Driving home yesterday evening the nearly full moon was spectacular. The multicolors of pale blue, wispy clouds and cold temps combined to make the sky look like the surface of a frozen pond, lit up by the moon shining on it. I don't think I have ever seen it look like that.
Tonight through early tomorrow is the lunar eclipse of a full moon, tomorrow is Solstice. I am trying to decide between staying up very late to see the eclipse and getting up very early to attend Drumming up the Sun. I can't do both, I have to go to work and have to get a few hours of sleep somehow. For the Solstice I will be attending a small gathering of women doing a guided meditation. What will you be doing?
Here is some info about the eclipse, including times in different areas from SpaceRef.
I'm facing the same choice! I decided to go with watching the eclipse; it's the first on the Solstice in 500 years--we'll all still be singing up the sun next year. :) Plus, I will be up by sunrise, and while it won't be the same as being out in nature with a group, I can still sing up the sun on my own while getting ready.
ReplyDeleteI will be up before dawn with my husband, so when he leaves for work, I will welcome the sun myself :).
