The Moon

Night shift gift, a luminous bright doubloon in the heavens which‘ll arc low right across the western horizon tonight

Super Blue Moon Aug 30th, bet it rains
moons been cheeky this month,
the new moon was making a brief appearance at dusk and then vanishing under the horizon, slender temptress! & now she's still hanging about in the treetops, lingering around looking bulbous but still elusive

like a stripper teasing you with a stocking top “oh my god think I saw her thighs”

Spectacularly hued tonight, light-bulb argent mixed with light copper a lot like the example in the o.p

In at least 400 European caves such as Lascaux, Chauvet and Altamira, Upper Palaeolithic Homo sapiens groups drew, painted and engraved non-figurative signs from at least ~42,000 BP and figurative images (notably animals) from at least 37,000 BP. Since their discovery ~150 years ago, the purpose or meaning of European Upper Palaeolithic non-figurative signs has eluded researchers. Despite this, specialists assume that they were notational in some way. Using a database of images spanning the European Upper Palaeolithic, we suggest how three of the most frequently occurring signs—the line <|>, the dot <•>, and the <Y>—functioned as units of communication. We demonstrate that when found in close association with images of animals the line <|> and dot <•> constitute numbers denoting months, and form constituent parts of a local phenological/meteorological calendar beginning in spring and recording time from this point in lunar months.

More precisely, species-specific breeding cycles as they related to attuned lunar cycles, spotted by a complete amateur. Missed from early last year. How the fuck did he figure the lunar aspect? 9 months for humans so plenty of variety even within mammal species

Each image’s lunar ‘dots’ arent the first thought to arise. Contemporary life shifts and moves more along solar cycles and different perspectives of seasonality eg holidays, as opposed to using symbols of the moon’s phases in relation to species breeding cycles recorded both through symbolic thematics and learning said cycles. First thought shamanic transgressive journeys into the actual cave systems themselves, enchanting the world within a 3-tiered cosmos. Yet, you teach your young the cycles of the prey and the heavens first, surely, to survive as life was lethally short

1st holy communion was never as absorbing as lunar-focused hunting rites in the dark unknown distances below the surface of your light-filled world

The Moon. It's a big dusty ball that lights the night's sky. How does it do it? I didn't think dust could be shiny.

In honour of the great cheese sphere I open this new thread, in honour.

Traditional Full Moon Names:

Wolf Moon – January
Snow Moon – February
Worm Moon – March
Pink Moon – April
Flower Moon – May
Strawberry Moon – June
Buck Moon – July
Sturgeon Moon – August
Harvest Moon – September or October
Full Corn Moon (Harvest) – September
Hunter's Moon (Harvest) – October
Beaver Moon – November
Cold Moon – December

October’s Full Moon is the Hunter’s Moon. It is also called Travel Moon, Dying Grass Moon, and sometimes Blood Moon or Sanguine Moon.

Every three years, the October Full Moon is also the Harvest Moon. This particular name is given to the Full Moon which is closest to the September equinox, which is the start of fall in astronomy.

However, the astronomical seasons do not match up with the lunar month. Therefore, the month the Harvest Moon occurs in, varies. Most years, it is in September. However, every three years, it is in the month of October.

Hunter's moon is mentioned in several sources as the Anglo-Saxon name for the Full Moon of October. This is the month when the game is fattened, and it is time to start preparing for the coming winter. Traditionally, this included hunting, slaughtering and preserving meats for use in the coming winter months.

Me and the moon have a long relationship. As long as I can remember it always made me feel restless when it was full. Sometimes even a few days before and after. Tonight is no different. Urges to do reckless things come in soft but perceivable waves. Nothing too crazy, mind. As the night goes on, the feelings get a little more intense. But it's only ever subtle. Never anything near a narcotic effect or whatever. I've grown used to checking the moon phase when I get these feelings. So often they come on the exact day of a full moon. But how? And I know I'm not the only one. Magnetic forces? Joni Mitchell once warned "beware the power of moons." Why, Joni? What is it?

It's really easy to write it off as nonsense because it's the bloody moon and it only seems to effect some people. But from my own observations of my own self I've noticed changes before even knowing the moon phase. This happened a lot before I started to put 2+2 together. So I don't think it's just suggestion.

Weed aids a full night's sleep, so that's good. And I doubt I'll ever be cured of it. So I guess it's something I'll have to live with. Even though it can make sleep a little difficult, I love my relationship with the moon. One time in 2008 on my birthday, the moon was literally the biggest I ever saw it. Looked double it's usual size at least. Like it was leaning in and having a closer look at us. Cartoonishly big. And the surface had so much more detail. And what is that face thing? And we only ever see one side of it?!

And they went there once but can't get there again? And then destroyed all the tech? And Stanley Kubrik filmed the fake landing and then told us about it in The Shining?

How can such a seemingly innocuous ball hold so many secrets and inspire so many minds?

Here's to The Moon.
