The Full Moon rises in Ardra on January 3rd, a star of depth, devotion, and drive. Ardra is a future-oriented nakshatra that carries both a tendency to overthink and the power to place in your hands that which you seek.
The Full Moon of Ardra channels the energy of clearing as it connects to the vast presence of retrograde Jupiter, forming Gaja Kesari Yoga, the Elephant and Lion. Setting off a fortnight governed by a powerful presence, opening pathways for newness in our lives.
Opposite to the Moon and Jupiter, Venus, the Sun, Mercury, and Mars form a stellium in Sagittarius, fueling passionate pursuits while inviting us to examine the value and meaning of even the smallest things and to use the energy to expand on that. The communication between Jupiter and Mercury grants a gift of Vāk, the gift of empowered speech into manifestation, something not to be overlooked through the 13th.
This fiery gathering in Sagittarius also carries the risk of fierce opposition, conflict, and overzealousness, making this an especially testing time for those in relationships. The key is finding balance between passion and perspective.
Rudra’s Cleansing Storm
As Rudra’s energy dominates for the next two weeks, we are met with a force meant to make way for new growth, breaking open our hearts to create expansiveness within that will naturally generate flow in our lives.
An Invitation to Transform
This is a cycle where our karma is accelerated. We are invited to dance in a transcendental space, supported by the parivartana between Jupiter and Mercury, a mutual conversation between wisdom and intellect, expansion and communication.
