it’s sunday, may 10, & moon is in the starspace called mula, which is the first sky-slice of sagittarius. if you had your sad on while moon traversed emotionally dark & turbulent scorpio the past couple of days, now that moon is in sagittarius you may feel as if you’ve washed ashore on an island paradise where the mangoes are always ripe, the coconuts always within reach & an ocean breeze is always gently caressing you in your banana-leaf hammock. b/c sagittarius is ruled by jupiter, who brings hope by aligning us with a higher purpose, who gives us perspective by zooming out & allowing us to see the big picture after we’ve been mesmerized by the minutiae of our lives.
mula means “root” & is ruled by the deity nritti, who, um, doesn’t like to beat around the bush, digs beneath it to get right to the root of the problem & takes no prisoners in the process. i was gardening yesterday, which involves culling. you plant a lot of seeds, see what takes & then you have to make sure there’s enough space between the plants so that they can grow, so that they can get big enough for you to have something to eat in return for all your hard work. which means you have to yank some plants out by their roots & toss them. i’ve always hated having to euthanize my little babies, but i’ve also learned that if you don’t you won’t have a bountiful garden. what part of the garden of your life needs to be yanked out by the roots today so that you can maximally thrive? can you get your nritti on today & be ruthless? do it for the sake of your life’s bigger purpose?
it’s the fourth tithi (phase) of the waning moon, so you may feel as if you are being thwarted, as if there are big rocks everywhere you turn—see if you can shift your perspective to turn those obstacles to your advantage, using them as stepping stones to your greatness.
sunday is ruled by the sun, who is associated with father. but, hey, today is mother’s day & i just had to share this pic of my beloved mom, taken in miami in 1954—miss you so much mom! it has been suggested that since men are more prone to covid-19 than women, that maybe the women should take over for a while & give the men a rest. whaddya think?
