This is a favorable day to work with chakras, because they are open. We must be clean physically, emotionally and mentally before working with our chakras, therefore all kinds of cleansing practices for the body and mind are recommended today. The 28th lunar day is also favorable for working with dreams. While dreaming one may receive spiritual insight and understand their life’s purpose. This process happens each lunar month, regardless of whether we recognize it or not. In order to work with dreams we have to be aware that we are dreaming. However, we can not actually operate consciously while dreaming; usually, when we try to interfere, the dream stops and we wake up. To gain control over your dreams as a beginner, try to look at your hands right before going to sleep; once you realize you are dreaming, bring back the image of your palms in front of you.
