Take Notes! Pick One! Surrender!
Moon is in Gemini + it's Venus' day: It's all about the journey, not the destination; make art, make peace, make love.
it's friday, may 2, & moon is in gemini, in the starspace (pie slice of gemini sky) called punarvasu. gemini is a rajasic sign, meaning it is governed by desire & activity, by the passion to explore new realms, discover new ideas, just b/c we can, just b/c that's where our curiosity leads us. under the sway of gemini, it's all about the journey—there is no destination. gemini is also an air sign, so you may be traveling in myriad directions. do take notes!
i am not going to give you a destination.
i can only give you a direction —
awake, throbbing with life,
unknown, always surprising, unpredictable.
i’m not going to give you a map.
i can give you only a great passion to discover.

punarvasu means "the return" (punar) "of the light" (vasu), as in, after it rains the sun comes out, there is a sense of renewal, of hope & inspiration, which may have been tested by the storms of ardra. this asterism is ruled by aditi, the mother of the twelve solar deities—of so much light!—whose name means "infinite," "unbounded." while inspiration may flow from us unbounded, our lesson is to consciously make creative effort—pick one!—if we want to turn our inspiration into reality, bring it out of the ether into form.
it's the sixth lunar day (tithi), the sixth phase of the waxing moon, which has the quality of passion, like gemini & friday, & gives us the ability to make something as hard & brilliant as a diamond, which punarvasu would love. however, the combo of punarvasu + sixth tithi + friday isn't auspicious, so save your most important project for another day.
friday is ruled by venus, planet of love, peace & art, who is still in pisces, where she is exalted, meaning she is vibing at the highest frequency, operating with utmost intelligence. pisces invites transcendence, which only happens through sacrifice & surrender. for countries at war or loggerheads to make a peace deal, come to an agreement, both sides need to sacrifice something, give a little. so in romantic relationships, both people have to compromise to reach higher heights. so in art. if you have been holding back in venusian realms, there's never been a better time to let go, surrender. what's the best that could happen?!
TL;DR
let your passions lead you by the nose. • allow inspiration to flow through you, but/& do guide it. • punarvasu + sixth tithi + friday is not a combo for success, so save your most important project for another day. • how might you surrender to achieve higher heights in love or art?
& that’s your daily bliss! IN-joy! 🌓🙏✨
