it’s thursday, may 19, & moon is in sagittarius, in the starspace called purvashaddha. in the environment of jupiter-ruled sagittarius, we zoom out so we can see the big picture, which gives us some perspective on our life, on how all is actually unfolding perfectly for our benefit, which allows us to feel inspired & hopeful.
purvashaddha brings a lesson about what is within us that can’t be resisted, that wants to be born in this lifetime, blossom, so we can complete our soul work. what is it that you would do if money were no object? what is the legacy you want to leave behind? what is your greatest goal?
“and the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”—anais nin
it’s the fourth lunar day, the fourth phase of the waning moon, which can bring a sense of obstacles to overcome. with mercury in retrograde those obstacles might entail travel & technology & communication. so if, like me, you are traveling today, actually getting on a plane for the first time in two-plus years, & are heading to DIA, which is notorious of late for hideous security lines & discombobulation thanks to construction & staff shortages, you will want to double-check your flight status, give yourself a huge margin of pre-flight time, & make sure your uber app is downloaded so you can grab a ride to your airbnb (on the beach!!!) when you land in san diego (where you will be spending the weekend with your astrology teacher!!!).
thursday, like sag, is owned by jupiter, so we get to double-down on hopefulness, which is hard to capture with words, although emily dickinson did so rather eloquently :
hope is the thing with feathers
that perches in the soul,
and sings the tune without the words,
and never stops at all,
and sweetest in the gale is heard;
and sore must be the storm
that could abash the little bird
that kept so many warm.
i’ve heard it in the chillest land,
and on the strangest sea;
yet, never, in extremity,
it asked a crumb of me.
& 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.
