what to know so you can align with today’s energy from a vedic (not western/tropical) astrology point of view: it’s wednesday, july 22, moon is in libra, in the starspace called swātī until midday MDT, then viśakhā, it’s the ninth phase of the waxing moon & mercury’s day.
where your attention is being drawn
libra vibrates with the frequency of mutually beneficial, not individually beneficial, relationships. relationships that are two-sided, not one-sided, in which both parties thrive, are better together than apart, are buoyed, uplifted. in which nervous systems feel nourished not ravaged.
“when your nervous system can’t settle down near a person, that is a strong sign that they are not for you.”—yung pueblo
how to direct your mental/emotional energy
swātī reminds us (see yesterday’s post for more) that where our attention goes our energy flows, viśakhā that every moment pretty much presents a choice between flowing toward spiritual or material sustenance. &, yes, we are spiritual beings having a material experience, we do need food & shelter & clothes (we are not, after all, walking around naked smeared with ashes like sadhus in india!), but the question is whether we are putting too much energy into our material existence at the expense of our spiritual growth.
what supports you emotionally
the ninth lunar day (tithi), the ninth phase of the waxing moon, is one of those tithis that are great for inner work, for being less sociable & getting into the nooks & crannies of our psyche, transforming negative tendencies & attachments (more below!) into wisdom by asking ourselves what they’re doing there, what they have to teach us.
how to align with the weekday’s energy
wednesday is ruled by mercury, who loves to think & talk about what he’s thinking about & is going direct tomorrow, so whatever conversations have been on hold get taken off hold, we’ll be done rewinding & rethinking & revisiting, the fog will lift. meanwhile, let’s do beware speaking before our thoughts are fully formed, pause before we open our mouths, hit send (always a good practice).
where today’s headwinds are coming from
headwinds may be coming (well, they’re coming, but not for everyone!) in the form of desire & delusion. if we didn’t have desires we wouldn’t be motivated to do anything. but not all desires are healthy, serve our soul evolution. so notice what you desire & where that desire may lead. also notice how delusion (foggy thinking!) might be showing up—perhaps by trying to label someone or something, put them in a “good” or “bad” box; perhaps by being attached to ideas/people/situations that aren’t healthy. hey, we all suffer from delusion at least some of the time!

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.
