it’s wednesday, november 11, & moon is in virgo, in the starspace called uttaraphalguni. in the atmosphere of virgo we want to tidy up our external life, get all our ducks in a row. no wonder when i sat down this morning & took in the rollicking sea of papers-books-notes that is my desk, i was, like, we need to do something about this! admittedly, this is an ongoing challenge for me, which is why it’s an especially good idea to take advantage of virgo’s desire for order–it’s now or i may have to wait another month, & my desk really can’t wait, b/c the external is a reflection of the internal, & an internal mess really doesn’t serve me. what about you? what needs tidying in your life? what part of your life needs more attention to detail?
uttaraphalguni is known as the marriage star b/c it is said that shiva & parvati got hitched under the influence of this asterism, which is also represented by a fig tree. what we commit to, the contracts we make, produces fruit. if we want that fruit to be succulent, if we want joy to be the outcome, we need to commit wholeheartedly & to serving our highest, most sacred purpose. we want our commitment to be sanctified by the divine. today is a good day to make a juicy commitment!
it’s the eleventh phase of the waning moon this morning, then the twelfth this afternoon. the morning brings more shiva energy & invites us to get with our spiritual practices: think shiva sitting on a mountaintop meditating for thousands of years! the afternoon solar energy purifies our vision—maybe something came up in meditation?—so we can see where we’re going.
wednesday is ruled by mercury, who has been moving forward (ie, not backward, retrograde) for a week now, so hopefully the previous hiccups in communications have been resolved, your words are flowing smoothly, you are able to say what you mean & mean what you say, you are able to take a stand for what you believe in, including yourself, with clarity & conviction by using your discriminating intelligence.
& 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.
