The Significance of the Moon to Yoga  Close
If you are familiar with ashtanga yoga, you've probably been cautioned against practicing yoga at the time of a full or new moon.

This has little to do with the popular notion of higher incidences of accidents and birthings during full moons, but more to do with our internal energies at these times.

A full moon is the product of the sun and moon at opposite ends of each other, and the earth fixed between. This positioning causes both the sun and moon to gravitate to the earth, resulting in the pulling of tides in bodies of water. Alternately, a new moon occurs when both the sun and moon are in conjunction.

Iyengar Yoga

Iyengar Yoga uses a methodical approach to yoga poses, focusing on correct alignment. Each pose is typically held for a longer period of time, allowing for greater relaxation. To enable the students to find comfort in each pose a variety of props are used, including straps, blocks, bolsters and chairs. B.K.S. Iyengar founded this style of yoga with the idea that the poses should be accessible to everybody. Iyengar Yoga has been known to profoundly rehabilitate injuries and relieve sickness.
