At the end of September Full Moon will shine in Uttara Bhadrapada Nakshatra - the star, which inspires us to look deep within and review the our foundations, or core beliefs on which we build our life. The entire fortnight leading up to it is sacred to Lord Ganesha, who helps us remove any obstacles which obstruct our minds - while the day before this Full Moon is known as Ananta Chaturdashi, sacred to Lord Ananta, the great serpent on which Lord Vishnu is reclining and who represents the limitless potential of our consciousness, once it’s freed from the shackles of the limited mind. While Moon will be enclosed by two retrograde grahas on both sides, it is a perfect time to review our past lessons, learn our mistakes and allow ourselves to drop the karmic luggage which has been holding us back. A beautiful time to introspect and meditate.

Yet, as Full Moon will be aspected this time also by Mars, who is partially combust and starving in the sign of Virgo, the upcoming days may also bring some volatile energy. We all may have tendency to speak and act more impulsively, especially when it comes to bringing the issues from the past or long suppressed emotions and judgements. At the same time, while receiving judgements, we may have tendency to immediately turn defensive or combative, rather than taking a moment to digest the feedback and see which parts of it are true and can help us to grow.
