Moon in Purva Phalguni

This tradition watches the Moon rather than the Sun. Which of the twenty-seven mansions it is sitting in today is what this reading is about.

A star of rest and pleasure. Enjoyment is not a detour here; it is the assignment.

A Bhadra tithi, waxing. These are the steady lunar days, traditionally good for anything you want to last.

Try this: put one thing down without finishing it, and notice that nothing breaks.
