Hello Moonchild :) On March 3rd, we see a Full Moon and a Lunar eclipse. This follows the Solar eclipse that happened on 17th February. While the Solar eclipse was not visible in India, this Lunar eclipse is partially visible. In India it is Phalguna or Vasanta Purnima, a full moon festival marking the end of winter and the start of spring. It coincides with Holi. Holika Dahan that signifies the victory of good over evil happens under this moon. It is also Lakshmi Jayanti, th

It could translate to spending quality tim

Hello Moonchild :) It feels wonderful to connect with you on the first Full Supermoon of the year! Were you able to find some reflection time during the December Full moon to wrap up the year? If not, it is alright, you can still do so. Go back to the year-end reflection that I shared. Do that practice for 2-3 days before following this guidance. This day is significant in an Indian context as Pausha Purnima. On this Full Moon, devotees take a dip in the holy waters at the

Hello Moonchild :) We are on the final Full Moon of the Year (4th December) and it's a Super Moon as well. A conducive time to look back at 2025. If you were following my guidance for the November Full Moon, you may already have changed gears, slowed down and entered reflection territory.
