Full Flower Moon Farmer's Almanac
The Wesak Moon rises this
Friday evening, the most spiritually potent full moon of the year. In
Buddhism, the holy day of Wesak celebrates the birth, enlightenment and
death of the Buddha. Millions around the world observe this sacred
alignment with special prayers and meditation.
In 1966, the Lama Govinda poetically described the scene:
"On
this night a wondrous sight is seen by those who are present. The Full
Moon rises like a fiery dome over the icy crests of Mount Kailash ...
Heaven and Earth are connected ... projecting a flood of light into the
world of man. The Enlightened Ones and their retinue are believed to
descend on the rays of the moon ... to bless the faithful by their
luminous presence. It is like a rite of transcendental communion ... a
truly universal Mass ..."
Wesak is sacred communion. In the milky
glow of the Wesak Moon, we grow in consciousness, grow in love. The
lotus blooms within the heart of humanity.
In esoteric
teachings, Wesak is a focal point for the ascended realms and
incarnated initiates to join in communion, linking Heaven and Earth for
the benefit of all beings. Enter the temple of Shambala, meeting point
of Heaven and Earth, for guidance, initiation, enlightenment.
Timing and Ritual
TheMoon swells to full at 9:01 PM Pacific Friday, May 8 (12:01 AM Eastern
Saturday, May 9) Observance is appropriate throughout the period
leading up to and just after the Full Moon as the spiritual energy
culminates, then disseminates, through the lunar portal. This is an
ideal time for prayer and meditation in service to the collective.
In
Scorpio, the Moon ushers us throught the portal of death and rebirth,
transforming us at the deepest levels as we release the past. Jupiter,
the guide and teacher, is aligned with spiritual Neptune and healing
Chiron. Hearts are opened and healed under this influence, our souls
laid bare. We re-emerge cloaked in the gowns of spiritual awareness.
