Winter Solstice Lunar Eclipse

Yesterday evening Mr. CFP drove me and the Buddha dog to the park for a little walk. I almost caused a heart attack and/or accident when I yelled out "Look at that!!!!" as I first viewed the full moon rising over the city.

In Colorado, the beginnings of the eclipse took place about 11:30 p.m.

I slept for about an hour and a half before getting up to watch.

We put a blanket on the sleeping garden bed and, lying on our backs, we witnessed the most astonishing show.  

 

I couldn't help but think about how, even though we know it's not true, we on this planet live, not only individually, but collectively, as though we are the center of the universe, .  

You and I are a part of one celestial body in a universe beyond imagination.  

We are as beautiful as this rusty red moon, as sacred as every planet and star, and yet, we are barely a fleeting breath within the whole miracle of it all.

As The Light Moves In

I'll be up tonight - from about 11:30 p.m., Mountain Time, until about 3:00 a.m. 

I plan to attend the great performance of the lunar eclipse (and maybe let my inner coyote howl a little).  I'll also allow my Tibetan bowl to soak up some extraordinary moon energy.

Before the full eclipse begins, I'm going to leap and hop on my Moon Shadow.





Then during the eclipse, I plan to meditate and pray.  Are you going to be up watching the eclipse tonight? 

If so, I'll meet ya there!
