it’s friday, december 18, & moon is in the starspace called dhanishtha, which is the starry bridge connecting the energies of capricorn & aquarius. moon is in capricorn until this evening, so we’ve got another day to get practical, be realistic, create an action plan. this weekend will be all aquarius all the time, our world will expand from the small & personal (capricorn) to the large & public (aquarius), maybe even global. aquarius invites us to serve the world, to be generous for the sake of the greater good.
dhanishtha is related to feeling wealthy based on what we value. in the united states, a lot of value is placed on material wealth, our value is measured by, we measure our value by, how much stuff we have, how big our house is, how new our car is, whether we’re wearing the latest yoga fashion, etc. but true, lasting value comes from what can’t be quantified. as wayne muller writes in his book “sabbath”:
“how do we count friendship or laughter? how do we count the value of honesty, or bread from the oven? how can we count the sunrise, the trusting clasp of a child’s hand, a melody, a tear, a lover’s touch? …
“at rest, we can take deeper measure of our true wealth. if we do not rest … we will become more impoverished than we will ever know.”
one definition of yoga is “the state of not wanting,” knowing you’ve got enough, that you are enough, that you are truly wealthy. do you know that yet?
it’s the fifth phase of the waxing moon, which supports healing routines. how serendipitous that i’m going for acupuncture today! how about you? what heals you? how can you heal yourself today?
venus rules friday, so friday is the perfect day to be in the flow of venus, which means feeling the beauty, being the beauty, sharing the beauty however it manifests—in art, in nature, in food, in sex, in music. venus is definitely of this world; we experience venus through our senses & through our heart. connect the dots (ie, what taste, touch or smell makes your heart sing?) & enjoy!
& 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.
