This Week's Intention: Allow inner healing, transformation and renewal to take place. Release and purge the darkness in order for new light to emerge. Monday begins with a waning Moon in the 2nd tithi (phase) called Dvitiya. Moon transits Pisces, conjunct Ketu, while in Uttarabhadrapada nakshatra. Rahu and exalted Mercury give their drishti, inviting in a powerful dance between mind and emotions. Healing and transformational themes arrive for the week ahead- especially on the mental and emotional body levels. Be prepared to loosen your grip, to let go and release. As Moon moves through the final sign of the zodiac and the 26th nakshatra on Monday morning, we prepare for a new cycle. Allow release, letting go and transformation. Pour out your cup in the coming days. Ruling deity of Uttarabhadrapada, Ahirbudhnya, is the serpent of the netherworlds. He helps us access our hidden, inner wisdom. It's there, can you find it? It's the hidden, dark and mysterious kind. It will come in flashes- suddenly provoking insight and shifts in perception. If your third eye is closed, you'll miss it. Let Monday continue to offer its awakening support. Keep looking and you'll find what you are seeking. Monday evening, Moon moves to the final nakshatra of the zodiac, Revati, closing out another cycle. What endings need to be attended to? What beginnings are you preparing for? Mars and Venus form exact conjunction today as they continue to move through Cancer. Honor your heart and let the feelings flow. Mars brings cutting and precision which is painful to our softer, gentler side. Water planet Venus, can help us maintain fluidity and movement. Don't let stagnation hold you back. Try to avoid heart burn and heartache by staying in the flow. Use your body wisdom to navigate the emotional body challenges. Get embodied. Join me for my final round of Jyotish Basics classes! Our focus of the month is Healing the Four Bodies through the Wisdom of Jyotish. Sign Up. Tuesday arrives with Moon in Revati nakshatra, Pushan's domain. He assures nourishment on our journey, safety for our path and ease and comfort along the way. Look for resources and support as Pushan is here to offer them. Are you open to receiving what is arriving? The tussle between the emotional body and mental body continues. Strip away the veils of illusion and all that is keeping you from feeling your depth. The feeling body is your true wisdom, your strength and power. Allow feelings to emerge and listen to your emotions for clues. What do you need to invite in for greater nourishment and support on your path? Late afternoon, Moon makes the challenging shift from water (Pisces) to fire (Aries) as he leaps across the difficult gandanta gap- from endings to beginnings. Jupiter gives his drishti and his blessings to Aries, but only if we strip away the false, the illusions. Stand in your power. Be bold and step powerfully into renewal. Mark this time by declaring your intentions for the new cycle. The Ashvini-Kumara twins are here to guide you with their healing support and wisdom. Wednesday offers the possibility for fresh mental body beginnings. Moon continues through Ashwini nakshatra and healing is offered- if we attend to our creativity, self care and rejuvenation. What can you simplify, let go of, release? How can you soften in the heart and invite in more compassion- for your self and others? Can you stay in your power, even as you do so? After noon, Moon shifts to the edgy Bharani nakshatra and we feel a shift in focus. Sensitivity and strength emerge. Can we walk the fine line between these two? Ruling deity, Yama, reminds us of the delicate dance between vulnerability and power. Use restraint to maximize your power and potential. Don't waste your energy or efforts. Attend to self care. Thursday, Moon moves to the third portion of Aries and finishes up its movement through Bharani just after noon. As Moon shifts into Krittika nakshatra, purification and transformation are the catalysts for change and healing. Ruling deity, Agni, god of fire and all things digestion, brings his heat and potent life fire. Simmer, stew and cook away impurities, but don't burn or char them. It will take attention and intention to avoid the burn. Slowly release the inner heat. Stoke your inner flames gently. As Moon jumps into Taurus in the evening, its potency is released. The emotional body arrives into an exalted state- for better or worse. Can you handle the high tides or do you need a life preserver? Saturn gives his drishti (gaze) and amplifies our pain, suffering and grief. Open the valves. Rahu gives his gaze as well, inviting in grande illusion and uncertainty. Is the pain real or false? Last Chance! Join me for my final round of Jyotish Basics classes! Our focus of the month is Healing the Four Bodies through the Wisdom of Jyotish. Sign Up. As Friday arrives, Moon moves into mulitrikona degrees as it continues through Krittika nakshatra. Agni is still supporting our clarification process. Transform, heal, release, repeat. Get clear on what needs to be let go of, then let it fly. Just after noon, Moon shifts to the creative and potent constellation, Rohini. Lord Brahma arrives to support our creative powers, instigate manifestation and activate our life force energy. The clarification and cleaning process from the previous days has cleared the channels for new flow and activation. Consciously remove the blockages that are keeping you from abundance. What is stopping your flow? What powerful action steps need to be taken? The intensity of the previous days and weeks begins to dissipate as the triad of tight conjunctions loosens. Mars and Venus will continue to dance with each other closely, though separating somewhat as they won't be in exact degrees. Mars however is still debilitated until September 15th which brings challenges to actions and emotions. Jupiter and Sun also begin to separate from close conjunction in Leo, lessening the heat and pressure on our inner wisdom and sense of self. Mercury and Rahu also move away from tight conjunction for now. Start to feel the space and open the pathways of awakening and understanding. Allow resources, answers and solutions. Saturday continues with Brahmas creative support and manifestation powers until noon. As Moon slips into Mrigashirsha nakshatra midday, it's time to shift our focus to increasing nourishment through Soma's gifts. There's healing, wisdom, support and life giving resources to be had. Are you listening? Are you able to receive? Your heart and emotional body will be the primary channels for this nectar of life. Keep reaching and extending towards the nourishment you need. Just as Sunday begins, Moon jumps into Gemini, Mercury's sign. Moon finishes up the ninth tithi (phase) called Navami, as the waning Moon settles in. Outside of the gaze of any other planets, Moon can help us feel some inner momentum in the coming days. Check in with your self and do an audit of your life on the four levels of being- mental, emotional, physical and spiritual. What needs to be attended to at this time? At noon, Moon moves to the forceful nakshatra, Ardra, and its ruling deity, Rudra, intensifies our mental/emotional balance. Can you feel the increase from all sides? Now, more than ever, its vital that you listen to your inner signals and watch for the manipulation of chaos. Take your power back and stand in your center, your knowing. This soft center, where your inner wisdom resides, is the place where your power can not be dismantled. Stay true to your knowing. Get grounded. Venus goes direct at 01:28 in Cancer. For well over a month Venus's backwards dance has asked us to re-evaluate relationships, money, creativity and our life force energy. The planet of relationships, creativity, and artistry, Venus is connected to all things feminine and life giving. It offers beauty, fluidity, wealth and life giving powers, most essentially, shakti. Worldly comforts and resources can increase through Venus's benevolence and help us feel more stable in material ways. As Venus continues to move through Cancer, conjunct debilitated Mars, our chest, heart and emotional body center feels the pangs. The planet of feeling, creativity, relationships and all things beautiful and worldly continues to adjust to the high demands of the heart and emotions until September 30th. With debilitated Mars in this sign as well, our heart is in for an emotional ride. The valves are open for an influx of water, feelings, heightened emotions and all the challenges connected to these. Home, heart, land, vehicles, mother and all fourth house matters get amplified. How do you navigate the choppy waters? Will you sink, swim or learn to float? Can you attend to the moving tides and go with the flow? Now is an excellent time to clean up and heal issues with relationships, money, creativity and emotions. Don't fight the tidal waves, but learn to swim with the currents. Venus must now re-trace his steps back through the first part of Leo. As he moves back through Leo on September 30th, he works his way through Magha nakshatra once again- the domain of the ancestors, most notably the father. This increases our attention on power, authority and the need to pay special attention to our personal mythology connected to these themes. As Venus moves through Leo, we can expect passions to increase for relationships and connection, while strong desires may emerge simultaneously. Expect intensified strength, determination and power to materialize, while aggression and agitation may increase as well. The transit of Venus through Leo is the instigation of an unfolding theme that has been ripening within the planets. Working with power and authority dynamics is vital, especially the masculine energy within you. Notice where you are pushing, using excessive force and using an over-active drive to accomplish and succeed. Take time to contemplate the meaning of success from different angles. Your ego may feel challenged by this. How can you soften your action steps? Where can you let go and surrender more? How can you be a winner- on all levels of life? How can you meet your relationships with more compassion- both with yourself and others? This work with power dynamics is especially relevant while Venus enters back into the first portion of Leo- where Jupiter is currently. Sunday's reminder is important through Monday. After noon, Moon shifts to a softer, more sensitive nakshatra, Punarvasu. Aditi's all knowing wisdom offers us insights and awareness that weren't previously available to us. Let her nourishment give you depth, trust and expanded knowing. There is some clean up to do. Listen to your truth. *Timing used is Pacific Standard Time Zone.

Be sure to attend to the nuisances as there are messages arriving about needs for comfort, safety and support. What do you need? Let your heart wisdom guide you. Read more about debilitated Mars in last week's post. Monday begins with a waning Moon in Aquarius, moving through the 4th tithi (phase) and Purvabhadrapada nakshatra. This is the domain of Ajaikapada, or the goat standing on one foot. This can also be interpreted as a form of Shiva standing on one leg, expressing tapas and penance, overcoming challenges and obstacles. Wisdom and knowledge can arrive here, but usually as a result of learning from difficulties. Since Ajaikapada is a Rudra, great strength can also be offered. How can you extract the growth from the challenge? Late morning Moon moves to the last sign of the zodiac, Pisces, joining Ketu here. Let sudden insights and ideas arrive, but attend to mental and emotional sensitivity. After noon, Moon moves to the latter half of the Bhadrapada constellation, Uttarabhadrapada. The serpent of the deep, Ahirbudhnya, arrives to bring deeper awareness and transformation. With Mercury at the edge of Cancer and sandhi (in the gap) the mental body is fragile. Late evening as Moon and Ketu conjunct, emotional body will require extra TLC. Listen closely. Attend to your sacredness. Moon moves away from close conjunction with Ketu Tuesday morning as Mercury leaps into Leo and Ketu's nakshatra, Magha at 05:31. Sensitivity and awakening that starts within the mental and emotional bodies, are alive and well. Spirit can be part of the messenger, but are you too frazzled to hear its wisdom? Grounding and working with feet as a way to feel extra support is essential right now. What can you do to get embodied? Mercury transits Leo until August 23rd- a whirlwind adventure for our mind through the kingly domain of the lion. As Mercury moves through this powerful sign of the Sun, it will conjunct Jupiter and retrograde Venus. Though Mercury and creative Venus are friendly to each other, Jupiter is not fond of these two. His purity and expansive ways need more stability and less worldly shenanigans. The trick in this cycle will be how to blend worlds. Integrate creative, imaginative and relational needs with desires for spiritual, knowledge and wisdom. Can we unite these seemingly opposing forces? This is in fact where maximum creative potential can be found. There are gifts and glory here if you can find the integration, the bridge, between spiritual and worldly. Find nourishment and wealth- not in force, but through languishing in soft landings, pauses and taking time for sacred moments of creativity to sink into your awareness. Pushing, rushing and forcing will be counter-productive, even violent and intrusive to the creative and creation process. Trust in letting go, slowing down and silence. Harvest the riches from stillness and moments of self care. Your mental body and imagination will thank you. Late Tuesday morning, Moon shifts to the final nakshatra of the zodiac, Revati. Endings, releases and letting go arrive today- especially on the mental and emotional body levels. What can you do to support this process and find more releasing? Endings and letting go start Mercury's day, Wednesday, as the Moon finishes up its transit through Pisces. Seek nourishment and gentleness. Find moments of support as Pushan (Revati's ruling deity) can offer assistance for our journey. Late morning Moon hops into Aries and Ashwini nakshatra, ushering in a fresh start. Can you feel the shift and an additional layer of Ketu bringing flashes of insight, awakening and change? Ashwini also brings rejuvenation, healing and transformational powers with it. What balm do you need for what ails you? Jupiter's drishti on the Moon gives some nourishment as well as expansion. Let him offer some soothing wisdom to guide you as this new cycle begins. Today requires extra self care. Make sure you attend to it. Late Thursday morning, Bharani nakshatra and Yama's restraints arrive as Moon moves into the second pada of Aries. Bharani is an interesting mixture of hard and soft, sensitivity and fierceness. It's ruling planet, Venus, is in exact conjunction with Mercury today and the two creatives can provide ample inspiration to us. Channel this powerful creative energy effectively and maximize its potency. Bottle it and sell it. You'll have a winner. Friday mid morning, Moon moves to Agni's constellation, Krittika. Cut away the excess, purify and transform. The sacred fire of life rules the day, supporting change and clarity. Much of this purification must be attended to on the emotional body level. Clear and clean, soften and lean in to what your heart wisdom has to share with you. What can you do to nourish, rather than cut yourself? Around noon, Moon jumps to its sign of exaltation, Taurus, intensifying the feelings and emotions within. Rahu gives his drishti, as does Saturn. Stay out of the shadow and misery with focus and re-direction. Notice the dark and the light providing you with choices. What waves are you riding? Late evening, Moon's intensity softens as it shift into mulitrikona degrees, though still ripe with emotional potency. Are you joining me for my 10 Day Embodiment + Creativity Challenge?! Receive daily inspiration for increasing creativity, joy, embodiment and inner light. Get On the List. Saturday morning, Moon slips into the powerful and creative star, Rohini nakshatra, mid morning. Brahma is the ruling deity here and he brings his creative activation to all who are ready to powerfully work with his creation process. Tap into your creative potential and use this time to get inspired! What creative projects have you been neglecting? Start something! Mid-morning, Sunday, Moon moves to Mrigashirsha nakshatra, Soma's domain. Feel the fluctuations and changes within and find a way to dance with your inner movement and shifting tides. Move towards comfort, nourishment and satisfaction. Honor your life, living and those who have come before you. What symbolic actions inspire ripening and release for you? Step powerfully into your life and move towards the divine nectar of fully being alive. This Week's Intention: Notice your movements and choices. Watch, track and invite in awareness on the mental and emotional levels. Keep moving towards the nourishment of life. The week begins with a very inward feeling. Moon is in its final phase of the waning cycle and inviting us to introspect. Monday, Moon transits its exaltation sign, Taurus, with the fiery combination, Sun and Mars, and the mental body planet, Mercury. Feelings are intense, hot and passionate. The mind is stoked and forceful. With Saturn and Rahu giving their gaze, our mind and emotions get extra pressure and chaos. Creative forces are strong with Rohini nakshatra today, so channel the mental and emotional bodies intentionally. Sun jumps into Gemini mid morning, inviting in a new month of creative potential. Hours later, Mars chases the Sun into Gemini as well. Gemini represents the merging of energies, and the new, third energy that is created as a result. Metaphorically, this connects to the energy of lovers coming together, creating a "third energy" out of their unification. From an artistic perspective, Gemini can represent the artist and their medium, plus the arrival of a "third" energy- or the emerging transcendental experience. The creative energy of Gemini is unstoppable, changeable and always moving. In the coming cycle, merge and connect with new ideas and people, in order to deepen your nourishment, increase wealth and find new resources. How can you extend and expand your reach by joining forces in new ways? A certain dynamism charges us forward into this new cycle with relationships and communication being a primary source of desire. Feel, search, express- while flowing, expanding and creating new pathways. This Sun and Mars cycle will be a time of many new insights, ideas and a very strong imagination and it will give us the potential for new connections, collaborations and relationships. But in order to have space for new relationships, we must let go or loosen attachments to the old. Use writing, the hands, art and expression to get the job done. New Moon, Tuesday June 16 at 09:06 CDT while in Gemini and Mrigashirsha Nakshatra. During the New Moon, movement will be felt on the three levels of your being- mental, emotional and physical- which may invite in a sense of being pulled in too many directions. With three planets in Gemini, Sun, Moon and a sandhi Mars, all in Mrigashirsha nakshatra, a passion for change and growth will be intensifying in the upcoming waxing cycle. The new Moon is conjunct Mars and Sun- who have just arrived in this airy, creative sign known for connection and communication. As Mars and Sun chase each other into Gemini, this sparks a heat wave of creativity, communication and connectivity. Do you want more astrological details about the Moon and the coming waxing cycle?

This week only, I'm sharing a special promotional price + extra special bonuses! Learn More. Moon continues through Mrigashirsha nakshatra today and Soma is the presiding force for us. Attend to inner nourishment and vitality. Create new pathways and channels for sharing, creating and moving forward. Early evening, Moon shifts to Ardra nakshatra and an abrupt shift occurs. Notice how Rudra's energy invites in a certain intensity. How can the nourishment of Soma from earlier in the day protect you and help you keep your balance? Moon continues through Ardra on Wednesday which invites us to listen carefully to Rudra's message. Moon in Gemini and Mercury in Taurus, offer a nice exchange between Taurus and Gemini today. Find ways to express and share in order to get more nourishment and support. Get focused and clear on what you want and need. Don't let the chaos interfere with finding nourishment and support. Notice how intense emotions pulls you off from your center and undermine your self power. Track yourself intentionally today on the mental, emotional and physical levels. Trust your steps and your purpose. Early evening Moon moves to Punarvasu nakshatra and Aditi arrives. See if you feel her wisdom coming through. Midday on Thursday, Moon shifts into its own sign, Cancer, joining exalted Jupiter and Venus here, while continuing to transit Punarvasu nakshatra. Aditi brings her expansive wisdom, a unity consciousness, a feeling of oneness with her. Move towards this oneness, the unified experience of life and self. Trust the holding, the containment of spirit, to guide and protect you. We are one with all, any separateness is an illusion. Where are you feeling separate? Where are you feeling whole? As Moon shifts to Pushya nakshatra early evening, a deepening sense of this holding can offer deeper support to us. Friday is a day of nourishment, if we allow it in. As Moon moves closer to Venus today, our feeling and emotions deepen. What is underneath the waves? What is the emotional body sharing with you about support and stability? Find your rhythm with opening and closing, yes and no, as well as healthy boundaries. Balance comes when we unite the expansive and contractive energies within us. What are you opening to? What are you closing to? As evening approaches, the Moon moves to Ashlesha nakshatra, conjunct Venus and Jupiter. Ketu's drishti can bring flashes of insight and awareness. Can you catch the sparks? Themes of Balance continue during Saturday, the day dedicated to Saturn's energy. Find ways to expand, flow and invite in more ease and grace today. The breath is a perfect metaphor of opening and closing, and the continuous flow of life that it offers. Tame the unruly mind today with consistent attention to its imaginal ways. How can its stories prove to be valuable resources for unlocking your subconscious messages and programing? Get curious and ask the right questions. Ask the mental body what it wants and needs. Just before midnight, Moon leaps to Leo and Magha nakshatra. Sunday is perfect day for celebrating the father's in our lives as well as the solar qualities! Moon transits Leo (ruled by Sun) on a Sunday in the nakshatra of Magha which is dedicated to our ancestors and typically the father's side of our lineage. Saturn's drishti on the Moon shares a contractive feeling and can remind us of grievances and pains. Keep it on the sunny side while attending to any depth and sadness that arrives on the emotional body. Notice how the balancing factors of open and close from the previous days can help support this process. Summer Solstice is June 21st. This marks the beginning of summer in the Northern hemisphere, as well as the longest day of light in the year. Monday arrives with creative life force energy activated! Let the shakti stir you and expand your vision! Do you want more astrological details about the Moon and the coming waxing cycle?

This Week's Intention: Surf the abundant waves of feeling and fluidity. Channel these swelling tides into creative acts in order to maximize the potent abundance available.
The week begins with a waxing Moon in Aries in the sixth tithi. Moon continues to fill and transits through Taurus, Gemini and into Cancer this week. Our emotional containers expand, enlivening waves of deep feelings, rich sensations and maximum creativity. Monday brings transformations to our creativity and relationships. We may feel some restrictions, a sense of restraint or holding back in some way. What is keeping you contracted? What are you withholding? Now is the time to crack yourself open and face your own resistance. As Moon moves into Krittika nakshatra on Tuesday, we feel a shift in our passion, a stirring within that brings clarity, precision and more focus. Themes of transformation continue, but a sense of purification arrives to assist us with our inner change. Get dedicated and simplify. Once Moon shifts into Taurus, its sign of exaltation, early Tuesday morning, we begin to feel a swelling of our inner tides, yet restriction and uncertainty simultaneously. Keep moving towards the nourishment. The more focus and clarity you can create, the more abundant you will feel. Use innovation to maximize your prosperity. Moon shifts into Rohini nakshatra early on Wednesday, inviting us to increase creativity, to focus our manifestation skills, and to awaken our inner abundance. Move towards the nourishment. Clarify your needs. Ask for what you want. Clear away the illusions, shadows and confusion in order to fully open and receive. Last day for early bird registration! Don't miss out on my March Jyotish Basics Classes for transformation and healing. Register Now. Early morning on Thursday, a stronger more passionate level of awareness seeps in as Moon shifts into Mrigashirsha nakshatra. Drink in the soma! How are you utilizing your creative powers, your creative flow? Channel it! Reach out, spread your wings and soar! Don't let worry, tightness, contraction and restriction keep you from feeling fully alive. Don't let the mental body stop your flow! Friday morning brings a rush of energy! What kind of energy are you feeding? Stormy weather or excitement and enthusiasm? The powers of Rudra rules the day as Moon moves into Ardra nakshatra. Feelings are extra intense today. Big movement and emotional waves. Are you getting lost in the choppy currents? Find the shore, get grounded, put your feet on solid earth. Stand your ground, find your center and let the intensity swirl around you. Put your power to good use and channel it effectively. Create something with this surge of energy! Don't miss out on my March Jyotish Basics Classes for transformation and healing. Friday is the last day to join! Register Now. Saturday brings the calm after the storm once Moon shifts into Punarvasu nakshatra mid morning. Goddess Aditi soothes us with expanded wisdom, new awareness and shifts in consciousness. What did you learn this week? What has opened? What is moving through you in new ways? What powerful shifts are occurring for you? Don't let the mental body rule you. Get into your physical body, work directly with somatic wisdom and open to your inner awareness. Let the expansion in. Time for a 3 level check-in? Early Sunday Morning, Moon moves to its own sign of Cancer, joining retrograde Jupiter here. Themes of expansion, deeper feelings, opening and swelling inner tides continue. Watch out for flooding! How are you channeling this intense flow of life force energy? There is deep nourishment to be had, but can you absorb the nutrients coming to you? Keep it simple right now. Less is more and truly more potent. Extract joy from the nourishment arriving. Where do you feel this in your body? Keep bringing your awareness to this feeling and harvest its messages. Need some guidance? Use this podcast. The week ends with Moon in the 12th tithi, expanding and filling as we near the full Moon on the 5th. Themes of nourishment and abundance carry us through Monday morning. *Transits are calculated using Pacific Standard Time. Moon is waxing and the week starts off with Moon entering the beginning of the zodiac, Aries. Fresh beginnings and new starts are here! Mercury is retrograde, as is Jupiter, which makes for a sensation of expanding in reverse. Use this time for clean up and organization. *** As of this week, I'll be shifting my posts to reflect my current time zone- Pacific Standard. Please note the changes and updated time difference in regard to your own location. *** Monday, January 26th Today's Intention: Re-new and become new by re-imagining the old. Just minutes after midnight, Moon hops into Aries and Ashwini nakshatra, inviting in the Ashvini Kumara twins. They offer us healing, rejuvenation- and increased creativity as a result. Take action steps today that offer healing and restoration to you. With Moon out of the gaze of other planets, we may feel an increased awakening, room for possibility and greater expansion. The expansion is possible through re-tracing your steps, going over old territory, inviting in the old, but restructuring it to make it new. Moon moves to Bharani nakshatra at 21:39 PST. Tuesday, January 27th Today's Intention: Plot, hunt and focus on your goals with tenacity. Moon transits Bharani nakshatra, Yama and Venus's domain. As the king of dharma, Yama determines whether our efforts are worthy of our time in this life, or whether we missed the mark. His ability to restrain us from overindulgence can keep us from misery. There is a certain one-pointedness available to us today, as well as a warrior spirit. Make sure your energy and efforts align with your long term goals and desires- the ones that have depth and purpose for your life. The auspicious ninth tithi or Moon phase, Navami, is enlivened today. It is connected to the Sun and the deity Naga, which can help us awaken some depth and awareness. Venus moves to Satabisha nakshatra at 20:51 PST, enlivening Varuna, the deity who rules over judgement and deep vision. Varuna handles Natural Law and enforces them by handing us our karmas, our actions and re-actions. It is very important to pay close attention to subtleties at this time, to deeply listen, in order to awaken to the truths of Nature. This awareness can help us re-establish a sense of order in our lives. Not out of fear or punishment, sacrifice or pain, but because we naturally align with Nature and her laws of wisdom and truth. As Venus transit through Satabisha, our inner creative waters can find more grace, fluidity and intensity simultaneously. Use this time to make an impact on your life. Take strong action and do what you know is best for yourself and others. Study the transits, learn the wisdom of jyotish, gather insights for your healing and transformation in my new class series: Jyotish Basics for Transformation and Healing. First class is this Sunday and registration ends Friday. Sign Up. Moon moves to Krittika, near the edge of Aries, at 21:36 PST. Wednesday, January 28th Today's Intention: Wield your sword with confidence. Moon transits Krittika nakshatra and jumps into Taurus at 03:41 am PST, becoming exalted for a few hours- until late morning. Agni is the ruler of this constellation and offers us a sharp transformation through purification processes. The emotional body fullness will be felt strongly so prepare for emotional diligence today. With Saturn giving direct gaze to the Moon from Scorpio, we can expect an underlying depression or fear to settle in. Mars and Rahu also give their gaze to the Moon, offering a strong edge with a dose of shadow. The mental body plays a role in the experience of the emotions today because of Mercury's conjunction with the Sun (Krittika's ruling planet); this increases our mental sharpness. We can direct this focus into meaningful tasks, or let it take us down the rabbit hole. Don't get caught up in "shoulda, coulda, woulda" today. Be diligent with your 3 level check-in so that you can easily navigate your inner dialogue. Need a reminder about the three levels? Moon shifts to Rohini at 22:06 PST. Thursday, January 29th Today's Intention: Make a greater creative impact today. Moon is considered in its mulitrikona sign as it transits through the remainder of Taurus. This is a place that the Moon can more fully express its creativity, sensuality, charisma and playfulness. Mulitrikona placement offers a planet the ability to express their energy at 75%. As Moon transits through Rohini, creative themes are exemplified. Rohini is ruled by lord Brahma, the ultimate God expression of creativity. By now, we have been feeling the refinement process of Moon receiving gaze from Saturn, Rahu and Mars. Today, we have a more porous experience, and less rigidity than yesterday. Let the wisdom seep into your pores. How is the struggle softening you, awakening you, opening you to possibility? Use this to spark your creative energy and focus your expansion efforts. Expand your creative channels and let the life pulse through you. Moon shifts into Mrigashirsha nakshatra at 23:06 PST. Friday, January 30th Today's Intention: Extend your branches into new realms. Mars moves to Purvabhadrapada today, enlivening Ajaikapada, the domain of Shiva, lord of the dance. It will be our tenacity, our warrior spirit and our action steps, that will help us accomplish seemingly impossible feats in the coming weeks. Ajaikapada stands with one foot firmly grounded, rooted in the earth, while the other foot is lifted, poised and ready to take a step. This represents continual movement, growth and change, as well as balancing the impossible. Symbolically, one foot is firmly grounded in the now, while the other is lifted into the unknown. Use very conscious action steps in the coming two weeks. Be diligent, conscious, strategic and poised for action. Moon transits through the latter half of Taurus and is in Mrigashirsha nakshatra today. The deity of this nakshatra is Soma, while the symbol is a deer head with large, reaching antlers. The ruling planet of Mrigashirsha is Mars, while the deity, Soma is connected to the Moon. The combination of elements and symbols here expresses much movement, change and growth as a result of the constant movement. Like antlers that continue to spread out and expand, then drop off, only to re-grow, we can connect with these cycles of renewal for our own life expansion. This is literally how we are fed and nourished by life. Last day to register for my new class offering, Jyotish Basics for Transformation and Healing!! Register here. Moon moves to Gemini at 11:45 am PST. Saturday, January 31st Today's Intention: Channel the power of your inner volcano and move mountains. Moon shifts into Ardra nakshatra just after midnight at 00:31 am PST, inviting in Rudra's powerful and tenacious strength and grande emotional waves. He moves things with his strength and ferocity which often stirs our anger and rage. Anger is connected to our power source within and must be treated as a flashing red light of awakening. What slumber do you need to awaken from? What is holding you back? What part of you is holding you back from experiencing your fullness? Now is the time to clear and clean up the mental body. The old stories and illusions that are keeping you from realizing your full potential. Track your mental body diligently today and see where it is causing eruptions. Sunday, February 1st Today's Intention: Expand what you think is possible. Moon moves to Punarvasu nakshatra at 02:21 am PST, and Aditi is ushered in. To smooth out the ruffles of yesterday, Aditi arrives to create expansion and awareness from the rubble within. She knits us back together with her wholeness, her unity consciousness. From this wholeness we get our needs met, we get the nourishment we need and our needs are taken care of. Jyotish Basics for Transformation and Healing begins today at 3pm PST. Did you register? Moon moves to Cancer at 21:56 PST. Monday, February 2nd Moon transits through its own sign, Cancer, with retrograde Jupiter here as well. Both receive drishti from conjunct Sun and Mercury. Nourishment deepens as we reflect on our deepest needs and desires. What serves us and what is not serving us? What can we clean up within our heart in order to clean up our life and properly expand? My Jyotish Basics Classes begin this Sunday, February 1st! Don't miss out on these transformational and healing classes. Get the details.
