it’s wednesday, may 17, & moon is in aries, in the starspace called ashwini. aries vibrates with the frequency of new beginnings, of beginning again, of waking up from the dream state/liminal state of pisces & taking bold steps forward in our life. aries is all about me me me, about “my” personal power, “my” identity. aries wants each of us to assert ourself, to own & express our unique authenticity. aries invites us to, as charlie mackesy wrote in “the boy, the mole, the fox & the horse,” “always remember you matter, you’re important & you are loved, & you bring to this world things no one else can.” what is your special offering to the world? how can you uniquely show up?
ashwini is, speaking of horses, ruled by the ashwini kumara, the twin horse deities who brought us the science of ayurveda. yes, horses are smart! they are also fast as fast! & their energy can be hard to control, rein in, b/c, let’s face it, they are meant to be wild, run free as the wind. but we are not meant to; we are meant to focus our energy—our prana, our inner winds, our vital life force—if we are going to get where we mean to go, step boldly up & into our authenticity. this asterism brings a lesson about the speed with which healing occurs when we focus our vital life force.
it’s the thirteenth lunar day, the thirteenth phase of the waning moon, which is ruled by kamadeva, the hindu cupid. it’s a good day to do what we love with the ones we love, to delight in our physical embodiment, which always feels nourishing & healing to me.
wednesday is ruled by mercury, who has finally started moving forward again. which means we get to stop blaming that sweet planet for our communication & travel & computer mishaps—we get to take personal responsibility for them—& we get to move forward with whatever the retrograde cycle gave us a chance to reflect on. mercury has been in aries & still is, so whatever house aries represents for you, that’s where it’s time to take action, which is perfect, b/c aries is, as i’ve already said, the sign of moving forward & taking positive action.
& 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.
