it’s monday, december 4, & moon is in leo, in the starspace called magha. leo vibrates with the frequency of the divine masculine, the power of leadership, of benevolent, not selfish, self-aggrandizing, leadership. leo’s highest, most intelligent expression is kind not cruel. “unlimited power in the hands of limited people always leads to cruelty,” said aleksandr solzenitsyn. leo shines equally & generously, unlimitedly, in all directions, does not hoard his rays for himself, limit his light to an equally greedy, sycophantic cohort. in the environment of leo, we all get to feel into our leadership qualities, our abilities to take responsibility for our worlds, big & small, shine our light on those around us.
magha means “mighty” & is ruled by the pitris, our ancestors, who, speaking of power, bless us with the power to see what is beyond this world. it is our ancestors who give us our might, who cleared & paved the road we have walked thus far, bushwhacked a path for us so that our lives might be easier than theirs, so that we might be mightier. it’s a good day to honor our ancestors & the wisdom they passed down, to take pride in who they were rather than be judgy about all that they weren’t, couldn’t be. they did their best! acceptance is healing.
it’s the seventh lunar day (tithi), the seventh day of the waning moon, which gives us steadiness, courage & self-command. it also teaches us the value of surrender & humility by keeping our ego in check. we get to find a balance between being enough but not too much, between stepping into our power, being fully independent & autonomous, owning who we be & making sure we’re not lording it over others in the process. on the flipside, we get to make sure we don’t become so humble that we let everyone else overshadow us! hmmm. …
monday is ruled by the moon, our feeling nature. what we feel is informed by what we think & our actions are informed by what we feel. what we feel is based on our perceptions—of, say, someone else’s words or actions, a situation. especially when “negative” emotions—jealousy, frustration, fear, anxiety—arise, it’s helpful to get underneath the emotion to the thought/idea responsible for it, so that rather than act unconsciously, we can act responsibly, with self-awareness.
& that’s your daily bliss! which is a sort 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.
