On Thursday, July 10th, we experience a Full Moon in Sagittarius, within the Purva-Ashada Nakshatra—one of the most forceful and clarifying lunar mansions in Vedic astrology.

This episode explores why this full moon is so emotionally potent, artistically charged, and spiritually clarifying. The full moon always marks culmination, celebration, and emotional illumination—a moment when we can’t ignore what’s rising to the surface.

In this case, the light of the full moon shines in Purvashadha, a Venus-ruled nakshatra whose very name means “the undefeated.” It carries the force of water, the fierceness of truth, and the quiet determination of someone like Rosa Parks—a Purvashadha Ascendant—who simply said “no” to injustice and sparked a movement.

This nakshatra is symbolized by a winnowing basket, an agricultural tool that separates the wheat from the chaff. That’s what this moon is asking of you:

What’s real? What’s noise? What’s ready to be burned away so that your deeper truth can be heard?

You’ll also hear:

– Why Venus rules this full moon and how to use that to refine what you truly love

– What Apas, the water deity, teaches about emotional expression and purification

– How to work with the element of force (Ugra)—not aggressively, but creatively and consciously

– Why emotional rituals, music, journaling, and literal fire ceremonies are powerful tools this week

– A look at inspirational Purvashadha natives like James Hetfield and Trent Reznor, and how they express this burning, purifying energy through music

You’ll be invited to:

– Use the 80/20 principle in your emotional and creative life

– Identify what’s draining your energy and what fills your cup

– Filter through relationships, projects, and patterns that no longer serve

– Consider doing a burn ritual, journaling session, or emotional release practice
