it’s friday, october 22, & moon moves from aries this morning into taurus this afternoon (yay, we’ve got a taurus moon for the weekend!) while being supported by the starspace called krittika. after spending time in fiery, masculine “let’s get ‘er done”-oriented aries, we get to put up our feet, relax & just INjoy in earthy, feminine taurus. taurus is moon’s favorite place, b/c s/he feels grounded here, his/her watery, changeable nature contained, held. which means we get to feel emotionally stable (fingers x’d) for the next couple o’ days. which is, i do believe, what many of us can use right now. feel free to correct me if i’m wrong … if, that is, you can motivate yourself to get up off that overstuffed couch on which you’ll be lounging & watching movies or reading an awesome novel while dark chocolate melts in your mouth & your feet rest in your beloved’s lap!

krittika invites us to cut (krit = to cut) through our emotional attachments, bringing the lesson that the less we attach to outcomes, to our agenda, to another, to our expectations, the more we receive, the freer we are. can you be, do you want to be, powerfully present & unattached? do you want to try & see what happens? yesss, you can be attached to being unattached, lol!

it’s the second lunar day, the second phase of the waning moon, which (yay! b/c friday/venus!) is connected to lord krishna, who wants us to get our love & joy on. we get to double down today, people!

friday is infused with the special sauce of venus (who also, perhaps not unsurprisingly, rules taurus), who wants us to feeeeeel the pleasures of our embodied existence, to xxx-perience the delights that only having a body can bring, who doesn’t want us to forget that, yes, we can have our cake (or dark chocolate!) & eat it too, that being spiritual doesn’t mean not being fully human, but quite the opposite. what sends your senses soaring? makes your taste buds go “wow,” your fingers tingle, your eyes go wide with amazement, your ears have an orgasm? venus wants us to INdulge (not necessarily over-IN-dulge, tho), & bonus points if we can or want to share the deliciousness with another or others, b/c that’s how venus rolls.

& that’s your daily bliss! which is a kind 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. may it inspire you to enlighten up a little more each day.
