it’s thursday, october 29, & moon is in pisces, in the starspace called revati. pisces is the sign of surrender, where we let go. the issue in pisces is whether we are going to go high or go low, whether we are going to let ourselves be caught by the arms of god or by the god of oblivion: are we are going to check further in or just check out?
revati is the last asterism of the last sign of the zodiac & as such represents our final frontier, at least this go round, which could mean our last incarnation, if we’ve done all our work, been doing our practices—hey, we never know when we’re going to blast the heck out of here! but, for most, if not all, of us, it represents yet another emo-body journey around the zodiac & we can look back over the past month & note our progress—where we upped our game, where it still needs upping.
it’s the fourteenth phase of the waxing moon, which means there’s a full moon on the horizon & that we are feeling full to bursting emotionally. given that mars (our passion & fighting spirit) & mercury (our discernment) are retrograde right now & that venus (relationships) & the sun (our individuality) are in debilitation (their least supported places in the sky), it wouldn’t take much for us to, say, feel like we don’t matter, or feel powerless to make ourselves matter, & take it out on those near & dear. beware inflammatory objects (ie, situations, words, thoughts), breathe deep & count to ten.
thursday is ruled by jupiter, aka the guru, so it’s a good day to connect, or reconnect, to the teachers & teachings that inspire us, that guide us on our path. one of the upsides of this insane pandemic is the cornucopia of dharmic gifts available at the touch of our keypads now. if, for example, you’ve never had the sublime pleasure of attending one of richard freeman’s sunday studio talks at the yoga workshop in boulder, which were always free to the public, you can now indulge in that pleasure online. he, & his wife, mary, have started giving zoom talks & they are archived; you can find them here!
& 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.
