This morning’s #fullmoon in #Bharani nakshatra (constellation) and spanning into #Krittika (the next nakshatra) reminds us of the consequences of our actions. Bharani lies in #Aries, the zodiac that starts with the nakshatra of #Ashwini. In Ashwini, the soul is impulsive to take action and penetrates creation but in the next nakshatra, the soul bears the fruits of the action. Bharani is symbolised with #yoni, literally means ‘to bear’, is ruled by #Venus and the deity #Yama. All symbology for Bharani refers fierce, and ruthless energy that makes us face the consequence of a particular action. At its highest vibration, Bharani symbolises #creation originating from the female reproductive parts.
The new moon is Libra couple of weeks ago set forth the fight for equality. We then had #Jupiter move into Sagittarius on Nov 4th compelling us towards justice or just actions. Jupiter crossed the gandhaata point (last 1 degrees of Scorpio (water sign) and first 1 degrees of Sagittarius (fire sign)) leading to personal and collective upheaval. Notice the emotional distress and the urge to stand up against injustice. Also notice the internal misery one may go through if unable to speak up for what’s right or just.
#Mercury also went retrograde on October 31 in Scorpio, right now traversing through Libra in the opposite direction w.r.t Earth. Mercury backing up from a water sign (Scorpio) into an air sign (Libra) is making us reevaluate the relationship betweeen our intellect and emotions. Are we too emotional when we speak? Does emotions cloud our rational thinking? Our we so intellectual that we are not in touch with ours or other’s emotions? Are we cerebral and disconnected from our feelings? Do we manipulate other’s emotions through our crafty intellect? We maybe working through any version of these themes. Overall, most of us are reevaluating our intellectual strategies for the battles we are emotionally passionate about - some examples include LGBTQ equality, environmental change, saving the planet, pay disparity, immigration, affordable food and shelter for all, affordable access to medicine, basic level comfort for all - amongst others.
The Full Moon in Bharani brings us the fruits of our actions or inaction. Yama, the God of death is impartial, unswayed, just and maintains balance sheets of all our karmas (actions, inactions and intentions). He is the one who is said to deliver the soul to judgement day. Venus ruling Bharani is also driven by transactions which are equal - like balancing an accounts book. If Venus perceives imbalance, it throws everything off that Venus stands for. In essence, the energies of Yama, Venus, and Bharani nakshatra are all within us. These energies get activated from time to time. It is a great time to weigh the ripple effects of our actions/inactions. We can elevate the current energies available by tuning into how we affect our surroundings and how our surroundings affect us - be it our home, people in life, political scenario or the Earth. We all have the power to create positive change - even if it’s on a nanoscale. The question is, have we given ourselves the permission to do so or the potential consequence of our actions is weighing us down!
Personally, I have been coping with internal misery of not having a voice against certain unjust behaviors that my surroundings have been subjected to due to my immigration status. I told someone today that my immigration status is more important to me at this point than my well-being. The internal suffocation of not being able to stand for equality and justice is enormous. My sincere wish is that all of us have the opportunity to lead a just, empowered, and fulfilling life while creating a positive change in the world.
