it’s thursday, february 3, & moon is in aquarius, in the starspace called purvabhadra. in the environment of aquarius, we are reminded that we are, ultimately, all one, all one organism, & by all, i don’t just mean all of us humans, i mean all the beings inhabiting the earth in whatever form they take—animal, mineral. vegetable, spirit—that we are all interconnected, interdependent, each of our individual actions impacts the whole. we are a one-tree aspen forest. pando is perhaps the largest organism on earth, a “one-tree forest” of aspens in utah that has more than 47,000 trunks but one root system. we are all aspens, are all pando. can you feel how we are all rooted to one another? how would you act if you really did?

purvabhadra brings the lesson that truth/inspiration strikes like a flash of lightning, which is easy to miss if we aren’t paying attention, aren’t ready to receive.

but come, my friends, as we stand here mourning, do you see the lightning?
see its glittering, like the flash of two moving hands, amid the thick gathering clouds.
its glory shines like the lamps of a monk when he has dipped their wicks thick in oil.
i sat down with my companions & watched the lightning & the coming storm.
                                                                                                                     —imru’ ad-qays

who or what’s distracting you from receiving the flash of insight, & acting on it?

it’s the third lunar day, the third phase of the waxing moon, so we get to be flexible today, pivot, change course if need be, & use our words to make sure everyone is on the same page when we do. 

thursday is owned by jupiter, planet of hope & inspiration—the hope & inspiration to create & live the best life possible. jupiter is the guru who brings teachings that allow us to uplevel, upgrade our life, bring it into higher & higher & eventually highest alignment with the divine, with our divine purpose. what is the most beautiful world you could imagine? what is stopping you from creating that? what steps can you take to move you toward that ideal? imagine what we could all create together if each one of us believed, allowed our inspiration to guide us, hewed toward the light!

& 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.

jyotish, vedic astrology, is the science of light. if you want to shine more light on your life, please contact me for a session. ~.~
