Wesak approaches, the most sacred of Buddhist holy days celebrating the birth, death and enlightenment of the Buddha. The Wesak Moon rises during the Sun's transit of Taurus. The Moon, in the sign of Scorpio, opposes the Sun, creating a focal point for the energies of enlightenment to reach the Earth. This year we have two Full Moons in Scorpio with the Beltane cross-quarter gateway in between. This is a rare and luminous opportunity to manifest and create, to receive and radiate love. Our thoughts and intent are amplified exponentially during this time. At Beltane, we celebrate the flowering of new life in spring. A point of balance in the Earth's journey around the Sun, Beltane is a festival of renewal, fertility, sensuality and delight. Wesak is a time of ceremony and communion with the masters. Beltane is a celebration of personal blessings and the joy of community. Open to enlightenment. Bask in the wonder and awe of this creation. Embody divine love-light. Meditate. Pray. Bless. Create with intent. Offer your gifts in service to the Divine. Join with others in community. Give. Release. And receive. Namaste. Magic and Miracles Imagine riding a magic carpet these next few weeks as celestial energies transport you to unseen dimensions and delights you've barely dreamed of. Scorpio Moons in both April and May create a rare "double Wesak" with Beltane in between. A meteor shower blesses the Beltane Cross-Quarter Gateway and Taurus New Moon in early May. From the Full Moon in April to the Full Moon in May, we are engaged in a shamanic dance of death and rebirth. Magic is afoot. This series of alignments creates a transformational portal for the healing of outdated beliefs and behaviors that no longer serve your evolution. Miraculous changes happen easily within this energy. A complete reconfiguration is possible.
This year we have two Full Moons in Scorpio, which means, essentially, two Wesak Moons. With two Full Moons in the same sign, the impact is magnified. The late Torkum Saraydarian wrote: "The first full moon challenges our personality qualities. The second full moon challenges our soul qualities. The period in between can be a tremendously rich period of growth, expansion, healing and turning our life around to become more purposeful and soul directed." Full Moons illuminate what's been held in the unconscious. In Scorpio, the Moon delves into the subconscious longings, hopes, dreams and fears that shape our reality. What are you dreaming about? Are you living your highest potential? Where are you holding back? What needs to be let go? Allow the inflowing cosmic energies to illuminate, heal and reconfigure.
Both the Sun and Mercury are transiting Taurus, the first earth sign in the zodiac. It's a perfect time to communicate about values, what we cherish about our planet, how we can bring balance to her systems. Celebrate the Earth by relishing the tastes, the sights, the scents, the sounds and sensations of this physical world. Spend time in nature, on the land, in a forest. Indulge in a spring hike, a walk on the beach or a dip in the ocean. Connect with the heartbeat of the Mother with drumming. Earth Day reminds us to make a practice of honoring Mother Earth every day. Celebrate with ceremony and ritual. Conserve and protect natural resources. Explore renewable energy sources. Eat organic. Use natural products for the home and body. Create sustainable community. Contribute to organizations working to balance humanity's relationship with the Earth. Bless Mother Earth as she so richly blesses us.
The natural world awakens. One of the four "cross-squarters" of the solar year, Beltane marks the mid-point between the Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice. We celebrate Beltane with community festivals of renewal, joy and hope. Traditionally observed on May 1 and sometimes referred to as May Day, Beltane is the pagan celebration of spring and the flowering of life. The maypole represents the merging of masculine and feminine, the god and goddess whose union creates life. We dance the maypole and jump the Beltane fire in celebration of the infinite blessings bestowed on our home, our family and our world. Astronomically, Beltane arrives when the Sun reaches 15 degrees Taurus on May 5. Venus in the Underworld - May 3-July 16
This passage is the mid-point between a pair of transits of Venus in June 2004 and June 2012, when the planet passes visibly across the face of the Sun. This historic alignment coincides with the ending of the Mayan calendar. To read more about the Transit of Venus in 2004-2012, visit http://www.starpriestess.com/articles_venus.html Saturn Direct - May 2 Saturn's been moving westward among the stars in "retrograde" motion for several months. Now he reverses and returns to normal or "regular" motion (eastward among the stars). When the Reality Planet shifts back into direct motion, it's time to move forward. Saturn's retrograde journey began December 19, so we've had more than four months to reconfigure the structures of our lives to better reflect our evolving consciousness. What has changed for you since then? In Virgo, Saturn guides us to tend to the details of life. Projects stalled since mid-December get the green light now.
The Sun and Moon's union in Taurus happens this year on festive Cinco de Mayo, and the heavens respond with a meteor display. At the New Moon we plant seeds that will bloom and bear fruit at a future Full Moon. In Taurus, we focus on the Earth, physical resources and values. Venus, goddess of love and beauty, joins the festivities in her home sign of Taurus, gracing us with abundance. The Eta Aquarid meteor shower is the first of two showers that occur each year as the Earth passes through dust released by Halley's Comet. The dark sky of the New Moon provides an ideal backdrop for viewing the display. Best visibility is in the pre-dawn hours of May 4, 5 and 6 in the east-southeast sky. Visibility is much better in southern latitudes, with 40 to 50 "shooting stars" per hour. The Eta Aquarids are named after a star in the constellation Aquarius, where the meteors appear to originate. The brotherly love of Aquarius reigns with fire in the sky. Jupiter Retrograde - May 9-September 7/8
Scorpio/Taurus Wesak Full Moon - May 19/20 - 7:11 PM PDT May 19; 10:11 PM EDT May 19; 3:11 AM GMT May 20 On April 20, a Full Moon occurs in the first degree of Scorpio. The second Wesak Moon happens 29 days later, in the last degree of Scorpio. Life as we know it could change radically between Point A and Point B. In the relentlessly transformative sign of Scorpio, the Moon's rays dig deep to illuminate what's been held in the subconscious, both individually and collectively. With two Full Moons in Scorpio, this can be a highly emotional time. In Scorpio, death and rebirth are the vehicle of transformation. Tears cascade as we grieve the loss of what has been and make way for the new. In Tibetan Buddhism, Wesak celebrates the birth, death and enlightenment of the Buddha. Clearly, Tibet will continue to be in the world spotlight as Buddhists and many others around the world celebrate the lunar holy day. In the esoteric teachings rooted in Buddhist and Vedic traditions, Wesak Festival is the second of the three great spring lunar festivals, a focal point for humanity to receive the cosmic energies of enlightenment. Wesak Meditation
Wesak is traditionally a time for planetary servers to gather in meditation, creating a vessel to receive the powerful spiritual energies directed to Earth through the gateway of Shambala. If you'd like to participate, alone or in a group, just reserve this time for ritual, prayer and meditation. Timing is best as the Moon waxes to full this Saturday night, and again on May 19/20. The effects will be magnified many times. Imagine connecting with the gathering of spiritual masters in a sacred valley high in the Himalayas as the Wesak Full Moon rises to illuminate the hearts and minds of all beings. Focus on receiving the energies of enlightenment in service to the Divine Plan. Allow the incoming cosmic frequencies to infuse your consciousness, moving on the breath to fill all the spaces of your being, all the cells of your body. Sink this energy lower and lower, deep into Mother Earth. You are a cosmic vessel as you radiate this Divine Love throughout all dimensions of time and space.

Journey into the heart of the lotus.
Scorpio/Taurus Wesak Full Moon - April 20 - 6:25 AM EDT; 11:25 PM GMT - The Full Moon rises on Saturday night, with the exact alignmentt on Sunday morning
Earth Day - April 22
Beltane - May 1-5
Our sister planet shines as the morning star only a little while longer before making her way into the western sky. If you rise early, you'll notice Venus gradually becoming fainter as she catches up to the Sun, which keeps us from seeing her from Earth. The period when Venus is "invisible" is her descent into the underworld, a shamanic journey through death and rebirth. She'll re-emerge in July as the evening star.
Taurus New Moon - May 5 - 8:18 AM EDT; 3:18 PM GMT
A week after Father Saturn turns direct, Brother Jupiter stations retrograde. He'll pass back through the middle degrees of Capricorn for four months, guiding us to go within to connect with the Inner Teacher. Jupiter affects us personally and globally. Issues and opportunities that surfaced in February, March and April are ripe for renegotiation now. Expansive forces take a breather as energies are reversed. This is a time to complete existing plans and projects rather than expand them or launch new ones. On a personal level, this is an ideal time for introspection and contemplation of the greater issues in life. What is your purpose? What teachings and traditions are important to you now? How do the outer expressions of your life reflect your inner truth? What resources do you need to support your plans? Pay attention to messages in dreams and meditation. Inner guidance will be subtle. Jupiter also has to do with our relationships. Which ones need to be reconsidered, released or reworked?
When planets and stars align, energetic portals are created that allow for the transmisison of higher dimensional frequencies to reach the Earth. At Wesak, the buddhic energies of enlightenment are especially accessible to humanity.
Special rates on shamanic sessions are available for Cosmic Time subscribers to help you receive and anchor the cosmic frequencies accessible at this time. Core Shamanism helps you open to new possiblities, clear subconscious debris, expand your consciousness, focus your intent and anchor the higher-dimensional frequencies amplified by key planetary alignments.
