it’s thursday, september 3, & moon is in pisces, in the starspace called uttarabhadra. pisces is ruled by jupiter, who represents our core beliefs, who gives us hope by inspiring us with possibility, by connecting us to a purpose greater than ourselves. hope is a form of resistance, resisting what is in order to create something better, dreaming of something better & believing it will be so.
“hope inspires the good to reveal itself. this is almost all i ever need to remember. gravity and sadness yank us down, and hope gives us a nudge to help one another get back up or to sit with the fallen on the ground, in the abyss, in solidarity.” — emily dickinson
uttarabhadra is the yang to purvabhadra’s yin: yesterday we may have caught a glimpse of the truth; today we do something about it, figure out how to turn that inspiration into reality, how to make it manifest in our lives, how to embody it. yeah, sounds a little abstract, b/c it is—we are in the realm of the metaphysical. enjoy it!
it’s the second phase of the waning moon, which is related to vishnu, the sustainer, preserver & maintainer of the universe. what actions can you take today to sustain, preserve &/or maintain your universe? does the roof need fixing? the garden need weeding? is a pot of soup calling to you to be made?
thursday is jupiter’s day. jupiter is also known as guru. the guru is the teacher, the one who brings insight, wisdom, & thereby removes (ru) the heaviness (gu), the darkness & clouds of delusion. the guru takes us to god, which/who then takes us to self: the teacher brings us to the realization of god & god brings us to the realization that we are god, that there is no separation between the individual & the universal. in this way guru, god & self are one, are the same thing. it just takes us a while to figure it out.
& 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.
