As usual, the wearing of suitably celebratory celestial attire is encouraged in honor of the full Moon. Enjoy the supermoon, avoid starting any wars, and consider reading some Theodore Sturgeon.

Unlike the solar-dominated calendars of Christian (Western) patriarchy, the We’Moon looks at our experience through both eyes at once.

Last quarter: The moon has moved another quarter of the way around Earth, to the third quarter position. The sun's light is now shining on the other half of the visible face of the moon.The other two meteor showers peaking during this lunar cycle are predicted to display at most 3 visible meteors per hour, too few to be visible from our artificially lit urban areas. Evening Sky Highlights This animation shows the difference between a Moon at its closest point to Earth, when supermoons occur, and at its farthest. Distance to apogee and perigee vary by event.Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech The difference in height between the height of high tide and low tide is defined as a tidal range. The behavior of the tides is influenced by the orography and shape of the basins, size, and depth. Two to four tides can occur in one day. If there is one high and one low tide, we speak of diurnal tides, while if there are two high and two low tides, these are called semi-diurnal tides. During diurnal tides, the excursion is minimal, while for diurnal tides, the difference in level can also be considerable. It also depends on the height of the moon above the equator as a result of its inclined orbit. The sun also affects the tides, albeit less so than the moon, by attracting masses of water. The solar role is additive to the lunar one therefore, the respective geometry also influences the tides. In Numerology, the year 2025 corresponds with the number 9: Near Completion. What is near completion for you? For all sentient beings, and for Gaia? What are the “final steps” needing to be processed, digested, and worked through? What may need embellishment, bolstering, or balancing? How can we use the last moments inside this chrysalis to tune and refine the magic that will birth us into the future?

On Thanksgiving the mood is cheerful and brusque, but with a short fuse and a few socially awkward moments. Remember that connection matters so much more than the details as the Sun squares Saturn. Traditions can stabilize us and help us find our feet in a changing world. The point of this Sagittarian holiday is gratitude—not of the questionable American myth, but to be grateful for the harvest, for our choices, and for the warm souls in our lives. Work published in the datebook may also be included in We’Moon on the Wall and/or Greeting Cards, with additional terms and compensation.Wednesday night into Thursday morning, August 2 to 3, 2023, the planet Saturn will appear near the waning gibbous Moon. Saturn will be 7 degrees to the left of the Moon as they rise on the east-southeastern horizon (at 9:27 PM EDT) just 3 minutes after evening twilight ends. The Moon will reach its highest in the sky for the night (at 2:45 AM) with Saturn 5 degrees to the upper left. Saturn will be about 4 degrees to the upper right of the Moon by the time morning twilight begins (at 5:05 AM). Waning crescent: Less than half of the moon's face appears to be getting sunlight, and the amount is decreasing. In many traditional lunisolar and lunar calendars the full Moons fall on or near the middle of the lunar months. This full Moon is in the middle of the sixth month of the Chinese calendar, Av in the Hebrew calendar, and Muharram in the Islamic calendar. Muharram is the first month of the Islamic year and one of the four sacred months during which warfare is forbidden. Blue moon/supermoon coincidences are a lot rarer than either individual supermoons or Blue Moons. While a super blue moon could happen twice within the same month, they can also be separated by periods as long as 20 years, according to NASA. The space agency says the average time between Super Blue Moons is 10 years. The rare hybrid solar eclipse on April 20 wasboth an annular "ring of fire" solar eclipse and a transition into a total solar eclipse briefly over some parts of Earth. The annular effect was visible for just a few seconds in the Indian and Pacific oceans and isn't visible anywhere on land. A total eclipse was only be visible in three locations on land, Exmouth, Western Australia, Timor Leste and West Papua.

Moon Phases for Great Britain, 27 Nov 2023 – 19 Dec 2023

The Moon travels around our planet in an elliptical orbit, or an elongated circle, with Earth closer to one side of the ellipse. Each month, the Moon passes through the point closest to Earth (perigee) and the point farthest from Earth (apogee). When the Moon is at or near its closest point to Earth at the same time as it is full, it is called a “supermoon.” During this event, because the full moon is a little bit closer to us than usual, it appears especially large and bright in the sky.

The solar eye of heaven is apparent at the turning points in the Sun’s cycle. Friday evening, July 28, 2023, very low on the west-northwestern horizon, the bright star Regulus will appear just 0.14 degrees to the upper right of the planet Mercury. As evening twilight ends (at 9:30 PM EDT) the pair will be 0.5 degrees above the horizon and they will set 4 minutes later. Mars will appear to the upper left of the pair.
