Guru Purnima

This Friday night/Saturday morning (depending on your location in our world), we will bask in the glow of a special full moon, known as Guru Purnima. Purnima = full moon, Guru = dispeller of darkness, or the one that shines Light into the shadows.


Occurring in the star sign (nakshatra) of Uttara Ashada, this full moon heightens our ability to be present with what is. Her invitation to us is to witness the ever-changing nature of reality, constant ebb and flow of our experience - our emotions, our attention, our desires. To walk the middle path illuminated by her Light. This is where liberation occurs.


This is an auspicious full moon as it is conjunct our old, wise guru planet, Saturn, in his own house of Capricorn. Cosmic energy is fully supporting, increasing the potential for spiritual awakening when one creates space to Be, with a heart of devotion and receptivity, meeting ourselves fully.


We are invited to use this energy to go deep into our own awareness through spiritual practices that align us with our dharma, the highest expression of our soul, anchoring our thoughts and emotions in the ever present moment. Taking time to spend in silent meditation, discovering the sacred inner union between masculine and feminine energies, will elevate our spiritual maturity. 


This is also a great time to honor the teachings and teachers that have helped guild us on our path back Home to ourself. Taking time in your sacred space to offer gratitude for the many blessings of experience, wisdom of it all, helps ripen our maturity, seeing the beauty of it all. How blessed are we! Jai Ma! Om Chandraya Namo Namaha! Om Namaha Shiva!
