it’s monday, december 27, & moon is in virgo, in the starspace called hasta. virgo vibrates with the frequency of healing, of attending to details to keep us well, whether that means keeping our personal world in order so that it functions well, or keeping others in order (think doctors & therapists), or keeping the world at large in order, functioning at its highest. so it’s maybe not surprising that, to the best of my knowledge, & the knowledge of my astrology software, virgo is where desmond tutu, who y’all know passed yesterday, had his sun (his soul), mercury (his discriminating intelligence), venus (his love of people & desire for harmony) & ketu (expertise in all things virgo).

he fearlessly fought apartheid in his country, as y’all know, as well as government corruption, autocrats & exploiters/exploitation in general. we can honor his legacy by continuing to do his work in our own countries, healing what ails them. if you think we don’t have apartheid in these here united states, if you think it isn’t being reimagined here, you might want to put your own mercurial powers to work. government corruption? check! autocrats? check!

hasta means “hand” & brings the lesson that it is through the grace of the divine that we are able to make our offerings, actually or metaphorically, through our hands to the world. i’ve seen many hands-on healer-healers—especially reiki practitioners & massage therapists—with a significant planet in this asterism. & this is where desmond tutu, a healer if ever there was one, & very hands-on, if not physically so, had his mercury & sun.

it’s the ninth lunar day, the ninth phase of the waning moon, which can bring challenges in the form of toxic serpent energy. let’s do try to keep any negativity to ourselves & try to transform it, the way a serpent’s venom can be transformed into a healing potion, cause today is all about healing. if we’re thinking negative thoughts, we get to ask ourselves where they are coming from, what they are trying to reveal about our own need for healing. ok?

monday is owned by the moon, & the moon loves to feel, & feel connected. we can feel connected by being for something together or against something together. which do you think brings more joy? is more productive?

& that’s your daily bliss! which is a kind of lunar weather report. may it allow you to align with the day’s cosmic energy so you can find & create a little more bliss. may it inspire you to enlighten up a little more each day.
