it’s friday, february 2, & moon is in libra, in the starspace called swati. libra is represented by scales—not scales of justice, but the kind of scales once used by merchants to weigh goods & the money paid for them, to make sure the exchange was equitable. libra is sociable, is about the people we interact with, are in relationship with; it creates an environment in which our goal is to get as good as we give, in which our relationships—whether business, romantic, platonic, familial, fleeting or forever—are equitable, not weighted toward one person. it’s where we get to maintain our boundaries, make sure we don’t lose our sense of self, overcompromise to make others happy at the expense of our own happy. remember: everyone deserves to be happy!
“agreeing to things just to keep the peace is actually a trauma response. when you do this, you’re disrespecting your boundaries. no more making yourself uncomfortable for others to feel comfortable. you have control now. you run your life. take up space & use your voice.”—dj love light
swati is ruled by vayu, god of the winds, who was hanuman’s dad. through his devotion to rama, hanuman was able to focus his inner winds, his prana, to such an extent that he was able to leap, in one bound, from the tip of india to lanka, to rescue rama’s beloved, sita. what might you accomplish today by focusing your prana, your precious faculties of attention & intention? what are you devoted to?
it’s the eighth lunar day (tithi), the eighth phase of the waning moon, which means we’re at the halfway point in the lunar cycle, when the moon is equally balanced between light & dark. our invitation, & what will support us today, is to reflect on our ability to hold both darkness & light simultaneously, to not reject/ignore or desire one for the sake of the other, to be able to be with our comfort & our discomfort. we are complex, we contain multitudes. we can’t know light without darkness. can you see how the one informs the other, how each part of us is essential?
friday is ruled by venus, planet of our earthly pleasures, as is libra, so it’s a double-good day to do the things that bring us pleasure with the ones who do. in-joy!
& 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.
