Full Pink Moon Esbat

April’s Full Moon, Full Pink Moon, heralds the appearance of the moss pink, or wild ground phlox—one of the first spring flowers. It is also known as the Sprouting Grass Moon, the Egg Moon, Hare Moon, Seed Moon, and the Fish Moon, because this was the time that the shad swam upstream to spawn. -Farmer’s Almanac

The Pink Moon is the first full moon of spring.  The first Sunday following this full moon will be Easter Sunday.  As it is named, it is a time of new growth, fresh starts, and the bountiful joy of Spring.  The remembrance of the sacrifices taken to achieve and enjoy the newness.

Libra Moon Vs. Aries Sun

This Esbat is about learning to balance the energies of Community and Self.  Starting projects together and sharing ideas are a good way to achieve this.  Aries’ energy ignites fires and gives passion to people to start new ideas, but the cool energy of Libra encourages us to share those ideas and allow other people’s input.  Similar to Leo Vs. Aquarius, these can involve a lot of the same concepts but these energies are bout doing more: active sharing, and community projects with everyone involved.  The winter has thawed, the grass is growing.  Now is the time to start something new with friends.
