Tonight is supposed to be the biggest full moon of 2009.  So, when the sun sets... go outside and take a peek.  It's supposed to be pretty awesome. Think I'll step outside and have a look.
I don't know what you've heard, none of it is factual, but it's all true.

We saw it on our way home tonight; much oohing and aaahing. The wisp of cloud across its face created a lovely scene.

It certainly is big and bright! And chasing right along behind Orion...

It's crystal clear here, a perfect night to be outside the city, in an oak grove, dancing around a really big fire!  LOL

(and it's Saturday, also... why am I not doing this??)

Oh, I don't know... if the fire were big enough, or I had a partner, maybe!!!  LOL

It's in the high 30's tonight here, not cold enough to actually lose anything...

She was gorgeous last night. All regal wearing her cloud robes, in her starry kingdom.

Clear skies, 2 degrees below zero, lots of stars out, and a beautiful moon last night!  Thanks for posting it, I hadn't known, but made sure to take a look.

This weekend's full Moon is the biggest and brightest of 2009. It's a "perigee Moon" as much as 50,000 km closer to Earth than other full Moons we'll see later this year. Perigee moonlight shining through icy winter air can produce beautiful halos, coronas, moondogs and other atmospheric optics phenomena.

We grilled out last night and watched the moon rise over the Jordan Lake Dam (here in NC)....a giant orb slipping in and out of the cloud bands.  Amazing!   The next two nights are still wonderful opportunities to reap all the benefits of her fullness!

Snow Moon, Cold Moon, Quiet Moon abide,
Let protection and strength grow inside,
Inanna, Sarasvati, Hera and Sinn,
Sew new beginnings deep within.

I did see it and it was magnificent, though I wasn't aware it was perigee.  Quite lovely all the same!
