it’s monday, february 6, & moon is in leo, in the starspace called magha. while cancer, where moon was all weekend, vibrates with the frequency of the divine feminine, leo vibrates with that of the divine masculine. leo is the king to cancer’s queen, shiva to her shakti, the sun to her moon, the yang to her yin. together they create balance. like a perfect partnership they bring out the best, the highest, in each other, allow the pure unfoldment of the other’s energy. a king is not a king without a queen. shiva is inert without shakti. as the saundarya lahari (attributed to sri shankaracarya) says: “shiva, when united with shakti, has the power to manifest. if not thus, that mighty god himself is not able to stir.” a righteous king knows where his power comes from!
magha is ruled by the pitris, our ancestors, & brings a lesson about what of theirs we carry forward & choose to carry forward, & about picking up & moving on from where they left off.
“[we] are not [out] ancestor’s pain but [we] are [our] ancestor’s healing.”—rossanita, the warmi spirit
when we heal ourselves, we heal our lineage, plain & simple.
it’s the first lunar day, the first phase of the waning moon, which means we had a full moon yesterday, & it happened to be in cancer, in the starspace called ashlesha. cancer creates an environment of unconditional, selfless love, which is a gorgeous space to flow in, b/c love is our true nature & it feels good AF to be in the flow of love, doesn’t i? & while everyone is lovable, is worthy of love, not everyone is worthy of our selfless, infinitely giving love. ashlesha brought our focus to our emotional attachments, to what we are clinging to, & invited us to examine whether the ones we love & are holding tightly in our hearts, are, indeed, worthy of it, are bringing us closer to the light or not. our moon work for the waning cycle is to release the one or ones who need to go. in the end that kindness for us is a kindness for them.
monday is ruled by the moon, who also rules cancer, & so it’s another day of feeeeeeeling & of trusting the wisdom of what we feel & what we felt yesterday, which in all likelihood is still lingering, like the pots & pans & dishes left in the kitchen overnight after a dinner party.
& 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. may it inspire you to enlighten up a little more each day.
