it’s wednesday, february 17, & moon is in aries, in the starspace called ashwini till late morning, then bharani. aries incites our passion & excitement to start something new & to move courageously in the world, to charge ahead. there’s nothing like feeling passionate about something, feeling that fire lit beneath us, but we want to make sure that the sparks don’t fly indiscriminately, that we don’t inadvertently burn something down that we didn’t mean to. our mission is to create a safe container for that fire so no one or nothing gets accidentally singed. or at least pack a fire extinguisher!
bharani (see yesterday’s post for ashwini) comes from the sanskrit verbal root भृ (bhṛ), to bear, which evokes bearing children—the ultimate act of creation—& also bearing the consequences of our actions, like the ones we initiated yesterday as we started another journey around the zodiac in aries, or might initiate today under the sway of that same energy. of course, bearing children, creating them & bringing them into the world, has consequences—a lifetime of them!
it’s the sixth lunar day, the sixth phase of the waxing moon, which invites us to celebrate our victories. i’m gonna say that we shouldn’t need an invitation to celebrate our victories—& since “should” is a judgment word, that we “get” to allow ourselves, encourage ourselves, to do so every single day. every step forward, regardless of how big or small, everything we get “right,” sets the stage to get more & more & more “right,” to get closer to sublimely embodying our authenticity. celebrate yo’self today!
wednesday is ruled by mercury, who loves to frolic in the realm of knowledge & communication. with mercury retrograde now we are supported in examining how we communicate, in brushing up on our communication skills, b/c, as warren buffet recently noted, communication is the key to wealth, & even tho he was talking material wealth, we all know that true wealth, while being valued as much as gold is not about how much actual gold (or bitcoin or dollars) we’ve accumulated.
& 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.
