At the Taurus Full Moon, the Moon is in the opposite sign of Scorpio in the lunar constellation Visakha. The Taurus Full Moon is therefore also called the Vaisakh or Wesak Full Moon. Since time immemorial, it has been celebrated in the Himalayas as the Vaisakh festival, and since Gautama Buddha as the festival of his enlightenment.
Every year in Aries, Sanat Kumara, the Planetary Logos, receives the Plan for the year as an impulse from higher circles. At the Vaisakh Full Moon, he passes it on via Gautama Buddha to the enlightened beings on the planet, whom we generally refer to as the Masters of Wisdom.
After intuitively receiving the annual Plan, the sages gradually send it to their disciples, who in turn transmit it to the advanced thinkers and leaders of humanity. Especially at the time of the Taurus Full Moon, we should align with it to receive a fresh dose of will energy for the work of goodwill.
The picture depicts a meditator whom I have designed with elements of an old Buddha statue. The head is imbued with the orange and golden yellow colours, from the photo of a sunrise, which extend beyond the shape of his body. They symbolise the Buddhic Plane of the Light of the Soul. Towards the top, they change to shades of blue and open up to a dark blue sphere, the Super-Soul or the Atmic Plane.
The round sphere surrounding the head in the background indicates the Vaisakh Full Moon, through which the energies are received. The meditator is focused on the Ajna center above the eyebrows. He contemplates the energy movements in his body, represented by the fiery center line, the Antahkarana. Energies rise up through the throat to the head, and energies are received through the head centres and transmitted downwards and into the environment.
