Releasing and Revealing: Embracing the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Hasta Nakshatra

As the celestial dance of the cosmos unfolds, we find ourselves on the brink of a powerful astrological event—the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurring on Monday, March 25th, at 1 am MST. This potent alignment, taking place in the mystical Hasta Nakshatra within Sidereal Virgo, heralds a profound moment of release and revelation. Let us delve into the significance of this lunar eclipse and explore how it invites us to embrace transformation and renewal.

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth aligns between the Sun and the Moon, casting its shadow upon the luminous orb of the Moon. This is considered to be a powerful event putting a spotlight on the areas that have been hidden or that are ready to be seen. It’s the cosmic phenomenon represents the interplay between light and shadow, illumination and concealment. As the Moon traverses through the shadow of the Earth, we are invited to journey inward and confront the hidden aspects of ourselves that yearn to be acknowledged and released. As eclipses have a magnifying effect, this is a wonderful time to engage in spiritual and personal practices: yoga, abhyanga (self massage), tapping, reiki, acupuncture, yin yoga,  journaling, grounding breath work, intention setting, anything that encourages flow, as well as focused visualizations before and then meditating around the height of the eclipse around 1:12am MST. Personally I will do these spiritual and self care practices before bed and then meditate when I wake up.

The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurs within the sacred confines of Hasta Nakshatra, the lunar mansion associated with healing, transformation, and skillful action. Represented by a hand, Hasta Nakshatra embodies the power to manifest our intentions and shape our destiny through disciplined effort and unwavering determination. Under the influence of Hasta Nakshatra, we are called to embrace the healing potential within ourselves and extend a helping hand to those in need, and reach for things that connect us to our creative energy, like painting, cooking, massage, crafting, gardening, being in nature.

Sidereal Virgo, the zodiac sign governing this lunar eclipse, embodies the qualities of purity, discernment, and service. Ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication and analysis, Virgo encourages us to refine our thoughts, purify our intentions, and align our actions with our highest ideals. This is a powerful time for heart and mind connections, listen and trust your internal nudges you are feeling. As the Full Moon illuminates the sign of Virgo, we are invited to engage in acts of self-care, introspection, and service to others, purifying our minds, bodies, and spirits in preparation for spiritual growth and evolution.

Against the backdrop of Hasta Nakshatra and Sidereal Virgo, the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on March 25th brings forth the theme of release and reveal. This celestial alignment encourages us to let go and release old patterns, self limiting beliefs, and attachments that no longer serve our highest good – maybe its self criticism, underestimating yourself or your potential – allowing space for new beginnings and opportunities to emerge. As the veil between the seen and unseen worlds thins, we are invited to reveal our authentic selves, shining the light of truth and transparency into the darkest corners of our being.

To support yourself during this time besides your spiritual and personal practices we talked about earlier you can also do clearing practices (I do have a clearing and grounding practice on my You Tube channel, it may also be helpful to declutter your home and cleansing your space physically and energetically to that you feel more supported around this full moon eclipse.

As we stand on the threshold of the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Hasta Nakshatra Sidereal Virgo, let us embrace the transformative energies at play and surrender to the flow of cosmic wisdom. Let us release the burdens of the past with grace and compassion, trusting in the process of renewal and rebirth that awaits us. May this lunar eclipse be a catalyst for profound healing, empowerment, and awakening, guiding us towards greater alignment with our divine purpose and highest potential.

Here are some questions to consider during the Full Moon in Hasta Nakshatra:

  • What are you inspired to do?
    • Reflect on the passions, dreams, and aspirations that stir your soul. What activities or pursuits bring you joy, fulfillment, and a sense of purpose? Allow the radiant energy of the Full Moon in Hasta Nakshatra to ignite your creative spark and inspire you to take bold steps towards manifesting your dreams.
  • What areas of life are asking to be cleaned up and re-envisioned?
    • Take stock of your life and identify any areas that feel stagnant, cluttered, or in need of renewal. Are there relationships, habits, or patterns that no longer serve your highest good? Embrace the transformative energy of the Full Moon to release old baggage, declutter your space, and re-envision a brighter, more aligned future.
  • What’s been stopping you from moving forward? Is that still relevant?
    • Explore the internal and external barriers that have been holding you back from pursuing your goals and aspirations. Are these obstacles rooted in fear, self-doubt, or limiting beliefs? Take this opportunity to reassess whether these barriers are still relevant or if it’s time to break free from their grip and step into your power.
  • What are you able to consistently do to help move closer to your goal?
    • Identify actionable steps that you can take to propel yourself forward on your journey. Cultivate habits, routines, and practices that support your growth and align with your aspirations. Consistency is key, so commit to showing up for yourself each day and taking small, intentional steps towards your goals.
  • Consider reconnecting with practices that have worked in the past that you may have let go of or that have shifted.
    • Reflect on past experiences and practices that have brought you clarity, inspiration, and inner peace. Are there rituals, mindfulness techniques, or self-care practices that have fallen by the wayside? Reconnect with these potent tools and integrate them back into your daily life to support your well-being and spiritual growth.
  • What mantra/affirmation/growth mindset shift can you adopt to support you moving forward?
    • Craft a mantra, affirmation, or positive mindset shift that resonates with your intentions and empowers you to overcome obstacles and manifest your dreams. Repeat this affirmation daily, allowing its uplifting energy to permeate your consciousness and reinforce your belief in your ability to create the life you desire.

By contemplating these questions during the Full Moon in Hasta Nakshatra, you can tap into the potent energy of transformation, healing, and manifestation, empowering yourself to embrace your highest potential and live a life of purpose, passion, and fulfillment.

May we honor this celestial event with reverence and gratitude, opening our hearts and minds to the transformative power of the cosmos. As we release the old and reveal the new, may we step boldly into the radiant light of our own divine essence, shining brightly as beacons of love, truth, and healing in the world.

In Gratitude,

Michelle
