In the Theosophical tradition (particularly the work of Alice Bailey and the Lucis Trust), each full moon is a time of heightened spiritual energy — a window when the connection between humanity and the spiritual hierarchy is strongest. Monthly full moon meditations are the core practice of the Theosophical calendar.
The Three Major Festivals
Easter Festival
Full Moon in Aries — Apr 2
The Festival of the Risen Christ. Resurrection energy. The force of restoration. The living Christ principle active in all humanity.
Wesak Festival
Full Moon in Taurus — May 1
The most powerful full moon of the year. The Buddha's blessing pours through the Wesak Valley. Union of Eastern and Western spiritual streams.
Festival of Goodwill
Full Moon in Gemini — May 30
World Invocation Day. The Festival of Humanity. The spiritual energy received at Easter and Wesak is distributed to humanity.
