it’s monday, july 5, & moon is in taurus, in the starspace called krittika. oh, happy day—moon LOVES being in taurus & especially in the krittika portion of it! taurus vibrates with the frequency of happiness—ultimately happiness for no reason, happiness independent of any external cause. but taurus is also a very material sign & creates an environment in which we can use our creature comforts & experiences—dark chocolate that melts in the mouth, the sublime feeling of surrendering into the arms of another—to work our happiness muscle, to feel what that feeling feels like, so that eventually we can feel it without chocolate, without another person.
krittika supports us in removing negativity from our minds. one way to do that is to meditate (see below), quiet our minds. another way to do that is to shift our perspective. easier said than done? not really! sometimes all we have to do is to shake ourselves up, literally, MOVE OUR BODIES—stand up, dance, go for a walk or a run, do some jumping jacks (i suggest a round of 50), rebound on the rebounder, rock the hula hoop (what, you don’t have one?!). what works for you?
it’s the eleventh lunar day, the eleventh phase of the waning moon, which invites us to dive deeper into or recommit to or just commit to practices that facilitate more presence, that allow us to be with what is rather than what was or what might be, that allow us to be open to the experience of each moment, get out of our heads & into our hearts, our feeling nature. meditation, in which we use the mind to get over the mind, is one such practice.
“meditation is just a courage to be silent and alone. slowly, slowly, you start feeling a new quality to yourself, a new aliveness, a new beauty, a new intelligence which is not borrowed from anybody, which is growing within you. It has roots in your existence.” — osho
monday is ruled by the moon, & with moon in its happiest place, it’s an especially good day to feeeeeel pretty darn gooooood, so allow yourself to feeeeeeel into what that feeeeeels like.
& 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.
