it’s thursday, october 6, & moon is in aquarius, in the starspace called dhanishtha as i write, but will be in shatabhishak when you read this. aquarius vibrates with the frequency of humanitarianism. under its sway we expand our sense of responsibility beyond our personal lives, our personal goals, to the world around us, whether that means our immediate community, our country, or the earth in its entirety. aquarius gives us a kick in the butt to donate our time or money or other resources to improve what we can. & let’s face it, there is no shortage of need, there is something each & everyone of us can do. &, not to spoil the fun of just giving b/c we can, helping others helps ourselves, b/c it makes the world a better place for us as well. call it enlightened self-interest or selfish selflessness. who cares, as long as it works?! 

dhanishtha brings a lesson about what true wealth means to us; hint: it’s not about how much $ we have. shatabhishak brings a lesson about the wealth of our resources to heal ourselves, the myriad alternative remedies & doctors/healers (shat = 100, abhishak = healers) we can seek out to find the right cure, which also means that we are ultimately our own healers, b/c we get to decide what’s best for us.

it’s the twelfth lunar day, the twelfth phase of the waxing moon, which is connected to the sun, who gives us clarity of vision. it’s a good day to get clear on our vision. 

thursday is ruled by jupiter, who gives us teachers & teachings that inspire & guide us on our way forward. if we want to continue to receive the blessings of wisdom, it’s important for us to show our gratitude for those who so generously share theirs with us. we can literally thank them, fo’ sure. we can also donate to their causes, support their dharma centers, give as generously as we can when they teach. (in the buddhist tradition, our teachers depend on dana, donations, aren’t paid to teach.) so many people—pundits & pandits—these days offer uplifting, enlightening free content—youtube videos, newsletters, webinars, podcasts. we can show our appreciation, let them know we want them to keep offering, by buying their products (courses, books, etc.) or by supporting them through patreon or paid subscriptions. it’s a good day to do that!

& that’s your daily bliss! which is a 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.
