No Mud, No Lotus
Moon is in Cancer + it's Mars' day: Indulge your most divine feminine energy (regardless of gender); get physical.
it's tuesday, december 17, & moon is in cancer, in the starspace (pie slice of sky overlapping gemini & cancer) called punarvasu until midday, then pushya. we discussed the head-heart conundrum yesterday—how'd that go for you? have any realizations about which holds sway? for most people, it's our head—if you're an exception, yay for you! but/& cancer, which is literally the chest of the zodiac, the protective container for our heart, gives us an opportunity (for two & a half days, anyhoo) to work our heart muscle hard, to feeeeeeel into our most maternal unconditionally loving self, regardless of gender. we all have masc & fem energy, which isn't dependent on our parts, on how we express/identify. indulge, tap into, your divine fem!
punarvasu is the starry conduit between gemini's head & cancer's heart, the light & hopefulness, the sense of renewal after ardra's storms, the feeling of being wrapped in the arms of the universal mother, the one who gives birth to all our divine qualities. pushya nourishes all those divine qualities, all the goodness, all the bestness within us, & reminds us that what & how something grows is a reflection of how & what we nourish. like a lotus that is rooted in mud but blossoms into magnificence, we, too, can, with TLC, blossom into magnificence from the muck of our own limitations, thanks to that dark, fertile medium.
it's the third lunar day (tithi), the third phase of the waning moon, which supports being as flexible as gumby—like, um, if you planned to head out early to finally grab a ski day & a migraine changed your plans! & guess what? the quality of this tithi is ... "pusha," which = nourishing, & supports us in nourishing our full moon intention into sustainability, give it legs. & it not only resonates well with mars, so tuesday, but does so auspiciously: the one-two punch of the third tithi + mars is a knockout for accomplishing what we mean to. how will you use this auspiciousness? what will you do with your not-ski day?!
tuesday is ruled by mars, yogi & athlete. it’s a good day to get physical & move energy through your bod. do warrior pose; hike, run, ski (!); heck, even rake leaves—especially if you're feeling emotionally hotted up, lest you act out. b/c mars is still (& seemingly forever) in heart-centered cancer, & emotions just frustrate him.
TL;DR
how do you express unconditional love? • what are you nourishing & how are you nourishing it? • we have a one-two punch of auspicious energy to accomplish what we mean to. • get into your bod: do yoga; hike, ski, run; rake leaves.
& that’s your daily bliss! IN-joy! 🌖🙏✨
