it’s friday, june 25, & moon is in sagittarius, in the starspace called purvashaddha, & truth be told i am blear-blear-bleary-eyed from an epic midweek hiking trip, where, after grueling our way through a boulder field from hell & not far from the summit (12,777) of buffalo mountain, we were gifted with a very close encounter with this family of mountain goats, so thank you for bearing with me!
ok, back to our regularly scheduled program: sagittarius, where we just had our full moon, vibrates with the frequency of the beliefs that make our life worth living, that give it, & therefore our existence, meaning. as the marine biologist edith widder writes in her memoir of deep sea exploration, “below the edge of darkness”: “we believe we see the world as it is. we don’t. we see the world as we need to see it to make our existence possible.”
the full moon was in the starspace called mula, which means “root,” so our moon work for the waning lunar cycle is to both pull up by the roots that which does not make the existence we want to experience possible & to put down the roots of that which does. & the presiding deity, niritti, an especially fierce form of kali, is there to help us.
as for today: the meaning of the asterism purvashaddha is “invincible.” i invite you to seize the day, to ask yourself what you would do, what you would create, how you would express yourself, what you would let flow through you/from you, how fabulous would you let yourself be, if you didn’t care one iota what anyone else thought.
it’s the first lunar day, so you may be feeling a tad hung over from the intensity of the full moon, not quite ready to hit the ground running (yikes, i can barely crawl!)—full moon in mula is no joke, like those boulder fields!—but do at least start feeling into the creative & transformational portent of that full moon energy.
friday is ruled by venus, & you know what that means: doing the things that bring us delight with the one or ones who bring us delight, whether that means ourself or someone else!
& 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.
