daily blissit’s tuesday, august 20, & moon is still in the starspace called revati (see yesterday’s post for more on revati), in pisces, until about 11 am mountain time today, which is when it crosses the divide into ashwini & aries. revati/pisces supports a deeper dive into our emotional-body wisdom, thus creating a profound shift in how we choose to express ourselves in this incarnation. aries brings action steps to realize this newfound awareness, lights a fire in our belly, gives us the confidence to persevere.

the border between revati & ashwini is a hard border; that is, there is no starspace creating a bridge between pisces & revati, providing a smooth segue for the moon as it exits the environment of one zodiac sign & moves into another one. this happens between the other water & fire signs as well—between cancer & leo, between scorpio & sagittarius. when the moon has to get from one place to another without support, we tend to also feel unsupported in our heart-mind, so do mind the gap later this morning.

ashwini is, after the dreamy night-darkness of pisces, the harbinger of the dawn, of a new day, & literally gives us the horsepower to charge ahead—its symbol is the horse. that said, horses represent our senses, desires & creative energy, so the key to harnessing this energy is to, um, harness it, to make sure that your team is firmly under your control, that you’re holding the reins & know where you want to go.

it’s the fifth phase of the waning moon, which is a good day for getting with your healing routines—if you’ve been slacking off in your meditation practice, or eating foods you know you shouldn’t, or not getting enough time in nature, you might think about flipping the switch & start re-choosing what ultimately nourishes you the most.

tuesday is owned by mars, who wants to exert his personal will, establish the boundaries of his power. he’s combust right now, being purified by his proximity to the sun, which means this is a good time for us to question how we exert our power in the world, whether our boundaries are working for us or against us.

& that’s your daily bliss! jyotish, vedic astrology, is the science of light. if you want to shine more light on your life, contact me for a session! ~.~
