it’s tuesday, october 7, & moon is in pisces, in the starspace called revatī until about 1:30 MDT, then moves into aries & the starspace called aśvinī. the juncture between pisces & aries, the last water sign of the natural zodiac & the first fire sign, is the third & final gandanta, a zone where we get to untie a karmic knot, release what wants to die so what wants to be born can be born, which is especially poignant & powerful given that pisces is the sign of of completion/death & aries the sign of beginning/birth.
“i learned this, at least, by my experiment; that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, & endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. he will put some things behind, will pass an invisible boundary. … in proportion as he simplifies his life, the laws of the universe will appear less complex, & solitude will not be solitude, nor poverty poverty, nor weakness weakness.”—henry david thoreau, in walden
what do you get to complete &/or put behind you so that you can live the life you’ve imagined, be all you want to be? how can you simplify?
revatī is ruled by pushan, the cosmic shepherd, who nourishes, guides & offers refuge to all lost beings. aśvinī is ruled by the ashvin kumara, twin horse gods, who were cosmic physicians, bringing nourishment & guidance of another kind. revatī makes sure we get home, complete our journey; aśvinī’s horsepower speeds our healing & ability to initiate new activity toward a new goal/destination.
it’s the first lunar day (tithi), the first phase of the waning moon, so we are still feeling into (or is it just me?) the power & potential for purification/transformation of yesterday’s full moon. did you get outside & bathe in its luminosity? what arose?
tuesday is ruled by mars, planet of action & courage, who rules aries, so we have a double invitation to move courageously forward. don’t forget to RSVP! mars in libra is bringing fire to relationships, may make us boldly hold our boundaries, rebalance the giving & taking. don’t get mad, make things even.
fyi: there is no starspace to support & transport moon in her crossing from pisces to aries, which means our consciousness, our mind, will feel unsupported, so do mind that gap.
& 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.
