it’s tuesday, may 2, & moon is in virgo, in the starspace called hasta by the time this is posted. virgo vibrates with the frequency of perfectionism. under its sway, we want to make our immediate world & ourselves perfect, or think we can. we associate the state of our immediate world with the state of ourselves, which is a valid paradigm … to a point. i once had a boss who never had a stray piece of paper on his desk, which i, the queen of a messy desk, found unnerving. was he a better person than me, more perfect, was his mind cleaner? i could tell you stories, but the short answer is, i don’t think so! anyhoo, the point is that virgo can make us feel that perfectionism is all, that we’re not good enough until we are perfect. the reality is is that perfection is an illusion, so, sure, go ahead & tidy up your desk, but instead of thinking, “i am not enough” while you do so, try thinking, “i am good enough”!
hasta means “hand” & is ruled by savitur, the creative, inspirational & transformative aspect of surya, the sun. this asterism gives us the power to manifest what we want. savitur puts it metaphorically—or, hey, literally if you are a healer or artist/artisan—in our hands. if you want-need-desire some help with manifesting, try chanting the gayatri mantra, the ode, you might say, to savitur.
it’s the twelfth lunar day, the twelfth phase of the waxing moon, which is related to the sun, who gives us clarity of vision. do you know where you’re going? do you even know if you’re headed in the right direction? check in & reorient, recalibrate your inner GPS if need be.
tuesday is ruled by mars, who loves a good fight &, when he is functioning with utmost intelligence, gives us the courage to fight the one that really matters—the one with our own ignorance. if you are still playing the blame game, making others responsible for the circumstances of your life, & how you feel about them, then your mars muscle could use a workout. today is a good day to be really courageous & ponder (mars is, after all, in gemini, where discriminating intelligence is on high) your own contribution to what is & then take action, for mars loves to act.
& 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.
