Bringing "Aha!" Moments to One & All
Moon moves from Aquarius into Pisces & Monday is the Moon's day: Tap into the experience of being one with all that is; don't worry, be happy.
it's monday, november 11, & moon moves from aquarius into pisces around 2 p.m. MST while being supported & transported by the starspace called purvabhadra. under the sway of aquarius, where moon has been since midmorning saturday, our attention is drawn away from our individual life toward our life as part of the earth collective & our contribution to it. under the sway of pisces, our attention is drawn away from being part of a global, worldly collective to being part of the universal, otherworldly collective, part of all that is. pisces is where the booster of our embodied existence drops away & we ascend into the deep space of our spiritual essence.
purvabhadra brings a lightning flash of realization or inspiration, depending on whether we are walking a more material or more spiritual path, are in a more material or spiritual state of beingness today. if your idea of fun is having your illusions about reality smashed to smithereens like a porcelain teacup dropped from on high onto a marble floor, fun may be in the offing for you this monday. if not, depending on where this asterism falls in your chart, you may be struck with an "aha!" about a work or creative or relationship or home issue. the question is, what are you going to do with that "aha!"?
it's the eleventh lunar day (tithi), the eleventh phase of the waxing moon, which is when our mind is least cluttered, least busy, least distracting, & so supports spiritual practices like meditation, which take us beyond our thinking mind, allow us to tap into the experience of our true nature, of being one with all that is.
"practice meditation. you'll find that you are carrying within your heart a portable paradise."—paramahansa yogananda
there are many ways to meditate, to take a timeout from busyness, from doing, & practice stillness, practice just being.
monday is ruled by peaceful & peace-loving moon, who reminds us that worrying about tomorrow's problems (whether personal or universal) won't make them go away—it'll just ruin today's peace. worrying about what may be is also what the buddha called "wrong thinking." none of us knows what tomorrow may bring, so what's the point of wasting all our brain & heart cells over what may not even come to pass? yes, that's a rhetorical question!
TL;DR
blast into the deep space of your spiritual essence. • be grateful for “aha!” moments. • make time for stillness. • don’t worry about tomorrow—be here today!
& that’s your daily bliss! IN-joy! 🌖🙏✨
