it’s wednesday, june 24, moon is in libra, in the starspace called svātī, it’s the eleventh phase of the waxing moon & mercury’s day.
where your attention is being drawn
libra vibrates with the frequency of our relationships—all of them in all of their myriad permutations—& how we show up in them. how we show up reflects who we are—people are our mirrors. we show up differently with different people, isn’t it?
humans are relational beings, we are meant to connect with others. but/& to truly connect we have to be who we truly are, not who we think we have to be to fit in, to be accepted, to be loved, to get the job promotion, be invited to thanksgiving dinner.
it’s a question of fitting in versus standing out—hiding your true nature versus letting yourself be fully seen.
how do you show up? do you let yourself be fully seen?

how to direct your mental/emotional energy
svātī is ruled by vayu, lord of the winds (internal & external) & hanuman’s dad. svātī wants to initiate activity the way wind fills a sailboat’s sails so it can get going. it wants things, including ideas, to move & flow, to be shared, be sent out into the world, but with focus, not in a scatterbrained, in all-directions-at-once kinda way.
this nakshatra invites us to take a page from hanuman’s book & focus our precious faculties of attention & intention. when hanuman did, he discovered that he could soar over the ocean.
what superpower might you discover within you, what magic might you make, how far might you sail, if you can focus like all get-out?!
what supports your emotional body
the eleventh lunar day (tithi), the eleventh phase of the waxing moon, is ruled by goddess nilapataka, “she who is always falling into the blue.” blue refers to halahala, the poisons that rose to the surface when the ocean was churned a gazillion years ago.
this tithi invites us to churn our own poisons, to sit with & transform them, which is why it’s the best lunar day for spiritual practices like meditation.
how to align with the weekday’s energy
wednesday is ruled by mercury, planet of communication, curiosity & discriminating intelligence. this guy is the ur-google-searcher, loves facts & words, although he’s not crazy about his latest discovery: the neologism privacide, i.e., “the death of privacy,” perhaps coined by thomas drake, a former NSA senior exec who is big on exposing unconstitutional surveillance & is really pissed off (as am i) with the government’s getting its grubby hands on our—yes, yours too!—google searches.
it’s getting scary out there, people! discuss amongst yourselves!

the daily bliss is 100% human generated! the act of creation is intrinsic to being human—when we give up our agency to create, we cease, little by little, to be fully human.
may it allow you to align with the day’s cosmic energy so you can find & create a little (or a lot!) more bliss in your life.
