it’s wednesday, september 23, & moon is in sagittarius, in the starspace called mula. with moon in sagittarius, we hew toward the beliefs that give our life meaning, the truth that sustains us. it’s getting kinda crazy out there with everyone making up what’s true, getting so extreme in their beliefs & so reactive. hold fast, try not to get triggered, dig in deeper. wearing a mask is not about personal liberty; it’s about the greater good of all, about all beings being free (of disease): lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu—may ALL beings be happy & free (not just me)!
the shakti of the nakshatra mula encourages us to get rid of what doesn’t serve us, to simplify, to really cull the gardens of our life, the many gardens of different aspects of our life—our emotional life, our spiritual life, our work life, etc. mula means “root.” here we get to the root of the matter, of the problem, & yank it out by its roots. we are invited to get clear & get ruthless. you may want to offer up a prayer that everything that needs to go may go so that everything that needs to come has room to come. but prayer without effort, without doing something tangible, doesn’t work.
“i have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. these three are your greatest treasures. ” ~ lau tzu
it’s the eighth phase of the waxing moon, which is a time to connect to the creative forces in the universe—the gunas & elements—& do something with them, whip up your special sauce from them. what happens when you mix a little tamas with some earth & fire? or add a dollop of rajas to sattva & stir in some water & air? taste & season as necessary!
wednesday is ruled by mercury, who just moved into libra & will be there until november 27. this two-month transit is a great opportunity to get creative (more creativity on offer!) with communicating, with your desire to share your thoughts & ideas in an aesthetically pleasing way, to create a thing of beauty with them, from them. if you’ve been thinking of taking a creative writing class, go for it.
& that’s your daily bliss! which is a kind of lunar weather report. the moon is our consciousness & i hope that by unpacking the cosmic forces influencing it every day, you’ll be better able to understand & thus lean into its ever-changing vibrations & use them to your advantage.
