The full moon of March 28 (11:48 am PT) is the brightest and biggest yet this year, and is shining an energetic light over the world. In India this is the auspicious full moon of Holi – the festival of colors – when brightly colored paints are thrown and bonfires are lit, symbolizing the burning of ill-will and resentment. Holi full moon empowers feelings of love, healing and forgiveness.
The Holi festival also celebrates the divine love of Radha and Krishna.
The full moon will be in the area of the sky known as Hasta Nakshatra in Vedic astrology. Symbolized by a hand, this Vedic lunar sign wields magical powers, and the ability to transform your ideas and dreams into reality.

Creative handicrafts, like cooking, drawing and sculpting, writing, as well as healing practices of hands (like Reiki), are all empowered by the light of this full moon.
This full moon heralds an important shift in consciousness. On April 5, the expansive planet of Jupiter will transit into mystical Aquarius. A collective power of healing and spiritual growth is gaining momentum in the year ahead.

Venus, the goddess of love, is aligned with this full moon, and at a pinnacle point in her fiery transformation between her Morning Star and Evening Star phases. This is a rite of passage in love, relationships, and finances as Venus enters her Evening Star phase, when more ease and flow can come into relationships. However, Evening Star Venus will be lost in the rays of the sun and invisible until May. Until then, focus on self-understanding. How could you integrate more true desire, self-respect and self-expression in your life now?
As I wrote in my previous blog, the warrior planet Mars is still with Rahu, the mouth of the shadow snake that causes eclipses. Social tensions and violence have increased this month, along with numerous tragic mass shootings. Rahu and Mars are a dangerous and shocking combination, so take a moment to pray for peace on this full moon, and avoid unnecessary conflict until April 13, when Mars enters sidereal Gemini.
