what to know so you can align with today’s energy from a vedic (not western/tropical) astrology point of view: it’s tuesday, july 21, moon is in libra, will be in the starspace called swātī about 9:15 a.m. MDT, it’s the eighth phase of the waxing moon & mars’ day.
where your attention is being drawn
libra’s focus is relationships, & making sure they are good for me & good for you, that you can be fully you & i can be fully me together. while libra is ruled by venus, who is kind & loving, seeks pleasure & harmony, diplomacy, not people-pleasing, is key.
libra is where we get to say, “please don’t mistake my commitment to being a kind & loving person as any sort of willingness to put up with bullshit.”
are you putting up with anyone’s in a business, romantic or family dynamic? asking, not accusing!
how to direct your mental/emotional energy
swātī (see yesterday’s post for citrā) reminds us that where our attention goes, our energy flows. when you’re skiing, if you look at a tree you’ll probs smash into it. if hugging a tree at speed is your goal, great. if not, you get to ask what your goal is so you can focus your precious qualities of attention & intention on it.
pranayama, especially nadi shodhana (alternate-nostril breathing) is a great way to bring your prana, your vital life force, online, to focus it—even a few minutes helps.
what supports you emotionally
on the eighth lunar day (tithi), the eighth phase of the waxing moon, we get to embrace our shadow, the parts of us that we prefer to keep hidden (from ourselves as well as others), to appreciate that we contain multitudes & that each quality (whether we judge it as good, bad or ugly) contributes to our unique human manifestation.
&, hey, we’re all in this together—no one is immune from shadow.
how to align with the weekday’s energy
tuesday is ruled by mars, our inner (& outer) superhero. he gives us courage & disciplined use of power, the ability to act righteously & strategically.
need i say that it’s a good day for being disciplined & strategic?
where today’s headwinds are coming from
ok, this is my newest, favoritist, funnest aspect of jyotish (vedic astrology), &, like all things jyotish, it is very personal to your specific chart, so it may resonate, may not. but headwinds may be coming (well, they’re coming, but not for everyone!) in the form of fault-finding (pointing a finger) & greed. when we point a finger at someone else, three point point back at us. we don’t have to be oligarchs to want-crave-desire, feel we need more than we actually do, to want not just a bigger piece of pie, but the whole pie. we are all works in progress & this may be the work for some of us today.

the daily bliss is 100% human generated! the act of creation is intrinsic to being human—when we give up our agency to create, we cease, little by little, to be fully human.
may it allow you to align with the day’s cosmic energy so you can find & create a little (or a lot!) more bliss in your life.
