalted planets a lot lately, good noticing! many planets are exalted, & we are benefitting. i know things don’t seem so great out there right now, but can you imagine how much worse they would be if saturn, mars, venus & sun (& briefly moon) weren’t feeling their oats?! use the strength of mars within to keep fighting the good fight—inhabit your best warrior self!
& that’s your daily bliss! jyotish, vedic astrology, is the science of light. if you want to shine more light on your life, please contact me for a session! ~.~
