it’s wednesday, january 31, & moon is in virgo for one more day, in the starspace called hasta until midday, then chitra. the energy of virgo is tamasic—that is, it is protective b/c it is a little fearful, it worries about what might be. the upside is that it’s proactive—it invites us to take care of the details of our life so chaos doesn’t ensue. it’s where we balance our checkbook to we make sure we’ve got money to pay our bills, where we sign up for pilates or hire a trainer at the gym to keep fit, where we do food prep on the weekends so we can eat healthfully during the week, aren’t tempted to fast-food it. it’s where we try to control what we can, which, yeah, in reality isn’t much, but cleaning out the freezer, as i did yesterday, creating some order, even for those of us who do not like to sweat mundane details, does yield a sense of calm—& it sure does help for the froze blueberries to be easily accessible for morning smoothies.
both hasta (see yesterday’s post for more) & chitra are related to creativity & both in both a practical & inspired way—hasta by being a vehicle, chitra by imagining into manifestation objects that are both useful & beautiful.
“to be creative means to be in love with life. you can be creative only if you love life enough that you want to enhance its beauty, you want to bring a little more music to it, a little more poetry to it, a little more dance to it.”—osho
how can you enhance your life today, make your world a more beautiful world?
it’s the sixth lunar day (tithi), the sixth phase of the waning moon, which gives us the confidence to build something from our dreams (hello, chitra!). confidence is said to be better than perfectionism, b/c we know from yesterday’s post that perfectionism can paralyze us, while confidence lets us see the thing through, gives us the ability to handle whatever the outcome—fame or failure. &, hey, the quality of this tithi is yasha, “fame.” so what’s stopping you?
wednesday is ruled by mercury, planet of communication & discriminating intelligence—or maybe it should be the other way around, b/c we want to make sure we’ve discriminated before we communicate.
& 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.
