it’s tuesday, march 12, & moon leaps from pisces into aries at 9 a.m. MDT, from the starspace called revati into ashwini. the border between water (pisces, cancer, scorpio) & fire (aries, leo, sagittarius) signs is a sort of danger zone for moon, our consciousness, b/c there is no starspace to support moon’s crossing from one to the other. do mind that gap, cut your mind some slack, let it have a time-out. aries vibrates with the frequency of our authenticity, of being all we are meant to be, which can sometimes mean going our own way, forging an entirely new path, which doesn’t always mean traveling alone.
“there is such a profound beauty in the moment when you turn away from the mainstream and this heavy weight you are talking about which is social expectations and conditioning, and you look down at the ground, at the dirt and worms and mud (which i tend to put into everything that i ever write) and you start digging. because it’s like … if the main path isn’t for me, maybe i can go under or around or to the side or even blow it up. and turns out that there’s lots of us there and you do find other humans.”—lidia yuknavitch
ashwini (see yesterday’s post for revati) is ruled by the ashwin kumara, twin horse gods who were sons of surya, the sun. horses represent our prana, our vital life force, & also our senses, both of which need to be harnessed, focused: if our prana isn’t, we can’t use it to take us where we want to go; if our senses aren’t, they, too, will lead us astray, as we gallop after one desire or another.
it’s the third lunar day (tithi), the third phase of the waxing moon, which can involve some course correcting, being flexible if the day doesn’t go exactly as planned—& when does it ever? how can you work your gumby muscles today, do some inner stretching?
tuesday, like aries, is ruled by mars, who is still in his power place in capricorn, so it’s a double-good day to be your most intelligent warrior & take courageous action, whether internally or externally, whether fighting your own psychic demons or fighting the good fight for an underdog.
& 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.
