Bloom

Tomorrow night we enter the illumination of a full moon in Pushya. Now I want to talk numerology (this is the most mathematics you'll ever read from me) - 2024 is an 8 year. 8 is ruled by Saturn. Pushya is the 8th nakshatra (or lunar mansion). Pushya is also ruled by Saturn. Saturn is the lord of time, karma and lessons to do with these. Now 2024 is a start slow, work hard, and achieve big kind of year. This is a get serious year. Long term changes. What you reap you sow. Things may be delayed but they are not denied. Patience is required but so is commitment.

Ok now that is off my chest I shall put my calculator away (and my limited numerology knowledge) - and really there was no math involved other than me saying the same number a few times and throwing some self help comments your way. But back to Pushya. A Pushya full moon is asking you to worship something. Put in the hard work and raise yourself up. For when you do this like a mother feeding her child milk you will be nourished and supported by the world. Really this is a lovely full moon (I won't talk about the eclipses to come this year...just yet). With Mars and Mercury together in Sagittarius we are thinking and starting to act towards our higher dreams. With Pluto and Sun close in Capricorn (yes in the actual sky Pluto is still in the early degrees of Capricorn) we are transforming ourselves into something new which takes integrous hard work.

But even with all this hard work and seeking our higher ideals this full moon hopefully will hold you. Like a mother embracing her child while it sleeps after a feed in content bliss this is the energy to cultivate within yourself. With all the change, fear and expectation of the past few months in some way this lunar illumination will shine in a balm of love and containment to remind you like a flower there is time to grow and there is time to bloom. Happy blooming.

Stay light,
Mark :)
