According to Esoteric Astrology, 12 Full Moon festivals are celebrated every year. The most significant of these full moons are the Aries, Ta**us and Gemini Full Moons.
Aries falls at the occasion of Easter, also known as ‘Festival of the Christ.’ It is connected with the Love aspect of God and serves as an opportunity to purify before the Wesak, which is the Full Moon of Ta**us.
Many ceremonies and festivals have been developed around the energies of Aries, from Jewish Passover and Christian Easter to Ostara in Scandinavia, and Balinese Nyepi.
If we look at the essence behind these festivals, we find purification, renewal and a fresh start at the core of all. There is great emphasis on a fresh start, a new beginning, a new life.
Easter incorporates all of the elements of Aries, namely change, a new start, removing of the old in order to bring in the new, and purification. The resurrection from the tomb of matter and the concept of being ‘born again’ echoes the Aries energy of a ‘new life‘, a fresh start into a new, expanded awareness of being.
Therefore, it is highly important to accept the energies of purification and renewal with full receptivity and take this one month until the Wesak Full Moon as an opportunity to prepare ourselves to become instruments of service to mankind through the Wesak Meditation.
Happy Easter, from all of us.
