it’s wednesday, october 14, & moon is in leo, in the starspace called uttaraphalguni. uttaraphalguni is the starry bridge connecting leo & virgo, & moon will cross over that bridge midafternoon. so the first half of the day we’ll be feeling like the king/queen of our realm & later in the day, having surveyed our realm, we’ll be wanting to fix whatever we’ve noticed needs fixing, & either rolling up the sleeves of our royal garments or delegating the responsibility. personally, i am happy to delegate the chain-sawing to someone else!
uttaraphalguni is known as the marriage star. marriage is serious business, entails a sincere commitment, but is founded in love, in passion. the commitment is meant to increase the joy between two people. this is a good day to commit to something you’re passionate about so that you can create more joy in your life. what contract are you willing to make with yourself, or with another, to do so?
it’s the thirteenth phase of the waning moon, so the deity bhaga (remember him from yesterday?) is inviting us to feel into our sense of delight. he wants us to be happy, to do what brings us pleasure. (yes, more pleasure!) he wants us to feel like it’s date night.
mercury, who rules wednesday, went retrograde yesterday, which means we want to pay especial attention to how we use our words, & may be having second thoughts about how we’ve used them in the past, what we’ve said to people. with mars also retrograde, highlighting our frustration & anger, it might be a good time to listen to or read or watch videos about “nonviolent communication,” by marshall rosenberg. if you were born on a wednesday after sunrise, mercury represents the special sauce of karma for you to work through in this lifetime. how do you acquire & use information? how do you use your powers of communication? maybe you’re a computer geek or librarian or public relations guru. are you, how are you, expressing the highest intelligence of mercury, maxing out his gifts?
& 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.
