The Victorious Full Moon

A Full Moon in Purva Ashada & Guru Purnima: The Unconquered Waters and the Light Within
July 10, 2025 | Moon in Sagittarius, Purva Ashada Nakshatra | Guru Purnima
Two weeks after Ardra’s cleansing storm, the Full Moon rises into Purva Ashada, the "invincible one"—a nakshatra ruled by Apah, the goddess of cosmic waters. These are not wild tides, but blessed waters—the kind that nourish, purify, and initiate.
This Moon does not shout. It does not rush. It floats, fully present, on the surface of the sacred.
It asks:
What have you learned by living?
And to whom do you bow in gratitude for that learning?
Because this is not only a Full Moon—it is also Guru Purnima, one of the most luminous holy days of the Vedic year.
Guru Purnima: The Heart of the Full Moon
Guru means “the remover of darkness.” It is a title given to those who offer light—not just in classrooms or temples, but in every form:
The mother who taught you patience.
The tree that held your sorrow.
The breath that returned you to yourself.
On this day, we honor all guides—teachers, ancestors, spirit allies, the Earth herself. But most of all, we honor the inner teacher, the one who whispers through stillness and dreams, who always points you back to your center.
You do not need to be part of any tradition to receive the blessing of this day. You need only to pause, to feel, and to offer your gratitude in your own sacred way.
Practices for the Full Moon & Guru Purnima
1. A Simple Earth Altar
Create a small altar using items from the land—stones, petals, herbs, a candle. Place it beneath the moonlight or beside a window.
Say aloud: “To all the teachers who walk with me—thank you. I see you. I feel you. I honor you.”
2. Offer Water to the Moon
Fill a small bowl with water. Stand in the moonlight. Offer the water with both hands as a gesture of thanks.
You might say: “To the wisdom that lives in me, and the light that guides me, I offer this.”
3. Sit in Nature, Let Her Speak
Even five minutes beside a tree, in a garden, or beneath the stars. Close your eyes. Breathe. Receive.
4. Journal: Your Lineage of Light
Write down the names, moments, and insights that have shaped you.
Begin with: “Today, I remember the light that found me when I needed it most…”
5. Act in Gratitude
Feed the birds. Sing to the sky. Plant something. Give quietly. Let your reverence ripple outward.
Energetic Themes of this Moon
Ripening Clarity – What was murky at the New Moon may now crystallize. You may feel a renewed sense of purpose, direction, or devotion.
Truth-Telling – Sagittarius invites honesty—not just outward, but inward. Let yourself name what you truly long for.
Sacred Confidence – Purva Ashada grants inner victory—not through battle, but through alignment. You are not here to prove. You are here to embody.
Cosmic Support from the Transits
Saturn in Pisces deepens your spiritual practice. It’s not about doing more—it’s about being truer.
Venus in Taurus reminds you to return to beauty, nourishment, and the love that lives in your body.
Mercury in Cancer softens communication. Speak with tenderness. Listen to the feelings between the words.
Jupiter in Gemini expands your curiosity. Let yourself wonder. Let your beliefs evolve.
Mars + Ketu in Leo burn away what no longer serves your soul’s radiance. Let your fire refine you.
Rahu in Aquarius whispers of a future that is more interconnected, more authentic, more aligned. Listen closely.
A Final Blessing for This Full Moon & Guru Purnima
May you remember that you are the continuation
of every kind word, every hard-earned truth,

forever learning,
forever lighting the way.
