it’s friday, november 10, & moon is in virgo, in the starspace called hasta until about midday then in chitra. virgo is where we focus on the small print, go micro, take care of details, get superorganized, go full-on control freak. under the sway of virgo we can lose sight of the forest for the trees. it’s important to remember that the counterpart to effort is grace, surrender, that there is only so much we can actually control, & that so much is really very little. & we certainly can’t control other people—with the pile-up of planets in people-oriented libra of late, we might have thought that was possible & have hopefully come to the conclusion that it’s not, that all we can really control is how we show up & respond.
both hasta & chitra are related to creativity, which, as humans, is how we roll. the universe is ever-creating, unfolding, & so are we. so “be creative,” said osho. “don’t be worried about what you are doing. one has to do many things, but do everything creatively, with devotion. then your work becomes worship. then whatsoever you do is a prayerfulness. & whatsoever you do is an offering at the altar.” what can you offer today?
it’s the thirteenth lunar day (tithi), the thirteenth phase of the waning moon, which is ruled by jupiter, who strengthens our inner-guidance muscle, & kamadeva, god of love & desire. those deets plus all the planetary energy still in venus-ruled libra & that it’s venus’ day makes it a good day to ask ourselves whether we are grateful for our people, whether we are asking too much from them, whether we are giving enough.
friday is ruled by venus, who is debilitated, in virgo, now, not able to appreciate all the love & beauty that abounds, more apt to feel that lack. so we are more apt to criticize our people for all that they’re not & to feel unappreciated, not seen, taken for granted … or worse! with sun, our soul, also debilitated, in libra, it’s a double-whammy … especially for us leos, who are ruled by the sun! anyone else feeling me?! with mercury in scorpio, where his thoughts go negative, it’s especially important to be, um, mindful about ours, not express them without pausing, to reflect on their validity & their potential consequences. if you’re not feeling loved up by others, love up yourself!
& 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.
