it’s friday, august 30, & moon is in cancer, in the starspace called pushya. while the previous sign, gemini, is thinky, cancer is feely. while gemini vibrates with the frequency of intellectual (& physical & creative) curiosity, cancer vibrates with the frequency of emotional connection. gemini invites us to follow our head, cancer to follow our heart. of course, it’s not one or the other, but both &. after we experiment & explore in gemini, cancer’s question for us is, “what really resonates, what do i really love?”
“life is too short to spend it focused on what you do not like & do not want & do not agree with. your expansion is served by creating your life moment by moment from the pieces of what you do like, do want & do resonate with.”—teal swan
pushya means “the nourisher” & is ruled by (yikes, i goofed big-time yesterday—punarvasu is ruled by aditi, the mother of all that is, not brihaspati! don’t know what i was, or, um, wasn’t thinking, but i’m blaming lack of sleep—apologies!) brihaspati, the priest. this asterism is symbolized by the udders of a cow & brings a message about what & how we nourish—just as a cow nourishes its newborn with milk & a priest nourishes with wisdom. what are you trying to grow & are you feeding it the purest food?
it’s the twelfth lunar day (tithi), the twelfth phase of the waning moon, until midafternoon, then the thirteenth, both of which bring accomplishment in their own ways. the twelfth supports us in doing work that we want to last over time, the thirteenth in fulfilling our human desires, doing what we love with the ones we love à la venus.
friday is ruled by venus, who moved into virgo a few days ago & will be hanging out there for another three-ish weeks. venus is debilitated in virgo, which means the planet is challenged to express its best, most intelligent, purest energy. which means we will be too. which means we have a great, good opportunity to rise to the challenge, to work our venus muscle harder, build it up at the planetary gym by focusing on being more diplomatic, more compassionate, more loving rather than more resentful, cause, um, feeling less appreciated than we’d like or than we think we are could be a thing.
& 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.
