It symbolizes growth, renewal, and the strength to begin again. “It’s a reminder that we too are always evolving,” Rinhee shares. “Just like the antlers regenerate every year, we get the opportunity to restart and realign ourselves.”
This year’s Buck Moon coincides with Guru Purnima, making it extra special. Guru Purnima is celebrated to honor teachers, mentors, and guides—both spiritual and academic—who illuminate our path. “Whether you have a spiritual guru or not, the essence of the day is about acknowledging the guidance you’ve received in life,” Rinhee explains. “It’s a beautiful opportunity to express gratitude to those who have shaped your journey.”
According to spiritual practices, performing Satyanarayan Katha, graha shanti, and graha dosh nivaran puja on Guru Purnima is considered extremely auspicious. “A simple havan at home can also help bring peace and positive energy into your life,” she adds.
