it’s wednesday, september 15, & moon is in sagittarius, in the starspace called purvashadha. sagittarius, a sattvic sign ruled by inspirational jupiter, creates an environment in which we want to be our best selves, not just for our own sake but to add goodness to the world. jupiter connects us to the wisdom sources that guide us on our quest for goodness. ultimately those sources lie within & with jupiter retrograde now, it is time to turn inward, to dive deeper into the teachings that provide a container for our beingness or to question whether they really do, to question our own knowing.
purvashadha brings the lesson that each of us has something within that wants to be born, that MUST be born if we are to fulfill our destiny. like a caterpillar that doesn’t know it’s going to become a butterfly but surely feels change happening in its body (just stay with me on this—i’m no entomologist!), we might not know exactly what we want to manifest but feel something percolating within, & it’s up to us to be with the process, to be in the mystery. vision boards don’t work if you want to be in the mystery, if you want to allow for the unknowable—trust & patience do.
like, i had no idea i wanted to write “the daily bliss”—i didn’t put it on a vision board. the little cells within my right brain just started dividing or mutating or whatever they do in the creative process & one day i woke up & just KNEW—my butterfly emerged from its cocoon!—& i started writing.
sooooo, tap into the energy of this asterism & let your inner caterpillar become the butterfly it wants to be! trust the butterfly effect!
it’s the tenth lunar day, the tenth phase of the waxing moon, which (serendipitously!) supports us in our quest to fulfill our dharma!
mercury infuses wednesday with his special sauce of communication & discriminating intelligence. it’s a good day to gather facts & analyze them & form cogent opinions as a result. mercury does not want us to gather facts just to confirm what we already know or think we know, but to find out what we don’t know, to shift our perspective if need be, to actually learn.
& 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.
