Love the Dream, Love the Effort
Moon is in Capricorn + it's Moon's day: Get serious about your goals, but/& do so with kindness & compassion for yourself & others.
it's monday, march 24, & moon is in capricorn, in the starspace called uttarashadha. capricorn vibrates with the frequency of getting serious about the inspo of sagittarius, making whatever we dreamed a reality, turning the ethereal into something concrete. capricorn is ruled by stern taskmaster saturn, who can appear cold & unfeeling (b/c he is, lol!), but that's just b/c he has the discipline to do what needs doing without letting his emotions get in the way. still, capricorn is opposite all-feeling all-the-time cancer, inviting us to be compassionate toward ourselves & others as we get 'er done & to make sure our heart is in it (our work, our home life), b/c if we don't love it, what's the point?
“if you make lists of lofty goals, it can be easy to leave them to accumulate, as happens sometimes, into a mountain of to-do's & notes & half-forgotten plans. dreaming alone is seductive, even a little sweet, since it lacks the pain of trying. so it feels proper to prize attempts more than dreams. you should have ideals, but you cannot only love an idealized future, you must cultivate a love of effort, too. if you really want something, then the soul must make demands of the body.”—simon sarris
what goal do you want to love into manifestation?
uttarashadha, speaking of goals & effort, brings a lesson about not just planting a seed & watering it (which we do in purvashadha, the previous nakshatra), but continuing to tend to it, nurture it, hold space for the acorn to become a magnificent oak.
it's the tenth lunar day (tithi), the tenth phase of the waning moon, which is connected to doing our dharma, fulfilling our life purpose, what makes our soul sing, allows us to feel in total alignment with the universe. it is often what comes easily, naturally. if you're not sure what your dharma is, look at the patterns in your life, your repetitive actions, read them like runes.
monday is ruled by peaceful, compassionate moon.
the people i admire the most
are the ones who unabashedly
tend to their inner peace.
they do not want to hurt anyone.
they move with kindness.
they make time for self-care and growth.
they do their best to give compassion
to all those who cross their path.
these people make the world lighter.
