#LoyKrathong2567 Been there Share to stories 🪷Let's float Krathong and bathe in the holy water of the full moon, ask for forgiveness from the Goddess of the River and bathe in the moon for good fortune at Wat Samakkhi Khunawas, Ban Kai District, Rayong Province. 🛕Wat Samakkhi Khunawas, led by Luang Phi Phuchong, has organized the full moon bathing ceremony for the 14th year. It is a ritual based on the traditional beliefs of Thai people. It is believed that the moon has a story that Eastern people, including Thai people, have given importance to since the past. In terms of science, the moon has the effect of causing the tides to rise and fall. In astrology, the orbit of the moon affects destiny, meaning auspicious energy. On the night of the full moon, especially Loy Krathong, the moon will shine brightly, showing great energy that eliminates darkness in the world. In ancient times, in order to worship the moon and receive this energy, they scooped up water with moonlight to bathe or drink because they believed that it was auspicious for them. 🙏🙏🙏 #Been there sharetostories #WanSamakkhiKhunawas #BathingHolyWaterFullMoon #BathingHolyWater
