Got up this morning 5:30 am. (exact eclipse time in this locality).
Saw the moon in the sky from the kitchen window.
It was red !

total fullmoon eclipses are great for spiritual practices. A mantra practiced at this time is worth hundreds of mantras..

Svoboda tells what his guru said:

"Eclipses are excellent for people like you and me because their gravitational effects multiply the effect of our sadhana. If you do one hundred repetitions of your mantra during an eclipse it is like doing one hundred thousand repetitions on an ordinary day.

Fullmoon eclipses can draw forth intense emotions sometimes....
I like the astroking quote from Clover, insightful....
here is more from one of my favourite astrologers Julia Swanson (Neovedic astrologer)

Quote:
As above, so below…as within, so without, thus the Sun and Moon correspond to our higher chakras (cakras), which are also being activated, as in rebooted, during eclipses which stimulate not only our sublime energetic systems but also our endocrine and neurological systems. The pituitary “master endocrine gland” of the body is connected to the Moon per yogic astrology (and to “the third eye” ajna chakra), and produces a series of hormones that either control most of the other glands in the body or have a direct effect on specific organs. The pineal gland is the “seat of the soul” and is connected to the Sun according to yogic astrology (as well as to the Sahasrara “crown” chakra), and regulates mood, sleep, and energy levels. During eclipses, the electromagnetic shields go down allowing higher cosmic energies to come in and reset all these systems. So you can see why it is such a sensitive time and why wise spiritual masters suggest we use it to our advantage.
