it’s friday, july 10, & moon is in the starspace called purvabhadra. purvabhadra straddles aquarius & pisces & moon will be moving into the pisces portion later this morning. so we will be feeling the transition from that aquarian energy of connectivity to the world & thus the desire to improve the world around us to a connection to all that is beyond this world. knowing that there is more than meets the eye, or other sense organs, can give us greater perspective on how to move through the material world or it can make us want to check out, escape, through all the usual channels—drugs & alcohol, binge-watching netflix, sex, food. there’s a difference between having a timeout & avoiding reality completely.
purvabhadra occupies the same sky-space as the constellation pegasus, the winged horse that the greek hero bellerophon rode to defeat the chimera. chimeras are fantasies, figments of the imagination, false notions, illusions & delusions. in purvabhadra we gradually begin to realize our true nature and rid ourselves of the ego’s delusions, its attempts to keep us from knowing that truth. why would it want to do that? b/c the ego is whack! it fears total annihilation. which, really, isn’t going to happen anytime soon for most of us.
it’s the sixth lunar day, which is associated with shiva’s youngest son, kartikeya, the great general. it’s a good day to celebrate your victories, but you may have to fight a battle or two first. with the moon hanging out with mars in pisces right now, those battles are surely of a spiritual nature—time to give up the fight against thinking you are just an earthling!
friday is venus’ day, & with venus at home in taurus, the sign of creature comforts, today is an especially good day to enjoy them, to delight in your existence as an earthling, even while knowing you are more than that, b/c you are also that. eat, drink (a little, if you want) & be merry with the ones your love, but do it safely.
& that’s your daily bliss! which is a kind of lunar weather report. the moon is our consciousness & i hope that by unpacking the cosmic forces influencing it every day, you’ll be better able to understand & thus lean into its ever-changing vibrations & use them to your advantage.
