lunar eclipse : we love the moon!
The space race was an important influence in my youth. My family was glued to the news about astronauts, cosmonauts, and proposed missions. I can remember watching the landing on the moon. I love space, the cosmos, cosmology, and heavenly bodies.
Last night it was the last lunar eclipse until 2010. It was freezing cold. I luckily sat in my loft looking up at it through the skylight. I watched as the planet on which I reside placed itself between the sun and the moon. The shadow being cast to block our moon.
Too cool.

Thich Nhat Hanh said that we see a half moon or a sliver of moon, but we know the moon is always whole. Similarly, there are times when we feel less or diminished, but we, like the moon, are always whole.
Thanks Lissa. Isn’t that the wonder we find in watching the eclipse? I now recognize that it is because I am joyful and sad at the same time.
