Finding Stillness in the Pushya Heat

By @meera_kapoor

It’s mid-July and the air feels heavy with anticipation. With the Sun and Jupiter both sitting in Cancer, specifically in Pushya, I can feel the shift toward nurturing our roots. Pushya is the nakshatra of nourishment, and it’s the perfect time to focus on our family ties.

I’ve been watching the Moon move into Libra, bringing a need for balance into our homes. It’s not always easy to keep the peace when everyone’s nerves are frayed, but try to lean into that gentle Pushya energy this week.

Soon, we’ll be approaching the auspicious days of the monsoon season. I usually check my VedKal app to keep my dates straight for the upcoming festivals, especially since everything moves so quickly.

Don’t forget that Venus is currently in Leo. It’s a bold placement, meaning we might feel a bit more dramatic than usual. Keep things simple with your loved ones. Take a breath, cook a favorite meal, and just be present with the people who matter most. We don’t need grand gestures to make a house feel like a home. Just showing up for each other is enough.

The Moon is currently in Libra, in the Swati nakshatra, which makes today ideal for balancing your professional focus and personal peace. You'll likely feel more decisive if you prioritize harmony in your interactions instead of pushing for immediate, rigid results. Take a moment to settle your mind with a cool, quiet evening, as it’s the best way to handle the restless energy Swati often brings.
