Truth or Fiction—What's Your Preference?
The intensity of full moon tomorrow is building: Release what you no longer want to hang onto with love & gratitude!
it's wednesday, october 16, & moon is in pisces, in the starspace (portion of pisces) called revati. pisces creates an environment in which we long to experience our true nature, which, as the bhagavad-gita says, was never born & never dies. that soul longing can, however, be soooo strong & inscrutable that we unconsciously use any means at our disposal, not understanding the difference between checking totally out & checking deeper in: we may opt for drugs or sex or alcohol or shopping or food or netflix or [fill in the blank], thinking this temporary escape from our material/physical reality is "it," when it's really an illusion of our ultimate desire.
"it was not the truth they wanted, but an illusion they could bear to live with."—anaïs nin
revati is ruled by pushan, the cosmic shepherd, the patron saint, you might say, of lost animals, which we have all been at some point, right? this asterism's message is, as ram dass famously said, that we are all just walking each other home. who needs an escort today?
it's the fourteenth lunar day (tithi), the fourteenth phase of the waxing moon, until just about 9 a.m. MDT, then the fifteenth, which means we've got a full moon overnight! which means we are feeling full to bursting with something, or is it just me?! allow the intensity, & it is no joke, b/c the fierceness of kali is in the mix. what do you wish to no longer hold onto? send it love & gratitude & release it like a balloon into the ether!
wednesday is ruled by mercury, who is kind of a badass when it comes to seeking the truth & sharing it—he's def an information-hound, relentless in his pursuit, altho gentle, not dogmatic, about sharing it.
"in a time of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act."—george orwell
with mercury now in relationshipy libra, & libra's ruler, venus, in emotionally deep scorpio, maybe it's time to dive into the truth of our relationships, of what we need-want-desire, to be relationship revolutionaries by being radically honest with ourselves & others. & bear in mind that "radically" does not mean "brutally": both mercury & venus are gentle planets.
bonus track: full moon in aries, in the starspace called ashwini, will bring supertransformational juju. more tomorrow, but you can start pondering what a rebirth might mean for you.
TL;DR
check deeper in, not out out out. • guide or be a guide. • prepare for a transformational full moon! • be a relationship revolutionary by being radically honest with yourself & your people.
& that’s your daily bliss! IN-joy! 🌕🙏✨
