Each day we begin our practice with repetition of surya namaskara a and b (sun salutations) as a reminder of our place in the cosmos and our aim as yogis to connect to the earth and all its many beings. Ashtanga is a form of “hatha” yoga which means sun and moon denoting a pair of opposites that provide us with direction and purpose where from we move and breathe. As Ashtangis we honor that relationship to the planets and may recognize the internal impact of the new and full moon’s gravitational effect and take rest on those days. Mysore practitioners are encouraged to take rest on moon days — morning Mysore will not be held.
