It's a Masc-Fem Twofer Kinda Day!
Moon is in Cancer & Leo + it's Jupiter's day: Mind the gap between this water & fire sign, stay positive by resourcing with your wisdom sources.
it's thursday, december 19, & moon is in cancer, in the starspace (pie slice of cancer sky) called ashlesha, & moves into leo/magha early this afternoon while being supported & transported by ... nothing—yikes! yes, we are jumping the gandanta, that starry abyss between a water sign & a fire sign this afternoon, so buckle your seat belts, make sure the lid on your to-go cup is firmly secured, mind the gap. the transition from cancer into leo is one from the purely, divinely feminine into the purely divinely masculine, from being under the sway of the moon to being under the sway of the sun—a complete 180.
ashlesha invites us to examine what & whom we are clinging to like boa constrictors & whether those attachments serve or don't serve us. if we are attached to goodness & light, to upleveling our life, no probs. if not, well. ... magha invites us to consider how upleveling our own life serves others. the bhagavad gita teaches that the best leaders lead by example, not by cracking a whip, not by oppressing or controlling the masses. on a recent “this tantric life” podcast, tantra queen layla martin & her beloved, tantra-taoist king dr. baback amen, shared how they have co-created an exquisitely loving & intentional relationship, have truly woven the divine masculine & the divine feminine into a magnificent varicolored & -textured tapestry. (spoiler alert: it was far from easy!) most of us might not reach such exalted heights of love, but by following their example, we all might get a lot closer.
it's the fifth lunar day (tithi), the fifth phase of the waning moon, which supports healing practices, like, hey, listening to uplifting podcasts, walking in nature, taking a bath. what would feel healing to you? how might you offer healing to someone else?
thursday is ruled by hopeful, optimistic jupiter, who says, “no sense in being pessimistic—it wouldn’t work anyway.” lol! but seriously, the reason jupiter is so hopeful & optimistic is that he's connected to wisdom sources, is wisdom, in a real way, not in the way some people said they were science. wisdom is wisdom, science changes from one lab experiment (or political agenda) to the next, is constantly in flux. bloodletting, anyone? i don't think so! anyhoo, thursday is a good day to honor those who bring wisdom into your life, to read or listen to whatever or whoever uplifts, enlightens you up.
TL;DR
embrace your fem, embrace your masc. • it’s a tantric life! • healing rituals for yourself or others are on today’s menu. • connect with who & what makes you optimistic—pessimism doesn’t work anyway, lol!
& that’s your daily bliss! IN-joy! 🌖🙏✨
