✧ Miracles _/♥\_ day 7 & 8 (of 15) ~> March 9th


On the 7th day the Buddha created dharma wheel connections; and thunder on the 8th day frightened those who had no faith to flee, so only those who had trust in the Buddha remained. The gods then showered them with flowers. *•.¸(*•.¸♥¸.•*´)¸.•*´

_/☆ \_ Interestingly, from the first day until the 8th (from New Moon to 1st Quarter) Buddha’s miracles are known as ‘competition days’, in as much as Gautama Buddha rose to challenges set by other doctrines. The days 8-15 (of the lunar cycle, from 1st quarter to Full Moon) are non-competitive. The day of seed's action, i.e. the 1st dayS of the New Moon are seen as competitive because the Spring seed requires dynamic courage - as well as the right conditions - to break through it's pod and sprout through various obstacles, to expand, grow, and struggle to establish earthy roots that enable it to reach up into the LoveLight. In the second part of a lunar cycle, the Moon's reflection of Sunlight is brighter and a plant is more easily established, so it can grow in both, during the day and at night, blossoming with fulfillment during the Full Moon, 16thMarch.

☆ Today's Moon in Cancer is also approaching a conjunction with Jupiter, the Cosmic Guru. The star you see next to the Moon tonight is actually Jupiter, with both at the center of the Summer Circle (fixed stars). The sign Cancer marks the Summer Solstice, on June 21st, and the exalted Jupiter in Cancer provides a perspective; in the sign of the tenacious Crab, both the emotional Moon and Jupiter now highlight security and the nurturing one receives from family as well as teachers. Note that today/tonight/tomorrow could provide insight as to what exactly you are cultivating: faith, for instance, or trust, family or an education - and whatever it is that is growing in the longer scheme of things, this weekend is for getting a better idea of the shape it will take in order to culminate by the Summer SOLlstice. *•.¸(*•.¸♥¸.•*´)¸.•*´
