it’s friday, june 17, & moon is in capricorn, in the starspace called shravana. in the environment of capricorn, we are inclined to get serious & still, to be introspective about our lives & how well we are or are not using our time, our precious energy, & recalibrate, find the discipline to do so more efficiently & effectively. capricorn’s ruler, saturn, reminds us that time is finite, we have only so much sand in our hourglasses, & supports us in prioritizing & setting boundaries so that we don’t waste it.
shravana brings a lesson about getting so quiet & listening so deeply that we can hear the voice within, the sound of source. om is said to be that sound, the sound from which the entire universe, including us, was born & continues to inform our lives.
“wherever you are you are always the center of sound. for sounds, you are always the center of the whole universe. every sound is coming to you, moving toward you, in circles.”—osho
when we chant “om” we connect to the source of all that is, & that sound, om, is always humming through us. can you get quiet enough to hear the “om” within?
it’s the fourth lunar day, the fourth phase of the waning moon, which is connected to ganesh, lord of obstacles, & yama, lord of restraint & death. ganesh is both the bringer & remover of obstacles; death is just another way of naming the ending of something, the completion of a cycle. we may be feeling stymied in some way today (yikes, i already am & it’s barely sunrise!) & get to ask ourselves what lesson we there is for us to learn, how we can overcome the obstacle(s), what it’s time to let go of, which may mean letting go of the trying to circumvent the obstacle itself!
friday is ruled by venus, planet of harmony in relationships, of mutually beneficial relationships. venus wants us to get as good as we give, not overgive. which can mean being clear on our needs & setting boundaries. setting boundaries allows us to say no when we need to. saying no to someone or something else is saying yes to ourselves. boundaries are the distance at which we can love another & ourselves simultaneously. & that’s a win-win, which is what venus loves.
& that’s your daily bliss! which is a kind 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. may it inspire you to enlighten up a little more each day.
