it’s monday, september 11, & moon is in cancer, moving from the starspace called pushya into ashlesha at 8:28 MDT this morning—how’s that for exactitude?—which is, wow, i just realized this, pretty much the time the planes struck the twin towers 22 years ago! & our president used that as an excuse to take away our freedoms (um, why do we still have to take our shoes off at the airport?!) & start an endless war that destroyed vulnerable countries & benefited no one except the military-industrial complex, which, imo, is the whole point of war. do you remember where you were? does that conjure up feelings? i was actually in nyc, & i remember feeling utter shock & disbelief & sadness, & i’m feeling that as i write, for cancer is our heart-centeredness, which allows us to connect with others, have empathy for them.

pushya brings a lesson about what & how we nurture & what we manifest as a result of that nurturing. ashlesha brings a lesson about what we are attached to. just as what we nourish is what will grow, what we are attached to will limit our growth, our soul evolution, or do the opposite. what are you nourishing with your time-energy-love-attention? are you happy with the results so far, do they fill you with joy? are you clinging to people-ideas-behavior-situations that nourish you, inspire you to greaterness, or not? if you’re not sure, feel into whether those whatever make you feel more contracted or more expansive. where in your body do you feel that contraction or expansion?

it’s the twelfth lunar day, the twelfth phase of the waning moon, which is related to the sun, who gives us vision, shines a light on our path. this tithi (lunar phase) supports us in pursuing our vision, getting more clarity around it.

monday is ruled by the moon, who gives us the ability to feel, & given that it’s in cancer, the feelingest of signs, it means we’re double-dipping on our moonyness, that our feelings may get out of control. our challenge is to feel our feelings without becoming them, losing ourself in them, thinking they are who we are. cause they’re not. b/c just as we have thoughts but are not our thoughts, we have feelings but are not our feelings.

& 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.
