The Full Moon In Capricorn

According to Vedic astrology, the Full Moon takes place in Capricorn in the lunar mansion of Uttarashadha Nakshatra. Because the Moon is close to Saturn (which is in retrograde motion), there may be depressions and downturns in our personal lives and in the global economy.

Uttarashadha is the nakshatra of truthfulness. This nakshatra is intolerant of behind-the-scene influences and deception. Under the influence of this nakshatra, people will attract lots of life challenges where their truthfulness and authenticity will be tested. The spiritual lesson that Uttarashadha nakshatra brings to us is learning how to see through illusions in order to reveal the true nature of life events.

Under the influence of Uttarashadha Nakshatra, some people will be motivated to fight for what they believe is right. Also, during this time, your commitment to your ideas and moral principles may get tested. Therefore, it’s important to stay firm in your beliefs!

In Uttarashadha, the wisdom and integrity received in Sagittarius are directed to the sign of Capricorn – the field of changing and improving the surrounding world and humanity. Therefore, this Nakshatra puts a big responsibility on humanity, especially, on the world leaders. If the principles that humanity follows are false, then the changes that will be brought to the world will be wrong. In this case, there’s a danger of creating structures that will bind people and put more limitations on them, instead of setting them free.

This nakshatra can also bring health-related issues like weakness of lymphatic vessels, the knees, skin, ears, urinary system, typhoid, dysentery, eczema, and allergies.

The main advice for this Full Moon is to stay patient and take your emotions under control. You may face lots of injustice, manipulations, and lies, however, stay focused on your truth and your moral principles, don’t compromise your authenticity in order to fit in.

How to Work With the Full Moon Energy?

If we do not live in the rhythm of the lunar cycle, we most likely will feel mood swings and fatigue during the Full Moon time. Moreover, our emotional and even physical condition may deteriorate. Therefore, it is very important to learn to live in harmony with the Moon, especially when it’s at the peak of its activity.

Spend this Full Moon time period doing some internal work. Don’t let your energy run rampant with trying to make things happen. Time spent in silence, prayer, and meditation will be karmically rewarded. No matter what’s happening around you, stay calm, grounded, and centered.

For harmonizing the influence of the Moon on our lives, we can perform Moon practices and adjust our lifestyle to the Moon’s vibrations.

Spiritual Practices For the Full Thunder Moon 2021

#1: Chanting Ganesh Mantra

The symbol of Uttarashadha is an elephant tusk. The Elephant’s tusk associates this lunar mansion with the Hindu God Ganesh. Lord Ganesh is the one-tusked elephant-headed god who is invoked to bless new beginnings and is prayed to remove obstacles from one’s path or endeavor. Therefore, chanting the Ganesh mantra during this full moon will help you to remove any obstacles from your path to success and abundance.

Chant the mantra 108 times.

This practice is especially recommended for those who have a bad relationship with their mothers or elderly women, and also for those who have mood swings.

  2. In the morning, drink that Moon water on an empty stomach. Tell your gratitude to the Moon. Chant the Moon mantra: OM CHANDRAYA NAMAHA (108 times).

#3: Full Moon Mantra Chanting For Attracting Abundance

The Bottom Line

The retrograde motion of Saturn makes this full moon a depressive and emotional period. Stay in touch with your feelings. Be patient with yourself and with others. Take every obstacle with gratitude for teaching you an important lesson. Remember that we are personally responsible for our own karma. By focusing on your truthfulness and spiritual principles you will lay a firm foundation for your good karma and positive changes in life.
