There Goes The Moon...





Get ready, people. A total lunar eclipse approaches!


December 10, 2011 is the eclipse of the moon, where the moon passes behind the earth so the earth will block the rays of the sun, making it nearly impossible to see the moon. The moon will darken and turn red, like an intergalactic sunset, and disappear completely. This can only happen when the sun, moon and earth are in perfect alignment.  


Through history, this amazing natural phenomenon was seen as a bad omen, and myths and superstitions abound, and while I don't believe the crops will fail or children will be born with hare-lips, I do believe the lunar eclipse throws chaos around, making us all a little more irrational and emotional than usual...  and can mess with everything on the homefront. 


The lunar eclipse is a time of beginnings, endings, exposure and major changes. Relationships are pushed under the microscope. Emotions run high, restlessness is contagious, pressure mounts and energy swirls... so get ready! The countdown is on! Sixteen days to go. HAPPY ECLIPSE EVERYONE!
