December | 2017 | Under The Blue Door

Moon vedic

“Ready to cut loose and try something new? If you have been feeling bogged down in your creative process or having trouble staying inspired, the super moon of Dec 3, 2017 can spark fresh ideas and place unexpected opportunities on your path. This is a full moon for lovers, artists, and all those who think out of the box, to stake a claim on freedom and self-expression.

In Vedic astrology, the full moon falls in the area of the sky known as Rohini and is symbolized by a bull pulling an overflowing cart of fruit. This full moon carries the abundance of earth and the promise of fulfillment. Rohiniis the divine feminine shakti that energizes all things to grow, literally and metaphorically.

Rohini means “Red Lady,” and is the moon’s favorite wife and muse. Her blissful influence gets the creative juices flowing and connects us to our uniqueness and originality. Rohini moon is especially inspiring for artists, entertainers and musicians. An aspect from romantic Venus makes this an ideal full moon for dating, reconnecting with loved ones and enjoying music and dance. Latent talents and forgotten passions could awaken at this time, if we are ready to take a step into uncertain territory. This could be the perfect moment to start a creative project, pick up a musical instrument, or try a new way of expressing yourself.

However, the influence of Mercury Retrograde may crimp this full moon’s style for some. Mercury is retrograde Dec 2 – 22. Well known to delay travel, slow down transactions, and cause misunderstandings, retrograde Mercury can ultimately improve and refine communication skill. This is a time to retrace steps, reconnect with old friends, and improve business and work strategies. Focused concentration and deep study is also supported at this time by the added influence of scrutinizing Saturn.

Stay open and flexible now and remember that important epiphanies are often had when things seem the most uncertain. Under the fertile light of Rohini full moon innovative solutions are around the corner and paths to growth and fulfillment can open in the month to come.”
