it’s wednesday, june 26, & moon is in aquarius, in the starspace called shatabhishak. aquarius vibrates with the frequency of humanitarianism. under its sway we are called to each do our part, however big or small, to leave this world better than we found it. if we want to live in a world corrupted by corporate interests & the military industrial complex’s need for war war war, not so much to do. but if we want to live in a more beautiful, peaceful world, that’s going to take some work, starting with uncovering & exposing the lies that created this one.
“if wars can be started by lies, peace can be started by truth.”—julian assange
do you want to live in a world storied by lies or by truth? more on story-telling & -making below!
shatabhishak can mean either “100 medicines/healers” or “100 poisons” (i’ll spare you the sanskrit inscrutability). either way it is the star of healing, & of thinking outside the box to do so if necessary, whether that means trying 100 different modalities, seeking 100 different opinions, or resorting to what might be considered poison, which is actually how many medicines are made, is it not? it’s a good day to heal what ails you, or others, to be healed or be the healer.
it’s the fifth lunar day (tithi), the fifth phase of the waning moon, until about 9:30 a.m. MDT, then the sixth, so we have a wee bit longer to single-minded focus on our goals like lakshmi & then we get to solidify them, b/c the sixth tithi gives us the strength & power to make them as enduring as a diamond.
wednesday is ruled by narrative-spinning mercury. “we are the stories we tell about ourselves & we are more than the stories we tell about ourselves,” writes the irish poet & theologian pádraig ó tuama in “in the shelter: finding a home in the world,” adding: “we fiction & fable our lives in order to tell things that are more than true & we lie—if only by omission—by reducing ourselves to mere facts. we create anxiety for ourselves by either rejecting or being limited only to the story of our lives.” we create our reality through story, so why not “write” one that is unbounded rather than bounded, that allows us to feel infinite rather than finite, that uplifts rather than downtrods?
& that’s your daily bliss! which is a sort 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.
