it’s thursday, november 5, & moon is in gemini, in the starspace called ardra. we are still in info-gathering mode today. duh—with votes still being counted, with hypocritical challenges to the counts already in: did you know that trump was incensed when, in 2016, independent candidate jill stein asked for a recount in wisconsin? he was ahead 20,000-ish votes & that was enough for him to declare a win. yet now, with biden ahead 20,000 votes, trump is calling not fair & demanding a recount. lol! sorry for the politics, folks, it’s hard to keep the insanity off the radar.
ardra brings fierce, stormy energy, which we don’t really need right now, right? i mean, haven’t we had enough? so let’s see how we can use this energy to wash away, like a hard rain, all the muck & negativity. b/c we know by now that the darkest hour is right before the dawn, that storms also bring rainbows, the magic of renewal.
it’s the fifth phase of the waning moon, so it’s a good day to get with some self-healing, nourishment, whatever works for you—donating time or $, getting outdoors in nature, eating & making yummy food. what’s your go-to medicine?
thursday is ruled by jupiter, who invites us to connect to our highest purpose, for which we often need to rely on teachers/gurus/jupiter figures. it is said that when the buddha achieved nirvana, enlightenment, he was tempted to just enjoy it by himself b/c he thought it would be too much work for others. but the gods begged him to teach, & thus began the tradition of students requesting teachings before the teacher agrees to teach. that’s how teachings are passed on, that’s how we get them. do you think great teachers just show up randomly at your yoga studio? no, someone invited them, made the arrangements, picked them up at the airport. how can you create the conditions to bring the teachers & teachings into your life that will support you? where is guidance lacking in your life? what intention can you set to call in what you need & what action steps can you take to make it so?
& 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.
