daily blissit’s sunday, august 25, & moon is in gemini in the starspace called mrigashira. mrigashira straddles taurus & gemini, creating a starry bridge of consciousness between the sensual, pleasure-seeking nature of taurus & the intellectual curiosity of gemini.

mrigashira is the wandering deer, the deer who is in search, searching to satisfy its desires, who confuses earthly & spiritual desires, who doesn’t realize just yet that what it is searching for can’t be found in the material world, who thinks its longing can be satisfied, that void can be filled, with the delights of the senses—with food & art & sex & wine & good times. nothing wrong with a party, but. … once that deer wanders into gemini, it begins to use its intellectual acumen to seek answers. of course, sorry to say, but you know this (!), we can gather information with our brain, but we’re never going to find the answers we seek with it. gotta have heart! that doesn’t mean this isn’t a good day to read & study & exercise your gray matter, build some new synapses.

today is the tenth phase of the waning moon, which has to do with how we handle the responsibility of living our soul’s purpose, which is, ya know, what we’re here for. so use your brain to strategize some action steps that deepen your alignment with your authenticity & then drop into your heart to see if they feel right.

sunday is ruled by the sun, whose fire power helps us burn through whatever is clouding our vision, clarify how we are moving through this life, keeps us in right alignment, helps us recharge & reorient for the week ahead. sunday is also a great good day to feel into your physical power, maybe get out in nature & flex your muscles, but if, like me, yesterday was a travel day for you & you got home late & schlepped your way-heavy bag all the way home from the transit station, you may want to lie low, do some yin yoga, get with your myofascial-release balls & slowly recharge your soul(ar) battery.

& 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! ~.~
