it’s thursday, july 25, & moon is in pisces, in the starspace called uttarabhadra. while aquarius vibrates with the worldly, with our temporal, ever-changing experience of material existence, pisces vibrates with the frequency of the otherworldy, of what is eternal, constant, never changing, with the experience of our cosmic existence.

“what came through the closed door was the realization—not the knowledge, for this wasn’t verbal or abstract—but the direct, total awareness from the inside, so to say, of LOVE as the primary & fundamental cosmic fact.”—aldous huxley, from “doors of perception”

huxley used psychedelics to open the doors of his perception, & baba ram dass experimented abundantly with them toward the same ends, until his guru, neem karoli baba (photo), told him to cut that out, that meditation would take him where he wanted to go. as proof, babaji once took a handful (!) of LSD & didn’t feel a thing—b/c he was already there!

uttarabhadra is the counterpart to yesterday’s purvabhadra. if you received a download yesterday, a direct transmission from “out there” to “in here,” it’s time to do something with it, to use it or lose it. i’m not shaming anyone who may have dropped that ball—we’re not meant to run with every thought, every idea we have. if we did, we’d be running forever, & it’s hard to manifest when you’re not standing or sitting still. still, bhadra means “auspicious.” if that “aha!” is still hanging out with ya, it’s hanging out for an auspicious reason, wants you to pay attention to it.

it’s the fifth lunar day (tithi), the fifth phase of the waning moon, which gives us the strength to achieve our goal, if we can focus hard on it, b/c it can also infuse us with so much creative juju that we spread it too thin, chase too many goals/ideas.

thursday is ruled by wise, optimistic & expansive jupiter, who blesses the day with auspiciousness. jupiter also rules pisces, as well as co-rules the fifth tithi, so it’s a triple-good day to receive the abundant grace of jupiter. & it’s three out of three vis à vis auspiciousness as well, b/c the fifth tithi is also said to be auspicious. how can you best use all that auspiciousness today?

& that’s your daily bliss! which is a sort 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.
