it’s tuesday, november 14, & moon is in scorpio, in the starspace called anuradha. scorpio vibrates with the frequency of our emotional vulnerability, b/c it is where moon is debilitated, is weak as weak, but/& scorpio is ruled by mars, who gives us the courage to overcome our weakness, master our insecurities, vanquish our fears & paranoias, build our emotional stability muscle. scorpio is where our shadow lives, the parts of us we are embarrassed about & want to keep hidden. guess what? everyone has them! as haruki murakami wrote, “where there is light, there must be shadow, where there is shadow there must be light. there is no shadow without light & no light without shadow.” so embrace your shadow, your wholeness, celebrate the fullness of your complex humanity! just don’t let your shadow, um, overshadow your light!
anuradha is ruled by mitra, the divine friend, & reminds us of the divine friendship between radha & krishna, of her utter devotion to him. no, they were not married, they were married to other people, so wtf?! well, it’s complicated! their relationship represents the desire of the individual soul to become one with all, to merge with the divine, with god, which, even if we aren’t aware of it, is the root of all human desire. let that sink in & do with it what you want!
it’s the second lunar day (tithi), the second phase of the waxing moon, which is infused with the quality of pride, which gives us the confidence to grow & blossom the seed of inspiration we planted yesterday on the new moon. what was your intention for this lunar cycle? how are you doing with it? how’s the manifestation work going? are you overly confident or too timid? too impatient? do you hesitate & stymie yourself out of fear of failure?
tuesday is ruled by mars, our inner (& sometimes outer!) warrior, who gives us the courage (& physical prowess) to fight the good fight. b/c mars likes to be in his body & moon is in scorpio, it’s a good day to, perhaps, do some shadow boxing, lol! or go hit the heavy bag at the gym! or go for a run or hike or rake those leaves while contemplating your inner opponents, your limiting beliefs & negative tendencies—just like fallen leaves, there’s always more.
& 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.
