happy summer solstice! it’s monday, june 21, & moon is in libra, in the starspace called vishakha. libra vibrates with the frequency of give & take in relationships, of balance, of good for you good for me. in vedic astrology libra is associated with the merchant not the judge; its scales are not the scales of justice but the scales of the grocer, the business person, exacting a fair price for the goods/services they are offering. under the sway of libra we get to check in on our business/romantic/familial/platonic relationships to make sure we are getting as good as we are giving, that there is a fair & equitable exchange of energy between us & the other person. if not, it’s up to us to make it so or go.

the lesson of vishakha is about coming to a fork (shakha) in the road & being intensely (vi) decisive about choosing the correct path, the way a master archer is when aiming their arrow at a target & pulling back their bow. who was the most famous archer of all? arjuna, of course, who was said to see nothing but his target when he was aiming.

in bhagavad gita II.41, krishna tells arjuna: “in this the focused resolute nature of the intelligence is one, joy of the kurus [aka arjuna], while the intelligence of the irresolute has many branches [i.e., forks] which are endless.”

be resolute not weak today. hew to your inner arjuna. trust that your aim is true!

it’s the twelfth lunar day, the twelfth phase of the waxing moon, which is ruled by the sun, making this an especially good day to purify our vision, see our mark clearly & take positive actions steps accordingly.

monday is ruled by the moon, which is the part of us that feels, that intuits, that craves connection with others. moon represents our ability to give & receive love, to feel what we’re feeling. what are you feeling, truly feeling? are you holding on to emotions that don’t serve you? monday is a good day to reflect on all that.

& 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.
