Moon Diary 1.30.14

Friday is associated with Venus.

Venus is a rajasic and benefic planet, and governs romance, beauty, sensuality, passion, comforts, luxuries, wealth, and the bedroom. It is the significator of romantic relationships in a vedic astrology chart.

Today is a Bhadra day – Bhadra means blessed.

Today is the 12^th day of the waxing Moon, Shukla Dwadashi, and the deity is Vishnu.

Vishnu is know as the Paramatman (supreme soul) and is regarded as a major god in Hinduism and Indian mythology. He is thought of as the preserver of the universe.

The Moon is in the sign of Gemini, ruled by Mercury, and also in the Nakshatra of Mrigashira, ruled by Mars. The symbol for Mrigashira is the deer’s head, and there’s a sense of someone with the intuitive gift of being able to “sniiff out” people and feelings and vibes.

So it is a blessed day – feeling the curiosity and expression (Mercury), feeling the power (Vishnu), feeling blessed (Bhadra), feeling the energy of action (Mars), feeling the love (Venus).

This is the kind of day where you can hit the ground running. A Thelma and Louise day! There’s nothing holding you back, save your own mind. If you’ve been holding back up to now, throw off hesitation and doubt and just go for it. Make plans, celebrate, be social, work extra hard – you can handle it today – go the extra mile for someone you love.

You’ll be able to make decisions easily today – just sniff out the vibe, follow your intuition, use your discernment as to what to say, what to do, and where to go.

Traditionally, an auspicious day for all ceremonies and events.
