it’s thursday, july 1, & moon is in pisces, in the starspace called uttarabhadra. the environment of pisces is the cosmic ocean, in which the drop of me merges into the drop of you & we realize our oneness, our buddha nature, & how it frees us, allows us to surrender into all that is & experience being all that is.

“all know that the drop merges into the ocean but few know that the ocean merges into the drop.” — kabir

uttarabhadra is the counter-asterism to yesterday’s purvabhadra. yesterday we got a flash of insight (well, at least i did!) & it might have been a bit of a shock, maybe hard to accept. today the shock is over & we are able to accept that “aha!” for what it is, the harbinger of transformation & transcendence, with grace & be with the transformation & transcendence, use it to bushwhack the path we are walking so we can move farther forward.

it’s the eighth lunar day, the eighth phase of the waning moon, which supports creativity in alignment with what you value. if you’re not sure what you value, look around you: what is your life filled with? what is the room you are sitting in filled with? where are you sitting as you read this & is that an environment that expresses what you value? try to manifest today with the intention to express your highest values, not just to manifest for the sake of manifesting, not just to put one more something out into the world, but to increase the value of the world. if you are already doing that, good on you—you are setting a (ahem!) valuable example for others.

thursday is ruled by jupiter, who is the guru, our ability to tap into the wisdom that gives us faith & ultimately to know that we are the source of that wisdom, that, as a saint once told krishna das, “your guru is what’s looking through your eyes right now.” alas, it’s a bit of a chicken & egg situation:

without grace, no faith
without faith, no surrender
without the guru, no grace.

today is a good day to increase the quantities of grace, faith & surrender in the special sauce that is each one of us—there can never be enough of those ingredients!

& 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.
