it’s thursday, june 4, & moon is in the starspace called anuradha, which occupies a lovely sky-slice of scorpio. moon is debilitated in scorpio, where the dark, stormy waters toss & turn it, keep it from knowing if it’s up or down, what’s real & what isn’t. hold space for your emotions today without getting tossed & turned by them. observe.
anuradha suggests that we should follow (anu), be like, radha, krishna’s great good friend, & this asterism is ruled by the deity mitra, whose name means “friend.” so we are being called on to exude warmth toward others, to be leaders of inclusivity, to be helpful & kind. mitra is associated with daylight, with dispelling darkness by bringing the light; he brings opposites together, like protesters & rioters, like left & right, like dividers & uniters. how can each of us bring the light today, be the great good friends our country & world need right now?
it’s the fourteenth phase of the waxing moon, which means we’re going to have a full moon—& eclipse!—tomorrow. it also means our emotional body is feeling pretty darn full & with moon in scorpio we could be feeling like an 11 emotionally. if you’re feeling angry, like many folks are, no problem, there is plenty to be angry about right now. righteous anger is anger that can be transformed if it is used as a tool to find clarity.
jupiter is the lord of thursday & i’ve mentioned a gazillion times that jupiter is retrograde now, & for the near future. jupiter represents the guru & when planets are retrograde, which they are a decent amount of time, that brings their energy closer to home & invites us to reflect on it. it is said that we need teachers/gurus to get us to the point where we realize we don’t need them, that we are our own gurus. i mean, who gives the guru power to teach us? we do. so maybe now is a good time to reflect on how far toward being your own teacher your gurus have brought you.
& 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.
