Clarity About the Three Full Moon Festivals of Spring

by Patricia Cota-Robles

Today, April 25, 2013, is the Full Moon Wesak Festival which is the 2nd Full Moon Festival of Spring. Even though Spring is only occurring in the Northern Hemisphere, the Light that bathes the Planet during these powerful Celestial alignments blesses ALL Life evolving on this sweet Earth. The Festival of Wesak has been celebrated on the Taurus Full Moon for millennia. This year the influx of Light from the Wesak Full Moon is being greatly enhanced by a Lunar Eclipse. The Full Moon occurs at 12:47 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time and the Lunar Eclipse immediately follows at 1:07 P.M. PDT.

The influx of Light involving the Three Full Moon Festivals of Spring begins five days before the actual Full Moons and expand for five days following the Full Moons, so there is plenty of time to assimilate these Gifts of Light from On High.

I know there is some confusion about whether the Wesak Full Moon is the Full Moon of Taurus or the Full Moon of May, but the Company of Heaven has given us some important information that will clear the confusion and help us to experience all of the Gifts that bless Humanity and the Earth during the Three Full Moon Festivals of Spring. As a note of clarity, when I refer to the Full Moon of Aries, the Full Moon of Taurus, and the Full Moon of Gemini, I am talking about the Sun Cycles in which the Full Moons of Spring occur. Please take the following information into the Flame of Truth pulsating in the Divinity of your heart and allow your I AM Presence to reveal to you the Truth of this sacred knowledge.

Springtime begins in the Northern Hemisphere with the Vernal or Spring Equinox. This takes place March 21st or 22nd every year and initiates us into the embrace of the Sun Cycle of Aries. The energies that bathe the Planet during the Celestial alignment of the Equinox pulsate with the Resurrection Flame. This Gift from our Father-Mother God is a resplendent Sacred Fire that has a Mother of Pearl radiance. The Resurrection Flame is the frequency of vibration that awakens the hibernating animals and resurrects the Nature Kingdom back to life after the respite of the long winter months. It is not by chance that the pageant of Passover and Easter took place during the time of year when the Resurrection Flame was in full force.

The first Full Moon following the Spring Equinox is celebrated as the Passover Full Moon. Easter is the first Sunday following the first Full Moon after the Spring Equinox. That Full Moon is always the Full Moon in the Sun Cycle of Aries. This is the First Full Moon Festival of Spring and it is the celebration of the Path of Divine Love that was revealed to Humanity through The Christ. Every year during this Full Moon Festival, Jesus The Christ, as well as the exponents of Christ Consciousness and the Path of Divine Love throughout Infinity, bathe the Planet with Divine Love and the sacred knowledge revealing the Oneness of ALL Life. This annual influx of Divine Love and Christ Consciousness has been occurring for millennia and has been instrumental in Humanity’s awakening process.

The Second Full Moon Festival of Spring is the Wesak Festival. This is the Full Moon that occurs in the Sun Cycle of Taurus. During this Celestial alignment the Christ and the Buddha join forces to bless the Earth and Humanity with their sacred Gifts. The Christ Light is the embodiment of Divine Love within which every particle of Life lives, moves, breathes, and has its Being. The Buddha Light is the Divine Wisdom, the Enlightenment, that emanates from the Love of God. The Wesak Full Moon Festival is designed to bring the Love of Christ and the Wisdom of Buddha into a sacred space of Oneness within the hearts and minds of Humanity.

During the Wesak Full Moon people around the world focus on the Wisdom and Enlightenment of Buddhic Consciousness brought to Earth by Gautama Buddha. Every year thousands of pilgrims travel to the Wesak Valley deep in the Himalaya Mountains of Tibet during the Full Moon of Taurus to hold the sacred space for the return and blessings of the Buddha.

The Third Full Moon Festival of Spring is celebrated during the Full Moon that occurs in the Sun Cycle of Gemini. This Festival is known as The Goodwill Festival of Humanity. During this Full Moon, the Divine Love of Christ and the Divine Wisdom of Buddha, which have been building in momentum since the two previous Full Moon Festivals, are intensified and greatly expanded through the Mental and Emotional Strata of Earth. This influx of Light enhances Humanitys ability to unify our hearts and minds with the Divine Heart and Mind of our Father-Mother God. This year the Good Will Festival of Humanity will take place during the Full Moon in Gemini on May 25, 2013. This Full Moon will also be greatly enhanced by a Lunar Eclipse.

On rare occasions there will be two Full Moons during one Sun Cycle. This happens because a Full Moon occurs every 28 days and the Sun Cycles last between 28 and 31 days depending on which months are involved in each cycle. When a second Full Moon occurs in a Sun Cycle it is known as a Blue Moon and it is considered a wonderful bonus. A Blue Moon greatly enhances the activities of Light that were initiated with the first Full Moon of that particular Sun Cycle.

The reason there is so much confusion about the timing of the Wesak Festival is because of some decisions that were made in 1950 at the first Conference of the World Fellowship of Buddhists which was held in Sri Lanka. During that conference the Buddhists decided to make the Full Moon in the Month of May a Public Holiday to honor Buddha. Since the Wesak Festival focuses on Buddha many people began combining the Wesak Festival with the Public Holiday during the Full Moon of May. Unfortunately, that decision disregarded the other two, very important, Full Moon Festivals of Spring.

In Truth, anytime people open their hearts and invoke the blessings of Buddha, he will be there in his full regal Presence. So whether or not the Wesak Festival falls on the Full Moon of May in a particular year, Buddha will bless all who turn their attention to him and invoke the Light of God. The reason the Beings of Light in the Realms of Illumined Truth are reiterating the information about the Three Full Moon Festivals of Spring is not to dispute our present belief systems, but to enhance what we know so we can benefit from ALL of the opportunities we are given throughout the year to add to the Light of the world. This knowledge is intended to accelerate our Ascension process. The Three Full Moon Festivals of Spring are among the most powerful opportunities given to us through Earth’s annual Celestial alignments.

Please do not let these opportunities pass you by. During these powerful Full Moon Festivals, listen to your heart. Invoke the Light of God and focus on the patterns of perfection you want to cocreate with our Father-Mother God on the recently Birthed New Earth we are all abiding upon.

When you are in a state of Listening Grace, feel the Gratitude pouring forth from our Father-Mother God and the Company of Heaven in appreciation of your willingness to add to the Light of the World. You are Blessed beyond your knowing!
