it’s thursday, march 23, & moon is in aries, in the starspace called ashwini. mars-ruled aries vibrates with the frequency of by being unashamedly all we can be, owning who we are, making our mark on the world. mars loves to strut his stuff, feel his power, take action. thinking is, however, not his strong suit—he often (usually?!) acts first, thinks later, his motto being “just do it!” this M.O. doesn’t always work out so well, so do let’s try to take a deep breath, inhale & exhale (focus our prana!), before we act, yes?
ashwini is ruled by the ashwini kumara, the twin horse gods who gave us the science of ayurveda. horses (& the ashwins especially) are forces of prana, life force, & have the ability to reach their destination (find a cure) with speed (horsepower), but they have to know where they’re going & in this case work together as a team, not go in different directions. this asterism reminds us that we need to focus our prana (make sure our horses are in sync) to achieve our desired results. with venus in the mix in aries, we get to ask ourselves what we want to achieve in terms of, say, relationship or an artistic endeavor or perhaps a house project & whether we have set a clear intention (see more below!) & are acting in accordance with that intention, whether we are focusing our prana there or not.
it’s the third lunar day, the third phase of the waxing moon, which supports us in being as flexible as gumby, changing direction if need be, & keeping others in the loop if/when we do. communication is all!
thursday is ruled by jupiter, planet of good fortune, which is often construed as luck, as a random sprinkle of fairy dust. but luck doesn’t happen—we create it. there is nothing random, nothing arbitrary, about the blessings of the divine, which come from a combo of effort & grace. as deepak chopra says, “good luck is opportunity and preparedness coming together. intention will provide you opportunities, but you still need to act when the opportunity is provided. whenever.” are you missing opportunities? are you ignoring them when they tap you on the shoulder, bump right into you, stare you in the face? how much good fortune are you not allowing yourself to receive as a result of not responding to these prompts?
& 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.
