it’s thursday, june 11, & moon is in the starspace called shatabhishak, which occupies a sky-slice of aquarius. so we’re still feeling into that unitive experience of we are all one, we are all connected & we can each make a difference & we want to make a difference. which in some ways is pretty easy right now—i mean if your email box isn’t full of opportunities to donate to various organizations, if your fb feed isn’t chockablock with interviews to watch & articles to read, & you need some guidance, let me know & i’ll be glad to forward you some of mine!
shatabhishak means “100 doctors/healers,” but—b/c sanskrit can be so inscrutable, b/c there is never just one meaning, b/c it depends on context, b/c the rishis (seers/sages) who gave us the language wanted us to sit with it, meditate on it—it can also mean the opposite. it does seem like the medicine we’re being asked to swallow right now, the medicine that is going to eventually cure the ills of society, is the opposite of medicine, but that’s how vaccines & homeopathy work.
it’s the seventh phase of the waning moon, which is associated with lord indra, the king of the gods. kings & gods get to go where they want without restriction, they get to move about their realm as they please. you are the ruler of your realm & get to do the same today. just make sure you don’t do so recklessly, thinking you’re immortal—i mean, even indra was brought down by thinking he was above it all.
it’s thursday, jupiter’s day. jupiter is the guru. the guru is the one who removes (ru) our goo (gu), our darkness, who guides us on our path to seeing the truth of our existence. who-what-when-where-how can you shine a little more light on your authentic beingness today? it could be by connecting to your teacher, if you have one, or a teaching. maybe a poem brings illumination. whatever or whoever it is, sit with it & let it ru your gu.
& 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.
jyotish, vedic astrology, is the science of light. if you want to shine more light on your life, please contact me for a session. ~.~
