Savitur, the “golden handed,” Vedic god of the rising sun, rules over Hasta. All kinds of creative handicrafts (like cooking, drawing and sculpting) and healing practices of hands (likeReiki) are empowered by the light of this full moon.

Keep an open mind, you may find solutions to problems in unexpected ways now. The direct aspect of Mercury retrograde onto this full moon could put a reflective backspin on ideas and plans, as delays and miscommunications are common. Mercury will also be fully combust on April 1, encouraging rerouting and sudden epiphanies.

Take heed, this full moon comes with a tough aspect from willful Mars and critical Saturn that peaks in a planetary war (graha yuddha) from April 1- 3.   Be especially patient and easy on yourself and others, and steer clear of unnecessary complications. Mars and Saturn are like fire and oil, and may ignite feelings of stress, particularly for Sagittarius and those who are in dasha cycles of Saturn or Mars.

On this Hasta full moon, remember that worry and doubt only dim the light of imagination, so don’t get hung up on limitations. Set your intention to hold your dream in your hands and visualize its manifestation now.”
