Purnama, or Full Moon, refers to the lunar phase when the Moon is fully illuminated as seen from Earth. This occurs approximately once a month, when the Earth is positioned between the Sun and the Moon. During this phase, the Moon appears as a bright, round disk in the night sky, often inspiring various cultural and religious celebrations. In many cultures, including those in Hinduism and Buddhism, Purnama holds significant spiritual meaning. It is often associated with rituals, festivals, and gatherings, as people celebrate the beauty and symbolism of the full Moon. The brightness of Purnama is also linked to themes of enlightenment and reflection.
