it’s tuesday, may 10, & moon is in leo, in the starspace called purvaphalguni. in the environment of leo, we get to express the fullness & magnanimity of our sovereignty. how do you proclaim your power—do you humbly take responsibility for the world you rule or do you lord it over those who depend on or look up to you? do you lead by example? just asking!
purvaphalguni is ruled by the deity bhaga, whose name means “delight,” & brings a lesson about the importance of taking a break from our worldly duties to delight in our embodied existence, especially, but not necessarily, if it involves with others. all work & no play makes us dull boys ‘n’ girls ‘n’ binaries, etc, so do grab yo’self some afternoon (or morning or evening) delight today! do schedule some playtime with others!
it’s the ninth lunar day, the ninth phase of the waxing moon, which is characterized by serpent energy. serpents, like, dragons, for example, kilgharrah, the great dragon, in “merlin” (true confessions: that ancient series is my go-to when my brain & body need a time-out), can heal or harm, can use their magic for good or evil. it all depends on how we show up, how we engage with that energy, whether we are in the intention to learn or to control. fun fact: we can’t control anything but how we perceive our reality & how we respond. so if we encounter toxicity today, the best practice is to be curious about it, ask ourselves what wisdom it has to reveal, turn what may seem harmful into a healing balm.
tuesday is ruled by mars, who gives us courage to, among other things, hold our boundaries—b/c boundaries are one way to show self-love, & what’s loving for us is always loving for others (even if they don’t realize it right away!).
“your boundary need not be an angry electric fence that shocks those who touch it. it can be a consistent light around you that announces, ‘i will be treated sacredly.'”—jaiya john
if we can hold ourselves sacredly, with love & light, it’s good for us & good for others, b/c it models how it’s done, how to maintain boundaries gently but firmly.
& that’s your daily bliss! which is a kind 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. may it inspire you to enlighten up a little more each day.
