This Full Moon is one that has not occurred in 19 years! This lunar month having this Full Moon occur in this star or Sravana 'Shravan Purnima.' This is a very auspicious Full Moon, ripe with spiritual abundance and and sacred energy. There is no coincidence here.
This is a Full Moon that will help illumine your path, bestow happiness, strengthen your connection with the divine, and fill your heart and cleanse your mind. This Full Moon makes higher states of consciousness easier to access.
At the same moment as this Full Moon, Saturn is retrograde and Venus is retrograde. Maturity in relationships and the role of the feminine in your life is getting a double take. Later this month, August 23, Mercury joins the retrograde party with three planets in retrograde motion in the sky. This is a lot of rethinking- redoing- recommitting and changing things up. It can be a lot, things may not feel clear and its because it is a time to churn up the unresolved in-order to create a firm resolve in your movement into the future.
Sravana Full Moon can make people hypersensitive and glued to computer, phones and TV. Peel yourself away from screens and connect with yourself. What we expose ourselves to this Full Moon is especially important.
Take advantage of this Full Moon to:
Notice where you are hypersensitive in your life.
Demonstrate your generosity, by sharing and giving; resources, your time or kind words.
Learn something new, to be a teacher, you must be a student.
Avoid gossiping, and jealous tendencies.
