THE EFFECTS OF THE FULL MOON

The planets exert a tremendous influence upon our lives, but the changing phases of the moon have an even greater impact on the flow of energy in the Cosmos. In the Cosmos, two strong powers affect the earth - the power of the Sun and that of the Moon. The Sun symbolises consciousness and the Moon symbolises feelings and emotions. Feelings are a thousand times stronger than consciousness. It is these energies that change and move the world. Read More

Chakras

Chakras are those energy centres through which the Cosmic energy flows into the human body. The practice of “Yoga in Daily Life” can awaken these centres, which are manifest in each and every person. The Chakras have a significant influence on several levels of our being including physical, astral and spiritual. Read More

The Effects of the Full Moon

Full Moon_newsletter

 Why do many people fall into depression on the full moon and how to overcome that?

 Those who become depressed are unable to allow their feelings and energy to flow outward. Their energy is blocked, therefore they feel nervous, touchy and despondent. However, precisely on the day of the full moon there exists a great opportunity to inwardly purify. The strong energy that streams into us on these days can release energy blockages and one’s energy can be restored to its natural flow. This functions like a drain or a channel where much rubbish has accumulated and become blocked. In order to clean it, one takes a hose and flushes out the drain with a strong jet of water to sweep away all refuse. In just this way the energy of the moon can have the same effect on blocked feelings and complexes. When we strengthen this effect by meditation, repetition of Mantra and fasting we purify our inner functions (Antahkarana) - our mind, intellect, consciousness and ego.
