it’s tuesday, february 9, & moon is in capricorn, in the starspace called uttarashadha. capricorn is where we get serious about our life, where we feel the pressure to get real, be disciplined about prioritizing & focusing. & with all the planets except mars & the nodes hanging out in that sign now & with sun & moon ruling one sign/house & the other planets two, that means we are feeling a whole lotta pressure in virtually every area of our lives—yikes! it’s helpful to think of that pressure (time is running out!) as a way of directing our attention so we can bring more clarity to, so we can hone, some aspect of our lives. it’s helpful to think of that pressure like the pressure that creates diamonds (but guess what? diamonds do not come from coal—who knew?!), to remember that the universe just wants us to shine as brightly as we can, fulfill our soul’s purpose. what area of life is screaming for your attention right now & what are you being asked to look at, resolve, evolve?
uttarashadha is the counterpart to yesterday’s purvashadha. if we translate purvashadha as “that which cannot be suppressed,” we can translate uttarashadha as “that which really can’t be suppressed.” in purva we get a glimpse of what we are being called to bring forth; in uttara it takes root in our psyche & there is no way we can deny bringing it forth.
it’s the thirteenth phase of the waning moon, which is connected to kamadeva, the hindu cupid, until about midday, then the fourteenth, which is connected to kali, that fierce aspect of the divine feminine. get as much pleasure, especially with loved ones, this morning & be prepared to start letting go of what doesn’t serve in the afternoon in preparation for the new moon. mind may be feeling drained, but kali takes no prisoners—you can do this!
mars rules tuesday, so tuesday is always a good day to be in your body & act in the world, own who you are.
& 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.
