Nightmare Or Nirvana: Last Lunar Eclipse in Libra 2016

There is a sense of delight in the air, the melodies of spring birds, and comfortable air are all sure signs that the spring season will soon be here. The March 20, 2016, spring equinox confirms the spring season and within 7 days Easter will bring the children to play and adults to prayer. Perhaps there is some sort of uniqueness to this eclipse because it’s not a perfect eclipse. Some do not even call it a real eclipse as the moon will be gliding through the Earth’s shadow very quickly. Some may get lucky and see this if they are in Australia or East Asia. But how exciting will it be for those that see that beautiful reddish hue over the moon which many call the “Blood Moon.” Alternatively, we can refer to this moon, minus the eclipse, the traditional way as a Lenten Moon or Harvest moon; it really does not matter as long as we understand that the full moon, with or without the eclipse, always brings closures. Especially paired with an eclipse, it is bound to be a closer in a person’s life depending upon the aspect of the energy which it holds.It is a beautiful lunar eclipse, and blood moon, occurring a few days before Easter. As the full moon always brings natural endings, full moons are considered auspicious in the Hindu culture. On this full moon is also the Hindu holiday Holi Festival which delights and welcomes the spring season.
