Full Moon to fall on Christmas in my lifetime?
Christmas day I had a good get together with family I cooked for 2 days to prepare dinner for 7...glad it was successful now happy its over and done! Soon as it was dark I headed out to do something I love doing alone...
with my camera to see and record the Rare Christmas Full Moon! What I read is: this is the first moon to fall on Christmas day since the new 25,000 year cosmic cycle that began in 2012...remember the Mayan calendar thing? So there will be other magnificent celestial events occurring some we have no recorded history of!! Gosh makes me want to live forever...I really hate to miss the most awesome things that are coming!!

| more clouds moving over the moon It is a 19 year cycle...only we have not had one to actually fall on Christmas day since 1979 due to leap year moving the date around...We had some heavy cloud cover but then the sky brightened and I was so GLAD! |
I took a few long exposures of the moving clouds while I waited it was an amazing night. The stars were quite bright in the clearing patches..
We won't see another full moon fall on Christmas day until the year 2034...
Some of us will be around to see it some of us won't If I'm still here I will be 81 my Mom is 91 so it is possible...
But when you're 91 you are not too keen on going out to stand in the middle of the road at night...;O/ to shoot the moon...
I want to be one of the ones who does...
PEACE
