it’s tuesday, june 22, & moon is in scorpio, in the starspace called anuradha. scorpio creates an environment in which we are confronted with unknown or uninvited parts of our psyche. it is where our deepest fears & darkest paranoias are churned to the surface, foaming like the white caps on the surface of a rollicking ocean. which isn’t usually so fun! the key to scorpio is being able to use our pain, our discomfort, our shadow, to know ourselves better.
“it is the basic principle of spiritual life that we learn the deepest things in unknown territory. often it is when we feel most confused inwardly and are in the midst of our greatest difficulties that something new will open. we awaken most easily to the mystery of life through our weakest side. the areas of our greatest strength, where we are the most competent and clearest, tend to keep us away from the mystery.” — jack kornfield
scorpio invites us to be IN the mystery so we can get clear & get stronger!
anuradha is ruled by mitra, the divine friend, & that’s what radha was to krishna. this asterism supports our ability to be divine friends to others, to follow (anu) in radha’s footsteps. who is the radha in your life? how can you allow them to inspire you to be the radha in someone else’s life? how can your own radha-ness inspire others to be their best radha? whom do you love like krishna?
it’s the thirteenth lunar day, the thirteenth phase of the waxing moon, which is ruled by kamadeva, the hindu cupid, which means it’s a good day be with the ones we love & do the things that delight us. you can pretend it’s friday!
tuesday is owned by mars, who gives us our courage to fight the good fight, to fight for what we believe in, to overcome challenges & persevere when we might want to turn tail & run. our ultimate challenge, our ultimate fight, is with the illusion & delusion that cloud our perception & prevent us from seeing ourselves & the world as we/it truly are/is.
fyi: i’m going to be off the grid for a couple of days, so i’ll catch back up with you on friday, post full moon, which i’ll update you about then.
& 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.
