Tomorrow night:
For Pagans the full moon and Winter Solstice are powerful,
spiritual times. This year the two have converged in an even more dynamic way.
Not only will there be a full moon on Winter Solstice, but there will also be
a total eclipse!
There were full moons on Winter Solstice in 1980 and 1999 but the
moon has not been eclipsed on winter solstice for almost four centuries. The
last time this occurred, according to NASA, was in 1638 and it won’t happen
again until 2094. The eclipse in 2094, however, won’t be visible to the
western hemisphere.
Don’t be confused by dates by looking for this rare occurrence on
the night of the solstice, December 21st. The eclipse will occur in the early
morning hours. The eclipse will begin a little after 1:00 AM in the morning on
December 21st. For exact times look here.
The powerful symbology of the divine masculine (the sun) covering
and converging with the divine feminine (the moon) on the Winter Solstice needs
no explanation. It speaks volumes of how to celebrate this rare and powerful
celestial convergence. If you are already feeling the pull as this convergence
grows nearer it likely is NOT your imagination! The Goddess as Luna has drawn
her lover, the God as Sol, to her on this momentous occasion. In these hard
times of a bitter winter and an even more bitter economy let us all pray this
is a sign of fruitfulness in the year to come.
Gather with friends or lovers and witness this beautiful and
awe-inspiring spectacle. Dress warm and stay warm.
Blessings to all...
