it’s thursday, september 24, & moon is in sagittarius, in the starspace called purvashadha. sagittarius creates an environment of inspiration. it is ruled by jupiter, the planet of teaching & wisdom (& today is jupiter’s day—see below!). from wisdom gained, we can lead an inspired life, take inspired actions in the world, embrace our highest purpose. when we embrace our highest purpose, we give other people permission to embrace theirs. the world needs all of us to embrace our highest purpose now more than ever, so let’s do it!
purvashadha means “early victory” & is ruled by the deity apas, aka the ocean. our early victory comes when we plant seeds & water them, nurture them, with our ocean of love & devotion—our early victory ensures our later victory, just as nurturing a child affects/ensures their later success in life.
it’s the ninth lunar day, the ninth phase of the waxing moon, which brings serpent energy. serpents are harbingers of both toxins & wisdom—if we can be with the toxicity, with the shadow, our shadow, we can usually transform it into wisdom. are you up for the challenge?
thursday is jupiter’s day. jupiter is the teacher, the guru; jupiter, like all of the planets, is part of us, resides within. jupiter is our own inner knowing, our own ability to be our own guidance, but it can take us a while to trust that & so we seek teachers “out there.” the role/goal of the guru is to teach us that there is no separation, that we are all one, all the same. in the netflix doc “my octopus teacher,” a man disconnected from his life is reconnected to all that is through his relationship with, yes, an octopus. he sees himself in this strange & curious sea animal, has a huge “aha” moment through their interactions, through his observations of her, & realizes that we are all the same. teachers abound all the time, everywhere, in myriad forms—we just have to have our eyes & hearts open to perceive them & receive their lessons.
& 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.
