it’s tuesday, june 2, moon is in sagittarius, in the starspace called mūla until midmorning, then pūrvāṣāḍḥa, it’ll be the third phase of the waning moon by the time you read this & it’s mars’ day.
focus of attention
sagittarius is the ninth sign/house of the natural zodiac, which is associated with dharma, philosophy, ethics, grace/luck, with our ability to receive wisdom & embody it, to share it with others. from wisdom comes a belief system that shapes our world view, which means we have to be able to differentiate between “good” teachers & “bad,” be able to recognize a good teacher, the real deal, when we see him/her/them.
the paradox is that we need wisdom to differentiate, to recognize the teacher that’s going to take us higher, rather than lower. i mean, both terrorists & sadhus (renunciates) have teachers who guide them, shine a light on their path, give their life a sense of meaning.
how does your life reflect your beliefs? do you see the teachers who have crossed your path as a form of grace? have they brought you closer to god (however you define god)?
mental/emotional direction
mūla time is time to clean up our act (a sisyphean battle for me!) so there’s room in our life to plant a new seed in pūrvāṣāḍḥa, which reconnects us to that thing within us that is dying to be born, that itch that must get scratched before we leave this planet, that would make our life feel complete.
what itch do you get to scratch? what is nagging at you to get done now, in this lifetime?
emotional support
the third lunar day (tithi), the third phase of the waning moon, is associated with the ether element, the subtle matrix, space itself, the expansive container in which everything else exists & without which nothing would exist, that is its nourishment. this tithi invites us to consider how we are the matrix of our own life—our home & family—& to nourish it in perhaps less subtle ways.
this tithi resonates very well with tuesday, mars’ day, the one plus the other creating a siddha yoga, a combo for accomplishment, to support us in getting ‘er done.
how might you use this auspiciousness? how might you tend to your primary relationships?
quality of energy
tuesday is ruled by mars, whose key words are: action, discipline, courage, protection. if we put them all together, we might get courageous, disciplined action aimed at protecting those who can’t protect themselves, like those less resourced, less privileged, society’s underdogs.
what does embodying discipline & courage mean to you?

the daily bliss is 100% human generated! the act of creation is intrinsic to being human—when we give up our agency to create, we cease, little by little, to be fully human.
may it allow you to align with the day’s cosmic energy so you can find & create a little (or a lot!) more bliss in your life.
