Buddha Full Moon
By Veronica G. Hartman
This full moon is highly significant as it marks the annual celebration of Wesak which marks the high-point in the spiritual year, for it is said that at this time each year, Buddha returns to the physical plane for a brief moment, bringing an inflow of life and spiritual stimulation to vitalize all of humanity. The Moon will be at nineteen degrees of Scorpio, opposing the Sun at nineteen degrees of Taurus. The Sabian Symbol for the Moon is suggestive of transmitting information or knowledge regarding hopes, wishes, and dreams. The Sun’s position shines its Light on enormous potential emerging through creativity. Venus and Mars are both in Aries, ready to move forward with impulsive actions, while Mercury is retrograde in Taurus, delivering the message that there may not be enough available information to move forward on.
Yes, once again, there is a push/pull energy in the sky that is mirrored on earth as a feeling of driving with the brakes on. Certainly, not an easy way to arrive at one’s destination. What if everyone just decided to stop for a few moments when the Moon becomes full at 11:02PM CDT to take a deep breath of Life, exhaling all of the drama, emotions, and thoughts that have filled the airwaves since October of 2008? Is it possible that for a few moments, the world would be at peace?
This full moon is the mirror of the lunar eclipse that occurred on November 8, 2003, heralded as the Harmonic Concordance, and is a reminder of that amazing moment when the Star of David was formed in the sky. The Harmonic Concordance symbolized the possibility of Ascension through the transformation of our stuff and the opportunity to choose to live a life of quality. This full Moon is an opportunity to take personal inventory of values and what gives meaning to life for the whole of humanity.
There is a world prayer that sums it up nicely called The Great Invocation by Alice Bailey and Djwhal Khul.
The Great Invocation
From the point of Light within the Mind of God
Let light stream forth into the minds of men.
Let Light descend on Earth.
From the point of Love within the Heart of God
Let love stream forth into the hearts of men.
May Christ* return to Earth.
From the centre where the Will of God is known
Let purpose guide the little wills of men –
The purpose which the Masters know and serve.
From the centre which we call the race of men
Let the Plan of Love and Light work out
And may it seal the door where evil dwells.
Let Light and Love and Power restore the Plan on Earth.
From a personal perspective, Life is precious; it goes by quickly, so take the time to smell the roses while they are in bloom.
(No grammatical changes were made to The Great Invocation as this is the original version.)
