From Amelia Paradise: Mystery of Tu B'Av— Embracing the Paradox

Two weeks ago, the new moon of Rosh Chodesh Av gentled us inward for reflexive tenderness and preparation. New moon is the lunar resting time; new moon shines inward with a resonance of finding the divine through the infinite journey inside. Now, we have the counterbalancing full moon of Tu B'Av reflecting the sun's brightness. Full moon is the lunar reflective time; full moon shines outward with the reverberation of finding the divine through the infinite journey of connection.
