Aftershocks

Wesak Moon

Sacred Encounter

Aftershocks

Have you noticed a huge energetic shift these past few weeks? Time

seems to be speeding up even more than " usual. " Earth changes are on

the rise. An ancient volcano explodes in Chile. Myanmar's delta

region is decimated by a cyclone. A massive earthquake rocks central

China. Killer tornadoes rip through the southern U.S., and a

mysterious sink hole opens in Texas. Food shortages. Rising oil

prices. The political scene is transforming before our eyes. World

markets are shaky, too, with all this volatility.

We live in times of extreme change, the crease period between world

ages. The Earth is shifting. Paradigms are shifting. The transition

is in full swing, and accelerating. The Hopi of North America call

this the Great Purification. The Mayan calendar links the

acceleration to the expansion of consciousness and the cosmos. The

energies of back-to-back Scorpio Moons, with Beltane in between,

amplify the effects. Everything's in flux. The energies of upheaval

and manifestation are equally powerful, accompanied by waves of

emotion.

The Moon is now waxing toward a rare second Scorpio Full Moon. The

alignment is exact on Monday, May 19. This is the festival of Wesak

in the Buddhist tradition, a holy time of healing and enlightenment.

The potential is enormous for rebirth, renewal, a new beginning. We

have a special opportunity to more fully embody our divinity, to

bring more peace to the planet.

The Moon in Scorpio opposes the Sun in Taurus, with the Earth

balanced in between, creating an energetic tension divinely designed

to catalyze miracles and breakthrough. The Scorpio Moon digs deep to

reveal and purify what's been hidden in the subconscious. In Taurus,

the Sun and Venus focus on the self, the Earth and this physical

existence. In our universe, the process of creation necessarily

involves destruction. A shamanic process of death and rebirth is

unfolding.

As the Wesak Moon waxes to full, we and Mother Earth are being

recalibrated to a higher frequency. Meditation, prayer, ritual and

healing are especially potent during this period. I hope you'll

reserve time each morning or evening to receive the divine, essence

energies and pray for all those so deeply affected by the recent

changes, holding the intent that relief and aid will reach them.

Wesak Moon

Imagine watching the Full Moon rise over the frosty peaks of the

Himalayas as you join with others gathered high in a mountain valley

to receive the frequencies of enlightened consciousness streaming

through the ascended realms to Earth.

In 1966, the Lama Govinda poetically described the scene:

" On this night a wondrous sight is seen by those who are present. The

Full Moon rises like a fiery dome over the icy crests of Mount

Kailash...Heaven and Earth are connected...projecting a flood of

light into the world of man. The Enlightened Ones and their retinue

are believed to descend on the rays of the moon...to bless the

faithful by their luminous presence. It is like a rite of

transcendental communion...a truly universal Mass... "

This is Wesak, sacred communion. In the milky glow of the Wesak Moon,

we grow in consciousness, grow in love. The lotus blooms within the

heart of humanity in this moment.

A new cycle is flowing into manifestation as the Moon waxes to full

this week. On the Full Moon in Scorpio/Taurus on May 19/20, we honor

the path of mastery each soul has accepted for this lifetime. We meet

on the etheric web, in an enchanted valley high in the Himalayas, to

embrace and embody Divine Consciousness. Enter the temple of

Shambala, meeting point of Heaven and Earth, for guidance,

initiation, enlightenment.

Wesak is one of the holiest days for Buddhists around the world, a

celebration of the birth, death and enlightenment of the Buddha. In

esoteric teachings, Wesak is a focal point for the ascended realms

and incarnated initiates to join in communion, linking Heaven and

Earth for the benefit of all beings.

Please consider joining with those around the world who will be

anchoring higher-dimensional frequencies for Earth's ascension on

this most powerful lunation. The following web page has excellent

suggestions for observing Wesak including preparation, a Wesak legend

visualization, meditation and rituals:

The Lunation

Exact timing of the Scorpio Full Moon follows. Observance is

appropriate throughout the period leading up to and just after the

Full Moon as the spiritual energy culminates, then disseminates,

through the lunar portal.

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 occurred in the first degree of Scorpio. The

second Wesak Moon happens May 19/20 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. In shamanic Scorpio, death and

rebirth are the vehicle of transformation.

In Tibetan Buddhism, Wesak celebrates the birth, death and

enlightenment of the Buddha. Again and again, death is spiritually

linked with new life, the great cycle of existence. In 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. This is

an ideal time for prayer and meditation in service to the collective.

in months I didn't wake up at night and slept for eight hours in a

enormous power in me. " - Erna
