A thread to highlight special events in the night sky - eclipses, comets, special moons.
Tonight, we welcome the Harvest or Hunter Moon - a supermoon.

I noticed the moon as I left my Daughters and mentioned that her Mam used to do a little curtsy, spin aound and cross herself? No idea why though?
I know that the sun is the God and the Moon is the Goddess in pagan beliefs?

It made some lovely patterns shining in the thinner clouds. Never actually got to see the harvest moon.
