AT THE TIME OF THE FULL MOON...
Speaking symbolically, and remembering that symbols always veil a
truth, it might be stated that, at the time of the full moon it is as
if a door were suddenly opened wide, which at other times stands
closed. Through that door, aspirants and disciples can contact
energies which are otherwise not easily available. Through that door,
approach can be made to Those Who guide the race and to truth and
reality, which at other times is not possible. Of this, all who stand
on either side of the door can avail themselves, and this will be so
increasingly.
At the time of the full moon festivals, the moon stands on the far
side of the earth, away from the sun. This leaves a full, direct and
unimpeded relation****p between the earth and the sun, the source of
our life, energy and consciousness, symbolic of the relation****p
between the human personality and the soul.
Each festival covers a special period of five days (two days
preceding, the day of the Festival, and the two following days), with
the climax on the day of the Festival itself, when women and men of
goodwill can cooperate much more effectively than at other times, in
meditation and through the direction of energy, with the spiritual
Hierarchy and those who stand behind the evolution of consciousness of
our planet.

Contact' by Alice A. Bailey, from

Mars (6th Ray) is the exoteric and esoteric ruler of Scorpio.
Scorpio provides "points of crisis" and "moments of reorientation."
The tests of Scorpio as they concern the readiness of the threefold
personality:
1. To reorient itself to the life of the soul, and later
2. To evidence readiness for initiation.
3. To demonstrate sensitivity to the Plan, thus becoming the one pointed
disciple in Sagittarius.
The 3 tests in Scorpio: (each has 3 parts, making the 9 headed Hydra)
1: *** (the relation of the pairs of opposites); physical comfort; money.
2: fear; hate; ambition.
3: pride; separativeness; cruelty.
The keynotes of this sign are: test, trial and triumph.
"Warrior I am and from the battle I emerge triumphant."
