it’s thursday, july 4, & moon is in gemini, in the starspace called mrigashira. after hanging out in the comfort zone of taurus, moon gets a little (or a lot!) itchy under the sway of gemini; for gemini vibrates with the frequency of curiosity & exploration. it is by trying new things, testing new ideas that we keep honing our sense of identity, know the truth of who we are. “truth” is a key word for gemini, seeking it in the marketplace of ideas & sharing it politely, not foisting in on others, not using it as a cudgel. as in, “don’t tell a lie about me and i won’t tell the truth about you” (james brown), words of wisdom that just might have facilitated a civil & real debate the other night, cognitive issues notwithstanding. the desire & effort necessary, now more than ever, to separate fact from fiction makes gemini a sign of the times, fo’ sure.
mrigashira is the star of the wandering deer, of our incessant desire to satisfy our thirst for something we can’t quite name & forever eludes us … until we realize that what we are seeking isn’t “out there” but “in here.” ok, i guess it’s gonna be another rock ‘n’ roll kinda day & i’m just gonna roll with it, b/c another blast from the past is blasting in my head, this time the who:
i’ve looked under chairs
i’ve looked under tables
i’ve tried to find the key
to fifty million fables
they call me the seeker
i’ve been searching low and high
i won’t get to get what i’m after
till the day i die …
if the who were the beatles & got with a spiritual teacher & meditation, they wouldn’t have had to wait till they died & would’ve written a different refrain!
it’s the fourteenth lunar day (tithi), the fourteenth phase of the waning moon, which means we have a new moon tomorrow & that it’s a good day to ponder our intention for manifestation. hint: how can you look at your life with new eyes, bring a new, more positive perspective to it?
thursday is ruled by jupiter, planet of grace & higher wisdom, who is hovering at the most potent degree of rohini for that right now, increasing growth, inspiration & abundance. can you feel it?
happy independence day! may all beings be safe & free—today & every day!
& that’s your daily bliss! which is a sort 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.
