Be the King of Your Own Dang Jungle
Moon is in Leo + it's Mercury's day: Rule your realm, regardless of size, with grace & generosity; be mindful of speaking your mind too soon, too often, too indiscriminately.
it's wednesday, february 12, & moon is in leo, in the starspace (pie slice of leo sky) called magha. leo balances the divine feminine, the heartfelt, emotionally nurturing energy of cancer with the divine masculine, with king-of-the-jungle protective energy. it's not easy being a king, but someone's got to do it, & leo gives us all an opportunity to wrap ourselves in a royal robe, set a crown atop our head, feel the power of the scepter in our hand & rule our realm with grace & generosity, noblesse oblige, regardless of how how big or not it is.
magha means "mighty" & is ruled by the pitris, our ancestors. all of them, all those who came before us & made our lives possible—our genetic ancestors, our spiritual ancestors, our academic & artistic ancestors. the best way to honor our forebears is to be the mightiest versions of our selves.
it's the first lunar day (tithi), the first phase of the waning moon, so we're still feeling into the transformative power of the full moon just a few hours ago, which happened in ashlesha & the critical netherworld between cancer & leo, where our subconscious is on high alert & karmic issues come out of our psychic depths to demand attention. ashlesha invites us to address what we are clinging too tightly to that no longer serves us emotionally & spiritually. what is binding, constraining, limiting you? can you thank it, bless it & let it go?
wednesday is ruled by mercury, who is still combust the sun (feeling the heat of the sun, who is only a few degrees behind him), but at least mercury is no longer getting stared down by mars. i don't know about you, but i am soooo relieved that my internal crankiness is gone. anyhoo, we may still be overthinky, overcritical, overjudgy, feeling impelled to speak too soon or too often or too indiscriminately. so let's do beware those tendencies.
bonus track: sun crosses the border between capricorn & aquarius at 9 a.m. mountain time, & b/c sun is our power source it's a good day to cut ourselves some slack, lower our expectations, take a few things off our to-do list. & given the powerful full moon energy, why not use that extra time to untie another karmic knot or two?
TL;DR
play king for a day (or two)! • honor those that came before you by being the mightiest version of you. • take a little time today to keep addressing & releasing whatever keeps you unhealthily bound. • beware any tendencies to overthink, overjudge, overspeak. • sun moves signs today: cut yourself some slack.
& that’s your daily bliss! IN-joy! 🌕🙏✨
