Friday the 13th Full Moon

Posted by Lynne on June 10, 2014, 10:32 pm

The full moon later this week will be the last to fall on a Friday the 13th until 2049 (when I would be 100 years old and not likely to see it). It will also be a Honey Moon--one of the biggest and brightest moons this year (and, according to folklore, a good day to get married...followed of course by the honeymoon).

Does anyone else in La Manz want to gather to view it? Where? (Wedding optional.)

Good thing that we are in Mexico, where it is Tuesdeay the 13th that is unlucky, not Friday the 13th.

In the Norse country of old, Friday was Freya's day. She had equal status with Oden originally, could have her pick of fallen warriors in her heaven, and was Goddess over gold, pigs, and fish. There are 13 moons in a year, which made 13 a special number. A combination of Freya's day and 13 was terrific....that is until the conquerors came along with a new god and had to make Friday the 13th. unlucky....hmmmm? Maybe it's time to change our minds again?

And my ethereal black cat, The Divine Ms. Beautiful, would have nine lives in El Norte but only seven here in Mexico. Since no one replied to my gathering idea, I shall watch the full moon with her, and nothing bad will happen. ;-)

Well I would love to join you, Lynne, but I will be a couple of countries away in Toronto. I will watch the honey moon and dream of all my beautiful friends in La Manz (and elsewhere)and my former sweet black cat, Ninja.

Yet another full moon has come and gone, Lynne, and STILL we haven't made our exchange.
You were keenly on my mind though. Perhaps in November. :o)

Yes, not a full moon goes by that I don't think of you! In the interest of facilitating our exchange, my hair is now green-free, orange-free and all of the scraggly ends are gone. ;-)
