Full Moon Festivals

In the eso­teric tra­di­tion, we are told that there are three full moons that attract the atten­tion of Great Beings Who per­form hier­ar­chi­cal med­i­ta­tions. These are the full moons of Aries, Tau­rus and Gemini.

They try to pen­e­trate the Cen­ter where the Will of God is known and pro­duce com­mu­ni­ca­tion and inte­gra­tion between the head cen­ter and heart cen­ter of our planet. They chan­nel their dynamic spir­i­tual ener­gies through the Plan­e­tary Hier­ar­chy and then toward human­ity through our seven fields of human endeavor.

Thus the three full moons link the liv­ing Christ (Fes­ti­val of Res­ur­rec­tion), Bud­dha (Fes­ti­val of Wesak) and human­ity (Fes­ti­val of Good­will.)

Every year new ener­gies descend upon Earth to uplift mankind to a higher state of aware­ness and freedom.

Med­i­tat­ing dur­ing these time espe­cially will increase the influ­ence of spir­i­tual ener­gies and form stronger avenues between Hier­ar­chy and humanity.

The theme of these full moons is Communication.

How­ever, uneven, imbal­anced and inac­cu­rate com­mu­ni­ca­tion with higher ener­gies cre­ates numer­ous prob­lems in one’s per­son and one’s life. If you are unpre­pared or unready to receive a high volt­age of energy, it is wise to sim­ply work on your­self to remove any emo­tional and men­tal hangups, hin­drances or habits.

Radi­at­ing love, joy and higher virtues will have a ben­e­fi­cial effect whether you prac­tice for­mal medi­a­tion or not.

If you wish to improve your means of receiv­ing, assim­i­lat­ing and express­ing these higher ener­gies consider

  • Puri­fy­ing your vehi­cles of expres­sion. For exam­ple, how do you express your­self emo­tion­ally and men­tally? Are you quick to anger and judge? Do you make your friends and fam­ily feel guilty?
  • Syn­the­siz­ing and assim­i­lat­ing the impres­sions you may receive. Is your home becom­ing more beau­ti­ful? Are you singing for no rea­son? Do waves of unex­pressed emo­tion wash over you giv­ing you goose­bumps? These are signs of assim­i­la­tion that often can­not be expressed in words.
  • Choos­ing a bet­ter means of expres­sion; one that min­i­mizes fric­tion and wasted energy. A mother knows this well. With a mere look and shake of her head, the child responds imme­di­ately with­out tears or tantrum. Why? Because she chose to raise her level of expression.

Ulti­mately, the goal is to com­mu­ni­cate from the Intu­itional plane whereby we com­mu­ni­cate tele­path­i­cally and can lift human­ity to a higher level of aware­ness through our thoughts.
