Full Moon in Hasta Nakshatra 3/31 at 1:37 pm Irish time, 8:37 am EST. Hasta is located entirely within the sign of Virgo and is ruled by Savitar, the Sun God. Hasta means hand and the shakti of this Nakshatra is sthapanya agama, which means to place in your hand that which you desire. This Nakshatra is all about action and getting what you want. Virgo is ruled by Mercury and the Moon rules Hasta so there is a more refined mind here and a desire to experience the higher mind. I am traveling solo to the Sacred Valley of Bru Na Boinne today, the abode of the principle goddesses and gods of the ancient pantheon, the very place where the goddesses and gods were created. Bru is a spirit house, a home for the Sidhe in their many manifestations as goddesses and gods, literally spirit home for the goddesses and gods. Newgrange is a great womblike mound that symbolizes the Mother Goddess Boanne or Bo, impregnated each year by a beam of light from from the primary deity Grianan Mor, the Sun. These are known as the great astronomical temples of the Sidhe. This is celebrated on the winter solstice every year at dawn when the sun shines directly from one end of the mound straight through to the middle. It lasts for only 17minutes. These Neolithic structures date back 5000 years, making them older than the Great Pyramids of Egypt and Stonehendge. I will also journey the Hill of Tara, seat of the High Kings, the Tuatha Da Danann, the magical tribe of the goddess Danu, where I will bask in the stone carving of what is thought to be the earliest Sheela-na-gig (Goddess of Fertility) in Ireland. I will be writing more on this later. I am pleased to know that the Sun God Savitar will be guiding the day. It has taken 7 journeys to this island to finally arrive at Bru Na Boinne ๐ฎ๐๐ I have journeyed many sacred valleys all over the world but this is my own, the one I belong to. No creams today, back at it next full moon๐๐ผ๐ท starwheelastrology
