it’s tuesday, september 21 (the eve of the fall equinox), & moon is in pisces, in the starspace called uttarabhadra. pisces vibrates with the frequency of otherworldliness, of knowing that there is more than material reality. for some people, that’s a relief; for others, a burden. not everyone would choose the red pill! not everyone wants to know what’s behind the curtain! a friend of mine shared that he’d been in a long-term relationship with a woman who at one point, perhaps exasperated by my friend’s always wanting to dive deep, get beneath the surface of reality, said, “ya know, i just want to live my life—i don’t want to talk about it.” well, that was pretty clear! there are plenty of blue pills to go around! & there is no judgment. it’s just good to know if you’re a red pill or blue pill kind of person.
uttarabhadra is ruled by ahir budhnya, a deep-sea serpent, who bores into the innermost recesses of our consciousness to reveal our pathologies, which, if we so choose, we can transform into wisdom, the wisdom of the red pill. but you know what that means: letting go of what you think you know, of who you think you are.
it’s the first lunar day, the first phase of the waning moon, a good day to chill a bit & begin to release what no longer serves—just. let. it. go.
mars, who is our warrior spirit, our desire & ability to vanquish foes, fight the good fight, owns tuesday. alas, for most of us, our biggest foe is ourself. fear (self-doubt, insecurity—it manifests in many ways) keeps most of us small, keeps our spirit imprisoned by limited beliefs. but the truth is, even warriors are afraid—they just don’t let their fear stop them from doing what’s right, from doing their dharma. in dhru purohit’s podcast #46 he talks about just this, about how fear can be a motivating force, & that even a world-renowned heart surgeon experiences fear before every surgery—it’s actually what makes him one of the best cardiac surgeons in the world. how can you use your fear to be better, to be your best version of yourself?
& 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.
