it’s tuesday, may 11, & we have a new moon in aries, in the starspace called krittika. the new moon is the coming together of the divine masculine, aka the sun, & the divine feminine, aka the moon, to begin a new cycle, to plant the seed (as can happen when masc & fem come together) we want to nourish into manifestation now.
masculine & feminine are in a constant dance, both within us & in our relationships. regardless of our gender, sometimes we need more or express more masculine doing, sometimes more feminine feeling, but today we get to tap into the purpose & confidence & focus of the masculine as well as the intuition & heart & creativity of the feminine, into the well of both energies, to launch our moon work for the next month. what’s it gonna be? what’s on your heart? what’s on your mind?
krittika is ruled by agni, sacred fire, & invites us to cut (krit) through illusion or cut off, sever swordlike, what doesn’t serve. fire is connected to sight & so gives us the vision, the clarity (fire, like the sun, also purifies), to see what’s what & what isn’t. the mythology around this asterism involves the birth of kartikeya, who was shiva’s warrior son & is associated with mars, the warrior among the planets, & who, serendipitously, imbues tuesday with his essence.
mars gives us the courage to, well, do what we need to do to enlighten the “f” up, to clear-cut (but please don’t do that with trees!) negativity in the form of thoughts, emotions, beliefs & people, to be samurais for our spiritual evolution.
which means we’ve got it all going on for a powerful month of growth: vision, weaponry & courage!
oh, & krittika straddles fiery aries & earthy taurus, so we feel the ground beneath our feet even as we, or just after we, lighten up by offering bits & pieces of our life up to agni.
what needs to go or be transformed (fire is, after all, related to digestion, the process of transforming food into energy for our body)? relationships? habits? beliefs? & what possibility will that shift open up space for in your life? what is your vision for creation & how can you make it so, now? ok, you’ve got your marching orders, your krittika assignment!
& that’s your daily bliss! which is a kind of lunar weather report. it is my hope that the daily bliss can help you align with the day’s cosmic energy & find a little more bliss; that it inspires you to enlighten up a little more each day.
