Wednesday, Jan 15th, 2014: Full Moon

Full Moon - EST, Wednesday * 15th January 2014 * 11:52:12 pm (EST)

From our moonwatcher friends 

===================================

Dear full moon friends,

The full moon will be on Thursday (or Wednesday for certain time zones), the first full moon in this new year 2014!

After all resolutions had already to withstand first temptations, and many have surely gone out the window by now, the question then arises: Why is it so difficult to change? First of all, the habit is an immensely powerful energy. Furthermore, every change harbors fear. So we are dealing with two giants: habit and fear. In order to tackle these you need two powers at least as big, namely faith (in yourself) and love (towards yourself). If you exercise this, you can change everything. Then there is no need for resolutions ...

The exact time of the next full moon is:
Thursday * 16th January 2014 * 05:52:12 am
Central European Time (CET)
Moon sign: Cancer 25° 07'
